In this article, we will present the main CSS classes, how to change the style, and some examples of customization of Live Chat.

Summary:

To change the chat style via CSS you can add the <style> tag next to the embed code in your post or you can insert the classes inside the <head> and <style> tag of your website's source code.

Inserting the <style> tag next to the publication

For this example, we added the <style> tag (1) within the same page where we publish the embed code of the chat (2).

Inserting the classes next to the source code of the site

Header Color

div.chat-room--chat--header{
background-color: #BDBDBD !important;
}

Next to the header, we have a container border that inherits the main color settings, to change it just include the class:

div.arena-chat-widget--container{
border-top: 1px solid #BDBDBD !important;
}


Main Live Chat background-color

This class changes the background color of the main chat structure and most of the tabs.

Class:

div.live-chat-room{

background:#fcfcfc;
}


Input messages field background

Class:

div.live-chat-room-input--input--wrapper{
background: #607D8B;
}


Tabs:

Main tab settings:

div.chat-room--tabs--tabs{
background: #263238;
border-color: #fcfcfc;
color: #fcfcfc;
}

if there are direct and channels, the style of the main tab must also be configured:

div.chat-room--tabs--tab{
background: #263238;
border-color: #fcfcfc;
color: #fcfcfc;
}
