Hello ThemeNectar,
Brilliant theme, the reviews are amazing! Before I decide about purchasing, I have two questions:
1. With the Agency demo, can the initial slide 3D animation be disabled?
2. Can the navigation bar be minimised for all screen sizes? i.e. three horizontal bars
Thanks! David
Hey!
1. Yes – it’s completely optional
2. If you use the off canvas menu location only (like the agency demo does)
Thanks!
You’re welcome 
Hello! I create blog post as gallery, add images an check the slider checkbox. But the slider dont show.
Hey, please share the post URL so I can check why that is for you
Cheers
The gallery on that post format only shows on the masonry block

Hi, I did update WP4.5.2 but Visual Composer not works. 
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. 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 ThemeNectar. Thanks for a superb theme
I have a proplem with the Page builder.
The options in the page builder aren’t selectable. They display but nothing happens once clicked.
And there are no third party plugins causing this.
Hope you can help me.
Cheers.

Ok. Vertical alignment. I’ve read a lot of comments on here, and I’ve found a CSS solution that worked. but using the image background/background rollover breaks it/makes it not work.
code as follows. this is the CSS that is applied to a div around the text; { left: 50%; margin-right: -50%; position: absolute; top: 50%; transform: translate(-50%, -50%); }
As I say this works, until you use the background rollover or background colour. any ideas how I can use both this and the background colour feature together?
Hey,
Could you kindly share a URL where you’re using this code with the BG image so I can see what’s stopping it for you?
Cheers
Its behind a coming soon page. should I open a ticket so I can share access privately?
That would be the easiest way – just let me know the ticket ID here once you’ve done so
A similar incident as above. If you add a row to a row, having it placed below, notice the content shifts to the right. As opposed to an independent row placed below, the content stretches to the full width of the container
Brightleafweb.com/new5
http://prntscr.com/b296rcI can’t seem to find that section on your URL, have you since removed it?
What is the name of the taxonomy used to separate portfolio projects by categories?
Hey, it’s called project-type
Thank you very much for the answer.
Cheers!
You’re welcome
there seems to be a bug maybe? Where when you add another row inside an In Container row and try to put that content above that 3 column row, it pushes the 3rd columns content down below the first column. This pushing or returning effect does not happen however when the content is above the 3 column rows, only above. So you have to create a new row above instead..
http://prntscr.com/b28o78Hey,
Could you share the actual URL in regards so I can see why this is occurring for you?
Cheers
Header Starting Text Color:
If I set the “Header Starting Text Color” to say #0a0a0a in Salient options, on the initial navigation menu (before scrolling down the page), the navigation text appears to be set to 0.75 opacity, so when hovering over the text, the hover color appears not to change. How can I set the hover color to another color.
Hey,
Try adding this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
body #header-outer.transparent header#top nav > ul > li > a {
opacity: 1!important;
}
Cheers
Using Wordpress 4.5.2, I recently updated my site to the latest version of Salient (7.0.8) and followed your directions above (deleted the previous version of Salient and uploaded new version to ftp, unzipped visual composer plugin and added to plugin folder -also deactivated all plugins).
On the Install Required Plugins page, it says the installed version is 4.3.5 – “Installed But Not Activated, Requires Update”
When I click the “update”, it says the plugin is the latest version and then it returns me again to the page that says the plugin is “Installed But Not Activated, Requires Update”?.
My site continues to show the visual composer codes and not the actual modules.
Any suggestions as to how to update it so the Visual Composer functions?

thank you – actually just figured it out. It’s the Chrome Browser and caching. I cleared the cache and it worked fine.
Glad to hear
Hello, how can I add a patterned image as a border below my navigation bar? I know the code to add a border color, but I am looking for help on adding a patterned image as a thin border below my navigation bar. Thanks!
Also, is there a way to make changes to the secondary header navigation bar? For example: Change colors, remove bottom border line, change position of social icons and add text? Thanks so much!
Hey,
1.
#header-outer {
background-image: url('img.png');
background-repeat: repeat-x;
background-position: center bottom;
}
2. You can change the colors in the Salient options panel > header navigation tab by selecting custom for your color scheme dropdown. Adding text would be done through custom links in appearance > menues with the link value set to ”#”
Cheers
Hi, thanks so much for your response. The info about the secondary navigation was just what I needed – thank you! However, the code provided for the main navigation border image seemed to create a background image on the navigation bar instead of a border. I am looking to create a border under the navigation, but instead of a border of a solid color I would like to create a border with a picture. Would the code be different for that? Thank you for your help.
Hey again! That code would only work if the image you supplied was already as thin (height wise) as the border you’re trying to add. Could you provide a screenshot of what you’re trying to achieve?
Cheers

Hi ThemeNectar!
I’m interested in purchasing but just wondered if its possible to do a metro style menu with different colour menu items? Sorta like this: http://c2n.me/3xQuYrz.png
Thanks Jay
Hey, unfortunately this wouldn’t be possible without some custom development as of now
Cheers
Hi ThemeNectar. Thanks for a superb theme!
A few days ago, without any changes being made from our end, the margin and/or padding changed on the entire site!
I’ve no idea what happened, and am totally bewildered and unable to fix it.
Can you please have a look at Private Ticket #762873.
Hey!
Please disable your auto optimize plugin and clear the cache to see if it fixes the issue
Cheers
Hi there may I know if this latest Salient theme has the latest RevSlider-plugin in it?
Hey,
Salient doesn’t include revolution slider – the only third party plugin that’s bundled is Visual Composer
Alright, which version is that? the latest version of the visual composer?
I use an older version of Salient and my programmer installed a Revslider in the theme as slider. This slider now is hacked and is giving my website a lot of problems. I guess the programmer cheated me by putting the revslider in while the theme already has the Nectar slider
Interesting, perhaps he was just familiar with revolution slider and wanted to use it? In any case I apologize I can’t provide an update for rev slider myself, but if your programmer installed it you probably have a license for it and can receive updates from the plugin developer
I’m getting a 500 server error when updating the theme. Using the envato toolkit. Tried deactivating my plugins to no avail. Any thoughts? Thanks!
Hey,
Have you checked with your hosting company to see what the error logs are saying?
Cheers
I decided to do it manually and was succesful. I’m sure the auto update was a problem with my server most likely. Thanks you!
Hey, glad to hear!
Cheers
Do you mind me asking where you found the minimalistic laptop/mobile device graphics you used for the “Bike Venture” post and the “Blog Design” post? In this theme? http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-corporate/ I’ve seen them all over the internet but I can’t seem to find them. Another good example is used here: http://elegantthemes.com/preview/Bloom/pop-up/ I appreciate your help if you can provide it!
Hey,
I actually created them myself in photoshop – unfortunately there’s no link I can provide
Cheers
Oh interesting. Well great job because they look exactly like a lot of the graphics I see online. I guess I could try doing it myself.
Thanks, let me know if you have any other questions
Cheers!
Hello, I’ve been using Salient for sometime, and i decided to Update my theme. I’m using child theme and all the normal practices. My main top menu, was fullscreen and fullwith all good, but when i Update, my menu align at right and not anymore fullwidth using all the top bar space. Any clue?
Thanks in advance
Hey,
Could you please share your URL in regards so I can take a look? Also, when you switch to the parent theme does the full width header work?
Cheers
yep sure,it’s in a staging domain url: http://thorgranitos.wemakes.com.br/pt/principal/ I tried to use the parent theme, but still does a gap that before the update did not exist. Before, i just used to use some margin with % to align them along the bar, but now there is some invisible block at the bar that i cant find at the code, and that blocks me to use the full bar with my menu itens.
Hey – do you have any screenshot you can provide of what the header looked like before the update just to ensure i’m understanding correctly?
I’m sorry, I’m on this project all day long and I solved this problem, I was using the Header Layout “Default” and i was unable to align my menu itens along the bar. When I changed to Centered menu, i could increase the space between the menu itens without problem. Thanks anyway!
ps: The plugins Menu image and If Menu are in conflict with the new feature from salient at the menu editor ( Appearance>menu ), I’ve got to remove the feature from functions.php to make them work.
Hey, glad you’ve sorted it and thanks for reporting
