    hi @alessiarodler

    you need to code it yourself.

    Have a look here!

    Add the HTML, JS and CSS in Custom CSS and style the HTML and CSS the way you like.

    It's not that difficult :)

    Good luck!

    Dear Kirin @Kirin

    Sorry for the delay. When testing the plugin none of the features really showed up in a way that i was able to use it. There were shortcodes in place - but the few i tried did do anything for me.

    Best wishes 🌝

    Dear Richard,

    thanks for the instruction and the code, it helped out a lot and it's a step in the right direction.

    Unfortunately the linked icons/thumbnails are now stuck at the top of the video when entering the page. But I want them to appear/move up by scrolling down (like here: https://lump200.com/).

    Also the footer (Imprint/Scroll to top buttom) should appear by scrolling (underneath the icons) on the video background.
    The background picture (with the smoke) should not appear on the landing page, just on the subpages.
    I'm not quite sure, but I think a need the video as a "real" background on the landing page and not a row background.

    Thanks for the help,
    Sunnyi

    Dear Toby @Toby

    Thank you for the numbers to help with what you are trying to achieve, I believe I understand 🌝

    I would suggest not using four separated menu's but one menu set to: 'top -left' in:

    Customize > Menu Style > Primary Menu

    Then using Custom CSS added to:

    Lay Options > Custom CSS & HTML > Custom CSS

    Apply either a % unit or 'vw' unit to the 'menu-item' making each have a margin or padding of a quarter width of the page.

    This would work the same as if you had the option to use % instead of 'px' for the 'Space Between' setting in Menu Customizer:

    Sorry that there is no built in options for this currently.

    https://www.w3schools.com/css/css_margin.asp

    https://www.w3schools.com/css/css_padding.asp

    Sorry for any inconvenience Toby and thank you for supporting Laytheme. Sincerely Richard

    Dear Daniel @danny

    "Is there a way to get rid of it?"

    You could add the following code into:

    Lay Options > Custom CSS & HTML > Custom CSS

    body{ -webkit-font-smoothing: none || antialiased || subpixel-antialiased -moz-osx-font-smoothing: auto || inherit || unset || grayscale font-smoothing: auto || inherit || unset || grayscale }

    Best wishes

    Dear @User4000 ( cool username )

    I hope i understand what you mean, apologies if i do not completely.

    This makes me think it's likely due to the PHP version of your website ( You refer to 'old wordpress site' ).

    A websites PHP version can be updated within your Webhost's settings.
    Note: The most recent PHP 8.0 has been known to cause a few issues until it becomes more widely used.

    Hope that i have helped @User4000 & best wishes 🌝

    Sincerely Richard

    Dear Francesca @franzi

    My apologies that this one is a bit difficult to answer in a straight forward manner. Depending on how heavy the page is in general & other factors, load times will vary. Best if you can in most circumstances get a video's file size down as much as possible.

    We recommend 'Handbrake' to help with this if you need it:

    https://handbrake.fr/

    Also if it helps you:

    https://laytheme.com/documentation.html#speedingup

    Once again sorry that i do not have a more direct answer at this point and thank you Francesca, have a wonderful day 🌝

    Sincerely
    Richard

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
