    Hi

    I've tried numerous ways to instal the laytheme on wordpress but the manual on the website seems to be outdated. When i log in to my wp the 'ad new' or 'upload theme' button isn't there (anymore). Also tried to upload the theme manualy via FTP (wp-contents folder > themes), but also doesn't work.

    When searching on the internet about uploading your own theme to WP, it states that this isn't possible anymore (?)

    I would very much like to use the theme, so hope someone can help me install it anywhays!

      i think, you are on the wrong site. try this: yourwebsite.com/admin/ then you are in the wordpress overview. Click "Design" and then "Themes". There you can add the theme. Hope this works... best, mona

        hey thomas!

        You are using wordpress of wordpress.com but what you need is wordpress on wordpress.org.

        Here http://laytheme.com/installation.html I wrote "Please don’t get WordPress hosting from wordpress.com. This is not compatible with Lay Theme."

        Sorry! :/

          I also code custom websites or custom Lay features.

          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
