Set up the global colors for the site at Theme Options > Colors.

Custom Global Colors #

This is a new tool designed to simplify color management for your site. Custom Global Colors appear in the list of dynamic colors for all color pickers inside Impreza settings and elements. Thus, changing the Custom Global Colors will automatically apply to all color pickers and elements using these colors site-wide.

Example of Color Scheme values

Color Scheme #

Color Scheme is a combination of pre-defined colors. Some of those are used by default by most elements. The other part is optional and might not be used in a site's design (see details below).

Impreza has pre-defined color schemes that you can apply by clicking the Color Schemes button.

Click on the color scheme applies its colors, replacing previous values from all relevant color pickers. You can also customize the colors and save those as a new color scheme.

The color scheme consists of 49 color pickers broken down into 6 sections.

This pre-defined set of color pickers (color variables) was used before the Custom Global Colors implementation and might be simplified in future updates.

All these colors are available as dynamic colors (similar to Custom Global Colors) that you can apply inside the color pickers of all elements and theme settings. If some colors are not filled (left empty), then they are not displayed in the list of dynamic colors, which can improve usability.

Header Colors #

The colors of this section are applied by default to the Main Area and Bottom Area of a new header you create, and to a Menu element inside the header.

The Browser Toolbar color only applies to the toolbar's background in browsers that support this feature.

When you edit the header, you can rewrite the colors for Main and Bottom Areas and Menu using relevant settings. Thus, colors from the Header Colors section are optional; you can leave their values empty.

Alternate Header Colors #

The colors of this section are applied by default to the Top Area of a new header you create.

When you edit the header, you can rewrite the colors for the Top Area using relevant settings. Thus, colors from the Alternate Header Colors section are optional; you can leave their values empty.
