Hi,

When setting a row to fullpage it adds a page indicator (hollow circle) on the right – how can I display:none this?

Hey dessibob,

The page fullscreen rows has an option in the metabox to set the “Dot Navigation” to none

Cheers

Shoulda checked more.. Ty :)

You’re welcome :)

Hello,

I’ve purchase this theme, and have a quick question.

Is there a way to create a static navigation menu (in other words, prevent the navigation menu from floating when the page is scrolled)?

Best,

Hey marlongichie,

You can use the “hide header until needed” effect for something similar. The option is available in the Salient options panel > header nav > animation effects tab

Cheers

Is there a way to make the padding consistent on the nectar buttons? I would like the all the buttons on the below page to be the same size square with the text centered in the box. Is this possible?

Hey freshlyroastedweb, use this css :)

body.page-id-6872 .col.dark .nectar-button.see-through, body.page-id-6872 .col.dark .nectar-button.see-through-2 {
    width: 100%;
    text-align: center;
}

Cheers

not sure where the feedburner icon is for the top of the menu. i have it selected to show at the header and footer. it shows in the footer but not the header? https://www.theshatteredworld.com

Hey burmuss,

Could you please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can take a look at your settings? https://themenectar.ticksy.com

Cheers

my support has run out so i am unable to submit a ticket. i was hoping that this was an easy fix or something i may have been overlooking

Issue:

I upload an Archive Header Background Image but when i go to the archive url to check it. The changes do not take effect. I am not able to see the uploaded image.

I upload the image in the Salient settings Blog > Styling then click Save Changes. Nothing happens. Tried cleaning my browsers catch and cooking but still no luck!

I would also like to be able to put a custom background color in the back of the image.

Hey,

The snippet provided is correct if you’re supplying a BG image, if it’s not working for you I would need to see your URL to access why

Ok i see how I got confused. So you have to put the background image in order to activate the black bg color. When you take the image out it does not show the black bg. Thank you.

You’re welcome :)

I have two very small questions / issues.

1. I’m using a single page scroll. When I scroll down to the different sections (rows), the top navigation shows a line under the “home” button as well as the section I scroll down to.

2. I’m also using “toggle panels”. When I come to the page, the first one is open by default. AND, I’m unable to close all of them. One closes when the other opens, but I can’t close the one that’s open (without opening another panel).

2b. Is there a way to increaser the font size within the “panel” titles?

Thanks!

Hey atplay2,

1. Try changing the URL you’ve entered from “http://cafesan.cpdev.sudjam.com/#home” to ”#home”

2a. Make sure you uncheck the box for allow collapsible all in the toggle settings http://imgur.com/a/fL8JO

2b. Change the style from “default” to “minimal” :)

Cheers

Everything works now. I still wonder if you can make the font size larger for the toggle menus while still using the “default” style. I like the boxed accordion look.

Otherwise, all is well.

Thank you!

Hey, you could – it would just require css :)

body .toggle h3 a {
  font-size: 18px!important;
  line-height: 18px!important;
}

Cheers

Is there a way to not show any dates at all on the blog posts?

Hey, you need to remove lines 1 and 5 from that screenshot, the pre tags are not meant to be included

Ah I see ok cool thanks that worked!

Hello,

I am very interested in purchasing your theme and I have a pre-sale question.

With Salient, is it possible to create a website that is similar to this example? http://us.battle.net/wow/en/legion/

The Legion page appears very similar to Salient’s new “Page Full Screen Rows” feature, but there are some differences:

1) Is it possible to enable the vertical Dot Navigation on the side of the page without enabling full-screen rows?

2) Is it possible to have the Dot Navigation be on the left side of the site?

3) Is it possible to add extra menu items to the Dot Navigation (social media links, game logo…etc)?

4) Is it possible to add custom icons/images for each Dot Navigation item?

5) Can a video/.gif be added to the background of a row (and autoplay on page load)? And is it possible to add text, images or other elements overlaid on top of the video?

If some of the features above are not available by default, can you tell me if they are just basic custom CSS changes, or would they require heavy modifications to core files and scripts?

Thanks!

Hey KyleGL!

1. The dot navigation require the use of fullscreen rows

2. Yes, via custom css

3/4. This would require custom modding as of now

5. Yes, video BGs are supported natively for row BGs :)

Again, incredible theme. Every update is better and better. Thanks.

Thanks so much for your kind words Rofe, really glad to hear you’re enjoying the theme :)

Cheers!

Hi there,

I’ve been trying to update Wordpress and my Salient theme and I’m having issues

​When I update Salient it seems to be okay… however when I update Wordpress I seem to lose all of my styles, colours, fonts etc…. Is there a better way to do it, I’m not currently using a child theme but can I turn my theme into a child theme that im already using? Could you let me know how I can update and avoid these issues?

Hey ryanorlowski,

Updating WordPress should not cause any such issues, if there anyway you could share the URL where this is occurring or open a ticket in regards? https://themenectar.ticksy.com

Cheers

hi.. how are you? first let me say that this is a great theme..

can i change the slider to full screen just on mobile?

thanks.

Thanks innovuela!

As of now this would require either using two separate sliders (with css to hide the one not needed on desktop/mobile) or a general css override to remove the fullscreen height from taking effect on desktop

Cheers

Great themes. Any plans for a front page visual builder? Thanks :-)

Thanks watsontan! It is indeed an item on the wishlist :)

I am working with Agency template and want borders around the client logos like this (not on all sides, plz see the link) https://www.dropbox.com/home?preview=borders.jpg how to put borders like the attached image?

    border-right: 1px solid #ddd;
}
body .clients.four-cols.no-carousel > div {

Hi! Themenecter,

How can I do this with this theme? Any help will be appreciated!! Thanks in advance!

Hey again!

1. Add this as well into the custom css box:

html body .clients.four-cols.no-carousel > div:nth-child(4n+4) {
  border-right: 0!important;
}

2. Yes you can upload animated gifs to the Nectar Slider :)

Hi. I’m having trouble figuring out how to use “Image with hotspots”. It says “Choose your image that will show the hotspots. You can then click on the image in the preview area to add your hotspots in the desired locations.” But I can’t find the “preview area” where I add the actual hotspots to the image.

Is there a video tutorial?

Hey atplay2,

Are you using the latest Salient Visual Composer (4.12)? Older versions of VC won’t be able to show that element correctly

Cheers

Thanks! That was the issue. I had an old version of VC. It works well now.

This theme is amazing!

I’ve been looking everywhere and tried to search through this support forum, but am unsure how to phrase my search. How does the menu text change color when the slider image changes on http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-blog/?

Nevermind, I figured it out

Hey httdev, glad to hear you’ve sorted it :)

Responsive menu issue

did not show my menu in mobile view in the latest version (4 August 16).

Sorry, finaly, I can resolve the issue. Thanks

Hey, glad to hear you’ve sorted it :)

Hi, I am very upset at the quality of this theme. I imported the demo content and set it as my homepage but the margins/columns are all weird and the html text is showing you can see it here: http://zebo.io/ and an example here:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/ntc092i3g0ah2mk/tags%20acting%20funny%20everwhere.pptx?dl=0

Doesn’t look anything like your demo!!!!

Please issue me a refund. Thanks

Hey nkhanani,

From the looks of your screenshot you just needed to install the Salient Visual Composer. Without installing the page builder, the shortcodes that are specific to it would not be able to parse. It looks like you’ve taken care of that now though so if you have any further questions kindly let me know :)

Cheers

Hi, I’m not sure if that was the issue. I just deleted and reinstalled the theme and it looked fine then. I am still a little stuck though. I’ve used another theme with a visual composer before and it would let me change font colors and styles. Here I can’t seem to change fonts or colors of text . For example I want to change the font style of the entire block of text and the color of the subheadings “effortless growth” and “Effortless ordering” but there is no font button or color picker in the visual editor. So I tried using tags but that doesn’t seem to be working either. font color= #27CCC0 which is the default accent font. see this link:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/516w78sc0vc6lfg/how%20to%20change%20color%20of%20font.pptx?dl=0

also what are my font option and how do I vary font’s for different bodys of text?

Thanks

Hey,

The typography options are located in the Salient options panel > typography tab. For changing colors/heading in the text block please verify that you have the kitchen sink enabled, as that shows the color options and heading selects http://imgur.com/a/ITbaO

Hello, is there a way to remove the black semi transparent idle color from fancy box? Appreciate your support. Thanks

Hey :)

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

.nectar-fancy-box .box-bg:after { display: none!important; }

Cheers

Thanks !

You’re welcome :)

Hello, is there a way to possibly align the navigation menu to the left after the logo, instead of the default right? Appreciate your suggestions.

Hey jeklit,

This option is coming in the next update :)

Cheers

Sure, any firm dates to the next update?

Nothing concrete, probably in about 1-2weeks

Hey,

Im having problems with the my sites “jetpack”. Its says the following :

“Your theme (Salient) contains outdated copies of some WooCommerce template files. These files may need updating to ensure they are compatible with the current version of WooCommerce. You can see which files are affected from the system status page. If in doubt, check with the author of the theme”

My website is not displaying properly because of it, and the jetpack does not work. How do I fix this problem.

Thanks

Hey,

I just updated salient to 7.5.02, and the problem seems to be solved but now the social media icons are messed up. They are displaying vertically over the whole site. Cant seem to figure out how to get rid of them.

url : varanno.com

Hey, i’m currently not seeing that occur, have you tried to clear your cache since the update?
