Got an idea for Lay Theme? I might include it in a new update or code an addon.

    Dear @strayorbit

    Unfortunately this is not possible from the standard options provided,
    However if you have have a basic understanding of HTML, CSS & JS you can fairly easily implement this onto your page through the "+ More - HTML" option within the Gridder -

    Alternatively you can use "Custom CSS & HTML" in "Lay Options"

    Adding a Video through Custom Code:
    https://www.w3schools.com/html/html5_video.asp

    With this option you have much more flexibility over how you control the video along with options to add a loading Gif:

    For more information regarding CSS:

    https://laytheme.com/documentation.html#custom-css-styling
    Additionally when using Javascript we need to remember to load it into Lay Theme with a "Newpage Event" :

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

    Also if using jQuery, to replace the shorthand symbol '$' to 'jQuery'

    If this becomes too problematic you may wish to seek the aid of a developer.

    I once again apologise that the option isn't as easy and that i cannot help further with Customisation,
    however if you have any further questions please feel free to ask :)

    Best Wishes and thank you for using Lay Theme

    Sincerely
    Richard

    Dear @Max-Weinland

    Im back! Apologies for the delay,

    I do not think a child theme is completely right however -
    Yes you can make a child theme and make adjustments to the Styling etc as you desire, the difficulty is that we cannot provide deeper support for one's personal customisation of Lay Theme,

    Making Child Theme's can require more maintenance as eventually larger changes made to the parent theme can cause unexpected bugs and issues, providing support for this would be an endless task, as each person's child theme would be different.

    You can try methods and solutions as you wish but i am unable to hunt them myself at this time, also if you are already in contact with a developer,

    Lay Theme provides the options we have available & i'm sorry that i cannot help further or change its structure, I am happy however to to take your requests and add them to our development notes for future reference & discussion.

    Sincerely,
    I wish you good luck in finding a solution that works for you,

    Best
    Richard

    Dear @pete

    I was curious too!
    I De-actived & Deleted My Lay Theme
    and re-installed it from the basic original Folder - Lay.zip,

    My content was still there waiting,

    "Projects" now being "Posts" -

    And then when re-installed My content was still there,
    Screen Shot 2020-08-26 at 8.11.45 PM.png

    I would always advise backing up the folders through your Webhost as a safety precaution, be careful :)

    Hope this helps

    @edgrbnz Thanks, I didn't think about this idea, but I prefer not to make it complicated for the client (managing 2 pages for 1 project), who in the end will have to manage his website...

    Best is if you write me a PM and include your username, password to your Wordpress Admin panel and a link to this conversation.

    Dear @thomaswide
    This is a great idea and we will write it down for the future. Right now this is not possible.
    Thank you!
    Marius

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
