Hi,
I like the new left hand menu navigation, but it seems that top menu items, that have a drop-down sub-menu items, can’t link to anything? As in your example ( http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-business/ ) the ‘About’ menu item can’t link to anything, just drops down. Any thoughts? Is there a hover and drop down option? or arrow?
Hey mcintalmcmaster,
It functions the same as the off canvas menu as seen here http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-agency/ – for now it will only open the submenu, though I’ve noted your idea for alternative options
Cheers
The last update is fantastic, good job! I have a question about the compatibility of the header transparency options with the fullscreen rows. Currently the header starts transparently over a slider but remains transparent even when scrolling the page down, which does not happen with the fullscreen row option disabled. It’s some kind of bug or I need to make some adjustment? The inherit color option does not work too.
Hey jeanalvs!
When using the transparent header it will be active over all slides as the demos show – it’s esseitally a vertical slider, the page isn’t scrolling anywhere to remove the transparent nav. If you didn’t want it on, you’d need to turn it off for the page all together
Cheers
I found this code in a comment from 2 years ago, regarding how to add a text shadow to the header in nectar slider, but it doesn’t seem to work any longer. Is there an update to this code that someone can share?
.body .swiper-slide .content {
text-shadow: 0px 1px 2px rgba(0,0,0,0.5);
-webkit-text-shadow: 0px 1px 2px rgba(0,0,0,0.5);
}
Hey carolbwa,
Change it to this:
.body .swiper-slide .content h2 {
text-shadow: 0px 1px 2px rgba(0,0,0,0.5);
-webkit-text-shadow: 0px 1px 2px rgba(0,0,0,0.5);
}
Cheers
Thank you, I’m trying that but it still isn’t working. I’ve tried so many variations and nothing seems to work. Can you take a look here? https://goo.gl/opcc8q
I’m trying to put a very minimal, white drop shadow behind the h2 text there on the nectar slider so the text doesn’t go invisible over the darker parts of the slider images.
I really appreciate it.
Cheers, CW
Sorry if this is replying duplicate but I just posted a reply to this and it vanished.

Hey! The above snippet I wrote actually has a type, there should be no dot before the body tag
body .swiper-slide .content h2 {
text-shadow: 0px 1px 2px rgba(0,0,0,0.5);
-webkit-text-shadow: 0px 1px 2px rgba(0,0,0,0.5);
}
Sorry!
Ok. I tried that but it still isn’t working. Any other thoughts? Thanks!
Hey, i’m currently not seeing the code being applied on the front – could you please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can take a further look? https://themenectar.ticksy.com
Hi guys, using the following code to try and change the font size on the checkout buttons but only the update cart seems to be working:
.woocommerce input[type="submit"][name="update_cart"],
.woocommerce .span_4 input[type="submit"].checkout-button {
font-size: 22px!important;
}
URL is http://www.chickenandblues.com/
Any advice?
Thanks!
Hey elitemediaagency!
Change the snippet to:
.woocommerce input[type="submit"][name="update_cart"],
.woocommerce .span_4 input[type="submit"].checkout-button,
.woocommerce-cart .wc-proceed-to-checkout a.checkout-button {
font-size: 22px!important;
}

Hi there ThemeNectar. I love using your theme but I have a small problem. I have installed new 7.6 version on my new site and everything is working fine, beside importing demos. I can’t see pictures of any demo and i can’t import it to my site. I checked this on my other site with older version of Salient and it’s working just fine. Have you got any solution for me?
Best regards
Hey Galeziowski!

Hey. I opened a ticket on this site and I get a reply: “They posted the wrong URL, this is the support desk for ThemeNectar:” I also contacted someone who knows more about wordpress than me and he says that there is a problem with slashes in URL links to demo images. Current URL looks like this: http://codesbackup.com/wp-contentthemessalientnectarredux-frameworkextensionswbc_importerdemo-dataAgency/screen-image.jpg
and it should like this: http://codesbackup.com/wp-content/themes/salient/nectar/redux-framework/extensions/wbc_importer/demo-data/Agency/screen-image.jpg
What can I do?
Hey again, sorry about that! The link was pasted incorrectly – it should have been https://themenectar.ticksy.com
Hello, we’ve problems with internet explorer 11. See the homepage of www.demo-winterwebcare.nl You see that the portfolio items are not showing correctly. Do you have a solution for this problem? Kind regards,
Hey winterwebcare,
Please see my reponse to your previous comment in regards 
Cheers
Hi! Great theme. One of the best I’ve ever used. One question. Where is the option to disable page full screen rows on mobile devices located? Thank you!
Thanks koyabellfitness! If you’re using Salient 7.6 it’s located directly in the full page rows metabox with all the other options
Cheers
Is there a way to have the Video Lightbox style play in place rather than in a lightbox?
Hey A_K,
Unfortunately not – you can have a video background but there wouldn’t be a play button such as the video lightbox button on it
Cheers
Hello – After setting custom colors for my Footer via the Salient config panel, I am unable to set a hover color for links in the footer widgets. I’ve tried several times using CSS – is there a CSS override just for the text link hover effect in the footer? Thanks!
Hey cliffsarcona,
Try using this in the custom css box in the Salient options panel in regards
#footer-outer #footer-widgets .col ul li a:hover {
color: #000!important;
}
Cheers
That did not work – there’s another rule forcing it to stay #000 with !important that seems to be taking precedence (I didnt create it)
Hey, could you kindly share your URL so I can take a further look?
Hey, change the snippet to
body #footer-outer a:not(.nectar-button) {
color: #e1d4bf!important;
}
Hi Theme Nectar, Is there a way to create many DEMOS using different domains using only 1 Salient License? Of course only 1 will be active until the other be ready to replace the old one.
Hey maurinoloureiro!
I would reach out to Envato in regards for specifics https://help.market.envato.com/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=37840 – it sounds like it may be okay as long as one is active at a time, but just verify with them to make sure
Cheers
Hey, on my nectar slider titles, there’s a screen size breakpoint for every page on my site for the text to resize, except this page: http://myreliefplus.com/philosophy/
Do you know why this is? If so, I’d like it to do that for every page (as in, not resize with the breakpoint).
Actually, i think i found out. The row was set to “in container” and not “full width content” like the other pages.
Hey myreliefplus,
glad to hear you’ve sorted it
Cheers
Hello. Can you all recommend a good maintenance mode / coming soon plugin that works well with Salient?
I had one that allowed for a video background, email capture, bio and contact page, but it didn’t work with Salient. Now I’m using something that’s boring and ugly. lol.
Thanks.
Hey pkc827,
Unfortunaely I don’t have one to reccomend but if you ecnounter another issue with one or switch back to the one that wasn’t working correctly – please share the URL so I can take a look
Cheers
Sure. It’s www.YourPlushRental.com. When I activate the Minigo plugin, I lose the Salient menu option.
Hey,
Could you please open a ticket in regards and supply the plugin for testing purposes so I can take a look? https://themenectar.ticksy.com also please let me know the ticket ID here once you’ve done so
Cheers

Hi, awesome theme. Can you assist or point me to right help section where I can create single page layout that starts as a full screen before navigating to content below (but I dont want to activate full screen rows). I just want to get the full screen start to re-size full on all browsers. Appreciate your guidance!
Hey colourst,
The only way to acheive that would be to use a Nectar slider or page header as they both offer the fullscreen option
Cheers
Thank you. What setting exactly puts the nectar slider into 100% h/w screen size?
There’s an option in the Nectar Slider element available in the Salient visual composer for fullscreen height – when you check that checkbox, that’s all that’s needed. Make sure you have the full width option enabled as well so that the fullscreen option is available
Cheers
Hi again!
I have a question, i do have my menu set to be transparent, but in portfolio items, my menu stays with colors, and with white borders, how do i disable it?
https://www.dropbox.com/s/wokyldpdx432cgc/2.PNG?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/571k4t0cpbft7xv/1.PNG?dl=0Hey JosephNorori!
Could you kindly share your URL in regards so I can see what’s causing that for you?

Hey, try adding this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:
html body #header-outer[data-transparent-header="true"].transparent {
border-bottom: none!important;
}
html body #header-outer[data-full-width="true"].transparent header#top nav ul .slide-out-widget-area-toggle a {
border-left: 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.07)!important;
}
Hi, it dint solve the issue, in any other page, the menu is transparent and depending on the text color of the “row” it changes to light or dark. But in the portfolio items, it doesn’t do that. I managed to find were to disable the solid bg on header, but can make it change it to dark and light depending on the “rows” text color.
why in porfolios only this happens?
Do you have a page header set for your project? That’s the only way the transparent header nav will trigger by default on a project
HI Guys,
Is it possible to remove the overlay on the fancy boxes?
They make my images look dirty, if that makes sense?
Thanks
Ben
Hey Ben,
Add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:
.nectar-fancy-box .box-bg:after {
display: none!important;
}
Cheers
awesome, thanks!
You’re welcome
Hello,
I have my logo centered on the header of the theme, but how can I link it to a different URL? Any help will be much appreciated!
Thank You
Hey Act1vated,
If you want your logo to link somewhere other than your home page you’re going to need to modify this in the “nectar_logo_output” function in the functions.php
Cheers
Great thank you!
You’re welcome
Hey there,
How do I make a 100% height cover image, usually this is just an option in VC but I can’t set it?
Thanks
Hey,
Salient offers an option for full screen rows: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/page-metaboxes/#fullscreenrows or you could use the page header/Nectar Slider as those also both offer options for full screen height
Cheers
Hey, thanks for the reply.
I did try both of those first. Unfortunately, the full-screen rows doesn’t work for me as the page I’m building will have too much content. The Nectar slider doesn’t allow for you to add any additional content other than text and I need to add some icons etc.
Is there any other way around it?
Thanks
Hey – you could also use a regular visual composer row set to full width background and then use % values for the top/bottom padding. Adding in something like 10% or 15% for both (depending on how much content you have in the row) will allow something very close to a fullscreen height and it will scale down nicely with different devices
Cheers
Hi, love your theme and the dedication you are giving to respond to so many questions. I’m not an expert user and I always check before asking; this time I didn’t find any on this subject, sorry if I missed it: is there any way to have the three line mobile menu on desktop? as yo have here (http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-agency/full-width-masonry/)
Hey hhb
For this you could use the off canvas navigation http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/theme-options/header-navigation/
Cheers
i mean a gallery in one page
Hey,
Yes – you can use the portfolio or image gallery element in a fullscreen row setup
Cheers
