Hi @ThemeNectar, my employer bought this theme and I am building a website using Salient theme. I wanted to know if I can make ordinary columns in #MASONRY? not the portfolio items and not the blog. just ordinary rows and columns, can I make this Masonry?
Hey zubair_mohsin,
As of now that wouldn’t be possible without custom development unfortunately
Cheers
Can you point me in a direction for custom development? It would be really helpful. Thanks 
Hey, I would recommend using https://studio.envato.com/ in regards

Hi there,
first of all this is one of the best user friendliest templates im using without having issues in the last years and must be said.
Im using the following code button code: [button open_new_tab=”true” color=”accent-color” hover_text_color_override=”#fff” size=”medium” url=”yourdomein.com” text=”yournamehere=” color_override=”“]
Im trying to make the link a no follow (rel=”no follow”) but this isnt working. Do you have any idea how to fix this?
Thanks ponchovogel!
As of now this would require using custom HTML -
<a rel="no follow" class="nectar-button large regular has-icon regular-button" href="https://www.youtube.com/user/ThemeNectar/videos" data-color-override="#0a0a0a" data-hover-color-override="false" data-hover-text-color-override="#fff"><span>View Now</span><i class="iconsmind-Triangle-ArrowRight" /></a>
Cheers
thank you!
You’re welcome 
Is there an easy line of CSS you can add to hide the header and footer on a specific page to essentially create a landing page?
Hey,
Yes – add this into the custom css box on the page :
#header-outer, #header-space, #footer-outer { display: none!important; }
Cheers
Actually, Safari also on the desktop doesn’t load the Home Slider. Seems like Safari might be the problem and not iOS.
I still haven’t heard about the issue with Safari on Desktop and Mobile not showing the Home Slider. Can you please tell me if there is a solution.
Hey daydreemer, it seems that the issue would be coming from you not providing an image for the slide – have you tried to upload one to verify this?
Is there a way to display my search results as a list “like most search engine results” vs using a grid?
Hey lindsayclineco, add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:
#search-results .result, .masonry-blog-item {
width: 100%!important;
display: block!important;
top: 0!important;
left: 0!important;
position: relative!important;
}
I am trying to make a full screen row WITH a background slideshow / slider. Is there a way to do this?
I have bought the Composium – Visual Composer Extensions, which allows for row background slider images. It works, however, when I choose the Page Full Screen Rows option from Salient, it does not work. Any ideas? Also, what if I only want one section to be full screen? NOT the whole entire page…?
Hey nickpucci,
1. Having a third party plugin that requires javascript to work in the page fullscreen rows option within Salient would require additional development, since the logic that sets the size in the plugin would need to be called again after Salients element initializes
2. The option for single fullscreen rows is coming in the upcoming update, which is due out very soon
Cheers
do you have the measurements or aspect ratios for masonry photos tall, wide, regular and tall&wide?
Hey nikita_a,
These are listed in the Salient options panel & the user guide

Is there a word limit for the page header subtitle section of each page? If not, each time I type in a quote, it appears and then disappears. Kinda odd…would think that it could handle at least 140 characters. Please advise.
Hey ppsadmin,
There should not be a limit to the characters in your subtitle – when you’re entering your quote are you adding in actual quotation marks with it? i.e.
"quote text here"
Cheers
Yup I am doing that and it keeps deleting.
You can’t use regular quotation marks in a text field – use the html symbols for the quotes i.e. http://pastebin.com/9002aWLm
Hello, my client is having problems on the nectar slide. Is there any way to put a white box behind the text? I tried using the caption background but it did not work very well.
Hey serenityfashionuk,
Could you share your URL so I can assist? 
Cheers
Hello, This is my site url http://serenity-fashion.com/product/large-button-down/ i want a hover image flipper functionality like the site http://www.dirtylittlestylebitch.co.uk/clothing/ on the single product page image. Current it has a image zooming functionality http://prntscr.com/e3r97h .Please tell me how can i get this functionality on my site on salient theme.
Hey serenityfashionuk,
Unfortunately that would require some custom development at this time
Cheers
Hi i really love your Salient Theme. Before purchasing i wanted to know if it takes alot of customization for me to make my website look like the link below. According to the source code they are using your theme. Also is it fairly easy to add a video to the header the way this website does or does it take some special file. I am a video editor so i should be able to. thanks so much http://lifemission.church/
Hey slpllc! I don’t see many sections in there that would require custom coding – mostly just Salient elements configured to their desired settings
As for the video header, they’re using a fullscreen nectar slider: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/sliders/#nectar-slider
Cheers
Thanks a lot….
You’re welcome 
Hello! Amazing theme 
Is maybe possible to completely switch off the responsive menu?
Thanks Fabilous!,
You’d need to disable the responsive design option for this – but that would remove all responsive behavior at the moment
Hi, one of my clients bought your theme and sent me the documentation link and it doesn’t work – it says service unavailable. Can you please check? Thank you.
Hey nikita_a, it should be online now – could you kindly try again?
Hi,
Since updating to the latest version on Salient – v7.6, I am unable to use Visual Composer. I am using Wordpress v4.7.2. Is this compatible and if not, when can I expect it to be compatible?
Lee
Hey Lee, there’s no known issues with the current Salient VC and WP 4.7.2, if you’ve already verified that no third party plugins you have are causing the issue please reach out via the contact form with your admin credentials on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar
I have tried to remove the categories from the blog headers but they are still showing up can you please help?

Hey columdevine,
add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:
body[data-button-style="rounded"] #page-header-bg[data-post-hs="default_minimal"] .inner-wrap > a {
display: none;
}
Cheers
Hi, I am having problem with the setting in equal row height. I have the row set to ‘Equal Height’ and Column Content Position ‘Middle’ but for some reason it is not reading it at all.
Hey secondmelody,
Could you please share the URL where this issue can be seen so I can assist?
Cheers
Hello! Do I need to buy the visual componser plugin to use this theme?
Hey filex2031,
Nope, it’s included with your purchase and can be installed via the appearance > install plugins tab
Cheers
Is there anyway to set the portfolio to not display the feature image when you click through? We would like to use the featured image as the cover, however the image doesn’t suit when we’re in the expanded information on each project.
Hey wabbage,
Yes – there’s an option for the this in the project configuration metabox in every portfolio item 
Cheers
Hi I got this theme from my client and she got it from the previous designer and I need help urgently! What is the best way to get in touch.

Please help!!!!
Hey ionela123,
There are page revisions in WordPress so you can go back in time on any page given you’re using a fairly current WordPress – can you share your URL in regards so I can take a look at the page?
Cheers
When using a YouTube video for the background on a fullscreen row it seems to be that for most first time visitors, the video doesn’t load unless they hit F5. Is there a fix for this or is it likely something I’m doing wrong?
Thanks in advance.
And to anyone reading this who is wondering whether they should buy this theme, the answer is YES YOU SHOULD!
Hey LostMarbleMedia!
Can I ask what version of the theme you’re using and if you could kindly share your URL so I can take a look?
Cheers
Sure, I’m using 7.6.
http://www.lostmarblemedia.com/The feedback was from a few visitors who had said that there was no video on the frontpage until they came back and then I asked a few people and some of them had the same issue but it always worked after hitting refresh.
It was an issue almost all of the time when navigating from the homepage to the About Us page with the About Us video almost never loading without hitting refresh.
Hey, sorry for the delay – could you let me know if it’s only when using a specific browser? As I have not been able to replicate this yet on Chrome on a mac
