ContentBlocks ContentBlocks 2.x Plugins Background

The Background plugin sets a background color on visual inputs in the block it is applied to. The background color to use comes from an input you define (typically, a color or select input).

The Color plugin is very similar but affects the text color instead of the background.

This plugin applies to a specific block by adding it to its configuration.

#Accepted options

• inputKey: the key of the input that holds the color to apply. This defaults to background.
• inputValueKey: the key of the value in the input that holds the color to apply. This defaults to value which is correct for the majority of input types.
