Topic: Want to change theme colors

Life.appadmin free asked 3 years ago


I want to change the theme colors. Changing the _variables.scss in the node modules is not successful. If another person clones the project, he will have trouble going to the node modules and editing it, and if he does an npm update, he will have to fix everything again. It is not standard. How to override theme colors without going to node modules directory?

If you import MDB scss file in styles.scss as we suggest in our installation guide, you just need to define your custom variables before mdb.scss import:

$primary: red;

@import '~@fortawesome/fontawesome-free/scss/fontawesome.scss';
@import '~@fortawesome/fontawesome-free/scss/solid.scss';
@import '~@fortawesome/fontawesome-free/scss/regular.scss';
@import '~@fortawesome/fontawesome-free/scss/brands.scss';
@import '../../mdb-angular-ui-kit/assets/scss/mdb.scss';

@Arkadiusz Idzikowski Thank You! It works for variables. But when I define a class and style it, they do not work. For example range colors, border colors in a dropdown list, will not change from class. enter image description here

How can I override colors with class variables?

I found a solution. I added !important attribute after the style.

background: $primary !important;

@Life.appadmin If you want to override classes, you should add your class definition after mdb.scss import. When you do that, the !important flag will not be necessary in most cases.
