It is possible to change the text color of an individual content item title, which serves as a link on the Lessons tab. For example, you may want to color code all your quizzes red and all your drop boxes green.

To change the link color:

Select the Lessons tab. If you are adding a new item, select the Add Content link in the toolbar, then select a content type. If you are changing the link color for an existing content item, click the Edit button beneath the item.

In the Title field, type

<font color="color">Title</font>

where the color can be red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet, cyan, or magenta. Many more possibilities exist, but may not be supported on all browsers. Instead of Title, substitute your name for the link, such as "Quiz 1" or "Lesson 1."
