Block Theme Color Switcher

🎨 Unleash Your Theme’s True Colors!

WordPress Block Themes (Full Site Editing) are powerful, often coming with multiple style variations defined in theme.json. However, usually, you select one style in the editor, and that’s what visitors see.

Block Theme Color Palette Switcher breaks this limitation. It parses your theme’s theme.json and style variations (inside the /styles folder) to automatically generate a floating font-end menu.

🚀 Who is this for?

• 👨‍💻 For Theme Developers: Stop creating multiple demo sites for different color schemes! Install this plugin, and let your potential customers preview every single color palette your theme offers on a single demo site.
• 👤 For Site Visitors: Give your users control. Let them choose a look that suits their mood or accessibility needs (e.g., High Contrast vs. Pastel).

✨ Key Features

• 🔌 Plug & Play: Automatically detects palettes from theme.json and styles/*.json files. No manual configuration needed.
• 💾 Persistent Selection: Uses Browser Storage (LocalStorage) to remember the user’s choice. If they leave and come back, their selected color palette remains active!
• ⚡ Instant Preview: Changes CSS variables on the fly. No page reloads required.
• 🛠️ Customizable UI:
  • Change the trigger button text.
  • Position the button (Left/Right).
  • Adjust vertical spacing to avoid conflict with other chat widgets or buttons.
• 🧹 Clean Reset: Includes a “Reset” button to revert to the theme’s default colors instantly.
