Q: Is my JSON data saved or logged on the server?
- A: No. All processing is strictly client-side using JavaScript. Your JSON data never touches the WordPress database or any remote server.
Q: Can I change the color scheme back to another color?
- A: Yes! You can edit the CSS custom variables inside the snippet (--jbt-purple, --jbt-purple-dark, --jbt-bg) to match your brand’s color palette.
Q: What is the maximum file size for JSON uploads?
- A: The default limit is set to 2 MB to ensure smooth browser performance during formatting.

Child Theme Recommended: If you are pasting the code directly into functions.php, always use a Child Theme. Direct edits to a main theme’s functions.php will be overwritten when the theme updates.
Valid Formatting Required: The tool validates syntax using native JSON.parse(). If your JSON contains syntax errors (like missing quotes or unclosed brackets), an error message will prompt you to check your syntax.
