    Hej there, on my website I applied

    a{
    cursor: url(https://www.myurl.png), pointer;
    }
    

    to have a custom cursor pointer for all linked elements. The mouse over works fine for images and carousels, but for navigation items and links in text, the cursor does not stay in place, both in firefox and safari.

    Have I perhaps done something wrong? I can imagine that this requires custom code and would appreciate if you could still give me a hint! Maybe there is a way to have the custom pointer only applied for linked images and carousels? I don’t have to have the custom cursor for linked text and navigation, if that would make it easier…

    Everything is up to date and I don’t have any further custom css applied.

    Thank you, Susann

      Dear Susann

      @lilievongruen

      My first thoughts:
      Custom Cursors ( .png file ) will revert back to a default cursor if the .png has reached the edge of the viewport, does this appy for you?

      https://stackoverflow.com/questions/58414589/css-custom-cursor-image-is-reverting-near-edges-of-the-viewport-in-chrome

      Keep your cursor smaller or equal to 32x32 DIP.

        Thank you @Richard — cursor in 32x32 px with almost no white space around the object itself works perfect!

          I also code custom websites or custom Lay features.
          💿 Email me here: 💿
          info@laytheme.com

          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
