How to override colors (primary / secondary etc... ) with NuxtJs and Vue Pro ?


Mikołaj Smoleński staff commented 3 years ago

To override theme colors you have to change the scss variables ($primary, $secondary, etc) in scss/free/_variables.scss file and then compile scss to css with your favourite tool. You can also use our webpack starter for this purpose. https://github.com/mdbootstrap/mdb-webpack-starter#custom-theme

Second option is to build your own theme using our theming system: https://mdbootstrap.com/docs/standard/content-styles/theme/

Thanks for your reply ! I'm using MDB 4. I do not have "scss/free/_variables.scss" file. The only one I have is "scss/pro/_variables.scss" or "scss/core/_variables.scss" where I can't find colors variables ($primary / $secondary / ...). I have tried to update these variables in "scss/core/_colors.scss" where I have the variables ($primary-color / $secondary-color / ...) but without no effects... I use NuxtJs, Vue Pro version and I have installed MDB using the pro quick start installation : https://mdbootstrap.com/docs/vue/getting-started/quick-start/. Here is my package.json : enter image description here and nuxt.config.js : enter image description here

In MDB4 colors are located inside scss/core/_colors.scss (exactly as You noticed). Unfortunately, to make MDB SCSS work directly in Nuxt project, You will have to make some steps manually. Here's a guide:

  1. In nuxt.config.js set mdbvue.css and mdbvue.bootstrap to false as wrote here: https://mdbootstrap.com/docs/vue/getting-started/quick-start/#nuxt
  2. Copy all scss directory from node_modules/mdbvue to your app's assets directory
  3. Import main scss (mdb-pro.scss) as a resource in nuxt.config.js following this guide: https://nuxtjs.org/docs/2.x/features/configuration
  4. Finally, you should be able to change colors inside _colors.scss file and compile scss to css correctly.

Keep coding, Mikołaj from MDB
