after changing the anchor elements to green here:
a { color: #6ab47b; }
The nav anchor elements for "Portfolio" "About" and "Contact" won't turn white even when I place the
nav a, nav a: visited { color: #fff; }
at the end of my CSS.
Here is the respective section in the html. Maybe I missed something here?
<nav> <ul> <li><a href="portfolio.html">Portfolio</a></li> <li><a href="about.html">About</a></li> <li><a href="contact.html">Contact</a></li> </ul> </nav>

8,048 PointsSorry, didn't realize this didn't post under the same video. It's the "Use Classes in CSS" under "Customizing Color and Fonts" in the "How to Make a Website" series. Figured it out. It was the space between "nav a: visited" that was causing the issue. Thanks.

The space between "nav a:" and "visited" is breaking the CSS rule. Remove it and now your code should work properly.
