@Boris Belloc: Hi Demky! Could you please elaborate on 'can't close the popup'? That sounds like a bug, which we haven't encountered so far.

We're happy to help set up the widget for you if you like -- drop us a line at support@buymeacoffee.com

@Jijo Sunny (founder): see picture; user can't close this popup, that's very embarassing for me; I can't use a system so agresive.

it block my button and it can't be closed.

@Boris Belloc: We're fixing this. If you leave the message box blank when you generate the widget, it won't display a popup.

@Michael Edelstone: no just no; let developers choose their color theme.

@Michael Edelstone: I agree. We ran a private beta with color picker, but the results were really poor. We get why platforms like Twitter have limited color options. If you look at the current theme options, they're actually very original and clean.

@Jijo Sunny (founder): Yeah I've faced the same trade-offs myself as a designer in whitelabeling situations. I'd love if you guys darkened your existing colors a little bit to conform to 4.5:1 contrast ratio or at least get them all above 3:1. It will help sight-challenged visitors a lot.

@Michael Edelstone: You got it. Designers are on it.

@Michael Edelstone:I tend to disagree with you. Unless the colours are 'Trade Marks' registered to your brand, you should allow the users to customize them. Or perhaps you want to take the Microsoft philosophy 'We know better what is good for you". Look at this example - the 'Go to top' button should match the 'Buy Me a Coffee' one, and that would not affect accessibility, it would make the content more unitary and integrated.

@Alex Cuciurean: Disagree. Buy Me A Coffee is a platform, not a white label branding experience. It’s their users they need to be concerned about, and in my experience most brand guidelines would hurt users in this regard in terms of accessible contrast. They already aren’t doing a great job at this and I’d like them to move in a productive direction. What you’re saying is basically a separate issue entirely, i.e. they should include the back to top button in the list of things that take on your color choice. I’d encourage you to file that if it doesn’t exist.

@Michael Edelstone: Well, isn't this thread for it? "I would like to ask for a feature that can match the colour theme of my website using hex or any rgba support." I did a search on open topics and this seemed to be the one. My understanding was that you disagree with it because of accessibility which I don't believe it's the case. I would argue that a more opened approach that allows users to customize their colours is better (unless your marketing department tells you differently) In the end, the user still has the option to manually edit his WordPress css - but it's rather not user friendly and time consuming.

@Alex Cuciurean: If you’re talking about achieving the end result of your example (the back to top button matching the chosen color) by having unlimited access to the color palette, then we disagree. If your example is the main problem you’re having then i suggest making a new issue, because I agree the back to top button could pretty easily get wrapped into the color you choose from the limited options that the platform allows. I go back to this being a platform, and the brand of that platform and the users of that platform belong to Buy Me A Coffee. Controlling that is not only important for their brand but also for accessibility. Your view is also totally valid; I just disagree with that approach having worked on white label products and seeing how much that can hurt the platform’s brand and also the users of the institution’s customers.

@Jijo Sunny (founder): One BIG problem still exists ... There is no PINK option! I don't mind y'all giving us a selection range to choose from, but at least have of each popular color ... Pink, Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Purple, Tan/Brown, Gray and can't forget a minimalist Black/White.

@Michael Edelstone: No, on my website, I get to choose the colour scheme. I get to decide how the site looks. Because it's my website. If there's one element on a page with different colours or fonts from the rest, it sticks out like a sore thumb and looks awful – and I would rather just not use the Buy Me A Coffee widget at all than have that on my page.

@Kit Marsden: It's not your website; you don't have any domain control and can be refused service at any time. You are using a platform. Imagine if Facebook gave everybody infinite color controls. Literally no platform does this unless the purpose of the platform is to give you a domain name with your own website.

@Michael Edelstone: Incorrect; my website actually /is/ my website. It is my domain, and I have full control of the colour scheme. I don't have a 'Find me on Facebook' button on my website, for the same reason – the different colour would stand out and look crap.

@Kit Marsden: Why not just use whatever button component your website has natively and use the text “Buy me a coffee” or whatever. Or create a custom button to match Buy Me A Coffee with your own color scheme? Relying on the platform to support this level of customization, when it is so easily achievable (and desirable) on your own site, is a waste of their time.

It also really looks like you can change the font and hex colors right in the code before pasting the snippet into your site, if you know minimal HTML.

@wolfe with an e: Good point about the buttons - I'll pass this feedback to our designers. Thanks!
