Hi how do I add images to the corner of rows like you have done in the app theme? When I add it to the background top right corner for example it covers the whole background and not just the top right.
Thanks!
Hey PJSGroup!
the background image is made with the image offset in that demo http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-app/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/letssee.jpg

wow this theme keeps getting better! i noticed there’s a slight background coloration bug at the slide-in sidebar menu. you can see it at the ECOMMERCE demo, open the slide-in sidebar and notice there’s two hues of color in the widget box. upon scrolling the color will jump between the full color and box color. just thought you might want to fix that. 
my bad. i was using dual monitor earlier. might be my mac or the browser. slide-in menus seems fine.
Hey monoselecta, let me know if it occurs for you again so I can take a further look
I’m having a problem with project categories. I can add them but none of the categories show up under the sort menu on the top right of the page even though there is portfolio items within that category. It seems once you delete the categories included in the theme, you can’t see any of the portfolio items because you can’t add categories. Can you help me with this? Thanks.

I have changed the salient slider heading 2 to heading 1 and I think i did it through functions.php if I am not mistaking. and I have also edited the header.php files. Will these be re-written?
If yes, I am guessing the solution is to keep a copy of the modified files on my hard drive. Update the theme with the new ones, then replace the modified files again. What do you suggest?
Hey seseskiz,
If you just replace the current file with the old one it will cause issues since you’ll have outdated files then – you need to update just the section where you made the mods
Cheers
I do not understand what you mean? How do I update just the sections only?
I basically want to update the theme to the new version but I want to be sure that everything I changed stays the same.
That would be:
1. Custom CSS in the salient options 2. header.php 3. functions.php
Would you please provide a step-by-step instructions on how to safely update?
Thank you!
Hey!
The custom css in the Salient options panel will remain intact after updating – the other two files you will need to open up after updating and add your modifications to again
Update 7.6 is not working at all.

Hi awesome update!
In the new business demo there is a animated “scroll down icon” (mouse like) and i was wondering how can (if possible) use that same icon and animation for my full screen rows on the front page?
Thanks JosephNorori!
You can select that option in the Salient options panel > Page header tab
Cheers
Perfect! I was more asking about the full page rows, i see there is no option (other than tool tips) for anchors or scroll down arrows animated like the header one.
but what i did was at the div from svg and place it wit custom editing on the row.
example:
<svg class=”nectar-scroll-icon” viewBox=”0 0 30 45” enable-background=”new 0 0 30 45”> <path class=”nectar-scroll-icon-path” fill=”none” stroke=”#ffffff” stroke-width=”2” stroke-miterlimit=”10” d=”M15,1.118c12.352,0,13.967,12.88,13.967,12.88v18.76 c0,0-1.514,11.204-13.967,11.204S0.931,32.966,0.931,32.966V14.05C0.931,14.05,2.648,1.118,15,1.118z”></path> </svg>And it work. But i have a suggestion to add this scroll bar to full paged rows. But is a nice touch for header nevertheless. Thank you 
Hey, thanks for the clarification and request

No matter what I do I can’t make my portfolio page show images like the page below. I have hard time showing off vertical images, thumbnails get distorted and small if I enable Masonry style. What am I doing wrong??? I really like the new layout of the photography gallery and I would love to have it setup like this. Please help.
http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-photography/ http://www.jaskophotography.com/chicago-wedding-photography/Hey ppmapartments, you need to follow the guidelines for the “Masonry Grid Sizing” as explained in the theme options panel & user guide http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/theme-options/portfolio/
Hi,
I see a new update in my Envato Toolkit, when I click on update automatically it says updating the theme will lose any customization you have made. How do I properly update it without losing anything?
Hey seseskiz,
it’s only referring to if you modifying the core template files, as they were be replaced with the new ones. If you didn’t edit the core files directly then you’ll be fine
Cheers
Hey, that’s occurring because you have the animated anchor links option on in your Salient options panel > general settings tab. What version were you on previously where this didn’t happen?
I was using 7.5.02 and everything was good. Then I updated to 7.6 and stopped working.
The animated anchor is disabled also
Can you link me the plugin you’re using to create that?
Could you kindly send me a copy of the plugin for testing as it’s not publicly available. Please use the contact form on here: https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar
Hi guys, I’m trying to create something different with the portfolio. I’d like to add a div class after each row of 4.
So, I’m using fullwidth, constrain to 4 items options, is there a way I can insert a div class inside the loop for the portfolio after every 4 items? I couldn’t see exactly where I could insert this in shortcode-processing.php.
I know how to do it with a blog loop using a counter:
<?php $counter = 1 ?>
<?php if ($counter % 4 == 0){echo '<div class="white" />';} ?>
etc etc. Could it be done inside the portfolio? Would be a cool feature to make some really custom looking portfolio pages.
Hey Sean,
It would indeed need to go into the shortcode-processing.php file – the function is called “nectar_portfolio_processing” and you can find the loop around line 1313 if you’re on the current version
Cheers
OK cool. Got it working. For reference I added this:
<?php if($counter==2) {
$counter=-1
?><div class="white<?=$fbCut?>" /><?php
$fbCut++;
} $counter++; ?>
<?php endwhile; endif; ?>
Right before the closing div of the Portfolio wrap (Line 2296 on salient 7.6).
Thank you!
Hey, glad to hear

Hey, no worries

Hi themenectar, when I use a header image for a blog post, I can’t seem to view the post properly on my smartphone, the body text is being squished to the right into a very narrow column. How can I fix this? Thank you!!
Hey anagcan! Could you kindly share the URL in regards so I can take a look?
Cheers
Hey, what mobile device are you seeing this occur on? Currently I can’t see this on an iPhone 6
It’s happening on my iphone5 and i just checked on an iphoneSE and same thing…
Hey, try to add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
@media only screen and (max-width:690px) {
body .container-wrap {
width: 100%;
}
}
Cheers
like a charm! Thank you!! =)
You’re welcome

Hi,
Still having issues with having ‘full screen rows’ activated and it causing other minor css issues in other areas, such as the nav starting logo colour when using transparent nav. When using Full Screen Rows the background colour issue is now fixed however, which is ace!

Hey Ben, I’ll take a look at your ticket as soon as I can

No worries and no rush – thanks dude
I have a significant issue with the theme. After setting it up and it all working swimmingly, now – whenever I load a page to try and update it, it loads up other pages or auto-drafts and so I cannot fix or update anything. Gutted.
Hey ICTEvangelist, did you install/update anything when this occurred or was it out of nowhere as far as you know?
Out of nowhere as far as I know. I have updated all of the standard plugins and theme since I made the pages originally and haven’t even looked at the pages. The standard blog posts work fine. I’ve checked the php version in case that was the issue with VC but that isn’t the case. I don’t understand it.
The site is ictevangelist.com if you want to have a look.
Any update on this?
Hey,
I would need to log in since looking at the front hasn’t provided much insight to this issue – could you reach out via the contact form on my author page? https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

After updating my whole site crashed. All fonts and colours are different and the layout is destroyed?

Hi! I’m planning to purchase your theme but I have some questions to ask you. - If I purchase a regular license, will it be only applicable to one domain? - If yes, can I still use the template to used offline? By this, I mean can the template be still used on a localhost through xampp as a testing environment?
I hope I could get a response soon. Thank you
Hey ralphtiangco,
The license is indeed for use on one domain, however you can also use it simultaneously on a localhost setup
Cheers
Do you have a new change log for 7.6 coming soon? I’m eager to explore all the new stuff, but I’m using the two new demos as a basis.
By the way I love the new icon element (gigantic improvement over trying to jam those in through shortcode) and the new client display and vertical navigation options are gorgeous.
