Custom Colors in New Content Experience Requirements

Alan.P.39

The July 2024 release notes specify three criteria for the new custom colors to be available:

With this update, the Display accordion appears on the Edit Content page if the module meets the following criteria:

• There is no parent above the module in the content navigation hierarchy
• The course uses a theme to set a navbar color and all modules are one cohesive color
• The instructor attempting to change the color of the module has the Edit Root Module Colors permission granted to their role.

I don't understand what the second one means. I know I've met the other two requirements, but the Display accordion is not displayed. Can someone explain what that second bullet point means and how I can check it?

Hi @Alan.P.39 . In the Admin Settings > Navigation and Themes, in the Themes tab, you can set the Primary Color to Use the Default (muti-color) or you can choose a single color. You can check the navbar color on the Themes tab:

1. Click the theme that you are using.
2. Under Primary Color, verify that the Choose colors radio button is selected.
3. If not, select Choose colors, click the color picker, and select a color.
4. Click Save and Close.

Thanks! I neglected to actually choose a color. When none is selected as the option in the color picker it doesn't display the display panel. Thanks for the answer.
