Status/Label Color Options

Is there any work around or plugin that can help resolve Monday’s lackluster color coding implementation for status/label dropdowns? Maybe I’m “holding it wrong”, but my two biggest issues are:

  1. Sometimes I need 1 or more items in a list to have the same color code. Seems like a silly restriction.

  2. For the love of God, not every item in every list needs a corresponding background color. Sometimes I’d like a dropdown selection to have no background color. Some of my boards could benefit from not looking like a Care Bear puked all over them.

  3. Give me an option to pick some of my own colors in addition to the default color pallet. That’s a table stakes feature everywhere else.

All that being said, I still feel like I’m doing something wrong because this all seems so obvious and trivial.

Hi @cire12

We’re cracking up :rofl:, but we hear you!

It’s worth posting that in the ‘Feature Request’ category, you may get some traction on it.

Can’t help you with picking your own colour for a status label, but we might be able to help you orientate yourself and act as a sounding board for sanity’s sake!

Give us a shout to sit with someone here: teameasy@easy-mondays.com

Have a relaxing weekend :sunrise_over_mountains:

Thanks, I did come across this exact same request in that channel. Originally posted in 2021, but only 59 votes :cry:.
