Buttons - visited link state colour

,

Is there a recommended visited link state for buttons?

For example , if using Brand Dark (dark blue) buttons and the text visited colour (purple), there is poor colour contrast - or should the the link text colour remain white?

Hi @Cath, thanks for your post! The visited states for buttons should retain their original text colour to ensure colour contrast is maintained. Only text links should take on the text visited colour.

Thanks @amy.howard!

Would you also recommend to retain the white visited text links in the footer as this also has a dark background?

Hi @Cath Yep that’s correct :+1: If the text is using Text Light due to being on a dark background, then the visited text link colour should remain Text Light.
