Lay Theme Forum

Hi everyone,
I've posted this already and bug reports, but I hope someone here might have an idea how to help me, so I'm posting it again:

I'm currently working on the following website for a customer:
https://2026.preciflex.com/

I have a problem with the Overlay function. In the menu, I have a contact button, which opens an overlay to a contact form. In my footer, I have another button to the same link, which should also open the overlay, but instead it opens the contact form regularly. It also doesn't work if I put a regular link on the main body of the side.

Additionally, I wanted to work on this page:
https://2026.preciflex.com/expertise-wip/

Here I wanted to put grid of buttons, which should all open a different overlay, but I have here the same problem as before. For now I only created the overlay page for "Micromechnics". Does anyone of you know what I'm doing wrong or what I can do to make it work?

I hope someone has some helpful advice. All the best and have a beautiful rest of the week!

Hi Richard,
Thanks for your kind reply. It's already great to see where the problem comes from. :)

This video element is not part of any additional CSS we have added, so I guess it is a bug. It's also weird as even when I change the opacity to 0 in the CSS, the videos appear in the preview, but not anymore if you load them on the regular browser. (When I go back to "Customize", the videos are disappeared again, even though the code is still there.)

I will try to fix it with a friend on the weekend who is more advanced than me with CSS and JavaScript, but if you have any idea how to make it work, of course, it would be a great help! ^^

All the best, and stay safe!

Hi everyone,
I don't know if you have found already an answer to this bug, but I'm currently facing the same problem.

I'm adding portrait videos as thumbnails, and the projects are clickable, but I can't see them on my computer. On my phone, they are showing up and are playing and are clickable, so I'm also not sure what to do with it. ^^

It would be great if you could help me with this!

You'll find the website I'm working on under https://preciflex.luca-gruber.de/

All the best

Luca

PS ( the videos are h264 encoded mp4s and they also show up in the preview in Wordpress on my computer, but not afterwards)

Hi everyone,
First of all, I'm still entirely new to Lay Theme, but I'm enjoying a lot to work with it and thanks a lot for all your hard work on it and this community.

There are already some forum posts about the issue I'm currently facing, but I couldn't find/understand a proper solution.

I'm using a fullscreen slider as an introduction for the website, and I want to use a white logo (png with transparent bg) and white navigation elements in front of this slider. When you scroll and the fullscreen slider disappears, it should exchange

• list item the logo (a different coloured png)

• the colour of the navigation elements

• to a white background instead of a transparent one

I know there should be a possibility to do this with IntersectionObserver. Still, as I'm not very familiar with jQuery, I would be very thankful to anyone who can explain or reference an "easy" solution for this problem. (Also, I'm just slightly scared how to include it in the custom HTML & CSS section as I don't want to break anything ^^)

Here is the website as a reference; I hope everything is understandable:

Thanks a lot, Richard!
I think this was a great help for my case!

I wish you all the best for the rest of this week!

Kind regards

Hi everyone,
I'm pretty new to Lay Theme, and I have only developed my WordPress website with Lay Theme, but I'm a big fan!

One of my clients asked me to work on a new design for their website. They are using already WordPress and have a domain they want to keep, but I don't have access to the hosting of their website. Now I wanted to kindly ask for advice from some more experienced lay theme users. ^^

Do you think it would be the best solution to buy a new domain and webspace, which I can use in the future also for other clients (and move the new website when it's finished to their web space)? Or do you have other suggestions or experiences on how you are designing new websites for your clients?

I'm sorry if there is already a thread about this; I couldn't find one for now. Every helpful tip would be highly appreciated, and I hope you are all doing great in these crazy covid times!

All the best ^^
