Hello,
For WooCommerce, I wanted to see if there is a setting to ensure that the title of a product in the archive is linkable (rather than just the product thumbnail).
For instance, if you go to this page (https://www.essentialoilsus.com/buy/), you can only click on the product images to get to the individual product’s page. The title of the product is not linked.
Thanks!
Brian
Hey Brian!
Have you tried the other product styles available in the Salient options panel > wooCommerce tab? The new one allows for this by default http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-business/shop/
Cheers
Got it – thanks!
You’re welcome 
Hey
I am curious, is this possible with a simple code to achieve this:
in the footer, to have several links, like Shipping Packaging money transfer etc. and to have the links link to a sertain place on the same page? for example, there would be a paragraph about packaging, and the link in the footer would link exactly to the paragraph about packaging on a page. Another link in the footer would link to another paragraph on the same page?
Thanks! Martyna
Hey Martyna,
If you had anchor links in the footer which corresponded to the paragraphs in the same way that the single page scrolling site gets set up then yes
Cheers
HI guys, is there an easy way to change the “READ MORE” button on the blog? Translation and getting the font bigger would be ok, but changing it into an icon, an arrow or something like that would be even better. Could you help me, please?
Best regards and thank you! Nela
Hey Nela!
If you can share your blog URL i’d be glad to take a look at your current settings to provide an example
Cheers

Hey again! Have you considered using the new blog standard style available in Salient 7.6? http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-business/articles/
How remove sidebar on portfolio pages? Greeting!
Hey sinapra!
When editing your projects there’s an option to enable the Full Width layout http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/project-metaboxes/
Pre-sales questions: Is there any Christmas sale or promo code?
Hey Kaddar,
The Cyber sale ended last weekend – however there might be a Christmas sale later on when it’s closer to the holiday
Cheers
Hi guys,
I’m trying to add a HelloBar to my site and I have it configured to push site content down, but something in the theme coding is countering and is overlapping the bar instead. As you can see, the main nav header is covering the bar and it’s adding a white space below it.
I found someone else that was having this same issue in the comments about 1-2 years ago, but a fix wasn’t posted. I was hoping you could help me figure out what code in the theme is causing this clash or atleast how to get the content to push down as it should.
Site URL: http://bit.ly/2hd7aRZ
Hey Linkinspy!
Try adding this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:
body #header-outer[data-permanent-transparent="false"] {
margin-top: 49px;
}
Cheers
That definitely eliminates the white space on desktop, but it’s still showing on mobile. Anyway to translate that same result over?
Thanks!
Hey, add this in as well
@media only screen and (max-width:690px) {
html body #header-outer[data-permanent-transparent="false"] {
margin-top: 114px;
}
}
You guys are great! Thank you!!
Cheers
How can I add arrows to show prior/next product when viewing products? Would like same arrows used in slides, carousel, etc. Thanks
Hey superbrecs,
As of now this would require custom modding as there’s nothing to quickly enable to add this
Cheers
Noted. Thanks
You’re welcome
How can I stop Visual Composer from inserting p and br tags in the text editor?
If I insert a Text Block with this content:[one_third]Content A[/one_third][two_thirds_last]Content B[/two_thirds_last] [one_third]Content A[/one_third][two_thirds_last]Content B[/two_thirds_last]
(see screenshot: https://goo.gl/tk0NgH)
then saves it, and the edit the Text Block again, the content looks like this:<p>[one_third]Content A[/one_third][two_thirds_last]Content B[/two_thirds_last]<br /> [one_third]Content A[/one_third][two_thirds_last]Content B[/two_thirds_last]</p>
(see screenshot: https://goo.gl/2iCvyA)
And this happens without even saving the post/page. So it’s something with visual composer. I also confirmed this by inserting the same content in the regular text editor (non-visual).
Hey ploughansen,
I can’t replicate this on my own setup – could you please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can take a further look? https://themenectar.ticksy.com
Cheers
I have opened a ticket. I look forward to hear from you.
Will there be a Masonry option for WooCommerce in the next update. I can see quite e a few people asking for it over the last couple of years. IT would really help modernise my layout!
Hey martingfisher,
That’s an item on the wishlist but it won’t make the very next update – most likely in the next WooCommerce focused release
Cheers
HI,
I have a question. The theme looks good on mobile devices but not completely good to Google’s eyes.
So, I did tests and I thought i’d share it for you for future updates. Now that Google is switching to mobile-first search engine it is very important to take care of any mobile and speed issues. I am sure many of your users would agree with this.
Here is the issue. I did tests on your own demo. I ignored image optimization and caching issues because I know you are not using any speed optimization plugins for the Corporate theme.
However, there is one issue with is a theme related issue and no speed plugin could fix it. It needs to be addressed by the developer.
When I did a speed test using Google’s PageSpeed tool I get a User Experience error. Element fall outside of the viewport. The page content is 1,222 CSS pixels wide but the view port is 411 CSS pixels wide for mobile.
Here is a screenshot http://imgur.com/a/dVZVf
Also, consider these html errors.
https://validator.w3.org/nu/?doc=http%3A%2F%2Fthemenectar.com%2Fdemo%2Fsalient-corporate%2F2013%2F03%2Fthe-field%2Fespecially the 2nd one, its everywhere. I am guessing this is the heart symbol of the social media sharing option.
Thank you,
Hey Seseskiz,
1. The error saying the page content is 1,222px on the home page of the corporate demo is related only to the testimonial slider, as the items are kept off screen and are allowed to be scrolled through. All the other items mentioned for row bgs etc are falling only a couple pixels out of the viewport, you’ll see that if you run any other corporate demo page through the checker. Both of these issues will indeed be fixed shortly though
2. And thanks for mentioning the two html errors you found on the blog single template, they will also be sorted
HI Nectar, yes I know it is the testimonial slider. We’ll be waiting for a fix thanks
Cheers
While you are fixing those, can you also add an alt tag to the comments avatar? It is missing the alt tag
Hi, is it possible to create a page like your “Photography” demo, but use it for vimeo videos instead? I’d like the videos to open in those lightbox pop-ups on top of the page, and I’d also like to add a description in that pop-up, so it will come right under the video. Would that be possible? Thanks.
Hey karrudo,
You could indeed use the masonry layout in combination with a lightbox to link to vimeo videos. It would need to be created from a portfolio itm though, so each project would be created indivudally – this is where you could supply the vimeo link which would be opened in the lightbox. As of now you couldn’t subtitle the video popup though
Cheers
Pre-sales questions:
1. Can VC be used to author blog posts, or pages only? 2. Is it possible to inset an image in the blog post body that spans the entire width of the page (with no white border left and right). I other words, an edge to edge image?
Thanks in advance!
Hey wern777!
1. It can be used for blog posts, pages and portfolio items
2. Yes – when using a blog single layout without the sidebar such as this http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-corporate/2016/01/the-reason-we-decided-to-change-locations/
There is an issue with the Visual Composer. “Full Width Content” for the row setting seems to work only when I use two columns. One column with content doesn’t look any different than the “In Container” setting within the row.
Hey RollingSpoke, since there’s no known issue like this could you kindly share your URL where the issue is present so I can take a look?
Here is a page I setup. As you can see I can’t get a single image to work with “full width content” set in the row. In general, all the alignment just seems to be off. http://rollingspoke.com/row-test/
This is an example of a post where everything is aligned correctly. http://rollingspoke.com/panning-in-pedal-mode/
On a small side note, not sure if this is a wordpress update issue, but “justify” text is no longer available under the text block toggle settings. Kinda strange.
Hey,
It seems to be an issue related to the new WP img srcset feature, to quickly remedy it now you could add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel
body .wpb_row.full-width-content img {
max-width: none;
width: 100%;
}
Cheers
Thanks!
You’re welcome
Hello. I would like to use the Ascend skin so that the social sharing buttons at the bottom of the single post page are placed just above the comments, but then that skin takes away the down arrow when there is a dropdown menu available in the navigation.
I should also mention that you lose the nice divider lines in the drop down menu when switching to Ascend them. Is it just possible to fix the placement of the single post social sharing buttons with the standard skin so they stay above the comments?
Hey orcawest, if you use the blog header type “Fullscreen with meta under” or “Variable height minimal” in the Salient options panel > blog tab it will change the location to what you’re looking for
Yes I am using variable height minimal and the social icons are at the bottom of the post, but they are all below the comments which doesn’t look nice or make any sense. They should be just above the comments.
Hey, in order to change that without using the ascend skin you’d need to modify the single.php file in regards
I’m sorry but I don’t know how to do that.
File modding is a little above what I can easily provide help with here, please consider using Envato Studio in regards in you need to mod done now. There will also be new social sharing layout options coming in the next update
Cheers
Hello, when I scroll down on the pages of my website, the screen glitches and blacks out. This is happening on all the websites where I have used your theme. Could you help me understand what the issue could be?
Hey SP1000,
Please share one of the URLs and let me know what browser you’re using so I can take a look
Cheers
Hi, I put an animation on my homepage: theawesomelixia.com but it’s too large and took too long to load. I exported my animation to an svg. Now I have a .js file for my animation. Could you tell me how can I put the js animation on my page?
Hey ithilien525,
Salient offers a raw JS element block inside of the Visual Composer page builder, if you have custom code you can enter it in there
Cheers
Hi, I noticed you mentioned “further performance related updates are coming”. Any idea when we can expect this? I am using BWP minify and W3 Cache and the performance is still not ideal. Love the theme but the slow speed is something we’d love to see improve. In the meantime any other suggestions or specific settings on those 2 previous plug-ins is highly appreciated. —Thanks
Hey superbrecs, It will most likely be out this month
Perfect! Can’t wait…
Cheers
I am a little confused about the combination of full height rows and footer. For me, it does not work, regardless of what I choose. when I choose “default footer” for example, it shows the footer but it ignores the shadow setting and the 4 widgets fill only the left half of the screen, split into 2 rows. That happens in fullwidth mode or boxed mode for the footer. Is there a known bug (I use your latest version) or is there a chance that I do something wrong?
Hey markimark,
Please share your URL where the issues occurs so I can take a better look
Cheers
Hey, try adding this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:
#footer-widgets .clear-both { clear: none!important; }
no… not working 
am I the only one who is experiencing this?
I’m not setting the snippet entered into your custom css box, could you please reach out with your admin credentials in regards? You can use the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar
could you please give me an update? I do not want to keep the support access to our installation for a much longer time. Thank you.
Hey, I just logged in to check on things and didn’t see the snippet I provided above in your custom css box, I added it in and it seems to be working as expected. Have you tried clearing your cache?
also, instead seeing a nice shadow effect you can see the dark background of the website for a split of a second if you reveal the footer, not always but often. Maybe you can have a closer look to this feature!?
Hey – the shadow effect on the footer reveal is not able to be used with the full page rows feature as of now, however i’ve indeed noted to add it
Hey, add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
body[data-footer-reveal="1"][data-header-format="left-header"] #nectar_fullscreen_rows #footer-outer {
padding-left: 0!important;
}
Cheers
Gracias! I just discovered a problem. I am building a webite now but before we have printed a catalogue with qr codes, pointing to curtain “pages” that will be created. For some reasons, I now have decided to use portfolio items instead pages but then I saw the url and that says /portfolio/myport1. Is there any way that I can get rid of that /portfolio/ in the url? with that inside, my qr codes in the catalogue never will work.
Hi Nectar,
When you get a chance, review private ticket #983442. Having issues with fullscreen rows and mobile menu.
Thanks, Bobby
Hey Bobby, i’ll check it as soon as I can
Cheers
Nectar,
I just replied to your post after making the suggested changes. Please advise on how to remedy the remaining issues.
Thanks, Bobby
Nectar,
The Dot navigation was throwing it off. We are good to go for now!
Hey, glad to hear
Is there a feature to create sort of a pop-up modal page. An overlay page basically that’s activated by a button or link. Here is an example of what I would want to do:
http://www.corepoweryoga.com/yoga-fitness-experienceIf you scroll down to the “New To Yoga” call to action and click on the ”+” you will see what I’m looking to do.
Thanks!
Hey coreygibbs,
Not as of now without some modding – but I’ve noted your +1 for the idea
Cheers
Is this something I could hire you to mod for me?
You could check out Envato Studio in regards https://studio.envato.com/explore/wordpress
