Global Colours

Melody Jaimon • February 6, 2023

Establish a colour palette and attach the individual colours to any or all widgets with colour settings using global colours. When the linked colour in the global colour settings is modified, the colour of any elements that are related to the global colour is instantly updated. This enables you to make colour changes rapidly, reducing design time and ensuring your site’s appearance is consistent across pages.

Configure Global Colours

To change the global colours, follow these steps:


1. Click Design in the side panel, then click Global colours.

Design Global Colours


2. Click the Plus symbol next to Primary, or whichever option you want to change.

Primary and Secondary Colours


3. Enter the desired colour, the HEX or RGB value, or use the eyedropper tool to choose a colour.

HEX or RGB Colour Value


Repeat these steps for each global colour that is needed. The colour must then be linked to widgets on your website.

Automatically Configure Global Colours

Connect Colours Automatically

The automated global colours generator scans your site and finds the most commonly used colours. It creates a list of colours from which to choose and once chosen, those colours become your global colours and are linked to your site widgets.


  1. Click the Create New Site button on your Dashboard.
  2. Choose a template and click Start Building. The templates that can auto-generate global colours: SEO Consultant Landing Page, Real Estate Agency, Insurance Company, Roofing Company, Plumber, Blank Real Estate Agency, Professional CV, Gardener, and Accountant.
  3. Click Design in the side panel, then click Global Colours.
  4. Click Start connecting colours.
  5. Click Connect it for me or I'll connect it myself.
  6. (Optional) If you choose I'll connect it myself, click the Plus icon next to each colour and pick the colours separately. 
  7. Choose one of the generated colours to use.
  8. Click Save & Connect Colours.


The colours will appear in the design panel’s Global Colors section.

  4. (Optional) If you need to change one of the global colours, click the pencil icon and the global colours setting will appear allowing you to edit the desired colour.
