A message like "Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted" indicates that the script can't successfully import your XML file under the current PHP memory limit. If you have access to the php.ini file, you can manually increase the limit; if you do not (your WordPress installation is hosted on a shared server, for instance), you might have to break your exported XML file into several smaller pieces and run the import script one at a time. For those with shared hosting, the best alternative may be to consult hosting support to determine the safest approach for running the import. A host may be willing to temporarily lift the memory limit and/or run the process directly from their end. -- [WordPress Codex: Importing Content](https://codex.wordpress.org/Importing_Content#Before_Importing) == Filters == The importer has a couple of filters to allow you to completely enable/block certain features: * `import_allow_create_users`: return false if you only want to allow mapping to existing users * `import_allow_fetch_attachments`: return false if you do not wish to allow importing and downloading of attachments * `import_attachment_size_limit`: return an integer value for the maximum file size in bytes to save (default is 0, which is unlimited) There are also a few actions available to hook into: * `import_start`: occurs after the export file has been uploaded and author import settings have been chosen * `import_end`: called after the last output from the importer 50 Unforgettable Color Palettes to Help You Design Your Own – Reflex The Best

Choosing The Right Color Palette for Your Design Project

While selecting a color palette without much consideration might be tempting, you must understand that your color choices must be intentional and informed.

Colors are much more than aesthetics. Choosing colors that achieve the desired impact and communicate the intended meaning requires careful and thoughtful selection.

The question then becomes — how do you find a color palette that aligns with your design needs and preferences? A great starting point is to establish a framework for understanding and organizing these palettes through categorization.

Color Palette Categories

Understanding color palette categorization allows you to identify palettes that align with your design requirements and broadens your creative horizons beyond your habitual preferences.

While there aren’t any hard or fast rules about categorizing the near-infinite number of possible color combinations, we can approach this in two ways — creating color palettes based on the color wheel or based on inspiration. Each has unique advantages.

Note: Most palettes will belong to more than one category across both categorization methods.

Categorizing Color Palettes Based on the Color Wheel

This method categorizes color palettes based on how the colors within the palette interact with the color wheel. For context, the color wheel is a circular illustration where the position of one or more colors relative to others depicts their relationships.

Here are some color palette categories based on this method.

1. Analogous Color Palettes

An analogous color palette, or related color scheme, is based on colors directly beside each other on the color wheel.

For example, in a basic color wheel that consists of primary and secondary colors, an analogous palette might consist of green, yellow, and orange.

Analogous color palette inspiration

These palettes are great for achieving color harmony and smooth transitions between the colors in your design.

2. Complementary Color Palettes

A complementary color palette, or contrasting color scheme, is based on colors opposite each other on the color wheel.

For example, in a basic color wheel that consists of primary and secondary colors, the complementary pairs would be green/red, yellow/purple, and blue/orange.

Complementary color palette inspiration

These palettes are great for achieving contrast in your designs while maintaining balance. As an additional tip, consider using your key color as the dominant hue while the others serve as complementary or accent colors.

3. Triadic Color Palettes

A triadic color palette consists of three evenly spaced colors along the color wheel. A simple way to find colors that fall within this category is to draw an equilateral triangle on the color wheel and select the colors at each point of the triangle.

For example, the primary colors on a basic color wheel (red, blue, and yellow) form a primary triad, while the secondary colors on a basic color wheel (orange, green, and purple) form a secondary triad.

Complementary: Triadic

These palettes are great because, if done right, they allow you to create versatility and depth in your designs without sacrificing harmony.

4. Tetradic Color Palettes

A tetradic, or double complementary, color palette is similar to the triadic color palette; however, this palette consists of four colors evenly spaced out on the color wheel.

The easiest way to find these colors is to start by selecting a base color and then choose three other colors equidistant from the base color on the color wheel.

For example, in a primary color wheel, if the base color is red, the other three colors in the tetradic palette would be green, blue, and yellow.

Tetradic palettes are great because they help you create vibrancy and visual interest through high contrast levels between the colors.

Categorizing Color Palettes Based on Inspiration

Another approach to categorizing color palettes is referencing the external sources of inspiration the palettes draw from.

Rather than starting with colors, this method observes objects, locations, events, etc., and uses the most prominent colors associated with them to form a palette.

Here are some categories based on this method:

1. Warm vs. Cool-Toned Color Palettes

The categorization of warm versus cool color palettes is based on the perceived temperatures of colors derived from how they are naturally observed.

For example, red, orange, and yellow are considered warm colors due to their natural association with heat, warmth, and fire. The meanings attributed to these colors extend beyond their natural occurrences and evoke sensations related to them, such as passion, anger, and energy.

On the other hand, cool colors are naturally associated with colder elements like water and sky. And similar to warm colors, these are also associated with certain feelings such as calmness, tranquility, and even elegance. Some examples include colors like blues and greens.

So, these palettes can then be used to help designers pass across a visual message that evokes these associated feelings.

Complementary: warm-vs-cool

2. Seasonal Color Palettes

Seasonal color palettes are unique combinations of colors inspired by specific seasons of the year. These palettes incorporate colors naturally associated with particular seasons to capture and evoke the period’s mood, atmosphere, and emotions.

With this category of color palettes, the geographic context of where the designs will be displayed is crucial because the audience’s familiarity with the referenced season determines their ability to relate to and resonate with the design.

For example, a palette that uses “autumn colors” (orange, red, yellow, and brown) will only be relevant in locations where the audience experiences and values the changing autumn leaves.

Complementary: seasonal

3. Thematic Color Palettes

Thematic color palettes are palettes inspired by a specific theme or concept.

While these palettes allow for endless creative possibilities, selecting a palette that resonates with your audience and effectively communicates the design’s narrative requires a deep understanding of your audience and project. It’s also important to note that these palettes often have to be used in collaboration with elements related to the referenced theme.

Some examples of thematic color palettes include retro-inspired, space-inspired, and even minimalistic.

thematic

Bonus category: Monochromatic Color Palettes

A monochromatic color palette modifies a base color using shades, tones, or tints to create variations of that single color.

For example, a monochromatic color palette might use the color pink as a base color and then incorporate other shades of pink by adding varying degrees of white, black, or gray.
