How can PHP be used to allow users to choose background colors in a CMS?

To allow users to choose background colors in a CMS using PHP, you can create a form where users can select a color from a predefined list or input their own color hex code. Then, store the selected color in a database or session variable and apply it to the background of the website using inline CSS or by dynamically generating a CSS file. 

<?php
// Check if the form has been submitted
if(isset($_POST['background_color'])) {
    // Sanitize and store the selected background color
    $selected_color = $_POST['background_color'];
    
    // Store the selected color in a session variable or database
    $_SESSION['background_color'] = $selected_color;
}

// Apply the selected background color to the website
if(isset($_SESSION['background_color'])) {
    echo '<style>body { background-color: ' . $_SESSION['background_color'] . '; }</style>';
}
?>
