colorizing org headings based on todo keyword

[JonatanSahar]

Hi,
org-mode's documentation suggests setting the faces for different keywords like so:

(setq org-todo-keyword-faces
      '(("TODO" . org-warning) ("STARTED" . "yellow")
        ("CANCELED" . (:foreground "blue" :weight bold))))

I was wondering if the theme has some setting which controls this as well, or should I set it manually and use the theme's color pallete?

Thanks!

Hello @JonatanSahar!

No, the themes don't have such a setting. Here is how I do it on my end:

  (defface prot/org-bold-todo
    '((t :inherit (bold org-todo)))
    "Face for bold TODO-type Org keywords.")

  (defface prot/org-bold-done
    '((t :inherit (bold org-done)))
    "Face for bold DONE-type Org keywords.")

  (defface prot/org-bold-shadow
    '((t :inherit (bold shadow)))
    "Face for bold and `shadow' Org keywords.")

  (setq org-todo-keyword-faces
        '(("WAIT" . prot/org-bold-todo)
          ("MAYBE" . prot/org-bold-shadow)
          ("CANCEL" . prot/org-bold-done)))

By inheriting other faces, I am guaranteed to get support by every theme.
