Hi Themenectar

Having an issue with Pie chart element, whenever I put them anywhere on any page The page refuses to load just the loading circle (as soon as i remove the pie chart element the pages load fine). This only happened when I upgraded recently to the most recent version. Is this a bug or is it just me? I’ve tried deactivating all plugins and no luck.

4.3.5 it does say update required too O_o I’ll do that right away and see what happens

It WORKS!!! thank you you’re the best!

You’re welcome :)

Trying to setup the theme but the problem I have is that the theme isn’t structured like the demo. I thought that the demo content would display all pages, demo examples (not customs links that link back to the main sites). Is there a way to start customisation from the exact look the demo has? I know some photos will not be there! Thanks

Hey – which dummy data have you imported and can you share a URL so I can see your setup?

i figured it out!

Glad to hear :)

Hey there! I recently updated from v5 to v6.1.65 via FTP. Unfortunately my whole site crashed, widgets where empty, every post was off ect. Is there a way to update it without those troubles, did i made a mistake or should i just stay with v5?

Hey – when updating from an older version make sure to install and activate the Salient Visual Composer which is now included as a plugin (it was previously automatically built in and turned on). You can find it in the appearance > install plugins tab in your WP admin

Cheers

Hi there! How can I change the color of the numbers in my numbered list? Thank you!

Hey,

could you kindly share your URL in regards so I can take a look

Cheers

Hi thanks for the response! I decided to go another route without numbered lists, thanks anyway!

You’re welcome :)

Hey there, me again :)

I need to show categories and attributes of a portfolio item inside it’s page.

I found this code to show the attributes:

$project_attrs = get_the_terms( $post->ID, 'project-attributes' );
if (!empty($project_attrs))

{
foreach($project_attrs as $attr)
echo '<p>' . $attr->name . '</p>';
}     

but can’t find the categories. Please provide the code if you can. Thanks!

Hey, use this inside of the loop
 $terms = get_the_terms($post->id,"project-type");
                       $project_cats = NULL;

     if ( !empty($terms) ){
         foreach ( $terms as $term ) {
             $project_cats .= strtolower($term->name) . ' ';
         }
     }
echo $project_cats;

Hello.

I’m really sorry, but i’m having a super weird problem on my woocommerce shop page.

My shop page should have sidebar + 4 columns to display products. By default salient shows 3 columns of products on sidebar page and 12 max products per page (then a navigation appears at the bottom if needed, which is ok). The thing is that whenever I force it to display 4 columns instead of 3 something really weird happens when you navigate to the second page of products and so on, it actually shows again some products that were on the first page of that category. Obviously checked for duplicated products, but none of them are actually duplicated on the backend.

The snippets I have tried so far:

On function.php
add_filter('loop_shop_columns', 'loop_columns');
if (!function_exists('loop_columns')) {
    function loop_columns() {
        return 4; // 4 products per row
    }
}
The CSS you suggest here, with and without the snippet above:
body.woocommerce .main-content .span_9 ul.products li.product, body .woocommerce-page  .main-content .span_9 ul.products li.product {
   width: 23%!important;
}
.woocommerce ul.products li.first, .woocommerce-page ul.products li.first {
  clear: none!important;
}
 .woocommerce .main-content ul.products li.product.last {
  margin-right: 2%!important;
}
.woocommerce ul.products li:nth-child(4n+5) {
 clear: both!important;
}

This is driving me crazy already, I would really appreciate if you can take a look at it please!.

This is the url i’m currently developing at: dev[dot]bigbuda[dot]cl/pazul/categoria-producto/alimentos-y-snacks/

Best Regards.

Yes, switched to T.Fourteen and it does the same :’(. It has to be Woocommerce then? I have updated it to last version.

Would really appreciate any thoughts on this. Best Regards.-

UPDATE: I think I’ve solved it.

I’m really sorry for asking here, even tho it’s not related to the template (i didn’t know), but changing templates as you suggested helped me out finding the bug.

It actually has something to do with the way Woocommerce sort products, switched to the default sorting method and it works as it should again.

Leaving this here if someone else experiences this issue. Best Regards.-

Hey – glad to hear! Thanks for positing your findings here

Hi there,

great theme :-)

Can you tell me where i can upload the demo content? In the package i can only download the settings, but not the demo content, pages etc.

Many thanks and hope to hear from you.

Cheers!?

Hey,

The dummy data xml files should be included in folders inside of the main download form ThemeForest http://i.imgur.com/c36tWCt.png

Hi 1. How can I add a border on Nectar slider?

2. Can I change the bottom style in nectar slider? I would like it look same as the bottom in demo home slider.

thank you

Hey,

1. Please share your URL so I can see what settings you’re using

2. That’s the style available for the page header, but i’ve noted to also allow it to apply on the slider

Cheers

Hello. Some quick help if you would… in the user guide this is what it says…..

“Just make sure to satisfy those sizes when uploading your images or else the proportions will be off and your grid won’t fit snug. It’s also worth reiterating that you don’t have to upload the images at those exact sizes – they’re just the minimum sizes. So for example, an image uploaded at 850px by 900px would satisfy the “Regular” size and the thumbnail would be able to get created correctly at 500px x 500px.”

However im having some issues. My masonry seems to be taking the width into consideration, however not the height. I have uploaded an image with dimentions 1500×1000 approximate. I want it to fit as wide and tall, (1000px x 1000px) however it maintains the ratio that i set for it, and does not crop.

Hey, please share your UR in regards so I can take a look at the page

Cheers

Hey – instead of setting a custom thumbnail (which doesn’t crop anything) set an actual featured image for the project

Hi, how would i add Vimeo to the social buttons? I added the option to nectar-addons.php which now shows up however no icon shows. Where is the icon coming from, it’s Font-Awesome right? If so, how do i make the Vimeo icon show up? Thanks

Hey,

Where are you trying to add it – it should already be available in the footer/header social. If you’re trying to add it to the nectar page builder element, you’d also need to add it into the nectar_social_buttons function in the nectar/tinymce/shortcode-processing.php file

Cheers

Hi. Can you tell me how you did the SVG animation?

Hey, it’s when you select the new icon font family (linea) in your icon shortcode you’ll have new options for animation :)

Cheers

This question was meant technically. How are the SVGs animated? It seems to be embedded in the code, but where does the animation come from?

Hey, you can animate svg dashstrokes/offsets https://css-tricks.com/svg-line-animation-works/

Hi, a client of mine has uses your theme. They use a video background in a few pages. This however, takes up so much bandwidth. Is it possible to have a video background from an external source (e.g. YouTube, Vimeo etc)?

Hey – not as an actual BG yet but the feature is on the wishlist

Cheers

In the latest version with the Off Canvas Menu, where do I assign the font size for the page name and how do I get that short text below the page name to show up like in your demo site? You Also have it so that when a button is clicked it opens up sub pages but in a new left scroll. Also, is there a way to make the rectangle buttons in the Nectar slider to be the oval shaped type? In addition, why does Visual Composer (Salient Version) just have these tiny boxes of screen captures from the prior Visual Composer, which I can hardly read? Will this be fixed? It’s very small and not user friendly. Thank you. -Aviad

I’ll open a ticket in regards to the nav buttons not all showing up on the iPhone. It’s a big issue.

Thanks, let me know the ticket ID once you’ve done so

Ticket 582465 (Please review – important) Thank you!

Hello, when I visit your demo page http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-frostwave/about-me/ how do you make the header area slide down upon screen load. (I’m not talking about the sticky navigation bar)... when I visit the page the picture with the girl opens down. Can you explain how I set this configuration within your theme? Thank you

Hey – as of now that only occurs when a page header height is not set, but more control over that is on the way

Vertical Tabs would be much appreciated!

They’ll be included in the next update :)

Not all of the Font Awesome icons are available to the theme, specifically in the “Text With Icons”—any way to have the full set available for that?

Hey, I’ve noted to update the version in the next update

Cheers

Thanks!

You’re welcome :)

Hi, I am trying to make the header on my events page not transparent. This is not an actual “page” per say, but a location created by an events calendar I am using. www.vineyardattheriver/events/

anyway, I tried messing with the functions.php file per this string http://themeforest.net/item/salient-responsive-multipurpose-theme/4363266/comments?filter=all&term=the_verdict&utf8=%E2%9C%93

but when I did, it just crashed the site and I had to upload the unedited file back in to even access the site. I literally copied verbatim, replacing with “events” where the project is, and all it does it crash.

Any insight?

Hey, there’s an option in your page header settings metabox available on every edit page screen to disable the transparent header

Hello, i purchased the Salient Theme, all dummy files work fine, but AGENCY doesn’t allow to change the home slider images. Ive tried in several servers and reinstalling wordpress from scratch, no luck. The bug must be in the Agency dummy-data.xml or there is a missing step in tutorials and documentation needed for Agency. Please help me, the selling point for me was that box roll header and I can’t make it work.. thank you for your time.

client site: www.tmindstudios.com

test site: http://www.sanantonioestudio.com/tmindstudios.com/en/

Hey,

On your URL http://www.sanantonioestudio.com/tmindstudios.com/en/ it seems you’re using a Nectar Slider which is managed from the Nectar Slider tab in your admin panel, not the Home Slider. However if you’re trying to create the box roll effect, you’ll need to use the page header instead of a Nectar Slider since the effect is only available there as of now

Cheers

Thank you for your response, that is a test site which shows that the home slider works fine with other dummy-data files.

As you can see in the site we are building:: www.tmindstudios.com, the home slider does NOT work, it´s not possible to change the images. Please take a closer look. We bought this product in order to use the AGENCY salient template and we really need your assistance in making it work. We have tried in different servers and several times, there must be something wrong with the dummy-data.xml for AGENCY or a missing step in order to activate the HOME box roll slider.

If you need to acces the wordpress:

email me for the password: jm@sanantonioestudio.com

We have a ticket with Nectar Themes: #573606, Still no response

The agency demo does not use a Nectar or Home slider at the top, the box roll effect is an option on the page header available to edit at the bottom of your edit page screen: http://i.imgur.com/vFwUIjd.png You can add an image, video or configure a particle setup from there. If you would like me to log in and add a test image for you I would be more than happy to

Cheers

Nectar,

I don’t see any comments regarding the status of websites, when viewing from a Windows 10 based machine (regardless of browser). However, we are experiencing several issues. Ticket #573547 has been submitted for your review. Any help would greatly be appreciated!

Thanks, Bobby

Hey,

I’ll take a look at your ticket as soon as I can in regards

Cheers

Since we did an update of the theme (to 5.5.53) the gallery spider line/box is missing on any new projet we add. how to fix it ?

Hey,

That option was removed since it is now obsolete – the image gallery element in the page builder offers the same display as that plus a ton of other options and the flexibility to move it where you need in the page rather than being forced to keep it at the top.

Cheers

so simple is the solution that we didin’t notice :) thank you for your quick answer.

No worries

Cheers!
