    Dear Florine @florine

    This may not be the most graceful way to do it, but maybe it works for you 🌝

    The following code clones your social-media group and adds it after the last menu element "uber mich"

    jQuery('#handyrow').clone().insertAfter('#menu-item-388');

    Result:

    There would need to be some changes to the handyrow css:

    .mobile-nav #handyrow { position: initial; top: 0; left: 1.5%; z-index: 40; }

    You can specify it only to apply to the handy-row within the menu by adding .mobile-nav beforehand.

    Hopefully if this isn't exactly whats needed it still helps you in the right direction Florine ⭐️

    Dear Ana @banana 🍌

    When you make a new page as a test and apply this new text format are you still unable to have 20px?

    The correct font size for phone is set in Text formats, it is then applied again within the Gridder and to be sure the Phone settings within Lay Options all look correct, breakpoints have been set.

    Screen Shot 2022-03-20 at 4.01.20 PM.png

    The Site's Tagline does not exist for mobile by default, either we need to custom code this in, or add it to the top of your Mobile page layouts.

    Regarding the Font Sizing, if you still run into trouble, please feel free to send me a message via 'Chats' and i can login and talk a closer look at the text format settings.

    Best wishes Richard

    Yes it is possible 🌝
    Looking into the z-index property should help you:

    Dear @Kilian

    Thanks for the update & the great explanation 🌝
    I am unsure why exactly without being able to look at the sub-menu and see how it behaves. I notice not "commissions" has no sub-menu?

    Is there anyway i can view the sub-menu to better inspect it?
    I understand that you would not want a broken sub-menu to be present all the time, so we may need to work something else out Β πŸ‘ is it still present but just not "switched on" ?

    Talk soon & have a wonderful day Richard

    Dear @Janina

    "I need to change the placement of the cover image on this sub page only:"

    .slug-about .cover-region { margin-top:55px; }

    Result:
    Screen Shot 2022-03-20 at 1.00.34 PM.png

    "is there a way to change the preset default colour globally for the whole site? I want it to change from black to #548B54"

    This would depend on what the colour applies to, for example you could set all text (except for links) with the following:

    body{ colour:#548B54; }

    There are many root colours for Lay Theme, some are for the Carousel and some are for other Addons. Happy to help, just wish to know more about what you mean by "default color for whole site" 🌝

    Talk soon & best wishes Richard

    Dear Johannes @timperangel

    You could make use of the Gridder JSON to copy over content into your combined landing page:

    http://laythemeforum.com:4567/topic/7421/insert-page-into-another

    Or if the three individual pages will keep changing and you want the landing page to change with it, this will require some Custom code i think 🌝

    You could look into cloning: https://www.w3schools.com/jquery/html_clone.asp

    Dear @pollyinthehouse

    Could you please make sure of the following for testing 🌝

    Wordpress, Lay Theme & Laytheme's Addons are all up to date ?

    Any custom CSS or JS that may interfere is temporarily removed.

    Any third-party plugins are de-activated to see if this resolves the issue. (most -likely)

    Talk soon & best wishes! Richard

    Dear @dolfmenagonz

    Sorry to hear this about Strato, normally a Webhost customer service can help you get into your Files. So the problem:

    Cant access the Wordpress Admin area

    So we need another way to de-activate/ delete the current Theme. We need access to the Website Files/ Folder.

    For an understanding of the process please read this page under #2. Deleting a WordPress theme via FTP (or via ftp manager):

    https://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/how-to-delete-a-wordpress-theme/

    I think with Strato its called Server Manager:

    https://www.strato-hosting.co.uk/faq/hosting/what-is-ftp-and-how-can-i-use-it/

    Please read this, i believe you will need to do this yourself if Strato Customer service will not help you. Let me know your thoughts and talk soon 🌝

  • Menu Bar reappear at page end

    Dear Annette @afb

    The menu bar will hide when scrolling down and appear when scrolling up or with Mouseover, im sure you have seen these settings within Customize >

    However there is no option for "hitting" page bottom & this would need to be custom coded by you, i can set you in the right direction though! 🌝

    The Menu bar disappears when the Class hidden is added to it. Here you can see the difference in the HTML Code:

    The Menu is visible:
    Screen Shot 2022-03-10 at 11.46.03 AM.png

    And the menu hidden ( noticed class: hidden is added to the element ):
    Screen Shot 2022-03-10 at 11.45.56 AM.png

    Therefore you would want a piece of code (jquery) saying: "When the user is at the bottom of the page -- ADD the class "Hidden" to the .navbar element"

    https://laytheme.com/documentation/custom-javascript.html

    https://stackoverflow.com/questions/35657183/add-remove-class-when-close-to-bottom-of-page

    Hope this helps Annette & have a wonderful day ⭐️ Richard

    Dear @Janina

    Happy to hear the font issue is solved, as for the Intro:

    Ive tested mouse clicking the intro & its working for Chrome, Safari & Firefox (also working for you). So we can assume the Bug isolated to your Client.

    Why this may be?
    Have they check in an incognito window?
    Are they using a different Browser?

    Unfortunately with this one Janina it may be difficult for me to fix if i can recreate the Bug and it only occurs on her computer and no one else. My first thought is her Browser Cache, let me know how you go & i will see if i can help further πŸ‘

    Best wishes Richard

    Have a great day @robochicken thanks for supporting Lay Theme !!

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 β†’ 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
