Terrifico → Theme Options. Nothing changes on your site until you click Save; the counter next to it shows how many settings are unsaved. A changed setting shows a Reset link that puts it back to the default. Open your site in another tab and reload it after saving to see the result.
Use Search settings at the top to jump to any setting by name.
Colors and fonts are also pushed into Elementor's global colors and fonts, so anything built with Elementor globals follows Theme Options automatically.
Global
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Site layout | Full width, or Boxed: the site sits on a background |
| Boxed width · Background around the box | Only for the boxed layout |
| Content width | Maximum width of the content area |
| Corner roundness | Rounding of cards, images and form fields |
| Button roundness | Use the maximum for pill-shaped buttons |
| Button size | Small, medium or large |
| Uppercase button text | On or off |
Colors
Out of the box Terrifico is plain and minimal: white background, black text and buttons, light grey panels and lines. Importing a demo sets its own palette.
Primary, Secondary, Accent, Headings, Body text, Muted text, Background, Surface (soft panels), Borders, Dark sections, and Text on dark sections.
Keep enough contrast between text and background: body text should be at least 4.5:1 against the background (any online contrast checker will tell you).
Typography

|---|---|
| Body font · Body text size | Main text |

| Line height | Body text line spacing |
| Heading case · Heading letter spacing | Uppercase or normal headings, tracking |

Fonts are Google Fonts, downloaded to your own server the first time you save. Visitors never connect to Google, so no consent banner is needed for them.
