Changing Colors

[jrcarroll]

I'm trying to change some of the default colors; however, when I modify the colors in material-dashboard-pro-react.jsx nothing happens. Is there something that I need to rebuild to pickup the change? Thanks!

Hello there @jrcarroll ,

Thank you for your interest in working with our products.
Could you tell us what you wanted to change?

Best,

Certainly and thanks for the quick response. I'd like to change the primaryColor from "#9c27b0" to "#202a30". I was under the impression that I could just change the color code in material-dashboard-pro-react.jsx; however, that doesn't appear to change anything. Thanks!

Manu,

Hope all is well. I pulled down a fresh copy and I was able to change the colors without issue. There must be something on my end that is preventing me from seeing the change. I'll need to go find it. Thanks for the help.

Found where the "issue" is. I was trying to change card header colors and it appears that those are hard coded to take advantage of a linear gradient. Changing the colors using primaryColor, warningColor, etc... will NOT change the colors of the card headers. Only going in and changing the values in the gradients will make the change.

Hello again @jrcarroll ,

Sorry for not responding earlier.
At the moment we are stuck on some other projects, and changing that, of which you are speaking, would require a lot of work, a lot of code refactoring, for which we do not have time at the moment.
I've noted this issue, and we are free of the other projects, we are going to make a bigger update on these products.
Sorry for this inconvenience.

Best,
Manu
