Hello, before I buy this awesome theme I would like to know if I can put a video as project thumbnail using masonry style portfolio. Thank you
Hey, as of now this would require some custom development unfortunately. You can link the thumbnail to a video, but the thumbnail itself can’t be set as a video
Cheers
Hey, you guys have an awesome theme! I bought one for my main site and love it. I have a website design and marketing company and would like to use this theme for some of my future clients. Do you guys offer a developers option for multiple implementation or some sort of discount when X amount of licenses are bought by a single user? If you can get back to me as soon as possible that would be great, already have 2 clients lined up!
Hey!
Unfortunately I don’t have direct control over how Envato treats scenarios like this. However as far as I know there are no discounts for multiple purchases http://themeforest.net/licenses/faq#multi-a

Hello. I am WordPress Developer, a client ask me to fix his website .. he is using your theme, and found the problem.. the problem is in “init.js” file you are writing one of the selectors in this way $(this).is(‘[href=#]’) and this cause an error and this error stopping the execution of the remain js code So, the solution is to write it in this way $(this).is(‘[href=”#”]’) and this also $(this).is(‘[data-hover-bg=#]’) need to be corrected to $(this).is(‘[data-hover-bg=”#”]’)
here is the code snippet, because this comment box reformatting the text http://pastebin.com/EWhgSkv2I hope this will help you. Regards
Hey, thanks for mentioning

Hello, i came here because visual composer doesn’t work. I read your post above, you said i need Version: 7.0.8, but it says in the theme info in WP that i have Version: 7.0.6. How is it that it’s not updating?
Hey – which method have you used to update? Did you try updating via FTP after downloading the new theme from here or did you use the Envato toolkit plugin? http://code.tutsplus.com/tutorials/toolbox-of-the-smart-wordpress-developer-the-envato-wordpress-toolkit--cms-23883
Cheers
Visual composer UNABLE TO UPDATE urgent.
After update. I get a reminder to update my Visual composer. when attempting to update I get this message: “To receive automatic updates license activation is required. Please visit Settings to activate your Visual Composer.” When i click on setting it says “You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.”
I am unable to edit site, need help URGENTLY. appreciated.
SOLUTION: For anyone experiencing similar issues follow this: There’s a note inside of the theme download which explains this “If you were using the Salient Visual Composer plugin version 4.9.2 before updating, you’ll need to delete the plugin from your plugins section in the WordPress admin panel before installing the current version (4.10) in Appearance > Install Plugins – This is necessary due to a bug in the Salient VC 4.9.2 which prevents regular updating.”
Hey – i’m glad you sorted it out, and yes unfortunately 4.9.2 does require that extra step.
Cheers!
Howdy,
After researching it seems there is a “mega menu” already included. Is it just a generic version of Ubermenu’s mega menu or is that exact plugin integrated into salient? I’m asking because I’m trying to recreate some of the features that the Uber Mega Menu has like having 4 columns in the menu, but the 4th column is an image or html. http://prntscr.com/asrvoc
Is this possible? If so, how? Also, I’ve been building w wordpress for 5+ years and you’re support right here in the comments is the best I’ve ever seen. Pple hate opening tickets in another website you have to log into.. bleh
Hey, the mega menu in Salient is not ubermenu, it’s just a basic mega menu that allows control over columns but doesn’t provide the option for a BG image as of now:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IZPPUTbvTKQThis would require some css – if you could share your URL i’d be glad to write an example 
Updated to WP 4.5, Salient 7.0.8, and SVC 4.11.12. Disabled all plugins (only have two). Still can’t get Nectar Slider to work. Brownser has one error: “Uncaught TypeError: Modernizr.prefixed is not a function.” My support is expired. Perfect timing, now I guess I’m screwed.
Apologies, I figured it out and made it work. The WP 4.5 definitely broke the Nectar slider, but all seems well now. Thanks!
Hey – i’m glad you sorted it out 
Cheers
Im having problems with video’s resizing in the slider on the home page. Take a look http://www.wordpressmalwareremoval.net you can see the video is small. I have sent this item to support with no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciate.
Hey,
Try adding this into the init.js file located in the js folder
$(window).load(function(){
$(window).trigger('resize');
});
directly after this line:
jQuery(document).ready(function($){
Cheers
Hey guys!
For everyone who hasn’t seen the announcements,
In regards to WordPress 4.5
The only version of Salient that is compatible with the latest WP is Salient 7.0.8, and the only version of Salient Visual Composer that is compatible with WP 4.5 is 4.11.2. If you’re using older versions of these and have updated to WP 4.5, your visual composer will not work.
Once you’ve updated Salient, head to the plugins section of your admin panel to update Visual Composer. If you’re having issues after using both the current versions, check for third party plugin issues – WP 4.5 added a new version of jQuery and a lot of plugins broke because of it.
Cheers
never experienced such a poor and non pro active support, after 15 mails, 15 days waiting endlessly for a solution, i got an answer that my problem (infinitescroll on portfolio) is not covered !!
really disappointed.
Hey, i’m sorry you’ve been experiencing an issue with the infinite scroll – could you please share your ticket ID so I can overlook what’s going on?
Cheers
sure.. 735526, 714136, 681130, 693949…
Hey – it seems the admin credentials provided earlier in your ticket are no longer working. Could you kindly provide new ones which are valid?
Cheers
done in ticket 735526. thanks
Hey – I just responded 
In Salient Ascend theme how to show Pagination arrows/dots in mobile device? right now I don’t see any thing.
Hey, kindly share your URL in regards
May have found a bug. When I use a Video Lightbox element, it works great on a desktop computer but the Lightbox pop-up on mobile has warped dimensions.
Hey, I can’t seem to replicate this on the demo – could you share the URL in regards so I can see your settings?
Cheers
Thanks
Hey, try switching the theme lightbox to magnific in your Salient options panel > General settings > functionality
Hi, I’d really love to use the header style you use on your corporate demo (http://themeforest.net/item/salient-responsive-multipurpose-theme/full_screen_preview/4363266) on a portfolio page. What I love about it is being able to have the lightbox play icon within that full header.
I’ve made it work on a normal page but can’t seem to do it on a portfolio page. Is there an option to do this? I haven’t had any luck in finding one…
Thanks!
Hey,
As of now this wouldn’t be possible unless you used css to hide the project header and used the video lightbox button in the first row of your page builder. If that’s something you’re interested, kindly share your URL so I can provide example css 
Cheers
Of course. Here’s the page I’m wanting to modify: http://staging.thestoryis.com/portfolio/reflections/
I was able to create the look I want using a standard page (http://staging.thestoryis.com/case-study/) , but I’m hoping I can do the same thing with the portfolio.
Thanks again!
Hey, on the page set a page header background color (just to trigger the transparent nav) and then add this into the custom css box:
body #page-header-wrap {
display: none!important;
}
That did the trick. Thanks for the help!
You’re welcome 
Thanks for the updates and pointers for getting VC working with the new WP version.
Hey, you’re very welcome 
Cheers!
Does the parallax background option not work with testimonials? Or am I screwing something up?
Hey – could you kindly share your URL showing the issue so I can see your setup?
Sure thing- it’s on the home page and the about us page. Same problem on both. www.pulsrmedia.com Thanks!
hey, that’s strange! Could you please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can take a look at what’s going on
themenectar.ticksy.com/ also let me know the ticket ID here once you’ve done so
Cheers
Thanks! Private Ticket #738325
Hey! Just responded 
Cheers
Where is the checkbox for Remember me? http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-ecommerce/my-account/
Hey – that’s an issue with the fancy form style option, without it it should show up normally. http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-frostwave/my-account/ This will be fixed in the next update due out shortly
Cheers
Feature Request: Improved Call To Action: Instead of having a global call to action, would be nice to have a call to action shortcode where I can set custom options for it where its set. This is useful when a web site has various services on offer and you want a CtA with wording specific to that service/product.
Hey – thanks for the additional request, it’s also been noted 
Hi there. Firstly, thanks for a great theme! I was completely new to wordpress when I started using this theme, it’s really nicely laid out and brilliant fun to work with. The site looks great too!
Just one problem, I’m trying to use the gallery element in the page builder but I can’t add more than one image too it. In the ‘add images’ window, I can select multiple images but when I press the ‘add images’ button, the all the selected images deselect and nothing is added to the gallery.
Thanks again for a great theme!
Hey, glad to hear you’re enjoying it! 
could you please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can take a look at what’s going on

Feature Request: Improved Icon Search. Currently you have search available on the icon drop down list, but its like so “keyword%”. Could you please rather make this “ keyword ”? For example, searching for “cog” returns no results, because I havent entered “icon-cog”. Using the ‘double wildcard’ method described would also let me see all “cog” results for “icon”/”steadysets-icon” and “lineicon” sets which makes it a lot more useful when I’m looking for an icon that represents something.
Hey,
Thanks for the request – i’ve noted it on the wishlist 
Cheers
would i be able to add a shortcode to the header area? i want to display a count down timer here for an event.
Hey, this would need to be added into the header.php file (in a child theme if desired) like so:
<?php echo do_shortcode('[shortcode_here]');?>
Cheers
