I have setup a shop with your theme and for some reason wherever we use a product view per category (with woocommerce shortcode or nectar shortcode), the products does not show the correct columns as was indicated with the shortcode, see here: http://www.stonemasons.co.za/shop/troughs/ – the products should display in 4 columns and show 8 products at a time with a pagination at bottom, but it shows 2 columns and no pagination?? Please help!

Hey,

You need to update Salient to current release (7.0.9) in order to get compatibility with the current WooCommerce

Cheers

My logo is sometimes not linked to the home page. Nothing happens when I click on it. Works sometimes only. www.crafty.se

Hey, you’ve accidentally pasted in the pre tags along with the snippet, remove those to allow it to take effect

Nice! Thanks!!!!

No problem :)

Hi ThemeNectar,

Is it possible to set a background image or color on the header background? We have 1-2 seconds delay until the video background loads and want to fill up the space more nicely. Our link: dev.eudc.ro

Hey!

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

body #page-header-bg .nectar-video-wrap {
  background-color: #888!important;
}

Cheers

upgraded to the recent version and there a fatal error on a basic/standard woocommerce page.

wordpress is up to date. all plugins are up to date. woocommerce is up to date.

every other page works except the woocommerce pages after the most recent theme update. woocommerce works fine if I activate DIVI or any other theme.

any ideas? (increasing memory on the server is not possible and shouldn’t be required)

Hey,

What is the fatal error that’s listed in your server logs?

Cheers

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 67108864 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 786432 bytes) in /home/public_html/tablefx.com/wp-content/themes/salient/css/fonts.php on line 1244

Hey, you’re running out of php memory by less than 1mb – with the update of WooCommerce taking up slightly more memory this has pushed you over the server limit. If you’re not running out with another WP theme also using Visual Composer you’re most likely very close as Salient itself isn’t demanding for memory

Hello

when an update of the theme for wordpress 4.5.2, thank you

Hey,

the theme supports the latest WP – you just need to use the current theme version (7.0.9) and the current Salient VC (4.11.2)

Cheers

Hi,

Can you explain how to remove the top image in mobile and tablet view?

Thanks

Hey,

The url shown in the picture seems to go to a 404, can you verify that the page is still live so I can see it?

Cheers

is it possible to turn off all of the contact form styling?

I’m using NEX Form builder and the styling in the theme is messing up the look of my contact form.

Thanks

Hey,

Please share the URL where the issues are occurring and i’d be glad to assist :)

Cheers

Hey again themenectar! Thanks for the unique support :) I am ,sigh, still having some problems with my portfolio in http://ixor.sunergeia.gr/
  • 1. First of all, when the projects are loaded , the first project is loaded well and clear, while the rest are kinda blurred. It is fixed if a category is changed(re-initialization of the portfolio i guess)This can be spotted easily if you look at the project Name & excerpt at the rest projects
  • 2. Another one is that i have written some css to change width of the projects depending on screen , but the problem is that if the page’s width < 1300 when the portfolio is loaded on the page (refresh it with width <1300px), the projects will overlap until i press a category or resize it. perhaps it needs some reinitialization.
  • 3. The other big problem is with the zoom effect on project hover. The image has more details as the transformation (scale : 1 , ) takes place, but when it is over(and initially) it blurres a little bit.
  • 4 Finally, is there a way to change how many will be displayed , responsively? 1300 – 1000 pixels i want to show 3 for reach row, but to get 8 starting ( 4 + 4) , i would like to show 9 so its ( 3 + 3 + 3). But under 1000 again to show 8
  • Thanks in advance <3

Hey!

1/2. Last we spoke on here I suggested trying to add that snippet into the init.js file to trigger a resize on load, did you end up doing so?

3. Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
.work-item.style-4 img {
    backface-visibility: hidden;
}

4. Unfortunately this would take some custom development as of now

Cheers

1/2. I implemented that but the window.onload takes place before the portfolio has ended loading all of its elements… also i think that the portfolio projects’ loading speed has to do with the internet connection , so inserting a delay to like window.onload + 2s (eg) { trigger:resize;} wont work.. Any ideas? :/ Moreover, even after the fix, i would like a more permanent solution. Can i copy-paste the init.js in the child theme like the css?

3. Works like a charm,great! Another Similar problem is that if you browse from mozilla( and i still havent cross-checked other browsers aside mozilla-chrome, so i may perhaps ask you again[sorry for the inconvenience]), the bottom meta underneath is blurred WHILE the transformations occur in some projects, and after that it is cleared. Is there something like that for text?

4. I have single-handedly developed the code fix this . Where should i send you and how(if email , what subject) my work-around for this? I have also written the code to have the search bar on-top right ontop(or right next to depending on your css tweaks of my code) of the search instead of a whole block! i really like your theme and support, so i want you to be able to help more people like you did with me.

Cheers

I forgot to mention something more(and i am trying to minimise the number of my tickets) that the text on mozilla breaks and some other points(perhaps similar problem) like the top navigation in some slides, like the overlay is projected ONTOP of the menu(but perhaps i could request images suited to fix that), at the About page at the submenu blurres a bit until it is loaded, another place is at Width<1000px menu, the off canvas menu fullscreen cover has a delay to clear up the text. Something last, since i mentioned the off canvas menu.. is there a way to present the pages with the order i want? i tried to change the widget pages but didnt managed to do much

Im so sorry.. I made a mistake. I would like the Typography settings for the “Ascend” demo. I would appreciate it very much!

Hey no worries, please see this instead: http://imgur.com/a/sZoyy

Thanks, although I don’t think thats the right one. Its the settings where you used Lovelo for the header font.

Hey,

Please see my response to your other comment in regards :)

Cheers

Hello! I have the following problem: only on post pages the menu is with the white background, while the other pages the menu has the background color # 962071 (set by me). I need you on every page, posts and in the other, the menu is in the same color – # 962071. Can you help me?

Hey, add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:

@media only screen and (min-width: 1001px) {
html body #header-outer[data-transparent-header="true"][data-has-menu="true"].transparent {
  background-color: #962071!important;
}
}

Hello! Thank you very much! Solved the problem!

You’re very welcome :)

Hi TN,

Ever since the new WooCommerce update, I’ve noticed that the beautiful ‘4-in-a-row’ recommended products lay-out in Salient has disappeared.

Now, it’s just 2 products per row, which leaves a lot of the canvas (page) blank and unused, which kinda defeats the purpose of your well-designed theme.

Is there any chance you will update your theme so that these rows will be back to normal (4 products per row, using the full width of a page)?

Looking forward to hear from you,

Hookie

Hey,

Are you also on the current version of Salient (7.0.9)? That’s the only version compatible with the newest WooCommerce

Cheers

Guys,

Any chance you could send me the page code for http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-ecommerce/ I didn’t install the e-commerce demo but like the layout of this page….

Thanks

Hey :)

Here’s the code you can add into the text tab on your classic editor: http://pastebin.com/mB6TPUC3

Cheers

Hi it seems all the Page Configuration buttons such as “Enable Full Width Portfolio” is not active, the items are there, but there is no options to press them…Is this a VC issue? I updated Salient & VC but nothing works :(

Hey,

Have you verified that no third party plugins you have active are causing the issue?

Cheers

Hi team, since updating to Wordpress 4.5.3, the Visual Composer does not work! Especially the Text block with WYSIWUG. I deleted and reinstalled the plugin several times (cleared cache etc..) but I still cannot edit text unless I manually insert HTML codes, can someone please let me know how to fix this? Thanks

Hey,

The only version of Salient that is compatible with the latest WP is Salient 7.0.9, 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 There,

I’ve been having issues with an Instagram plugin I’ve been trying to get work on my site with Salient AJAX enabled. It does work otherwise. I’ve been told by the developer that I need to enter the following JS function? to get the plugin to reload with AJAX:

sbi_init();

I’m wondering if there is a specific place I can enter a JS function that can be called whenever a new page is loaded with AJAX?

??I’m also wondering if it’s possible to change the animation of the Caption in Nectar Sliders to an immediate fade rather than a fade pan from the bottom?

Thanks!

Hey,

1. You’d need to add that into the init.js file located in the js folder. The section to add it in would be initPage function with all the other function calls

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

.swiper-slide .content p, .swiper-slide .content h2, .swiper-slide .content .buttons {
   padding-top: 0!important;
}

Cheers

I would like to display related products, upsells and other things on the product page by default to 5 or 6 products in one row.

Can I?

Hey,

You’d need to modify the woocommerce_output_related_products function in the functions.php file to be 6 and then add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:

.woocommerce .products.related .product, .woocommerce .products.upsells .product {
    width: 15.45% !important;
}

Cheers

Having serious problems installing Visual Composer so none of the pages look correct and I can’t fix them without having access to the rows (and other components within Visual Composer). I posted a support ticket but haven’t heard anything yet.

I am also unable to effectively install dummy data. I have read conflicting reviews on this. Some say to go to Tools/Import/WordPress & install the xml file (inside salient/nectar/redux-framework/extensions/wbc_importer) and some say to skip that step and go into theme options to select Salient (theme) Options and go to “Demo Importer” and check to make sure it’s imported. I have tried both methods and neither seem to work. I also have a lot of extra code on all of the pages (visible on the front end). I am assuming this is because the Visual Composer plugin was not able to be installed?

Link to support ticket: https://themenectar.ticksy.com/ticket/812324

Hey, the theme options are available to import from the theme options panel now – this wasn’t the case prior to 7.0 though so the xml import method was the only way. However the issue you’re facing is caused by not have the Salient Visual Composer active. I can see from your ticket that it’s saying the install is failing due to the folder already existing. Have you tried to install the plugin via FTP as well yet? You can manually upload the salient VC to the plugins directory in your WP setup. If you need assistance with this please just add your FTP credentials into the ticket :)

Cheers

Hi, does Salient template is already compatible with wordpress 4.5.3. Thx

Hey, yes – but you’ll need to be using the current versions of Salient (7.0.9) and the Salient Visual Composer (4.11.2) as well :)

Is it possible to have the overlay text change on it own without clicking a button(or even with clicking the button) but keeping same video? Cause it looks crappy how the video restarts every time the text changes. You can checkout our site http://textreminderusa.com/

Hey,

Currently this isn’t what the Nectar Slider is meant to be used for – each slide is also intended to have a new BG, having the BG remain the same while changing the text would require custom development or the use of plugin as of now

Cheers
