All settings and options for SP Page Builder’s colors can be found in the Color Library.

Color Variables and Modes

SP Page Builder’s Global Color settings introduce Variables, enabling users to define and manage colors centrally. These variables can be applied effortlessly across all SP Page Builder pages, ensuring consistent styling throughout the website. Any updates to a variable are automatically reflected everywhere it is used, making color management more efficient and streamlined.

Accessing Color Library

The Color Library option can be accessed from SP Page Builder’s Settings. From the side top bar, go to Settings > Color Library. 

Creating a Variable

Once you have accessed the Color Library, click on the “New Variable” button to start adding your color variables. Assign a meaningful name to the variable and specify a default color value.

Adding Modes to the Variables

You can assign specific color values for different modes, such as light mode, dark mode, or custom theme variants. These modes are fully flexible, allowing you to tailor them precisely to your design needs.

1. Click on the “+” button in the right corner in your mode panel. This will create a column for this new mode in the Variables panel.
2. You can add as many modes as you need. Each Mode will appear in a separate column. For example, if you’ve named your modes “Dark Mode” and “Light Mode,” they will appear as separate columns.
3. Define property values for each mode:
   Example:
   For Dark Mode, set the color to #2A4BEE.
   For Light Mode, set the color to #F4F5FD.

Managing Variables

Renaming and Copying Variables

• Rename a Variable: Simply click on the variable name to edit and update it.
• Copy a Variable Name: Hover over the variable, and click the copy icon that appears next to it to copy the variable name.

Renaming Modes

You can rename variable modes to better organize and differentiate them, especially when working with multiple modes. 

By default, the modes are named "Mode 1," "Mode 2," and so on. To customize these names, simply double-click on the mode name and enter your preferred label.

Duplicating Variables and Columns

You can duplicate variables along with their modes either row-wise or column-wise:

• To Duplicate or Delete a Column:
  Click the three-dot menu next to the column name, then select “Duplicate” to create a copy of the column or choose “Delete” to remove the entire column.
• To Duplicate or Delete a Row:
  Hover over any row to reveal a three-dot menu. Click on it to choose “Duplicate” for duplicating the row or “Delete” to remove the entire row.

Importing Global Colors

Enabling the Color Switcher

To display the color switcher on your site, navigate to SP Page Builder Settings > Options > Advanced and enable the Show Color Switcher option.

The modes you created with each of your variables will be displayed to switch between light, dark, or any custom theme.

Note: Once the Show Color Switcher is enabled, add a minimum of two modes for the switcher functionality to become active. Also, the switcher style displays two colors, which are taken from the first two variables defined in the Library.
