    Hello Tamar! I think it would be good for you to create your website locally on your computer using maybe mamp https://www.mamp.info You could also create your new website on a subdomain of your current website like new.tamarbd.com Maybe that is easier. You would have to insert all of your content of the current website into the lay theme website by hand. For example you would need to create projects and put your images inside. When your new lay theme website is finished, you would need to move that website to tamarbd.com. I wrote a little explanation here about how to move a lay theme website: http://laytheme.com/documentation.html#moving-website This may be a bit hard to do if you haven't moved a website before and I was thinking to create a video tutorial about that one day. If you want to recreate your website so that it looks the same as right now, I think maybe lay theme would not be the right choice. There is no built in support for a menu that has sections like your menu for example. If you like I can send you a test account login so you can try the theme a bit and then you can make your decision if you want to buy it.

    Hmmm, a good way to do this is to use shortcodes but I deactivated shortcodes for lay theme for now. You can also use javascript: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Date You could create a textelement in the footer, give it a class and then use the "newpageshown" event to add the date string into that element. http://laytheme.com/documentation.html#newpage-events

    Hi Armin, Great! Now it works. Thank you a lot. At first I thought it is just a small fix needed, so I posted into the existing thread. Sorry for that. Next time own topic. I promise! šŸ™ˆ

    Hey! Or, is there any way to achieve the effect by which projects appear on a Category page by their title only? In such a manner that on mouse rollover the project thumbnail image appears? Good idea, at the moment there is no such effect. Gonna write it down though and think about it.

    Hey! When u hover over an element, there is a "class" button. U can use that for custom css styling. Here's an example "create a custom button style": http://laytheme.com/documentation.html#custom-css-styling In Lay Theme, normally an element will always overlap a preceding element. Also elements inside a row will always overlap elements of a previous row. With the latest lay theme version you can also right click an empty spot of a row and set a row class. That might help with some z-index things you want to do.

    Hey! If u have 1.6.0 or later, then you can update within the backend. If you have a version before 1.6.0 you need to deactivate and delete the theme and upload the latest version.

    @arminunruh Thank you. (Pretty nice theme!) I meant the images beside the projects. Both are inserted via the Image button. Anyways, your last sentence gave me the right answer: I missed the "Edit Caption" button in the gridder header. Thanks!

    hey!! not possible :/ If you are a developer, lay theme might not be the right choice for you cause you can't change its code that much. This summer im going to work on a standalone version of the gridder and with that people can just code their own themes and then use the gridder with any theme.

    Hey Christina! Ah yea, will fix that for the next update. For now you can set that opacity back to 100% and use this css in "lay options" -> "custom css" -> "css for mobile version": .navbar{ background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0.7); } You can change the number 255,255,255 to get a different color (rgb). the last one 0.7 is the opacity (0-1)

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
