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?

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

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?
Cheers
This is what I want to achieve: http://i.imgur.com/7H5eg5f.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

Hello Team,
Thanks for creating such a great theme where we can design and develop anything, I have one query related theme.
So, I have find live previews on http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-promo/ when we click on demos on the top right hand side it’s giving URL like http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-promo/#demos and moving down till demos but adding #demos into the URL.
How to keep same URL without changing it to #demos? Can you please provide me some solution for Salient Theme because one I want to keep URL same without adding #demos into the end of the URL.
Thanks, Prince
Hey Prince,
The only way to achieve that would be to use Page Full Screen Rows with the option for “Add Row Anchors to URL” left unchecked. In a default animated anchor setup, there’s no way to remove the anchor
Cheers
Thanks for your reply
It’s only for pages but if I want to use the same in Woocommerce Single Product then it’s not working.
i.e I want to link with #description #reviews #enquiry etc. so If I am adding that in URL as of now it’s changing main URL structure where I don’t want to change URL structure as it’s breaking down other functionality when #anchor link comes in the end.
Want to keep same product URL without adding #anchor in the end.
Have you tried just making your anchor links with the full URL? i.e. instead of using ”#anchor” entering “http://domain.com/#anchor”?
Cheers
Hi again
This isn’t directly related to your theme, but I was wondering if you could expand on how background videos on mobile are treated? I know in Salient it’s not supported, but why is this exactly?
I was browsing through Twilio’s website today, https://www.twilio.com and I noticed that even on mobile the background video plays (my mobile FHD screen but you can just resize your browser on desktop and it will still play).
To get something like this working in Salient I know it’s custom development. I just wanted to ask for clarification on autoplayed videos on mobile, I always thought it wasn’t possible but it works on Twilio’s website just fine.
Thank you
Hey b167er,
Video autoplaying on mobile was just introduced (with limited capabilities) on iOS10, on older versions it’s still not possible. The wishlist item to also add this support on the todo list
Cheers
Interesting, so did it just come out on Android 7.0 too? Because the twilio website works on my Pixel with the video bg. I checked the Google dev website and they still have articles about video bg’s being blocked on mobile, so I’m not too sure what’s going on.
But it would be nice to one day have this feature working with Salient 8.0 – that would be pretty crazy.
Thanks again for the Studio. It’s saved me countless hours already.
Hey, yes – it’s fairly new for both as far as I’ve seen
Also, glad to hear you’re making good use of the studio
Cheers
Hi. I have installed 2 demos from Salient.
First, I installed Frostwave and then work on it for a bit. However, I looked at another demo, Corporate and I decided that it suits me better. So, I installed the Corporate demo.
However, after I installed the Corporate demo, I don’t know how to use the Corporate style and replace the original Frostwave style.
How can I implement the look and visual style of Corporate onto the website I am working on?
Please show me the way! Thanks!
Hey boonhoelow,
The theme options should have been imported when you imported the demo from the importer – could you please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can take a look at what’s going on themenectar.ticksy.com/

Hi there,
I believe you have an issue that many people are facing for pagination. Basically when you try to go to the second page, users will get a 404 error if they have a custom permalink.
The issue is in your functions.php file on line 4808: $format = empty( $permalink_structure ) ? $query_type.’paged= #%’ : ‘page/ #%/’;
You need to add a backslash to the ‘page/ # /’; $format = empty( $permalink_structure ) ? $query_type.’paged= #%’ : ’/page/ #%/’;
Right now any url is combining the category name and the “page” word to one so you will have domain.com/category/categorynamepage/1 instead of domain.com/category/categoryname/page/1
I can’t send this as a private ticket since our support has expired, but thought I’d let you know anyway.
Hey media_cause,
Instead of making that mod, you just need to make sure you have a trailing slash in your custom permalink definition
Cheers
v8 looks great! Nice work. I’m on 8.0 and SVC 5.0.1. Am I missing buttons on the Edit Slider page? https://www.dropbox.com/s/shba3ibj0thjrrj/Sailent%20Create%20Slide.jpg?dl=0
I believe it was a W3TC plugin conflict. Removing it brought back the buttons. I downgraded from v8 and will upgrade again shortly. I believe that it work properly.
Hey NickZee,
Sounds good – let me know if you encounter any issues
Cheers
Hello Nectar, Is Salient 8 compatible with php 7.0.17? Those slider alignment buttons are missing again. I can’t seem to pin down a reason. I’ve deAs I mentioned before, disabling W3TC made the buttons come back, then they disappeared again (without W3TC). Today I disabled each plugin one by one, and after disabling Wordfence the button reappeared… until I saved the Slide, then they disappear. I deleted Wordfence completely and still have no buttons. Here’s a current screen shot. It’s the bottom half of the page. https://www.dropbox.com/s/4eb4ictpxx7okng/Capture1.PNG?dl=0 I’m perplexed.
Hey, could you reach out with your admin credentials from the contact form on my author page so I can take a look what’s going on? https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Hey Salient, I’m not sure if was part of the the update, but the following CSS seems to be missing from the main stylesheet for the LInkedIn social icon:
.fa-linkedin:before { content:””\f0e1””; color: #xxxxxx; }
Hey pmprkb, the css that sets that icon should be contained within the fontawesome stylesheet – could you share your URL so I can see why it’s missing for you?
Cheers
I have the navigation logo changing color depending on the row attribute (dark/light), but the navigation titles ie: about etc are staying black. Is there a reason they are not changing with the logo image color?
I have the navigation items set to black to begin.
Thanks.
Sorted it out! Problem solved.
Hey, glad to hear you sorted it!
Cheers
How can we display an “estimated reading time” in post metadata, like Medium.com posts have? (We can get the calculation ourselves if need be – just need to know how to input it for the theme to display it in post metadata.)
Hey jasonkylefrank,
Could you share your URL so I can see what blog and single post styles you’re using?
Cheers
ThrivingCreator.com
Thanks!
Hey, in the functions.php file search for the page_header function, within that you can find the meta section by searching for a div with the id of “single-meta”
Cheers
Ok, so I could put a new span there to display it… but what about capturing the value when I’m editing the post… does the theme have some input box to capture that value (which I would manually calculate myself)? Thanks
Hey, sorry for the delay – a new metabox specifically for this would require some custom development. You can take a peek at the files in nectar/meta to see how the current ones are created
Ok, thanks for the info.
Cheers

Hey Pat,
Have you confirmed this only occurs when Salient is the active theme and is your WooCommerce version up to date?

I am using salient 8, and the pages load a boxed layout just before showing the full screen images. Is there a way for it to stop trying to default to boxed layout?

Hey, you rocket loader script from cloudflare is moving a script that’s normally loaded before the page is rendered into the end of the document. The intentions for this are to speed up the content rendering, but it’s creating that effect you’re seeing which otherwise wouldn’t occur
I think I found the theme I’ve been looking for! took me a week to find you
basically I was looking for a theme that supports RTL yet has section scrolling that stops at end of each section. Am I on the right page?

Hi, I am having trouble with the masonry / classic enhanced blog. When I look at it, it chops off the blog title and excerpt. If I inspect it (using chrome), then it magically expands to be the correct height and so I can’t see what the issue is.
The page, I am having trouble with is https://www.discovergrandprix.com/f1-news-brief/
If you look at it in Safari it won’t show up due to a minification error. I am aware of that and will fix it in the future, but this is my priority. Please help.
Hey johnlmccurdy,
I actually can’t view the page on my end via Chrome due to the minification error at the moment, could you kindly disable that temp so I can check the issue to assist?
Cheers
I solved this. We use the WP Rocket caching plugin. On that individual page I turned off JS Minification. It annoys me that we lose a micro second of page load time just to make it more beautiful.
Hey, minification can be handled in many different ways – the method that that plugin is using must not be keeping the scripts in the same order. We’ve tested with W3TC and BWP minify (which we used on the demo) and offer guides here: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/performance-optimization-guide/
Cheers
