Add possibility of coloring dashboards

It would be great to be able to change the color of the dashboard widget title.

Hi again, Nuno! What kind of colors would you want to see, and what would you use them for? Looking forward to learning more! 😃

Hello.

It would just be a good way to visually/graphically highlight the different widgets.

I would also love this feature - it is difficult to differentiate between projects in the dashboard view.  For me, it would be for ease of use.  It might also be useful to be able to assign a color to a team member so that they can see their work quickly

Thank for the response, Stephen and I will certainly look at those options.  I'm not sure the "Current User" one will work as a couple of team members need to see all activity and others just need to see their own.

I added a color as you suggested:

I would love if the top header took on the color of the project!

It would really be great to be able to apply colors to a dashboard.  We perform a lot of calendar blocking by project/meeting and it would be nice to tie the two areas together.  Is this a feature for consideration based on the feedback above?

Hi Kelly, thanks for writing in! This isn't on the roadmap for Dashboards, but our team is thinking about colors in the workspace in general right now, so this feedback ties in with those conversations. I don't have any updates to share at the moment, but I've passed this suggestion to the team :)

This really needs to get addressed. The latest update that came through has the almost the entire Dashboard as white where there were some colors before. Why did you take my colors away?? I don't know who thought this was a good idea, but it's pretty disappointing to see the platform taking steps backwards for no apparent reason. Come on...

The ability to change the color of the frame of each WIDGET will help differentiating widgets more quickly.

Would be very helpful to see you offer color coding for the widget titles in the Dashboards. I might switch to another service if it’s not an option. Colors are vital.

Would love to be able to color code my widgets in my dashboards. For example - Yellow for "New" tasks, Red for "Past Due items" Green for "Important tasks" etc. Or even just having different color coding options that could be customizable for our needs. Right now, the widgets are just white and the only way to differentiate is by the title of the widget.  

please do this!!!! color coding would be so helpful

Hi everyone! 

Thank you for supporting this suggestion. With New Dashboards, you can choose from different visualization options to also differentiate your widgets:

Additionally, you can change the height and width of your widgets. You can learn more about New Dashboards in our dedicated Community post.

Would these options be of help?

Please, let us know!

I agree, I would love to be able to have widgets that are project related highlighted in one color and tasks in another. We have a team dashboard that shows your own tasks and projects as well as an overview of the entire team's workload and any overdue tasks. It would be great to be able to differentiate these widgets with either color headers or pale colors behind the text that can be customized.

Thanks for your feedback Nicole S, I've shared it with the responsible team 👍

Could you please let me know if you're using classic or new dashboards?

Hi,

On similar lines to what the team's are asking we have a case where we would like to pick the color of the dashboard data and give the option to choose your project/folder colors in Wrike to help identify the projects with the color coding we have set, This will be especially helpful in team boards and dashboards like below for project capacity

Hi Piyush Menon, thank you for your feedback! I've passed it over to our dedicated team 👍
