This is such an important part of giving any site a consistent look-and-feel, and such a pain to have to stop and check my list every time I need a color. Does everyone else just memorize lists of hex codes or what? And when you google around for ways to customize the color picker, the instructions are to modify core files (and then re-modify them with every update), which is just a terrible idea. Thank you, thank you, thank you for making this plugin, it fixes something that is (imo) a huge oversight on the part of the WP dev team. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/78f7d1b406d12d237db6d11d67d082c00895249df487096665df4cadde9e2739? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Works Great](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/works-great-3494/)󠁿 [digitalwiz](https://profiles.wordpress.org/digitalwiz/) January 18, 2017 I am using this with WordPress 4.7.1 using the Jupiter theme.
