Frequently Asked Questions about custom themes

What's a hex code?

For an explanation of what a hex code is, please check out this website.

Can I apply more than one custom theme to my Guru workspace? Or, set different custom themes for different Groups?

The custom theme is a workspace-level setting, meaning, all workspaces within a Guru organization set their theme individually. At this time, the custom theme colors will be seen by all users in the workspace. The ability for different Groups to see different custom themes is the kind of feature request Guru’s product team would like to receive as Product Feedback in the Guru Community.

How do I ensure the color combination I've selected is accessible?

Please keep in mind, opening the door to endless color combinations in the Guru UI can present accessibility challenges. If you'd like to ensure there is a contrast between your navigation background and accent color compared to the text and icon color to ensure the Guru UI can be read easily, please use this tool.
