    Dear @axeldemarteau

    Just as a starting point:
    Im getting in your Console an error about Imagehover,

    Are both Lay Theme & its Addons all up to date and in sync with each other?

    Do you have any Third-party plugins that when deactivated resolve the issue?

    Do you have any Custom Code that when temporarily removed solves the issue?

    Also:
    https://laytheme.com/troubleshooting.html#customizer-does-not-show-up

    From there we can proceed :)

    Talk soon! & have a wonderful day

    Hey @joaop ,

    Did you try to use HTML/CSS to do that instead of a plugin with the css animation property? You can use (on the desktop version) and HTML code as a website title.

    You can have a look on that for exemple :

    Dear @billykioso

    Will try to answer questions separately, is possible :)

    Q 1: Menu items styled like paragraph.

    Within > appearance > menus >
    You can create a custom name for any menu point - therefore could you just add a ' , ' comma at the end to create the vertically style paragraph:

    It should also be mentioned that you could just create a paragraph of text in a Gridder layout then link individual words to the pages you want?

    Aha - i see now, You could remove the 'wrap' property of the menu points so that they fall after each other like a paragraph - This is what you wanted :)

    Q 2: Need menus to sit in centered within the grid

    In Customize > Menu Style > you can change the layout margins of the menu - by setting this to the same margin as your Gridder's "Frame" you will have the correct setup.

    Actually:

    Because of the specific layout needs - it may be more effective to create the exact layout you want in a Gridder - on a "page" and then activate this page as a 'footer' you can activate a footer with - Lay Options & then within the chosen page select it as your footer ( sorry if that was wordy.. )

    So then basically we have the content of that 'page' appearing everywhere on the website. Then apply some Custom CSS to bring it to the Top of the Website and it basically acts as your navigation.

    Sorry if this was a ramble - just to know your thoughts and im happy to help ;)

    Best wishes

    Dear @plhrmnn

    Unfortunately i don't think this is possible at the moment , i had a thought that you could export your content - go into the .xml file and change all the data-type attributes from project to page:

    But this could very easily get messy and ruin your content :(

    Sorry that i cannot be of further help Paul, but i hope if anyone knows that can please chip in! :)

    Dear @visitlay

    Sorry for the delayed reply - I think in this case its best to follow the Example code - unsure if Lay Theme's parallax can be used that way! :)

    Dear @vernandel

    So if i'm right, the issue is that uploading a background video through > Customize > background >:
    The mp4 upload is too Large.

    With a Vimeo or Youtube option, the video has to be triggered by 'play' button - is this a problem for design?

    Is it possible to contact your webhost to allow a bigger upload file size limit? or using the free Program 'handbrake' to re-encode the video for better web optimization?

    Just wondering how to help :)

    Best wishes

    Dear @skjul

    However If moving your custom code make things function that weren't before, we can likely say that the issue is with the code & not with the Carousel update. This is a good first step, i have received your Github and will take a look but cant promise to fix your code for you, this unfortunately is up to you :)
    What i really would suggest to help you debug further.

    If you have a simple web document program or not even needed, just somewhere to past your code:

    Take the time to remove each Custom Code area - until your Custom CSS,JS & HTML page is clear. If copy and pasted on a document then it will be safe and can just be added back again.
    Then save and refresh - Does Lay Theme function correctly now?
    No third-party plugins?
    All up-to-date?

    Then add the Custom Code back in one area at a time e.g 'Custom CSS' area - then 'CSS for Desktop' area.
    Refreshing & saving the website each time to see if the clash occurs. When the error happens you have isolated which 'Code Chunk' is likely to blame.

    From there you can debug further by adding smaller 'chunks' of that larger code 'chunk' one by one to see when the clash occurs again.

    I know this can be time consuming and rather frustrating, but not as frustrating as looking at all the code and wondering where even to begin.

    Hope this helps, I only mean well :)

    Sincerely
    Richard

    Sorry for the delay, could you please post a link to the page with category filter?

    This is very likely a bug so will re-create and test and if so will get it sorted! :)

    Talk soon and once again apologies for this thread getting past me Paul

    Dear @luziaconzeta

    This is very cool :)
    However it's a bit tricky and you may likely need the aid of a developer -

    The main thing I see is when the user scrolls to this location the Element goes from "postion:relative" to "position:fixed" until the final slide then it goes back to 'relative' and you can move on:

    Apologies that i cannot look deeper or run a better tutorial of how to achieve this :)

    Best wishes & have a lovely day!

    Dear @philie

    I will address question 3 first if that's ok:

    The "testtesttesttest" in one row - The text content will take its information from how it was set in the "Text Editor"

    Screen Shot 2021-02-08 at 7.51.21 PM.png

    In the text editor its defined as an ongoing sentence with no break in its layout so it will be displayed this way in the front end.
    There is no way to rotate the the text within the text editor - however you could apply Custom CSS to it via 'Lay options - Custom CSS & HTML"

    https://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/text-rotation/

    Question 1 , i think i understand correctly, however what method would you need to set them on top? are you using a 'stack' element or using the X/Y Offset?

    Question 2.. May need just a little bit more info sorry to be an inconvenience this way :)

    Best wishes!
    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 → 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
