Hey, have you verified that no third party plugins are causing this?
If so please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can take a look at what’s going on

Hey,

Anyone have a solution for the known map marker icon issue – can’t get it to show.
Hey, please share your URL with the map so I can take a look as there’s no known issue with markers being unable to display
Cheers
www.northern-elements.com – I googled it and saw a few others with the same issue=/
Do you have a map point lat/lng (the Map Marker Locations file at the bottom of the element edit screen) set in addition to your map center point lat/lng? If you only set the lat/lng for the center point no marker will display. If you do, please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can take a look themenectar.ticksy.com/
Cheers
I do have both set to valid figures so far as I can tell. No idea why the marker refuses to show, Ive created a ticket..

Thanks 
Three questions please regarding my blog using Salient 7.0.8 (http://blog.sugarwod.com/new-feature-custom-benchmarks/):
1. Why does my body text show in a heavier font-weight compared to the body text of the bullet points? In the inspector they show exactly the same css attributes.
2. Is there a way on a single post page can not show the featured image, but rather just have a left aligned headline for the post like in previous versions of Salient?
3. When I go to the Salient Typography settings, I get three errors on the javascript console. The page is unable to load webfont, select2, and ace libraries.
This is on a clean install and upgrade to the latest versions of WordPress, Salient and Salient Visual Composer. ?I am on WordPress 4.5, Salient 7.0.8 and the latest visual composer.?

1. Could you share a screenshot of what you’re seeing and also let me know the browser?
2. In your Salient options panel you can choose one of the other “Blog header types” to go back to that style, but In the blog post you’ve shared you set a page header image so make sure to remove that as well
3. 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 share the ticket ID here once you’ve done so
Cheers
Hi- thank you for the reply!
1. I have tested this on a Mac in Firefox, Chrome and Safari, all look the same. All of the post on the blog have the same problem, here is one of them: http://blog.sugarwod.com/new-feature-custom-benchmarks
2. Thank you. The font is still messed up, but I think that is related to #3. Because the select.js libraries aren’t loading, I can’t adjust the Typography.
3. I can’t open a ticket unfortunately, I bought this theme a while ago and my support has expired…
Hi-
I figured out the reason for #1, it is this css: p { -webkit-font-smoothing: subpixel-antialiased; }
Turning this off fixed the text problem in Chrome and Safari.

My mobile theme is all jacked up. works great on full website, but I just upgraded from 4. https://originalstradingco.com What am I missing. i can’t figure it out.
Hey,
It looks you have a mobile theme active from a plugin or server feature – could you verify that none of your plugins are causing this?
Cheers
sorry to bother but how would I start that search?
By deactivating the third party plugins you have active – jetpack has a feature in it for a mobile theme that looks like your setup https://jetpack.com/support/mobile-theme/ so if you’re using that plugin, i’d start there
Cheers
Problems after upgrading WP. I upgraded to the latest Salient version but virtual composer didn’t load. It was present in ‘themes>salient>plugins’, zipped then unzipped. Didn’t show under ‘Appearance > install plugins’. Tried uploading bundled and separate js-composer.zip, and get this error both ways: Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error. ?
Hey,
Do you already have another Visual Composer active? You need to delete the old visual composer from your plugins tab before it will show in the install plugins tab
Cheers
I did delete the old one, first from ‘plugins’ then confirmed manually on ftp
Could you please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can take a look? 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.
I just installed the theme for the first time and it is not working properly. I created a new page but when I hit “preview” or save and view the page, the spinner is the only thing that shows. The page never actually loads. ?
Hey,
If you’ve verified that no plugins are causing this issue, please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can take a look themenectar.ticksy.com/
Cheers
I am not able to because my “support expired”. I have yet to use the theme.
Did you purchase the theme a while ago and indeed run out support time or do you believe that is a mistake?
Having updated to 7.0.8, I discovered that the child theme isn’t loading the stylesheet of the main theme properly.
Hey,
are you using the most up to date version of the child theme? If so, please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can take a look themenectar.ticksy.com/
Cheers
Problem activating Salient Visual Composer:
Salient installed ok. Salient Visual Composer installed ok. On activating Salient Visual Composer, it called to access the server, needing my FTP details, stating ‘This is required to enable writing for js_composer. After entering the FTP and proceeding, it stated ‘You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page’.
I am guessing this is a permissions issue on a file or folder that I need to change to 755 or something like that. The error message and original request does not inform me which file of folder requires the permissions change.
Can you please inform, thank you.
Hey, have you checked with your hosting company in regards just to verify the directory permissions are setup correctly to allow WP and WP plugins?
WP 4.5 has broken parts of my site. I would like to update my theme but I’m concerned about losing my content. Would this be the case or would the theme update seamlessly?
Hey,
As long as you have not made modifications to the Salient files you’ll be safe to update as normal – remember once you’ve updated Salient, you’ll still need to head to the plugins section of your admin panel to update Visual Composer as well in order to get the current version (4.11.2).
Cheers
Thank you for the response. Is there any documentation you can provide to help with updating these files?
Ok, I’ve successfully updated the theme and Visual Composer however, now the Nectar Slider/portfolio is not showing any pictures. There’s a space reserved and when I edit, i can see that the element is there and loaded with pictures.
Hey,
Could you please share your URL in regards?
Cheers
This awesome theme is on 4th place in our top 10 WordPress theme list check it here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lPQsWjSnDzA
Hey, thanks for the feature

How do I install your theme? I repeatedly get:
Installing the theme…
The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet.
Theme install failed.
I actually need to upgrade my theme to 7.0.8 and was unable to even though I followed the instructions and installed the Envato Toolkit plug-in. Can you tell me an easy way to upgrade to the new Salient theme?
And, will updating the theme take care of the visual composer issue?
Hey,
1. The Envato toolkit is the easiest way to update if you’re unfamiliar with FTP, how did you first upload the theme and what error is showing when using the Envato toolkit plugin?
2. Yes – but once you’ve updated Salient, head to the plugins section of your admin panel to update Visual Composer as well in order to get the current version (4.11.2).
Hi ThemeNectar,
I used the Envato toolkit, but the upgrade removed all of my customization so it looks like I have to build a child’s theme to preserve my formatting.
Customizations that you made in the theme files or settings from the admin panel?
Page designs made with Visual Composer.
Please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can take a look as there’s no known issue like that themenectar.ticksy.com/

Hi, I have tried to open a ticket, but I get a prompt that says the URL is not valid.
Hey, are you getting that when accessing the URL https://themenectar.ticksy.com/ or when you’re actually in the process of submitting a ticket?
the testimonials are broken on this page – they won’t show all except for using all gray backgrounds and when I do that they rotate incorrectly. http://stambaughdesigns.co
Hey,
I’m currently seeing four testimonials on that page showing in the same fashion as the corporate demo – could you kindly share a screenshot showing what you’re seeing on your end?
Cheers
It doesn’t work when you create the testimonial section from scratch, but it works if you import demo content and delete everything but the testimonial section to use. I did it that way and it’s working now.
Hey, thanks for the update – i’ve noted to test further with this. Let me know if you run into the issue again
Very good thème , however the visual editor module does not work, could you help me thank you

Blog VC module: how do i exclude a post by id? this should be an option field in the Blog Module….
Hey,
This wouldn’t be possible without assigning that post to a specific category and excluding it from your selection in the blog element
Cheers
it’s assigned to a category, how do i exclude it form my selection in the blog element?
By selecting all the categories in your blog element besides the one you wish to exclude http://i.imgur.com/MhEDD7E.png You can select multiple categories too (ctrl + click on PC and command + click on Mac).
thanks – but i want to exclude one POST in a category, the same way i can programmatically…
Unfortunately that isn’t available in the blog element, I was just explaining how the same result could be achieved if you didn’t want to modify the element to allow such functionality
I’m basically looking for this arg in the function which is very old and common to exclude the most recent post:
'offset' => 1
- if we were have a check-box option in the Blog Module to do this, it’d be great, this way people can have a featured post and the blog roll underneath that excludes the most recent post, ie the feature….
$blog_arr = array(
'posts_per_page' => $posts_per_page,
'post_type' => post,
'offset' => 1,
'category_name' => $category,
'paged'=> $paged
);
ACTUALLY- just realised ‘offset’ => 1 breaks the Blog Element, it loads the same posts over and over again via Infinite Scroll – seems so bizarre that this would happen – i hope there’s an easy fix! 
I am so frustrated with the support provided by Tahir. I swear every time he ignores the actual question I asked, and just sends me links to troubleshooting things I’ve already done. https://themenectar.ticksy.com/ticket/744078 I’m just looking for any guidance on what might be causing my child theme to not load after I updated everything (wordpress, salient, and visual composer). One one site, it all went fine. On two other sites, they won’t load since the updates. I just want a clue what to look for.
Hey,
This depends on what files you’ve modded in your child theme, please add your admin credentials to the ticket so I can log into the setup and take a peek for you
Cheers
Just added, thanks!
Any update?
I’m all fixed up now, thank you for the point in the right direction!
You’re very welcome 
Hi Phil. Just wanted to make a feature request for scrolling content blocks, like the following, http://rnbtheme.com/shortcodes/scrolling-content-blocks. Thanks again!
Hey, thanks for the +1! 
Cheers
hello, about a year ago some asked this: “Now, the only other issue I am having with the tabs, is that with the maps, all of the tabs past the first one load with the map off-center… The marker is off to the top-left, out of frame. Is this common, have you seen this happen before?”
I was wondering if you managed to solve it? Thanks!!!
Hey,
could you kindly share your URL showing the issue so I can take another look at it?
Cheers
Sure, http://wordpress.tesselar.mx/
You can go to the tabs section (the maps) and see the problem. Thanks
Hi, I would like to know how to do overlapping sections like shown in this demo page: http://themeforest.net/item/salient-responsive-multipurpose-theme/full_screen_preview/4363266
Nevermind! Figured it out.
Hey, glad to hear 
Cheers
