Dear Nectar,
Let me just say once again how much I love your theme! You ROCK!
Over the time I have used Salient, I came across a need to register my own Custom Post Type, that I use for some special content on the website.
The thing is – I need this new PostType to be displayed thru your beautifull portfolio layout grid.
I tryed reading the code of Salient in search of a solution, how to allow portfolio to load my CustomPostType, as well as PortfolioPostType, but I just dont seem to get it.. Can you help me out?
ps. I am willing to pay a small fee for this custom assistance if needed.- [ Custom Post Type & Portfolio Layout ] ##
Hey mrlucas87!
The markup of your custom post type would simply need to mimic the markup of the portfolio post type – which you can find in the nectar/tinymce/shortcode-processing.php file.
Unfortunately I am not personally available for customization projects, but someone at Envato Studio would be able to assist 
Cheers
Thanks! I’ll look into it

Hi. How do I control the spacing between lines of text in a Masonry Blog Fullwidth? It seems like it would be in the Salient settings.
Thanks!
Hey atplay2,
Could you please share your URL in regards so I can see your settings to assist
Cheers
Hey guys. i want to add a second logo in the menu, instead of the social icons. How can I do that?
Hey artivistmovement,
it would need to be added into the header.php file in the header-secondary-outer div – this could also be done via a child theme
Cheers
Hi!
I have a problem – I have used many themes but only with this I have this thing – google add extra ”- Sākums” after SERP title. Sākums means Home. Basacly – google add ”- Home” after my search result title. Why is that and how to remove it?
And problem should be in the theme, not in Yoast seo, because I`m using yoast in many websites with the same settings, but only wit this theme I have this problem.

Hey epitets
Salient in the current version uses the default WordPress method for page title support and makes no further modifications to it: https://codex.wordpress.org/Title_Tag
What version of the theme are you on?
Version 8.0.15
It is strange and I don`t know how to fight against it.. I hope this wouldn`t be the reason to change the theme for future projects. Because SEO is very important in my case. I love your theme – it is simple and elegant, it has many great options and it is fast. But this one little thing I don`t know how to change..
Hey again – if you could just open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials I’d be glad to take a look at the setup for you Just let me know the ticket ID here once you’ve done so

Hi there, I have an existing install and was originally using the corporate skin. I recently imported the frostwave skin but it is still showing the corporate skin. How do I change it now that it says it’s imported?
Hey thegoverseas
The pages from the previous demo will still exist, but so will the new ones – you can now just delete the ones you don’t need and change the menu in Appearance > menus to be the frostwave one.
Are you also saying that the theme option settings did not import for you?
Cheers
Yeah it adds the pages but for some reason the header isn’t changing skin
Hey, please share your URl in regards so I can take a look
Cheers
Sorry for the late reply. I somehow managed to get it to work by digging a little deeper.
Hey, glad to her
ThemeNectar,
I must start by saying thank you for all your help, it’s amazing how great the support for this theme is. A++
I have multiple images on my site and I am trying to setup something similar found here: http://www.natureconservancy.ca/en/
If you look on on the images found under the main banner image you will notice a small icon in the bottom right hand corner. When you hover of that icon is displays a caption. Can something like this be done and if so can you shed some light on how to do it?
Many thanks.
Cheers, Alan
Hey Alan!
As of now there’s nothing exactly like that in Salient thought I noted the idea for the wishlist
Cheers
You mentioned there was nothing exactly like that in Salient but is there something similar?
Cheers, Alan
HELP. I removed the heart/like function and related posts from my portfolio page using the codes provided by you guys in the comments. It was working fine. It was removed, no problem. Later, when I went back to my admin page and refreshed, NOTHING shows up. Only this:
remove_action( ‘woocommerce_after_single_product_summary’, ‘woocommerce_output_related_products’, 20 ); Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /home/content/17/10327817/html/wp-content/themes/salient/functions.php:5494) in /home/content/17/10327817/html/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 1195
I can’t access admin to make any changes now. HELP.
Hey 512michelleg, please paste here what code you’ve used and where you entered it
Cheers
Hi!
We are currently testing all our sites for ADA compliance and unfortunately this theme fails on the icons like Facebook etc. not having link text so I am wondering if this could be implemented in a future update?
I have had this issues on a couple other themes so I am reaching out to all of them (1 has fixed the issue so far) to fix the issue so our clients comply with these regulations.
Thanks for your help!
Hey WeAreHi5! I’ve noted it for the next feature based update
Cheers
Hi, Great theme here! How can I add a “top bar” navigation for the site? It should be a thin bar on top of the main nav/theme, but can’t seem to find it. I appreciate your help. Thanks!
Hey apinzon, glad you’re enjoying it
You can enable that in the Salient options panel > header navigation > functionality tab with the “Header Secondary Nav” option
Cheers
Hi. How can i change the size of the down arrow (not nectar) like the one used here: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-corporate/about/
Hey, if you would like that down arrow you need to change your button styling to “rounded” in the Salient options panel > general settings tab and also verify that the “Down Arrow Style” in the Salient options panel > page header is set to “default”
Thanks. I have already set it up, i just need to make it larger in size so that it is more visible. Sorry that i wasn’t clear.
Hey no worries, add this into custom css box in the Salient options panel:
html body[data-button-style="rounded"] .section-down-arrow i {
font-size: 34px;
}
This works for the arrow. What about the circle?
You could remove the previous snippet an use this instead:
body[data-button-style="rounded"] .section-down-arrow {
transform: scale(2);
}
ThemeNectar,
AMAZING THEME!!!! It’s my go to theme now.
Can you please help me out with the following. I’m able to hide the ‘View Larger’ button but not the ‘More Details’ one.
1) Hide both ‘More Details’ and ‘View Larger’ buttons on the Recent Projects carousel.
2) Make the whole thumbnail for recent projects clickable.
3) When Meta from Bottom is active, is there any way to have the Meta display all the time instead just only on a HOVER?
Your help is greatly appreciated.
Best, Alan
Hey Alan!
1/2. Add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:
body .portfolio-items .col .work-item .work-info .vert-center a:nth-child(2) {
display: block!important;
position: absolute!important;
background-color: transparent!important;
top: 0px!important;
left: 0px!important;
margin: 0px;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
opacity: 0!important;
text-indent: -9999px;
}
3.
.portfolio-items .work-item.style-4 .bottom-meta { bottom: 0!important; }
Cheers
Appreciate the quick response. AMAZING!!!!!
Many thanks, both CSS snippets work great!!! With regards to the Meta description what is the best way to change the font style, size and color?
Cheers, Alan
Theme Nectar,
I apologize for all the questions, I’m just trying to get the layout and design to work the way I want. One quick question with regards to the carousel thumbnails see here: http://evermaven.com/naturedestinations/
Is it possible to alter the width and height of the images? I’m trying to make each thumbnail image 291×176 and the full width of the carousel 1068px.
Can this be done? Please help.
Many thanks.
Best, Alan
How do we add an additional class to a button shortcode? We tried this but it didn’t work:
`[button color=”extra-color-1” hover_text_color_override=”#fff” image=”default-arrow” size=”large” url=”#pricing” text=”Sign Up Now” color_override=”” class=”full-btn pricing-btn”]`
Also, how do we add an id to the button?
Hey HonestOffice,
The button element in the Visual Composer page builder offers a custom class input – have you tried using that?
Cheers
Hi, the new Woocommerce 3.0 lightbox is appearing underneath the menu / product info. Please provide CSS to alter the Z-index to make it work. Thanks
Hey superbrecs,
Could you please share your URL so I can take a look at your settings?
Cheers
Sure. Here you go: http://elevation233.com/product/test-product/ I am using the Smart Variations Images Pro plug in which works fine with the wordpress theme, but not on this one. Thanks
We’re trying to emulate the footer from your http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-band/ demo
1. We are seeing this text in the area above the socials: Click here to assign a widget to this area.
2. The copyright is flush to the bottom of the page.
How do we clean this up?
Hey Micatuca,
1. You can either assign a widget to that area in Appearance > widgets or disable that section in the Salient options panel > footer tab with the “Main Footer Area” option
2. Please share your URL so I can take a look since that’s not a known issue
Cheers
Hi – when I try to log into the development WP site, i enter the user name and Password, and it says ‘File not found’. Do you know how I can fix this please? I think its possibly because I wnet inot settings, I deleted the name ‘wordpress’ from the URL. How do I fix this and get back into the site!?
http://headcount.co.nz/wp-login.phpMany thanks! : )
Hey!
This doesn’t have much to do with Salient, but I can provide general advice If you’ve changed your permalink structure to something malformed for your setup you’ll need to manually reset it via the .htaccess file – your hosting company could most likely assist with this
Cheers
Is there a way to adjust the transparency settings on the portfolio thumbnails? I’m using the “Meta On Hover + Entire Thumb Link” setting. Here’s my site http://www.williamrobertlouis.com/. I would like it to be solid ornage on hover…
Hey tmudd89,
Add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:
.portfolio-items .work-item:hover .work-info-bg {
opacity: 1!important;
}
Cheers
Just installed theme…don’t see the drag-n-drop salient visual composer. Only see the classic mode. Is there a setting to turn it on? By the way, it’s a brand new install I did today (WP core is latest, theme is latest etc).
Hey moearora1, it sounds like you didn’t install the Salient Visual Composer plugin http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/installing-plugins/ is that correct?
No, it’s installed and activated…and is enabled for pages for administrator (which I am) but don’t see it as an option for editing the pages with…what gives?
And running PHP 7
By the way, I just opened a ticket and provided login info…
Hey, I just logged into your setup via the provided credentials and am able to edit the page with Visual Composer – have you changed something since posting?
Hi,
I have a question, I have a white logo and colored logo.
How come on this white bg page the colored logo does not show, instead its the white one. http://161.fd5.myftpupload.com/policy/
But on this one, if you scroll down, the colored logo shows on a white bg. http://161.fd5.myftpupload.com/
How can I show the colored logo on the policy page?
Thanks
Hey toolbox101,
When not using a transparent nav, the logo shown is the field titled “Logo Upload” located in the Salient options panel > header navigation > logo & general settings tab. Make sure that one has the colored logo
Cheers
Great thanks, that simple solution fixed the issue One more question, why are the overlay colors getting strange white lines when hovering over them to flip the boxes? You can see this on my link above, under the features section.
Hey, what browser/OS are you seeing that occur on? So far I don’t see any white lines
Hi, I am using the latest Mac OS and latest Chrome and this only happens on Chrome, here is a video for you to see. http://161.fd5.myftpupload.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/screencast-2017-05-23-10-36-31.mp4
Hey, that’s weird i’m using a Macbook pro with Chrome 58.0.3029.110 and don’t see this occurring – what Mac/browser version are you on?
HI, I am using Chrome Version 58.0.3029.110 (64-bit)
And Mid 2010 Mac Pro (the tower)
Processor 2×2.4 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon, 18GB memory and ATI Radeon HD 5770 1024MB Graphics
Hope this helps, Thanks
