Is there a way to align the content on mobile? I want to keep the one column (bar menu) left aligned on desktop, but it looks funny on mobile. here is the link in question: http://siteground324.com/~spuntin4/dev/happy-hour/

Thanks!

Hey,

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

@media only screen and (max-width: 1000px) {
  .page-id-6401 .wpb_wrapper p { text-align: center!important; }
}

Cheers

I am attempting to help someone update their site with this theme installed. They have both an older version of wordpress and an older version of the theme. Unfortunately they did not use a child theme, and they want to update the site to the latest version of the theme and wordpress. I downloaded the latest theme version, but what would be the best way to transfer their data? If I simply update the theme via ftp and overwrite the older version’s files, will it still work? Or will it be more complicated?

Hey,

Did they make modifications to the core theme? As long as those files weren’t edited you can update via FTP or through the envato toolkit plugin http://code.tutsplus.com/tutorials/toolbox-of-the-smart-wordpress-developer-the-envato-wordpress-toolkit--cms-23883

Cheers

It is possible that they have altered the main files, but I am meeting with him later today to find out for sure. Would it be possible to make a child theme, copy over all the main theme files they have now to that child theme, and then update the parent theme manually by overwriting the original files with the new version? Or would that work at all?

Hey,

That wouldn’t work – for now if you need to upgrade I’d just make a backup of your current theme that way in case they made mods to the core files you can extract those sections afterwards and make a child theme correctly

Hi,

I have purchased the theme and loaded the Ascend demo template in my theme. But my navigation bar does not look like the one in Ascend. I want it to be the same way. how can I do that?

My website link is www.trichology.co/clinic

I submitted a ticket yesterday. Although I did not get any email regarding the ticket number and other information. I am not able to track it. I registered a ticket with email id rbisrakhia@gmail.com

It has been 6 days and there is no reply for my support ticket and on my email

Thanks Raghav

Hey,

I just imported the ascend settings – before when you tried did you import the ascend demo from the demo importer tab in the Salient options panel?

Cheers

Hi,

Thanks for solving the issue. Yes I have imported the theme file from the demo importer tab in Salient option panel.

Can you let me know what did I missed out?

Because suddenly the fonts also got changed and the site is looking much better. :)

Thanks Raghav

Hey, those fonts are the ascend fonts – you can manage them in the typography tab in the Salient options panel. If you’re having any further issues with importing in the future just let me know :)

Where can i change the font size and style for the Page sub menu from Visual Composer? Can’t seem to find it. Thanks

Hey,

As of now this would require css – add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:

.page-submenu li a {
  font-size: 12px!important;
}

Cheers

If i wanted to change the font to another google font how i adjust this?

Hey, the font would already need to be enqueued in one of the places via the typography section of your Salient options panel – if it is, you can set it with the css

.page-submenu li a {
  font-family: 'Open Sans'!important;
  font-size: 12px!important;
}

Where is the Page Builder or the Visual Composer? I can not find it anywhere… I am watching your video “Nectar Page Builder Tutorial” but I cant find it anywhere in the dashboard. Has this been updated and moved?

Hey,

Have you installed it via the appearance > install plugins section of your admin panel?

Cheers

This may be a small thing to ask but I noticed that there is only one version of the DeviantArt icon but all the other social media icon has at least 2 versions ( one version is encased in a square and the other is by itself). Is there any way to add a DeviantArt icon encased in a square and to also have it appear on the footer as well.

Hey,

As of now this wouldn’t be possible without some custom development but i’ve noted the idea on the wishlist :)

Cheers

I have two CSS style issues I can’t seem to figure out or seem to be conflicting. Probably outside the realm of your assistance for this theme, but I figured I’d ask: (1) I’m trying to vertically center this animated gif on this page. Likewise, I’d like to make sure that white space takes up about 90% of the viewport when loading on any device… in addition to… (2) tying to get a div to always load at the bottom of this page. Primarily, the “What’s New” box. Right now it’s not it’s own div, but even when I try I still can’t get it to work. Basically, I want that div plus the animated gif to take up 100% of the viewport when loading on any device. Can’t get it to work, nor can I get the animated gif vertically centered without using approximated padding-top css. (3) Any way to disable the nav bar logo on first load JUST on the homepage? It’s great if it appears when scrolling, but since I have the animated gif logo, it doesn’t make much sense to have the menu bar logo too.

Sorry for all the questions. If this is outside your scope, that’s fine.

Hey,

1/2. Unfortunately these are a bit out of the scope of what I can provide here

3. Add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel

.home #header-outer, .home #header-space {
  display: none!important;
}

Cheers

Hi I have 2 Pre Sale question: 1. It si possible to add “Google Language Translator” at the top menu of the header ? 2.Is Salient compatible with Polylang plugin? Thanks !

Hey,

1. You could use a plugin in regards however I personally haven’t tested this one https://wordpress.org/plugins/google-language-translator/

2. I only recommend WPML for multi lingual Salient setups

Cheers

Hello,

I just updated Salient and Wordpress, and now I don’t every page with Nectar Slider turns out blank. If I remove Nectar Slider from the page it works as intended! Do you know what could cause this problem? :) I only have a nectar slider on the landing page.

Hey, Could you kindly share your URL so I could take a closer look in order to assist?

I have already deleted that page. Thanks for you reply! Btw can you reinstall Nectar Slider somehow? Or is built in to the theme?

Hey, the Nectar Slider is built into the theme so there’s no way to uninstall or reinstall

Hi would it be possible to not link portfolio items to a portfolio page? Just show images in a masonary grid and thats all?

Hey, which project style are you using? Could you kindly share your URL so I could take a closer look in order to assist?

I have installed the latest salient theme available for download in my accounts download section on envato market labeled “themeforest-4363266-salient-responsive-multipurpose-theme-wordpress-theme”. When installed it states that it is version 7.0.7 with VC version 4.10 and gives no option for updating. Where can we acquire the latest version?

Hey, I just checked right now and it’s allowing the download of 7.0.8 – have you tried the Envato toolkit plugin as an alternative though? http://code.tutsplus.com/tutorials/toolbox-of-the-smart-wordpress-developer-the-envato-wordpress-toolkit--cms-23883

How do you turn off the mobile sticky header? I’m having the same issue with top level pages as other users had, just not sure how to turn this feature off. Site is www.outreachpromos.com Thanks!

Hey! There’s a checkbox for it in the Salient options panel > header navigation > general tab

Cheers

Hello, I have an issue, while adding images to the gallery module, it adds only one image, when selecting few and adding them, it stays in the select view (it doesnt add the images). Any idea how to fix it?

Hey, could you 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 kindly share your ticket ID here once you’ve done so

I can’t, it says “That purchase code doesn’t seem to be valid.”

That’s strange – in the meantime could you email me the same info directly using the contact form on my author page? https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Hey Is it possible to upload custom font? Our customer wants to use his own bought font but we cannot find where to upload the files. thanks in advance

Hey, this would require the use of custom css with font-face or the use of a plugin as the only fonts available in Salient are Google based ones as of now

Cheers

Hi, thanks for your answer :). Do you know a plugin which is compatible with your theme? Best regards

Hey, unfortunately I don’t have one to recommend but if you encounter any issues with the one you try just let me know :)

Cheers

I am looking to purchase this them but page speed is really poor. It would be good if we could see a fully optimized version?

Hey, how long are pages taking to load for you? It could be the time you checked the server, over here currently it’s only showing a 2-3 second load

Cheers

Hi,

I recently began updating our website which has been using the Salient theme along with the Nectar Slider. I updated to the most recent WP 4.5.2 and the Nectar Sliders are no longer appearing on our site (Along with the Visual Composer). I am only on Salient version 4.8.1 and I do not know how to update to the most recent version of Salient. Happy to re-purchase if that will rectify the issue.

Thanks!

Hi, I just re-purchased and was able to update the to the most recent version. Everything is working now except the Visual Composer. The Composer is saying it has a fatal error every-time I try to activate it.

Have you tried to delete your old copy of Visual Composer and install the latest one included with Salient (v4.11.2) from the appearance > install plugins section?

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.

7.0.8 is not available in the downloads section. Although it shows 7.0.8 in the downloads section, once downloaded and installed the theme is version 7.0.7 with a non-functioning VC in WP 4.5. Where can 7.0.8 be downloaded from?

Hey, I just checked right now and it’s allowing the download of 7.0.8 – have you tried the Envato toolkit plugin as an alternative though? http://code.tutsplus.com/tutorials/toolbox-of-the-smart-wordpress-developer-the-envato-wordpress-toolkit--cms-23883

Just downloaded it again and it is the correct version and is working as expected, thank you so much!

Glad to hear! :)

How can I use the “creative and modern” theme? http://themeforest.net/item/salient-responsive-multipurpose-theme/full_screen_preview/4363266 where do I activate this particular template?

Hey,

You can import any of the demos from demo imported tab in the Salient options panel – have you been having issues with that?

Cheers
