Frontend Customization

Open DayTidy → Settings → Customization to change Primary Color for DayTidy’s frontend controls. This changes DayTidy’s public booking surfaces without recoloring WordPress administration pages.

  1. Note the existing color so you can restore an intentional custom value later.
  2. Choose the brand color in Primary Color. Select a sufficiently dark color for white button text to remain readable.
  3. Select Save.
  4. Open a published offering and any separate booking page in a private window.
  5. Check normal, focused, selected, and disabled controls on desktop and mobile widths.

Use Default to restore DayTidy’s original green, then save. Resetting the control does not mean other custom theme styling has been removed.

Check text contrast on primary buttons, date/time selection, and the final booking action. Keyboard through the form and make sure the focused control is still identifiable. A color that looks suitable in the picker can be too pale behind white text when rendered as a button.

If a change does not appear, verify it was saved, check the public surface rather than wp-admin, and review relevant page caches and theme/plugin style overrides. Compare both the generated offering page and an embedded form when the site uses both.

Primary Color does not choose the offering layout or create a complete custom theme. Use Offering Page settings for Style 1/Style 2, element order, and sticky sidebar behavior. Use Views for saved list/grid/calendar displays.
