[Support request] Can't change color palette with filter

[Silvio]

Hi,

I added this code in the function.php of my child theme (blank, just installed)

add_filter( 'generate_default_color_palettes', 'tu_custom_color_palettes' );
function tu_custom_color_palettes( $palettes ) {
	$palettes = array(
		'#000000',
		'#FFFFFF',
		'#20ec73',
		'#575757',
		'#222222',
		'#1e72bd',
		'#8E44AD',
		'#00CC77',
	);
	
	return $palettes;
}

But I can’t see custom color codes in my palette.

That looks good – those colors aren’t showing up in the Customizer when you open a color picker?

Can you try this?:

add_action( 'wp', function() {
    add_filter( 'generate_default_color_palettes', function() {
        return array(
            '#000000',
            '#FFFFFF',
            '#20ec73',
            '#575757',
            '#222222',
            '#1e72bd',
            '#8E44AD',
            '#00CC77',
        );
    } );
} );

yes, colors in the customizer didn’t change. and unfortunately, neither trying with the code you posted.

I am running it on MAMP, and I even have tried to stop and restart the servers. And change the browser from Chrome to Safari.

[Silvio]

additionally, I created a clean installation in MAMP with the last version of everything, and no one of this codes works 🙁

I just tried the first function you shared and here’s what I see: http://prntscr.com/nivzu9

Looks like it’s working?

How are you adding the function?

[Silvio]

are you using MAMP?

I just copy and pasted the function in the function.php of the child theme

[Tom]

I’m using XAMPP, but it shouldn’t matter. Any other servers/sites you can test on?

First solution by Silvio worked fine for me. Thx Klaus

Glad you’ve found the post 🙂
