I recently imported one of the Agency demos and on all the pages, a lot of the content is in script and not working – is there a way to fix this? Even reset it?

I somehow have sets of two of everything… (e.g. two home links, two page links, two portfolio links in my mega menu)

Reset mega menu, but still getting pages that are not working correctly (example of what shows up on a loaded page):

/vc_column_text/vc_row_innervc_column width=”1/6? width=”1/1? enable_animation=”true” animation=”fade-in” column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” delay=”500?][vc_column_text] True Power”

/vc_column_text/vc_row_innervc_column width=”1/6? width=”1/1? enable_animation=”true” animation=”fade-in” column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” delay=”1000?][vc_column_text] Icon Paradise”

There is probably a simple solution to fix this.

Hey, you need to install and activate the Salient Visual Composer plugin. You can do this in appearance > install plugins in your admin panel

There seams to be a bug when trying to utilize the TABs when trying to display items within the tabs.

On this blog post is an example of how a Wordpress gallery only works on the first tab but not on any following tabs. The same issue happens when using a “Blog Item” to display specific blog posts within a tab. The first tab works but the following tabs do not. This is a very important feature that I am trying to utilize and would appreciate help to resolve this bug. (This has been the case for a while, before this recent update)

Thanks!

Hey – this is occurring because the gallery you’re using is not a theme element but rather from a plugin. It could be fixed, but it would require javascript modding to the init.js file located in the js folder – find this line in the file:

$tabbedClickCount++;

and add this in directly after:

$(window).trigger('resize');

Cheers

Thank you – that does help the wordpress galleries work within tabs but it still doesn’t fix the issue with blog items which are a part of the theme. I setup a quick example of the issue here:

Thanks again.

Hey, thanks for clarifying – i’ve noted to add support for this in the next update

Cheers

Updating theme broke provided custom CSS and Visual Composer is not working either. Please help. How do I fix it?

If you’re upgrading from Salient VC 4.9.2, you’ll need to delete the plugin from your plugins section in the WordPress admin panel before installing the current version (4.11.2) in Appearance > Install Plugins – This is necessary due to a bug in the Salient VC 4.9.2 which prevents regular updating.

Thanks, that worked!

You’re welcome, glad to hear :)

Will there be a fix…or do we have to upgrade to 7.0.8. to resolve this issue? Please respond, we are down with WooCommerce Issues, and are loosing money at this point.

I have version 5.5.51 How do I upgrade? Can I purchase an install upgrade? Please advise.

Hey,

You can update by either downloading the theme again from here and uploading it to your WordPress setup via FTP or you could use the Envato Toolkit plugin to update from the WordPress admin dashboard http://code.tutsplus.com/tutorials/toolbox-of-the-smart-wordpress-developer-the-envato-wordpress-toolkit--cms-23883

Also, don’t forget once you’ve updated Salient you’ll need to head to the plugins section of your admin panel to update the Visual Composer plugin as well to ensure WP 4.5 compatibility.

Cheers

Why is it that when I updated your theme it gives me a:

Fatal error: Class ‘WPBakeryShortCode_VC_Row’ not found in /home/content/04/8372604/html/wp-content/themes/salient/nectar/nectar-vc-addons/nectar-addons.php on line 257

I have no problem updating my service, but doesnt seem fair to have to update to fix something that happened as a result of your updates. Someone please assist

Hey – have you tried to reupload your logo in all areas of the header > navigation tab? (Including the transparency tab)

I did. Cant explain what happened. Might have been a cookie thing. All is good. Thank you. I will try to reload the updated theme tonight back to the original problem site. Hope all goes well.

Thanks for your help!

Hey – sounds good, let me know if the problem persists :)

Cheers

The section I’ve circled on the screenshot does not respond to Theme Blog Functionality options. Whether I chosee certain social media sharing options or not, all of them still appear. http://s22.postimg.org/t8dyrpj69/sample.jpg

The “Display Full Date” option doesn’t work either. Whether it’s checked or not, the date included the year, showing the full date.

Hey,

That blog layout always shows that set of meta info regardless, if you’d like the social settings to take effect – change the blog header type that you have set to one of the other options

Cheers

Hi,

The new salient theme update is compatible with WordPress 4.5? Just want to make sure before updating the current WordPress 4.4.2.

Thanks Ricky

Hey,

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 :)

Cheers

Hey, I’ve read that the current update to WordPress messed things up with the visual composer. I can’t find what the plugin is called in order to updated it. All my plugins are showing as being up to date?

Hey – Salient v7.0.8 i the only version of the theme compatible with WP 4.5 – once you’re using the current version of Salient the update for Salient VC will show in your plugins section of the admin panel

Cheers

Is there an way to use the style of the portfolio slider navigation arrows (previous / next) on a nectar slider instead?

Hey,

Unfortunately this wouldn’t be possible without some custom modding as of now, though i’ve noted the idea :)

Cheers

Hello. Like you could see i buy your theme! ;)

I’m looking for the line-height for the responsive h3. I mean the spacing (line-height) of the title (h3) in mobile version is too closer ?

Thx

And i forgot to told you, VERY EXCELLENT coding for this theme! I NEVER see this before, i have 100/100 in the Pingdom result !! (with “wp fastest cache” plugin) SEE: http://nimb.ws/OA1SbL

Congratulations !! :)

Hey! I’m glad to hear you’re digging it :)

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

@media only screen and (max-width: 1000px) {
body h3, body  .row .col h3, body  .masonry.classic_enhanced .masonry-blog-item h3.title {
  line-height: 30px!important;
}
}

Cheers

Phil, I’ve updated my WordPress and Salient, but my logo for my site doesn’t show anymore? http://innisfayleaberdeenangus.com/ It did before I updated. This is happening for a lot of my sites which I use Salient on??

Hey,

Have you tried to reupload the logo and retina for all areas in the options panel?

Cheers

Hi i am having trouble enabling the drop down menu. Can anyone help please. Thanks

Please share your URL so I can see your current settings

How am I supposed to do that?

Hey, just paste your website URL in this comment box – if you’d prefer to keep it private you can post it in a private ticket here: themenectar.ticksy.com/

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.

Hi, i updated to WP 4.5 and i’m having issues with my page headers and the nectar slider. I already went through the fix for VC, but am still having issues with my headers and sliders on several of my sites. http://www.aconcertforhumanity.com & http://www.onestrongfamily.com looking through the other comments, it appears there is a handful of people having these same issues. Are you guys currently working on a fix for these?

Hey, please see my response to your previous comment in regards

Cheers

After updating to Wordpress 4.5 none of my page headers are working…i already went through all of the fixes for visual composer, but I can’t seem to figure out why the headers stopped working. Are others experiencing this problem?

My support has expired….so I cannot open a ticket. I disabled all of my plugins and the problem still persists. Others appear to be having the same issue. Is there another way I can open a ticket without renewing support?

Hey – if you’ve also verified that no third party plugins you have active are causing this – could you send me an email using the form on my profile page? http://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

?There is a 3 pixels overlap on the menu when scrolling to the rows using the One Page Scroll ?feature on my site.

It seems like the “padding-bottom: 16px;?” that is added to the DOM on scroll might be the issue.

It gets added dynamically here: #header-outer[data-lhe=”default”] header#top nav > ul > li > a

How can i fix this in my child theme to remove the overlap?

Thank you

Hey – there’s two places to make that change in the init.js, one for the page load and one for scrolling when clicking. Try making it in the other section as well

Cheers

Great. thank you

You’re welcome :)

Is there a way to add a font-awesome icon in front of each name in the page submenu? I’ve been trying to find how to add it in. Here is reference URL http://www.milagrosfitness.com/control/trainers/ thanks in advance.

Hey,

Unfortunately as of now this would require some custom development but i’ve noted the idea on the wishlist :)

Cheers

Could you at least point me to the file where I can hard code in an icon in front of those names? Thanks for the reply. I appreciate it.

Hey – the menu items are generated in the WP function wp_nav_menu in the header.php so you could just delete that and hardcode the menu items in if desired

Hi, everything’s updated but I’m still getting this error when I go to update VC: Could not copy file. js_composer_salient/locale/js_composer-cs_CZ.po

Hey, have you tried to delete the Salient VC plugin and then reinstall it from appearance > install plugins after?

Cheers

Hi, my cousin purchased this theme and I’m helping her customize it a little bit more.

I’m trying to change the transparency of the second section at kb.timcorlett.com so that you can still see the video header playing behind it when you scroll down. I’ve already modified the parallax effect and adjusted the alpha in the row settings, but I still can’t see the video behind it.

I can’t for the life of me figure out what element I need to apply custom CSS to to make the second section transparent. Any tips from the author would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

Hey,

Unfortunately this would take more than just CSS since there’s javascript that also hides the parallax header when scrolled out of view located in the init.js file – have you looked into Envato studio in regards?

Cheers

Ahhh ok. If it requires that much work I’m fine leaving it. Thanks for the tip!

No problem :)

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
