Theming GoHighLevel used to mean a developer, a stylesheet and a prayer before every platform update. Here is the whole process as it works today: one snippet pasted once at the agency level, a visual editor on top of your live dashboard, and a save that reaches every sub-account you have.

If branding your platform takes longer than onboarding a client, the tool is wrong. Five minutes from paste to a branded dashboard is the bar.

Before You Start

You need your own HighLevel agency account with a white-label domain (the Unlimited plan and up) and agency admin access. Theme Studio installs at the agency level, so a single sub-account under someone else's agency cannot run it. Nothing is installed on your clients' side.

Step 1: Paste the Snippet

After activation you get an install snippet. In HighLevel open Agency Settings, then Company, then Custom JavaScript. Paste the snippet, save, and reload the page. That is the entire installation; it covers every sub-account and every user on your domain.

Step 2: Pick a Starting Point

Open Theme Studio from your agency dashboard. You have two ways in:

  • Ready-made themes: Twenty light and dark starting points. Pick the one closest to your brand and adjust from there.

  • Brand AI: Describe your brand or paste your website, and a starting theme is generated with your colors and fonts.

  • Customize: Colors, fonts, sidebar and menu, icons, header, buttons and links, page and cards, logo and browser icon.

Step 3: Save Where It Belongs

Save as the agency default and every sub-account inherits the look on its next page load. Open a client's sub-account and save there instead to give that client a theme of their own. One license covers unlimited sub-accounts, users and client themes.

What Stays Native, On Purpose

Funnel, website, form, email and workflow builders keep their own look, as do the app marketplace and HighLevel's native mobile apps. Theme Studio changes how supported web screens look, not what they do: your contacts, pipelines and automations are untouched, and switching the theme off returns stock HighLevel immediately.

Three Mistakes to Avoid

The install is simple; the judgment calls are where new users slip:

  • Pasting at the sub-account level: The snippet belongs in Agency Settings. Pasting it in one location themes one location and leaves the rest stock.

  • Picking a theme by taste, not by brand: Start from your website's colors and fonts, even if a darker theme looks better in the editor. Clients recognize consistency.

  • Skipping the login page: It is the screen clients see most often and the one agencies theme last. Export the login design and apply it before you show anyone.

Checking Your Work

Log in as a client on your white-label domain. Check the login page, the dashboard, a dropdown, a modal and a settings screen. If something looks wrong, adjust it in the editor and save again. Every future HighLevel change is tracked on our side, so the check you did today keeps holding.

From checkout to a branded dashboard is about five minutes. The three included tools, the Onboarding Widget, Sub-Account Logos and Pipeline Timers, ship with the same snippet.
