Hi, where do I can the text “Portfolio Item” that is under the page title to “Message” on the link below?
http://brian.aclz.org/?s=parablesHey freshlyroastedweb,
You could edit that in the search.php file located in the root of the theme directory
Cheers
- 1. I’m trying to Reinitialize the Portfolio after the page starts, because at some resolutions the css is different and it shatters(live width <1300 and <1000 etc).If the window is resized its ok but i want it to load perfectly.
- 2. On services page ( http://ixorvfx.com/wp/?page_id=7134 ) , i wanted to have each row have opposite direction text and image (right , left , etc) but at low resolutions (width <1000) to change some of them so ALL of them to be like : Image , text Image ,text etc. You had suggested custom code and i did, i have some of them now duplicated and only shown depending on the Screen res,while hidden on the other so they switch(with the responsive options ‘hide on device’). The problem is that the images not shown when the page loads, after the resize they are empty. Anything to help me load them properly?
- 3. The 3rd row , 3DServices & Virtual Effects , shatters at some resolutions(because of the padding almost 6%) to be centered at the middle of the box.. Any ideas?
Hey refuseresist1989!
1. You could use this in the init.js file located in the js folder
$(window).load(function(){
$(window).trigger('resize');
});
Make sure to add that after the jQuery ready function jQuery(document).ready(function($){
Near line 44
2. Try adding this into the custom css box:
.nectar-slider-loading {
display: none!important;
}
3. Could you please provide a screenshot showing what you’re referring to?
Cheers
- 1. I implemented the code as you suggested at the bottom of load function so it triggers last, but it doesn’t work properly.. http://ixorvfx.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/Js-Reinit.png
- 2. The problem with the blank images is now fixed, thanks !
- 3.At 1170 – 1000px window resolution , the rows leave a blank space so the text can be contained… http://ixorvfx.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/1000-1170px-Shatter.png
- The other thing is that for 10 pixels (990 – 1000) [NOTE: 1000px is the border between 2 Objects(Image + Text ) at the same row and the Image , Text, Image ,Text etc] the Rows change order, Although I have set from the responsiveness options at the rows to be hidden at http://ixorvfx.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/10-pixels-Shatter.png
Hey,
1. did you add/edit a snippet in the responsive.css to be this?
.row.portfolio-items.masonry-items .col.regular.element.animated-in {
width: 33.33%!important;
margin: 0% !important;
}
If so, it should instead be
.row.portfolio-items.masonry-items .col.regular.element {
width: 33.33%!important;
margin: 0% !important;
}
removing the .animated-in will remove the need to mess with the JS at all.
3. Use this css:
@media only screen and (max-width: 1200px) and (min-width:1000px) {
body .full-width-content.vc_row-fluid .ServiceDivContainer {
padding: 2%!important;
}
}
4. I’ve noted to investigate why this would be occurring further
@media only screen and (max-width: 899px)
to not apply.. when i resize to 809px the attributes stop changing (Margin, Visibility)and my max width css magically appears.. any tweak for the js?
Can I use an animated .gif as the background image of a row?
Hey paulettevallad,
Yes you can

Can I use this Theme for a crowdfunding site?? or what else do I need?
Hey chekovalencia,
You would need a plugin to add crowdfunding functionality as that’s not built in by default
Cheers
This does not appear to be a WXR file, missing/invalid WXR version number. I get this message when I try to install theme.
Hey digtech, have you checked this resource in regards? https://help.market.envato.com/hc/en-us/articles/202821510?_ga=1.172874794.883167426.1465303858
Since i updated to WordPress 4.6.1 i see a page full of warnings every time i do an update to a page or slide.
The update do work, and the warning is in the backend only. If i go back every thing is fine.
The warning is: “Warning: in_array() expects parameter 2 to be array, string given in /home/asunqro/public_html/wp-content/plugins/download-media-library/download-media-library-admin.php on line 74”
The warning is repeated many times and other than that the page is white.
I have Salient 7.5.02 by the way…
Hey cpvicent,
This isn’t a known issue – Have you verified this only occurs when Salient is your active theme?
Cheers
Right, sorry it was a plugin. Thanks anyway.
No worries, cheers
Hi how can I turn off the like/love buttons on the blog?
Hey,
Add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:
.nectar-love-wrap {
display: none!important;
}
Cheers
That did not work http://sustainablespi.com/?p=6280
Hey, I assumed you were referring to the main blog page, not the single post. Use this instead:
body .sharing-default-minimal .n-shortcode {
display: none!important;
}
Both the single post and the main blog page still have like buttons. Neither code worked.
It seems you’ve accidentally pasted the pre tags in with the snippet, delete those and the css will be able to take effect
Hi there,
I love your theme!
I have a few questions about the canvas BK particles 1. I’ve tried uploading an image behind the particles setting up first the background and then the HTML5. As soon as I do that, I can’t see the particles, only the text. How can I fix it? 2. Any chance I can make the colors of the particles go from one to another? Let’s sat from pink to blue? I know how to do it CSS, I just can’t find the class or div for the particles 3. Where do I change the font and size of the text that shows up with the particles?
Thank you for you assistance!
Hey KarenZack!
1.Could you kindly share your URL so I could take a further look?
2. Please see this tutorial in regards https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SrIlw4-brCg
3. It’s controlled from the page header field in the Salient options panel > typography tab
Cheers
Hi Nectar,
Thank you for your reply!
1. Currently the site is local so unfortunately I can’t send you a URL. If I wont manage to fix it, I will let you know once it’s live.
2. Thank you for the territorial. I’ve watched it but I’m actually trying to do something like this:
.nectar-particles {
color: linear-gradient(4deg, rgba(57,188,235,1) 0%, rgba(244,42,166,1) 100%);
}
But I guess I’m missing something as it’s not working for me…Any suggestions?
3. THANK YOU!
Hi Nectar,
I can’t seem to understand why the particles don’t show up on the image. This is the URL: www.trafficbox.co.il/
Thanks!
Hi Nectar,
I finally got the particles to work on the image – so you can ignore my last reply – sorry!
I guess now I just need to find out how to make this work: .nectar-particles { color: linear-gradient(4deg, rgba(57,188,235,1) 0%, rgba(244,42,166,1) 100%); }
Hey, if you’re trying to set the color of each particle as a gradient this would require javascript modding as the particles are created via canvas
I’ll try it out, thank you!
One more thing, I did get the particles to work with an image though if I choose to use the box roll header, it doesn’t work anymore… How can I fix it? The code I used to get it working in the first place is: #page-header-bg .canvas-bg { z-index: 100!important; }
Could you please share the URL in regards where you’re having the issue?
Is it possible to mix the main menu (on the right) on this page: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-product/ with the submenu of this: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-corporate/about/ ?
Hey HekkeySE,
Yes – you can choose to have an off canvas menu for your main nav as well as use the page submenu element if desired
Cheers
Hi TN,
Two questions;
1) Is there any reason for the “Header Inherit Row Color” option not working?
2) Is there an option to have different scrolling options?
I’d love to scroll per row, so they become visible as they should be, not half one row, and half of another row.
Please refer to this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0qH02aQDA2Q) to see an example of what I mean.
Hey hookieoalo,
1. Please share your URL in regards so I can see why that option isn’t working for you
2. Having the background set to fixed instead of the regular parallax would require the use of this css
.wpb_row .row-bg, .full-width-section .row-bg {
background-attachment: fixed;
}
Cheers

Hey code749, glad to hear you’ve sorted it
Can you please confirm
It seems that when you’ve got the option selected in Salient for woocommerce to create the image zoom / hover affect it then won’t click and open to the large prettyPhoto slider.
Single Product Gallery Type [tick] Gallery slider with zoom on Hover
Default lightbox functionalityIf you select default lightbox then you can get the click and then slider option to flick through the photos but then then you lose the thumbnail slider.
Anyway way to use the gallery slider and have the zoom on hover plus the click lightbox functionality?
Hey byronjt,
Unfortunately as of now it’s one or the other since the gallery slider zoom offers the full image already shown on hover there’s no lightbox click with it
Cheers
When I browse my site, the POST/GET button of my gravity forms form does not respond from my mobile browser with full screen rows. If I request the desktop site, the form will properly POST/GET.
This only happens if full screen rows are activated for the page. You can see this at http://www.orangecountycounseling.com . Just try click the “Next” button from a mobile browser. Thanks!
Never mind. It still seems a bug, but I remove full screen rows. They just are too confusing on mobile for my users anyway. Thanks though.
Hey,
There’s an option coming in the next update to disable the page full screen rows on mobile only

Hello,
I’ve purchased this plugin, and would like to use my own form styling.
However, I don’t see an option to do this anywhere.
Please advise.
Best,
Hey marlongichie,
You’d need to remove the relevant section from the style.css file – if you do a search for “General Form Styles” you’ll end up at the right location. Also ensure you don’t have any fancy form styling enabled in the Salient options panel > forms styling tab
Cheers
I’m trying to create an image slider using Nectar Slider, but am unable to upload any images. The site just stalls when I attempt to upload an image. I’m running the Salient theme on WP 4.6.1. The images are small (less than 100KB). Any ideas what might be causing this issue? Thanks!
Hey kga1978!
Have you verified that no third party plugins you may have active could be causing it? Since there’s no known issue like that have you also tried to reach out to your hosting company in regards to see if they could shed some light?
Cheers
The only plugins that I have activated are BackWPup, Salient Visual Composer and WP-Sweep. None of these should interfere with Nectar Slider. I’m having the same issue with another website – andersen-lab.org. I basically can’t upload any images, whether I try to do it as a Nectar Slider or Single Image. My hosting is through HostGator.
Those should be fine, have you checked with your hosting provider to see if they could analyze the issue further?
Hi, I was wondering how I can change the recent project widget. I would like the recent projects widget to display the same way I have the projects displayed on the main projects page.
Below is the main projects page: http://brian.aclz.org/messages/You can see that I used some custom CSS you gave me to change the hover effect to say “Watch Message” and I also have the message title and date below the main image.
Below is the link to the recent projects widget: (The widget is at the bottom of the page) http://brian.aclz.org/I would like these items to be displayed the same way as the main projects page. I would like “Watch Message” to show when hovered over and also have the title and date show below the main image. I have selected “meta below thumb w/ links on hover” but it isnt showing.
Thanks in advance, you guys are awesome!
Hey freshlyroastedweb!
It seems that you have the row holding the recent posts element set to light text – change that back to dark and the text should appear
As for editing what the button says, you’ll need to edit the nectar/tinymce/shortcode-processing.php file at the nectar_recent_projects function
Cheers
Hello,
a quick one, some pages i create has the widget area in footer. how do i remove it. is there an option or I have to insert a code anywhere.
Thanks in advance.
Hey 190degrees,
In the Salient options panel > footer tab there’s an option to disable the footer area if desired
Cheers
The Nectar Slider’s default heading is h2. I wanted to change that to h1.
So I went to Nectar Slider > Edit Slide and TypedCreative heading goes here
in the Heading section so it can be H1 instead of h2. That solved it for me, however, the problem is it leaves and empty h2 tag in there as you can see in this screenshot. I want to get read of that and have clean code without any empty unnecessary tags in the code. http://imgur.com/a/mv0Yk Another thing I would like to do is make the mobile navigation text smaller. It is too big as you can see here. http://imgur.com/a/VuajXHey seseskiz,
Instead of doing that you could edit the functions.php file at this line:
if(!empty($slide_title)) { $slider .= '<h2>'.$slide_title.'</h2>'; }
Cheers
Thank you… I will try that. What about the Mobile Navigation Text? I would like to make the links a bit smaller and add top and bottom padding to give more separation.
I did try that but there are a few issues with it.
1. The mobile css is gone. Can you send me the new css rules for h1 on slider banner? Or show me where to edit them on the style.css files. There are too many heading 1 and 2 css rules I do not want to edit the wrong one. I only need the one that targets the Salient banner slider.
2. The content under it (paragraph and buttons) is not visible when the page is loaded unless you scroll down. When you scroll down then they show. This was not the case with the h2 in the functions.php file. After changing it to h1I get this issue. Would you please try that on your end and see where the issue is?
Hey again,
1.
@media only screen and (max-width: 690px) {
.swiper-slide h1 {
font-size: 20px!important;
}
}
2. Add this into the custom css box:
body .swiper-slide .content p, body .swiper-slide .content h1, body .swiper-slide .content .buttons {
opacity: 1;
}
HI again,
1. Fixed!
2. Still have issues. Please see this screenshot. http://imgur.com/a/pyn0X When the page loads there are huge gaps between the heading, paragraph and the buttons. However, when i scroll down, then back up It gets fixed. See it here. http://imgur.com/a/pAPkh When I reload the page I have the same gap until i scroll down then up again.
Hey,
Also add this in:
body .swiper-slide .content p, body .swiper-slide .content h2, body .swiper-slide .content .buttons {
padding-top: 0;
}
That code did not work. The code you sent me was for h2. However, i changed it to h1 and it still did not work.
The second selector in that group doesn’t matter, the other two are what’s important – if that’s not working for you, please wait until you get the site online so I can visit to inspect further
I have fixed it and here is the code for it.
body .swiper-slide .content p { padding-top: 0;}
thanks
Glad to hear
Hi,
After updating to the new version the functions.php file changed and my above settings got deleted. I went back to your instructions to edit the fuctions.php file but your I can not find the code if(!empty($slide_title)) { $slider .= ‘
’.$slide_title.’
’; } in the new functions.php file. Did the coding in the fuctions.php file change? If yes, then how can I change the heading 2 to heading 1 for the salient slider.And in your next updated, can you please consider putting heading selection options for the salient slider. In many cases when a slider is being used it makes sense to use a heading 1 instead of heading 2. Having the options to pick the heading you like would be great.
Also, I have greatly appreciate that you took the time to fix the wc3 validation issues. Is there a way to fix these 2 too? https://validator.w3.org/nu/?doc=http%3A%2F%2Fthemenectar.com%2Fdemo%2Fsalient-corporate%2F
Thank you
The full code did not show here, but if you go up you will see the code you sent me to change in the functions.php
Hey, the Nectar Slider heading tag is still located in the functions.php file – if you run a file search for the string ‘
’.$slide_title.’
’ you will be able to find itand I’ve noted to also sort the validation error that occurs when using multiple nectar blog elements on the same page
Hey there, I just recently started using the theme and I really love it. So far, everything worked fine but I don’t understand the portfolio. Or at least I think I am overseeing something which I want to work. Basically I want “folders” showing up first (with a sample picture) and on clicking it, I want the portfolio to open up and show a simple galery, like the one I can add via shortcode in the Visual Composer. How can this be achieved? My portfolio consists of “Architecture” , “Food”, “Product” and “Modeling” and I want these to be the main categories showing up when a visitor clicks on the portfolio menu item. After that, it should open to show all images of the category. Basically like in here: http://photoagencydubai.com/portfolio/
Hey wolfpackdesigns!
One way you could accomplish this would be to have all of your categories as portfolio items. These would then display in a grid like in the URL you’ve shared. Within each of the projects you could then use a visual composer image gallery element set to image grid style Also make sure you have the “Full Width Portfolio Item Layout” enabled for each of your projects to get rid of the default sidebar that normally shows within projects
Cheers
Hey, thank you for your detailed answer! This is exactly what I tried since the beginning, before asking. However, whenever I click the category upon creating it (the portfolio item), the thumbnail picture opens in a lightbox and I don’t get to see the image gallery created with the Visual Composer. Any idea why that is so? cheers!
Update: This is weird. The VC Image Gallery seems to only work, if I enable the Custom Content Grid Item. But by doing so, the thumbnail disappears/is invisible
Hey!
If your portfolio item click is opening a lightbox instead of going to the single project page then you most likely need to edit the portfolio element in visual composer and turn off the “lightbox only” option http://imgur.com/a/RYbpQ
That was it! Thanks for your brilliantly detailed answer! The last thing I need to fix are the different sizes of the images. Is there a recommended size? I need the masonry style, so images in portrait format won’t get cropped. As of right now, the spaces between the images vary a lot
Also: How can I define the link of the portfolio-navigation? I like that there is an option to go back to all categories, but the link is not correct, since it’s lacking ”/portfolio/” in the link. And – last question, I promise – is there a way to sort the categories afterwards? cheers!
Hey,
1. Could you share your portfolio URL so I can take a look?
2. In the Salient options panel > portfolio > functionality tab there’s an input for “Main Portfolio Page URL”
3. If by categories you mean the projects you’ve created which are acting as categories, you could change the date on the projects or use a plugin like this: https://wordpress.org/plugins/intuitive-custom-post-order/
Cheers
Hey there, sorry for getting back this late, had to get some work done
1. I could, but the website is offline as of right now, can I create an account for you and send you the credentials via e-mail?
2. Thanks, that worked like a charm!
3. Changing the date worked just fine, thank you!
Totally blown away by your support, thanks a TON!
Hey Nectar! Hope all is well, for portfolio items how do we remove the date in the project excerpt when we are embedding the portfolio element ?
Hey lnbbroductions
There’s an option for this in the Salient options panel > portfolio > functionality tab
Cheers
Wonderful, thank you Nectar. I need to spend more time going through every inch of that Salient Options Panel. Appreciate your time.
You’re welcome
