Hi guys,

How do i change the font on the toggle panels but the minimal version – I’ve already search and tried some of the custom css that you recommended but I think that was for the default toggle panels.

Thanks

Hey, it looks like you set that in a custom manner, outside of the theme typography options. If you want to adjust it via css, you’d need to use

body .toggle h3 a {
    font-family: 'doctor-soos-bold'!important;
}

Ahh thanks!

I was really hoping to see a real “What you see is what you get” visual editor to work with the true, live page design – instead of the old block builder. Your theme is elegant and powerful, but the page editor/designer, just like those in many other themes, feel like they’ve come from the year 2005. We’ve had Visual Basic for 20 years, but we can’t create a real-time page editor for the #1 blogging platform in the world? Come on, guys ;-) For example, the Beaver editor is actually real-time.

Hey kevinNkevin, front end integration has been on the wishlist & will be out sometime this year ;)

Cheers

It seems weird the ThemeNectar team has waited so long for an update.

Hey ace2296,

It’s historically accurate that large feature based updates have 2-3 months between them :)

Cheers

Hello! On your template, you can make a menu on the side? Example – http://www.unitrec.com/services/cargo/

Hey!

You can have a permanent left menu of left vertical tabs

Cheers

How do I make so a button opens in a popup window

Hey,

The nectar button VC element offers the option to open links in new tabs with the following option http://imgur.com/a/Zjj5R

I’ve updated to the latest Salient theme as recommended by the plugin. I then noticed my Shop page broke. It only now allows for a maximum column count of 2 as seen here: https://jokermartini.com/shop. How can i fix this?

Hey, have you tried to check with your hosting company in regards to see if there’s anything interfering/blocking the request?

all fixed! thank you

Cheers!

Will there be an update for this soon as my theme appears to be breaking?? Certain options are no longer available etc.

Hey startumproject, the only known issue with WP 4.7 is that the navigation button style select is hidden. If you have other issues you’re facing please list them so I can take a look :)

Hi, awesome theme but quick question, how can I add new fonts to this theme in order to select them in Typography config section?

Is this possible?

Hey bufofa,

As of now this wouldn’t be possible without custom modding to the theme files – however if you just wanted to use a custom font without adding it into the theme options panel, see CSS font face https://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/using-font-face/ or this plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/use-any-font/ in regards

Cheers

Hey TN,

I feel I remember reading somewhere in these comments that the update incoming will have some core optimization features included (site speed etc.) – are you able to confirm this?

My PageSpeed is quite low (though I know this is very much also related to image sizes etc. as well), so I’m wondering if this might be positively affected with the update.

Thanks as always

Hey, just shoot me an email via the contact form on my author page https://themenectar.ticksy.com/ :)

Cheers

Hey, msg sent through Themeforest; hope this is ok – I couldn’t see anywhere to contact you without using the standard support function…

Sweet, will get it to you soon :)

when I go to the web site: https://goo.gl/gb4tod From my computer all looks good as in this picture: http://imgur.com/s6vb2l3 but when entered from my other pc (display more large) the fancy box is cut: http://imgur.com/dodNZ4s do not fill the full height of the column. If it comes to this page (which is where I have the fancy box) can see the problem. https://goo.gl/gb4tod Thanks :)

Hey latitut,

You can’t have any Salient element auto scale the height to the rest of content in your other columns – to have the effect work you’re trying for without custom modding, you’d need to just use a BG image in the columns you want to adjust automatically

Cheers

Hello, I just installed a clean wordpress with the most upated theme. However my visual composer doesn’t seem to work. It just doesn’t popup as an option for backend editing. Is there another update to fix this?

Hey imjesuschiko,

There’s no known issue with VC and WP 4.7+ could you please reach out via the contact form on my author page with your admin credentials? https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Cheers

I saw other comments mention the same problem days before I did. Thanks for your response, I have sent you my admin credentials through the form. How long should I wait to expect a reply?

Hey, I just logged into your setup and edited an existing page as well as tested on a new page – the visual composer is appearing and allows me to add/edit elements. What browser/OS are you using so I can try replicating your setup

Cheers

Hello, Pre-sale question: Is it possible to edit pages on the front-end using VC or is editing only through backend? I couldn’t see any example of screenshot of this.

Thanks!

Hey DrHariri!

As of now only the backend option is available

Cheers

​I am trying to override CSS in the responsive.css file using the child theme style.css BUT it will not override the responsive code.

I have tried to add this code in the Customization panel plus in the Custom CSS section of the theme options plus I added a responsive.css file to the child theme (not sure I added a line in functions.php correctly)

Q: HOW DO I OVERRIDE STYLES from responsive.css file?

(Please help as this is a theme bug and I don’t feel like I should have to pay extra to get this answered.)

Hey Jennifermetter,

As you can see from your screenshots, the selector you’ve written ”.jeenijune-slide1 p” is not as specific as the one in the theme ”.nectar-slider-wrap[data-full-width=”false”] .swiper-slide .content p” and therefore is not used, this is how CSS functions regardless of the theme or CMS you’re using (more specific selectors are always used). You’d need to change your snippet to be more specific than the theme one for it to override it. Also, I see you’re trying to change the Nectar Slider font sizing on various viewports but there’s already options for this in the Nectar Slider element and CSS is not needed http://imgur.com/a/sFlEI

Cheers

Ok great. I will try this. Thank you!

You’re very welcome :)

How do I make the font size smaller on mobile menu and also put a margin from above?

See picture: http://ungamuslimer.se/s1.png

Hey, please see my response to your previous comment in regards :)

How do I make the font size smaller on mobile menu and also put a margin from above?

See picture: http://ungamuslimer.se/s1.png

Hey,

You can control the font sizing of the Off canvas nav in the Salient options panel > typography > navigation & page header tab. If you’re trying to have a separate size for mobile only that would require css. Also add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel to increase the top space

#slide-out-widget-area.slide-out-from-right {
  padding-top: 60px!important;
}

Cheers

How do I add a link to “Animated title”?

Hey, as of now that would require custom modding

Is it possible to change the color of the overlaid image title on hover (and only on hover) for the “Title overlaid w/ zoom effect on hover” option in the image gallery/portfolio?

Thanks for a great theme! Have made it possible even for a web page newbie like me to make an awesome looking web page :)

Thanks kolkritan!

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

.portfolio-items .col:hover h3,
.portfolio-items .col:hover p {
  color: #000!important;
}

Cheers

Hi there! Is there a way to add social icons at the bottom of a member’s description in fullscreen modal mode? I tried with shortcodes but it’s simply parsed as plain text :(

Hey,

As of now you can’t use shortcodes in there – however i’ve noted the idea for the wishlist

Cheers

Thanks!

You’re welcome :)

I’ve noticed recently that my header logos have stopped working properly; not sure if this was after I upgraded to WP 4.7 or not. I fixed some of it by actually defining the files for Header Starting Dark Logo (even though leaving this empty before used to work with the default logo). However, I also have the header and logo set to shrink when you scroll down a page, but this causes the logo to disappear completely. Any suggestions?

See example here: http://www.river-design.com/branding-your-business/visuals-video-photography/

—Ken

Yes I do: http://imgur.com/a/I4He9 This used to work just fine. I only noticed it wasn’t working a couple of days ago.

OK, I got it working again… by manually removing the logo that was there and re-uploading. Perhaps something in the WordPress 4.7 update broke the link to the regular logo; even though it still showed up in the Salient options panel? Odd.

Glad to hear you’ve sorted it – i’ve noted to look further into that as well

Really excited to see the new menu styles in v7.6! Are the collapsible parent-child menu links shown in the left side menu in your business demo theme possible for the menu shown in the Off Canvas menu area? http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-business

Hey!

As of now that menu functionality is only for the left hand fixed nav

Cheers
