Image Hover Add On – on Menu Items

[Richard]

Dear Jan @jae

Technically the built in Wordpress Menu is a bit different so unfortunately it doesn't work for that, Imagehover is made to work with the Gridder.

However i can see a work around that will reach the same conclusion:

Using a Footer within pages, you could set your menu links and apply Imagehover to them:

Then using Custom CSS within 'Lay Options - Custom CSS & HTML you can style how you wish :

Force the whole footer to the top making it the Header / Navigation.

Also remember to set the page you wish as the footer with the Button in the lower right corner:

As well as any options with the 'footer' setting in your left-hand admin bar :)

Hope this helps & best wishes

Richard

Dear All, I have a similar question.

I'm new to laytheme and maybe I'm not seeing the solution clearly, but I'm a bit confused:
On the Laytheme website, there is an image hover add on example like this:

where you can see the menu on the left, and then the image hovers when the cursor is on a project title.

On my website, I created my projects and added them to the menu, so they will always be shown:

Since the add-on cannot be used in the title; I can't use it here (without custom css I suppose).

How did they do it in the Laytheme example?
Are the project titles on the left not actual 'titles' but in a gridder? Or is it custom css there as well?

Hope it's not too confusing what I mean..
All the best,
Sonni

Dear @sonnisc

I believe it must be Project links added to a Gridder to act as a Menu, but a little confusing yes :/

Dear @Richard-Keith,
thank you a lot for your fast reply :-)
Okay, so I would need to make a detour around that and put the project titles in a gridder that act as a menu.

That opens up a new question: is it possible to then always show the "fake menu" still, also when you click on the project titles?

Like here: When you click on the project 'Non-Newspaper', the list of projects is still always shown on the left.

If I now take the detour and make a 'fake menu' (e.g. category with gridder including the linked projects), how do I achieve this?

Thank you for your time and help!
All the Best,
Sonni

Dear @sonnisc

If you want it to appear on every page in the same place, i would suggest adding this list to the footer, then giving the list some custom CSS that positions it on the page in the place you desire :)

Hope this helps Sonni!

Hi @Richard-K,

I've tried to work my way around to archieve the above-mentioned problem and used CSS for the first time. And it worked to now have a 'fake' Menu as a Footer on the left that's always shown (Ghost 2, Arecibo etc), so thank you a lot for the help with this :-)

But now, since I added the CSS, there is a space on the bottom when my projects are shown (see picture); even though in the gridder the bottom frame is set to zero. The pictures should always end with the screen.

Do you know how I can solve this problem?
I couldn't find someone having a similar problem..

All the best and again thank you for your help,
Best,
Sonni

Dear @Richard-K,

I've found a solution and played with the CSS; it had something to do with the assigned position of the footer and frames.
Thank you anyway, for everything! I couldn't have managed to make a website without Laytheme and the Forum Help; it's really amazing!:)

All the Best,
Sonni
