Customize GoHighLevel Calendar Colors

If you are moving from tools like ClickUp or other scheduling platforms, you can easily brand and organize your appointment view with GoHighLevel calendar colors. This guide walks you step by step through changing the color settings inside the calendar configuration so you can quickly distinguish appointment types and statuses for your team and your clients.

Using color-coding correctly helps users understand the calendar at a glance, reduces confusion, and keeps your booking system aligned with your visual identity. Follow the instructions below to set everything up inside your GoHighLevel account using the built-in Calendar Settings options.

Understanding GoHighLevel Calendar Color Options

Within the GoHighLevel calendar configuration, you can adjust several color-related options. These settings control how appointments appear and how easy it is to scan your schedule. The main color features you will use are:

• Display preferences for Calendar colors and Labels
• Booked appointment color
• Confirmed appointment color
• Arrival in progress color
• Complete appointment color

All these options are available inside the calendar's advanced settings screen. You can choose simple colors using color pickers or enter a specific hex code if you need to match exact brand colors.

How to Access Calendar Settings in GoHighLevel

Before you can customize any color settings, you need to open the calendar you wish to edit within GoHighLevel. The process is straightforward and the same for most calendar types.

1. Log in to your GoHighLevel account.

2. Navigate to the menu where your calendars are listed.

3. Select the specific calendar you want to edit.

4. Open the calendar configuration or Settings area.

5. Locate the section labeled Calendar Settings.

Once you reach the Calendar Settings area, you will see options related to how your booking page and schedule are displayed, including the color configuration panel.

Configure Calendar Colors in GoHighLevel

After you access the Calendar Settings, you can begin customizing how calendar colors appear. This is where you define the visual rules for different appointment states and labels.

Choose Between Calendar Colors and Labels in GoHighLevel

The Display option gives you control over how appointments are visually represented. You can choose from:

• Calendar colors only – appointments are color-coded without textual labels.
• Label only – appointments display label text without color fills.
• Calendar colors and Labels – combines both color coding and labels for the clearest view.

For most users, the best option is to show both calendar colors and labels so team members can quickly understand each appointment type.

Set Booked Appointment Color in GoHighLevel

The Booked color applies to new appointments that have been scheduled but not yet confirmed. To customize this color:

1. Find the Booked color setting in the Calendar Settings panel.

2. Click the color box or picker.

3. Select a color from the palette, or enter a hex code that matches your brand.

4. Apply or save the change so all booked appointments use the new color.

Choose a color that is easy to distinguish from the other appointment states so users can instantly recognize newly scheduled bookings.

Set Confirmed Appointment Color in GoHighLevel

The Confirmed color is used for appointments where the client has verified or confirmed attendance. To edit this:

1. Locate the Confirmed color option.

2. Click the color field to open the color picker.

3. Pick a color that signals certainty or readiness, such as green or any brand-compliant shade.

4. Save your settings to update all confirmed appointments.

This distinct color helps your team see which time slots are fully locked in.

Configure Arrival In Progress Color in GoHighLevel

The Arrival in progress color indicates that a client is currently on their way or at your location. To customize this state:

1. Find the Arrival in progress color setting.

2. Open the color picker by clicking the color swatch.

3. Select a noticeable color that stands out from both booked and confirmed states.

4. Save your change so any appointment marked as arrival in progress updates visually.

Using a clear, attention-grabbing color for this status helps teams prepare for incoming clients more efficiently.

Set Completed Appointment Color in GoHighLevel

The Complete color appears when an appointment has been successfully finished. This final state is useful for tracking your day and avoiding double work.

1. Locate the Complete color configuration option in the same Calendar Settings section.

2. Click the color box to open the color picker.

3. Choose a softer or neutral color so completed appointments remain visible but do not distract from upcoming bookings.

4. Save your changes so all completed appointments reflect the new color.

By clearly differentiating completed appointments, your GoHighLevel calendar becomes a timeline of what has already been handled versus what still needs attention.

Best Practices for GoHighLevel Calendar Color Coding

When you configure colors for multiple appointment statuses, keep these best practices in mind to maintain a clean and understandable view:

• Use consistent color logic – for example, green for confirmed or completed, yellow or orange for arrival in progress, and another color for booked.
• Avoid overly similar colors – pick contrasting shades so that booked, confirmed, arrival, and completed states are easy to see side by side.
• Align with brand identity – where possible, match your main brand colors without sacrificing clarity.
• Test on multiple screens – verify that colors are readable on desktop, tablet, and mobile devices.
• Train your team – share a quick legend so staff understand what each color means in the GoHighLevel calendar.

Well-chosen colors make your GoHighLevel booking environment easier to navigate and reduce the chance of missed or mishandled appointments.
