Hi Armin,

maybe this has already been asked and answered somewhere. If so, I’d appreciate a link.

Otherwise, my question is:

how can I make all project thumbnails the same height, even if the titles have different lengths? Sometimes the titles are one line, sometimes two lines, which makes the thumbnails different heights. Since I’m using a background color for the entire project thumbnail, it would be great if they were all the same height.

Is there a way to do this with custom CSS? I just can’t figure it out. I’ve tried all sorts of things, but nothing seems to work. :-/

Ok ok! I totally understand. 😝 Only do things that reach a broader audience. 😎 But thank you for having a look.

Actually I did something similar for my shop:
https://aleksandartodorovic.com/shop/

Every row is a different project/product category. It works perfectly. 💗

@arminunruh said in "load more" button for projects:

its actually the first time someone ever asked for this :O

I’m usually quite good at that! 🤣😵‍💫 Thanks for clearing up.

Nevertheless I thought I’d just share my idea: basically, it’s a refined selection for the user, sorted by categories, which are then divided into additional sub-categories. It’s a more defined way of structuring things to create a kind of overview page or index that gives a nice, clear snapshot of everything.

Hey Armin! Thanks for the update, really appreciate how quickly you pulled this off. 🙌

Now I have a quick question: I’m trying to show multiple Projects Thumbnail sections on one page with “Load More” buttons. Could it be that “Load More” can’t be used multiple times on the same page? Some are showing up some don’t. 🧐

Also, I was wondering if it’s possible to add AND and OR options for the category filter as well, similar to what already exists for tags.

And last but not least, (just a suggestion), since potentially there could be a lot of projects, it would be amazing to have a small search field that visually matches the filter bubbles. The more projects there are, the more useful a quick search becomes. 😵‍💫😆

Hola Armin,

I’m trying to add some web fonts from Adobe Fonts using a link tag, but the changes won’t save. Uploading fonts works fine, tho.

Hi Armin,
I tried editing some text in the gridder, but as soon as I double-click it, the gridder disappears. It becomes completely invisible. When I refresh the page, it shows up again. Is this a bug?

The page has almost no plugins.

Thank youu

Hola Armin!

I tried deleting some imported fonts, but I can’t seem to do it. A pop-up window appears outside the browser window, and I can’t access it. Is this a bug, or is there a way to fix it?

Hi there!

I’m wondering if it’s possible to implement conditional filtering in the Thumbnail Grid. For example, to display only the projects that are tagged with both category A and category B, while excluding those that are tagged with only one of them.

Ah ok! That would be sooo amazing! Saving my ass! :-DDDD

Looking forward! Appreciate and love your effort. LayTheme is outstanding! ;-)

Hello Armin,

having a bunch of questions these days. :-)

So I was wondering if there is a Load More button for Project thumbnails? I see that it already exists for News.

I’m using Projects as a database, and there will be a large number of documents in certain categories, so displaying them all at once would be too much. :-S

Could I create a Load More button for Projects somehow?

Hey Armin,

I assume there’s still no update regarding the tag URL tags. I’m wondering if there might be any workaround? Maybe through a plugin or a code snippet to assign these tags manually.

I have a page that features multiple projects (ca. 200), and I’d like visitors to be able to filter them using an advanced search filter. I was thinking of using the Everything Filter plugin for this purpose, but I’m not sure whether it’s compatible with Lay Theme.

I was hoping there might be some way to make this work.

All best,
Aleks

merci! :-)

Hi there!

is there a simple and smooth way to embed IG, FB and YT content into LayTheme (Social wall)? Do you have any recommendations for plugins?

Thanks for any advice!

Oh wow! I just saw there's a sidebar! Amazing!!! :-D
Though background image or background color for stacks is missing. Would be great´if there's this option, too. :-)

Hi Armin,

Not sure if this is a bug, but I can’t seem to resize text fields inside a stack. They always snap back to the original size. The only way is to take the text out of the stack, resize it, and then put it back in.

Hi there!

I use the stack element a lot to group and move things around. For styling, I usually add background colors, borders, or rounded corners with external CSS, which works fine for me but can be a bit confusing for the client since they don’t see those changes in the LayTheme backend.

So just a thought: it might be handy to add to the existing right-click option where you can adjust things like background color or border directly on any object (stack, text, image, etc.). That way the client could make small tweaks more easily.

Or is there an option to activate that? :-D

Hey Armin,

sorry for my late reply.

As much as I’d love to commission you, unfortunately my budget doesn’t allow for it. It’s a small alumni network of an art school, and the budget is correspondingly quite limited. :-S
There are some plugins that seem to be what I’m looking for, but you have to pay without testing them in advance, which feels a bit weird.

Hey LayTheme community!

I'm looking for a LayTheme-compatible plugin to create a small, invite/registration-based social network where logged-in users can see selected content and profiles only. I’ve found a few, but unsure about quality. :-/

Any first-hand recommendations from folks who’ve done this with LayTheme?

Hi Armin! Thank you. Looking forward. :-)
