Tweak It Yourself (TIY)

Hi there! 👋
In today’s lesson, we’re going to look at how to change your global button colors across the entire website.


✅ Step 1: Log in and Open Any Page

  • Start by logging into your website backend.

  • Navigate to the Pages section.

  • Choose any page (for this example, I’m using the “Team” page because I know it contains multiple buttons).

  • Right-click the page and choose Edit with Elementor in a new tab.


🎛️ Step 2: Access Site Settings

  • Once Elementor loads, go to the Site Settings in the left sidebar.

  • Under Site Settings, click on Buttons.


🎨 Step 3: Customize Button Colors

You’ll see the default button styles here — including their normal state and hover state.

Normal Button Colors:
  • The background color (e.g., a creamish-yellowish tone) is set here.

  • You can:

    • Pick a new color using the color picker, or

    • Choose from your Global Colors (set in the previous lesson).

  • If you choose a darker background, be sure to change the text color to something lighter like white for readability.

Hover Button Colors:
  • This controls how the button looks when someone hovers their mouse over it.

  • You can:

    • Change the hover background (e.g., to a bright or contrasting color).

    • Adjust the hover text color to keep the button readable.


⚠️ Note on Inconsistent Button Colors

Not all buttons may reflect your global changes.

  • For example, some hero sections or CTAs may use custom button colors that override the global settings.

  • This is often done to make specific buttons stand out — for instance, buttons on a dark background may have been customized separately.

Don’t worry! I’ll show you how to adjust individual button colors manually in a future lesson under “Editing Buttons on a Page.”


💾 Step 4: Save Your Changes

Once you’re happy with the button styles:

  • Click Save in the bottom-left corner of Elementor.

  • Your buttons across the website will now reflect the new global colors (where applicable).


🎉 And that’s it!

You’ve now learned how to:

  • Access button styling options in Elementor.

  • Set both normal and hover colors.

  • Understand when and why some buttons might not follow the global settings.

See you in the next lesson! 😊
