WordPress Child Theme Issue

I have created a child theme for the theme Enfold. I wanted it to inherit all the settings of the parent theme; mostly it did after a lot of work.

I cannot get the link or hover colors to change. This is in the theme settings.

See the attached images. On the Parent styling, note under "Main Content Heading" the A Link and A Hovered link are gray.

On the Child styling, they are a red & blue shade.

Those links are links on the General Styling pages. I guessed of you clicked them they would let things be changed. Nothing happens if you click on them.

I can put in overriding CSS in the child custom css if necessary; I'm not sure how to do that (in CSS).

I can provide a wp-admin login for the Child Theme (in a private way) if someone can help.

Thanks

Ishaan Rawat,

That worked for the links. I also need it for submit buttons, sorry, I don't know the css for that.

Thanks!
I played around & got the button color to work.

I see now the necessity of the !important. The button color did NOT work without it.

Thanks!
