The Style Designer allows you to easily customize the visual design of your website, and make it truly stand out.

Using the Style Designer, you can set the colors, fonts and sizes of your site title, navigation, headings, paragraphs and more. The changes made using Style Designer are done at site-level. This means that you only need to adjust the setting once, and it's automatically applied to all of your pages.

The Style Designer can be accessed by going to Style > Style Settings > Style Designer, and is split up into two sections: Color and Font.

The Color section allows you to change the color of elements such as main heading, navigation and paragraph text. The Font section is where you can customize everything from your header, right down to the spacing between the letters in your header.

Changing the color settings of your site enables you to provide a richer experience for your visitors. Here's what you can customize:

Main Header
This is the page heading, and is displayed at the top of your pages.  

Navigation
This the main navigation displayed on your site. This option allows you to set the color that your visitors will see when they first visit your site.

Navigation (Selected)
When visitors navigate to a page, the navigation link will change color to indicate which page is being viewed.

Navigation (Hover)
When visitors mouse over a navigation link, the link color will change.
