Theme settings

Override how the active theme renders an individual page

Most theme settings apply to your whole site — global colours, fonts, header behaviour, footer content, and anything else the theme exposes. Per-page theme settings let you override those defaults for a single page.

When to use them

Use a per-page override when one page genuinely needs to look or behave differently:

  • A landing page with a different header style.
  • A campaign page using a different colour palette.
  • An event page that hides the global navigation.

If you need a page to differ from the site's defaults in a way the theme doesn't expose, that's a theme-level change rather than a per-page one — see Themes.

What you can override

The available overrides depend on your theme. Themes expose the settings their authors expect to vary per page. Common examples:

  • Header style or whether the header is shown.
  • Footer style or whether the footer is shown.
  • Page background colour or accent colour.
  • Whether the page uses a constrained or full-width layout.

Settings the theme has not opted to expose at the page level stay controlled globally.

Setting a page-level override

Open a page in the editor and find its Theme settings tab. The available fields reflect what the active theme exposes. Changing a value here affects only this page.

Leaving a field at its default lets the page inherit the global setting for that field. Changing the global setting later updates every page that hasn't overridden it.
