    Hmmm, a good way to do this is to use shortcodes but I deactivated shortcodes for lay theme for now.

    You can also use javascript:
    https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Date
    You could create a textelement in the footer, give it a class and then use the "newpageshown" event to add the date string into that element.

    Hi Armin,
    Great! Now it works. Thank you a lot.

    At first I thought it is just a small fix needed, so I posted into the existing thread.
    Sorry for that. Next time own topic. I promise! 🙈

    Hey!

    Or, is there any way to achieve the effect by which projects appear on a Category page by their title only? In such a manner that on mouse rollover the project thumbnail image appears?

    Good idea, at the moment there is no such effect. Gonna write it down though and think about it.

    Hey!
    When u hover over an element, there is a "class" button. U can use that for custom css styling. Here's an example "create a custom button style": http://laytheme.com/documentation.html#custom-css-styling

    In Lay Theme, normally an element will always overlap a preceding element.
    Also elements inside a row will always overlap elements of a previous row.

    With the latest lay theme version you can also right click an empty spot of a row and set a row class. That might help with some z-index things you want to do.

    Hey!
    If u have 1.6.0 or later, then you can update within the backend. If you have a version before 1.6.0 you need to deactivate and delete the theme and upload the latest version.

    @arminunruh
    Thank you. (Pretty nice theme!)

    I meant the images beside the projects. Both are inserted via the Image button. Anyways, your last sentence gave me the right answer: I missed the "Edit Caption" button in the gridder header. Thanks!

    ah yeah its probably because there are so many videos on the doc page. yeah my mbp gets really loud too if i watch for example an hd video in chrome in fullscreen -.-
    has nothing to do with the theme though, cause laytheme.com is not made with lay theme :)

    Hey!
    lay theme works for wordpress, so basically if you have an internet-browser that is not too old you can use lay theme on a mac or windows or linux :D

    hey!!
    not possible :/
    If you are a developer, lay theme might not be the right choice for you cause you can't change its code that much. This summer im going to work on a standalone version of the gridder and with that people can just code their own themes and then use the gridder with any theme.

    Hey Christina!
    Ah yea, will fix that for the next update.
    For now you can set that opacity back to 100% and use this css in "lay options" -> "custom css" -> "css for mobile version":

    .navbar{ background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0.7); }

    You can change the number 255,255,255 to get a different color (rgb). the last one 0.7 is the opacity (0-1)

    Custom CSS not working when in Mobile browser

    Hey!
    On that website I see "@media only screen and (max-device-width: 480px) {}" as a text on the site. You should probably put <style></style> tags around that css if you want that to work.

    Now to your question:
    In "Lay Options" -> "Custom CSS & HTML" there are two CSS fields:
    "Custom CSS for desktop" and "Custom CSS for mobile". If you want some css to apply to both mobile and desktop you need to put your css into the two fields.

    Maybe it's easier if you just put a style tag into the field "Custom <head> content" (which is below "Custom CSS for Mobile Version"):

    <style> /*your styles for mobile and desktop here*/ </style>
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
