On the left side of the screen you will see the menu with various options and on the right side you will see website preview. Any settings you change in the Customizer will affect entire website, which means all posts and pages, so we are referring to them as global customization settings.

Each change you make will automatically update website preview (page will be refreshed). When you are satisfied with the result click ‘Save & Publish’ and do not forget to make final preview outside customization frame and logged out of WordPress to see how the site would look like to your visitors.

The important feature of Wheelco is that any global setting can be overridden on any single post or page using setting keys which you will find in squared brackets next to setting names on the following pages.

Preformatted text presents possible values of setting keys. You will learn more about this overriding soon. Now, let’s explore customization settings.

Logo 

Attachment ID or URL

Here you should select main website logo. It is displayed on pages next to the menu, on preloader screen and on sticky header.

Alternate Sticky Header Logo

Attachment ID or URL

Here you should select website alternative logo.

This is usually light version of logo (which is supposed to be used on dark backgrounds). The logic is this:

1. If you do not have Alternative logo defined, main logo will be used in all cases
2. If you have Alternative logo defined, it will be used on top of the page when Content Below Menu and Sticky Header options are activated. This set up will also change the color of menu and widgets to light.

Primary Accent Color

Hexadecimal color code or color picker

Accent color is used as a color for links, icons, etc. If you define it, the accent color will influence the general color scheme of the site.

Secondary Accent Color
