    Dear @Robertr Thank you for the Video, helps :) So there are two ways i can think of doing this at first, However the second may require the aid of a developer if you are not familiar with the basics of CSS or JS/jQuery, https://www.khanacademy.org/computing/computer-programming/html-css https://www.khanacademy.org/computing/computer-programming/html-css/web-development-tools/a/using-the-browser-developer-tools https://laytheme.com/documentation.html#custom-javascript So the First Option & the simpler but more time consuming: Would be for each project page find the "slug" or "Class" of the page [image: 1599065506278-screen-shot-2020-09-02-at-6.37.12-pm-resized.png] and adding Custom CSS in "Lay Options" -"Custom CSS & HTML", [image: 1599065622972-screen-shot-2020-09-02-at-6.53.06-pm-resized.png] Target the Menu item. On all projects within "Regie" the menu-item "Regie" remains underlined, Or on all projects within Kamera the menu-item "Kamera" remains underlined etc An example of this would be: body.id-18 .second_menu [data-title~=Regie] span{ border-bottom-width: 2px !important; } The Second option would be to use JS/ jQuery: The Code may ask, What page am i on? or could ask for the permalink structure , [image: 1599065860479-screen-shot-2020-09-02-at-6.56.35-pm-resized.png] The Reply would be - Im within "Regie" And with this 'Answer' For all pages "regie" matching, make the menu item "regie" underlined Sorry if this is more complicated than it has to be and if anyone reading this can think of a very obvious solution that i missed ( which can happen often!! ) then please correct me :) Let me know & best wishes, Richard

    Hello @JanVermeulen I got another email from you with some issues: here some questions/problems for you, hoping for your help 1 As I was saying in a post I am aiming to create an Home page (as a splash page for an upcoming website) which shows a sequence of images -done with Carousel- I created a page in WP and set that page in the Frontpage setting of Laytheme. This doesn’t show on the computer but it does show on the Mobile. (Atm I just applied a fix image to the front page just not to have it white online) How can I solve it? 2 The site title should be divided on 2 lines but it shows on one line in the Mobile version 3 The tagline is not showing in the Mobile version 4 Can I use a smaller font for the second line of the site title? 5 Can I make the the title/tagline a clickable link to the mailbox? 1 - So I can see a carousel here on the frontpage:http://www.studiojanvermeulen.eu/ 2 - I guess you're talking about this text:"Studio Jan Vermeulen…" Hmm when trying to control the exact breaking of a line try this:Instead of normal spaces use non-breaking spaces: [image: 1599038649532-screenshot-2020-09-02-at-11.15.03.png] Then when there should be a line break use the keys "shift"+"enter" to create a linebreak. In html code then there will be a <br> which indicates a linebreak. 3 - True, there is no site tagline feature for mobile. I wrote it down and might work on this one day! 4- You can use a different font-size or textformat for the site tagline. You can also insert HTML as the site title. Using appropriate HTML and CSS you can style your site title. Like so: [image: 1599039161668-screenshot-2020-09-02-at-11.32.17.png] And then using css in lay options → custom css & html you can style those two lines: .line1{ /*ur css here*/ } .line2{ /*ur css here*/ } 5 - using html for the site title as mentioned above, you can also insert an anchor to have a mail link, yea. like: <span class="line1"><a href="mailto:my@email.com">Lay ThemeYo</a></span><br> <span class="line2">Hey</span>

    Dear @alessiarodler Ah yes! :) You website is down right now i think? [image: 1598887990334-screen-shot-2020-08-31-at-5.32.52-pm-resized.png] So i cant relate it to something specific on your site but i can send you in the right direction: So the "hover" function in CSS https://www.w3schools.com/cssref/sel_hover.asp You can target any element on a webpage and have something occur when you move the mouse cursor over that element "hover" over it. So what is happening in https://www.w3schools.com/howto/tryit.asp?filename=tryhow_css_image_overlay_icon Is they have a container that holds two boxes - an image and basically a box that holds a block color, The image is visible but the Coloured box has an "opacity" of "0" meaning it is invisible, when the mouse cursor 'hovers' over the image, the box is given an "opacity" of "1" making it visible! This is the basics behind the example you provided, Let me know further Best Wishes Richard

    Dear @moND0711 Currently do we not provide support for any third-party Event Plugins as their templates can cause issues with Lay Theme, At this point i can only suggest that you just have to give it a go ( preferably free of course ), Alternatively looking into " Lay Gridder " may be an option for you. http://laygridder.com/ However I will add your thoughts into our development notes for future consideration. Thank you for using Lay Theme & best wishes, Richard

  • Urgent: Responsive primary menu

    Dear @cschm-tz Because your Secondary Menu ( bottom menu ) is "position: fixed;" It will always align on the bottom of the page even as other content changes - Therefore ( i assume in your case ) that the primary menu text is too large for smaller screens, if the text is too large it will always push out at some point because: Smaller screen = less space, However a common fix in your case would be that as the browser re-sizes the font size will adjust accordingly - Responsive Font Size: https://www.w3schools.com/howto/howto_css_responsive_text.asp For more help with CSS and Development tools: https://www.khanacademy.org/computing/computer-programming/html-css https://www.khanacademy.org/computing/computer-programming/html-css/web-development-tools/a/using-the-browser-developer-tools Best Wishes & Good Luck! :) Richard

    Dear @af Highly unlikey sorry, Because Lay Theme and Elementor both work to create website wide content this will inevitably lead to clashes. I was curious myself so i installed Elementor and ran into problems shortly afterwards. I hope this helps :) Sincerely Richard

    Dear @hkim83 There are ways of creating your own arrows to your choosing that can navigate between previous and next projects. This will require basic knowledge of HTML and CSS https://www.khanacademy.org/computing/computer-programming/html-css https://www.khanacademy.org/computing/computer-programming/html-css/web-development-tools/a/using-the-browser-developer-tools Adding your own "HTML" either in the Footer: [image: 1598359862014-screen-shot-2020-08-25-at-2.50.25-pm-resized.png] Across the whole website if you wish within "Lay Options" "Custom CSS & HTML" [image: 1598359791492-screen-shot-2020-08-25-at-2.49.19-pm-resized.png] I have created a very basic setup - i hope this helps you on your journey :) When you create a Link <a> and give it the class "layprevproject" or "laynextproject" it automatically receives the necessary data to take us to the next-prev project. [image: 1598360179093-screen-shot-2020-08-25-at-2.54.24-pm-resized.png] So in "Custom HTML & CSS" I have created two simple links with the correct class names [image: 1598360219189-screen-shot-2020-08-25-at-2.53.26-pm-resized.png] Now what goes within the Link <a> is completely up to you! it could be Text, An image, an arrow etc - ( very basic arrow ) https://www.w3schools.com/howto/howto_css_arrows.asp [image: 1598360383189-screen-shot-2020-08-25-at-2.58.16-pm-resized.png] And now i can place arrows in my website - page or footer that operate as links to the next and previous projects. I hope this answers your question and you have a wonderful day, Thank you for using Lay Theme Best Richard

    Dear @viktorhor Sure! :) You can do this with the Custom CSS option located in "Lay options" "Custom CSS & HTML" [image: 1598298094972-screen-shot-2020-08-24-at-9.38.30-pm.png] Adding Code for example like this: .text.scrolltotop { position:fixed !important; bottom:0; right:0; margin-right:10px; } [image: 1598298128634-screen-shot-2020-08-24-at-9.38.42-pm-resized.png] Here we have targeted the element that we desire and given it a fixed position to keep it "Fixed" to the viewport of the screen, [image: 1598298227725-screen-shot-2020-08-24-at-9.40.20-pm-resized.png] Additionally we have given it a "margin-right" of "10px" to give it space away from the side. I hope this helps you in your Lay Theme Journey, Best Wishes Richard
