Help: I’m missing a bunch of elements I’ve already built out in the visual composer. I added a chunk of custom html and after that is when I noticed everything below that element is missing. When I go to previous revisions it still is there and doesn’t seem to be loading any previous revisions. Not sure what to do. Here is a screenshot to show you what I mean.
http://i.imgur.com/EK49gT7.jpgIt ended up being the bit of raw html that I had included which was causing every element below it to disappear on the visual composer. I’m not sure exactly why this would occur.
Hey – the latest version of the theme includes an updated VC which sorts this issue 
Ok. I think I have the latest version of VC. Is this a problem that has occurred for other people? I wish I could show you the problem but it only occurs within the dashboard. When I click text view in the page editor I can see all my elements but as soon as I click visual everything underneath the Raw HTML section disappears in the VC.
The current version of VC is 4.7 and yes this was a known issue with prior versions
Ok, so it seems that the VC plugin with my Salient theme is version 4.6.2 which could be the problem. Is there anyway I can update the VC to 4.7?
Hey – yes, you need to update your version of the theme – once you do the latest VC will be included and you can upgrade it from the appearance > install plugins section
Hi, thank you heaps for this amazing theme! I love the flexibility, how clean the backend is and the great documentation! Superb work!
There is one question which I couldn’t figure out – on my various portfolio item pages, I would like to show images which span the entire width of the screen (not just the middle content area). Placing the images as full-width backgrounds doesn’t work since I don’t have any content to place on top of them (and thus the images won’t show up).
Is there a code snippet I could insert into the custom css box which would make the content width always equal to the screen width? Or is there another workaround to show images of various heights in full width (without any text layer on top)?
Hey!
You could get away with using a full width content row type and and a image element inside of it 
Cheers
Thanks a lot!
You’re welcome 
Hi – I’m running into a padding / margin problem with the transparent menu. On full page view as pictured in the first picture below, I’d like to create more margin between the “A Journey Towards Hope” header and the menu header at the top as they are stacked next to each other. I thought a simple divider would do fine.
However when I shrink the width of the screen, at a point the margin/padding kicks in and I have the space I need. Therefore if I do add the divider, now I will create way too much space on the smaller width.
Is there a way I can add margin/padding to the bottom of the transparent menu but not when the menu becomes white?
Thanks!

Hey,
Have you tried to simply use row padding for that row with a % value for the top padding input? e.g 15%

Hi, my mobile version of the website is not loading at all. http://fun4every1watersports.com
Hey, try disabling your plugins as one might be overriding your regular theme choice
Hi TN,
Did you find a solution to this (http://themeforest.net/item/salient-responsive-multipurpose-theme/4363266/comments?page=686&filter=all#comment_10850398) issue yet?
I’m experiencing the very same issue, plus I believe some parts of the site aren’t working correctly. For example, I can’t upload any header images or video’s in a nectar slider since the button upload/remove button won’t work.
Please provide an answer here, because Ticksy isn’t working for me (yours and others).
Cheers!
Okay I think the solution is to be found in renaming the theme folder name to Salient. Why is this the solution, can’t we give the theme folder a custom name?
Hey,
You can rename the folder but not when the theme was already active – make sure you have it deactivated with another theme before trying to rename it
Cheers
Allright, thanks!
You’re welcome

Hi – if I wanted to disable all transparent header menus on mobile, what would be the CSS for that? I’d like to keep transparent header on full screen but disable on smaller devices. Thanks.
Additionally, I’ve also found that I’ll need to keep the logo I have set for “dark” to be displayed at all times in mobile views since the header bar is white. Thanks!
Hey,
Please share your URL so I can inspect your current site options 
Cheers
Hi – I’m currently using a transparent header on my pages that upon scroll, turns into a normal header with a bg color.
Is there a way I can control the timing of when the transparent header turns into the normal header? Like if I wanted the switch to happen a bit further down the page instead of upon immediate scrolling?
Thank you!
Hey,
This would require modding to the init.js file located in the js folder – search for “smallNav()” to end up at the right place 
Cheers
Hi, what particle settings will get my density like this? http://craftedbygc.com Thanks 
Also, can I place the particles on the right? but keep the text content on the left?
Hey, these both would require modding to the particle javascript file – i’ve noted the ideas for the wishlist though 
Can I pay to have this done, or are you able to do it for free? Or will i need to find someone external to do it? because I can’t wait too long, maybe 2-3 weeks 
Hey – you’d need to contact someone at Envato Studio in regards 
Ok thanks
You’re welcome 
Is there anyway to have only the “3 lines” navigation on page load, and then only when the user scrolls down, they can see the navigation items ? At the moment, it looks like you can only have both the menu showing and the lines at once for the user to be able to to see the menus items going across the top of the page . Thanks
Hey,
This would take some custom javascript development at the moment unfortunately
Cheers

Hey – I would recommend checking out Envato Studio in regards 
Hi – would it be possible to just make the menu icon (the hamburger) sticky and not the rest of the header or logo? I am using the off canvas menu option.
Thanks!
Hey!
this would require modding the header.php file as of now since the logo and nav are in the same div which is set to be be fixed at the top
Cheers
I messed up my horizontal sort portfolios:
http://www.jordantparrott.com/portfolio/How do I fix it?
Hey, add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
#portfolio-filters-inline .container > ul a {
width: auto!important;
}
I just upgraded to the latest salient and I’m having menu transparency issues. I had the mainmenu black on the homepage counselorapp(.)com. Now its transparent and the menu isn’t as visisble as it is on other pages
Hey – do you not have the transparent header option activated in the Salient options panel?
Hey guys, You must be buys, sorry quick 2 questions; 1. How much would it cost to get you guys to custom code the category descriptions to show in the shop? 2. Can you provide, if even possible, some CSS to make the SKU and category description part on the product page a bit bigger and bold? Thanks so much!
Dave
Hey,
1. You’d need to check on Envato studio in regards since we don’t personally offer customization services
2. It could be done with css and i’d be glad to help, could you provide your URL?
Cheers
.woocommerce div.product_meta {
font-size: 17px!important;
}
I like the theme, but not the blog layout. Is there a way to insert the title below(and out of) the background/header? If so, I will definitely buy it.
Hey, that would currently take some custom development to the single.php file
I see. Well, I’d rather search for another template. Thanks for the quick reply.
No problem
hello! i’m trying to change the number of post the will show off on my Blog, but it doesn’t seems to make any change on my site..
cheers
hey! Forget about this!
I have a different problem now, on my site the caracters show one in capital and in lowercase.
cheers
Hey,
Could you share your URL so I can take a look?
Cheers
In the typography options tab of your Salient options panel change the text transform option from “capitalize” on your h3 selection
Hello – Presale question
I’ve been following the comments the last handful of days and saw there were many issues with the Salient update and Visual Composer for Wordpress 4.3. I saw there was an update on VC today to fix the compatibility with WP 4.3. Will you be integrating this latest VC update with Salient right away or will there be a long delay?
Thank you.
Hey,
The VC is going to be updated tomorrow, also the only current confirmed issue with VC 4.6.2 and WP 4.3 is related to the raw HTML element, if you’re not using that or relying on it for major parts of your site you could still get away with using those versions for the next day since it only effects the backend and not the front
Cheers
Hello – What type of issue is with the Raw HTML element? I frequently use that VC element. Do I need to hold of purchasing Salient then?
Do you know when the issue will be addressed?
Also have all bug been worked out with WooCommerce with WP, VC and Salient?
Thank you
The update was released today to fix the bug (v6.1.2) and yes there are no issues with WooCommerces and Salient at the moment
Hey ThemeNectar,
I’ve been struggling for ages now to try and adjust the dimensions of the columns that make up the masonary portfolio layout, but whatever css I change, it doesn’t seem to have the desired result, so I was wondering if you could assist me please?
What I’m trying to achieve is this: http://hophopfashion.com/new_home_layout_hophop-fashion.jpg
But the closest I can get is this: http://hophopfashion.com/new-layout/
So essentially I need to make the first column wider and the remaining columns thinner.
Any help would be massively appreciated. Many thanks.
Hey,
Are you making sure that you’re uploading the images in the minimum required dimensions as listed in the theme user guide? e.g. 1000px X 500px for the wide size etc.
Cheers
Thanks for getting back to me.
I’ve uploaded the images to the minimum required dimensions, but unfortunately that hasn’t made any difference.
It’s the dimensions of the columns that I’d like to adjust rather than the images themselves. Please see the links again to see what I mean. The first column in my example is much wider than the next three. Please let me know if you have any suggestions of how I can achieve this.
Many thanks.

Just following this up as I haven’t heard anything back yet.
Hey – you’d need to modify the values in the responsive.css file in regards: Search for
body .portfolio-items.constrain-max-cols .col.elastic-portfolio-item.tallin that stylesheet to end up at the right section, you’ll see that the width is currently set to just under 25%
Changing the CSS doesn’t seem to work unfortunately. I just end up with the image that should be in the top right-hand corner (Monrow) being forced to the bottom and the rest of the section being filled with gaps.
Please see here for what I mean: http://hophopfashion.com/new-layout/
Any other suggestions?
HELLO??? 3 DAYS WITHOUT ANSWER IN THEME SUPPORT… NEED HELP, PLS
Hey there, please share your ticket ID so I can check into it
Cheers
Been using Salient for 1.5 years! LOVE IT!....but…I feel sorta like a newbie with this question….how do I switch to the AGENCY THEME? I’m still using the classic version and can’t figure it out. Thanks so much!
Hey!
It’s not necessarily a theme to switch to, just a combination of a bunch of new options available in the Salient options panel – if you wanted to see the ones used you could import the theme options text file into the Salient options panel > import/export tab. Just make sure to export your current settings first since they will be overwritten
Cheers
