Where did my preset color codes go?

Hi Steve,

GeneratePress 3.1 implemented Global Colors and adds them to the color palette.

How were you adding the colors previously? If you were using a custom function can you share it with us?

Thanks!

I wasn't using a custom function at all. I just used the colors that were there by default. The colors that used to show up before the update had a variety of colors, and I was just clicking the preset colors from the 10 or 12 choices that were there. There was one for yellow, red, green, two different blues, etc.

I used darker blue for the background on the H2s on one of my sites and I used a green color for the background H2s on another site. It was super easy, I would just click on the color choices that were already there by default.

I was able to get the color code from my other articles, but that adds more steps to my process, by the time I add the color code into the custom color area. Before it was so easy.

So, the screenshot I sent used to have a variety of colors, not just the current ones.

Not sure if this was an intention of the update. If there is a way I can customize the color options I see that would be super helpful.

Here is what it looked like before.

This is what I am trying to accomplish. I want my H2's to have white text and a green background.

If there is a way to set this automatically, that would be great too.

Thanks!

Ah, those are the default colors that WordPress provides.

In GP 3.1, we introduced Global Colors: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/using-global-colors/

These colors now occupy the color palette.

You can set them in "Customize > Colors".

Let us know if you have any other questions :)
