Color selection problems

[brandscaptain]

Hi Flexform,

First of all this is a beautiful theme, really well built with lots of options! Great design and very user-friendly!

However, I’m very confused on how to change colors. For instance when I’m inside the Impact Text + Button widget, I can’t seem to select the colors I’m looking for. The problem is that lot’s of them are preselected and they don’t match my theme. Also some basic ones like black and white are missing. Finally there’s only on accent color to pick in this menu ( I would except you to be able to select at least 4 custom colors).

In the customizer, I’m not sure what each of the accent colors refer to. In the customizer I see “Accent Color”, “Accent Alt Color”, “Secondary Accent Color” and “Secondary Accent Alt Color” and I’d like to choose some of them as well. And some of the above Accent colors affect links while some don’t. So if I change the Accent Color it affects some of the links as well, which I don’t want.

My questions are:
1. How do I work with the colors?
2. What do the accent colors refer to?
3. How can I set up 4 custom colors to use in widgets, that don’t affect links as well.

Finally, some suggestions for updates to the theme:
• Add a description of all the color settings to your documentation – some are obvious of course, but some are really hard to find.
• Make specific options in the Color Customizer for each of the kind of link on the site, including ones for links on a dark backgrounds and others for links on light backgrounds.

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Regards

Hi,

1. For simplicity, you can use something like this..

In the Impact and button element, give an extra class name as newcolor, then in Custom CSS do this

.newcolor a.sf-button{
background: red !important;
}

2. Accent color refers to color you set using the customizer.
3. you can follow the first step, add each new color in the Custom CSS then use that in the extra class name.

Let me know, what you got.

Thanks,
laranz.
