Custom Cursor on a Text Link

Is there a way to set a custom cursor for a link (to replace the hand)?

The Wix Studio custom cursors work for sections and elements just fine, but if I set a link on one of the elements (ie. text box) then the cursor reverts to the hand for the link.

I have been trying with CSS also and get the same results as above.

.customlinkcursor {
    cursor: url('https://static.wixstatic.com/shapes/5cf42c_76add09e308f4cbe83ba61c000604331.svg') 40 40, auto !important;
}

Unfortunately, Wix Studio doesn’t currently allow overriding the default hand cursor for links on elements like text boxes. While custom cursors work for sections and general elements, they don’t have control over the link behavior.

However, there is a feature request for this functionality on the Wix website: . You can vote for this feature request

SOLVED:

The below code works for a button with a link or a shape or image, but it does not work for a text link.

I kept the text (in a max-width container) and placed a shape over the text with transparency set to 0%. The page link is on the shape, not the text.

.customlinkcursor>* {
    cursor: url(https://static.wixstatic.com/shapes/5cf42c_bec396ac80bf4f9892bf143ef85a864d.svg) 30 30, auto !important;
}
