How to assign new colour?

Open the page to edit tags or categories and change the colour in the column « Color ».

How does intelligent colour selection work?

The plugin does check if the category name contains one of the keywords and sets the pre-defined colour for this category.
For example, a category that contains Facebook will be coloured to a dark blue colour. -

Use WordPress default function: get_term_meta($term_id, ‘cc_color’, true);
