Aticolor Palettes – Color Palette Manager for Designers

Beskrywing

Aticolor Palettes lets you build and maintain a personal color library right inside WordPress. Ideal for designers and developers who work on multiple sites and want quick access to project color palettes.

Key features:

  • Color groups — organize colors by project, brand or category
  • Toolbar access — click the palette icon in the admin bar for instant access from any page
  • Full admin page — manage your palette from a dedicated, spacious interface
  • One-click copy — click “Copy” on any color to send the hex value to your clipboard
  • Transparency support — opacity slider + 8-digit hex (#RRGGBBAA) for colors with alpha channel
  • Add, edit and delete — full CRUD for both groups and colors
  • Remembers collapsed groups — the dropdown remembers which groups you collapsed
  • Persistent storage — your palette is saved in the WordPress database
  • Internationalized — available in English and Spanish (and ready for more languages)

External Services

This plugin optionally connects to Ko-fi (https://ko-fi.com) when you click the “Support this plugin” button. The Ko-fi donation page is loaded in a modal iframe solely to allow voluntary donations to the plugin author. No data from your WordPress site is sent to Ko-fi automatically — the connection is only made when a logged-in admin explicitly clicks the button.

Installation

  1. Upload the aticolor-palettes folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
  2. Activate the plugin through the Plugins menu in WordPress
  3. Click the palette icon in the admin bar to start adding colors

Kwel-vrae

Will this plugin affect my site’s frontend?

No. All CSS and JavaScript is only loaded when the admin bar is visible (i.e. when a logged-in user is browsing), and the plugin does not modify any site content.

Where is my palette data stored?

In the wp_options table, under the key cpm_palette_data. If you uninstall the plugin this data is automatically removed.

Can I use transparent colors?

Yes. The color form includes an opacity slider and accepts 8-digit hex codes (#RRGGBBAA). Opaque colors are stored as standard 6-digit hex (#RRGGBB).

Can multiple users have separate palettes?

Currently the palette is shared across all admin users of the site. Per-user palettes are planned for a future release.

Aanbevelings

I work on several projects at the same time and I always wasted time looking for each client’s hex. With Aticolor I have all my colors organized by project and accessible from the admin bar with one click. Copying to the clipboard is instant. A small plugin but that I use every day.
