@Richard-K Hi Richard!

Thank you for the answer!!

@Richard-K said in Thumbnail caption wider than thumbnail?:

.lay-textformat-parent.below-image {
width: 200%;
margin-left: -50%;
}

I don't entirely understand how it works, but I've gone for:
width: 300%
margin-left: -100%
...which seems to work just fine!

Thank you!

Hey Richard, thanks a lot, I’ll do it by myself in js with my dear friend Google 👌

Let you know if I’m in trouble 🙂

Dear @notos

Regarding the Laygridder plugin or Blog functionality :)

Dear Johannes @jwk

Unfortunately not at this moment with the built in Lay Options.

This could be achieve through some JS/jQuery but you may wish to seek the aid of a developer to do that
In 'Customise' the site title can be set to the HTML option - here you could add Code that asks for the current project and changes accordingly :)

Dear @FW

If the cover is less that 100vh you would see through underneath and the content would stick out?
It wouldn't be a cover anymore so there is no built in Lay options for this.
Maybe this is what you want? :)

Dear @samdismore

It is possible but you may wish to seek the aid of a developer for this one,

Some Javascript would need to look at the contents/data of the image, register whether it is black or white and then change the Navigation accordingly - bit tricky but would be possible.

Another way which is probably easier is to manually set a class/ID for the slides that have the black background:

Set the the ID to e.g #special
And then when the slide with #special is active in the slide the navigation changes accordingly. This is the one i would go for.

There are more ways for sure and hopefully people will share their thoughts!

I hope i have been somewhat helpful Sam, apologies that i cannot create a tutorial just now!

Let me know your thoughts and have a wonderful day :)

Sincerely
Richard

Dear @e27

Thats a very good Question, only Armin would be able to decide this.

Would you be able to Email your query to info@laytheme.com?
Better to be discussed in person that on the forum :)

Hope this makes sense and thank you for considering Lay Theme as the Option for your Students! awesome

Best wishes & have a wonderful day
Richard

Dear R @runeok

I had some difficulty with the Feathered-edge because it seemed to rely upon the 'background image' property

But i came across the Webkit-mask and this worked when applied to my Carousel slide - unsure about its compatibility with "IE"
It would be worth looking into as an option forwards for you:

I used a piece of code from the above link to make sure it would work :)

@fr Thx a lot

@weodeo said in Stability of the Theme:

we've designed a website for a customer with the lay theme. Because of the issue with the firefox and opera browser, that the site wasn't available and it took a few days to fix it, the customer ist kind of angry and wants to know, if this was a single case or if it happens more often. Can anyone give me feedback on that? I need something to argument. I like the lay theme and love to work with it, but is it risky to work with it for paid customers?

Hey,
I always try to make sure everything works before I release an update.
However, sometimes I overlook things and sometimes it takes some time to fix things.

Things not working to that extent just happened once prior when I released a major update and people didn't update their addons.

If you'd like to be on the super-safe side you can always create a backup before updating or just not update lay theme in case you don't need an update.
Oftentimes updates are just bugfixes or new features. However, your website might not need that new feature or does not have that bug. So you don't need to update.

So you could also just not update your theme if you're happy with how your theme and addons work.

But yeah this bug was kind of bad luck and it really took too long for me to fix it. Usually this doesn't happen.

Dear Hanna @hanna

Awesome to hear :)

Dear @bbbfg

Currently i am running Wordpress 5.6 without issue, I cannot speak for all Lay Theme users - However you could always backup your Wordpress as a precaution :)

Dear @PC

I have followed up in your other thread post:

Dear @jordanm

Good luck! & best wishes :)

Dera @ramgonru

If the pages are all different colours
This can be achieved through adding some custom code to 'Lay Options - Custom CSS & HTML'

Do you have any example of what you wish to achieve or the link to your website?
This would be a first step but there are many options out there :)

Dear @barbarama

What would the closed button 'close/activate? you can do this with adding HTML to the Gridder and then assigning some jQuery to it - just need to know its function :)

Best wishes and have a wonderful day
Richard
