How to remove underlining when a link is hovered over for certain links?

HTML

<div class = "shared_link_post_container">
    <a id="{{post.status_id}}_shared_link_img" href="{{post.link}}" target="_blank">
        <img src="{{post.picture}}">
    </a>
    <a id="{{post.status_id}}_shared_link_text" class="shared_link_text" href="{{post.link}}" target="_blank">
        <div id="{{post.status_id}}_clickable_text_box" class="clickable_text_box">
            <br>
            <span class="shared_link_name">{{post.name}}</span>
            <br>
            <span class="unlinked shared_link_caption">{{post.caption}}</span>
            <br>
            <br>
            <span class="unlinked shared_link_description">{{post.description}}</span>
        </div>
    </a>
</div>

I want the links with the class unlinked to not have the underline when a link is hovered over. I tried:

CSS

.unlinked {
    color: gray;
    font-weight: normal;
    text-decoration: none;
}

This doesn't seem to work, mainly because my unlinked class should be a class. However, I don't want to remove the underlining for all my links, just the unlinked class.

Use the below code:

DEMO JSFIDDLE

.unlinked {
     display: inline-block;
     color: gray;
     font-weight: normal;
     text-decoration: underline;
}

/* For hover condition */
.unlinked:hover {
     text-decoration: none;
}

Turn your spans into block level elements and then to this:

.shared_link_name {
  display: inline-block;
  text-decoration: underline;
}
.shared_link_name:hover {
  text-decoration: none;
}
