Create a Custom Colour Scheme

If none of the ready-made colour schemes suits your work, choose your own colours for the background, text, links and more.

  1. Open Layout in the Settings menu at the top of your admin. At the end of the Colour Scheme box, select Custom. Edit custom colour scheme appears in place of the example picture, because a custom scheme has no example. If your list has no Custom, your plan does not include it, and our pricing page has the plans.

  2. Select Edit custom colour scheme. This saves your layout and your choice of Custom, and opens the Custom Colour Scheme page. Each colour sits in a box with a small arrow.
