Drop WooCommerce's brand purple from the plugin icon
assets/icon.svg filled the badge, the envelope fold and the percent sign with #7f54b3 — WooCommerce's own brand colour. Caught by the odin session during the trademark review. The point of taking "Woo" out of the plugin names was to stop implying an official tie to Automattic. A mark that keeps their purple says visually exactly what the rename stops saying, and a colour is harder to defend as coincidence than a name. It is wrong independently of what the family palette ends up being, so it does not wait for that decision. #1a7a52 chosen to match the old colour's WEIGHT rather than merely to differ from it: 5.32:1 on white against the purple's 5.50:1, so the white envelope and badge keep the contrast the proportions were tuned for at 40px — the size WordPress renders this at on Dashboard → Updates. Green also reads as savings. The hex of the colour being avoided is written broken up in the comment (7f-54-b3). A palette check across the five plugins would otherwise match this explanation and report the icon as still carrying it — the same self-matching trap the credential scan hit earlier today, when the rule flagged its own documentation. Not included, because it belongs to the rename and that is still Kristian's decision: the aria-label still reads "WooCommerce Email Discount Manager", which is the plugin's actual name today.

|

The whole point of dropping "Woo" from the plugin name was to stop
|
||||
implying an official tie to Automattic, and a mark that keeps their
|
||||
purple says visually exactly what the rename stopped saying — a colour
|
||||
is harder to defend as coincidence than a name. Green also reads as
|
||||
savings, which is what this plugin does.
|
||||
|
||||
Chosen to match the old colour's WEIGHT, not just to differ from it:
|
||||
5.32:1 on white against the purple's 5.50:1, so the badge and the
|
||||
envelope keep the same contrast at the size below.
|
||||
|
||||
Drawn as paths, never as <text>: an SVG that leans on a font renders
|
||||
differently on every machine that opens it, and WordPress shows this at
|
||||
roughly 40px on Dashboard → Updates — the size where that is the
|
||||
difference between a mark and a smudge. The proportions are tuned at
|
||||
40px, not at 128: the badge is deliberately oversized so the percent
|
||||
sign survives being shrunk to a dozen pixels. -->
