Lay Theme Forum

Hello, I tried several times to update Lay Theme from version 8.3.3 to 8.3.4. I follow the usual update procedure and the installation seems to complete successfully. However, after the installation dialogue closes, the update is still available, and Lay Theme remains on version 8.3.3.

Not sure if this only happens to me, but as far as I remember, this is the first time something like this has happened. Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you!

👋 Hello Armin, thank you for your reply. I’ve just sent you an email.

Hello, I recently updated to version 8.0.5 and noticed that I’m unable to edit a project's status, visibility, or publication date. However, I am still able to move a project to the bin. I’m using Safari, and the same issue occurs with Google Chrome and Firefox.

Hello, I am currently using Lay Theme 7.8.8 on WordPress 6.7.1, and I’ve encountered the following issues while using Safari to make edits:

• Unable to change font family or sizes.
• Cannot add or remove links.
• Unable to change text formats (e.g., headers or paragraphs).
• Adjusting line height or letter spacing doesn’t work.
• Night mode is non-functional.

I’m not sure if this is a problem specific to my website or if others are experiencing the same issues. Any guidance or assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your help!

Yes, exactly. Like a central location for all projects related to that specific tag. These destinations may include a brief description of the tag (to provide context and value to the content), as well as relevant external links, footer, etc. In my opinion, it's great for internal linking.

👋 Hello! Have you considered enabling content addition to tags, similar to categories?

Linking projects to tags could enhance SEO and potentially enable project/blog filtering by author, which is particularly useful when multiple authors or entities are involved.

This feature would improve the browsing experience, site structure, internal linking, and increase user engagement through exploring related content.

If tags are solely used for search and as filters in a project index, is it truly beneficial to assign them an empty destination, slug and description?

Hello @arminunruh, thank you for your swift response. The email has just been sent!

I would like to bring to your attention a bug I have encountered on my website. Specific links are currently unresponsive, while others are redirecting to random pages or categories within the site.

This bug becomes apparent when using the Overlay feature, especially in my mobile menu, where a majority of links are affected. Additionally, these issues persist in the Marquee feature, which I use as a footer on both desktop and mobile.

When you end up on the wrong page or category, the URL address bar correctly shows the intended destination (slug) but presents the wrong page. To get to the right page, you have to press enter again in the URL address bar. This can be confusing and makes it difficult for users to navigate the site seamlessly.

Hello, I'd like to share a couple of issues regarding the Overlay feature that I recently added to my website. While browsing from iPhone 12 on Safari or Yandex, specifically when the URL address bar is placed at the bottom, in most cases, there's a persistent bug; the overlay won't cover the entire screen (browser height). Finally, the Don't scroll while overlay is on option doesn't seem to work on mobile.

I've encountered similar issues on my website in the past two weeks. Specifically, certain links have become unresponsive, while others redirect to random pages or categories within the site. Notably, these problems are more apparent when using the Overlay feature, such as in my mobile menu, where most links are affected. The issues are also noticeable on the Marquee feature, which I use both on desktop and mobile as a footer.

Project thumbnails, images and carousel are not working.

Hello everyone, the latest 5.7.2 update caused major issues with my website. All elements have been moved to the left, both on desktop and mobile. This has completely messed up the site. I would appreciate your help. Thank you.

@arminunruh Well, as far as I remember, there were various options available, including the ability to mark the link as Sponsored, add a Title Attribute, and set up CSS Classes and Link Relationship (XFN).

@arminunruh It works perfectly now. Thank you!

Hey!

Just want to flag up an issue that seems to have arisen in one of the latest updates.

When I hover over a project thumbnail, it initially appears blank, and then the image loads. After that, the hover function works smoothly as usual. I suspect this is due to lazy loading, which delays loading images until they are needed, but it seems like a bug.

It would be nice to retain this feature in the mobile/tablet version to improve page loading speed, when project thumbnails are automatically synced from desktop.

Thank you,

Hello everyone,

I would like to draw your attention to an issue that may be affecting multiple users and has been persisting for the last few months.

In the past, we were able to modify external links by clicking on a gear icon ⚙️ that appeared after selecting the link. This feature allowed us to define whether it was do-follow or not, among other options.

However, now we can only choose whether to open it in a new tab during the initial setup, and we cannot modify it later (only the address is editable). IMO it would be useful to reintroduce this feature.

Thanks,

Hello everyone,

I recently created my graphic design portfolio using Lay Theme and the Carousel addon. Satisfied with the theme, easy to use, and stable.
