How to add color pickers to WordPress forms
The short answer
You can add a basic colour picker with an HTML input type="color", but your form plugin must also process and email the field value. For palettes, RGB or HSL values, previews and reliable storage, use a form builder field or a dedicated colour-picker add-on.
What you need
- A WordPress form plugin or builder with an HTML or custom field option
- Administrator access to WordPress
- A test email address or saved-entry screen
- The colour format your form should store
