CookieChimp’s dashboard allows you to customise the look and feel of the banner and modal. However, if you want to go beyond the options provided, you can use custom CSS.

​
How do I enable dark mode?

The widget includes light and dark themes. Enable dark mode by adding cc--darkmode class to the HTML element. You can also enabled auto dark mode by in the CookieChimp dashboard. This will automatically enable dark mode when the user’s device is set to dark mode.

​
What CSS variables can I customize?

Develop your own theme by modifying/overriding CSS variables.

}
