Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Arts Color Switcher for Elementor – Dark Mode & Color Switching on Scroll
No – the free Elementor is enough.
Yes. Drop the Color Switcher widget anywhere – or the [arts_color_switcher_toggle] shortcode in a menu or footer – and pick one of four shapes: an icon, a switch, a row of buttons, or a dropdown. A visitor's choice is remembered across pages, and until they make one the page opens on whatever their device asks for – or on the palette you pinned, if you pinned one.
Most dark mode plugins generate the dark version for you: a CSS filter or a script inverts whatever your site happens to be, and you exclude the parts it gets wrong. This plugin generates nothing. You design the second palette yourself, in the same Global Colors picker you designed the first one in, and only what you linked changes. That is more work than a filter on day one, and it is the reason the result looks designed rather than inverted ever after. It is also why the switch is cheap: the colors are computed in CSS, nothing rewrites your HTML, and the same mechanism turns whole sections as visitors scroll – which a filter cannot do at all.
They stay exactly as they are. Partial adoption is expected – set alternatives only for the colors that should change.
Colors that are not Global Colors: a hex typed into a widget, an inline style attribute, or a color supplied by a dynamic tag. Embedded content you do not control – YouTube, maps, third-party forms – keeps its own colors, and WordPress itself renders oEmbeds on a white background regardless of your theme. Printing resets the colors to your default palette, because light text on paper does not print; Alt images are not reset, so a page printed while the alternative palette is on keeps its alternative images. Images do follow, but only where you hand them something to follow with: pick an Alt image on the control and it swaps. Inline SVG drawn with currentColor follows for free and needs no second file at all, which is usually the right answer for a single-color logo. Anything that has to re-theme itself in JavaScript can listen for the arts-cs:change event.
No. Only colors linked to Elementor's Global Colors follow the switch, which is the same rule that makes the rest of Site Settings work. The same goes for a color supplied by a dynamic tag: Elementor resolves a dynamic tag to a literal value when the page renders, so those behave like a typed-in color rather than a linked one.
Anything that takes its colors from Global Colors follows the switch, whoever drew it – a cursor, a lightbox's chrome, a device mockup's frame. That is the whole point of routing through Elementor's own colors instead of inventing a palette. Two specifics worth knowing. Sections pinned by Arts Horizontal Scroll are supported: mark a panel and the page turns as that panel crosses the screen. And if a plugin re-declares a Global Color on a smaller part of the page – Arts Header for Elementor does this for its sticky bar – that closer declaration wins there, so the pinned bar keeps the color it was given instead of following the page.
Not with its new elements yet, and it is worth knowing why before you build a page out of them. Elementor's atomic elements do not read Global Colors at all – they take their colors from a separate list of variables that is stored and named its own way. Alt values live on Global Colors, so an element built the new way has nothing to follow and keeps its colors while the rest of the page turns. Everything built the way Elementor has always worked is unaffected, and the two can share a page. Elementor still ships the new system as alpha and the way it stores those variables has already changed once, so we would rather wait for it to settle than guess at it and break your site later.
Yes. Every image control gains a "Choose Alt Image" button next to the one you already use – pick the alternative file there and it appears whenever the other palette is on. Background images work the same way, hover states included. The button shows up once at least one Global Color has an Alt value. Until then there is no second palette for an image to belong to, so there is nothing for the button to do. Give the alternative the same dimensions as the original. The layout keeps the original's box, so a file with a different shape will be stretched into it. If your logo is a single-color SVG you may not need this at all: an inline SVG drawn with currentColor already follows the palette the way text does.
No. Those hold many images behind one control, so there is no way to say which alternative belongs to which. What this covers is single-image widgets – Image, Image Box, the Site Logo widget – and background images. One place has no Alt picker: the logo in Site Settings → Site Identity. Use the Site Logo widget in your header template instead, which does.
