Change space color with new Confluence 'experience' ?

Joel Andrews_sjhzna

We would like to change the colors for the individual spaces within Confluence. The new 'experience' blanket every space the same now. It was much easier before when we had different colors for each of our spaces. Can this option be re-enabled? If not, we will have to opt-out of the new UI.

Hi Joel,

Most customizations are not available at this moment per our blog on the New Navigation but you can try Refined Theme for Confluence if you want to try customizing your own theme.

Please be advised that if you do opt out of the new UI now, this is a temporary opt-out, as it will be pushed to Cloud instances permanently in the near future.

Let us know if you have any questions!

Kind Regards,
Shannon

Hi Joel,

As a follow-up, I wanted to let you know that in particular the individual space custom color themes are being discontinued:

Custom space color schemes are going away

You will be able to continue using the 3rd party theme add-ons to customize Confluence.

Let us know if you have any trouble.

Kind Regards,
Shannon

where is the "dislike" button? it took a long time to train engineers on color coded spaces. now they all look the same. offering me an outside vendor is not a good answer :-(

Hi Kimberly,

You'll be able to share your feedback with the developers via the New Look by clicking on your profile photo on the bottom left-hand corner of your Confluence instance. There will be a menu item towards the top letting you know to provide feedback.

Go ahead and provide feedback there and let us know if you have any trouble!

@Joel AndrewsAs far as I learned the option to opt-out will go away soon (unfortunately).

Joel Andrews_sjhzna

@Martin SauterI've learned the same, and the only way to change that in the future will be to use the pay-to-use theme packs.

@Shannon SI think this is a bad practice, I've received nothing but complains and concerns from my teams. Why would a new theme be forced onto cloud users?

Rob Buijs

This new UI is going to be a disaster for my users. It's bland, usability has gone down, spaces all get the same bland look.

It's a confusing mess.

Hi Martin,

Thank you for your feedback. You may be aware that Confluence has changed its default look several times in the past, and this is simply the new direction it is taking. Please feel free to send feedback via the form on your instance, if you see improvements that we can make to this new theme.

Take care!

Kind Regards,
Shannon

klunky but effective workaround for the loss of space color: host a colored bar on imgur and add it to the header.

Good idea!
