I have a button and in it I have an svg image (defined in css) and some text. I’m trying to change the color of both the text and the svg on hover and active states of the button, but so far I’m only able to change the svg or the text.. This is the code in html:
<section class="header1 cid-uoclpABLMG" id="nosotros">
<div class="mbr-section-btn mt-3 ctowa">
<a class="btn btn-default" href="https://wa.me/5218448699192?text=some%20text" target="_blank">
<span class="fa-brands--whatsapp-square"></span>
<span> Contacto WhatsApp</span>
</a>
</div>
</section>
And this is the CSS for the svgs:
.fa-brands--whatsapp-square {
display: inline-block;
width: 2.63rem;
height: 3rem;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-size: 100% 100%;

}
And the CSS for the button:
#nosotros .btn, .filter-button {
font-size: 18px;
border: 1px solid #FF0000;
border-radius: 5px;
text-align: center;
color: #FF0000;
margin-bottom: 30px;
}
#nosotros .btn:hover, .filter-button:hover {
font-size: 18px;
border: 1px solid #FFF;
border-radius: 5px;
text-align: center;
color: #ffffff;
background-color: #FF0000;
}
#nosotros .btn:active, .btn-default:active .filter-button:active {
background-color: #FFA500;
color: white;
}
Thanks in advance,

Might be easier to use a modern Web Component, no JS required with a declarative shadowDOM
I will leave the CSS fine tuning to you
The hover pseudo selector need to be on the parent/the anchor element. Now, I don’t know what the button should look like, but you could use
inline-flex
to align the two<span>
elements.Btw. reduce you CSS so that you only specify the properties that should change on hover/active.
