individualization of laytheme

[PascalKueppers]

Hi Everyone,

at the moment I am building a website for a photographer, by using Laytheme.
I'm near the end of the project but now i need some modifications.
Could someone with laytheme experiences help me with that?

Would be an official job with payment.

Best,
Pascal

What exactly do you need?

[PascalKueppers]

Hi,

what we need:

— a customizable slide "you might also like" at the end (or last slide) of the fullscreen slider. This slide should contain a headline ("you might also like") and three thumbnails with title and subtitle. These thumbnails should look different than on the project overview page. Here we are using the masonry layout so we propably need a option in the backend to deposit a second thumbnail in a different format.

— an individual design for the control of the fullscreen background videos

— the fullscreen slider should start in autoplay modus

— A possibility in the backend to mark the projects as "new" or "hot" etc.

Ok.

Most of these seem to be backend stuff. Perhaps @mariusjopen or @arminunruh can help with this. But here are some suggestions / directions to (perhaps) solve things with the given features:

• You could easily make the “you might also like” slide with an element-grid and a regular headline. Just place the images you’d like in the element grid and link them to the respective project-pages.
  It‘s a bit of a manual approach but there’s no real featue for that in Lay-Theme (yet?)
• The fullscreen video control would be some staright forward CSS stuff (I think) is there a link to look at the site in question?
• Afaik there’s no autoplay by now for the fullscreen slider. The Auto-Scrolling in the options references to the effect of scrolling viewport per viewport. You can have a look over here to get a grip of the functions the slider is able to do.
• You could just use the categories or tags function and use new and hot as categories / tags. I’m sure there is a way to then mark the projects in given categories via Custum-CSS after that.

I myself am no CSS / Code Dude. The things above are just a few hints how I believe your desired custumizations could perhaps be accomplished.

Dear @edgrbnz
thank you for going through this!

1. Yes. I totally agree. There is not a automatic feature for this yet.
2. That is a good way to go
3. Yes. Thats a good advice. You can start it yourself with jQuery
4. Exactly

I would have written the same.

Best!
