Reset a metabox color picker to “none” instead of #191919 in functions.php

    My theme has a really annoying color pre setting (a colour picker) that I want to change without making changes to the parent theme.
    My question is if the below is possible to change within the functions.php ?

    Set a metabox colurpicker to “none” 'default' => '' instad of 'default' => '#191919'

    The original code is in a file in parent theme called metaboxes.php and looks like this:

    $cmb_title->add_field( array(
	    'name' => __( 'Title Text Color', 'wassap' ),
	    'id'   => $prefix . 'color',
	    'type' => 'colorpicker',
	    'default'  => '#191919'
	) );

    And again – what I want to do is to set the default to 'default' => '' with the help of funcions.php if that is possible!

    Thank you

    Hi johan,

    I need to check function of this code and also need to be check which action or filter it is used.

    So, please provide me those details so I can help to resolve your issue.

    It can definitely be done but you’ll need to tell me the metabox ID. Find the part where you see $cmb_title = new_cmb2_box(… and let me know what the 'id' property is for the box. I’ll also need to know what the $prefix value is (look for the place where you see $prefix = 'SOMEVALUE_';).

    Hello and thanks for your replies!
    @jtsternberg
    I guess you mean this part?

    Prefix:
    $prefix = '_weston_header_';

    Is this the ID you mean:

    	$cmb_title = new_cmb2_box( array(
		'id'            => $prefix . 'options',
		'title'         => __( 'Title Area Options', 'weston' ),
		'object_types'  => array( 'page', 'project', 'post', 'product'), // Post type
		'context'       => 'normal',
		'priority'      => 'high',
		'show_names'    => true
	) );

    That should do it as long as the prefixes match. So this should do it:

    
function yourprefix_update_header_color_field_default() {
	$cmb = cmb2_get_metabox( '_weston_header_options' );
	if ( $cmb ) {
		$cmb->update_field_property( '_weston_header_color', 'default', '' );
	}
}
add_action( 'cmb2_init_before_hookup', 'yourprefix_update_header_color_field_default' );

    Don’t know if you need this but this is the whole part reguarding the Header Options and Title Options…

    //Header Options

add_action( 'cmb2_init', 'weston_register_header_metabox' );
function weston_register_header_metabox() {

    @jtsternberg
    got it! I gave you the wring prefix I think. Just changed it to the _weston_title_ instead and now its working!

    function no_default_color() {
	$cmb = cmb2_get_metabox( '_weston_title_options' );
	if ( $cmb ) {
		$cmb->update_field_property( '_weston_title_color', 'default', '' );
	}
}
add_action( 'cmb2_init_before_hookup', 'no_default_color' );
