    Hi Marius

    I've managed to get some jquery working on JSFIDDLE but when I transferred the code into Layhtheme
    it doesn't work

    https://jsfiddle.net/Toby05/va6a10g1/45/#&togetherjs=VIBsap8NEF

    and here's the code i'm pasting into CUSTOM HEAD CONTENT:

    <script>
    window.laytheme.on("newpage", function(layoutObj, type, obj){
    jquery(document).on ("mouseover", ".thumb",
    function() {
    var category = $(this).attr("data-catid");
    if (category == 1)
    jquery(this).css('background', "rgb(251,25,0)");
    }).on("mouseout", function() {
    jquery(this).css('background', "rgb(241,241,241)");
    }).on("mouseover", function() {
    var category = $(this).attr("data-catid");
    if (category == 2)
    jquery(this).css('background', "rgb(24, 176, 247)");
    }).on("mouseout", function() {
    jquery(this).css('background', "rgb(241,241,241)");
    }).on("mouseover", function() {
    var category = $(this).attr("data-catid");
    if (category == 3)
    jquery(this).css('background', "rgb(255,222,0)");
    }).on("mouseout", function() {
    jquery(this).css('background', "rgb(241,241,241)");
    }).on ("mouseover",function() {
    var category = $(this).attr("data-catid");
    if (category == 4)
    jquery(this).css('background', "rgb(115,195,19)");
    }).on("mouseout", function() {
    jquery(this).css('background', "rgb(241,241,241)");
    });
    </script>

    Thanks
    Toby

      Hi @Toby

      as far as I understood – you wanted that the background is changing to a specific color when you hover a category, right?

      This is not happening in your example.

      Are we talking about the same thing?

      All the best!

        Hi Marius

        Yes that's what I want - unfortunately my attempts have been unsuccessful - can you help resolve this?

        The previous post I'd attached the wrong JSFIDDLE - Here is my latest attempt

        https://jsfiddle.net/Toby05/va6a10g1/67/#&togetherjs=y4rLV5GyyC

        Thanks

          Hi @Toby

          add this to your CUSTOM HEAD CONTENT:

          <script>
          window.laytheme.on("newpage", function(layoutObj, type, obj){
          
          jQuery(document).on("hover", ".thumb", 
            function(event) {
            
            	jQuery("body").removeClass("red");
              jQuery("body").removeClass("blue");
              
              var category = jQuery(this).attr("data-catid");
              
              if (category == 1) {
                jQuery("body").addClass("red");
          	  }
              
              if (category == 2) {
             		jQuery("body").addClass("blue");
          	  }
              
            }
            
          );
          
          });
          </script>
          

          and this to your custom CSS:

          .red {
            background: red !important;
          }
          
          .blue {
            background: blue !important;
          }
          

          I have two projects with two different categories.
          If you inspect the thumbnails they are called 1 and 2:

          0_1522429869369_Bildschirmfoto 2018-03-30 um 19.10.52.png

          I placed the images as project thumbnails:
          0_1522429906502_Bildschirmfoto 2018-03-30 um 19.11.26.png

          You will probably need to adjust the code.
          But this is the base and you can go on from there.

          Good luck!

          Dear @Toby

          this is the way to go:

          The code you just posted is already a step backward.

          Please try this code and let me know where the problem is.

          All the best!

            Hi Marius

            As I explained last week when I add the above code there is no mouse leave effect when the mouse leaves the thumbnail to revert back to the original colour (#f1f1f1)

            So I added this code to CSS - example for the red hover

            .red {
            background: #f1f1f1 !important;
            }
            .red:hover {
            background-color: #ff1900 !important;
            }

            Which nearly works, however the mouse leave doesn't revert back to #f1f1f1 until the mouse / pointer leaves the window - I'd like it to happen when the mouse leaves the thumbnail.

            Any ideas
            Cheers
            Toby

              Dear Toby,

              may I ask you to post the code in the this formatto this thread. And also make it as readable as possible for me. Breaks etc.
              Otherwise I need to do a surgery which costs a lot of time.

              Thank you

                  Hi Marius

                  Ok so far my code appears like this -

                  CUSTOM HEAD CONTENT:

                  <script>
                  window.laytheme.on("newpage", function(layoutObj, type, obj){
                  
                  jQuery(document).on("hover", ".thumb",
                  function(event) {
                  
                  jQuery("body").removeClass("red");
                  jQuery("body").removeClass("blue");
                  
                  var category = jQuery(this).attr("data-catid");
                  
                  if (category == 1) {
                    jQuery("body").addClass("red");
                    }
                  
                  if (category == 2) {
                  	jQuery("body").addClass("blue");
                    }
                  }
                  
                  );
                  
                  });
                  </script>
                  

                  and CSS

                  .red {
                  background: #f1f1f1!important;
                  }
                  .red:hover {
                  background-color: #ff1900  !important;
                  }
                  
                  .blue {
                  background: #f1f1f1 !important;
                  }
                  
                  .blue:hover {
                  background-color: #0280f8 !important;
                  }
                  

                  but the hover only works when the mouse leaves the window not when leaving the thumbnail

                  Chers

                        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:

                        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
