In this guide, we’ll walk you through the key features of the Astra Style Guide introduced in version 4.8.0.
This Style Guide is designed to simplify your website customization process, making it easier and quicker to manage your site’s basic design elements.
We’ll cover everything you need to know about using the Style Guide, including how it enhances navigation and customization, and why it focuses on specific settings.
What Does the Astra Style Guide Include?
The Astra Style Guide brings together all the essential settings like colors, site title, logo, buttons, and typography into one convenient location. Instead of searching through multiple menus, you can now manage these basic settings from a single page.
To access the Style Guide, from the WordPress dashboard, navigate to Astra > Customize, simply click the dedicated button in the customizer, and you’ll be taken straight to the page where you can adjust everything quickly and efficiently.
Why Does the Style Guide Only Cover Colors, Buttons, Typography, and Site Title & Logos?
You might be wondering why the Style Guide focuses only on certain settings. The answer lies in the toolโs design philosophy. The Style Guide is intended to streamline your workflow by consolidating the most commonly used and fundamental settings in one place.
This approach keeps the tool simple and user-friendly, ensuring that even beginners can easily navigate and make changes.
For more advanced or less frequently used settings, you can still access them through the traditional WordPress customizer. The customizer remains a comprehensive tool for those who need to dive deeper into their site’s design and functionality.
What If I Need to Customize More Advanced Settings?
The Style Guide is just one part of Astraโs powerful customization. While it focuses on basic settings, the customizer is still available for more detailed adjustments.
Whether you want to fine-tune your site’s layout, add custom CSS, or make other advanced changes, the customizer offers the flexibility you need.
We hope this guide has been helpful in explaining the Astra Style Guide and how it can make your website customization process easier.
