RE: Nectar Slider – I have added headings on each slide, with a semi transparent background behind the heading text. I have figured out how to center the headings, change the font, and change the transparency, but I can’t shorten the semi transparent “bar” behind the heading text (it now goes across most of the slider image). Is there a way to change the length of the transparency behind the heading text? Thank you!
Hey,
Could you kindly share your URL in regards so I can take a look at your settings?
Cheers
Hey, add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:
.swiper-slide .content h2 {
display: inline-block!important;
}
.swiper-slide .content {
text-align: center!important;
}
Cheers
Hi, I LOVE this theme! Awesome work, seriously. I am unfortunately stuck, however.
I recently updated my Salient theme and VC, but suddenly the page header and page template options have disappeared when I create a new page. Those options and other configurations are coming up when I make a new portfolio item, though. I tried deactivating plugins, but still no luck. Any advice? Thanks in advance!
Hey! 
if you’ve already verified that no third party plugins are causing the issue, also make sure the page builder is set to display on the pages post type in Visual Composer > role manager in your admin panel
Thanks for your input! Hmm, that’s really weird. The page builder is set to display on posts and pages. But still no luck in getting those settings to show up on a new page. I went through all my plugins and deactivated them one by one.
Not sure if this is relevant, but I do have an SEO plugin – All In One SEO Pack. Those settings are also supposed to show up in pages, but aren’t. They’re also only showing up when creating new posts. Is there anything else I can try?
Hey, could you please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can take a look and provide the ticket ID here once you’ve done so? themenectar.ticksy.com/
Hi!
Love your theme! Small problem though, lately when I add a product to my shop, something replaces the image with a resized & cropped image.
Example, I upload and pic something.jpg and when I view the product on my site the source code shows something-600×630.jpg
What’s the culprit that doesn’t use the product image I choose but a cropped version of it? It’s cutting my images into more square shapes.
How it used to work and still looks good: http://pandellahboutique.com/product/black-and-white-stripe-pocket-shirt/
New resized and cropped more square example (sad face): http://pandellahboutique.com/product/black-turtle-neck-swing-dress/Hey,
Make sure you have your “Single Product Image” size set correctly in WooCommerce > settings > products. Then run this plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/
Cheers
Hello! For the ‘next blog post’ feature on post pages, is there a way to choose posts to show from certain categories only? Thanks for your help.
Hey – as of now that would require modding the nectar_next_post_display function in the functions.php file – i’ve noted your idea for the wishlist though
Cheers
Hi, I am using jotform, intended to create an auto pop-up in home page by using jotform, pasted the code below in header.php, it will ruined the headers (the nectar slider will not be loaded) as what anki79 mentioned earlier.

Hey, please share your URL in regards so I can see the error it’s creating

Hi – I tried to do the 4.11.2 VC update via plugin but it won’t update? I just get this…. “To receive automatic updates license activation is required. Please visit Settings to activate your Visual Composer.”
Click on the Settings link – then I just get “You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.”
Anyone know how to get it to update?
Yes I got it to update – YAY – took seven goes as new error was coming up… “An error occurred while updating Salient Visual Composer: Update package not available” Must have been loads of people trying to update or something? – Anyway got it to update at last. Thanks
Hey, glad to hear you got it to update!
Hello, I bought the theme a while back but I’m finally getting around to using it. I like the Agency demo where the page transitions from the video to the content. I would like to do this without the video (basically page to page transition, like this: http://tympanus.net/Development/PageTransitions/ ) and have each “page” have its own content. Is it possible with this theme?
Thank you
Hey,
As of now this would require some custom development but more options are on the way!
Cheers
There are some things wrong with the admin backend. My Salient VC keeps getting turned off for page types randomly, and automatically, on page saves. I have to go back and turn it on to make edits. Secondly, my Google analytics showed that the script was missing from my website…low and behold I go to Salient theme options and the Google analytics box is blank.
What’s going on with your Wordpress admin coding, guys?
Hey,
Both of these are not known issues – please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can take a look at what’s going on themenectar.ticksy.com/

I’m having an issue with my visual composer – it isn’t appearing. The classic mode is appearing when I attempt to switch over – all of the code is there.
However, when I click on the visual composer all it shows me is the icons to save as a template or add a new shortcode.
Please help! Where have I gone wrong?
Just kidding – I just read your comment above in regards to WP 4.5
Hey, glad you found the answer
Blog Detail Page – Meta Data
What is the CSS to change the hover state when I rollover ‘Author’ and ‘Comments’?
Hey – what blog settings are you using for the single page? Could you kindly share your URL in regards?
Cheers
I used this code to disable until I could get the hover color correct. On hover text changes to white and you can’t read it.
.meta-author, .meta-comment-count, .meta-category { display: none!important; }
Hey, add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:
html .single #page-header-bg #single-below-header a:hover {
color: #000!important;
}
Perfect! Thank you very much!!!!!!
You’re welcome
Hello, i need to have a single page with maybe 2 rows with a background picture that always remains full screen, regardless of screen size.
Basically just a one big background with some content in the middle.
I hope you get what i mean, could you tell me how this is accomplished?
Hey,
The only way to accomplish this as of now would be with the Nectar Slider since it offers the fullscreen option – have you tried to use that yet?
Cheers
Hey,
Currently i’m seeing an empty third tab with the second and first not containing any pricing table – is this still what’s happening on your end?
Cheers
please look at it again I had removed the third tab content.
Never Mind Got It, put it inside a text block and used shortcut, thanks!
Hey, glad to hear
solved thanks
You’re welcome
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.
From the masonry blog, how do I get a standard post to open in new tab, similar to method for the “link” post? I even tried the “Page Links to” plugin but it ignores my request to open the url in a new tab. Alternatively, adding a featured image to the link post would work to, if that’s easier?
Hey,
Are you use the classic masonry style or the meta overlaid?
Cheers
Hey Support,
With all of the custom css you helped me add, the mobile navigation does not work properly.
css: http://imgur.com/ytEqxBl mobile screenshot: http://imgur.com/lDavAhv website: solistone.com
Please advise, Thanks Dave
Ah nevermind. I figured it out. I don’t think it had to do anything with the CSS. I added in blank menu items to push the menu to the right. I removed those.
Can you assist me on adjusting the menu constraints so it doesn’t overlap the logo on certain widths? http://imgur.com/1EbqOKo
Also – the ability to change parent pages has strangely disappeared? The only new plugin I installed was Google Analytics. I deactivated and deleted to see if if would fix it and it did not. http://imgur.com/kUa1XCZ
Hey,
1. Add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel
@media only screen and (max-width: 1300px) and (min-width: 1000px) {
header#top nav > ul > li > a {
font-size: 14px!important;
}
header#top #logo img {
height: 40px!important;
}
}
2. Change parent pages when editing the menu in your admin panel?
Cheers
Any chance you can add some customization for the to/secondary menu font size? Every time I add a telephone link, I always have a few bits of code to add/fix. Some more header/menu options would be fantastic as well.
Still love the theme- fantastic work!
Hey, thanks for the request
Cheers
Hi !
Awesome theme thanks for your work !
We have an issue to load portfolio thumbnail ! We are on ‘one page’ demo and have to load a huge catalogue ! In FIREFOX developer tools > “Network” the page seems to load original size and not thumbnails.
Is there a way to not load the featured images on the main portfolio page and only load the thumbnails? My portfolio is loading so slowly it’s scaring people away, even with pagination turned on.
Thanks so much!
Hey! Please share your URL in regards so I can see your current settings
Cheers
Hey – it seems you’re using the “custom thumbnail” upload instead of the featured image. When using the custom thumbnail there’s no cropping done, you’ll need to remove those and opt for the featured image instead
Hi !
Ok got it ! But the thumbnail generated doesn’t respect my images ratio.. For example, all my image are in 1000500px and the thumbnail generated is 600403px.. Is it possible de modify the size of the thumbnail generated to match with my 250 images ???
Never mind all good ! An idea why our facebook share not shows the featured image on some single portfolio and work on others single ? Other social media, like G + , Twitter, LinkedIN, work good but not Facebook …
Thx for your help !
Hey again! Could you kindly share a specific project URL where the featured image isn’t working in a share so I can analyze it?
Cheers
Yeah of course !
Doesn’t work : http://newwayevolution.com/portfolio/metalxs-deftones/ Work : http://newwayevolution.com/portfolio/deezer-session-enter-shikari/
Thx !
Hey – when attempting to share the URL I’m currently seeing the featured image http://i.imgur.com/JGacQcE.png
Is it possible it increase the size of the title font on the toggle panels?
I’d also like to reduce the transparency of them too
http://www.51waysdemos.co.uk/jsm/health-and-safety/Thanks
Hey, add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
body .toggle h3 a {
font-size: 18px!important;
background-color: #f4f4f4!important;
}
Cheers
Hello. I just updated my Salient Theme to the latest version and it broke the site. I can’t access/login via the admin page anymore. When i use a different theme (going into ftp and renaming the ‘salient’ them folder) i can login and use the admin backoffice again.
I have set up the DEBUG options in my wp_config.php file to see what makes it crash : “Fatal error: Class ‘ReduxFramework’ not found in [...]/htdocs/wp-content/themes/salient/functions.php on line 2972”
I have tried to downgrade to Wordpress 4.4.1 but still no success.
This is the 2972 line in the ‘functions.php’ file : wp_localize_script(‘redux-opts-field-upload-js’, ‘redux_upload’, array(‘url’ => ReduxFramework::$_url .’inc/fields/upload/blank.png’));
My website : http://www.tibojansingh.com/
Pleas can you help me out ? Thnka you.
Hey, earlier up in the current Salient functions.php file the redux class is included. When you updated did you make sure to delete the old Salient before placing the new version to ensure no overwrite conflicts occurred?
Hello and thanks for your reply. Ill re-delete the tsalient folder in /themes and give it another go to see if it fixes itself then.
Sounds good, let me know how it goes
Cheers
Welp it all is right now. Fresh copy of the last Salient update fixed it all for me
Had to readjust my FTP rights on that Salient folder.
Cheers !
Glad to hear
Hello! We have Salient Theme installed in a website and Wordpress 4.5 updated. We bought de Visual Composser (not Salient’s visual composser) and so many shortcodes did not work (background image in a row, for example). Is there any way to make this shortcodes work again? because it takes too much work correcting all the web. Thanks
Hey, Is there a reason you want to use the raw Visual Composer over the included Salient version? Also are you saying the shortcodes are not working in the backend when creating the page or on the front of the site?
The reason to use the raw version rather than salient is that with the update to 4.5 the salient visual did not work and when we try to update it, the WP send us to the raw version. Where can we download the salient version for the visual composer? We have the latest version of the theme. Do we have something left to do? Thankx
The latest Salient version (7.0.8) includes Salient VC 4.11.2 – try to delete your old version of the Salient VC in the plugins section of your admin panel and then install the current one from the Appearance > install plugins section
Cheers
Thank you! we have updated Salient to the latest vesrion and it works. Thanx for your help! we apriciate a lot!
No worries
