Theme Settings is the centralized location to edit all the global styles for your website.
There are two ways to access Theme Settings, depending on what you're working on.
If you're just getting started and haven't created any pages yet, you'll want to access from settings.
If you're already building pages and need to make an adjustment, you can do so quickly and easily right from the page editor by clicking the Theme tab.
These settings control the default colors for the site. A brand kit is still available in the portal settings where additional colors can be saved and made available to color pickers.
Primary:
The primary color is the color used for your calls to action. Most of the buttons are configured to be the primary color by default. This color is also sprinkled throughout the theme so this should be your primary brand color as well.
Secondary:
The secondary color is used for your transitional calls to action and also as the color used for backgrounds and image overlays. This color should complement but contrast your primary color.
Typography:
The typography color is the default color set to all the typography (h1 - h6, body, etc.). This color can be overridden in the Typography section below. If the individual typography items are never overridden, they will always inherit this value.
Additional Colors:
These are the most used colors throughout the theme other than your Primary, Secondary and Typography colors. Here you can control shades of White, Black, Dark Grey, Grey and Light Grey to adjust the UI to your branding colors.
These are the settings to control the primary and secondary font for the entire site. Some view these as follows: Primary = Headings and Secondary = Body/Paragraph Text.
Primary (Headings)
The primary font is used for all the headlines on the site (h1 - h6) by default. These can be overridden individually in the typography section below, but when unchanged, this is a great place to change all the site heading fonts in one shot since they will inherit that change automatically as long as they haven't been overridden.
Secondary (Body/Paragraph)
The secondary font is used for all the body copy, links, inputs and buttons on the site by default. These can be overridden individually in their respective sections below, but when un-changed, this is a great place to change all the site heading fonts in one shot since they will inherit that change automatically as long as they haven't been overridden.
Below are the settings to control the overall typography of the site: H1, H2, H3, H4, H5, H6, Body and Links. These inherit the fonts specified in the fonts section one level back.
Heading One (H1)
Here you can override the default Primary font settings specified in the Fonts section one level back.

Below are the settings to control all the different button styles for your site. General Buttons is where you establish the structure of your main buttons. In Simple Link-Buttons you can configure the style for simple buttons like the ones shown in cards and learning center. Then, under Button Color/Hover Settings all the colors are configured.
General Buttons
Below are the settings for your button calls to action sprinkled throughout the site. The background, border, text and hover colors are configured separately below. Also, there are choices around color where these are configured within the modules.

Below are the settings to control the site header styles.
Hello/Promotional Bar
Below are the controls for the hello/promotional bar which can be enabled in the Header module's global settings. This is the area that slides in at the top of the site.
Default/Solid Header
This will control the default header styles for the entire site. There are on-page controls to make the header transparent. These are the settings for the solid version of the header.
There are on-page controls to make the header transparent for the page being viewed. This will control the appearance of the header items should that control be changed to "Transparent". Consider the options in this group as overrides to the "Default/Solid Header" vs. a whole new set of configuration options.
Admin/Top Bar (Overrides)
This is the area between the Hello/Promotional Bar at the very top and the main header area. This is often used for utility menu items -- items that power users need right away like "Login".
Header Main (Overrides)
The sticky behavior of the header requires a spacer called the header anchor. The height of the anchor varies depending on the height of logos and their orientation and whether the hello bar is enabled. The settings inside set the heights for the spacer for all situations and are designed to avoid CLS (a metric that affects pagespeed scores).
Default Header Anchor Height
This is the value to use for the header anchor height when the header hello bar is not in use. Change this value until there is no gap between the first module rendered and the bottom of the header. Using the inspector is the easiest way to determine the height of the header.
Header Anchor: Height with Hello Bar Active
This is the value to use for the header anchor height when the header hello bar is in use. Change this value until there is no gap between the first module rendered and the bottom of the header. Using the inspector is the easiest way to determine the height of the header.
Header Anchor: Height When There's No Navigation (Landing Pages)
This is the value to use for the header anchor height when there is no navigation (usually the case for landing pages). Change this value until there is no gap between the first module rendered and the bottom of the header. Using the inspector is the easiest way to determine the height of the header.
Header Anchor: Height When There's No Navigation But the Hello Bar is Active (Landing Pages)
This is the value to use for the header anchor height when there is no navigation (usually the case for landing pages) but the hello bar is active. Change this value until there is no gap between the first module rendered and the bottom of the header. Using the inspector is the easiest way to determine the height of the header.
Header Anchor: Responsive Height
Engaged when the mobile nav is engaged as users size down their browser
This is the value to use for the header anchor height when the header hello bar is not in use and the browser has entered the responsive breakpoint where the mobile navigation is shown. Change this value until there is no gap between the first module rendered and the bottom of the header. Using the inspector is the easiest way to determine the height of the header.
Header Anchor: Responsive Height with Hello Bar Active
Engaged when the mobile nav is engaged as users size down their browser
This is the value to use for the header anchor height when the header hello bar is not in use and the browser has entered the responsive breakpoint where the mobile navigation is shown. Change this value until there is no gap between the first module rendered and the bottom of the header. Using the inspector is the easiest way to determine the height of the header.
