How can I remove the highlight on my 'Continue Shopping' link?

Shopify Discussion

Topic summary

A user is experiencing an unwanted highlight/background color on their cart’s “Continue Shopping” link when customers add products.

Solutions Proposed:

Two support teams offered different approaches:

  • StoreSurgeon: Suggested adding CSS code to the bottom of base.css file to make the background transparent:
.cart-notification__links .button-label {
  background-color: transparent !important;
}
  • GemPages: Recommended inserting code into the theme’s theme.liquid file before the </head> tag, with step-by-step instructions provided.

Current Status:

Another user (Dhirsch) reported encountering an error when attempting to implement one of the solutions, suggesting the fix may need refinement. The original poster has not yet confirmed which solution worked or if the issue is resolved.

Hi!

I am attaching a screenshot of what the “Continue Shopping” link looks like when a customer adds a product to the cart. Can someone please help me remove the highlighter on that link?

Thanks,

Parul
