Can't upload GIF because of "security reasons"
-
Every time I try to upload a gif it fails with this message: "Sorry, this file type is not permitted for security reasons".
I create the gif with photoshop and have tried every option possible. Even tried it to upload it to giphy, download it, and re-upload it again in case of any format issues and nothing either.

Dear Miquel
@Miquel-Pérez
This is likely not a Lay Theme issue but wordpress related. The allowed files types can be edited within the wp-config.php file. (outside lay theme files)
I would suggest contacting your Webhost or domain provider and asking them for support.
Best wishes 🌝

Dear @Miquel-Pérez
The Files are located on a server then. They should be accessible from the Control Panel of your Webhost.
Usually it's called FTP manager or something Similar. Within Wordpress' root folder should be a wp-config.php file.
I would be very careful if you are unsure what to do as this could lead to errors that will require a fresh re-install of Wordpress ( lose all content within ).
If unsure, most popular Web hosts offer support and can help you with these kinds of questions.
Have a wonderful day & best wishes 🌻

I also code custom websites or custom Lay features.

Before you post:
- When using a WordPress Cache plugin, disable it or clear your cache.
- Update Lay Theme and all Lay Theme Addons
- Disable all Plugins
- 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:
- Post a link to where the problem is
- Does the problem happen on Chrome, Firefox, Safari or iPhone or Android?
- If the problem is difficult to explain, post screenshots / link to a video to explain it
