Colors are managed using the Color Manager which is accessed from Site Settings Management or Page Manager.  From Site Settings Management a single color collection can be applied to the entire website.  PortalProdigy also provides the option to define a unique color collection for individual pages or groups of pages.  Each Template Style may implement color settings differently.  Some Template Styles contain hard coded colors for some of their elements.  Background colors in areas with curved borders are typically hard coded.  Each page that uses a Standard Template Style contains a Style Sheet “Styles.css”.  Colors managed via Color Manager are implemented by the “Styles.css”.  Custom Template Styles are not required to use the “Styles.css”; however PortalProdigy encourages their use in order to preserver the users’ ability to manage colors using Color Manager. 

Some of the Standard Template Styles for specific Page Types such as Product Catalog pages use additional style sheets.  Product Catalog pages use “Catalog.css”.  Product Catalog colors are managed separately by clicking the Color Scheme button  located at the button of the Product Catalog Management page.  See the Chapter titled Product Catalog Features in Detail for additional information.
