Your colors are organized into 5 different groups: Accent Colors, Button Colors, Background Colors, Icon Colors, and Text Colors. Each element controls various parts of the website template you've selected.
Accent Colors
- Accent Color #1: Controls the prominent colors of your website, such as the hover effect, page titles, and highlighted text.
- Accent Color #2: Controls the background of your last item link in addition to item and caption titles.
- Accent Color #3: Controls the background color of your site links and social media block, your store checkout, and the color behind your menu block.
Note: Accent colors impact your website in different ways, depending on the template you have selected.
Button Colors
- Control the button text and the background color of your buttons.
Background Colors
- Control the background color for your content, footer, form fields, and the site.
PRO TIP!
Your background colors should be a subtle statement and not compete with any accent colors.
Icon Colors
These control your social media icons, as well as icons that will appear in your content area. The options in this section can vary depending on the graphics settings you've applied to your template.
- Icon Color: Controls your social media icons.
- Icon Background
- Content Icons: Controls any icon that shows in the content of your website, such as external links, gift cards, and video play buttons.
Text Colors
