Aurora: Manage site colors
You can manage all the colors used on your site from the Theme editor's color settings page. Open your Account menu and go to Designer > Theme > Colors.
You can define the colors for the following:
Primary community colors
You can configure Primary community colors by hovering your cursor over the color you want to change and clicking Edit (pencil icon).
- Primary accent: Set the accent color used across the community. It is used in areas of the content editor, tags, Inbox (unread message indicator), various form elements, icons, and buttons, etc.
- Primary text: Set the color used for most of the text in your community (posts, replies, comments).
- Page background: Set the color used as the background for your community pages.
Note: Aurora Theme editor also provides a grayscale color range.
Additional colors
You can add your own colors to your theme’s color palette. When you add new colors, they are selectable from color pickers in Theme and on page templates. To add a new color, click Add color, enter the color's hex code, and click Save.
Content type icons
Each community content type (Forum, Blog, Knowledge Base, Idea, Event, and Group) has a distinct color for its icon. You can edit these colors to match your brand colors. To select a new icon color, hover your cursor over the one you want to change and click Edit (pencil icon).
Default values for content type icon colors are provided.
Alert Messages
Each community alert message type (Information, Success, Warning, Danger) uses a different color to indicate its purpose and importance. To select a new alert message color, hover your cursor over the one you want to change and click Edit (pencil icon).
Default values for different alert message colors are provided.
Reset colors to default values
To reset the colors to the system defaults, click Reset Colors to Defaults in the side panel.
Important: Resetting colors reverts all the settings to their system defaults, not the settings you saved previously.
