Choose your color layout

The Colors panel can show one of two layouts depending on your site’s current color configuration.

Seed colors

Some sites use three color seeds:

  • Brand: The main brand color used for buttons, links, and section tints.

  • Accent: A supporting accent color.

  • Secondary: An additional supporting color.

The Site Editor uses these seeds to generate the site’s color palette.

Flat colors

Other sites use individual color controls for specific surfaces and elements, including:

  • Background

  • Secondary background

  • Primary text

  • Secondary text

  • Primary button background

  • Primary button text

  • Secondary button background

  • Secondary button text

The fields shown in your Colors panel are the fields available for your site.

There is no separate Button Themes section in the current Site Editor. Button colors are controlled either by the Brand seed or by the button color fields in the flat-color layout.


Change and preview your colors

  1. Select the color field you want to change.

  2. Enter or choose the new color.

  3. Review the live preview.

  4. Update the remaining colors as needed.

  5. Select Save in the Site Editor preview header.

Color changes remain as unsaved editor changes until you select Save.


Save or discard color changes

The Site Editor shows an Unsaved changes state when you have modified colors without saving.

  • Select Save to apply the changes.

  • Select Discard in the unsaved-changes prompt to remove the current draft changes.

  • If you navigate away with unsaved changes, the Site Editor asks whether you want to save or discard them.

The Site Editor also supports undo and redo while changes remain unsaved. Saving clears the current undo and redo history.


Use accessible color combinations

Choose colors with enough contrast for text and interactive elements.

Avoid combinations such as:

  • Light text on a light background

  • Muted text on a light accent color

  • Light button text on a light button background

Pay particular attention to text over hero images and other background media.
