The Para Modal provides extensive customization options through the paraModalConfig prop passed to the ParaProvider. You can customize everything from colors and themes to authentication flows and security features.
Para Modal Customization

​
Basic Setup

Pass the paraModalConfig object to your ParaProvider to customize the modal: 
<ParaProvider
  paraClientConfig={{
    apiKey: process.env.REACT_APP_PARA_API_KEY || "",
  }}
  config={{
    appName: "Your App Name"
  }}
  paraModalConfig={{
    logo: "https://yourdomain.com/logo.png",
    theme: {
      backgroundColor: "#ffffff",
      foregroundColor: "#000000",
      accentColor: "#007AFF"
    },
    // ... other customization options
  }}
>
  {children}
</ParaProvider>

​
Configuration Options

A full list of available configuration options for the paraModalConfig prop available on the ParaProvider component:

​
Logo Configuration

paraModalConfig={{
  logo: "https://yourdomain.com/logo.png"
}}
For optimal display, use a logo image with dimensions of 372px × 160px.

​
Authentication Options

​
OAuth Methods

paraModalConfig={{
  oAuthMethods: ["GOOGLE", "TWITTER", "DISCORD", "APPLE"]
}}
Available OAuth providers:
  • GOOGLE - Google OAuth
  • TWITTER - Twitter/X OAuth
  • APPLE - Apple OAuth
  • DISCORD - Discord OAuth
  • FACEBOOK - Facebook OAuth
  • FARCASTER - Farcaster OAuth
  • TELEGRAM - Telegram OAuth

​
Email and Phone Login

paraModalConfig={{
  disableEmailLogin: false,
  disablePhoneLogin: true, // Only allow email and OAuth
  oAuthMethods: ["GOOGLE", "TWITTER"]
}}

​
Default Authentication Identifier

paraModalConfig={{
  defaultAuthIdentifier: "user@example.com" // or "+15555555555"
}}
Phone numbers should be in international format: +15555555555

​
Authentication Layout

paraModalConfig={{
  authLayout: ["AUTH:CONDENSED", "EXTERNAL:FULL"]
}}
Available layout options:
  • AUTH:FULL - Full authentication component
  • AUTH:CONDENSED - Condensed authentication component
  • EXTERNAL:FULL - Full external wallet component
  • EXTERNAL:CONDENSED - Condensed external wallet component
Use our to visualize different layout configurations before implementing them.

​
Step Override

paraModalConfig={{
  currentStepOverride: "ACCOUNT_MAIN" // or "account_main"
}}
Setting an invalid step or a step that requires previous steps to be completed may cause unexpected behavior. Ensure the step override makes sense in your authentication flow.

​
Security Features

​
Two-Factor Authentication

​
Recovery Secret

paraModalConfig={{
  twoFactorAuthEnabled: true,
  recoverySecretStepEnabled: true
}}

​
Guest Mode

paraModalConfig={{
  isGuestModeEnabled: true
}}

​
Theme Configuration

​
Basic Theme Example

paraModalConfig={{
  theme: {
    foregroundColor: "#333333",
    backgroundColor: "#FFFFFF",
    accentColor: "#007AFF",
    mode: "light",
    borderRadius: "md",
    font: "Arial, sans-serif"
  }
}}

​
Advanced Theme with Custom Palette

paraModalConfig={{
  theme: {
    foregroundColor: "#333333",
    backgroundColor: "#FFFFFF",
    accentColor: "#007AFF",
    mode: "light",
    customPalette: {
      text: {
        primary: "#333333",
        secondary: "#666666",
        subtle: "#999999",
        inverted: "#FFFFFF",
        error: "#FF3B30"
      },
      modal: {
        surface: {
          main: "#FFFFFF",
          footer: "#F2F2F7"
        },
        border: "#E5E5EA"
      },
      button: {
        primary: {
          background: "#007AFF",
          hover: "#0056CC",
          text: "#FFFFFF"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}}
Set the mode correctly based on your background color to ensure all components remain visible and accessible.
You can use custom fonts by importing them in your global CSS and specifying the font family in the font property.

​
Account Linking

paraModalConfig={{
  supportedAccountLinks: [
    "EMAIL",
    "PHONE", 
    "GOOGLE",
    "TWITTER",
    "EXTERNAL_WALLET"
  ]
}}

​
Event Callbacks

paraModalConfig={{
  onModalStepChange: (stepInfo) => {
    console.log('Modal step changed:', stepInfo);
  },
  onClose: () => {
    console.log('Modal closed');
  }
}}

​
Password & PIN Screen Theme Limitations

Password and PIN authentication screens are rendered in an iframe and use the Developer Portal theme settings, not your paraModalConfig.theme. This means:
  • Theme colors may differ between the modal and password screens if configurations don’t match
  • Dynamic theme changes at runtime won’t affect the iframe
  • You must configure matching themes in both your code and the Developer Portal for consistency
