Hey Nectar,

Just following up on timing for the next bug fix update. Last time I asked (early May) you thought there would be one coming within a couple days. Just want to know when to plan our downtime/upgrade/testing.

Thanks & happy holiday weekend!

-Roland

Hey!

It’s been in beta – if you’d like a version of it to test as well please open a ticket in regards themenectar.ticksy.com/

I’m thinking about using the single page scroll layout of this theme. However, I do need there to be a few pages beyond the home page (such as blog posts and events). When a user clicks beyond the single page, is it possible to return them to a specific section of the home, single scrolling page?

In this example, when the user goes to the “book and event” page (via the global navigation) and then clicks on “menu”, it returns them to the right section of the home page:

Hey,

When using other static pages make sure you’re setting the anchor links with the full URL such as http://domain.com/#anchor rather than just #anchor. You’ll also need to active the option in the page transitions tab of the Salient options panel to “Disable Fade Out On Click”

Cheers

The header background below the logo disappears. Why is that? it’s cuts right off.

Hey,

Are you also trying to not have any menu items assigned or has your menu disappeared after updating?

Cheers

no, I’m not sure I want a menu up there. Though, it does the same thing with a menu. I can put one in there to test.

Here’s a temp fix – add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:

@media only screen and (min-width: 1000px) {
body #header-outer {
    height: 105px!important;
}
}

Let me know when you assign a menu so I can take another look

any plans to enable images in a mega menu? Also, my columns are currently left justified.. is there any way to have the submenu buttons (i’m using four columns) centered in the megamenu?

Hey,

1. It’s an item on the wishlist :)

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

header#top nav > ul > li.megamenu ul li {
    text-align: center;
}

Hi Team, I am trying to get a Click Funnels pop up box to work on my website. And I cannot seem to get it to work. Can you please help me with this? <script src=’https://app.clickfunnels.com/assets/cfpop.js' type=’text/javascript’></script>

Hey,

Please share the URL where the button isn’t working

Cheers

Thank-you, I got it to work via Click Funnels support. Thank-you so much, Sharnee

You’re welcome :)

Hi is there a way to change the “next project” text to something different? thanks

Hey,

You can translate that using the .po file – however if you’d like to modify it in the theme files it’s located in the functions.php file

Cheers

Hello,

I have tried to adjust the height of the home slider via the provided theme options and custom css. i see that it states the minimum safe height is 400, though any adjustment I make seems to have no affect on the height i`m just trying to shave about an inch off of the browser view so you can immediately see the content beneath :( any ideas?

never mind! I have sorted it out :) my bad!

Hey, glad to hear :)

Cheers

hi please can you help me for some reason i have just made my clients website live but i have gone into the page to edit something and i cant seem to use the visual composer functions! none of the content is there although there is content viewable on the front end!?

Hey,

Are you on the latest Salient (7.0.8)? 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.

Cheers

Hi,

How do I upload my logo on top nav bar instead of text coming there.

Website: http://trichology.co/clinic

Hey, you can do so in the Salient options panel > header navigation tab. There’s a upload fields for the logo, since you’re using the transparency header make sure to also supply the logo in the transparency tab

How do I get a slider similar effect on staff http://circus-la.com/es/

Hey, unfortunately there’s nothing available in the Nectar Slider to simulate that effect – however something similar will be future updates

Cheers

Hey Nectar, My companies theme that I am currently using is ( Themeco X), which I know now is a mistake. Your theme simply just makes more sense and I understand it far more intuitively. Unfortunately I created a good amount of content on this site and I just re designed 3 months ago it I am not sure whether I should delete the entire site and what that would do to all the links or try to change the theme and then change the content.

I do want to note that I want to delete most of the copy for the main pages as I did an extremely poor job Optimizing the site for SEO, which I am a lot more educated in now but wasn’t then. What to you would be the best choice in this scenario and why?

Hey,

Did you you visual composer when building with X? If so if you just changed the theme you’d likely at least salvage some of the structure on your site. However if you didn’t use VC and also are planning on deleting a lot of it you might as well just start over since they custom page builder won’t align nicely with the Salient VC

Cheers

Damn I figured that was the answer. Oh well, back to the drawing board. Thanks Nectar.

You’re welcome – let me know if any other questions arise :)

I could not find a way to change the button text to a darker color. Where is this option? See a screenshot here -> http://i.imgur.com/hO8hHOH.png

Hey,

You’d need to change the active color state on your main nav by selecting “custom” for the color scheme on your header nav in the Salient options panel > header navigation tab

Cheers

Hey There, we cannot seem to find the setting to enable the comments on a BLOG. http://www.freedomfromthemachine.org/blog/ – Can you please tell me where this setting is? We are using the Corporate Demo. Many thanks, Sharnee

Hey, it seems you have comments displaying normally on the single post pages http://www.freedomfromthemachine.org/2016/05/23/butterfly/ – can you please clarify what you’re looking to do?

Hey there, we are stuck on the About Page of this site: http://www.freedomfromthemachine.org/home/about/ If we remove the PAGE HEADER we are lift with a strip of white background that remains even when we don’t want the Header to be in place and rather use Page Level Controls. Our goals is NOT TO HAVE THE IMAGE be half shown on a mobile device. Can you kindly asssist futher to tell use where this setting is. many thanks, Sharnee

Select the color picker and delete any value that might be in there, if there’s nothing in there and you’re still having this issue please open a ticket in regards themenectar.ticksy.com/

Thank-you.

You’re welcome :)

looking to upgrade to the latest Salient version but wondering if there is another update just around the corner?

Hey,

There’s a bugfix update due out shortly

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.

Hello,

Was wondering if there is a method when using the one page layout to still be able to link to external pages? For example, if there is a portfolio embedded into the one page site and you want to be able to do more than just lightbox a single image. Ideally, I’d like to still link to individual portfolio pages, which I’ve done, but then the primary nav on those pages aren’t working as I’ve selected ‘one page’ in the Salient options.

Thanks

Hey,

When using other static pages make sure you’re setting the anchor links with the full URL such as http://domain.com/#anchor rather than just #anchor. You’ll also need to active the option in the page transitions tab of the Salient options panel to “Disable Fade Out On Click”

Cheers

Nectar Team,

I was wondering if you could let me know how I can create the navigation menu used here: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-ascend/

Certain browser window sizes my DropDown menu sub items go off screen and doesn’t look good.

Here’s my url: http://neileverosborne.com

If you could help me out I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks, Alan

Hey,

Please see this in regards https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IZPPUTbvTKQ

Cheers

Nothing pops up in my nav on mobile. I checked the boxes to activate the off-canvas menu, and also checked the box to populate my nav into the off-canvas menu when on mobile, and nothing shows up. Instead, I just get “Add to sidebar widget”

How can i fix?

Hey,

Please share your URL in regards so I can take a look at the setup to assist

Cheers

ThemeNectar,

I’m having a problem with the ‘Separator With Text’ title. I am trying to center it on mobile devices but I am not having any luck. Can you review this link (http://neileverosborne.com/protected-spaces/point-pelee-national-park-canada) and let me know how I can center the ‘Separator With Text’ title.

Many thanks.

Hey,

Currently I’m seeing it centered on that URL, have you changed anything since posting?

Cheers

I played around with the CSS yesterday and I was able to center the text. My apologies for not posting that I solved the problem.

As always thank you for the GREAT customer service and amazing theme!

Thanks.

No worries! Cheers :)
