Color Fields

Color fields give you a color picker, and save a hexadecimal value of the selected color.

The Field

Color fields will either use your browser’s color picker (if your browser supports <input type="color">) or a Javascript-powered color picker.

Templating

Calling a Color field in your templates will return the hexidecamal value of the selected color, if there is one.

If you don’t manually change a Color field’s color, it will be saved as #000000. It’s not possible to save a Color field without a value. So the only time when a Color field won’t have a value is if it hasn’t been saved for the given element yet.

{% block head %}
    {{ parent() }}

    {% if entry.linkColor and entry.linkColor != '#000000' %}
        <style type="text/css">
            .content a {
                color: {{ entry.linkColor }};
            }
        </style>
    {% endif %}
{% endblock %}
