Hello!

Is there any way to have a secondary navigation menu that only gets visible in the shop pages such as the shop page, products pages and category archives pages? I want to have a secondary navigation menu that only shows the product categories and it doesn’t have sense to be visible in other pages of the web.

Thank you very much in advance.

Hey allinagency!

Add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:

body:not(.woocommerce) #header-secondary-outer { display:
 none; }

Cheers

Thank you very much!

Now I have another problem. The social buttons appears in the secondary menu and I would want them to stay where they were, in the main navigation menu. How can I do this?

Thank you in advance!

Hey! Unfortunately they can only display in the main nav by default when not using the secondary nav – this would require some modding to the header.php file

Hi Guys,

Is there a custom css class that I can use to turn the Custom Heading into Gradient Text?

I know there is a gradient text option but I want to be able to control the size of the font which the custom heading allows me to do.

Thanks

Hey 0754ben84,

Unfortunately that’s no possible as of now – however you could easily control the size of the gradient text beyond what you’re setting for it in the typography options with css. If you can share your URL where the grad text element is used I could provide an example

Cheers

I’m having an issue with the portfolio templates after the latest update. When I import a template it imports a mirrored version into the VC builder. It only does this on the portfolio pages. Any idea what is causing it?

Hey, is this occurring only for your previously saved templates or does it occur for new templates and the Salient studio as well?

This happens on both new and old templates, but only on the portfolio pages. On both normal pages and blog posts the templates work correctly.

Hey, could you reach out in regards via the contact form on my author page so I can provide a fix? https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Hello!

How to make “back to top” button bigger? I`m trying to change some css styles, but nothing happens.

Hey epitets! Kindly share your URL in regards so I can see your settings to provide a snippet :)

Hey! Add this into the custom css box the Salient options panel:

html body[data-button-style*="rounded"] #to-top:hover i.fa-angle-up, html body[data-button-style*="rounded"] #to-top.hovered i.fa-angle-up.top-icon, html body[data-button-style*="rounded"] #to-top.hovered i.fa-angle-up {
    -webkit-transform: translate(0,-49px)!important;
    -ms-transform: translate(0,-49px)!important;
    transform: translate(0,-49px)!important;
}

Cheers

Hi, how do I put 4 fields in one row and 4 fields in another in the contact form plugin … please help thanks in advance !!

Hey prateek488, the docs cover a three column layout: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/importing-contact-form-data/ you would just need to change the span_4 to a span_3

Cheers

Hi, is it possible to achieve a similar hover effect to a column like in this site https://spigotdesign.com/services/ ? I can almost achieve this but the only setting that is missing is to add a text color for the hover. In the site I sent you the text and icon color is set to black and on hover the background becomes cyan and the text and icon color switches to white. Even if this is not possible yet, it would be a nice feature to add.

Hey, change your snippet to be this instead
body .wpb_column.hover-dark-to-light:hover .nectar_icon_wrap[data-style="border-animation"] .nectar_icon:not(.no-grad) i {
    color: #f9f9f9 !important;
}

Cheers

You are awesome my friend! It worked! Thank you so much for your time and the fantastic, all-powerful theme. Once I have my site live, I will post it here to see what I have done with your invaluable help. One recommendation for your awesome theme to make it even more awesome? Add a hover text color option in the column’s options so others can do what we did without using the above custom CSS. Thank you once again! All the best to you and your business.

Hey, thanks for the request – it’s been noted :)

Cheers!

Hi, I recently updated to the latest version but now anywhere I have a Gravity Form the styling has gone crazy, barely readable and all the fields are bullet pointed?

Thank you

See the bullet points on the fields – shows up elsewhere also

Hey, currently i’m not seeing that http://imgur.com/a/jGFET – have you changed the setup?

Hi, I am working on a client website that is using this theme. He’s using custom image thumbnails for his portfolio items. When using these custom thumbnail images, GTMetrix is flagging them and is giving a bad score. It is saying to “Serve scaled images”. I think since it’s scaling the 600×403 image with HTML/CSS, it’s not liking that. Is there a fix or a workaround for this?

Hey, the custom thumbnail doesn’t crop the image at all, it leaves the dimensions up to you – so in your case of the contained 4 col layout the only way to fix it (without creating a WP image size and applying it ) would be to reupload the images in the correct size. You’re supplying them at 600w http://www.jordanmillerdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/portrait_thumb.jpg but they could be served at 400w

Yeah we were aware it isn’t cropping the images. It’s scaling them. Also we were confused about the dimensions because the description for the thumbnail recommends 600×403: http://jordanmillerdesign.com/description.jpg I suppose we could re-upload them to 400w, but GTMetrix will still flag it since they’ll be scaled with HTML/CSS.

You can upload them as small as you want with as little over what is needed as you desire, the 600w is a base recommendation, which is more suitable for a 3 column or full width layout, in the case of your smaller layout it’s overkill. If you don’t want the portfolio to be responsive, you could use css to set a fixed width on the images, but that’s going to hurt you more than it helps as far as your users experience is concerned

Question in regards to my Salient theme (been a long time user of this theme). I’ve recently been adding more and more portfolio pieces and noticed something strange this morning. When I looked at the site today I noticed that my portfolio page: http://mindfordesign.net/portfolio/ has started to display really small thumbnails and that my fav icon is defaulting to a previous icon. Never seen anything like this before, I’ve tried regenerating thumbnails and that has not worked, all images I use are all the same format and size. Don’t know if this is a caching issue or what. Now when I use the “customize page” feature in WordPress it displays correctly, which is weird.

Yep, caching issue. It’s resolved itself now.

Hey rolltideroll1974, glad to hear you’ve sorted it :)

Hey, I’m suffering a slight glitch where my ‘recent projects’ element wont fully load. They sometimes do after a while but not for most of the time.

http://www.embeephotography.co.uk/ scroll to the bottom of the page.

Hey kitkana84,

Could you kindly reach out in regards with your admin credentials via the contact form on my author page? https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Can I know if its possible to custom Masonry Style? Like a 300×500 (regular) as compared to the 500×500 Default Sqaure based grid. :)

Hey! This would require modding to the nectar_add_image_sizes function in the functions.php file – after altering those sizes just run this plugin to create the sizes https://wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/

Cheers

How can I set a fall back font? I use a child theme

Hey, a fallback font for what group of selectors? i.e. which section in the typography options panel – could you also share your URL in regards?

Hey guys. Great theme!

I was wondering if it was possible to add the portfolio link to the portfolio title as well. You can see my site here http://mathiasarlund.com All i wanna do is add the option to click the “svendeprøve – 2017” and go to the same link as “View project” below it.

Best regards Mathias Arlund

Thanks Mathiasarlund!

As of now this would require modding to the nectar/tinymce/shortcode-processing.php file – search for
$project_style == 'fullscreen_zoom_slider'
to end up at the right section

Cheers

Hello,

Is there any way, to place the post title to the right of the page title?

I can see that themes’ ‘header.php’ has wp_title(”|”,true, ‘right’), indicating it should be set by default on the right side of the page title, but doesn’t work on my website.

I also tried setting: function wp_title( $sep = ‘»’, $display = true, $seplocation = ‘right’ ) in “wp-includes/general-template.php”, but this didn’t help.

I use child theme, for minor modification in the “footer.php”.

Thank you.

Hey Nectar,

Thank you for your reply, so how can I achieve to have the titles as they were before? Main Page | Sub page | sub page

And no “Tagline” in the website root?

Thanks

Hi Nectar,

Are you able to help?

Nope?

Wanted to drop a line to simply say thank you for the incredible support. I’ve never used one theme for so long without trying something new. It simply does everything. Once again, great job.

Hey arteest, thanks so much! That means a lot :)

Cheers

ISSUE with Bio Shown Fullscreen Modal function of team members when in boxed layout – when clicking the bio is layered BEHIND the sites boxed body content and not above… so not readable – any chance to fix this? :(

also please the possibility to link to external websites from team members / their bios? :)) keep up the good work!

Hey nadiavonscotti! 8.0.1 will sort that issue :) Thanks for the requests as well!

Heyyy AWESOME $alient Fam! curious if mobile view parallax was possible yet (or is but I wasn’t aware of) If so will buy another copy for new client who luvs mobile parallax as a #1 style element #THEMENECTARROCKS100!!

Hey sterlingwilliam,

It’s only active via the page full screen rows at the moment, but it will be available for all rows in the future :)

Cheers

Yeah full screen is ideal, for background images! So do I need to activate ‘mobile parallax/on’ or anything or it is by default (this is background row/image/full width background then?)

Hey! All you need to do is activate the page full screen row option: see this in regards : )http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/page-metaboxes/#fullscreenrows

Hello guys, I have a small doubt about the blog filters… is there any option to use a HORIZONTAL FILTER (just like the one in the portfolio’s option) in the blog shortcode? Instead of using sidebars? Thanks!

Hey mayronwf,

As of now that would require custom modding, but i’ve noted your +1 for the idea :)

Cheers
