Excerpt link color

for my client's site, we want to change the color of links in Excerpt text for gold to blue.

I have looked at all of the Colors > Section Themes setting and I don't see any options for Links in Summary blocks. Is there a custom CSS code that I can drop in?

Found a solution right after I posted

/* This section controls the color of links in Excerpts in any Summary layout*/
.summary-excerpt a {
   color: #2D4977 !important;
}

I'm so confused!

If I put the code above into the site-wide Custom CSS panel, it works just fine. But if I put it into the Advanced code pane of a specific page it DOESN'T work. Furthermore, similar (but different) code injecting into the Home page header DOES work but is canceled out if I put conflicting code back into the site-wide panel.

I am sure I'm missing something simple but I just can't figure it out.

Let's take this one first. When you put the code in Page Settings > Advanced > Page Header Code Injection did you wrap it in a <style> tag?

<style>

  /* This section controls the color of links in Excerpts in any Summary layout */
  
  .summary-excerpt a {
  
    color: #2D4977 !important;
    
    }
    
  </style>

That's it! I knew it was something small and easy to overlook.

Thanks!
