Hỏi đáp

How to assign new colour?

Open the page to edit tags or categories and change the colour in the column “Color”.

How does intelligent colour selection work?

The plugin does check if the category name contains one of the keywords and sets the pre-defined colour for this category.
For example, a category that contains Facebook will be coloured to a dark blue colour.

How to get a colour for a specific category?

Use WordPress default function: get_term_meta($term_id, ‘cc_color’, true);

The default embedding works great with widgets. Can also be used directly in code to color categories from list of posts for example.
