Not sure if this is the right place for this: I'm wondering how to make the color of a word in a sentence be the link color of the wiki, I don't want to link it to get the link color, I want to make it the color of a link automatically (so that if I change the color of the links on the wiki again, I don't have to change the color manually to correlate with the wiki link color). I have this: <sup>''(<span style="color: var(--theme-link-color);"><abbr title="Back-up this information with a sourced reference!">cite a source!</abbr></span>)''</sup>, which will produce this ^{(cite a source!)}, and I want to have the color of that be my wiki link color without needing to link it. - LegitPLLGirl (talk) 07:20, 13 June 2022 (UTC)

CSS variables don't work inline, but you can use wiki CSS to apply the color to a class which you can add to the <abbr> tag or import Dev Wiki's ThemeColorClasses which create those classes for you.
