Hi ThemeNectar,

I am trying to create a custom footer similar to the image found here: https://my.pcloud.com/publink/show?code=XZR8zvZyLGfmH9R8XREcEmQ2pcDMRed2KrX

The live link is here: http://naturedestinations.ca/wp-ncc/

Currently I have built it with the Visual Composer Page Builder using rows and have added it to every page. I would like to convert it nto a footer widget so when I need to make changes, I can make it in one place and not have to change it on 20 pages.

I also need to be able create two one for English and the other French.

I tried using “WPBakery Visual Composer – Mega Footer” but ofcourse it says I need to have installed and active “WPBakery Visual Composer” which does work for me as I am using the Visual Composer that came with Salient, one of which I prefer.

Any suggestions? Many thanks.

Hope all the above makes sense.

Best, Alan

Hey Alan,

the Salient VC is compatible with templatera https://codecanyon.net/item/templatera-template-manager-for-visual-composer/5195991 which allows you define a single template and have it reused on as many pages as needed. Then when you make changes to the master, all the pages using it will also be updated

Cheers

Hey matey! I noticed when I choose outlined button for a menu item, on hover the whole menu moves from animation i guess. Can this be fixed? Dont want a solid button up there but the movement in the menu is a tad naff :)

Hey! Try to add this into the custom css box:

body #header-outer:not([data-lhe="animated_underline"]) header#top nav ul li[class*="button_bordered"] a:hover {
  margin-left: 14px!important;
  margin-right: 14px!important;
}

Guys,

Every time you blow me away with amazing support and solutions. Can’t thank you enough.

<3 <3 <3 I’ve loved these years together :)

Always here to help :)

Hi! I want to know if exist a custom Css to hide the line between the items in the Toggle Panels, and make it a little bit smaller. Im using minimal and yes, I want to make it shorter in width. Also, I want to make the footer more smaller. Regardless of whether it has widgets or not, the footer remains very wide.

Hey axsusanonimo,

1. Add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel to remove the border:
div[data-style="minimal"] .toggle { border-bottom: 0!important;}
– the width of the toggle will expand to fill the column it’s placed in so if you want the overall width narrower, just change the column to a smaller column in the page bulder

2. Please share your URL in regards so I can take a look at your footer settings

Cheers

How can I change the color of the header navigation links? It seems like changing the Ascent color (the first one) doesn’t have any effect and it sticks with a blueish color.

I’d like links to turn from black to blue on hover on light backgrounds and from white to the same blue on dark background – in the header and also all over the rest of the site.

I searched the comments but the answers so far did not help me

Hey Gymnae,

Please share your URL so I can see your current settings – are you using a custom color scheme in the Salient options panel > header navigation > logo & general styling tab?

Cheers

http://blog.grundstil.de – no, I’m using the dark styling. I deactivated some caches in the meantime, which means changes to accent color are visible more swiftly, but my main challenge of having the colors as mentioned persists

​After installing the latest version of Salient theme and activating WooCommerce I getting this WooCommerce notification at the top.

Your theme (Salient) contains outdated copies of some WooCommerce template files. These files may need updating to ensure they are compatible with the current version of WooCommerce. You can see which files are affected from the system status page. If in doubt, check with the author of the theme.​​

Additionally it says – Please copy and paste this information in your ticket when contacting support. Refer the attached file for information.

Can you tell me if this will cause an issue with WooCommerce and if these files need to be updated? Ow will you be fixing this issue soon?

Hey rahulpatwa, that message just starting appearing a couple days ago when WooCommerce v3.0.9 was released – Salient will release an update shortly to remove the message :)

Hi, thanks for making this great theme. For some reason, the input fields in all my contact forms aren’t visible, is there something I can do to fix this? Like at the bottom of the front page of http://3dstream.net , I have a Contact Form 7 form and a Ninja Forms form which both have the same problem. I would like the input boxes to be shaded gray or something so that the user knows where where to click to type. Thanks.

Hey soooherewego3E_!

That’s how the minimal form styling option looks by default as shown in the theme demos – if you would prefer to use another one you can change this in the Salient options panel > form styling :)

Cheers

Hey guys, it seems like you did a really good job ! I very interested in purchasing the theme for a commercial use. But I need some confirmation before. Can we customize the pages for the customers that have an account ? Can we have create a “default” product and then client customise it ?

Hey AntoineKB,

Salient uses a page builder so after you pass the finished product on to the client they will easily be able to edit/update content – if you’re not familiar with Visual composer or WordPress themes from ThemeForest I suggest you check out the Salient docs themenectar.com/docs/salient and check out some videos to see how it looks on the back https://www.youtube.com/user/ThemeNectar/videos

Cheers :)

Hey Phil,

I’m having some trouble setting up my permalinks for a site and was wondering if you could drop a knowledge bomb or 2 for me?

Basically, all i want to do is have the content Home Page content to populate rather than the blog. I’ve referenced an old video tutorial that show a few buttons in the Manage Locations tab that are no longer available.

How can I have alexarthouse.com load with the Home page contents rather than the blog at default?

Thanks a bunch man!

-CS

Hey CS!

In the WordPress admin panel > Settings > Reading choose the option “A static page (select below)” for the “Front page displays”

Cheers :)

Thank you so much man I really appreciate it!

You’re welcome!

Hello,

Can you please tell me the code to show the hamburguer menu sooner? On iPad (1024×768) the logo is overlaped by menu and i can’t reduce more the spaces between the menu items. Please check: http://ascensia.edu.sg/

Thanks,

Renan

Hey Renan,

no code is needed – there’s an option for this in the Salient options panel > header navigation > general settings

Cheers

Hi there,

On our home page we have a product carousel that works fine on laptop and IPhone (checked multiple browsers) but doesn’t work on Android. The options are add to cart and select options which works outside of the carousel but not from it.

Any ideas?

https://upwarddog.com.au

Cheers.

Hey sacredimagining,

I’ve noted to test this for the upcoming release – try opening the init.js file located in the js folder and deleting this exact segment:

&& !$(target).parent().hasClass('add_to_cart_button')

You can do to a file search for that as there’s only one instance

Cheers

Hi in this demo here http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-startup/ there is a button with “Purchase” text on it, I imported the same demo but there is no button, how can I add it? Thanks

Great! Thanks!

You’re welcome :)

Hi, I have set a “External Project URL” for a portfolio item. I want to have this opened in a Lightbox, how can we do that, so we keep visitors on the site for the preview url

Hey vidal,

Unfortunately that wouldn’t be possible without some custom development at this time, but I’ve noted your +1 for the idea on the wishlist

Cheers

Hi guys,

Is it possible to help me understand how I can place a image gallery using the flickity slider inside an accordian section?

You can see the slider is loaded inside the section, but the images do not show. https://prnt.sc/folb4x

Hey JamesMcCombe,

As of now this would require some modding – however it should work in a tabbed element though if that would suit your needs

Cheers

It seems that the slider loads into the accordion and actually rotate between each item as shown by the number of pagenation dots at the bottom, matching the number of images there, and also moving between dots, but the images themselves do not appear.

I dont think the tab option is suitable as I am wanting to show and hide the slider inside itself.

How could I modify so that the images show?

Hi, how do I change the excerpt on a blog element that is added to a page. I am using one of your pre-made templates and it has a blog element set as Masonry -no side bar and 1 post per page. The excerpt seems to be stuck on lorem ipsum text. I have changed the Text in the post itself, but that doesn’t seem to be changing the excerpt.

You’re welcome :)

Forgot to ask, What is a way to disable comments? I don’t need any commenting options on any posts, or pages, or anywhere.

Hey, this resource will explain all you need to know about how to control WP comments

Is there an easy way to add more accent colors? I’d like to use about 5 of them for different icons.

Hey acafella11,

You can use the gradient slots to display a solid color as long as you set the beginning and end to the same color

Cheers

That was my first thought too, but if I use that on an icon with “border with hover animation” it doesn’t display properly

Hey, could you please share your URL in regards so I can take a look?

Hi there,

I posted this issue a little while back but still haven’t got a solution. Can you please take a look at the following issues:

1. There is still a weird padding issue at the top of the page above any full-width section. I added #header-space {display: none} which seemed to fix it for bigger screens but it still shows on smaller. You can see it here – https://www.boutiquetraveler.com/san-francisco/

2. The full-width images do some weird resizing on page load. The image loads smaller and then resizes after a moment. You can see it on the same page as above.

3. Image galleries and maps also have a weird loading issue. It will first load as a black holder before taking time to load the first image or for the map it just takes a while to load. You can see an example here – https://www.boutiquetraveler.com/san-francisco/private-tours/downtown-embarcadero/

I hope you can help.

Thanks Mike

Hey, if you like access to the beta version which offers a different way of handling the header resize effect – it should solve your issue without any css. Please reach out via the contact form on my author page in regards

Cheers

Sent you a message, thanks

Hi I’ve reached out a couple of times by contacting your author page but no reply. Any idea when the header resize fix will be happening?

One of the most worthless and shittiest themes out there. Totally not user friendly, not clearly explained where to find and do what things. You need to learn it by experimenting and searching. If you want support you are waiting for 2 to 3 days before you receive a reply with which you can’t do anything.

Hey remcopeters,

I checked the support forum and found that you have no open tickets and the last ones you had opened a couple months ago received responses within 24hrs in which the dialogue between you and the support staff seemed polite and ended with resolutions to your questions.

I also see this is the first time you’re commenting on here so I’m confused by your aggression – if you do indeed have an open ticket that is waiting to be answered please just let me know the ID so I can assist you. If for whatever reason you don’t have any open tickets but have decided after using the theme for a while that you dislike it, we offer refunds for cases like this where you can receive the purchase price back. You can request one here at your convenience: https://themeforest.net/refund_requests/new

Cheers & best of luck

Hi, anybody knows if there is a way to include a link in bio fullscreen page? I want to include email, linkedin and a detail page link into description… thanks

Hey lumendesign,

As of now that can’t be accomplished without some file modding but the option is indeed coming in the next release!

Cheers

Thanks. I’m looking forward about that feature. Cheers

You’re welcome :)

Hi there,

Hope you are well.

I’ve got two tickets in your support forum that I admitted two weeks ago. Would you please be so kind a take a look at these so that we can get on with our work? That would be great. I bought extra support time to have these issues solved (both for myself and for others) and so it’s a bit disappointing that there’s such a long waiting time in your support forum.

The tickets are: #1207767 and #1207794 (also referenced in #1207812).

Thanks, Jonas

Hey Jonas,

I just took a look at those IDs to see what was holding the support staff up and responded in regards – a note had been left for me in regards that was missed, thanks for letting me know kindly that you were waiting on a response. Let me know if you need anything else :)

Cheers

Hi I am getting an incompatibility error with Salient Vis composer after trying to update to php version 7.0. Can you please advise? Thanks

Hey Mikeoc, please reach out in regards via the support forum or in an email so I can provide you with the beta which is 7.0 compatible (you can send an email on my author page here if desired: https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar )

Cheers
