Hi,

I want to change the template color as is done in the demos using the left sprocket. I changed the hex code in the colors.php file but this predictably did nothing. Shouldn't you have to recompile the less to make this happen? Did I just put some of the PHP code in the wrong place? I wasn't sure where to put the include code in the laravel framework.

Hello,

Please make sure that you have also added the colors.php PHP File Linking in the Document <head> so that the Color change can take place. Complete Instructions for using this can be found in the Documentation > Start > Color Schemes Section.

I tried this and I can't change the colors either, in the documentation it says to link colors.css says nothing regarding using colors.php. Either way I have tried linking both and its not working.

Same here, documentation says colors**.css** but you're saying colors**.php**. Which one and how?

Hello,

We Really Apologize about the Inconveniences caused!

Both the Files can be used to change Colors. If you use the css/colors.css File, you will need to change all the Color HEX Codes manually in the File. But if you use the css/colors.php File, you can simply use it as css/colors.php?color=HEX (without #) which will change all the HEX in the File automatically making it convenient.

Hope this Helps!
