When will the update?

Hey,

another minor release will be out in a day or so

Cheers

Cheers =) Look forward to) There will be a fixed bug with a gradient on the background image in the articles?

Hi! Where can I find instructions for adding a widget to the secondary header? I’m trying to add accessibility controls.

Thanks!

Hey! As of now there’s no option by default to add a widget into the secondary header area – however if you use the off canvas navigation you can then add widgets to that area in the standard Appearance > widgets section of your admin panel

Thanks! Do you guys quote for that custom work if I can’t find any other suitable solution than to add one to secondary header?

Unfortunately I’m unavailable for freelance work but Envato studio should be able to take care of it :)

Hi Guys,

Is it possible to have the video light box come from a text link instead of a play button or nectar button?

Thanks

Hey – you could use css to make it appear like normal text
body .nectar_video_lightbox.nectar-button[data-color="default-accent-color"] {
  background-color: transparent!important;
  letter-spacing: 0!important;
  font-size: 14px!important;
  padding:0!important;
}

Excellent, thanks!

You’re welcome :)

Hello, I’m trying to add some icons in a page and when I click on the shortcodes and choose icons, the dialog comes up, but every single icon image is blank on that dialog box with just numerical numbers on the little boxes. How can I get the icon dialog box to display the examples of what the icons look like? As you can imagine, it’s pretty worthless if I can’t tell what any of the icons actually look like!

Thanks – what’s the ticket ID?

Private Ticket #671840

Could you kindly double check the credentials listed on the ticket?

Hi, could you please tell me how to change font for Fancy Unordered List? Font in my list always shows with same Font Family but different Font Style & Weight. I did reset all the fonts in Typography panel. Regards. Kris

Hey,

It should be inheriting everything from the body font – could you please share your URL in regards so I can see if there’s anything else changing the style on your setup?

Cheers

Hello, I have a problem updating the theme!

I deleted the old one (version 2.3) and now I’ve uploaded the theme via FTP (Filezilla) but it seems it’s broken (blank page)!

can you help me ?

thanks, Fabio

You’re using the custom thumbnail option which does not crop any aspect ratio – if you’re not supplying the same aspect ratio for all it would be better to use the featured image which auto crops to the same ratio regardless of what you upload

Cheers

Oh yes thank you very much! there is no space between the projects and the image Parallax, do you know a way to create some space between them?

thanks in advance

Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:

div#portfolio {
    padding-top: 30px;
}

Hi,

bought your theme. Setting it up right now. A joy to work with. Can you help me on this one:

How to get the “blog masonry with side bar”to appear like this on the blog page and as an element on the homepage?

http://www.foxsports.nl

I mean…

show: picture title

don’t show: heart posted by text date border/line

All the best, Alex

Hey!

Add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel

article.post .content-inner {
  border: none!important;
}
#post-area.masonry article.post .post-meta {
  display: none!important;
}

Cheers

Hmm. it doesn’t do anything ;-( Can I give you an admin logon later this week to try it your self? best, Alex

That’s fine just open a ticket in regards at themenectar.ticksy.com/ and provide the ticket ID here once you’ve done so

Cheers

Is there a way to add a privacy policy and a terms of service link to the footer of the theme. I tried to add both tags on the box available in the options of the theme but it only works for one. Let me know.

Hey,

make sure you’re using single quotes for the href attr instead of the usual double quotes

Cheers

@ThemeNectar – What about markups.. see question below: I have some microdata markup code I got from Google Markup but cannot find a place on the theme to add so I can optimize my pages. Can you please advise where I would put this code or what my options are? THANKS!

Hey! You’d actually need a plugin for this – but there are a bunch of free ones to choose from

Cheers

Hi there, is the menu used in Agency demo included ? Or you need a 3rd party plugin for that ?

Hey,

that’s a built in theme option

Cheers

I downloaded and installed 7.0.6 clean, and it seems the backend for header navigation is way different than in the older releases. Is this right? For example, in the backend, I no longer see that I can pick a two-column header or three-column header. The option isn’t even there.

Separately, my logo doesn’t show up starting out on the website. A person has to scroll down a bit for it to suddenly appear in the header. Any idea? Thanks!

Hey,

1. The options panel now has tabs diving the different core sections for better organization, you can find that in this tab http://i.imgur.com/GbYqdpp.png

2. Please try to reupload the logo into the transparency section of your options panel

Cheers

Hi ThemeNectar, I’d like to use the “Title overlaid w/ zoom effect on hover” effect from the Portofolio page style onto the Full width Masonry Blog posts, how can I achieve this effect? Thanks!

Hey,

Unfortunately that’s not possible as of now, the closest you could come would be to use the masonry meta overlaid blog post style http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-agency/blog-masonry-fullwidth/

Cheers

Looks like Salient isn’t playing nicely with the “Nav Menu Roles” plugin. When installing and trying to use Nav Menu Roles (we install this a lot) it generates the following error message:

Nav Menu Roles has detected a possible conflict in the following locations: /themes/salient/nectar/assets/functions/wp-menu-custom-items/menu-item-custom-fields.php on line 43. Please direct the author of the conflicting theme or plugin to the FAQ for a solution.

Hey,

I’ve noted to look into it for the next release

Cheers

?Hey There,

Have a quick question, I updated to v7.0.6 today. I also updated VC. When the update was completed, all of our theme customizations are gone. I figured no big deal, we’ll just re-enter the settings, however, the “Salient” menu item is no longer displaying in the WP backend. So we really can’t do anything with the theme.

Thanks again for your help on this issue!

Hey – could you please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can see why that would be? themenectar.ticksy.com/ please let me know your ticket ID here after opening one so I can look into it

Cheers

Hello, I use the old version of Silent, now with this new layout I would love to change my whole page. Can you explain me how do I switch to the new layout? I have access to uploads right? No need to buy again the theme? Its I just change the layout without losing my portfolio of pages already made?

Hey,

There’s no need to buy the theme again – once you update the new options will become available within the theme. Your old content will remain and using any new features that you desire it all up to you :)

Cheers

Quick question. On the Nectar Slider I would like to set the target of one of the button links to open in a new tab (i.e. “_blank”).

How can I do this just for one button on one slide?

Hey,

Yes – in the slide class use “external-button-1” or “external-button-2”

Cheers

Hi – VC / Salient does not seem to support copy and pasting tables from excel into the visual editor. Anything I’m missing or was this feature removed? Thanks

Hey,

There’s nothing modded into the Salient VC that would prevent this differently from the regular VC – have you tried checking with WPBakery?

Cheers

How can increase font size and spacing between rows in the menu in mobile view?
Thanks!

Use this in custom css box:

@media only screen and (max-width: 690px) {
#slide-out-widget-area .inner .off-canvas-menu-container li a {
    font-size: 20px!important;
    line-height: 20px!important;
}
}

Thanks, that helped. However…. :-)

I now realize that I want to increase the vertical spacing between each list item. When I have list items that has a line break, all items blend together.

Thanks a lot!

Add this in as well :)

@media only screen and (max-width: 690px) {
#slide-out-widget-area .inner .off-canvas-menu-container li a {
    margin-bottom: 15px;
}
}

Hi, can you please help me, how to add upload button on contact form page. Thanks in advance.

Hey – what contact form plugin are you using?

Cheers

Thanks for the response. it’s contact form 7. We’re looking to add an upload button which falls under the salient theme. Also shows the selected files list. Please help thanks.

Hey – CF7 offers a basic file upload field http://contactform7.com/file-uploading-and-attachment/ – if that’s not working for you please share your URL in regards so I can take a look

Thank you for your great theme!

But I have a question: In the “Home Recents posts” template (template-home-2.php), how can I remove the author, category and comment titles?

I tried to use css: .blog-recent .post-header a:not(:first-child) {display: none !important;} but the ” | ” are still showing.

Is there a better solution?

Thank you

Hey!

Instead of using the home recent posts template – just use the slider only one and add the recent posts in via visual composer – then use this css

.meta-category, .meta-author, .meta-comment-count {
  display: none!important;
}

Cheers

Hi there!

The fix for the menu you gave us on Ticket #664965 (website URL is there) seems to have worked, but I’m noticing that sometimes the logo/menu flashes really quick on first page load or when switching back to the first Particles slide manually using the side bullets. I’m not sure if it’s a bug or if it might have to do with the CSS you gave us to fix the issue, but I wanted to let you know.

Thanks again!

Hey!

Unfortunately I haven’t seen this occur yet but the css I supplied you wouldn’t have caused that so it might be something else – what browser are you seeing it on?

Cheers
