Lay Theme Forum

Hey there!

I got a problem with the plugin "mailpoet" that I want to use for my newsletter. The curious thing is, that it is just working fine of one of my pages and it does not on the other.

The trouble for now is, that the standard confirmationen pages etc. are not working.

Working
https://shop.richardlennox.de/?mailpoet_page=subscriptions&mailpoet_router&endpoint=subscription&action=confirm_unsubscribe&data

Not working
https://loov.berlin/?mailpoet_page=subscriptions&mailpoet_router&endpoint=subscription&action=confirm&data

Does anybody have a clue where to investigate? I already tried reinstalling, that did nothing, I ran the troubleshooter, without laytheme the plugin is working fine and displaying the pages as intended.

I am also happy for recommendations which Newsletter tools work perfect with laytheme and maybe just change the tool.

Thank you big time for the thorough feedback.

That did exactly what I wanted and I learned a valuable lesson :)

Hey Laytheme Community,

I feel kinda stupid about this, but somehow it seems i miss something really essential here. I searched the forums for a solution but couldnt find it yet.

I want to give a textframe a black background.

From my understanding, I would give a text frame a CSS class and adjust the background color using that class.

However, if I apply the custom CSS class it doesnt seem to do anything. Using the inspector, I also cannot see the CSS class.

What am I doing wrong here? I am pretty sure the CSS class name should be unique.

Thanks in advance for any hints and sorry for the superbasic problem.

Thank you for the Feedback Richard! I ll keep an eye out for the next updates then!

Hello Lay Community and happy new years to everyone!

First of all, I gotta say how much I love laytheme. Coming from Indesign etc. it is the perfect tool for me and so far I could get most of the things that I wanted to do to work.

Now I've run into an issue I cant solve myself.

What I am trying to do is to have an image aligned to the bottom of my page while using the full screen slider.

However, I cant manage to have it flush with the button. When I try to use offset or something, the image is just cut of and I have this border on the button which pretty much takes away the effect I am trying to achieve.

I tried everything I could find with the frame boarder, distance to bottom etc. The issue seems to be related to the Full Screen Slider maybe?

I am using an iPhone 11 with Safari to evaluate right now.

Here are some screenshots to illustrate my problem.
(I got an animated background on the page to explain the changes)

How it looks right now:

How it looks when I use the offset:

And this is how I would like it to look, I turned full screen slider off for this one but I wanna use it to have the page scroll horizontally:

I might add that I only have very, very basic CSS etc. understanding.

Does anybody have an idea how to fix this?

so i cleared the lazy image placeholder color and voilá: issue solved.

so it wasnt an issue with the SVG really but some weird behaviour with the lazy load.

ok so i found out that the color is related to the "lazy load placeholder" color i can select in the layoptions.

the issues also persists with png

however, it just keeps the color and appearently never finishes loading.

is this a proper bug or what is happening?

hi there,

thanks for the reply.

i see what you are saying there, but i doubt thats the reason tbh.

i ve put in another graphic, which could hardly be too complex and i have exactly the same issue.

also... why does it work fine as a background image? thats the thing that make the least sense to me.

Hi everybody.

I cant seem to figure this out on my own. Been browsing the web for quite a while now and unfortunatly i am not a trained webcoder.

So I like using SVGs to have crispy graphics at any solution, and also because I like the cutout effect. And its been working fine for thumbnails, titles etc.

Now the really weird part: I have this page here, where i added the svg once as a background image. As you can see its cutout just fine. Than i selected the exact same file and put it in as a "regular" image in the gridder. And it displays with a white background!

And the weirdest thing is... it looks like i would want it in the gridder preview.

PS: I used SVG Support Plugin and Now "Safe SVG", no difference

Could anybody please help me with this or redirect me to a solution?

aye! too bad i dont really know javascript, just a little css. there is a php script instead of the shortcode provided.

e.g:

<?php echo do_shortcode("[textillate effect_in='fadeInLeftBig' type_in='sequence' effect_out='hinge' type_out='shuffle']The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.[/textillate]"); ?>

would you know right away how to implement that or would it also include the javascrip thing? or do you have another suggestion how i could add some dancing / moving letters to a lay website with my coding handicap?

btw: this is the plugin i was looking at, from what i have seen it seems pretty versatile and easy to use in general. just not inside lay: https://wordpress.org/plugins/easy-textillate/

best, r

hi everybody!
i am having a blast adjusting my website using lay, and so far i found it very easy to do.

i have been running into an issue today, that i was unable to solve on my own yet.

i would like to use the functionallity of the easy textillate plugin to add some animation to some words. unfortunatly i cant figure out how to get the shortcodes working. it will just display the shortcodes along with the text and no animation.

does anybody know how to solve this? or another solution for me to have some blinking and moving text?

cheers everybody!
