### Bug description

For revealjs formatted presentation, the color of links and the page numbers in the footer are not controlled as expected by the CSS variable `$linkColor`.  

Expected behavior:
`$linkColor` and `$linkColorHover` should apply to links in the footer and the page numbers

Observed behavior:
Footer link color is changed with a different CSS variable called `$link-color`
Page number color is not affected by `$link-color` or `$linkColor`, but is affected by `$linkColorHover`
