Can I change the color of a link using the code view option in my email?
You are able to change the color of a link without manually modifying the HTML code by clicking on the Edit option of the block containing the link. If this option is not desirable, you can go into the HTML coder view and change it by following these steps:

Note: This requires working knowledge of HTML and could result in undesirable changes if not done properly.
To change the color of a link using the Code View option:
  1. Locate the URL code that you want to update.
  2. Update the HTML code inside the <a href> or link tag by using the style attribute (#FF0000 = red),
    e.g. Your link text will look like this: (This is only an example, you can replace the FF0000 or red with the hexadecimal code of your chosen color or color name respectively.)
    <a href="xyz">mycompanyname.com</a>
    After inserting the style tag, your code should look like this:
    <font color=red><a href="xyz" style="color:#FF0000">mycompanyname.com</a></font>
    OR you can also write it like this:
    <a href="xyz"><font color=red>mycompanyname.com</font></a>
  3. Click on Save & Close.
  4. Click Save to save block.
