Why Customize Your Calendar Widget?
Customizing your calendar widget ensures a cohesive brand experience for your clients. Whether your brand colors are bold and vibrant or sleek and professional, aligning your calendar widget with your overall aesthetic enhances professionalism and user experience.
Step-by-Step Guide to Customizing Your Calendar Widget
Step 1: Access Your Calendar Settings
First, log in to your Go High Level account and navigate to the calendar section. On the left-hand side, click on “Settings,” then scroll down to “Calendars.”
Step 2: Select the Calendar to Customize
In the calendar section, find the calendar you want to customize. If you have multiple calendars, navigate through the pages until you find the correct one. Click on the three dots next to the calendar name and select “Edit.”
Step 3: Switch to Neo Style
To give your calendar a modern look, switch to the “Neo” style. In the customization tab, find the style settings and select “Neo.” Click “Save” to apply the changes. Your calendar will immediately update to the new style.
Step 4: Customize Colors to Match Your Brand
Now, it’s time to adjust the colors to fit your brand. Under customization, you’ll see options for primary color and background color:
- Primary Color: This affects the text and buttons.
- Background Color: This affects the background of the widget.
For example, if your brand colors are black and red, set the background color to black and the primary color to red. You can enter the hex codes for precise color matching.
Step 5: Update Button Text and Other Elements
Next, tailor the button text and other elements to fit your brand’s voice. If you prefer “Schedule Consultation” over “Schedule Meeting,” update this in the button text field. You can also choose to hide or display the calendar title, description, and details as needed.
Step 6: Embed Custom Code (Optional)
For an extra touch, you can embed custom code into your calendar widget. This is useful for adding videos, images, or other media:
- Go to the customization tab and scroll down to the custom code section.
- Paste your HTML, such as an iframe for a YouTube video.
- Save the changes and preview your calendar to ensure everything looks correct.
Preview and Final Adjustments
After making all your changes, preview your calendar to see how it looks. Ensure that the colors, text, and any embedded media align with your branding. If you need to make further adjustments, go back to the customization tab and tweak as necessary.
Example: A Complete Calendar Customization
Here’s an example to illustrate the process:
- Original Calendar: A default calendar with a blue theme.
