Configuration Process
Follow these steps to configure your Unmixer widget:
Access Widget Configuration
Navigate to your account page and click "Create Widget" or go directly to https://trycolors.com/configure-widget (opens in a new tab).
Set Widget Name
Enter a name for your widget. This will only be displayed in your account settings.
Specify Domain
Enter the domain where the widget will be embedded. Use the format http://
or https://
followed by your domain name (e.g., website.com
). For subdomains, use https://subdomain.domain.com
. Local development is supported with http://localhost
.
- No folders or trailing slashes are allowed in the domain field.
- Ports are not required and should not be included.
- Both production domains and
localhost
for local development are supported.
Ensure the domain is correctly specified to avoid embedding issues. Double-check that you've entered it exactly as it appears in your browser's address bar, minus any paths or ports.
Select Widget Type
Choose "Unmixer" as the widget type.
Choose Mixer Mode
Select either PRO or Basic mixing algorithm. For more information, refer to the Mixer Mode documentation.
Set Default Target Color
Enter a hex code in the format #RRGGBB for the default target color. This color will be pre-set for users when they use the "Get Mix" feature in the widget. You'll see this color immediately in the preview. Users can change this by clicking "Pick" in the widget.
Set Tinting Strength Mode
Choose between Uniform or Adjusted tinting strength calculation. See the Tinting Strength Mode documentation for details.
Set Max Colors Count
Specify the maximum number of colors that the engine can add to the mix when a user clicks the 'Get Mix' button.
Select Language
Choose the language for the widget UI: English, French, Romanian, Spanish, German, Russian, Chinese, or Japanese. This affects buttons and labels, not color names.
Choose Palette
Select one of your starting palettes for the widget. If you haven't created a custom palette, refer to the Starting Palette documentation.

Review your settings in the real-time preview on the right side of the page. Click "Create" for a new widget or "Update" for an existing one.
