The support on this theme is TERRIBLE. The custom Visual Composer has been broken on my site for a month and they haven’t given me an update in 2 weeks. I see other people in the comments having the same issues.
STAY AWAY!
Hey devjay,
I found the ticket you were referring to only through the refund request you made, but had not seen it earlier. It appears this is the first time you’ve posted a comment here however if you had requested a status update on here for your ticket, or posted to express concern your ticket was missed I would have looked into it immediately. Judging from what you described in the ticket it sounds like it was an issue due to your server being upgraded to use PHP7 before Salient had released the PHP7 compatibility update. I have been providing that to the small number of people who need it and you’re still welcome to have access to it (prior to it being released in a few days) – but, I also already approved your refund yesterday so I imagine you’re not using the theme anymore. If you need it, send an email in regards using the contact form on my author page

Wordpress hangs after enabling the theme – any ideas?
Hey davidemanske, since there’s no known issue like that I would need to see your setup to give assistance. Do you have a ticket open and have you checked the error logs of your server for more information yet?
Cheers
We have import and edit one demo, but need inner pages of another demo. For example, we import the restaurant demo but for the inner pages we want the corporate demo (about us, news ) etc etc.. how can i do that in a faster way..??
Hey chandell, the only to do that would be to import both demos. If you want your install to end up with the theme options (styling) of the restaurant demo, you’d import that second so it’ll be the set of options that remains active after both sets of data are in
Cheers
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,
You can’t turn off the sticky header only on one page without custom modding. But if you want to disable it on all pages, In the Salient options panel > header navigation tab there’s an option for Header Remove Desktop Stickiness”
Cheers
How can I remove the animation on Food Menu? Right now it starts to appear after you scroll down.
Thank you!
Hey getonnet 
Add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:
body .nectar_food_menu_item .item_description, body .nectar_food_menu_item .inner {
transform: translateY(0);
opacity: 1;
}
Cheers!
Hi, Your theme says it uses a highly tailored version of Visual Composer. Can this be extended by our own developers like the standard Visual Composer?
Hey! You can still use VC plugins and/or extend VC using regular vc actions/filters – however note that Salient disables the front end page builder in favor of an enhanced backend version. You can learn more about the Salient version of VC here:

Good day,
I have purchased your theme some time ago and its excellent!!
I have one small question only about the Tabs element on the Salient Visual Composer. How can i replace the text title with an image? Any CSS advice?
Thank you very much.
Hey andrikos4 
It would require custom css as of now – If you can share your URL in regards where the tabbed element is that you would like to add images to, I’d be glad to provide an example snippet
Cheers
Hi,
Thank you very much for your quick reply.
URL: http://gandirect.dns-systems.net/insurance-claims/
We need to change the text titles of the tabs to an image and keep the tab functionality.
Awaiting your news.
Thank you.
Hey,
Since you have multiple tab setups on your page you would need to add classes to your rows to target them individually. Here’s a snippet that would target all (change the nth-child number to target different tabs)
.tabbed[data-style="minimal"] >ul li:nth-child(1) a {
background-image: url(img.jpg);
text-indent: -9999px;
}
and if you added a specific class onto the rows such as “first-tab-section”, “second-tab-section” etc. the snippets would look like:
.first-tab-section .tabbed[data-style="minimal"] >ul li:nth-child(1) a {
background-image: url(img.jpg);
text-indent: -9999px;
}
.second-tab-section .tabbed[data-style="minimal"] >ul li:nth-child(1) a {
background-image: url(img.jpg);
text-indent: -9999px;
}
Cheers
Hi,
It works perfectly!!!
Thank you very much for your support.
Cheers.
You’re very welcome 
Do you have information for the translation problem on woocommerce shopping cart page? I sent you the admin credentials in an email
Hey Pixsite, yes – I just recently responded in regards with the fix 
Cheers
Thank you, perfect, but it remains an untranslated entry. I sent you an e-mail
Hey, that line of text was actually removed in the latest WooCommerce update which is why the .po is not translating it anymore – Salient will be removing it as well in the next update, for now you can just delete it from the salient/woocommerce/cart/cart-totals.php file
Does anyone know why some elements won’t show up in back end editor? I loaded up a testimonial slider and a few others and nothing displays. See screen here: https://ibb.co/df6L0k
- Latest version of theme and plugins - Deactivate visual composer and reactivated, no change
Hey DanDiGangi, that looks like an issue related to your server switching the PHP version to 7 – the Salient compatibility release for that is due out very shortly, but if you’d like a pre release fix just reach out via the contact form on my author page and I can provide it immediately

Cheers!
Thank you! Just sent a message.
Thanks 
I have a 6 column row with buttons on the bottom of each column and text above those buttons. The text varies in length and so the buttons are stepped instead of aligned with each other. How do I get those buttons aligned?
See this page: graphicworksatlanta.com/tfumc
Hey Even_Stevens, you’d need to set a minimum height on your paragraph tags to accomplish that. Add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:
.home .vc_col-sm-2 p {
min-height: 100px;
}
Awesome! Thanks.
You’re welcome 
Is there any way to get a previous version of the Salient theme? It would be great if I could have version 7.0.8.

Hey guys I’m looking at the amazing Blog Masonry Fullwidth on the demo page, and I can’t find that layout in the demos we receive in the admin, could you direct me to what demo is showing that blog setup. Thank you.
Hey ivory2345! A few of the demos use a full width masonry display but with different styles – could you let me know which demo you’re referring to so I can point you in the right direction? 
here is the link http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-agency/blog-masonry-fullwidth/
Hey! in the Salient options panel > blog tab you just need to set your blog type to “Masonry blog fullwidth” and your “masonry style” option to “Meta Overlaid”
1. Is it possible for the ‘off-canvas’ menu background color to change when hovered over the menu text (see here for example http://www.fitch.com/navigation)
2. On the mosiac grid, is it possible for the small images to fade in and out to other images? http://metallicelephant2.cloudaccess.host/
3. Is it possible for each line of text on the landing page animation (like your agency theme -‘Not Just An Average Wordpress Theme’) to be a differnt colour?
4. Is it possible to add a button to the landing page agency theme text animation too?
Hey alisonleon,
1/2. These items would require custom development as of now
3. With custom css, if you’re using that option please share the URL in regards so I can provide an example
4. The page header text input could only accept simple HTML as of now, so it’s possible but you’d need to use single quotes for the anchor href attributes
Cheers
Hi ,
Pint 1 and 2) is it possible for you to do this and charge me for your time? Or can you advise a good code that can do it for me?
Point 3) it’s currently a test theme but here is the URLhttp://pbm.wpdevcloud.com/home-28th-v2/
Point 4) can you explain further I’m not entirely sure what you mean?
Hey,
1/2. I don’t personally offer customization services but would suggest you check out Envato Studio in regards
3. Add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:
.overlaid-content[data-text-effect="rotate_in"] .top-heading >
.wraped:nth-of-type(1) span{
color: #000!important;
}
.overlaid-content[data-text-effect="rotate_in"] .top-heading >
.wraped:nth-of-type(2) span {
color: red!important;
}
4. You would need to enter the anchor into the header field like this:
https://pastebin.com/pFfppKUzCheers
Thank you very much.
Point 3) Is it possible to have the color changing text option for one particular page, instead of it on all pages when I choose this option?
Point 3b) Can I change the colour of the arrow too that shows on the animation page header, this seems to have changed to the colour white, but it needs to be purple?
Point 4) Where do I find the setting of how to put ‘anchor into the header’? (have no idea where this is) http://pbm.wpdevcloud.com/home-may-4th-v1/5) Is it possible for the ‘Secondary Header’ to appear once we have entered into the actual page and not show when on the animated header?
6. The ‘secondary header’ has a border (thin line) below it, how can I remove this?
Hey,
3. Yes – you’ll just need to enter the css in the custom css box in the visual composer builder (gear icon on the top right) instead of in the Salient options panel
3b:
html body[data-button-style="default"] .section-down-arrow i.icon-default-style[class^="icon-"] {
color: #000!important;
}
4. The code I supplied above in the pastebin would need to be added directly in the same location where you’re writing the text for the header
5. Unfortunately this would require custom development
6.
body[data-header-color="custom"] #header-secondary-outer { border: none!important; }
Thank you 
2. Roll Box Header – The Arrow on the ‘roll box header’ is quite small, can I make this larger and change the icon?
3. Roll Box Header – Is it possible to add a button above the arrow?
4. Secondary Menu – Can I have more styling options. I need to change the font - - style - size - colour - letter spacing - font family - Linkable text a different color when hovered/not hovered
5. Secondary Menu – Can I make the ‘email’ a link? You did mention putting in a ‘tag’ but I don’t know where, or how to do this?
6. Secondary Menu – Can I out a ‘button’ and text on the right hand side of the menu?
Hey, 1. For this you would need to disable the transparent header for that page – you can do that in the page header settings metabox on a per page bases
2. Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
html body[data-button-style="default"] .section-down-arrow i.icon-default-style[class^="icon-"] {
font-size: 50px!important;
}
3. Not without custom modding as of now
4. You can change all the coloring from the Salient options panel > header navigation when using “custom” for your header color scheme. Changing the font sizing would require custom css
5. In your menu link make the URL lead to
mailto:info@pbmlimited.com
6. This would require custom modding as of now
Cheers
Thank you 
Re points from above:
2) I have added this code (see below) but it still isnt working? html body[data-button-style=”default”] .section-down-arrow i.icon-default-style[class^=”icon-”] { font-size: 50px!important; }
3) Can you advise how this button is programmed in so I can explain to a programmer how to do it?
4 & 6) Styling options for secondary header – Is there a way you can help with this,I don’t really want to pay a programmer to style this? Why have a secondary header if you cant supply any options to style the font, change the size etc?
Hey again alisonleon, I have answered your previously questions in this area – but continuing since you’re still posting multiple comments with many questions nested within them at the same it would be better suited for the support forum. This area is supposed to be reserved for quick/presale questions https://themenectar.ticksy.com/t
Hello, I’m showing portfolio’s posts using masonry style, in desktop look good, but in ipad it doesn’t fit properly (blank spaces in the last portfolios). I try to change the order of the portfolio’s posts, but when I get it to work on ipad, it doesn’t work in desktop. Screenshot: https://snag.gy/gU0r6X.jpg Any idea how to solve this problem?
Hey debelop,
If the item sizes you’ve defined can’t neatly fit without gaps on all column numbers, the only options would be to change the column sizing on one or two projects or change the column number – can you share your actual URL so I can take a closer look at the setup?
Cheers
Sure, is http://formaarch.es/
hi,
It’s possible to put the filter of the portfolio on video lighting-box and use a widget in my footer with the different project attributes that have created ?
Thanks for your helping.
Hey victorbar,
As of now this would require some custom development, but i’ve noted the ideas for the wishlist 
Cheers
Hi, a couple of days ago you have send me the custom css to make the product title smaller on the category page. After updating the theme, woo, wordpress and plugins the title is back to his old size again. Can you help me again? https://www.distrixs.nl/product-categorie/prolights/led-spot/
Further i would like to ask if it is possible to make the add to cart button on the single product page smaller? https://www.distrixs.nl/catalog/prolights/led-projector/prolights-quadro18utri-18x-3w-rgb/
Hey Roschi,
Add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:
.archive.woocommerce ul.products li.product h2, .archive.woocommerce-page ul.products li.product h2 {
font-size: 12px!important;
}
2. You’re trying to make the dark grey “Vraag offerte aan” button button?
Cheers
Hi!
Thanks for the css, works perfect.
2. i would like to have the button smaller. When costumers are logged in on the website they have two buttons: - Bestellen (add to cart) - vraag offerte aan (request a quote) See the following link for print screen: https://www.distrixs.nl/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/Schermafbeelding-2017-05-05-om-09.26.56.png I would like to have the first button with “Bestellen” smaller. I would like to have him the same size as the other beside of it.
Do you understand my needs?
Hey, try this:
.woocommerce-page button[type="submit"].single_add_to_cart_button, .ascend.woocommerce-page .container-wrap button[type="submit"].single_add_to_cart_button, body[data-button-style="rounded"].ascend.woocommerce-page .container-wrap button[type="submit"].single_add_to_cart_button {
padding: 13px 30px!important;
}
Great!! Thanks!
You’re welcome 
Hi! Is it possible to add the particle feature on a full screen row?
Thanks!
Also I’m trying doing it in another page just like in the tutorial but nothing happens when I click on the “add/edit image” button 
Hey Digi_sara!
Unfortunately it wouldn’t be possible to combine it with the page full screen rows at this time. In regards to your button not responding – have you verified that no third party plugins you may have active are causing it?
Cheers
Hi ! Any chance that you could have a translated version of your theme in french ?please ? That would be a huge help ! Best regards

Hey, trying to get a gallery with different size/random layout images like http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-restaurant/#gallery
They’re all displaying as square though once I switched in my own images, using the same settings used in the demo. http://livinggreen.bcmstorage.com/#galleryThanks!
Hey youngCODE!
You need to use the masonry layout option in your gallery – please see the documentation in regards

Why why why is it that every time I update this theme to a new major version I find myself having to overwrite all kinds of code to get my project to “look” the way it was prior to the update? I just don’t get what is going on with your Header calculations and the margins/paddings/spacing/etc. How come the first row below the header has huge padding and negative margins on them with no settings in VC to overwrite them?
Example: https://screencast.com/t/hqCdqVAAt
Why doesn’t the first row below the header “start” at the bottom of the header? Why the negative margins on it? Is there a specific reason for this that I am missing?
Hey viablethought,
Your screencast is showing the demo instead of your URL the entire time – that negative margin calculation has always been that way when using the header resize effect since the initial release years ago. If you don’t want it to appear, just change that effect to the hide header until needed option or disable it all together. Also, please share your URL in regards so I can check on that and the other issues you’re referring to
Cheers
Firstly, to tell someone that you can only have certain functionality if you revert to some other functionality defeats the purpose of having that functionality doesn’t it? So that doesn’t make any sense at all and I am tired of canned responses (I have been doing this way to long). I showed the example of your demo because that is how it works on my site as well, there is no difference. I rewrote all css to correct the problem, overwriting everything that the theme provides which is not ideal. With my new CSS, I can have a sticky header and the first row “start” below the header instead of being positioned halfway through the header section and it works completely fine, which begs the question, why is it like that initially?
Also, there are other issues now with this new update:
1. The customization of Visual Composer has rendered it almost useless. Inner Rows seem to be effected the most when embedded in parent rows: https://screencast.com/t/Y9nGgbOC
2. There seems to be a conflict with the Templatera plugin (visually), templates still work on the front-end, but in the back-end they look terrible: https://screencast.com/t/T06YMA8d – this doesn’t happen on any other theme except Salient
3. “Disable Row” doesn’t work at all. The row still shows on the front end.
Now, I know I sound grumpy and probably a little spoiled because I have found other themes that I use primarily over this one, but I keep coming back to this one to give it a chance and I find myself ultimately frustrated in the long-run because I receive canned responses and excuses as to why things don’t work correctly. I want the “sticky header” functionality and if your theme doesn’t provide that functionality “out-of-the-box” correctly, then you should be more fourth-coming about that fact so people don’t buy the theme thinking they can do something that they really can’t. Just my two cents.
</end-rant>
P.S. – I still like you guys but come on already…
Hey again, to clarify the choice to make the first full width row have a negative margin – there are many different ways to achieve a shrinking header nav, all have pros and cons when examined. To focus in on one alternative (the solution you went with) If there was no negative margin when the header shrank, it would reveal empty space below it and the first row when scrolling down or back up to the top. This blank space would be extra noticeable when scrolling slowly and look wrong if the first row was not the same color as the header.
Another alternative would be to shrink the header px by px to match the scroll position, never leaving any space and shrinking the header perfectly without negative margins – however the animation effect would essentially be lost with even a medium scroll speed since it would occur so quickly.
The next feature related update is adding a new skin (not just demo, but entire skin option in the Salient options panel) which will change the functionality of many things – one of them being how the header resize works to avoid negative margins. I can provide you with an early copy of that version if you’d like 
In regards to your new issues,
1. The issue of the inner row left controls sliding to the right also occurs in the current raw version of VC without Salient active, If it’s occurring for you more often in the Salient version please just kindly open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can log into your setup and see why that would be occurring to assist you
2. I have just confirmed this css conflict and will fix it in the update due out this weekend, thank you for reporting it
3. This is not a known issue and I can not replicate it through templates saved in templatera or regular rows in a page – i’ll need you to open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can take a look https://themenectar.ticksy.com
Please just let me know your ticket ID(s) once you open them
Cheers 
Hi there, just wondering when you’re planning to update Salient’s visual composer ‘Woocommerce Products’ module to work with the new product_visibility taxonomy that was introduced in Woo 3.0? After digging into the code, it still seems to be using the old post meta values instead. Thanks!
Hey,
I’ll update the theme for that in the next update 
Cheers
No worries, any very rough estimates as to when that might be released? Thanks!
In a few days 
Any updates on this?
Hey, this has been implemented in the current beta – if you’d like a copy please reach out via the support forum or directly in an email via the contact form on my author page in regards
