Is there a way I can set a maximum size to fonts on mobile? On desktop my fonts are ok, but on mobile they are too big to fit the screen.
Hey paolapasolini, could you please share your URL in regards? I’d be glad to assist 
Cheers
Hi how would I go about installing a custom font (@font-face) to use on the front end? (Love the theme by the way!)
Hey!
have you looked into using a plugin such as this instead of manually doing it? https://wordpress.org/plugins/use-any-font/
The css for the font face could live in the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel though.
Cheers
Thanks for the reply – I’ve managed to work h1, h2.. and p, can you point me towards the css tags I should be looking for to change navigation and page header fonts?
Hey again, use these:
body header#top nav > ul > li > a
html body #page-header-bg h1, html body .row .col.section-title h1, .nectar-box-roll .overlaid-content h1
Hello I like this (Salient) theme; and am thinking of purchasing it. But I want to first confirm the following: 1) Can I create square thumbnails.. like here http://www.lionelsmit.co.za/catalogues/ .. and how did this person achieve this? As in, what feature did they use, ie. grid? Gallery ? 2) Also, on that homepage (http://www.lionelsmit.co.za/), is there a way to make it such that the white bar (with the logo and links at the top) is always visible.. ie not just after you scroll down as it is there..? That is NOT my site BTW.. just one that I like. Thanks
Hey theexpert1,
1. They’re using the image with animation shortcode in columns – however the image gallery could handle this as well
2. Yes, you can have the header navigation always visible if desired
Cheers
Very cool! Thanks!
You’re welcome 
Hi ThemeNectar, your Theme is REALLY BEAUTIFUL and very elegant and cool! Really LOVING it! But pretty please.. I need some help – and hope I’m not asking too much! here goes:
1 I would like the layout of my single portfolio page to be more like this one: http://www.lionelsmit.co.za/portfolio/obscura-study-5-size-56-x-76-5cm-image-size-46-x-64/
NOTE how the share icons (on hover they show the actual social colours of those; and not just one uniform accent colour. They are also all immediately visible (ie not first hidden, then revealed from under the general share icon). I REALLY would prefer that.. ie – they way they are all immediately visible, please. How can these be done?
Also, importantly, the elements (ie the title, text and those share icons are on the right of the image, not on the top. I think that really works for me in that it leaving a nice clean, smaller gap at the top above the image – I guess the arrows and icon are fine where they are. At the moment this is what mine looks like http://www.orimoloye.com/portfolio/bosham-harbour/ (user name: themenectar PWD: salient
just want to restrict access while I work on the site).
2. It seems like you can only add one portfolio image at a time? I have LOADS to do.. and was just wondering if there can be a faster way – but keeping the format as it is (not using gallery).
3. I would like the word “Portfolio” displayed on the portfolio index page(s) to read as “Gallery” – how/where do I edit this please?
Once again, please bear with me on this! This is a VERY cool theme indeed .. and I hope you can help me sort these few items out. Thank you VERY much and hope to hear from you real soon
thought I should post an illustration, so that you can really see what I am trying to describe – in point 1 above. See http://www.orimoloye.com/illustrate.jpg – the parts I really would like! 1) Title is not there – so the space up there is clean and smaller – it just works better for me 
2) The title and details are moved here – I prefer this
3) Note the social share buttons are exposed – not hidden by default. I prefer this very much.
Hope I have not asked too much ! 
Hey,
1. Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
#sidebar #project-meta ul li.meta-share-count .nectar-social a, .single [data-tab-pos="fullwidth"] #single-meta ul li.meta-share-count .nectar-social a {
left: 0!important;
opacity: 1!important;
}
#project-meta ul li.meta-share-count .nectar-social {
display: block!important;
opacity: 1!important;
left: 0!important;
}
#project-meta ul li > a {
display: none!important;
}
#sidebar div ul li:last-child {
display: none!important;
}
Moving the title wouldn’t be possible with css, you’d need to mod the single-portfolio.php file in regards.
2. If you want to use the masonry portfolio layout, each project needs to be created separately – if you just need a gallery you can use the image gallery element with the portfolio styling
3. You can change this from the Salient options panel > portfolio tab 
Cheers
Thank you VERY much ThemeNectar 
Please I need help on the following 
1) "Meta below thumb w/ links on hover" - I want to remove title, date and love icon (ie the entire row) from below the thumbnail. Also, the links; 'View Larger' and 'More Details', how can I change their bg colour?
2) "Meta on hover + entire thumb link" - I want to be able to hide the Title and/or date that shows on hover.
3) "Meta from bottom on hover + entire thumb link" - I want to be able to hide the Title and/or date that shows on hover.
One last question, How can I change the bg colour of the light box?
I am using Salient with the Ascend skin.
Thank you so much in advance for your precious response!
Hi, thanks for all your recent responses. I’ve been able to write some custom CSS to hide the meta underneath the thumbnails (when using “Meta below thumb w/ links on hover”). But the problem now as you can see from my link here(http://www.orimoloye.com/temp1/), there is now a space underneath – which I don’t really want. I want the interface to look more like this http://www.orimoloye.com/archive-90s/, which of course is done by selecting “Meta on hover + entire thumb link”. Note that the spacing is exactly the same on the sides and on the bottom. Please let me know what I can do to get rid of that space under the first one – so that the spacing can bee even all round. I will really appreciate this. Another thing I was wondering is, is it possible to change the colour of the navigation/info on the ‘div.pp_overlay’ the light box? I ask because I am considering making the div.pp_overlay a very light colour – so that the navigation/info on it can be clearly visible (against a light background), if that make’s sense.
Please, I also still need help on the following: 1) “Meta on hover + entire thumb link” – I want to be able to hide the Title and/or date that shows on hover. 2) “Meta from bottom on hover + entire thumb link” – I want to be able to hide the Title and/or date that shows on hover.
Thank you VERY much 
Hey again 
1. add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:
.portfolio-items .col .work-item {
margin-bottom: 0!important;
}
2.
.portfolio-items .col .work-item h3 {
display: none!important;
}
The date can be turned off in the Salient options panel > portfolio tab
Cheers
THANK YOU! 
You’re welcome 
Dear Themenectar Please have a look at this: This is One Category http://www.orimoloye.com/england-impressions-in-oil/ Note the order of the images. I have noticed that if you click “View Larger” and then use the previous and next links (i.e. in the light box overlay that opens), the order of the images is fine. But when using Previous and Next on the Single Portfolio Page (http://www.orimoloye.com/portfolio/clare-college-bridge-cambridge-2/), also open by clicking on “More Details” on each thumbnail, the order of the images is completely haphazard and something is clearly wrong. Please kindly help; how do I correct this? I have “Single Project Nav Arrows Limited To Same Category” checked in options already.
A second thing I had been curious about is the grid shortcut (i.e the four little boxes in the top left corner above the image) - the top two boxes are clean and crisp. But the lower two are slightly blurred. How can I correct this.. or where is this graphic stored? Thanks in advance
Hey,
1. Are you using any plugins to handle the ordering of your items?
2. It’s not an image but rather a font icon added via font face – if you play with the font size you may be able to change the quality. Add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:
body #portfolio-nav #all-items a i {
font-size: 314px!important;
}
Cheers
Hey, thanks a lot for your reply; I’m not using any plugins to order my items at all
Please open a ticket with your admin credentials and let me know the ticket ID here once you’ve done so so I can take a look

Hi and Thanks! I have done so (Private Ticket #854743)
Hi,
I am using agency theme, I have a question about video visibility on mobile which is not showing when i see on my android and iphone both
here is one of the example: http://impfm.com/portfolio/dogs-out-of-this-world-tv-series/
if you will see this on desktop , you will observe a video of dog working fine but when i open it on my mobile, this is not showing
can you please suggest me a solution to this
Hey IMPFM,
Video backgrounds are disabled on mobile by default because autoplaying is not possible. The “Video Preview Image” will be shown instead so make sure you have one set 
Cheers
Having issues with Google Maps saying that something went wrong and to look at my Javascript source… But I followed these troubleshooting steps from the author:
Hey,
The issue only applies to new domains where the maps script hasn’t been prior to June 22 of this year. This article explains it: https://www.latecnosfera.com/2016/06/google-maps-api-error-missing-keymap-error-solved.html If you’re on a current version of Salient you can add the key into the map.js file in the js folder. The line to mod should be near line 589 of the file -
$.getScript(‘https://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false&callback=mapAPI_Loaded');
will become
$.getScript(‘https://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false&key=APIKEYHERE&callback=mapAPI_Loaded');
The next update will add an input for users to add the key in the admin panel
Cheers
Hey iamjeffsmith, could you please share your URL in regards so I can see why adding that key didn’t work for you?
Cheers
I am adding team members to a page, and using two columns. Two members are displayed side by side. One member’s bio is longer than the other, so visually I would like to create spacing on the person with shorter bio so that the line at the end of the bio aligns with the line of the member with long bio. (I am using meta below style)
I have checked equal column heights box, also tried adding
tags for shorter bio, didn’t work. any other suggestions?
Hey geekdot,
Could you kindly share your URL in regards so I can assist?
Cheers
Hi, i am looking to purchase this theme again for another site. I have one small questions.
Do you have a single page that outlines ALL of the panels / components available… so that you can view all options on one loooong page?
Hey oo7ml,
Unfortunately there is no such demo page – If you have a license for the theme already you should be able to download the current version to view the admin panel if you’re curious about anything specific
Cheers
Ok, i think a components page could sell this theme even further 
Similar to bootstrap – http://getbootstrap.com/components/
I’ve noted it for the wishlist 
Hey thanks for a great theme!
I have a pair of questions:
1. How can I add a menu to the sticky sidebar of the project view? I have tried with the text editor through shortcodes, but I dont see that option
2. How can I put a color overlay in Page/Project header to make the title more legible?
Im guessing both things can be done with CSS, but I havent had lick with other posts in the comments. I appreciate the help!
Hey rsmsantiago!
1. What kind of menu are you referring to? You can have standard html anchor links in there if you desire
2. Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
.single-portfolio .page-header-bg-image:after {
display: block;
position: absolute;
content: ' ';
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.5);
top: 0;
left: 0;
}
Cheers
Thanks for the help.
1. I was thinking of a menu that you can edit visually under Menu (like a widget), but if that’s not possible, anchor links will do it. Just a question, how can I remove the white space taken up by the Heart liking system that i removed in the sidebar here (and in any portfolio single page)? http://aboutdanapoint.com/portfolio/business-stories/ . Also, could you please help me put a full width box with a title within that sidebar at the top so that it looks like the one here? http://danapointtest.businesscatalyst.com/business-stories.html
2. This works perfectly for the portfolio pages! What would be the target to do the same thing in the regular Pages?
Once again, thanks for the help!
Hey again!
1. Add this into the css box:
#project-meta .project-sharing {
display: none!important;
}
2. You could change the snippet to:
.page-header-bg-image:after {
display: block;
position: absolute;
content: ' ';
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.5);
top: 0;
left: 0;
}
Cheers
Please see here: http://www.stonemasons.co.za/shop/ – we have a shopping cart but when you go to checkout it does not remeber when you are logged in so it does not show the shipping method unless you type in the address, which you have to do everytime you add a new product? Any advice?
Hey gustav939,
Is this only happening when Salient is your active theme? If so please open a ticket in regards https://themenectar.ticksy.com
Cheers
Hi,
Love the theme! I’m trying to edit the size of the author/vocation on the testimonials slider without much luck – any help?
Hey tahtikorpela, glad to hear 
I could assist with the css – could you share your URL so I can see your current settings?
Cheers
Sure thing, thank you! It’s stylesavvy.ie 
I’m looking to make the font underneath the quote in the testimonial larger (name/job) – also, is there a way to create a border on the tabbed content shortcode? (stylesavvy.ie/stylesavvy-for-business)
Hey! Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
body .testimonial_slider[data-style="multiple_visible"] blockquote span.title {
font-size: 18px!important;
}
body .wpb_wrapper.tabbed {
border: 2px solid #000;
padding: 22px;
}
Cheers
Awesome!! Thankyou so much. I hope you don’t mind another question: when I open the site on mobile, it just comes up as code.. is there something really obvious I’m missing?!
Hey! Have you verified that no plugins you’re using is causing that? If you have something adding a mobile theme, thus disabling Salient, this would indeed occur
Cheers
Hi, great theme and features. Is it possible to add the slide caption to under the slide image using the nectar slider? I don’t want the caption text to overlay the image but just go underneath.
Thanks
Hey jsgilly20! There’s a “bottom” vertical positioning available in the slider – if you need it to go further down please share your URL so I can take a look and assist 
Hi, I selected bottom and all it does is seem to slightly offset it down a little bit – but not to the bottom. Url I’m working on is http://new.tedtodd.co.uk – here is a picture of what I am trying to achieve – http://imgur.com/a/3ZpnE
Thanks!
Hey, add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
body .swiper-slide .content {
top: auto!important;
bottom: 10%!important;
}
.swiper-slide .container {
position: static!important;
}

Hi, since the last update of Woocommerce and Salient, I dont have any Proceed to checkout button anymore ! Any idea ? (I don’t use page transitions)
Hey Mat_,
Are you using Salient 7.0.9? That’s the only version that is compatible with the latest WooCommerce
Cheers
Hello. I am having trouble getting Visual Composer to work. I have the latest version of WP and Salient and have all of my Plugins deactivated.
Hey CJBergmen,
Is your Salient VC v4.11.2? If so please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials https://themenectar.ticksy.com
Cheers
It says I have Salient 5.0. Not sure where to check to see specifically on the visual composer version
Hey again, the current Salient (v7.0.9) is the only version that includes the current VC which is compatible with WP 4.5+
Cheers
Hi!
Fantastic theme! Is it possible to get a new font awesome 4.6 version? its current ver 4.2. I need new icon set.
Thank u very much in advance!
Hey ahmetbintas!
It’s coming in the next release 
Cheers
Hi, i’m downloading next release but not inculude new font awesome when u inculude new icon set from theme.
Thank u very much in advance!
Hey, sorry about that – it’ll definitely be in the upcoming release (about 2 weeks away)
Hi guys,
Quick question.
Is it possible to have the social media icons in the main navigation (I think I saw someone else ask this, for you to say that it would be coming in the next update, i cannot see this yet though)
Thanks
Hey,
It still is coming in the next feature based update (which will be out very soon) – the updates that have come out since I initially made that response have been bugfix only 
Cheers
Is there a temporary fix for this until the feature is live? http://www.joshuasimons.co.uk
Hey, unfortunately not without modding the header.php file
Hi,
I’ve just installed the latest version, but Salient panel is not showing anything. I have to click the Classic version to see the content of the page. Normally, when I updated the Salient Visual Composer, the problem would be solved, but this time, it was no good. Do you have any idea how to fix this?
Best, Furkan
Hey Furkan,
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,
You were right. However, I had to uninstall the previous version before installing the new one. Clicking update from Themes > Install Plugins doesn’t work.
Best, Furkan
Glad you got it sorted 
Logo inside the top navigation menu?
Hi guys,
Is this possible? I like to use it on a website for a client and I was wondering if we can make this?
Thank you!
Ivan
Hey Ivan 
Are you referring to adding it into a regular submenu or the off canvas navigation menu?
Cheers
Something like this for example :
http://cdn.elegantthemes.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/navigation-inline-logo.jpgCheers
An other example :
http://www.pootlepress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/011-e1397142920281.jpgHey,
That option is coming in the next update – it will be out in a few days
Cheers
You are the best! Theme Nectar and Salient Rocks the world!
Cheers,
Ivan

Last question: I don’t want a top level navigation. So, when the site if viewed on desktop/laptop, the logo is centered. But, on a smartphone, the empty hamper appears. How do I maintain the centered logo without the hamburger on mobile? www.joshua-butler.com Thanks!
hamper means hamburger
Hey joshuabbutler!
Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
@media only screen and (max-width: 1000px) and (min-width: 1px) {
body header#top #toggle-nav {
display: none!important;
}
header#top #logo img {
display: inline-block;
}
body header#top .col.span_3 {
width: 100%!important;
}
}
Cheers
Cool really appreciate it. Doesn’t seem to work though. Just really not sure if I want the top nav. I like the logo centered.
Hey, have you removed the css? Currently i’m not seeing it applied to your site
It should be there. I re-added it, but the hamburger icon remains and the logo isn’t centered.
Hey, you need to remove the pre tags that got pasted into your css box when you added the snippet 
hmmm… still doesn’t seem to work. Maybe I should just have top nav. was going to use the slide up nav instead. But, the reason I didn’t want the top right nav was because I could get even spacing to the left, top and bottom of the logo. I’ll have to think on it. Thanks!
Interesting – well let me know if you still want to proceed and I can take a further look 
I think I would like to give a shot to having no hamburger icon on smartphone. If that is possible. I basically want a one pager site where I can use the slide up subnav for anchor points. Thanks, let me know.
Hey,
Could you please open a ticket in regards so I can take a further look why the snippet I provided didn’t take effect https://themenectar.ticksy.com
Cheers
Does salient support wordpress 4.5.3 ? Because I experience error while installing.
Hey wlan888, yes 4.5.3 is indeed compatible. What is the error you’re receiving?
Cheers
Hi Great theme!
Can you tell me if the PSD files are available to purchase as well?
Hey LionDevelopment,
Unfortunately there’s no PSD’s included because there’s no images used in the design elements. If you needed a PSD for mocking up, a screenshot would be almost as useful.
