when using the permanent side navigation, such as with http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-business/ is it possible to add any other content besides just the logo, menu, and social icons? For example, I’d like to be able to put the company phone number under the logo.

Hey, you can still add menu items normally, but there isn’t a header layout available that has a widget area directly under the logo, that would require modding to the header.php file

Part of the text get’s cut off on mobile. Is there a setting that is causing this?

Saw the issue with iPhone 7 and Google Pixel

Hey, it seems in your heading line you have html non breaking space entities – causing the browser to see the line as one word which prevents the clipped word from going onto its own line. Can you double check and remove those http://pastebin.com/g19ZiJ5v also – another way to fix it would be to slightly decrease the font size by a few px

Thank you for the new 8.1 update, I will test it out and let you know….

Regarding my last question about image hover effects… Can you please add that to your wishlist? It would be great if we can have some kind of hover effect on small images when we link to large ones. Right now when we link to a large image, it is just flat image. The only indicator is the mouse cursor changing to a “finger” click. It would be great to see some kind of visual effect.

Also, can you please focus more on the blog in your future updates? Like for example, it would be great to control the main content’s and the sidebars width and paddings. It would be great to add a separator line on the left of the sidebar to separate it from the main content.

It would also be great to see a new Next and Previous post option. I like how the portfolio is done. Maybe something like this for a blog?

New single post look would be appreciated too.

And more global options in the Salient settings. Instead of page by page options.

These are just quick wishlist suggestions :)

Thanks for the awesome support, I’ll keep you updated on the AMP issue.

HI Nectar, the AMP error is still not gone. Here it is http://imgur.com/a/qoWPV I am not sure if the error is in the same line of code or not but it is still there.

And Google is warning now that these AMP pages will not show up in search.

Hey, at this point I would really need to see the actual website since I can no longer get it to occur on my end and pushing the new version live has also fixed it on the corporate demo you initially found it on https://validator.w3.org/nu/?doc=http%3A%2F%2Fthemenectar.com%2Fdemo%2Fsalient-corporate%2F2013%2F01%2Ffacilisis-nulla%2F

I see, I will ask my boss and see if he would allow me to share the link with you. And no, I found the issue on Google Search Console’s Accelerated Mobile Pages section. The message on GSC is Critical Issue. Fix invalid AMP tags on your page to follow the AMP specifications. AMP pages with invalid AMP tags may appear in Google search results without AMP-specific display features.

Then I tested with https://search.google.com/search-console/amp and it said Missing URL for attribute ‘srcset’ in tag ‘amp-img’. then after testing with this tool I tested with w3c validation tool and saw that it was also giving error for the srcset.

When i look at the source code its empty like this srcset=”” not sure what needs to go here to. It is saying Missing URL for attribute ‘srcset’ in tag ‘amp-img’.

I have tried to upload a different image but that did not help.

The weird thing is its only 3 pages that give error. The rest of the pages are fine and they are validating with AMP testing tool

Hi, my VC sidebars no longer work after updating to v8. I see that others had the same problem but was this ever fixed? Please let me know what I should do… Thanks!

Hey RenderRebel!

I can provide the fix right now if you need it – just send me an email using the contact form on my author page :) https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Hello I added 2 links from 2 sites I took control of and wondering why one shows the Page builder and the other doesn’t? Any ideas

ten12design.com/screenimage/test2.png

Hey uppereast, have you scrolled all the way down in the site not showing it to see if the page builder metabox has simply been dragged after the others by chance?

Sorry but it is not there. Would you want to see if I gave you a password and username?

Yes, that would definitely help – kindly open a private ticket in regards https://themenectar.ticksy.com

baught the theme 3 years ago, but just got around to using it.

after installing it, it doesn’t have the demon importer option nor import/export option​

Hey, I’ll also need the URL :)

sent

Your URL is currently showing as a 500 internal server error – I can not access the wp-admin

Hi ThemeNectar, loving your theme! Thinking of buying again for another project of mine, want to ask you something.

Is it possible to create this exact layout https://www.coursera.org/specializations/jhu-data-science where we have the standard menu on top, then a floating sub-menu which scrolls to sections when click (eg. Courses, Creators etc.)

If yes I can buy right away ;)

Hey lucajosh!

That floating submenu would only be achievable if it were horizontal fixed to the top instead of on the side. For example: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-corporate/about/

Cheers

Is it possible to have the footer navigation be horizontal vs vertical?

Thanks!

Hey atplay2, do you have an example screenshot or URL of what you’re trying to achieve so I can answer more accurately?

Cheers

boom-studios.com. Their footer navigation is horizontal.

Thanks!

Hey,

The one column footer added in 8.0 would be the closest thing to this – further css could be used with this to move it around if desired

Cheers

Hi, the classic one page theme breaks when the a phone number is clicked on a mobile device.kindly help !! It goes blank

Hey prateek488,

Please share your URL in regards so I can see your setup to assist

Cheers

Is there the ability to offer a push and pull/source ordering option, as seen in Bootstrap or Foundation?

I can see the responsive offsets, but unsure this is what I actually need (it also doesn’t appear to work for columns inside full width content rows).

Basically, we should have the ability to decide in what order columns are stacked at certain breakpoints.

Visual Composer doesn’t offer this feature yet, but as soon as the plugin implements such a system – Salient will also

Cheers

Hi, I would like to know the dimensions of the images to be used for the following nectars (The best choice for my site to be optimized for loading) - Carousel - images galerie - Etc..

Is there a rule to know ?

thanks for your helping :)

Hey,

There’s no best size for the Nectar slider or image gallery, it depends on your settings i.e. the height for the nectar slider you’re setting and the width (full width or non). I would suggest you check out the performance optimization guide in regards since what you’re essentially looking for is how to optimize images for the web http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/performance-optimization-guide/

Cheers

I’m running into a minor issue and I need a solution. I thought this would be rather simple, but I have spent a good deal of time searching these comments hoping to find a similar scenario. I am trying to create a simple link/button that will trigger a image gallery to display. I will probably hide the gallery via css, but I need the link/button to trigger the image gallery to open. The gallery would contain a few images but will only be seen when someone clicks on the link. I would prefer this be done via prettyphoto lightbox. Is there an option I am missing for this? I can trigger prettyphoto to load, but only for a single image. I need several images to be loaded into the gallery. Below is a link to where I am trying to make this happen. – http://www.whitetailbluff.com/rates/ . Within the pricing table I have buttons that say “View Buck Photos”. When the user click’s on this, it will trigger the lightbox photo gallery.

Hey itmjustin,

Use magnific for your lightbox script – this can be set in the Salient options panel > functionality tab. Then for your custom gallery call, simply add the classes “magnific” and “gallery” to each of your desired gallery links

<a class="gallery magnific" href="#first"><img src="first.jpg" /></a>
<a class="gallery magnific" href="#second"><img src="second.jpg" /></a>

Cheers

I would like to include a CTA or button in my main navigation that draws the user’s attention. How can I do this? Web address is http://www.digitaalstappenplan.be

Hey RoaldL, please see the documentation in regards http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/header-button-links/

I don’t have a “menu styles” option. My theme is up to date. I checked all advanced menu options as active. What now?

Please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can log in and see what’s going on https://themenectar.ticksy.com

Hello, I would like to change the hover effect transparency for Portfolio Items. So far I changed the init.js but it seems that the file has disappeared with the last update. How can I change it now?

Hey Mr_Vly,

The init.js is still located in the same location inside of the js folder – could you share your URL in regard?

Cheers

Aaaah sorry I really don’t know what happened. So it’s still there. And I got my transparency back.

Thank you for your quick help!

You’re welcome :)

Hi there,

I have two issues and I has sent the tickets two days before, but it seems not be opened.

Can you take a look and help me fixed the issue?? This is urgent.

Thank you very much.

Beset regards,

Hey sliven0722,

I will take a look for your tickets and oversee them :)

Cheers

Hi guys,

Is it possible to change the size of the on the portfolio tiles for mobile as it’s tiny. Please see here:

Thanks

Hey,

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

@media only screen and (max-width: 1300px) and (min-width: 1000px), (max-width: 690px) {
.row .span_4 h3 {
    font-size: 35px!important;
    line-height: 35px!important;
}
}

Cheers

Hi,

Which module and grid element template should I choose to achieve the blog list look like on these pages: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-frostwave/blog-masonry-no-sidebar/ and http://themenectar.com/demo/salient/blog/

Thank you.

Regards Victor

Hey Victor, that’s a blog element used in the masonry style. You can set the masonry style from the Salient options panel > blog tab via the “Masonry Style” option. The first URL you’ve listed is using the “classic” style and the second is the “meta overlaid”

Is there a way to style the top navigation so that each button is highlighted with a box or some other shape vs just and underscore / underline?

I really appreciate the support.

Being that it’s client’s site that is a work in progress, is there a way I can send you the URL vs posting it publically?

Hey, you can open a private ticket in regards :) https://themenectar.ticksy.com/

Thank you. It’s “PRIVATE TICKET #1124614”. I’m so close to being able to mimic what I’ve designed in Photoshop in your theme. So close.

Hello, wondering what the smartest way is to add new functions to a Salient theme so that it doesn’t get overwritten by WP or Salient updates? Saw the documentation regarding Salient child themes, but also noticed the functions.php file in the child theme is very different. Anytime I add anything to it that works fine in the parent theme, it breaks within the child theme.

Thanks!

Hey misteraven!

The child theme would be the way to go – can you provide an example of a function that won’t work for you in there but does in the parent?

Cheers

I have embedded Instagram into a page, http://www.twotheking.com/media but when I am going on the backend to edit the page, I can’t edit the other rows/columns that have been setup. It appears that once I embed the Instagram code to display the Instagram feed, the other column/row, “Photos” and “Twitter” disappears. Here’s the link to the image http://www.awesomescreenshot.com/image/2317526/8c4ba4431f31ba69511c8870e60d6c3e.

Hey one9ooh6, there’s probably some script it’s loading which is causing the issue in the backend – have you tried to use the raw HTML element instead so it doesn’t parse in the editor?

I will try that.

Sounds good :)
