How can I change the color of links that are outside of the Wiki? I've changed all the link colors but these remain the default colour ...

Ah sorry, I didn't mean to post this in the Extensions section. Here is my example.

http://beywiki.com/index.php/Main_Page

Look at the article updates table. Those links are orange, I set them at that colour. They link to other Wiki pages.

Then see the Forums table. Those links are the browser's default link color; they link outside of the Wiki. How can I set their colour?

Open file gumax_link_navigation.css, check content section, see if that helps...

I tried many changes but external link colour is unaffected. Viewing the source of my wiki says the class is "external text", but I can't find such a class.

Surely you must know how to do this, please help.

Some default color is still from main.css, check both main.css and gumax_template.css to see if you can find the tag the you saw by viewing source page, if you cannot find them, then make a new one in one of the css files.
