WordPress.com or WordPress.org?
Please do not get WordPress on WordPress.com. Lay Theme is for WordPress on WordPress.org. Read the installation instructions to find out more.
How do I install Lay Theme?
After you have purchased a license you will receive a download link and a license key. If you have not received a license key please write an email to info@laytheme.com.
To install Lay Theme you need your own webspace that runs WordPress. Please head to Installation to find out more.
Does Lay Theme have all the features I need?
Please take a look at the Documentation where I explain every important Lay Theme feature.
Does it have blog/news posts functionality?
No. Not sure if I will ever support blog functionality.
Can Lay Theme do a “Masonry” layout?
Yes, with the Elementgrid and Thumbnailgrid elements.
Does Lay Theme support WooCommerce?
WooCommerce will be supported in a future update. Not sure when it is coming.
Where do I get the invoice?
After your purchase you will receive an email by Gumroad that says "Receipt" in the subject. Inside, there is a button to generate your invoice. If you have any problems generating your invoice please write support@gumroad.com.
Do you offer refunds?
This depends on the reason given. If you’d like a refund please write an email to licensekeys@laytheme.com.
Can I use third party WordPress plugins?
If these are plugins that are used through shortcodes, yes. Since Lay Theme 1.9.8 shortcodes work by adding them in the Gridder with “+More” → “+Shortcode”. Enclosing shortcodes will not work, like [restricted_content] “content“ [/restricted_content] where “content” is multiple elements in between two shortcode elements.
If you need a contact form I suggest you use the free and excellent plugin Ninja Forms.
I cannot guarantee that all third party plugins will work. If you would like to try if Lay Theme works with a certain plugin before you purchase Lay Theme please send me an email to info@laytheme.com.
Can I modify Lay Theme’s code?
You cannot modify Lay Theme’s code because Lay Theme’s frontend is a minified JavaScript application (unreadable for humans).
However, there are admin panel fields for custom HTML, custom CSS and custom <head> content. You can insert your own JavaScript and use Lay Theme’s simple JavaScript API. This way you can execute your own JavaScript on any page of a Lay Theme website.
Does Lay Theme support Multilanguage?
Yes, with the plugin qTranslate-XT or Polylang. See how it works here.
Is there a standalone version of the Gridder?
Yes, get it on laygridder.com.
I have another question.
You can find answers in the Documentation or in the Forum. If you have a different question, found a bug or have an idea for Lay Theme let me know in the Forum.
