Meet the next evolution in the management of your community branding — a redesigned interface for creating and editing color palettes!
This update builds upon our recent color palette management improvements and enhanced dark and light mode handling, providing admins with an even smoother way to customize their site’s appearance.
What’s new?
The new color palette interface seamlessly integrates with the overall admin design system, delivering a cohesive experience that makes palette management both powerful and approachable.
The new interface includes:
-
Integrated design that matches the modern admin interface aesthetic.
-
Clear naming to make sure you know how each color is applied.
-
Smoother workflow for creating new palettes or modifying existing ones.
-
Default palette controls right from the editing interface, for both light and dark modes.
When creating a new palette, you can now see a visual preview of the base palette before you select it:
This matches the previews that are now also available in other areas where you select colour palettes - on the palette list page, in user preferences, and in theme settings.
How to access the new interface
The new colour palette UI is available now for all Discourse sites! You can access it by:
-
Going to Admin → Appearance → Color palettes
-
Clicking Edit on any existing palette, or the New button to create a new palette.
This latest update represents our ongoing commitment to providing admins with powerful, user-friendly tools for customizing the appearance of their Discourse communities.
The enhanced interface makes it easier than ever to create beautiful, branded experiences for your members while maintaining the flexibility and control you need.
