Hi, I have attempted several times to renew support however there seems to be a problem on the site and wont let me process the payment via paypal.

I have an issue on the website, I have Updated to the latest wordpress, Uploaded and added the latest salient theme however it will not display the Visual Composer on any pages I can see an error stating: “Uncaught TypeError: $template.get is not a function” within the composer-view.js on my site. It worked fine on the development link before we upgraded everything.

Hey,

After you updated Salient to 7.0.8 did you also update your Salient VC to 4.11.2 (the only version compatible with WP 4.5)?

Cheers

Hallo,

I have made a password protected page, however I am not able to enter the password on the page. I have viewed the post in multiple browsers and I am still unable to enter a password to access the content.

Hope you are able to help, thank you!

Got it! I probably just didn’t have then newest version uploaded to my wordpress. I just added this to functions.php:

-------------

  1. Custom password form #-------------#

add_filter( ‘the_password_form’, ‘custom_password_form’ ); function custom_password_form() { global $post; $post = get_post( $post ); $label = ‘pwbox-’ . ( empty($post->ID) ? rand() : $post->ID ); $output = ’<form action=”’ . esc_url( site_url( ‘wp-login.php?action=postpass’, ‘login_post’ ) ) . ’” class=”post-password-form” method=”post”>

’ . __( ‘This content is password protected. To view it please enter your password below:’ ) . ‘

<label for=”’ . $label . ’”>’ . ( ‘Password:’ ) . ’ </label> <input name=”post_password” id=”’ . $label . ’” type=”password” size=”20” /><input type=”submit” name=”Submit” value=”’ . esc_attr( ‘Submit’ ) . ’” />

</form>’; return $output; }

Hey,

Glad to hear you sorted it :)

Hello,
I can’t find the solutions to translate this theme in FRENCH? I tried to put the fr_FR.(po & mo) files to salient/lang or to languages/themes no way at all. Need to rename the po&mo files? Thank you for your help (WP 4.5 + last version of SALIENT)
By the way, incredible work (creation and update) for this theme used for my agency since 2013
Thank you in advance NADOO

Hey,

Do you also have this in your wp-config.php file?

define ('WPLANG', 'fr_FR');

Cheers

Hi there,

i have searched the comments but haven’t found any post regarding my ‘issue’ yet.

Is it possible to add another menu item to the mobile (mobile only) header? E.g. next to the woocommerce cart?

I have added a “My Account” Icon in the desktop version and would like to have it on my mobile header as well.

Thanks for your help.

Hey,

Yes – you’d need to add it into the header.php file though. You can search for “mobile-cart-link” to end up at the right place :)

Cheers

Hi,

Thanks for the great theme. Can you please let me know how to reduce the space between the elements when using a visual composer

Thanks in advance

Hey! are you talking about row spacing? If so, setting the row type to full width background will remove the the bottom margin. If you’re referring to something else kindly share your URL in regards and let me know what specifically

Cheers

Hey,

This fixed my issue. Thanks for your help :)

You’re welcome :)

Is it possible to mix features of two “blog header types” without having to create a child theme (I mean, to do it in an custom CSS level)?

I am having a problem because I disabled some metadata in order to have a cleaner post model, but it also excluded the .meta-author of display in the post page.

I noticed that this exclusion only happens in options related with “Variable height” and there is an alternative author format available for “Fullscreen with meta under” that is not excluded while .meta-author is not being displayed (I guess it has to do with .author-section).

So, I would like to bring the author format from an option (Fullscreen with meta under) to another (Variable height minimal) without needing to change the theme deeply.

Thanks in advance!

Thank you a lot for the attention and the information, my friend!

I will try to work on it a little bit and, if something useful is made of it, I will share with you.

And keep up with the good work: it has been 3 years working with this great theme that Salient is!

Thank you very much! It’s always awesome to hear feedback from someone who’s been around since the beginning :)

Cheers

I am the one who thanks you all for the great service you have been maintaining so far since the beginning: I can say Salient/ThemeNectar is the one I trust.

About the code, I have been looking all day long for a solution and encountered a way to avoid damaging the theme and it is by the way of plugins; by this path it is possible to create an attachable shortcode to generate lists of post’s categories or tags in the body of the post in itself.

But, as I am using a model (source: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-list-categories-by-shortcode) provided two years ago by a Wordpress’ moderator, @keesiemeijer, my only issue now is to make the model to inherit some themed customization.

The code for categories is the following and I just need to adapt it to inherit the theme pattern:

// [genre]
function genre( $atts, $content = null ) {
global $post;
$categories = get_the_category_list( ', ', '', $post->ID );
 return '<div id="genre"><b>Genre: </b>' . $categories . '</div>';
}

add_shortcode("genre", "genre");

The code for tags is as well:

// [tags]
function my_tags( $atts, $content = null ) {
global $post;
$tag_list = get_the_term_list( $post->ID, 'post_tag', '', ', ', '' );
 return '<div id="tags"><b>Tags: </b>' . $tag_list . '</div>';
}

add_shortcode("tags", "my_tags");

After all, it will probably look like this (http://i.imgur.com/0GmhtX2.png) and/or this (http://i.imgur.com/A4JEkUK.png), I just have to figure it out how to do it; when it is ready, I will share it with you in order that you optionally offer it to other users as you will.

By using this “element” I am able to make new posts easier because I will not need to write and link the categories and tags anymore and it will work in a quality similar to another body element for posts.

Hi! I found a problem when I applied a Korean category in your skin. The found is divided. Please see, https://www.dropbox.com/s/0k88oc11bttz592/Screen%20Shot%202016-04-25%20at%206.46.46%20PM.png?dl=0

Hey thanks for noting, i’ve marked to test/fix this for the next update :)

hey there, i’m creating Custom Post Types and have ‘post-formats’ in the params:
'supports'            => array( 'title', 'editor', 'excerpt', 'custom-fields', 'post-formats', 'author', 'thumbnail', 'comments', 'revisions', ),
- and to get the Blog Element to work i added to the “shortcode-processing.php”
'post_type' => array('post','audio','my-custom-post-type'),

and it works but it seems some of the styles indicated for the Blog aren’t working, it looks like there’s a ”#post-area.” in front of the working Blog runs, but not for the custom post types Blog runs…

how can i get this to work? thanks~

add what? ”#post-area” ? not sure what to add where but i think you’re saying it’s doable yes? if you could be more specific it’d be great! thanks :)

Your cpt content would need to be wrapped in this HTML

<div id="post-area" class="col span_12 col_last"> 
  <div class="posts-container" data-load-animation="none">
    CPT ITEMS HERE
  </div>
</div>

i’ll have to open a ticket for more info…

Hey, what about modal shortcode? It’s a must nowadays! Pleeeease!

Hey! The item is indeed on the wishlist – i’ve noted your +1 :)

Hi :)

On the Corporate Demo Homepage, how is the background overlap with the parallax behind the blog posts done?

Thanks!!

I definitely should have done a better job of searching the comments before asking, I apologize. Columns with negative margins :)

Thanks!

Hey,

Glad you sorted it :)

Cheers!

Hi ThemeNectar,

Updated Salient from 4.5 to 7. I have the problem that a line of tekst is loaded above the site. I’ve let it checked, but can’t find the source. It’s an google analytics line. (shows only on smaller screen, but allways there). www.pro-intro.nl

looking forward to youre reply.

Hey,

Are you sure you don’t have that added into your Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab?

Cheers

Yes it was. Thank you for you’re fast reply. I knew it must be something like that.

Glad to hear it’s sorted :)

Hi ThemeNectar,

I’ve used Salient v4.5, but due to VC problems bought a recent version. When switching to the new theme, it looks like the vc-rows / collumns are not working.. What do I need to change to make it like its at this moment? check www.pro-intro.nl

Edit: fixed. not needed. (Activate visual composer)

Hey,

glad to hear you sorted it :)

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.

Hi,

I just updated to the latest Salient version due to issues with WP4.5. I also switched to using the Salient child theme. Now my Custom CSS Code that I entered in the Salient Theme Settings is not working. How can I get this working again? Ofcourse I can implement the code in the child theme’s CSS, but that’s not the solution for me.

Hope to hear from you soon.

Cheers, Marc

Hey, please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials since there’s no such known issue themenectar.ticksy.com/

Hi I’m using the centred nav with the logo over the menu text.
Is there a way I can make the navigation fixed so it stays on the screen when the logo scrolls out of view.
I currently have all of the nav scrolling out of view but would like the text links to remain static at the top of the page after the logo has scrolled out of view
Thanks

Hey,

currently this wouldn’t be possible without some custom development unfortunately but more menu options are on the way :)

Cheers

one question, how to translate visual composer?

- salient visual composer

Hey, the text domain should show up in the translation plugin you’re using – which plugin are you translating with?

Hi there! How can I change or delete the line ‘All rights reserved Salient.’ in the sticky mobile menu? Many thanks!

Hey,

You can find this in the Salient options panel > Off canvas navigation tab > Off Canvas Menu Bottom field

Cheers

Hi, I have a Imager Comparison running in my site now. I like the plugin and it looks good for large images. I have a number of rows stacked on top of each other, each with an “Image Comparison” plugin in it. All the images that are big are center within the row. But if I have an Image Comparison that has small images in it (which don’t fill the column horizontally), I can’t seem to get it be in the center of the row. Any idea why? I’ve gone into every column setting to make sure everything is set to center but it still makes it left aligned.

Hey – you could give the row a class e.g. “center-twentytwenty”and then target the element of that specific row

.center-twentytwenty .twentytwenty-container {
    max-width: 600px;
    margin: 0 auto;
}

Sorry for the delay getting back. Thanks! It worked!

No worries, cheers!

To my knowledge there is not a FAQ plugin or shortcode for Salient, am I wrong? If so are there any that you can recommend that integrate nicely in terms of look and feel and functionality into the Salient framework?

Hey,

Right now the accordion or tabbed element would be the the way to get this from Salient itself without plugins

Cheers

Is there any way to make the text on the testimonial slider on on a page to a different colour? I can’t seem to find an option for this.

Hey,

You can – can you share your URL so I can see what settings you’re using for the testimonial element?

Cheers
