The Color Theme settings in Cadence allow you to modify the visual appearance of your event even after it has gone live. You can update colors at any time to refresh your event's look or align with updated branding guidelines. Changes made to the color theme will immediately affect the appearance of your event across web and mobile platforms.
When to use
When your organization updates its brand colors
When you need to refresh the visual appearance of an ongoing event
When you want to highlight seasonal changes or special promotions
Only users with Event Manager or Administrator permissions can modify color themes for live events.
How to do it
Navigate to the Admin site for your live event.
Select Event Setup from the main navigation menu.
Click on Color Theme in the left sidebar menu.
Choose your preferred color theme option:
Default Color: Uses the color scheme set at the Account level
Custom Color: Applies a single color of your choice to all features
Advanced Colors: Allows different colors for each feature
Configure your selected theme option based on your choice in step 4.
For precise brand matching, enter specific hex codes (e.g., #FF5733) rather than using the visual color picker.
Preview your changes by checking the color samples shown in the interface.
Click "Save" to apply your updated color theme to the live event.
Color changes take effect immediately and will be visible to all users across web and mobile platforms.
Open your event's user-facing website in a new browser tab to verify the appearance.
Check your event in the mobile app to ensure colors display consistently across platforms.
Troubleshooting
If updated colors don't appear immediately, ask users to refresh their browser or restart the mobile app to clear cached data.
