    Hey kim! When exporting with migrate db, afaik you only export 1 file which is a gzipped sql file. Or just a sql file. Should look like this: db2597341-migrate-20160827085604.sql or db2597341-migrate-20160825173231.sql.gz This line of text contains all Customize settings. Search for the word "pa_icon" and find some text that looks like: "pa… What you are referring to here only applies if everything worked but your customize settings are lost after you imported the database. Actually this is a pretty rare case, but I had this problem once.

    hello, yes this can happen if you upload the zip that you get. You need to unpack the zip as mentioned in http://laytheme.com/installation.html "Step 3". Inside there is a file called "lay.zip" and thats the one you need to upload. You probably figured this out by yourself but I'm just posting this in case others experience this problem. :)

    Hey, yes all-inkl is especially problematic with wordpress. For this host often the htaccess isn't writeable and the uploads folder isn't writable.

    Hey! Hmm, I think transferring your domain takes some time. Meanwhile you should have gotten a different web-address from bluehost to access your website. Can you ask them about this problem please? I hope it will work :)

    I hope u could fix the problem! Sometimes it's just enough to go to "settings" -> "permalinks" and hit "save" again

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
