Good morning,
I noticed the widgetized sidebar is missing from the VC elements, any plans to replace it?
Also a few other items for a wish list…
When you have the mobile slide-out menu activated, you can’t choose a parent sub page if it has child navigation items- any way around it?
Any plans to update the Nactar shortcodes through the WYSIWYG (blue button next to the add media).
On some elements it ask for your color choices (accent-color, extra color1-2, gradients, etc), but it doesn’t have the gradients labeled correctly.
Lastly, you have a misspelling on the typography>Nectar specific elements the first option has two Ns “Nectar/Home Slider Heading FontSpecify the Nnectar Slider Heading font properties.” With the slider header is there an option to have the buttons (or the full slider image open a new tab)?
Keep up the great work, sorry for the long comment.
Cheers
Hey clixgroup!
1. It’s coming back in 8.0.1 – If you need it now just open a ticket on the forum in regards
https://themenectar.ticksy.com
2. The original mobile menu would need to be used for now http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/theme-options/header-navigation/
3. It’s possible, but we stopped adding new VC element shortcode features to the old shortcode gen to cut back on duplicate items for performance reasons
4. Thanks for letting me know!
Cheers
How can I add a Wishlist button right next to the Add to Cart Button in the Product page? I am using the Woocommerce Wishlists plugin, but it is inserting the button below the Add to Cart and it is a different size. I would like both buttons aligned in the same row and same size. Thanks
Hey superbrecs,
Could you kindly share your URL so I can assist with the needed css?
Cheers
Sure here you go: http://www.pretabeach.com/product/test-product/
I would like the Wishlist button to be side-by-side with the Add to Cart button and for it to inherit the same styling.
You can log in to backend here if necessary. L: admin Pw: Salient
Thanks!
Hey, add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:
#wl-wrapper .wl-add-to {
text-transform: uppercase;
letter-spacing: 1px;
font-size: 12px;
padding: 20px 45px!important;
transition: all 0.2s linear;
display: inline-block;
background-color: #3452ff!important;
}
#wl-wrapper.wl-button-wrap {
width: auto!important;
padding: 0 10px!important;
display: inline-block;
}
Hello, I updated my website theme to the latest version of Salient. http://whysatisfy.com/#Welcome
Along the bottom of the first full width row there is meant to be a client logo display, it is no longer visible since updating the theme.
If I turn off the Carousel feature for the client display the logos appear, but I need it to be a carousel because there are too many logos to show at once. Is there any fix for this?
Thanks
For anyone having the same problem I fixed it with this:
.caroufredsel_wrapper { height: 100px !important; } .carousel-wrap { display: block !important; }
Hey WhySatisfy, if you have a child theme active and have a copy of the header.php file in it, you need to update that to reflect the current parent version. Without doing so you will run into issues after updating
Cheers
Thanks changing that header file did the trick!
You’re welcome 
Hey quick question thanks, how do i center the secondary menu? i have the main menu and logo centered, would love to the have the secondary the same above it. Thanks! I would have just done the mega menu, but I have 14 sub menu items, and apparently cant stack them?? like 4 accross then below that another 4 accross? That seems crazy, whats the point in a mega menu if i cant fill it with lots of items.
this is a big problem, been on this big website for a week and now i find out i cant have more than 6 wide sub menu items. thanks!
Hey deeds88,
1. Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
#header-secondary-outer #social { display: none; }
#header-secondary-outer ul {
width: 100%!important;
text-align: center;
}
.sf-menu li {
float: none!important;
display: inline-block;
}
2. I’m slightly confused as to the layout you’re trying to achieve, can you share a quick screenshot?
Cheers
Hey, Thanks for that first code. I actually found some code that worked to center it but that looks better haha. Ok so for 2. If you go to www.customclothing.co.nz and hover over their ‘products’ menu item, it shows a mega menu that we are trying to achieve. ie. 6 columns wide, and 2x rows down. Anyway I can sculpt the mega menu into that shape with css?
Thanks for your time. version 8 salient is looking great! Sort out your mega menu, like integrate uber or something and it will add a LOT of value to the theme and make more peoople buy it.

Hey, that’s already possible in Salient – have you checked out the documentation in regards? https://themenectar.ticksy.com/article/9655/

Hey Phil quick question,
One of my fans noticed that my portfolio section shows the title of each Character intermittently when you hover over them. That only started happening after this latest update.
Any thoughts?
csmurphy.com
thanks

Hey CS,
I can only see the first (latest) project not showing the title – do you have any specific information on a browser or device that could be used to replicate the issue?
Cheers
It seems to be only happening with Firefox. All the other browsers are fine.
Hmm, I still can’t get that occur – any specific version of FF?
I need to add a standard header image to the blog page that displays all of the blog entries. How would I do that?
Lastly, is it possible to have the same image in the header for all blog entries.
Hey, you can set an archive header image in the Salient options panel > blog > styling tab – there’s no way to set a static image for the blog single posts header though without custom modding
Hi. Thanks for your nice theme. I am going to use Homeslider because I can adjust slider animation speed. When you update new Salient theme, Could you add an option that can enable full height for Homeslider or option that can adjust slider animation speed for Nectarslider?
Hey mcpsa,
I’ve noted these ideas for the wishlist 
Cheers
Great theme again! Found a couple bugs on the theme, would like to report them so you can improve the theme, but will not be buying support as this is just me delivering a message to you.
The testimonials shortcode has a field labeled quote=”” when you put links in that field using VC it breaks because the Double Quotes in the links.
The Staff shortcode has issues with row backgrounds on the same page
Thanks webaholicsteam!
1. Have you tried to use single quotes in your anchor attribute?
2. Anyway you could share a URL so I can check what settings you’re using?
Cheers
Sorry wrong theme, nevermind.
No worries
Hello Nectar, I hope you are doing well! I’ve used Salient for a few years and seem to always struggle with the image gallery looking presentable on the front end. I feel the Image Gallery Settings are straight forward enough, but the results are not as expected. I know my support period is over, however, I would not need this guidance if there wasn’t a conflict between the image gallery settings and what’s shown on the front. I’ve spent a couple hours on this, searching, testing, and writing this is my last resort.
I have Touch Enable & Spaced Image Gallery a Row set to Full Width Content. Images in the gallery were exported at 1000×667, “Image Size” is 600×400. However, on the front the images are 1287×827 and very soft, fuzzy, blurry etc. I noticed the css for flickity view port is 943px and on your demo it’s 582px. I feel that from these settings I should achieve similar results to your demo linked above but clearly something is being ignored or overridden on the front.
I’m not sure what’s going on.
I’ve also increased my medium thumbnail size in WP and regen’ed thumbnails but that didn’t seam to help.
Do you have a video, or docs outlining how to use the image gallery? Can you share the setting from that slider on your demo?
Hey NickZee,
Could you please share your URL in regards where the issue can be seen so I could assist?
Cheers
keenlightcreative.com in the section under portrait photography. I’ve had to switch from flickity to Nectar Style because the image quality is better on the front.
Unnecessary use of !important throughout the parent theme’s CSS makes child theme development very frustrating.
Hey cjweb, anything can still be overwritten via a child theme – for the !important values you can also use !important to take priority. Let me know if you need assistance with anything specific
Cheers
Hi the gradient overlay or the overlay at a page section is not working anymore with chrome on firefox is all right but on chrome there is no gradient
thank you for your help daniel
Hey Danielmm1997,
Please share your URL so I can take a look to assist 
Cheers
Thanks, which of the sections on that page is supposed to have the gradient overlay?
the first you see it when you open the page in firefox and in chrome black gradient
now it is working 
Hey, glad to hear – let me know if it acts up again 
Hi,how can I change the menu colors in the header? thanks http://www.amunochi.cl/
Hey tingundan, in the Salient options panel > header navigation tab via the “Header Color Scheme” option http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/theme-options/header-navigation/
Cheers
thanks!!!
You’re welcome 
Hey guys, what an awesome theme! Any plans on adding a “Top header bar” option? There’s a lot of cases when we want to add a phone number or some text above the main menu header. Thanks!
Nevermind, found it as Header secondary nav!
Hey, glad to hear! 
Hello there,
I have 2 questions:
1. How can I display the post titles before the featured imgs?
2. How can I disable fixed header/secondary-header on specific pages (I would like to have it disable on blog pages, but enabled everywhere else in the site).
Thanks a lot!
Hey jobouchard!
1. This would require modding to the files within includes/post-templates
2. Add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:
.single #header-outer, .single #header-secondary-outer {
position: absolute;
}
Cheers
I’m having a real hard time trying to make edits. The visual composer takes anywhere between 2-5 seconds to load nearly anything. Esp text boxes. Are there any ideas as to why?
Hey noantsinmypants,
Could you please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can log in and take a further look at your setup? https://themenectar.ticksy.com

Hi, is there a way to reset the Love counts? I don’t want to create news posts and do copy & paste, because i have nearly 100 posts.
Maybe diretcly in the MySQL-Database via phpmyadmin?
Thanks
Hey karamurad,
You can find the values in the database by searching for a wildcard with “love” in the “wp_postmeta” table
Cheers
Hello -
I have my homepage set to the most recent blog posts and was wondering if there was a way to invert the blog post title link color form the primary accent (#fe5e4c) w/ grey on hover, to grey text with the primary color (#fe5e4c) on hover instead.
Is this something that can be added to the custom CSS box?
Thanks!
Hey Andrew_McNelis, add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel
.blog-recent a {
color: #333!important;
}
.blog-recent a:hover {
color: #fe5e4c!important;
}
Cheers!
Thank you, applied but doesn’t seem to be working. Could this be because it’s masonry vs. standard style? Have it on test site here: nlwtestsite1982.biz
Hey! Change the above snippet to this:
article.post .post-header h2 a {
color: #333!important;
}
article.post .post-header h2 a:hover {
color: #fe5e4c!important;
}
That did it. Thanks!
You’re welcome 
Hi Nectar!
How can I have a fixed bottom row?
I tried this but the the content inside the row overflows to the outside using “Full Width Background”.
#fixed {
position: fixed;
left: 0;
bottom: 0;
z-index: 999;
}
Hey devlicence!
Could you share the URL in regards so I can assist?

This is what I want to achieve: http://i.imgur.com/7H5eg5f.jpg
I tried doing this: http://i.imgur.com/a353zvz.jpg
I don’t have this on a live site so, this is only the code I can provide. I put this on the last row.

Hey, this is occurring because assigning a fixed pos will pull it out of the normal container, you’ll need that add that width def back in:
#fixed .span_12 {
max-width: 1200px;
margin: 0 auto;
}
It worked! Thank you very much!
You’re welcome 
Hi. thanks for nice theme. After an update to 8.0 column responsive option(hide on device) doesn’t work perfectly on some screen size. Could you check my webpages and tell me how to fix it?
- Here are two broken parts url. You can notice it when resize your browser width. 1. http://home-port.kr/#main_worth 2. http://home-port.kr/about/
- It works perfectly before updating to 8.0
Hey mcpsa,
This is a known issue and will be fixed in 8.0.1 – if you want it now – add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
@media (max-width: 1299px) and (min-width: 1000px) {
.vc_hidden-md {
display: none !important;
}
}
Cheers
Wow~ So great! It works! Thank you so much! I hope v8.0.1 coming soon. Cause there are issues about icon and pre/next buttons for video light box too. They don’t show up. Anyway Thank you. Love this Theme!
You’re welcome 
Please run a sale so you can reach the first row… 
Hey nmig, as I mentioned since there was just a sale that lasted a long time there’s not going to be one for a little bit again
Cheers
