How To Change Navigation Colors
You can customize Equinox navigation colors with ease.
Equinox comes with three customizable navigation states:
Nav Color - The color of the navigation bar text and components when its in the unscrolled state (the way the navigation bar looks like before the user starts scrolling). In this state, the background is transparent (hence no option).
Nav BG - The background color of the navigation bar when the user starts scrolling and it becomes fixed to the top of the screen.
Nav Color Scroll - The color of the navigation bar text and components in its scrolled state, when the user being scrolling.
Here's how to adjust these variables.
- Open up your Weebly editor.
- Click on the "THEME" tab.
- Click on "Theme Options"
- Find the Nav Color, Nav BG, and Nav Color Scroll swatches as described above.
How To Change Body Color
By default, Mocha comes with a dark black-themed background. But that doesn't mean you have to keep using this color style. In fact, Equinox works very well with a wide variety of colors, particularly colors on the darker side of the spectrum.

- Open up your Weebly editor.
- Click on the "THEME" tab.
- Click on "Theme Options"
- Find the option for "Body Color."
- Change this variable.
How To Change Button Colors
Equinox includes options for changing the color of the buttons. Here's how.
- Open up your Weebly editor.
- Click on the "THEME" tab.
- Click on "Theme Options"
- Find the option for "Btn Text and Btn BG."
- Btn Text is the text of the buttons, while Btn BG is the outline and background color for the buttons.
- Set both of these to your desired colors.
Note that if your selected buttons are not responsive to these changes, you may need to change their style.
Troubleshoot Issues
I Can't Set The Color Picker To Black Or White
This is unfortunately a known bug with Weebly's color picker in all themes, both default and premium. The best remedy for this is to either "reset" the theme options (often times our default value is a true black or white color), or to choose a color "near" the absolute black or white in the color picker. If you absolutely must set it to exactly #fff or #000, please contact us.
