    Dear @travelingrabbit
    that is not possible.
    But you can use the hover effect also on images. In the forum is written how that works somewhere.

    Best!

    Dear @Mauro-A-Santos
    the tools are very simple.

    A good editor. Atom, Visual Studio or Sublime will do.
    And FTP like Filezilla or Cyberduck are recommendable.

    And off we go!

    Github is not important to get started with.

    I would watch 2 or 3 tutorials of how to build a Wordpress Theme from scratch. Maybe even a course at Udemy or Lynda.

    If I work on Laytheme I just use Google Inspector, the CUSTOM CODE section and no tools.
    Sometimes a code editor to backup the code which I wrote. But that is it.

    Best!

    Dear @carlosadalid
    if you inspect the navigation with Chrome Inspector, you can see that each menu item has an ID.

    With % or vh you can align them to your needs. Will be some small annoying work. But it is possible.

    Best!

    Dear @irenewiryanto
    if it works now.

    I never heard of that plugin and normally it should work without.

    Make sure Wordpress, and PHP is up to date.

    Good luck!

    Dear @BLUSCH
    yes. The site seems super slow.
    Might be a problem with your webhost.

    Can you deactivate the theme to see if it is still slow?

    Dear @marcin
    with CUSTOM CSS and the !important tag. And then you need to select the specific link which you do not want to change.

    A bit annoying CSS work.

    Dear @LeaGK91
    normally you should not edit the LayTheme theme template files.
    But in this case I would just do it.

    Put it in the header.php between the other meta tags.

    Best!

    Dear @amcd125
    you have a dropdown menu on the last menu point, no?

    Or do you mean a more animated dropdown menu like the mobile menu?

    This one you probably need to code in CUSTOM CSS, jQUERY and HTML.

    Best!

    Dear @lmpa92

    I think this topic came up once and Armin posted a solution here in the forum.
    But I am not sure if the solution does still work.

    Best is – you have a little search here.

    Dear @danny
    to understand you right:

    On the menu version you want the links of the navigation in which colour?

    Dear @danielmachado
    the whole site does not reload. Only the content gets changes. The navigation for example stays the same.

    The switch is happening in javascript.
    If you open the inspector in Google Chrome, you can see that there is no hard page refresh.

    Best!

    Dear @JF
    there is not really a LayTheme solution for this. This is an Wordpress issue I assume.
    https://www.google.com/search?rlz=1C5CHFA_enDE828DE828&ei=RZeGXOOsLeKOrwSh6L-4Aw&q=wordpress+mailto+in+navigation+opens+blank+page&oq=wordpress+mailto+in+navigation+opens+blank+page&gs_l=psy-ab.3..0i71l7.8042.9264..9490...0.0..0.309.2650.2-8j1......0....1..gws-wiz.cgzOJY84lJ4

    There should be a plugin somewhere…

    Best!

    Marius

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 → 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
