Hello, Any idea why the addition of “rtMedia for WordPress, BuddyPress and bbPress” causes my footer widgets to display incorrectly? When the plugin is active, all of the footer widgets are aligned left and stacked on each other. When the plugin is deactivated, the footer widgets appear normal. Thanks in advance..
Hey hivesoftware, please share your URL in regards so I can take a look
Cheers
Sure thing. ganjaly.com
Hello, any updates on this?
Hey – the plugin is adding css that’s not contained to the plugin namespace. Add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel to sort it
#footer-outer .clear-both {
clear: none;
}
Perfect! Thank you as always 
You’re welcome 
hi
you have thought of a floating menu like this: https://codecanyon.net/item/touchy-a-wordpress-mobile-menu-plugin/6961708in mobile view?
it’s compatible with salient?
Hey fabiodimar, Salient offers an option to make the mobile menu sticky currently – but if you prefer that design, I can’t say whether or not it’s compatible. If you experience any issues just let me know 
Hi guys. I was wondering if Salient is now able to do something like this ( Floating Columns ) -> http://puzzlerbox.com/levelup/floating-columns/. And if not, is there any plan to add to the roadmap? Would be great to have this effect. Thanks.
Hey estudisimple!
I have noted the idea for the wishlist

Tried updating my salient theme using the envato plugin and it just keeps failing. How do i fix this?
Installing Theme from uploaded file: themeforest-4363266-salient-responsive-multipurpose-theme-wordpress-theme.zip Unpacking the package…
Installing the theme…
Destination folder already exists. /home/content/p3pnexwpnas12_data02/78/3803878/html/wp-content/themes/salient/
Theme install failed.
Hey JokerMartini,
Are you using the Envato toolkit or the Envato market plugin?
Cheers
I’m using Envato Market plugin.
It would appear that your server is not allowing the plugin permission to delete the currently installed theme – I would reach out to your hosting company in regards

on your photography demo, any plans for a vertical menu?
Hey mykipierre, you already can have left or right aligned menu in combination with any of the demos
An example of that menu can be seen here http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-business
Can i Import more than one DEMO from the demo importer at the same time? Like can I import a second demo after importing a first demo??? because I want some pages from the first demo and a few other pages from the second, is that possible?
Hey pinkfeets, for now you’d have to import multiple demos – but in the upcoming update this will be simplified and easier 
I’m afraid that users will not navigate to the end of the page on the mobile, because to scroll to the next “slide” the person has to give two scrolls.
Can you disable this in Mobile? Leave site with default scrolling? Or make it more sensitive?
I am talking about this example: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-service/
Hey,
There is indeed an option to disable the full page functionality on mobile – if you don’t see this option in the page full screen row metabox you’ll need to update your version of Salient

Hello,
Yesterday I bought one of your themes, but it was a problem with my purchase, I had bought it with my account and not with the account i should bought it. Then I made a Refund request, but I didn’t have any response yet, so today, I decide to cancel the refund, but i don’t know how to do it. I have tried today to download the theme i have purchased, but it didn’t download, I guess is for the refund process.
Please I need help, I need to use the template as soon as possible.
Than you.
Hey instintocreativo, if you contact Envato here and explain the situation they will be able to sort it out for you
https://help.market.envato.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
thank you!
You’re welcome 
I just bought this theme and I dont know where to find the purchase code because it keep showing wrong purchase code entered.
I cannot manage to install the theme to my wordpress I upload the main file cannot be upload, it shows please try again text. But I able to upload the child file.
Hey priscillapresleyng,
Here’s a guide on locating the purchase code: https://help.market.envato.com/hc/en-us/articles/202822600-Where-Is-My-Purchase-Code-
Also, in regards to the installation – have you followed the installation guide? http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/installation/
Cheers
Presales question: 1) If i buy the theme again:) is it possible to Import the landing page from the”photography” demo and then import other pages from other demos???? I dont want to install the whole demo because i like certain features from certain pages of several demos, is that possible?
2) if i take the photography demo landing page as an example (http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-photography/), can i attach links to the photos displayed so they can take the user to several places on the site? Can i also add on the landing page blog posts as well as certain products from ecommerce shop all looking in the mansory style layout on the landing page of the photography demo layout so they all mesh together same style?
Hey pinkfeets,
1. It will be possible in the upcoming update, but for now you’d need to import both demos
2. You can give each image a custom link to lead wherever needed, but there’s no way to automatically add products and blog posts in an image gallery as blocks – they’d need to be added in manually as images and then linked accordingly
Thank you for the reply:) LOVE Salient! Is it possible to add a custom url link to a portfolio image? Some portfolio images, I would prefer they land somewhere else, not the assigned portfolio page for the image. Is that possible?
When is your next update?:)
You’re welcome!
1. Yes – you can use the “External Project URL” option in the project configuration metabox
2. The end of this week
Hey Phil, it’s been a while!
Had a quick question,
For demo Salient Business (http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-business/)
On the homepage, there is a Contact Form 7:
“GET A FREE ESTIMATE TODAY What Are You Waiting For?”
I was wondering how you acheived this as I don’t understand how it was made using Contact Form 7 and how you were able to make all the inputs on one line.
Thanks!!
Hey Gareth!
It’s using the same technique as described in the docs for making fields go inline: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/importing-contact-form-data/
Cheers
Thank you for an amazing theme!
I wonder if you could hlep me with a problem on mobile. I’ve added a Quickview to your Woocommerce products shortcode (using carousel) on this page – http://www.site6.brisbne.pl/ (the products at the top of the page).
Quickview is working nicely on desktop view and tablet view when you click a product, however, on a mobile phone, the quickview lightbox doesn’t work. I’m thinking it’s a conflict with the carousel but I don’t get any errors in console – the quickview simply doesn’t activate on click. Is there some option that carousel does differently on mobile compared to desktop view that might block the quickview?
Thank you!
Hey Sean!
You’ll need to edit the productCarouselInit in the init.js file – as that carousel element changes the tap functionality on mobile devices and prevents links from triggering unless it’s a standard page link (to avoid accidental clicks when swiping on mobile)
Cheers
OK cool … so I’ve now added my quickview button div class (.jckqvBtn) to the productCarouselinit:
excludedElements: "button, input, select, textarea, .noSwipe, .jckqvBtn",
It’s working fine now! Thank you 
Glad to hear you got it! 
Cheers
Hey Guys,
I wrote a while back saying that the Salient Visual composer was not working well in my pages. I found out Yoast was the problem. Well the problem is back but only in portfolio items.
I can see the VC part, but there is always a shortcode text box above it (that old wordpress standard box). I can’t seem to edit my portfolio pages correctly.
I deactivated all my plugins, deleted the salient VC, reinstalled form scratch. Still nothing is working. It only seems to be doing that when I add a new portfolio item. If I edit an existing one. all is good.
Please help! P.S.: My support plan expired as mentioned last time.
Hey kpott,
Please reach out via the contact form on my author page with your admin credentials in regards https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Hi, I noticed that the plugin I’ve been using to display custom menus to different types of user, Nav Menu Roles, seems to no longer be working. Seems others have had this issue after upgrading to WP 4.7.x — see here and here.
I’ve confirmed this seems to be an incompatibility with Salient as it works as expected when I switch over temporarily to a default WP theme. I can temporarily fix this by installing this tiny plugin as a patch, but would be great if it could also be fixed in an upcoming Salient update
Thanks!
Hey bschlagel,
Thanks for letting me know 
Cheers
Is it possible to create a homepage that doesn’t have the navigation? A client has me creating this unique homepage but after entering the site she wants the navigation menu to appear.
Hey,
Add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:
.home #header-outer, .home #header-space {
display: none!important;
}
I am trying to create a button in my navigation menu for a donation page, I have added the class to the menu in the WP dashboard and applied styling, but it’s not working. Am I doing something wrong?
Hey,
Salient will offer an actual option to select header button styling in the upcoming update – it’ll be out in a few days 
Cheers
Hi Guys,
Got an issue on my blog.
I’ve just added adsense to my site and I’m getting the code appear in the excerpt in the blog page.
Please see image: http://www.petcheckers.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/adsense-issue.jpg
Can you help?
Thanks
Hey 0754ben84,
what plugin are you using to add that in?
Cheers
It’s WP Simple Adsense Insertion
It just gives you a shortcode to use
Hey, because you have it entered inside of a Visual Composer text block, VC is parsing it and adding it to the excerpt – this would occur outside of Salient just using VC as well. A workaround would be to remove it form VC and add it into the single.php file where desired to avoid this
Hi there, fantastic theme
I’ve spotted something with the mobile menu, not sure if it’s me or a small bug:
On mobile, when using the slide out menu if you go into a submenu and then close the menu (by pressing the X), when you open the menu again with the hamburger, it appears to be stuck in the submenu you left it on, the Back button doesn’t seem to work.
If you refresh or navigate to another page it’s fine because it loads the top level menu again and behaves as expected. It only appears to happen when you close the menu when you are within a submenu.
Hope that makes sense!
Hey Phacin8!
I can’t seem to replicate this on my end – could you kindly let me know what device you’re using and if you can also see it occur on the demo here? themenectar.com/demo/salient-ascend
Cheers
Hi there, thanks for coming back to me, I’m narrowing down the issue.
Some of the custom CSS I was using to fix another issue seems to have caused my problems.
So I’ve reverted and I’m now back to my original issue – the slide out menu doesn’t seem to format itself correctly in RTL languages. The Back button has some strange formatting across 2 lines and tucks itself up under the close (‘X’) button.
I’ve tried floating this button left so that is appears in the same place on the English part of the site but this is what got me to the original issue I posted about.
Any ideas please? 
Hey, could you please share the URL so I can take a look to assist?
Hi Guys. Salient Visual Composer is not working after update of Wordpress Core Software to WordPress 4.7.2. Is there an update of the theme to fix this ??
Hey evolvedublin, have you updated the theme & Salient VC to the latest versions (7.6 & 4.12.1)? And have you also verified that no third party plugins are causing this?
That did the trick ! Thanks guys.
You’re welcome
