Any news on when the PHP7 compatibility update is set to be released? Emailed twice as per your recommendation but so far no reply..

Hey, sorry about that! I reached out in regards this morning :)

I have an issue with display of recent items portfolio on my home page…. www.takeheeddesign.com

It is set to show 8 items (eg 2 rows) however when one of these is a masonry double width item, it pushes the 8th item onto a row by itself.

Not sure if i can fix this with settings or just alter the total to display to 11 or 7 *which I’ve done for now).

Thanks in advance

Hey, there would be no other way to solve that other that changing the column gird as a wide masonry item counts as 2 projects (space wise)

Hey, I see I am having the same issue your demo is, and can’t seem to get a work arround, on this demo right here http://preview.themeforest.net/item/salient-responsive-multipurpose-theme/full_screen_preview/4363266 the portfolios are not displaying correctly, only some of them, 3 to be exact, and so is my site, even though I have arround 20. Some categories aren’t even displayed in the porftolio shortcode to be selected.

Any idea why?

Hey, I can’t replicate the issue of only three items showing on that URL – can you please let me know the specifics of your browser version/OS?

Cheers

I am using Chrome and Windows 10

Thanks, and in your browser settings > about tab what is the version of Chrome?

How can i permanently disable the comments in the portfolio? I have hide them with css but spammers are still leaving spammy comments.

Hey, you’d need to remove the comments_template() function calls in the single-portfolio.php file

Cheers

You use at the demo page (http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-slider-portfolio/) W3Total Cache and this site got a pagespeedrank of 80. How did you reduce the blocking scripts? In the sourcecode there are all css included into one. Do you use a special plugin or configuration? Best regards from a happy salient user.

Hey Check95,

Please see the documentation in regards http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/performance-optimization-guide/

Cheers

Thanks for the url, but the BMP Minify Plugin makes an error in frontend: Unexpected token < The stylesheet is also broken but I followed your tutorial…

Could you kindly share your URL in regards or have you deactivated it?

Hi Guys,

Please take a look at this page on my site;

http://responsivetwentyten.com/what-we-do/web-design/

The text in the 3 columns under the hero image is tiny when viewed on tablet in landscape view.

How can I make it normal size?

Thanks

Hey 0754ben84,

Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:

@media only screen and (max-width: 1300px) and (min-width: 990px) {
body .full-width-content .wpb_column .wpb_row .wpb_column:not(.vc_col-md-12), body .full-width-content .wpb_column .wpb_row .wpb_column:not(.vc_col-md-12) p {
    font-size: 16px;
    line-height: 28px;
}
}

Cheers

Hi,

On a layout like this: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-service/

IS it possible for the full height rows to scroll horizontally instead of vertically?

Hey Micatuca,

Unfortunately not without some custom development as of now

Cheers

No worries, thanks anyway

You’re welcome :)

menu without background

Hey parimat, can you please elaborate on what you’re curious of about that feature?

Thank you for the quick reply!, working fine now.. How do i make the main menu fix? (i dont want i to scroll down with the page on the inner pages.. (only on the home page).

Hey glad to hear! Please see my response to your previous comment in regards :)

Cheers

Hello there :) I saw that some sites have a kind of anouncement bar at the top. It’s located above the nav bar. Do You consider to add similiar function in near future? Greetings Andrzej ;)

Hey,

As of now Salient has a secondary header option which will be displayed in the same location – but I’ve noted the idea to have centered text in it :)

Cheers

I could use a bit of guidance… (not really tech support). I am a fan of the tight, controlled flow of the boxed layout format. However, I am not a fan of all the white space it creates on larger monitors.

I also like the ‘container’ layout option as it somewhat mimics the boxed layout, but with the nice responsiveness on mobile. My question is… just how wide does a container layout expand on wider monitors? Does it ‘blow up’ and give you the weird gaps between photos, text blocks, etc… or does it retain most of its ‘boxes’ layout-type constraints?

Hey arteest,

In the custom css box in the Salient options panel you can adjust the boxed width by entering this:

@media only screen and (min-width: 1000px) {
#boxed, #boxed #header-outer, #boxed #header-secondary-outer, #boxed #page-header-bg[data-parallax="1"], #boxed #featured, body[data-footer-reveal="1"] #boxed #footer-outer, .ascend #boxed #search-outer {
    max-width: 1700px!important;
}
}

Cheers

Hey Nicko_217, thanks for the request

look forward to)

Would it be possible for the field to fill the search do not know full screen?

I would just like to see the field next to the icon.

Thx

Hey, you can change to it in the Salient options panel > general settings tab at the top :)

THX!

You’re welcome :)

Gallery Issue:

For the proportion/dimensions of the Image Gallery Element, I would like for it to be set to the same as the images uploaded. That is, when I upload 6 images and all of them are 1600×900, I want the gallery to maintain that ratio (16:9).

However, when I put ‘1600×900’ in the box, the gallery element goes for the 900px height but crops out the width of the image. I would like for the column and image ratio to constrain the gallery images the same way that the regular Image Element does.

Thanks!

That wouldn’t be possible as of now without some modding – i’ve noted your +1 for the idea on the wishlist though :)

Great. Thanks for your hard work. :)

Hi ThemeNectar,

The fonts in Salient are looking very pixelated on iOS / Safari Mobile. Is there a workaround for this? I’ve tried several different methods, and none of them seem to be working.

Hey ThemeNectar,

The URL is https://gamecloud.gohatchtag.com/ and I’m referring specifically to the portfolio section that’s about 1/3 of the way down the Homepage (and also on the “Work” internal page). We’ve noticed that on desktop, and even on Android mobile, the text overlay for those portfolio boxes looks nice and smooth, but the text looks very pixelated and jagged on iOS / Safari Mobile. We’ve been getting a lot of comments about it from people on iOS, so I really hope there’s a way to fix that. Thanks!

Any luck on this one?

Hey,

Try adding this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:

html.cssreflections .portfolio-items .parallaxImg-wrap, html.cssreflections .portfolio-items .parallaxImg-container, .portfolio-items .parallaxImg-container .parallaxImg-rendered-layer, body .portfolio-items[data-ps="6"] .work-item .work-meta .inner {
  transform: none!important;
}

Cheers

Hi, I’m struggling with the featured image size on single blog pages. No matter what dimensions i upload the page makes it enlarged and as a result pix-elated. I use a masonary blog. Then i found that when i uploaded a large 1535×465 image it shrinks it too look good on the page. I’ve searched google and found comments from years ago but not managed to fix my problem. Any suggestions? Thanks very much. Paul

SO i’ve done a work around. I’ve disabled the featured image on single blog posts from the option panel for blogs and then i just use page builder to add the image, can also add a caption this way also. Another question though..Should my theme be selected as child theme, or salient ?

Hey pdonnelly84,

Glad you’ve figured out for first item :)

Are you trying to add the caption on top of the image, under the image or shown in a lightbox link?

You should only use the child theme if you’re making mods to the theme files or need to use large amounts of custom css

Cheers

Reporting bug:

Element – Page Submenu In the latest update, you guys fixed the bug where the submenu would anchor incorrectly when using the Passepartout function. Now it correctly anchors vertically, but it messes up horizontally. That is, it anchors to the left of the screen ignoring the Passepartout and then leaves a gap on the right side of the screen.

View on this page to see what I mean: https://thesesignatures.com/work/decoster/

Would be great if this is fixed asap as it’s a recurring problem that’s vexing me. :)

Hey, thanks for letting me know :)

Awesome! Any idea on when the update to fix this bug will be released?

In a few days :)

Any release date for the next update? I very much look forward to the “related posts” feature :-)

Hey williambesson :)

There’s no exact ETA I can give now, but there’s a minor bug fix related update coming in a few days. I’ll post in this area when the beta is ready for the feature based update which will contain the related posts feature

Cheers!

This is a great theme! We use it over at https://www.sabalie.com for our Cell Food the Salient Studio is amazing! It has so many pre-designed templates!

Hey Sabalie, thanks for sharing your site – looking great!

Really glad you’re enjoying the theme :)

Cheers!

I’m having trouble with a milestone. I am using the option to have rows into fullscreen areas and when I scroll into the row with the milestone it animates fine and counts to my million number, but if I scroll away and scroll back it only counts to 3 very slowly and stops. I have to hard reload to get it to count properly again, and even then it will only count once.

Hey, I was able to find it and have responded

It works! You rock! Thanks for your fast help on this and for juggling support to here when Ticksy was being fussy.

You’re very welcome! :)
