New Color Input configuration options

December 18th, 2025 | Changelog

This release added the palette and hide_picker configuration keys for Color Inputs, improved filter behavior for straight and curly quote marks, changed how CloudCannon determines developer files, added better warning messages, and improved overall app performance.

It also addressed several issues, including those affecting SSG suggestions, File Card icons in the Collection Browser, endless loading states after a failed Sync, and .yml and .json Schema files.

Features & Improvements#

  • You can now configure the palette option for Color Inputs. This key provides a palette below the color picker for important color values.
  • You can now configure the hide_picker option for Color Inputs with the palette option configured. This key toggles whether CloudCannon displays the color spectrum picker and the palette. When set to true, the Color Input will only display the palette.

}
  • When using a filter to search files or Sites in one of CloudCannon's Browsers, the filter will now return results for straight quotation marks ( ' or " ) and curly quotation marks ( ’ or ”) whenever a string contains either type of quote character.
  • CloudCannon no longer automatically treats files in a folder called components as developer files.
  • Added a warning message to the Site Navigation when your Site uses features that require the new version of CloudCannon.
  • Improved overall app performance.
