Enterprise Solution: Setting Up and Managing Brand Kits
Manage shared colors and text styles across Wix Studio sites from a centralized place in your enterprise dashboard. Brand Kits let you set up your brand styles once, connect the relevant sites or templates, and apply updates when your brand changes. This helps you keep your branding consistent across different sites, while each site keeps its own layout and content.
Creating a brand kit
Create a brand kit in your enterprise dashboard, then open it in a separate editor session to set up its colors and text styles. Wix creates a hidden site for the brand kit in the background. After you save your changes, return to the Brand Kits page to connect sites and manage updates.
To create a brand kit:
Go to Brand Kits in your enterprise dashboard.
Click New Brand Kit.
Enter your Brand Kit Name.
Click Create.
Click Edit in Studio Editor to start creating.
Customizing your brand design
Set your brand colors and text styles in the Site Styles panel of the brand kit's editor, so you can apply them consistently across connected sites.
To customize your brand design:
Go to Brand Kits in your enterprise dashboard.
Click the relevant brand.
Click Edit in Studio Editor.
Click Site Styles
on the left side of the editor.
Set your brand colors, fonts and text styles.
Click Save.
In the confirmation window, stay in the editor or click Go to Brand Kit to return to the Brand Kits page.
Connecting sites to a brand kit
Connect existing Wix Studio sites or templates to apply your brand kit’s global colors and typography. A new editor revision is created for each connected site, but the sites are not published automatically.
To connect sites to a brand kit:
Go to Brand Kits in your enterprise dashboard.
Click Manage Brand Kit on the relevant brand kit.
Click the Connected Sites tab.
Click + Connect Sites.
Click the Sites or Custom Templates tab.
Select the checkboxes next to the sites or templates you want to connect.
Click Continue.
Click Connect sites.
Note:
The Connect Sites button is disabled if the brand kit has unpublished changes. Apply the pending update to all connected sites first, then connect new ones.
Updating connected sites
When you change the brand design in the editor, connected sites do not update automatically. Review the pending changes and apply them when you are ready.
To update connected sites:
Go to Brand Kits in your enterprise dashboard.
Click Manage Brand Kit on the relevant brand kit.
Click Edit in Studio Editor.
Click Site Styles
on the left side of the editor.
Update your brand colors or text styles and save your changes.
Back in the brand kit, click Update Sites next to Update your connected sites.
Click Update Sites on the popup.
Notes:
If you remove a color that site elements were using, those elements revert to the first global color in the brand kit.
A new editor revision is created on each connected site. Review each site in the editor and publish it manually when you are ready.
Managing your brand kit
Rename the brand, disconnect individual sites, or delete the brand kit when it is no longer needed directly from the Brand Kits page.
To manage a brand kit:
Go to Brand Kits in your enterprise dashboard.
Click Manage Brand Kit on the relevant brand kit.
Choose what you want to do:
Rename the brand kit: Click the More Actions
icon at the top right, click Rename Brand Kit, enter the new name, and click Save.
Delete the brand kit: Click the More Actions icon
at the top right, click Delete Brand Kit.
Disconnect a site: Click the Connected sites tab, click the More Actions
icon next to the relevant site, and click Disconnect from Brand Kit.
Note:
When you disconnect a site or delete a brand kit, the site keeps its current colors and typography. The site stops receiving brand updates, and its Site Styles panel becomes editable again.
Deleting a brand kit disconnects all connected sites at once.
FAQs
Click a question below to learn more about Brand Kits.
Why can’t I edit colors or fonts on my site?
If your site is connected to a brand kit, its global colors and typography are managed from the brand kit. You can edit those styles on the site again only after it is disconnected from the brand kit.
Do brand updates publish automatically?
No. Updating a brand kit creates a new editor revision on each connected site. Review each site in the editor and publish it manually when you are ready.
Can I connect a site to more than one brand kit?
No. Each site can be connected to only 1 brand kit at a time.
What happens if I delete a brand kit?
All sites connected to that brand kit are disconnected automatically. Each site keeps its current colors and typography, and its Site Styles panel becomes editable again.
Can I use Brand Kits with Multisite Networks?
Yes. You can connect a brand kit to a template, but not directly to network sites. When you update the brand kit, apply the changes to the connected template. Then, update the network sites with the latest template revision so they receive the brand changes.
Who can create and manage brand kits?
There are two permission levels for Brand Kits. Users with View Brand Kits can view brand kits and connect or disconnect sites. Users with Manage Brand Kits can also create, rename, and delete brand kits, edit brand styles, and push updates to connected sites. If you have neither permission, Brand Kits won't appear in your dashboard at all. Contact your account owner to update your permissions.
Can I create more than 1 brand kit?
Yes. You can create and manage multiple brand kits, which is helpful if you work with different clients or want to keep separate brand identities organized. You can have up to 20 brand kits in total.
