To prevent links on your mobile site from appearing in a blue box when clicked, you can use CSS to style the link's appearance. Here's how you can achieve this in Webflow:

  1. Open your Webflow project and navigate to the page or element where the link is located.
  2. Select the element containing the link or the link itself by clicking on it.
  3. In the right-hand sidebar, click on the "Styles" tab to access the element's properties.
  4. Scroll down to the "Typography" section and click on the link's style.
  5. In the "Typography" panel that opens, locate the "Text Decoration" property.
  6. By default, this property may be set to "Underline." To remove the blue box effect, change it to "None."

That's it! The link on your mobile site will no longer appear in a blue box when clicked. Remember to publish or preview your site to see the changes in action.

Additional Tip: If you want to style the link's appearance when it's in different states (e.g., hover, active), you can use the ":hover" and ":active" pseudo-classes in CSS to define the desired styles.

Example CSS code snippet:

a {  text-decoration: none;  color: #000000;  /* Change the color to your preference */}a:hover {  text-decoration: underline;}a:active {  text-decoration: none;  color: #ff0000;  /* Change the color to your preference */}

These styles will remove the blue box effect and allow you to customize the appearance of the link in different states.
