Hello is there any way to add different background colors to boxed columns ?
Hey,
it would require custom css – easiest way would be to add a class name onto the column to target it specifically
Cheers
?Can you provide an updated version of the documentation? The included user guide document is obviously out of date by a few versions and provides out of date & incorrect or insufficient instructions in numerous places. The youtube videos are for version 1.6 or 2.0 and Salient is now on version 7. Thank you.
Hey there,
new videos will be available shortly – not all of them are that old though, just the first ones I released are. Please let me know if you have any specific questions I can assist with in the mean time 
Hey, great theme but I have bunch of problems with the newest updates.
Font awesome icons are no longer being loaded through the shortcode. Just a bunch of boxes with unavailable fonts.
Also, the Masonry layout just doesn’t work at all. I’ll get an error in the dev panel saying “no layout mode: packery” if I select anything other than the new 3D parallax on hover, and when I do select that, it’s not inheriting the masonry size from the portfolio; I’m essentially just getting the normal fixed grid layout. It’s not even giving me a black box, it’s just a completely blank page.
Partially resolved, turns out it was another plugin interfering with the masonry layout for some reason. Although the font awesome icons are still not loading properly
Hey,
the font awesome issue will be solved in tomorrows update 
Cheers
Oh great, thanks for the quick response.
Just another issue I encountered (although I was able to quickly fix it by changing the display back to inline block), the custom sort portfolio text that’s entered through the theme options will only display if you select default when creating a portfolio instance. If you select any of the other colors, the item’s display will be set to “none”. I’m not sure if that’s how it’s meant to function, but Id be surprised if it was built to only display that text descriptor when using the default color.
Hey, thanks for noting this as well 
Which Zoom magnifying effect are you using in the e-commerce template? Please explain how to implement. Will a third party zoom effect work? Thanks
Hey,
In the WooCommerce tab of the options panel select the “Gallery slider with zoom on Hover” for the “Single Product Gallery Type” option
Cheers
Great, that was easy. Thanks
You’re welcome 
Hey!
Is there any way of making the custom content portfolio thumbnails entirely clickable like the rest of the portfolios?
Cheers!

And additionally – I have the following portfolio setting – titles overlaid with zoom effect on hover. Do you have a snippet of code that would put a slight black overlay to the images so the text is more legible. Much like the masonry blog layout has?
Hey,
1. As of now unfortunately no
2. On that project style there should already be a slight overlay that disappears on hover, are you simply trying to keep it around once hovering?
Cheers
is there a way to identify images that are no longer being uses and remove them?
Hey, this doesn’t have much to do with Salient specifically but there’s a plugin mentioned in this article that might be what you’re after https://premium.wpmudev.org/blog/clean-up-optimize-wordpress/
Hi there, I fell in love with the slider video of this demo – http://themenectar.com/demo/salient/home-portfolio-eye-candy/ . Is it possible to get this video/image ?

Any body having and issues changing the Custom CSS Code within the Salient General Settting tab?? I’ve insured both the theme and visual composer are fully up-to-date and still not allowing me to alter the code I had in there already (prior to Salient 7)

Hi ! Is it possible to disable comments on blog posts ? Thanks
Hello! I have a problem when I see my Salient website (www.phegraphic.com) in Ipad Mini. The images of the portfolio internal pages are shown small!!. I forced by CSS to be width 100% and the problem seem to be that Salient put the small mobile version of the images wrongly.
Thaaaanks. s/ A Salient Fan.
Hey,
Could you please provide a screenshot showing the size you’re talking about since upon first look I’m not noticing anything out of order
Cheers
Hello!. I put a “screenshot” of the Ipad mini problem here: http://phegraphic.com/image-size-error/
Thanks
Hey – try adding this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
#portfolio-extra .row .col img {
max-width: none!important;
width: 100%!important;
}
Thank you but it isnt the solution. Of course I tried this before and the image pixelates. The problem is in the “srcset” label. It choose the mobile image version wrongly in ipad mini.
When I delete the “srcset” label works well
Are you using a plugin for retina mobile images?
Hello, I definitly discover the solution. The class=”wp-image-2280” that Wordpress add automatically when you insert an image is the class that adds the labels “srcset” and “sizes”.
I have to edit all the images of my web but the bye bye to the problem.
Thanks 4 the support.

Hi, I am facing two problems. 1) Trying to put a section on my home page to look like mega standard (Top benefits section). it is not displaying properly. 2) Last section on my page is a callout section, which is not showing in the preview.
I added all the screenshots in google drive, for you to how a look, Link is below – https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B1NZMYlnS1DDc2xjX3EyMjBuNms&usp=sharingKindly help, Its urgent.
Hey, are you sure you’re referring to the Salient theme? That isn’t the UI of the page builder
Sorry, this is for Mega theme. Posting there again
No worries
I’ve got a 4 column footer, is there anyway I can make the second column blank and just take up the space that the column normally would?
Hey, add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
#footer-widgets .row > div:nth-child(2) {
display: none!important;
}
Hi. I’m wondering if there is any way to change the next project and previous project text – I’m using for accommodation instead of portfolio – so the word project isn’t relevant. Many thanks
Hey! Yes, you could translate via the .po file or modify the project_single_controls function in the functions.php
Cheers
Is it possible to add a header image to the blog pages?
Hey, yes – are you referring to the single post pages or the blog archives?
single pages and the blog archives. particularly, I need the homepage to show the blog entries and have a simple header. Can’t figure this out for the life of me.
Single blog posts have the page header meta box at the bottom when editing – to add a header for the home page, instead of setting the home page as your posts page in Settings > Reading, make it a static page which you’ll have a page header assigned to. Use a visual composer blog element on that static page to get the blog to display under it
Cheers
Is there a way to automatically add the same blog heading to individual blog topics?
It could be achieved with css – could you share your URL in regards so I could assist?
Hello ThemeNectar,
One of my client purchased your theme and I am working on maintenance part.
But when I open my client website in IE11 it shows only header part and other thinks blank. Can you please look into this and let me know what’s the issue.
Please check on IE8/9/10 it seems the salient theme not working on that also.
My client website – http://www.giftagram.com/
Thank you in advance.
Hello ThemeNectar,
Please reply ASAP. I need your help.
Thanks
Hey,
Kindly verify that no plugins you have active are causing this – if none are please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can take a look at what’s going on
themenectar.ticksy.com/
Cheers
Hi,
I have tried as you said like i have disabled plugin one by one but there is no change I can see in IE11. It stays the blank as I said earlier only header is showing other then blank.
Thanks
I’m seeing styles not from Salient being added in before the doctype declaration
<style>
#search_wrapper{
width:90%;
height:40px;
position:relative;
}
#search_field {
background-transparent;
height: 40px;
margin-left: 1px;
width: 412px;
}
::-webkit-input-placeholder {
color: #999;
font-family: Lato, sans-serif;
}
:-moz-placeholder {
color: #999;
font-family: Lato, sans-serif;
}
::-moz-placeholder {
color: #999;
font-family: Lato, sans-serif;
}
:-ms-input-placeholder {
color: #999;
font-family: Lato, sans-serif;
}
etc
If you didn’t add that, please add your admin credentials to the ticket so I can inspect everything further
this is custom we have added but this isn’t making issue. I will submit ticket and please check from ur side. But don’t make any changes.
There was an error appearing in the browser console inside IE relating to that css – either way it shouldn’t be included in the section that you have it, it should be inside of the head tag
Cheers
How can I make a Menu/nav Link NON-Clickable? I tried putting a # as a link ,but I don’t want it to be clickable at all. just one.
Hey,
If you share your URL and let me know the link you’re trying to accomplish this on I could provide the css
Cheers
I am trying to make the Service Tab non clickable.
Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
#menu-item-2672 a {
pointer-events: none;
}
The CSS code worked great, however the drop down menus under the Service tab stop working. I think it effected the other links as well. Any idea how we can fix? only for the service to be non clickable?
Hey, change it to this:
#menu-item-2672 > a {
pointer-events: none;
}
Hey ThemeNectar,
Got a couple questions:
1 – Can you provide me with the general CSS setting to change the Product text color in the Ajax Shopping Cart. I used a previous code you posted here
header-outer .widget_shopping_cart_content, #header-outer .widget_shopping_cart .cart_list li, #header-outer .cart-notification {
background-color: #FFFFFF; }
header-outer .widget_shopping_cart .cart_list li:hover {
background-color: #eee!important; }
header-outer .total, #header-outer .total strong {
color: #000!important; }
but the only thing that wont change is the product qty x Amount for example “1 x $25” – Ive tried to add this in to the general settings based on using the inspect tool for the area,
header-outer .widget_shopping_cart .quantity {
color: #fff }
But Im not really experienced in coding and this doesnt seem to work.
2 – In the shopping cart the Qty buttons are not on the same line. It has ” – 0” and then the ”+” is on a new line underneath. I havent changed any settings for this.
https://gyazo.com/b904546cdaa8e26da034b36f23c44909Thank you in advance.
Got it all sorted.
Glad to hear 
whats the possibility of having more than one image in the portfolio so that when you use the image only option you can scroll through them when the fancy box opens up?
Hey, unfortunately that would take some custom development as of now but it’s an item on the wishlist
I’m getting a continuous spinning when when loading. Also, I can’t write a support ticket because it keeps saying invalid URL.
Please share your URL here or send me an email if you can’t access https://themenectar.ticksy.com
Cheers
