Hey,

Adding the field for “Theme Options” can be done in the file:
wp-content\themes\nalleto\admin\functions\functions.options.php

Mainly after the code:

$of_options[] = array(  'name' => '',
	'desc' => __( 'Color 4', 'ishyoboy' ),
	'id' => 'color4',
	'std' => ISH_COLOR_4,
	//'fold' => 'off_' . 'use_skin',
	'type' => 'color');

$of_options[] = array( 'name' => '',

'desc' => __( 'Color 4', 'ishyoboy' ),

'id' => 'color4',

'std' => ISH_COLOR_4,

//'fold' => 'off_' . 'use_skin',

'type' => 'color');

And so by adding:

$of_options[] = array(  'name' => '',
	'desc' => __( 'Color 5', 'ishyoboy' ),
	'id' => 'color5',
	'std' => '#ffffff',
	//'fold' => 'off_' . 'use_skin',
	'type' => 'color');

$of_options[] = array(  'name' => '',
	'desc' => __( 'Color 6', 'ishyoboy' ),
	'id' => 'color6',
	'std' => '#ffffff',
	//'fold' => 'off_' . 'use_skin',
	'type' => 'color');

$of_options[] = array( 'name' => '',

'desc' => __( 'Color 5', 'ishyoboy' ),

'id' => 'color5',

'std' => '#ffffff',

//'fold' => 'off_' . 'use_skin',

'type' => 'color');

$of_options[] = array( 'name' => '',

'desc' => __( 'Color 6', 'ishyoboy' ),

'id' => 'color6',

'std' => '#ffffff',

//'fold' => 'off_' . 'use_skin',

'type' => 'color');

Now the hard part comes. You need to style ALL elements to be able to accept these colors. It can be done inside the following file:
wp-content\themes\nalleto\assets\wp\themes\default_colors.php

You need to explore the file and add the styles for color5 analogically and think of the scheme each element will be using when set as color5. What text color will be, what the background color will be, what the border color will be, etc..

Hey Buddy,

Thank you very much for the donation! We really appreciate it! Hope you managed to style the elements you needed.

Btw in our newest themes (Boldial and NO8) it is much much easier to add a new color (a question of 5 minutes). There are even a few empty slots by default for you to add it easily from the administration.

Cheers

If i buy the Boldial Theme – which would be the perfect design – will it understand the shortcodes form Nalleto or will i have to redesign all the pages ?

Hey,

Unfortunately Boldial comes with a brand new Page Builder (Visual Composer) and this is the reason why we could not port the shortcodes in a way to make them compatible :(

So you would have to recreate the content using the Page Builder.

Hey,

We are very happy to hear that! We try to make each our theme better than the previous one so we’re glad we managed to make it easier for you. And the color handling gives you much more freedom now ;) So have fun using the theme!

And yes, the color management for nalleto.. tell me about it ;) We had to ensure styles for all elements and possibilities.

Cheers
