How Do I Change the Text Color on My Horizontal Scroll Widget in Feedspace?

Overview

The Horizontal Scroll widget displays your review cards in a continuously looping ticker that moves across the page. Because the cards scroll past in sequence, visitors have only a brief moment to read each one. Clear, well-contrasted text is essential to make that reading experience effortless.

The Widget Color Customization section for the Horizontal Scroll widget provides two dedicated color pickers to control every piece of text on each scrolling card:

• Primary Text Color: Controls the review title and body text, the content that carries the core message of each testimonial as it scrolls by.
• Secondary Text Color: Controls the reviewer name, date, and any metadata displayed beneath the review body, giving you independent control over supporting details.

Separating these two controls lets you create a clear visual hierarchy on each card, for example using a bold dark tone for the review text and a softer muted tone for the reviewer name, without needing to override any global theme styles. The result is a ticker that is both easy to scan at a glance and consistent with your brand palette.

How to Change the Text Color for Your Horizontal Scroll Widget

Step 1: Open the Widgets Section

Log in to your Feedspace account. In the left-hand navigation, click Widgets to open the list of all widgets you have created.

Step 2: Edit Your Horizontal Scroll Widget

Find your Horizontal Scroll widget in the list. Click the Edit icon or the widget name to open its settings panel.

Step 3: Go to the Design Tab

Inside the widget editor, click the Design tab. This tab contains all visual customization options for the widget, including layout, card styling, and color settings.

Step 4: Locate the Widget Color Customization Section

Scroll down within the Design tab until you reach the Widget Color Customization section. This section contains the color pickers for the Horizontal Scroll widget’s text, background, and other visual elements.

Step 5: Set the Primary Text Color

Click the color picker next to Primary Text Color. This color applies to the review title and body text on every scrolling card. Choose a color that provides strong contrast against your card background so the review content is easy to read as the ticker moves.

Step 6: Set the Secondary Text Color

Click the color picker next to Secondary Text Color. This color applies to the reviewer name, date, and metadata shown below the review body. You can use a lighter or less prominent shade here to visually separate supporting details from the main review content.

Step 7: Save and Preview Your Changes

Once you are satisfied with both color selections, click Save. The updated colors are applied to your Horizontal Scroll widget immediately. Use the preview to confirm that the scrolling cards display the text in your chosen colors before publishing or embedding the widget.

What You Can Do Next

• Adjust the card background color to complement your new text colors and ensure strong contrast across every scrolling card in the ticker.
• Explore the other options in the Design tab, such as scroll speed and card spacing, to fine-tune the overall appearance and pacing of your Horizontal Scroll widget.
• Copy the embed code for your updated Horizontal Scroll widget and paste it into your website to publish the refreshed design for your visitors.
• Create a second Horizontal Scroll widget with a different color scheme to use on pages with a darker or lighter background, keeping your social proof on-brand across your entire site.
