Hi there, we are getting the same error message as okaymatt on your support site. Any idea when this will be working again?
Hey, it should be working now 
Hi ThemeNectar,
Any update with this problem from last week? I shared the URL with you via private message but no response yet…...
“On the Product-Landing theme I’m experiencing bugs when trying to upload self-hosted videos in a portfolio. When I click on ‘watch video’ the video appears but doesn’t play unless i clicked it, and there are no play control options, no play button, no time slider, no play full-screen etc, just a black screen. Suggestions?”
Hey Mark, I’ll take another look for your email now
Cheers
Some reason it’s not letting us submit a ticket on your support page, we receive the error “Sorry, that purchase code doesn’t seem to be valid.” is this an issue on Envatos end?
Hey okaymatt,
It should be working again now – let me know if you’re still having issues
Cheers
Hi, I was wondering whether its possible to add a secondary menu aligned to the right of the main menu i.e. next to the search button. Also is possible to have the search button as text instead of icon or either have the aligned right menu linking to the search function?
Lastly, is it possible to have the headers shadow/border disappear only when the menu is at the top of the page and then reappear when the page menu isn’t scrolled to the top?

Hey DivBay,
1. As of now these items would require some custom development – namely modding to the header.php file
3. Add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:
#header-outer:not(.small-nav) {
box-shadow: none!important;
}
Cheers
Is there a way that I can run a slider on a page that shows a series of posts of a certain category? I know that I can use a Home Slider or Nectar slider to add slides to a page. Im jus tlooking for that look and feel – but have it just read from a specific category (like Featured) to run those as posts… something similar to http://www.aboutrc.com/
Great theme! RC
Thanks RC!
The recents posts element offers a slider style – which is similar to the Nectar Slider Here’s an example http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-corporate/news
Cheers
Hello, I wanted to find out if its possible to have the mouse-based parallax layers in a slider?
Hey Ipeleng,
As of now it’s not possible to use it in a Nectar Slider, but you could use it inside of fullscreen row setup, which slides vertically
Cheers
Hi, Do I really have to upload 1 image at a time to use the portfolio feature? Is there a way to display a gallery like the one you see on this landing page www.studiolaflamme.com using salient? Do I have to buy another plug in, or is there a way to do this now. Is there a work around to uploading each image to a poortfolio?
Hey silverlithomes,
The Salient Visual Composer Image Gallery element can use used to bulk upload and the portfolio style is available in that
Also if you want a spaced gallery such as the one shown on the demo landing ( http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-promo/ ) similar to the one you’ve linked – it’s also available in the image gallery element. It’s called the “Touch enabled and spaced” gallery type
Cheers
HI Thanks for the clarification. If you look here,
http://www.laflammephoto.com/weddings/I inserted the Gallery element but for some reason it’s not appearing..?
Hey, do you still have the image gallery element active on that URL? I’m currently only seeing the portfolio element
Hi, You must have commented on this in the past, but I can´t find any info, I have the impression that the header grows to infinity and there are no limits on the site. It’s funny because the rest of the page has a limit when making the window wider, but not the header. Do you see what I mean?Here is my URL: www.aplaceforwords.ink
Hey hugobertrand,
The header can either be full width or contained, the option to change that exists in the Salient options panel > header navigation > layout related tab
Cheers
This template rocks! Quick question. How can I add a short code for a button or ad text above the “Menu” bar. What file do I need to edit to add a button code or text to that area? I want to add a clickable Book Now link to clients can see it on all pages and in a mobile view.
I appreciate the help!
Hey djlasvegas!
You’d need to edit the header.php file in regards
Cheers
Perfect! Thanks! I was able to get the buttons up. 
Glad to hear
Hi I am feeling so frustrated. I have the Salient theme but I can’t see any widgets at all. When I switch themes I can see them but not with the Salient theme. I have BuddyPress installed, I am not sure whether the problem is related to this? Best, Nadia
Hey, are you not seeing them in the backend or the frontend? Could you please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I could take a closer look to assist? https://themenectar.ticksy.com
Is it possible to pull the two bottom hover squares and the footer from the agency demo and add them to the bottom of the service homepage?
Hey jmiller686,
Yes, that element is available to use on any demo setup. It’s Salient Visual Composer element called “Morphing Outline”
Cheers
I’m using the new owl carousel and am wondering if it is possible to edit some code to make the carousel loop? Thanks!
Hey, as of now that feature is not available yet – but when it get added to owl, i’ll update Salient to include it as well
My Visual Composer seems to be “broken.” I can’t add any rows or elements and in general the user interface is totally not what I’m used to. I’m using a Dutch-language version of wordpress 4.6 (16-08-2016 update) and I’ve updated to the latest version of the Salient Theme. What am I doing wrong? I’m getting pretty desperate…
Hey nickschoemaker,
Are you also on the current version of the Salient Visual Composer plugin (4.12)? Any older versions won’t work with WP 4.5+ If so, please verify that no third party plugins you may have active are causing the issue
Cheers
The thumbnails generated when using the “Recent Posts” feature on my homepage are blurry on both retina and non-retina screens. The thumbnails are from my featured images, which are plenty big enough. Is there a way to make them crisper? Site: http://pgrin.com/
Hey LemhiRG,
You could either change the column number to be greater than 2 – which would make the image smaller and allow it to show in better quality. Or you could edit the nectar/tinymce/nectar-processing.php file and in the nectar_recent_posts function change this
if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) { echo '<a href="' . get_permalink() . '">' . get_the_post_thumbnail($post->ID, 'portfolio-thumb', array('title' => '')) . '</a>'; } to this:
if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) { echo '<a href="' . get_permalink() . '">' . get_the_post_thumbnail($post->ID, 'full', array('title' => '')) . '</a>'; }
Cheers
Excellent, thank you! I found that bit of code in the nectar/tinymce/shortcode-processing.php in case someone in the future is referencing this solution.
Thanks again ThemeNectar!
Cheers
Hi Salient,
There seems to be a little bug with the “Centered Logo Between Menu” header layout option with “Use Transparent Header When Applicable?” option enabled.
When I selected the option initially (I was already using the transparent header option) it pushed my navigation links to the middle, under the centered logo.
After playing with it a bit, I noticed that if I moved the “Header BG Opacity” (which was originally set to 80 – under “Logo & General Styling”) to 100 and also turned off transparency, saved, reloaded the page, then set it back to 80 and turned back on transparency and saved, that I would display correctly.
Unfortunately this back and forth is required every time I add a new menu item, change my logo, or do anything at all really with the header.
Not sure if the bug is on my end, but thought I’d give you a heads up.
Keep up the awesome work!
Hey harrisdesigned,
I haven’t been able to replicate this through testing on my end – Could you please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can take a further look at the setup https://themenectar.ticksy.com

Hey guys,
Our FontAwesome icons are failing to display in every instance we’ve added them via “Add Element” -> “Nectar Elements” -> “Social Buttons”
The “Nectar Love” icon displays; but none of the social media ones do (Facebook, Twitter, Google +, LinkedIn, Pinterest).
Font-awesome icons will load if we hardcode them but we have 12+ pages built out that are using the “Nectar Elements” -> “Social Buttons” functionality and we’d really rather not have to switch every page and icon over.
Any idea how we can fix this?
A page with them not displaying: http://millatbroadway.com/villas-residence-2/(the icons should be over the social-media colored columns near the bottom of the page)
Thanks a lot!
Hey rbreton!
Have you verified that no third party plugins you have active are causing this in regards? If so, please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can take a further look at the setup https://themenectar.ticksy.com

hey there!
i worked around the last issue I had with the rogue picture that couldnt be deleted.
was wondering how to make this page with the tooltip work for a portfolio page http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-service/
any chance that’s possible?
thanks in advance
Hey rooster47,
As of now it’s only available for pages – however you could lead your portfolio item to a custom page with that active if desired by using the external project url input http://imgur.com/a/WdvA6
Cheers
thank you! it’s like you’ve thought of everything! love it!
You’re very welcome
Hi,
I’m encountering a problem with the new fullscreen row feature. Our website uses autoplaying and loopable videos instead of pictures for our team members (Harry Potter style). When I’m using the new fullscreen row feature, the videos don’t autoplay and they just appear as a still images. I have to right click on the video, to display the controls to be able to have the video play (which is not hat I want our visitors to do).
Any idea what might cause the video to not play with the fullscreen row feature on?
The working page http://tinyurl.com/h7qou9q Not autoplaying videos page http://tinyurl.com/h792bn6Hope you can help!
Cheers.
Hey Somnambulismus,
Video BGs have a known issue when using the fullscreen feature – it’s going to be sorted in the next release which will be out within a couple weeks
Cheers
Thanks for the reply, looking forward to the update then!
You’re welcome
Also, is it possible for the size to resize all row contents to show fully within the dimensions of the browser on a mobile device (so that there is no extra scrolling)?
Hey,
There’s no way that this could be achieved without custom css to target the elements and resize them according to your specific setup. If you can share your URL I could see how complicated that would be to help out
Cheers
Hi ThemeNectar.
Thank you for your continued support.
In regards to the new minimal toggle, is there anyway I can make the opened toggle close by selecting it again vs. opening another toggle to close the previous?
Hey HBHQ ,
You’d need to turn on the “Allow collapsible all” option in your toggle element http://imgur.com/a/shl0r
Cheers
