    Thanks Armin. I already asked ChatGPT and it gave me this code, which works - the attributes are inserted within the <SVG id> section. Changed it using textedit. Hope that helps anyone exporting from Illustrator, as most of us probably are? <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <svg id="Layer_1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="52" height="52" viewBox="0 0 52 52"> <defs> <style> .cls-1{fill:#606060;opacity:.5;} .cls-2{fill:none;stroke:#fff;stroke-miterlimit:10;stroke-width:.67px;} </style> </defs> <rect class="cls-1" width="52" height="52" rx="4" ry="4"/> <polyline class="cls-2" points="22.87 17.06 31.81 26 22.87 34.94"/> </svg>

    hey jonas! with the latest lay theme update you can also do this: position an image over the whole full width: [image: 1758187757067-1f75f603-3668-472d-a781-8c2ab057c1ec-image-resized.png] select the image and in the sidebar, enable fixed height and use object fit contain. play around with the height setting, you could also use a value like 90vh for example [image: 1758187844357-46d3e012-340c-4dca-97fb-a60c23a14345-image.png]

    @arminunruh This works great, any idea why Element Grid + Project Thumbnails would end up like this? No custom CSS work or what-so-ever [image: 1758141072923-screenshot-2025-09-17-at-22.29.00.png]

    hey darius! your site title spacing is 143px to the left your gridder has a 10% space to the left you could set your site title to be 10% space to the left instead in the customizer

    hello! you put your html inside the site title in customize -> site title this is the desktop site title which is hidden on mobile on mobile the site title is shown that you set in: customize -> mobile -> mobile site title so if you were to insert your HTML here, it would work: [image: 1758118025247-7b65f074-2ec2-4023-8490-3e42fe34bd69-image.png]

    In combination, installing the update and clearing the layout cache did the trick. Thank you for looking into this.

    it seems that, on pages like this: https://proyectopiranha.com/editorial/ your overlay shows up and thus, the overlay background, but you hide the overlay using css. but you didnt hide the overlay background using css. thats why on pages like that, you cant scroll or click anything, unless you click once to hide the transparent overlay background. you could use this css: body:not(.home) #lay-overlays{ display: none; } this will hide the overlays and overlay backgrounds on all pages except for home. add this in: lay options -> custom css & html -> custom css for desktop now for mobile if you want to hide the overlay and the bg, everywhere, simply use: #lay-overlays{ display: none; } add this in: lay options -> custom css & html -> custom css for phone

    also: i really love the hove addon / half background option, i was wondering if that could be a permanent option. what do you mean with permanent option? i think html5 videos play even when they are not fully loaded. theres no way to put multiple videos into like one video element and then they play one after another no

    [image: 1757065909461-e0b5142b-1b0e-41fe-99f6-a41e52d92552-image-resized.png] great looking website!! it seems to be this text, that has a large font-size applied to it. please go to where this text is in the gridder, and edit it. select the text and click "clear formatting" [image: 1757066104969-ebebc809-13d9-4e2f-a574-93e025076c4e-image.png] now apply a textformat, that has a smaller font-size for mobile. my guess is you want your email address to be full width. you could create a svg and insert it as a 100% full width image instead of using text. this would scale it perfectly. btw for this you could also use the new table element: [image: 1757066063664-ea50f880-37c7-4321-be67-da05507a67c0-image.png]

    hey i think this kind of exceeds lay theme's capabilities and im not sure which plugin would be a good fit you could try to vibe code this with cursor, basically letting ai code this for you. however, you wouldnt have any lay theme like layouting capabilites and it would probably just be a nodejs app, that maybe uses supabase for auth and data. or just a database. if you have a budget for this, me and my business partner at www.100k.studio code things like this for a living :D you can contact us: contact@100k.studio

I also code custom websites or custom Lay features.

Before you post:
  1. When using a WordPress Cache plugin, disable it or clear your cache.
  2. Update Lay Theme and all Lay Theme Addons
  3. Disable all Plugins
  4. Go to Lay Options โ†’ Custom CSS & HTML, click "Turn Off All Custom Code", click "Save Changes"

This often solves issues you might run into

When you post:
  1. Post a link to where the problem is
  2. Does the problem happen on Chrome, Firefox, Safari or iPhone or Android?
  3. If the problem is difficult to explain, post screenshots / link to a video to explain it
