can you state what you edited in ~/.config/swaylock/config ?

Here you go, hope it's the right parameter to set. IMG_20240219_181119

I believe you should switch to swaylock instead of swaylock effects

from the link it looks it supports the color options

on the swaylock effects, it does not seem to have function for color only as background.. although I could be wrong

Thanks.

For the time being I'll be using using the package swaylock.

Cheers!
