What’s the best way to highlight a main menu item in this theme? Others have the ability to add a background or stroke to the menu. I can add this in CSS more or less, but that’s not as ideal. Thanks.
Hey imaginetastyweb,
There’s an option to add a button style to menu items as the corporate demo shows, but that option was temp hidden with the WordPress 4.7 update – the update coming to Salient will show it again
Cheers
Hey Salient Fam! As always I’m blown away by every update you all work on- amazing work. One super-duper quick question. I am using the new menu type that has it permanently fixed on the left side of the screen. I have two questions regarding it.
1. I want to use slug navigation on a single page using the menu items on the left. However, when I do so the menu items stay highlighted. For example, if I have three tabs they will all appear active. I assume that is it because the URL path is in fact active. Is there anyway to work around this? I’ll link an example. (http://raindrop.is/)
2. Is it possible to right justify the side type menu seen in the example above (as opposed to the left?
You totally rock! Going to go make sure I have this theme rated at five stars (more if I could)
Hey Liyte!
1. As of now the highlighting would only work how you want it if the pages for in a submenu to a parent page as the demo shows for the about page. However i’ve noted to make this work in a steup like yours
2. Add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:
header#top nav > ul {
text-align: right;
width: 210px!important;
}
body[data-header-format="left-header"] #header-outer .button_social_group {
right: 30px;
left: auto!important;
}
Cheers
Pre-purchase question. I don’t see any demos showing email capture. What would the simplest way be to add MailChimp email capture to your theme? Thanks. Steve
Hey Steve,
This would require the use of a plugin as of now
Cheers
Also, I would really like to see an option to add hover effects on an single image in the future. Anyway, thank you for this great theme!
Hey ApaxDesign, I’ve noted to add that font into the upcoming update (the google font list will be refreshed)
Cheers
Hello, my client purchased your theme under her own envato account but I am wondering if there is a way to edit the side bar padding? I would prefer to have it move down a bit instead of being so close to slider. I can send an image for more reference if needed.
Oops I meant top margin not padding
Nevermind! Answered my own question 
sorry to bother
Hey msrocker, glad to hear you’ve sorted it!
Hey Phil,
Just wondering if it was possible to do something similar on this website?
https://www.sketchbook.com/?locale=enIf you scroll halfway down you’ll see a blow fish that goes through the iterations of a drawing from start to finish using 4 pictures as you’re scrolling.
https://www.sketchbook.com/?locale=en• Is this somehow possible using VC or any of Salients features?
If not this would be great to put on the list for the next update.
Thanks,
-CS
Hey CS,
Unfortunately this wouldn’t be possible at this time but I have indeed noted the idea for the wishlist
Cheers
When I use a background image and add padding to the row the image gets bigger – can I add padding without the image getting so big?
Hey 0754ben84,
That’s how the css property “background-size: cover” functions, if you remove that aspect your row will be left with empty spaces where the image isn’t covering parts. Could you please share your URL in regards so I can see the row?
Cheers
Yes its the row with the dalmatian in it here: http://77.104.149.194/~petcheck/
The image keeps blowing up and it’s losing quality – and I don’t want it to be that big anyway…
Thanks
Hey, assuming you’re trying to modify the Nectar Slider – add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel
.swiper-slide .image-bg {
background-size: contain!important;
}
need await your reply
I just checked the logs for your domain and I only could see one request blocked today but not related with the issue you have described. Is it possible to paste here the entire block message your developer is receiving? Can you please ask to your web developer to access the URL http://labs.sucuri.net/myip.php and you can paste the result here?
You can also send us screenshot using services like https://snag.gy/. It will help us to troubleshoot.
If you have any questions please, let us know.
Thank you.
Hey 2simplesolutions, I responded to your earlier email in regards

Hi is it possible to reduce the line height of the Salient slider heading text – but in mobile view?
Thanks
Hey 0754ben84,
Please share your URL in regards so I can take a look at your current settings

Hey, use this in the custom css box:
@media only screen and (max-width: 1000px) {
html body #ajax-content-wrap .nectar-slider-wrap[data-full-width="true"] .swiper-slide .content h2 {
line-height: 36px!important;

Hey Themenectar,
can you please help me to change the title style (strong and color) of a product on a single page product of woo commerce
http://www.villadesarts.xyz/product/eames-visual-impact/cheers mate
stef
Hey stef,
Add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel
body.single-product div.product .product_title {
font-weight: 700!important;
color: #777!important;
}
Cheers
Hey Themenectar,
color is working but neither 900 or bold attribute are working for the weight 
thanks mate
Hey, switching the weight would only work if you already had that specific weight loaded for the family. Do you have other weights loaded?

Hi.
Pre-sales question:
How well is bbPress integrated with this theme…??
Thanks in advance.
Hey, there is only basic styling integration
Cheers
are you going to update visual composer??
Hey josemanuel, in the upcoming update
Can I add a true Type font to typography? I need it to be a certain font that is not google fonts..
Hey agent8, adding a custom font outside of the Google list would require using css font-face or a plugin such as https://wordpress.org/plugins/use-any-font/
Hi! Is it possible to combine the gallery type “Touch Enabled & Spaced” and the function “Open in Lightbox” for portfolio items? I used it before updating to 7.6, now it doesn’t work any more. Do I have to change some settings? Kind regards, Maria
Hey Maria!
The upcoming update will sort it
Cheers

Hey ThemeTalks, thanks for letting me know!
Still awaiting a reply to my question??
I sent you a email
Hey 2simplesolutions, I responded to you earlier
Here’s the URL that shows pop up edit me: http://dev.united-athletics.ca/ how do I remove that?
Hey, that pop up is not from Salient – you have a plugin active that’s adding it
Anyway to disable the hover feature in the menu and drop down menu?
Hey, 1. You can change the effect in the Salient options panel > header navigation > animation effects tab http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/theme-options/header-navigation/#animation-effects
2. Removing the dropdown would require removing the submenu elements you have assigned in Appearance > menus
Hey, thanks for the great time! I just have one question, can you put your site on a kind of “maintenance mode”? Like when they go to my website they see the coming soon page, while I’m working on the installation of the theme? Thx!
Thanks timothy_st!
For this you’d need to use a plugin such as: https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-maintenance-mode/Cheers
