Hi there,

I tried to submit a ticket but it looks like my support just expired. Bummer. I was hoping on this one off occasion you might be able to help as it seems I’ve found a bug…

When I try to add recent posts via visual composer to the homepage of my site. For some reason the header image shows on the post itself, but not as a thumbnail, you can see the recent posts section here:

https://stemtoysreview.com/

Could you shed any light on this?

Thanks in advance, Johnny

Hey Johnny,

The recent posts element uses the featured image set for the post, which is separate from the page header image you can define – do you also have featured images set on those posts?

Cheers

Hey there!

I’ve double checked and put a header image in VC as well as a featured image on a few of the posts on my homepage page and it seems to have fixed it.

Thanks for your help :)

Hey, glad to hear :)

Cheers!

Hi, is it possible to duplicate portfolio category and rename it into something else like projects?

Hey dolphinmedia,

The portfolio categories work the same as WP blog categories, are you referring to duplicating a category and the items inside?

Cheers

No, without items inside. I want to have another post type called Projects that will work the same way that Portfolio does

Any thoughts on how I can achieve it?

The Left header top level menu-item is not reachable​​... it just opens the submenu… how can i fix it so that we can click at each top-menu-item?

Hey,

That’s the default functionality of the left aligned menu as shown on the demo – the main link you would like as the parent would have to be placed within the submenu as the first item

Cheers

Hey :) I want to have the text of the Testemonial Slider aligned left, but it doesn´t work. Any chance to do this? Thx in advance

Hey, depending on the testimonial slider style you’re using it may require a css snippet – could you share your URL where the testimonial slider is present?

Cheers!

Hi! Just wanted to follow up again and see if you could help me with this error when trying to instal Rev Slider. Thanks again :)

Unpacking the package…

Installing the plugin…

Destination folder already exists. /home/content/a2pewpnas01_data03/81/3904481/html/wp-content/plugins/revslider/

Plugin install failed.

Hey, please see my response to your previous comment in regards :)

hi guys, great theme. How can i hide the category text & the post created by text? thanks

Hey, sorry about that there’s a minor typo in the above snippet, there needs to be a . before archive as well

.archive.category .row .col.section-title span { display: none!important; }
.archive.category .row .col.section-title h1 { text-align: center; }

cheers mate, you are the best!

Glad I could help :)

Hello, sorry to reopen this issue, but there’s a conflict between with Visual Composer and YoastSEO (when YoastSEO hide meta-box option active, some Salient buttons stop functioning)

Please also include this fix on next update :) (I’ve fixed mine and issue gone completely)

- This is the issue: https://github.com/Yoast/wordpress-seo/issues/6219#issuecomment-265599726 - And this is the fix: https://github.com/Yoast/wordpress-seo/issues/6219#issuecomment-265612524

- File: js_composer_salient/include/classes/vendors/plugins/class-vc-vendor-yoast_seo.php, Line: 66

- Original code:

public function enqueueJs() { wp_enqueue_script( ‘vc_vendor_yoast_js’, vc_asset_url( ‘js/vendors/yoast.js’ ), array( ‘yoast-seo-post-scraper’ ), WPB_VC_VERSION, true ); }

- Fixed code:

public function enqueueJs() { if ( wp_script_is( ‘yoast-seo-post-scraper’ ) ) { wp_enqueue_script( ‘vc_vendor_yoast_js’, vc_asset_url( ‘js/vendors/yoast.js’ ), array( ‘yoast-seo-post-scraper’ ), WPB_VC_VERSION, true ); }; }

thank you :)

Hey ezraimanuel! Thanks for letting me know :)

Hi

I have put a hyperlink in one of the image hotspots here http://jolique.co.uk/#servicesIntro

It is the one near lips.

Appears to work on mobile but link does not work on my desktop.

I have tested on several browsers..same issue.

i am using a 24 inch monitor if that makes a difference.

Can you please advise?

thanks

Yes

Can i please get a response on this issue? Thanks

Please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials and let me know the ticket ID here once you’ve done so: https://themenectar.ticksy.com Cheers

First of all…amazing theme! Love it! I have 1 small question…

I use the single posts for two different things, sorted in categories: RECIPES and BLOG

Unfortunately, if I click on a single post “RECIPE” in the menu the item “BLOG” is highlighted…no matter if the single post is categorized as BLOG or RECIPE. Is there any way that the menu item RECIPE stays highlighted if I check a single post with a specific category? Even if the menu item is a category and set primary…it always highlights the item “BLOG”.

Thank you very much!

Hey MMA_Impact! :)

Could you kindly share the URL in regards so I can take a look to assist?

Cheers!

Yeah sure! Please check www.low-carb-nerd.de As you can see…please go to BLOG and you´ll see at the single post (which is just a dummy) the menu item BLOG is highlighted…of course.

But if you go to REZEPTE and open a single post (which has the category “REZEPTE” as a main cat.) the item that is highlighted is BLOG again…

If you need admin details, just let me know where to send them…

Thank you very much!

Hey again! Unfortunately WP doesn’t add the current menu class to highlight categories that may be in the menus by default – however there is ways you can add this fucntionality with filters: https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/134409/wp-nav-menu-not-highlighting-the-current-category-when-viewing-a-single-post

Hello there , can i know how to create a portfolio page with two layer category ??

Example . currently i have parent category – Car , Van , Bus and Subcategory with State 1, State 2 , State 3 .

Then i create a Car page category . And i wanna display only Cat category on that page with filter State 1 , State 2 , State 3 .

Is it possible ??

Hey mmtnit,

As of now this would require some modding but i’ve noted your +1 for the idea on the wishlist

Cheers

Why is there no obvious option to change the generic body font color.

Why is your generic font color default to something with an alpha value.

.nectar-icon-list-item .content { color: rgba(0,0,0,0.5); }

Why is there no way to coherently set body font across the entire website under the salient settings in the wordpress back end.

Why does a text content color default to this weird alpha value and then the accordion element header font defaults to #888.

Hey again snxodesk,

There is a body font color select, it’s located in the general settings tab of the options panel.

The overall body font color does not use an alpha value, a few specific nectar elements use alpha values so that the element will be more flexible to display on top of any BG color/image. Those elements which use rgba coloring will also change from light to dark based on your text color selection for the row.

Please share your URL in regards where you’re having issues changing any font colors so I can see the setup to assist

Cheers

Scrolling down then back up to the top of the site on certain pages breaks the menu, either the menu is shorter when scrolled back up fully or the content gets pushed down somehow. It’s hard to debug because of the massive amount of divs that this theme generates. Why does the header break when scrolling down then back up and how do i fix it?

Hey snxodesk, please share your URL in regards as there is no such known issue

Cheers

Well, there were some modifications in the CSS. I have reverted to just using the parent theme (8.6) and it totally messes up the site as you can see 1) spacing on home page 2) font colour of ‘services’ has gone unreadable 3) the menu mobile works but look at the display – it’s all wrong (both on emulator/Chrome and a screenshot from the mobile itself).

Please help me fix as the site is now unusable… :(

Thanks, ThemeNectar. It would be terrible to lose all my changes.

Hey pwanwu,

could you kindly share your actual URL so I can take a further look into what’s going on?

Pre-sale question : Is this website made by using your theme http://www.rapbasement.com/

Hey, it appears to be using a heavily modified version of Salient

Cheers

Hi, I love the theme but I’m having trouble installing Rev Slider, jw if this is a known issue or if I’m doing something wrong.

Hey spencercmoret! What is the error that is occurring for you?

Thank you for responding! This is the error I get but I don’t see the plugin anywhere in the UI.

Unpacking the package…

Installing the plugin…

Destination folder already exists.

Plugin install failed.

Hey, Try deleting any version of the plugin that’s in the plugins directory (wp-content/plugins) with FTP and then install again. An incomplete version might be there from your first unsuccessful install

Howdy! A few quick questions…

1. I have disabled comments on my site globally. However, on my blog header it still shows the comment counter box next to the likes. How would I remove the comment counter at the header of the post without removing the sharing or like function? (URL: https://tinyurl.com/kuxay5t)

2. On this same page I cannot seem to get rid of the space at the bottom of the page. Could you please instruct me on why this is happening and how I can remove/negate it? Essentially I don’t want any space between the footer and the last container of the page. I have about 8 clients that I had buy this theme and when I work on their sites this never happens. Could it be that I have had the theme for so long (It is updated)?

3. Lastly, I LOVE the template feature you implemented. It is beyond helpful and has cut my work flow in half. However, again I have tons of clients using salient, and the template works for them. On my personal site the template feature is broken: does not show image preview or categories.

Thanks for being so awesome!

Hey try adding this in :)

body[data-bg-header="true"].single .container-wrap { padding-bottom: 0!important; }

That worked! Many thanks.

​Hello,

I need to add a table to my page. A simple HTML table with the structure <table><tr><td /><td /><td /></tr></table>. Unfortunately even if there is no set width, the table is not responsive. e.g. https://goo.gl/cSvSEZ Is there a way to make it responsive? Although the output in that page is an HTML table, I am actually using a custom template and the code that generates it is PHP, so I can’t recreate it using the Visual Composer.

Hey,

If you’re talking about making it responsive for mobile devices, you would need additional CSS to change the layout of the table to accommodate on smaller screens with media queries since you’re not using Salient table like structures which already do this

Cheers

I’m totally confused?? My logo keeps deleting from the media library and disappearing from my site. It’s happening every day! Anyone got any ideas? www.whichfidgettoy.com

Hey cunners3-16, could you please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so we can take a look at your setup for you? https://themenectar.ticksy.com

Cheers

Hi, I have a very strange but annoying issue which I have narrowed down to it being the salient theme causing the issue. We are an ecommerce store selling tickets. Our ticket pages should look like normal woocommerce style pages, but one of our usual best sellers is completely broken. Please see here – https://discovergrandprix.com/product/abu-dhabi-grand-prix-formula-1-tickets/

I think it’s some sort of weird css issue but I can’t track down what it is. Some help would be greatly appreciated as this wasn’t happening before v3.0.15.

Many thanks, John

Hey John,

It seems the minifcation you have on might be allowing one of the font awesome selectors to wrongly apply to the page – you could counter this and correct the styling by adding this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:

.type-product[class*="fa-"] {
    display: block;
    width: 100%;
    height: auto;
    text-align: initial;
    font-size: inherit;
}

Cheers

I look demo with particle.. I need it. Can the particles be placed custom with Visual Composer?

Hey,

The particles are a theme feature for the page header outside of VC – you can see a tutorial on it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SrIlw4-brCg

Cheers
