Customizing the WordPress Admin Area

I'm having trouble answering these 2 question (fill in the blank):

1: "When you are styling a color scheme, it is a good idea to know the _______ value of the colors for your brand or theme."

I've tried "initial" but it didn't work.

2: "The__________ function is used in the functions.php file when creating a new admin color scheme from scratch."

I've used function "wpt_admin_color_schemes()" and it didn't work also

Help Please!

  1. I believe it is asking for the color format--i.e., the type of value you would enter if you were writing this into your stylesheet (for example, hexadecimal, rgb, rgba).

  2. The function you would want to use is wp_admin_css_color. This is the function that enables you to create your own color scheme.
