How to override all link effects?

Time:06-03

So I'm trying to edit the Theme of our store on Shopify. I'm doing it in css.liquid under Asset.

Anyway, what I'm precisely doing is I'm trying to override the effect of a link hover (I'm assuming that it is on the theme). Here's a sample of it: https://codepen.io/jstn/pen/mdoOZJ

I've added the following HTML code below:

<a href="#" >Test</a>

and on CSS I've added the following:

a.a1:hover{
        transition: none;
    }

I want to remove those animated underlines when you hover over the links. Is there a way to do this?

Thank you so much in advance! I appreciate it!

body,html {
  margin: 0;
  font: bold 14px/1.4 'Open Sans', arial, sans-serif;
  background: #000;
}
ul { 
  margin: 150px auto 0; 
  padding: 0; 
  list-style: none; 
  display: table;
  width: 600px;
  text-align: center;
}
li { 
  display: table-cell; 
  position: relative; 
  padding: 15px 0;
}
a {
  color: #fff;
  text-transform: uppercase;
  text-decoration: none;
  letter-spacing: 0.15em;
  
  display: inline-block;
  padding: 15px 20px;
  position: relative;
}
a:after {    
  background: none repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;
  bottom: 0;
  content: "";
  display: block;
  height: 2px;
  left: 50%;
  position: absolute;
  background: #fff;
  transition: width 0.3s ease 0s, left 0.3s ease 0s;
  width: 0;
}
a:hover:after { 
  width: 100%; 
  left: 0; 
}
@media screen and (max-height: 300px) {
    ul {
        margin-top: 40px;
    }
}
<ul>
  <li><a href="#">About</a></li>
  <li><a href="#">Portfolio</a></li>
  <li><a href="#">Blog</a></li>
  <li><a href="#">Contact</a></li>
</ul>

The underline is being created with the a:after pseudo-element. To override it, this should suffice:

a.a1:hover:after {
    display: none !important;
}

Try This

HTML

<ul >
  <li><a href="#">About</a></li>
  <li><a href="#">Portfolio</a></li>
  <li><a href="#">Blog</a></li>
  <li><a href="#">Contact</a></li>
</ul>

CSS

body,html {
  margin: 0;
  font: bold 14px/1.4 'Open Sans', arial, sans-serif;
  background: #000;
}
ul { 
  margin: 150px auto 0; 
  padding: 0; 
  list-style: none; 
  display: table;
  width: 600px;
  text-align: center;
}
li { 
  display: table-cell; 
  position: relative; 
  padding: 15px 0;
}
a {
  color: #fff;
  text-transform: uppercase;
  text-decoration: none;
  letter-spacing: 0.15em;
  
  display: inline-block;
  padding: 15px 20px;
  position: relative;
}
a:after {    
  background: none repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;
  bottom: 0;
  content: "";
  display: block;
  height: 2px;
  left: 50%;
  position: absolute;
  background: #fff;
  transition: width 0.3s ease 0s, left 0.3s ease 0s;
  width: 0;
}
a:hover:after { 
  width: 100%; 
  left: 0; 
}
.demo a:hover:after{
    width: 0;   
  left: 50%;
}
@media screen and (max-height: 300px) {
    ul {
        margin-top: 40px;
    }
}

So the transition is caused due to the transition on pseudo element a:after. To change this behaviour just set transition: none; on a:after

Here's what I mean:

body,html {
  margin: 0;
  font: bold 14px/1.4 'Open Sans', arial, sans-serif;
  background: #000;
}
ul { 
  margin: 150px auto 0; 
  padding: 0; 
  list-style: none; 
  display: table;
  width: 600px;
  text-align: center;
}
li { 
  display: table-cell; 
  position: relative; 
  padding: 15px 0;
}
a {
  color: #fff;
  text-transform: uppercase;
  text-decoration: none;
  letter-spacing: 0.15em;
  
  display: inline-block;
  padding: 15px 20px;
  position: relative;
}
a:after {    
  background: none repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;
  bottom: 0;
  content: "";
  display: inline-block;
  height: 2px;
  left: 50%;
  position: absolute;
  background: #fff;
  transition: none;
  width: 0;
}
a:hover:after { 
  width: 100%; 
  left: 0; 
}
@media screen and (max-height: 300px) {
    ul {
        margin-top: 40px;
    }
}
<ul>
  <li><a href="#">About</a></li>
  <li><a href="#">Portfolio</a></li>
  <li><a href="#">Blog</a></li>
  <li><a href="#">Contact</a></li>
</ul>
