    do u have a link

    maybe use textformats, activate tablet sizes for textformats in lay options
    then set different sizes for the textformats you use in "textformats" so the sizes are small enough for different screensizes.

    also in the texteditor you can use softhyphen button, it will make your word break at that point

    so you have this setting activated where the project thumbnail video only plays on mouseover right?

    in customize → project thumbnails → project thumbnail mouseover: Screenshot 2024-09-20 at 14.47.49.png

    you'd need to also activate:
    lay options → "Activate Mouseover Image for Thumbnails"

    and then set an image here that is the one you want to use

    then we would need to use custom css to first show the mouseover image, and on hover, show the video that is playing:

    you can find code about it here:

    hello!

    The links to the downloads in your email are links to zip files.

    However, your browser may automatically unzip the zip file and delete it maybe. Leaving you with just the unzipped folder.
    You could try to use a different browser to download the files.

    Or you could zip the folder.
    For example if you download lay.zip and you just get a folder called "lay" instead of a zip file, you can now zip this folder, so you will have a lay.zip file that contains the lay folder.

    hey you need to use javascript to do that!

    on mouseenter on .thumb get the text in its .title container, then place this text into a box in the top right.
    so you'd need to add some custom html where u have a box at the top right and then use js to target that box and insert the text

    you could try this:

    https://laytheme.com/tutorials/make-your-website-load-instantly-and-manage-your-own-server.html
    spinupwp.com will cache your pages as static html pages server side:
    https://spinupwp.com/doc/caching-in-spinupwp/

    so you wont need any extra caching plugins and i believe this way is the fastest caching possible
    also you'd have a more powerful server that answers faster

    takes some time to setup but its the fastest and most cost effective way to setup a wordpress website that i found

    this is another option, its more expensive though but easier to set up:
    https://kinsta.com/wordpress-hosting/?kaid=NXVJQTNMMXXM

    once you have tried all optimizations shown on
    https://laytheme.com/documentation/speeding-up-your-website.html

    i think this is the last option.

    you mean put
    images, videos, carousels inside the element grid?
    or inside the thumbnail grid?

    probably you mean element grid

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
