Theme settings colour values

    I’m uncertain whether this is by design but I don’t think so.

    As far as I can see, all the theme settings colour related hex values are stored with a leading #, like these examples:

    [page_font_color] => #282828
    [button_text_color] => #1e73be
    [menu_logo_color] => #282828
    [page_accent_color] => #1e73be

    However, the background_color hex value is stored without a leading #, like this example:

    [background_color] => f8f8f8

    I’m coding some dynamic CSS generation stuff and I know how to cater for this anomaly but it would be nice if it were fixed.

    Hi @ivanlutrov,

    the background color settings aren’t technically coming from the theme.

    they’re defined by WordPress core and enabled by adding theme support like this:

    // Custom background.
add_theme_support(
	'custom-background',
	array(
		'default-color'      => 'ffffff',
		'default-image'      => '',
		'default-repeat'     => 'repeat',
		'default-position-x' => 'left',
		'default-position-y' => 'top',
		'default-size'       => 'auto',
		'default-attachment' => 'scroll',
	)
);

    Also, the output is handled by WordPress core so things may be a bit different for the background-color options than for the options we have registered in the customizer.

    Hope that helps 🙂

    Best,
    David
