Adds more colors to Google Calendar's color selection menu.
HOW TO USE:
This extension adds the ability to insert custom colors into Google Calendar events. Upon installing the extension, you might need to refresh Google Calendar for it to load.
Once the extension has been installed, you can access the custom color creation by either right clicking events (accessing the color palette), or double clicking the event and accessing the other color palette within the advanced event details page.
You can verify that the extension has been installed properly by the existence of an additional circle in the color palette with a plus (+) sign. Clicking on this plus sign should prompt you to insert a custom color defined by a hexcode (For example, typing 000000 will give you the color black. One recommended place to find colors is https://htmlcolorcodes.com/). Pressing "OK" on the color entry prompt will add this custom color to your color palette for coloring events.
You can remove custom colors from your color palette by clicking on the extension icon in your browser's extension bar. This will open a small window where clicking on a color will remove it from the extension and your color palette.

This extension worked great for day or two (it's been 2 weeks). The calendar was coordinated by project so I was able to easily identify my appointments at a glance. The colours revert back to the default cal colour quickly. I have tried uninstalling & reinstalling after the 7/22 "bug fix" - it doesn't work & recco settings of google sync are all enabled.
5 Star for EFFORT... Thank you for taking the time to make this. **Amended** Sorry to report after 8 hours I revisited the calendar and 90% of the colour changes have been lost. 3 Star for functionality - July 2022 First ever install. Deliberately tried to experience some of the failures that other reviewers have reported. Thus far it has been working OK. Minor glitch changed color of previous entry as I edited the next but apart from that seems to be working well. Improvements such as changing white font to dark when background color is light would be great. But in the meantime. Good for the gettin'
At first it wasn't working properly but meanwhile it's working. I would love a transparancy toggle
I love the idea. I have an outlook calendar for work that's colour-coded. Due to high security in my office, I can't synch my outlook calendar to Google, so I forward all relevant appointments & invites to Google. I wanted to match the colour-coding with Outlook (I have like 15 different categories on outlook, Google only has 9-ish colours?) Anyways, great idea however when I go to change the colour of one appointment, it ends up changing a bunch of unrelated ones... at first I thought it automatically changed any appts coming from my outlook email, however some didn't change. it seems completely random as to which appts the extension is colour-coding :(
doesn't work anymore :( I used this to color code EVERYTHING in my google calendar and everything was going fine for about two months. Now I can't add any of my custom colors to new events, and all of my events that I had changed to custom colors before are all also the same original color now
I refreshed chrome, i uninstalled and reinstalled the extension 10 times, i restarted my computer. I've done everything. The extension never worked.
This extension was great for a few months. My calendar was color coordinated by project so I was able to easily identify my appointments at a glance. Then all of a sudden it quit working. Tried uninstalling & reinstalling - it didn't work. Unfortunately, when I uninstalled the extension, it removed all of the custom colors from my previous appointments. Truthfuly, we shouldn't have to rely on an extension to be able to have custom colors for our calendars. So I'm more frustrated with the limitations of Google calendar than I am with the extension.
I love this extension so much! It's currently not working for me though, Google erased all of my set hex codes and I no longer have the + option to add a new colour. Have permissions for this extension been removed? Would love to use it again
It does not work at all. It shows no colors and just says click on color to remove it. super disappointed this isnt working. Ive deleted and redownloaded twice and still no luck.
Loved this ext at first. Having additional colors to organize with, and colors I actually like, was amazing, so I was so disappointed when the color coding kept reverting back to default color when I refreshed or logged back into Calendar. I see from the other reviews that I am not alone, and there is no long-term fix. I will be uninstalling and keeping my fingers crossed for an ext that actually works.
