    Hello,

    Is there a simple way to have a random background image on the Home page ?
    I know it isn't a lay option but I guess it's something simple in javascript ? (but I don't know js so...)

    All I know is that it should begin like that :
    (id:72 correspond to my landing page)

    <script>
    window.laytheme.on("newpageshown", function(layoutObj, type, obj){
    
      if(type == "page" && obj.id == 72){
     // Put all of your js, without document ready inside here 
    
      }
    });
    </script>
    

    So basically not much... And add a class in html.

    I found a lot of different codes online like those :

    but can't make them to work... And I don't know if I should write the paths to the images as a link "http://..." or "/media/img.jpg"

    Sorry for my vague message. But it seems a lot of people would to add that to their land page so it would be nice to have an easy solution somewhere.

    Thank you very much !

      I also code custom websites or custom Lay features.
      šŸ’æ Email me here: šŸ’æ

      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
