Hi
How do we change the testimonial slider colour to the accent colour or a custom colour?
I want to use the minimal style with the text colour to be customised. I don’t want to use a background colour and make text light.
For the row I have chosen the text:custom option and entered the hex code of the colour but I think its been over ridden.
Help please! http://bit.ly/2kdUzNT
Hey geekdot,
Add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:
.testimonial_slider blockquote p,body .testimonial_slider blockquote span {
color: #999!important;
}
Cheers
In addition… Media Library is no longer showing up. I can no longer add new images or see any of the images in the library. Please advise. Also, yes… I am running the latest version of Wordpress and Salient. Thank you.
Hey, please see my response to your previous comment in regards
Cheers
Deprecated Question – I am receiving 3 different PHP errors and I’m unable to upload any new images now. Using the latest Salient update and running the latest version of Wordpress as well. I’ve also tried every version of PHP from 5.3.6 to 5.7
Hey,
Please share the PHP errors you’re receiving so I can better assist as there’s no known issues like that
Cheers
Hey there. I am receiving these. Are they PHP version specific? I disabled the few active plugins and the error(s) still persisted so not sure how to get rid of them. Thank you.

Hey ThemeNectar, Is there a way to remove the Portfolio date when hovering over the portfolio thumbnails? Thanks.
Hey bejmedia,
Yes – this would be possible via css, could you please let me know the portfolio project style you’re using?
Cheers
Yes! I’m using the Business style
Hey! For that – you can actually make use of the option inside of the Salient options panel > portfolio > functionality tab called “Display Dates on Project”
Cheers
There is a conflict between Gravity Forms’ conditionals and the new Salient update!
Hey danielmorosan, i’ve noted to test with this for the update – could you please share any more specifics?
Well if you have a conditional set for n X field to only show when another radius is set to “yes” it will not work, because the X field is already visible. Also the TOTAL is not updating with live calculation of price.
Thanks for the details – I will test with this further
Hi guys,
Is it possible to a portfolio display vertically?
Thanks
Hey 0754ben84, this would require some modding as of now – however stayed turned for the next update 
Hi Guys,
Now the update is here, can we do the vertical portfolio?
Thanks
Hey Ben, the new portfolio styles are shown in the new demos – there’s a portfolio slider which transitions vertically and a new constrained masonry layout

Presale question; This theme looks great, but I’m concerned with the update frequency(last updated 31 October 2016) and lack of support for the latest version of Wordpress? Are you busy working on a new theme, or what is your update schedule?
Hey digitelle, there is only one minor known issue with WP 4.7, a single Salient theme option has been hidden, which will be fixed in the upcoming release. The update due out next is major, which is why there’s a longer than normal gap Usually updates are released every other month (or more if needed for bugs). However, this update will be the largest Salient has ever received – so it’s taken some time to ensure things were done right
Cheers!
Thanks for your reply. It’s refreshing to see so many clever and elegant designs within a single theme. I’m very much looking forward to your next update. Cheers
Thanks a lot! You won’t be disappointed
Hello!
Is it possible to edit the theme without publishing the changes? I’ve googled around a bit, but I was just wondering if you had anything to recommend?
Thanks!
Hey ThatSomeone!
Could you be more specific by what you mean by “edit the theme”? Are you referring to pages created with the Salient VC or actually editing the core theme files?
Cheers
Ah sorry for being a bit unclear! I just purchased the theme(haven’t had the time to install yet) and I was wondering if it was possible to build and edit pages without them going live publicly on the current page? I doubt anyone will be on the page while I perform the changes, but just in case.
Hello, I am using salient 7.0.8 . When i try to display 3 coloums product on a page then is showing 2 columns on my 1920×1080 desplay. its showing correctly 3 columns when i minimize the width.
http://serenity-fashion.com/sale/ http://prntscr.com/e2kyml Also bottom of the page i need navigation links like the shop page http://prntscr.com/e2l08uPlease fix the issue.
all over the site in 1920×1080 display products layout is not correctly.
Hey serenityfashionuk,
Please see my response to your previous comment in regards
Cheers
Hi guys,
Is there anyway i can get a single row to become full height WITHOUT using the activate full screen row option at the bottom of the page. Eg if i wanted a row with an image(logo) heading and sub heading text to become full screen, how could i get that.
Also, is there any way of getting a logo or image inside the image/video headers in addition to the text heading and sub heading??
Hey bachuramadhikari,
1. The option for this is coming in the upcoming update – for now you can get close to that by using % padding values on the row. E.g. 20% for the top/bottom row padding will yield a responsive tall row
2. For now not without some custom modding but i’ve noted the idea for the wishlist
Cheers

However since you’re on an earlier version of the theme I would recommend updating to avoid conflicts with the current WooCommerce

It only happens when the child theme is activated.
Hey tricks28, what files do you have inside of your child theme?
Cheers
Hi, How can I stick a central menu to the top? I don’t want that disappears when scroll goes down… thanks!
Hey,
In your Salient options panel > header navigation > animation effects tab – turn off the option for “hide header until needed”
Cheers
thank you for your quick reply!!
You’re welcome!
After a WP update, the cushion on my header (where the logo is) changed. Now, the header is covering up the top of my picture. I have decreased the Header BG Opacity from 100% to 1%, but I would like to find a way to leave the overlay at 100% and move the picture back down to where it was. Please help. (site is meisabonelli (dot) com.
Hey MillennialTax,
It seems you currently have the permanent transparent header option on, could you please turn that off so I can see the behavior you’re referring to in order to assist?
Cheers
It has been removed. Please advise?
Hey, do you have this added into your custom css box?
#header-space {
height: 0px !important;
}
No,, but I will double check to see if that’s been added. The developer fixed the home page. Now, I need to do the same and fix the footer on the about page here – http://www.meisabonelli.com/about/.
Hey, could you let me know what specifically is wrong with the footer on that page? At first glance i’m not seeing anything out of order http://imgur.com/a/Sv35c
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it a million more times… BEST theme I’ve used EVER!!
I’m hoping you will be able to help me out, not sure if this is possible or not.

http://neileverosborne.com/stills/commissions/kayapo-territory-with-energy-home-solarMy question, is it possible to use the whole thumbnail image as a button to activate the ‘view larger’ affect or is it limited to the button only?
Thanks for your help.
Cheers, Alan
Hey Alan!
Without css modding, you could easily use of the other image grid styles which offers a full thumb link
Hi ThemeNectar,
I was able to change the grid style to (Meta on hover + entire thumb link) which did make the whole thumbnail a link but it also remove the ‘View Larger’ button. Is there a way to use the ‘Meta on hover + entire thumb link’ grid style but keep the ‘View Larger’ button?
Your help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers, Alan
This link: http://neileverosborne.com/stills/portfolio-people-and-planet
Has the ‘Meta on hover + entire thumb link’ style activated but as you can see the ‘View Larger’ button is not appearing.
Cheers, Alan
Hey – that’s correct, the only style that offers the text button is the first one. Keeping it while having a full link would require some custom modding
Hi themeNectar,
how do i remove the padding of the header from top, its annoying with the transparent background of the menu
cheers
Hey selassie75, turn on the “use transparent header when applicable” option in the Salient options panel > transparency tab to have the transparent header show up correctly
I am having issues with activating the Salient Visual Composer Plugin. How do I activate and without getting an error.

Hey Salient.
On the portfolio section, we’re using Custom Content Grid Item Content so we’re able to open the portfolio content in a new tab.
The only issue is that the links are not opening on a new page, they’re opening in the same page. How can I add the target blank attribute so the portfolio items can open in a new tab?
/
<?php
//custom content
if($using_custom_content == 'on') { if(!empty($custom_project_link)) echo '<a target="_blank" href="'.$the_project_link.'"></a>';

Hey spark_agency, glad to hear you’ve found the solution
What’s the suggested method using Salient to make font sizes responsive between large and small displays? The only units inside Settings/Typography seem to be px and I’m presuming that we don’t have to resort to messy custom CSS on a fully responsive theme?
I have a web page layout in dev that looks beautiful on 1920×1080 resolution but absolutely awful on 1366×768 with header text overlapping the logo at the top and body text too large for that screen size.
I don’t want to just turn down the font size globally, as that’ll make the text smaller on large displays and give too much empty space!
Could adding em / rem units be part of a future theme update?
Hey paulfpTC,
Please share your URL in regards so I can take a look at your settings. There is responsive logic for h1-h4 tags in the theme but body text and header nav sizing are not changed from large to small desktop monitors.
I’ve noted your +1 for the idea for em sizing though
Cheers
Hey, thanks for your help
The URL is www.telecomscloud.com – it looks lovely on a Full HD monitor (1920×1080) and I’ve managed to add custom CSS as you’ll see to make it look better on smaller laptop screens (1366×768).
I’m struggling to make it look decent on my Nexus 5X, and I presume the font size is too large on other smartphones too. I’m no expert in media queries and responsive design My friend’s laptop has a resolution of 3200×1800 with a browser screen size of 1280×630 and the heading is all overlapping the logo on that too 
It also didn’t cope well when I tried it on a 1920×1080 projector where Windows 10 had decided (in the display settings) to scale everything up by 150%! Argh!
On a slightly different note… I’m using secondary navigation and for some reason although that disappears correctly when you scroll on mobile, the main menu doesn’t move all the way to the top of the screen. Not sure if that’s something I’ve caused with my modifications? I followed your advice in another comment to cause that to go transparent when scrolling, and added that in via a little custom plugin.
Hey,
The problem is that you’re using a Nectar Slider for this – you have a lot of text in there and with the design you’re trying to achieve, it’s not a suitable solution. You should use a regular visual composer row set to full width background. You can add your video BG in there but also set top/bottom row padding to always keep the correct space between your header as you’d expect
Cheers
ah ha, thanks for the tip! I’ll give it a go
hmmm, is it possible to do what I need with a regular Visual Composer row?
I want the first row only to be full height, but I can’t see any options on the row itself to turn on full height, only the page-wide setting to make all rows full height.
Thanks
The option for a single row to be full height is coming in the update due out shortly – for now to get a similar result just set the top/bottom row padding with percent values – e.g. “10%”
