    Hey you can try to create a child theme using this info here https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes

    I didn't have child themes in mind when I created lay theme. I think a great reason to do child themes is to be able to replace certain parts of the parent theme with your own templates. Like for example you want a post to be different, so you just have the file single.php in your child theme and that overrides the single.php of the parent theme. However, lay theme's frontend is just a javascript application, one .js file. So then the question is if it makes sense at all to do a child theme.

    You can change lay theme a bit by using custom css, custom javascript and custom html, all of which is explained in the documentation on laytheme.com

    Hey apspencer!

    I just checked myfonts cause i have a webfont there too.
    When im using the "webfont kit builder" then I'm getting these files:

    Screen Shot 2016-09-14 at 08.56.58.png

    I then rename the .woff file to myfont.woff cause lay theme doesnt support fontfiles that start with a number in their filename.
    Then I upload the font and it works.

    If you are doing the same and it does not work for you, please send me your webfontkit to armin.unruh@gmail.com along with a link to this topic

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
