How do I change Live Chat colors, text or avatar styling?

Edit the selected message template’s appearance for this source.

Before you start

Open the intended collection and prepare sample content for a rehearsal. Confirm the controls are available in your installed version.

Where to find it

Live Chat Properties > Message template > settings gear.

Steps

  1. Choose the intended Live Chat template.
  2. Open the settings gear and select the element to customize.
  3. Adjust its offered fonts, colors, shapes, images or effects and check the preview.
  4. Save the appearance editor, then save source Properties.

Check the result

The selected source uses the customized appearance.

Helpful information

Names, messages, avatars and paid labels fill automatically. Keep save-to-library unchecked for source-local edits. Changing the selected template clears its previous appearance overrides.

If something is wrong

Check element selection and complete numeric values. Missing optional chat data can hide an element; use Demo messages to compare message kinds.
