[kean]

This was lost during merge of the release branch. Makes sure the color is again blue – standard for links on the web.

I'm not sure this is the correct fix – the CSS from the server already handles this, what we should probably be doing is just removing the override from this CSS file and relying on the remote one?

I'm not sure this is the correct fix – the CSS from the server already handles this, what we should probably be doing is just removing the override from this CSS file and relying on the remote one?

The colors are controlled by the app and its Reading Preferences. Here's another related PR: #25391 that demonstrates the issues related to the CSS provided by the server. The following override in the CSS vended by the server needs to eventually be removed, but probably only after the apps ship.

We probably need to give this a bit more thought, because the default style should be green (per the decisions made as part of Automattic/wp-calypso#107138) but the others themes should definitely not be.

Version 26.9 has now entered code-freeze, so the milestone of this PR has been updated to 27.0.
