Header Styles

Customize the background and link colors for the header of your community site. You can set separate colors for light mode and dark mode.


Setting Light Mode Colors

  1. Go to Settings → Branding → Community Site
  2. Scroll to the Header Styles card
  3. Enter a Background Color — this sets the header background in light mode
  4. Enter a Links & Text Color — this sets the color of navigation links (e.g., Login) in light mode
  5. Click Update Header Styles

Colors can be entered as hex values (e.g. #1c1917), RGB (e.g. rgb(28, 25, 23)), or any valid CSS color name.


Setting Dark Mode Colors

  1. Go to Settings → Branding → Community Site
  2. Scroll to the Header Styles — Dark Mode card
  3. Enter a Background Color for dark mode
  4. Enter a Links & Text Color for dark mode
  5. Click Update Dark Mode Styles

If dark mode colors are not set, the light mode colors are used for both themes.


Clearing Header Colors

To remove a custom color and restore the default header appearance, clear the color field and save. Leave both fields blank to use the default theme colors.


Tips

  • Contrast matters — make sure your link/text color has enough contrast against the background color for readability.
  • Test both modes — toggle dark mode in your browser or device settings to preview how the dark mode colors look.
  • The header background color extends edge-to-edge across the full width of the page.
