I’ve updated to latest versions and Visual Composer needs to be reauthorized, but my credentials no longer work. I can’t get support through VC, because the plugin came bundled. Any ideas?
Hey,
The Salient VC included with the theme is the latest version (4.11.2) What version are you on right now?
Cheers
Thanks for the reply. It’s not the WPBakery VC? That’s what’s installed. 4.7.4
Oh, jesus. I am such an idiot. Wrong theme. My salient site is working great. Sorry to waste your time!!!
Hey, no worries!

I want to remove the bottom shadows on images from my blog masonary home page – it’s on every image.
I see how to remove the bottom shadow from my header once i’m actually in a blog post… but for the main blog page, all the posts still have the shadow.
can someone please help?
thanks
Hey,
Are you talking about the bottom shadow seen to the meta overlaid http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-blog/ or the default masonry http://themenectar.com/demo/salient/blog-masonry-fullwidth/ ?
Cheers
hey there,
yep i’m talking about the bottom shadow to the meta overlaid http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-blog/ the images seem to have both a darker transparency over them and a bottom shadow… hoping to remove both. i’d like it to just be the clean, plain image – no shadows, hover-states or transparencies.
thanks
Add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel 
body .masonry.meta_overlaid .masonry-blog-item:hover .post-featured-img:before {
display: none!important;
}
body .masonry.meta_overlaid .masonry-blog-item .post-featured-img img {
opacity: 1!important;
}
Cheers
thanks! that worked to remove the transparency however there is still a bottom shadow over the images until i hover over it. can we also remove that bottom shadow completely?
thanks!
Hey, try this as well 
body .masonry.meta_overlaid .masonry-blog-item .post-featured-img:before {
display: none!important;
}
That did the trick! Thank you so much.
Can i also request the CSS from ThemeNectar to replicate the homepage hover state onto the blog masonry items?
Looking to have this styling as the blog masonry hover, “background-color:#e6e7e8; opacity:0.5;”
Should i put in a support ticket for this or is it something you can provide?
Thanks again,
i have two more issues that have arisen…
it has to do with the featured blog image in Masonry and for portfolio…
-The featured image displaying as regular-alternative for blog masonry is distorted -The featured image displaying in all portfolio masonry items are distorted -When the blog featured images is set to a 1:1 image ex. 700×700, the image displays properly for regular-alternative -When the portfolio image is set to an image size of 678×542, the image displays properly for wide-tall
I’m hoping to get a fix so that the blog images will be properly cropped and displayed automatically, as they are in the “regular” and “large featured” masonry image sizing.
And the bigger issue, when i start to change the display options on portfolio items, then all the other items and images get distorted.
I’m happy to create a user admin account for you, so that you can view it for yourself as it is difficult to describe…
Please let me know, thanks
Tonya
Hey,
Could you please indeed open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can take a further look at the issues? https://themenectar.ticksy.com
Cheers
Great, just did that – thanks
With this theme could I make animated titles like this: http://www.iloveluisa.com/ or even titles that aren’t animated but are images?
Hey,
You could upload your own title images if you have them, but there’s no functionality in the theme for animated titles like that. The animated titles Salient offers can be seen in the demos

I want to add a shortcode to the header of my website. The shortcode is to enable a login button on header panel. Can you let me know how can I? achieve this? Note: Short code is [loginout login=”Log in” logout=”Log out”]?
Hey,
You can add that in the header.php file by using the wordpress function do_shortcode.
echo do_shortcode('[loginout login="Log in" logout="Log out"]');
Cheers
I’m testing a one-page fuctionality on a test site: http://www.quench.delivery/ Everytning works 100% on the desktop view, but once I change to the tablet/phone view the sticky header is not transparent as I set in the backend, and if I click on the responsive menu the header color changes from black (which should be transparent), to white! What is going on and how can I corrct this? I need to get this resolved ASAP.
Also, the map is set to grayscale and dark, which then creates a grey area around the streetsnames which looks terrible, how do I fix this?
regards gustav
And on the mobile version the header logo is missing?
Hey,
1.
@media only screen and (max-width: 1000px) and (min-width: 1px) {
#header-outer[data-mobile-fixed="1"], #header-outer[data-permanent-transparent="1"][data-mobile-fixed="1"], #mobile-menu[data-mobile-fixed="1"] {
background-color: transparent!important;
}
body #header-space[data-header-mobile-fixed="1"] {
display: none!important;
}
}
2. This is going to be changed in the next update – as of now it would require modding to the map.js file located in the js folder
3. Please make sure you’ve supplied a retina logo as well in your options panel
Cheers
Hi. Thank you, this seems to work, can I also ask, when my slider loads on the homepage, it seems another image or black background with cross stripes first load in the background, how do I switch this off?
Hey,
Add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:
.nectar-slider-loading {
background-image: none!important;
}
Cheers

Hi!
I’m using WPBakery Visual Composer alongside the Salient theme.
I’ve placed multiple Nectar sliders one after the other, and while it looks great on desktop, on mobile devices it looks like there’s white padding below each slider.
Any suggestions on how to get rid of them would be awesome!
Thanks

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

Hey!
Add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:
body.mobile .vc_row-fluid .wpb_column {
margin-bottom: 0!important;
}
Also need css code to change the full width divider line to #39a9db, not white.
Please see http://compasshosting7.com/ the line in question is above the “who we are” section.
Nevermind, figured it out!
Hey, glad to hear 
I need some code to move the text “ADVANCED DATA INSIGHT SERVED ON A SILVER PLATTER” down a few pixels, to start at his knuckles in the header.
http://compasshosting7.com/Hey, add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:
body #page-header-bg .span_6 {
padding-top: 20px;
}
got it thanks!
Cheers 
Sorry, I needed to change to a real nectar slider so that I could add a button. Now, when I decrease the browser size to check mobile responsiveness, the text gets really small and doesn’t respond well. I’m guessing that one of my custom CSS codes has broken it?
So 2 things; 1. Can you provide the new, correct CSS in order to move the header text and button down 20 px’s (so the text starts at the knuckles) and 2. Can you please check my CSS and let me know what the fix for the mobile responsiveness issue is?
http://compasshosting7.com/Hi again, There is a mobile issue with the nav bar. They are from my client and I’m not sure what phone they are on (know it’s a smartphone) but can you please review these screenshots and advise?

4: how can i remove author name and display picture from single post , i unable to find any option is theme panel. can you guide please
screenshot: http://s33.postimg.org/u8zsna14v/sc2.png
Hey,
1. This would require custom modding to the shortcode-processing.php file located in the nectar/tinymce directory. The recent posts function does not echo featured images for that style
2. There is no option for this as of now – you need to upload the video already muted
3. Add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:
.single-post #single-below-header.fullscreen-header>span {
width: 50%!important;
}
.single-post #single-below-header.fullscreen-header>span.meta-comment-count {
display: none!important;
}
4. Hey, add this into the custom css box as well:
#page-header-bg.fullscreen-header .author-section, #page-header-bg[data-post-hs="default_minimal"] .author-section {
display: none!important;
}
Cheers
Is there any way to set slider revolution as my header-side slider instead of default one? And I can’t find where do I disable the default slider at all?
Hey,
If you’re using the Home Slider, you need to change your page template to “default” from the home one that is currently set in the page attributes metabox
Cheers
oh, gotcha. Thanks !
You’re welcome 
Hi Support -
Sometimes when navigating our website, going back produces a blank page and does nothing. Users have to continue to clicking back until a page produces (or worst, bounce).

Can you help please?
Thanks in advanced, Dave
Hey, this item is fixed in 7.0.9 currently available as a beta – if you’d like access please request it in the support forum https://themenectar.ticksy.com
Cheers
Sweet. I may do that. When is 7.0.9 officially released?
There’s no exact ETA – i’ve decided to go slower with this one since it’s bug fixes only and allow people enough time to test/report any issues for a better transition
Hi,
3 days ago I wrote a ticket – but until now no answer
Can you help me?
Thank you sooo much!
Hey, it seems it was answered by the support staff earlier – but in regards you could also add this into the custom css box:
@media only screen and (min-width: 1000px) and (max-width: 1300px) {
header#top nav > ul > li > a {
font-size: 14px!important;
}
}
Cheers!
Can’t use the page builder after recent update. Is there a current fix or will there be soon?
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 again!
I submitted a ticket to get help with an issue 2 days ago but got none, maybe you can help me here:
I removed the sticky header, but now the submenu (that I need to stick to the top after it’s reached) has a top padding (that I think must be the space the sticky header should be). How can I make it go to the top of the page after activated?
Here you can see the issue http://goo.gl/UTyzVZ
Thank you!
Hey!
This would require javascript modding – even if you set the top to be 0px, the place where the event triggers to make it stuck would be off by the header height amount. I would suggest using the hide header until needed option as the corporate demo shows instead of your css to make the header position absolute
Cheers
Hello,
I am noticing a padding or margin issue when a media query is called but cannot isolate the cause.
lilasrq.com/test – When the page is scaled responsively, something is pushing the content down considerably, making the menu hidden below the pagefold on mobile.
Any input you have on this would be greatly appreciated!
Hey,
Do you have this css entered into your custom css box?
#header-outer, #header-space {
display: none;
}
Currently I’m not seeing your menu appear on mobile at all because of that
Cheers
Yes, I am currently hiding the menu and designed a custom menu that sits below the slider content. My issue resides in the page scaling and the margins pushing all content down. If you start scaling the page you’ll notice a @media query shifting the content down. I can’t seem to find where/what is causing this.
Try adding this in as well:
@media only screen and (max-width: 1000px) and (min-width: 1px) {
html body #header-space[data-header-mobile-fixed="1"] {
display: none!important;
}
}
There it is! Thank you so much.
Cheers 
Hey, awesome theme! I am wondering, in portfolio projects if there is a way to either have the ‘Title Overlaid w/ zoom’ to not move along with the cursor, or to add with css at the ‘Meta from bootom on hover + eniter thumb link’ to zoom on hover Just like the fancybox does , i’ve tried to ‘scale(1.5) ’ it but didnt work
Hey,
Add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:
.portfolio-items .work-item.style-3 img, .portfolio-items .work-item.style-4 img, .portfolio-items .work-item.style-3-alt img {
transform: scale(1)!important;
}
Cheers
.portfolio-items .work-item.style-3 img:hover , .portfolio-items .work-item.style-4 img:hover , .portfolio-items .work-item.style-3-alt img:hover {
transform: scale(1.5)!important;
}
The problem with that is that you dont actually hover the image , but the link on top of it so it doesn’t zoom
-If that is not possible, then perhaps we could change Project Style to ‘zoom’ ,but stop the constant moving of the image based on cursor movement?
Thanks in advance !
