Lay Theme Forum

Be grateful for this feature when possible!

hey, I would suggest using the shortpixel plugin, it bulk optimises images and has the option to use webp which is great for loading times too without compromising quality too much.

any chance of this @arminunruh? thanks

@charleyray might be something to do with your 'intro' being activated?

hi @arminunruh last update on this: i spoke to the server technicians and they said:

thought you might be interested in seeing it.

i did a fresh wp install and was all working fine again until i created a new category and assigned projects to it and then returned to the thumbnail grid to switch off the new category and thats when it vanishes from the grid.

i've tried numerous things but just going to have to deal with the thumbnail grid not loading on the gridder which is fine really as still works on the live website. I started a new wp install which fixed the project thumbnail mouseover.

sorry for so many posts on this.

hi again armin, the 'project mouseover thumbnail' setting is switched on but isn't in the gridder project page, it's just gone, could this be related?

It shows up in the code and when I untick 'display:none' it shows but crashes the wp-admin.

All my other sites on the same host/server are working fine, just seems to be this subdomain causing some issues. hmm...

thanks for fixing this!

One last thing with the search function is, I'm building an overlay page to be used for a menu but the '#search' link doesn't work in the overlay.

As always thanks your help!

so I created a fresh install of wordpress to recreate the issue and it worked fine, no problems, until I imported the xml file of the posts, pages and media and then the issue occurred again. Let me know what you think @arminunruh, my host (Siteground) have an expert care service to take a closer look but it is quite expensive.

I did get this email sent to me which looks unrelated but you might want to see it, regarding the lightbox: See screenshot.

They sent me back this screenshot saying I should speak to you again about it... https://www.awesomescreenshot.com/image/51070795?key=6e559732e3ee7970c04b5ffef552d5bb

@arminunruh thanks man, I spoke to them and they say it is because there is 'mixed content' on my site. The issue still occurs though after sorting that, hmm, is strange as my other sites don't have this issue.

so with some further troubleshooting, it seems to be only an issue now when i activate the category filter. If I set up a thumbnail grid without the category filter it shows up all the time on the grid but when I add the filter it disappear on the gridder - still shows up on the live page which is the main thing. Just an issue if I want to update the thumbnail grid down the line I need to create a new one. Hope that makes sense.

seems to be working now if i just delete the old thumbnail grid which wasn't showing images and then create a new one.

when I create a new thumbnail grid the old and the new one works until I refresh the page. Just speaking to the server people to see if they can suggest anything.

@arminunruh ah interesting, that makes sense as I just needed to free up some space on my server. I've got some free space now but maybe not enough as issue still occurring.

@arminunruh hmm nah didn't fix it, have emailed you there, thanks!

you should have it now!

Hey @arminunruh

Is it possible for project thumbnail search results to use the background colour on hover?

These are my hover settings for thumbnails but when I search a project and hover on the thumbnail it just adjusts brightness but with no colour overlay.

Be great for this to be included.

Thanks as always.

Hi @arminunruh

There is a strange code on the left side of the gridder that says:
Failed to load plugin url: https://mvg.alasdairdimmick.com/wp-content/themes/lay/fontmanager/assets/js/tinymce_plugin/tinymce_fontloader.js?ver=7.3.7

and the thumbnail grid is blank on the gridder, it loads fine on the live page.

Screenshots attached. The thumbnail grid is in the stack under the wave graphic but you can't see the images on the gridder.

if you go here: https://mvg.alasdairdimmick.com/zine-poster-exhibition/ and click, 'Artist Video Interviews' button, the youtube embed video still plays after closing the overlay. I'm on the latest version hmm

@arminunruh works great, thank you armin!

and yeah there are great settings already in the customiser, I was just thinking that because the category filter acts kinda like a button maybe for consistency you would want to use the same style of buttons throughout your site so the filter could have rounded borders etc like your other buttons for example

It's easy enough via css but maybe if you didn't know css you would like this.
