Hi,

My pagination has stopped working on this page – http://www.nase.org.uk

I have tried updating the theme and it does work again after updating but I lose a lot of important css styling on the rest of the site.

Please advise.

Thanks,

Rory

Hey,

Unfortunately the pagination not working on front assigned pages is a core bug https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/35344 and will be fixed in the next release

I have a page at http://casala.org/volunteer/ that supposively crashes IE 11. Any Ideas?

I should add that this appears to have something to do with the embedded Vimeo video.. Thanks!

Hey,

I’ll need to investigate more with that since there’s no errors appearing in the browser console – have you tried alternatives such as the video lightbox element (available in v7.0+) to see if it helps?

Cheers

Hola! Tengo problemas con el Dummy Data, tengo el tutorial y sé cómo se instala, pero no tengo el archivo ¿cómo puedo obtener el archivo? Gracias!

Hey, the current version of Salient allows you import the demos from the theme options panel – there’s a section for demo importer :)

In the tabbed section when I setup the Gallery in the Nectar slide setting the whole tabbed section becomes blank when the page loads. Is there a way you can solve this? Any other style for the gallery works but the nectar one which I want. If I place a video next to it in a 1/2+1/2 row it works.. I Don’t get why is it doing it.

Also the touch enabled grid style doesn’t load properly just as a thin line pictures..

Hey,

1. Using javascript based elements inside of tabs sometimes yields problems, could you please share the URL in regards?

2. Are you supplying an image size for the grid and supplying more than 3 images?

hey I’m using the ecommerce version of salient, and on my product pages, under my product there is a button that says “buy it now”. At the moment this button is dud as there is no link attached to it. I want this button to have the same effect as the “add to cart” button. How do I do this ?

Hey – you can use the Envato toolkit plugin and all of your data / theme options will remain after updating https://premium.wpmudev.org/blog/how-to-update-themeforest-themes-with-the-envato-wordpress-toolkit/

So i created a child theme, and tried to update the theme using Envato toolkit plugin. Now it says that the “Salient” theme is installed but incomplete, and the stylesheet is missing. When I click on visit site, my website does not show up. Please help

Weird, try simply downloading the theme from ThemeForest again and uploading the salient.zip from appearance > themes in your admin panel. You’ll need to switch to any other theme in order to first delete the current copy of Salient you have before uploading the new

Hello!

I just built another website with your theme and I am having just a couple of problems. I want to make it so that the map never scrolls – both on desktop and on mobile.

I added a line of code in the Extra Class Name that says: “draggable: false;” – but that doesn’t seem to do the trick. Again, I want the map to be non draggable or zoomable on both desktop, tablet and mobile.

Lastly, on my portfolio, I am not getting the ability to have my images simply pop up like they do in the demo. I have a simple 4 column two row portfolio in a section of my theme, but when I click a picture it does this bizarre thing where it pulls up another window with a thumbnail of the image I wanted to view, and a large black, blank image. I simply want the image to expand and have the ability to click through the portfolio in the order they are listed on the layout, the same way they expand in the demo.

I’m currently hosting my site at a temporary domain until I solve these issues and can go live. Here is the domain: http://5bb.231.myftpupload.com

Can you please help with these two different cases so I can finish the project?

Thanks in advance! I look forward to hearing from you.

Have you ensured that you have a featured image set for these items and not just a custom thumbnail?

Ah!! I’m an idiot. That solved the problem :)

Thanks so much for providing me with awesome support. Truly the reason I keep coming back to this theme.

Cheers!

No worries :)

Hi, congratulations for your work!

I have a question, is the latest version of the theme compatible with Ubermenu? Can we use the guide of versione 6 ( http://sevenspark.com/docs/ubermenu-3/theme-integration/salient ) to edite header.php ?

Thanks for your help!

Hey,

The file has changed a little in that section, but the guide is still mostly accurate :)

Cheers

Feature Request: Additionally VC header/slogan options.

Lots of the demo text seems to use basic text blocks styled inside the text block elements itself using span class. I feel like we’re pretty limited in this are and usually default to installing “Ultimate Addons for Visual Composer” for this.

I’d be nice to get header/slogan option (title + subtitle) where we can define the position (left/right/center), set the h tag (i.e h2 or h3), choose to have a divider line and set the placement of subtitle/divider line (above or below title).

Love the theme. Keep up the good work!

Hey,

thanks for the request :)

Cheers

Hi, could you tell me how to make the floaty 3d look of the portfolio at the bottom of the corporate demo page? http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-corporate/

And also, after you click one of the projects, the page loads itself with a spreading animation, how can I do that? like this page: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-corporate/portfolio/the-bike-project/

Hey,

1. It’s the new portfolio style available in visual composer called 3D parallax

2. In the page transitions tab of your options panel select the center mask reveal transition

Do you have video tutorial updates for 7? For example for the image gallery element instead of the checkbox from the early salient versions?

Hey, tutorials are on the way – but in regards to what you said, the image gallery element would indeed be the way to create a gallery now in VC instead of using the checkbox. The style the old gallery used was “Basic Slider Style”

I am utilizing a one page scroll site for a client that requested it, however since we have a blog section on the one page scroll site with “read more” options for the blog posts to be viewed in full, when they are clicked on it goes to a separate page created for the blog post itself. This is all fine, however on the new blog page the header is then broken, because it utilizes anchor links (#blog) that no longer exist on this new page so none of the navigation links will actually take the viewer back to the correct link.

In theory, if I made the navigation link to www.mysite.com/#blog instead of the link just being #blog it would work on any page, but I tried that and it breaks the sliding motion and causes other loading issues because now it is reloading the site when these are clicked instead of just sliding down to the anchor point.

How can I keep the nice slide motion on the home page when clicking the nav, but ensure that on any other pages (such as blog posts) the navigation doesn’t break entirely?

You can see the site at gentry.checkoutyour.com to see what I am talking about.

Hey,

Using the full URL is indeed the recommended solution and shouldn’t break the functionality – could you please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can take a look? https://themenectar.ticksy.com and please let me know the ticket ID here after doing so

Cheers

Hi there!

For this website: http://bit.ly/1nAoiki

I am trying to control the nectar slider font in 13in screen sizes. The CSS I used is:

@media screen (min-width: 1000px) and (min-width: 1300px) { .nectar-slider-wrap[data-full-width=”false”] .swiper-slide .content h2 { font-size: 50px !important; line-height: 65px !important; }

boxed .nectar-slider-wrap[data-full-width=”false”] .swiper-slide .content h2 {

font-size: 50px !important; line-height: 65px !important; } }

It does not register. Any ideas?

Hey,

Try and use this:

@media only screen and (max-width: 1300px) and (min-width: 1000px) {
body .nectar-slider-wrap[data-full-width="false"] .swiper-slide .content h2, body #boxed .nectar-slider-wrap[data-full-width="false"] .swiper-slide .content h2 {
    font-size: 50px!important;
}
}

Cheers

You guys are the BEST! Thank you!!!

You’re welcome :)

Greetings! Two things:

1. I think this is a CSS bug: a 6 column row with full width content, centered content alignment and column padding doesn’t collapse nicely for < 690px screen width. See e.g. row below page header: http://d7d.be3.myftpupload.com/content/news/

2. Is there an easy way to have ‘blog_next_post_link’ only linking to the next post in the same category?

Hey,

1. Add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:

@media only screen and (max-width: 690px) {
body .vc_row-fluid .vc_col-sm-2[class*="vc_col-sm-"] {
    margin-left: 0!important;
} 
}

2. Unfortunately not as of now without custom development i’m afraid

Cheers

Thanks for that. As always: great support, amazing theme, happy customer!

You’re welcome :)

Hi, I bought your template and wanted to make a ‘blocked’ fullscreen layout like you do in your Agency preview. The thing is though… my text doesn’t scale, so on smaller screens the blocks shift around and it looks bad. Can you help me with this? Thanks.

Hey,

Please share your URL in regards so I can see this and help out

Cheers

Hey,

I already figured it out. The only way to make those ‘picture blocks’ truly responsive is when you set them as a column background. This doesn’t work with sliders/etc however. You made one badass theme, but figuring out how to get exactly what you want takes some time… but it’s still a million times quicker than coding everything yourself haha.

And I just used media rules in the custom css to get around the text not scaling properly, so I’m all set.

Thanks for your reply!

Cheers

Hey, glad you got it sorted how you wanted it :)

How would I go about removing the header section with the logo and menu?

Hey – I’m not seeing the issue occur at the moment, assuming you removed it could you please open a private ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can reapply it and see what’s going on? themenectar.ticksy.com/

Cheers

I opened a ticket yesterday but no reply yet. Thanks

Could you let me know the ticket ID?

Cheers

Does your theme use Visual composer front end?

Hey, it doesn’t by default – if you wanted to use it you’d have to use the raw plugin

Cheers

So I made the update to WooCommerce 2.5 without noticing that you only support up to 2.4. My product pages are pretty screwed up now, just wondering if making a compatible version to 2.5 is coming in the near future for Salient theme purchasers?

I have since reverted back to 2.4.13 for WooCommerce and I still can’t link my product page to my main shop page. Can I get some assistance with this? I’m lost on this one and could really use some help from an expert.

Hey, the update for WooCommerce compatibility will be out later – I’m confused by out outstanding issue, could you share a URL so I can see it occurring?

Cheers

Hi There,

I want you to send me the contact form code you are using on this page http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-corporate/contact/

I tried importing the demo, but the contact form code that has been imported is a very simple and it doesnt look like the one in the demo.

The form styling is already set to minimal, please send me the contact form code.

Thanks, Ganesh

Hi there, would you please reply

Hey, the code is:

<div class="row">
<div class="col span_4">
<label for="your-name">Name</label>
    [text* your-name] 
</div>
<div class="col span_4">
<label for="your-email">Email</label>
    [email* your-email] 
</div>
<div class="col span_4">
<label for="your-subject">Subject</label>
     [text your-subject] 
</div>
</div>

<label for="your-message">Message</label>
    [textarea your-message] 
<p><br />[submit "Send Message"]</p>

Cheers

Was wondering how to get a drop cap in a post as shown at the start of the Salient Corporate Theme post: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-corporate/2013/03/the-field/

Hey, there’s now a drop cap shortcode available in the nectar shortcode generator
