    Hello,

    Can anyone suggest a plugin that will allow me to customize my Executive Theme color to a color other than the 7 available in the basic version of the theme?

    I know I can go into the style.css file to accomplish this, but would like to use a plug-in if possible.

    Thanks!

    I don't know of any plug-in that will allow you to change your theme options the most conventional way to accomplish this would be editing your (Style.css ) file.

    Here's a tutorial from StudioPress that might help you, http://my.studiopress.com/tutorials/color-style-options/

    Would it be just as simple to search my style.css file for the color code I want to replace and replace each instance of it, then upload the updated style.css file?

    It won't hurt to try... If that doesn't work just follow the tutorial I posted it should be of help.

    I would go to the bottom of your Style.css sheet where you will find all of the color schemes. Copy a color scheme and change the all colors to your new color.
