How to Configure Advanced Colors with Different Colors for Each Feature

The Advanced Colors option in the Color Theme menu allows you to customize individual features with different colors, giving you precise control over your event's visual appearance. Unlike the Custom Color option which applies a single color throughout, Advanced Colors lets you create a more nuanced color scheme that can highlight specific features while maintaining your brand identity.

When to use

  • When you want different colors for different features in your event
  • When creating a multi-color branded experience
  • When you need to visually distinguish between different types of functionality

How to do it

    Navigate to the Admin site for your event.
    Select Event Setup from the main navigation menu.
    Click on Color Theme in the left sidebar menu.
    Select the "Advanced colors" radio button from the available theme options.
    Click on a color box next to any feature to open the color picker.
For brand consistency, use hex codes from your brand guidelines rather than trying to match colors visually.
    Select a color using one of these methods:
  • Drag the vertical slider to choose a color hue
  • Click within the color field to select the exact shade and saturation
  • Enter a specific hex code (e.g., #FF5733) in the input field at the bottom
    Click "OK" to confirm your color selection for that feature.
    Repeat steps 5-7 for each feature you want to customize with a different color.
You don't need to set a color for every feature. Any features without a custom color will use the default color.
    Click "Apply Color to All" if you want to apply the currently selected color to all remaining features.
    Click "Save" to apply your color selections to your event.
    Visit your event's user-facing website to verify the colors appear as expected.
Check both standard menu items and any custom menu items you've created, as custom items may require additional verification.

Troubleshooting

If custom menu items don't display your selected color theme correctly, verify that you've clicked "Save" after making your color selections. Some custom menu items may require additional configuration to properly display custom colors.
