The latest update seems to have disabled post content, unless I’m mistaken?
Hey KingGrizzly!
Since that’s not currently a known problem, could you kindly share a URL where the issue can be seen?
Cheers
Sure, I’m seeing the issue at: https://dev-hope-and-home.pantheonsite.io/why-do-kids-go-into-foster-care/ . I do have a child theme, but get the issue even after deactivating the custom child theme and activating the Salient parent. Perhaps I’m overlooking something like a conflicting plugin. The content appears not to load at all.
If I drop the old includes/post-templates/entry.php file in, the post content shows up. If I use the entry.php file from the new version, the post content disappears. I’m not 100% sure the issues is with the update, or some old customizing I may have done.
Here’s a big clue: The problem occurs when setting the Standard Blog Style to “Featured Left”: Changing it back to classic made post content work again, screenshot: http://take.ms/D4bKV
Hey KingGrizzly, yes that’s a known issue when setting the theme options setting to that specific post style – just using the VC blog element on that style won’t cause the issue though. The current beta fixes this and if you’d like a copy, just shoot me an email in regards via the contact form on my author page 
Thanks. I can wait for the official release.
Nice job with the blog-focused update. I’ve often thought Salient needed more blog options — so thanks!
You’re very welcome 
Cheers
Hi ThemeNectar,
Is there a way to do something similar to the following within salient/visual composer:

Hey!
unfortunately there’s no element that should swap text like that on a hover event at this time

How do I get rid of projects at the bottom of a portfolio link like this?
https://aliandchrishomes.com/portfolio/15363-rue-de-boischatel/Hey, add this into the custom css box:
.single .bottom_controls {
display: none;
}
Hi,
Would you please give me a css to hide the bottom border of the minimalist toggle http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-service/faq/ for tablets and mobiles only.
I want to show the title and the Plus icon only, no line under.
Thanks
Hey toolbox101,
Sure thing 
div[data-style="minimal"] .toggle { border-bottom: 0!important; }
div[data-style="minimal"] .toggle h3 a {
padding: 15px 70px 15px 0px;
}
Cheers
Hi there, I have discovered a problem. When posting a link to a website using the theme from instagram and facebook it its just displaying the site with no css and just the short code is displayed. You can see the problem in this link – https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxvjLS5TbGumUmN6N2syVm5lVVk/view?usp=sharing
Hey gwhite83,
Do you have jetpack active as a plugin? If so, disable the mobile theme option within it to allow Salient to display normally on mobile devices
Cheers
I am absolutely loving the new features that you all just released with the newest update. There are a couple of things that I am hoping you all can help me fix though. I have provided a link to an image that shows the areas that I am talking about.
https://www.anthonyandmarisa.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/Website-Fixes.jpg1.) Is there any way to center the “Title” and “Read Article” button on the new “Slider Mulitple Visible” recent post option?
2.) Is there any way to remove the “Post Categories” that are also being displayed above the post title?
Also if you would like to look at the live website link it is: https://www.anthonyandmarisa.com
Hey Anthony_And_Marisa!
Add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:
.nectar-recent-posts-slider_multiple_visible .recent-post-container.container .strong { display: none!important; }
.nectar-recent-post-slide h3 {
text-align: center;
}
body .nectar-recent-posts-slider_multiple_visible .recent-post-container.container {
max-width: none!important;
left: 0;
padding: 30px;
}
.nectar-recent-posts-slider_multiple_visible .recent-post-container.container .nectar-button {
display: block;
text-align: center;
}
Cheers
Thank you so much! That looks so much better!
You’re welcome 
Hi Guys,
I’ve just upgraded to the latest version of Salient and all my blog sidebars have dropped to below my blog posts.
Please take a look: https://www.petcheckers.co.uk/best-dog-nail-clippers/
How do I fix this?
Thanks
Hey Ben,
Do you have this in your custom css box?
@media only screen and (min-width: 1000px) {
div#sidebar {
width: 28%!important;
}
}
If so, kindly remove it to solve the issue
Cheers
I have done this and the sidebar is back where it should be, But how do I make the sidebar wider and the content section narrower like I had it before?
Thanks
Hey, you could keep the old snippet in as long as you also adjusted the content area:
@media only screen and (min-width: 1000px) {
div#sidebar {
width: 28%!important;
}
.span_9 {
width: 70%!important;
}
}
Aha! That’s perfect.
Thanks 
You’re welcome 
hi how can I show the menu descriptions? I am following instructions from here: http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-themes/how-to-add-menu-descriptions-in-your-wordpress-themes/ and have included code into my functions file, but when it comes to my header file, I see the following code starting at link 284, what exactly do I need to change? because whatever I edit I keep breaking it and then header shows no items? thanks in advance
<?php if($theme_skin != ‘material’) { ?>
-
<?php
if($has_main_menu == ‘true’) {
wp_nav_menu( array(‘walker’ => new Nectar_Arrow_Walker_Nav_Menu, ‘theme_location’ => ‘top_nav’, ‘container’ => ’’, ‘items_wrap’ => ‘%3$s’ ) );
} else {
echo ‘
- No menu assigned ’; } if(!empty($options[‘enable_social_in_header’]) && $options[‘enable_social_in_header’] == ‘1’ && $using_secondary != ‘header_with_secondary’ && $headerFormat != ‘menu-left-aligned’ && $headerFormat != ‘centered-menu’ && $headerFormat != ‘left-header’) { echo ‘
- ’; nectar_header_social_icons(‘main-nav’); echo ‘ ’; } ?>
Hey rwilson86,
Salient already offers the ability to use this when the menu is assigned to the off canvas navigation. So if in the functions.php file you could simply modify the function nectar_description_walker_nav_menu to be used in all menues
Cheers
thanks so the code I can see in functions is:
nectar_walker_nav_menu();
if ( !function_exists( ‘nectar_description_walker_nav_menu’ ) ) { function nectar_description_walker_nav_menu( $item_output, $item, $depth, $args ) { if ( ‘off_canvas_nav’ == $args->theme_location && $item->description ) { $item_output = str_replace( $args->link_after . ’’, $args->link_after . ‘ ’ . $item->description . ‘ ’, $item_output ); } }
return $item_output;
}
add_filter( ‘walker_nav_menu_start_el’, ‘nectar_description_walker_nav_menu’, 10, 4 );
what do I need to edit/change here?
Thanks
its okay, got it thanks. changed ‘off_canvas_nav’ to ‘top_nav’
Glad you got it 
Hi,
I am having an issue with the Salient Visual Composer conflicting with the WP Simple Pay plugin. I disabled all plugins, and when the VC is enabled, the payment form won’t open in a pop-up.
Is there a CSS code I can add to the page to disable the VC on a specific row, or page?
Thanks!
Hey cwayneboss! Could you please share the URL where this occurs so I can take a look to assist?
Cheers
Dear developer, does the template include a revolution slider? What other premium plug-ins includes the whole pattern.
Hey vodovarius, a custom version of VC is the only premium plugin included from TF – Salient also offers extended compatibility with WooCommerce, and various form related plugins though.
Cheers
with nested modules, and I can execute any of the projects that are presented in your demonstration ?
and the question of the license: the license is granted to the primary domain + subdomain of type xxx.domain.com?
Hey,
1. All demos shown are available for import however some stock images will be replaced with placeholders
2. As with any theme on ThemeForest, you can use the theme once per domain – if you have subdomains, they’re covered under the same license
Cheers
Hello there! I was wondering if it is possible to link to the same portfolio item with different portfolio thumbnail images.
Example links: http://polderanimation.com/wordpress/work/ http://polderanimation.com/wordpress/films/Both pages have the portfolio items Blik/Scrambled/Nu Ken Je Het Toch Al But we made them sepparate portfolio items because we want to display them differently on both of the pages. We were wondering if it would be possible to display it differently and link to the same portfolio item without creating an unnecesary new page.
Example urls for blik: http://polderanimation.com/wordpress/portfolio/blik/ http://polderanimation.com/wordpress/portfolio/blikfilm/So we’d like a display of 2 sepparate thumbnail icons linked to 1 portfolio item.
I hope this is possible!
When clicking blikfilm portfolio image you get redirected to blik but I was hoping this was possible without making the blik-film page at all?
Hey robbertjanvanommeren,
You can use the “External Project URL” field inside of any project to alter the link from the project 
Cheers
Hey! I just updated the latest version and encountered some problems. Most things I can solve myself, but need help with one thing. It does not load more blog posts when I get down to the bottom of the page. What has happened? Is this now a setting I need to do to get it? I have been back to the older version now, but would like to update again to the new one. // www.crafty.se
Hey AlexanderMJ, I would need to take a look at the site when this occurs since I haven’t been able to replicate it on my end – if you would like me to, just reach out in regards with your admin credentials through email or ticket 
Hello, kindly advise on how to change off canvas hamburger icon color? it’s currently black and can’t seem to be able to change it to white – is it possible to make it alternate between two colour depending on the row color? for some reasons the “inherit..” feature did not work – ps. i’m using slider revolution as page header. Thank you
Hey miladrafih,
Could you kindly share your URL in regards so I can take a further look to assist?
Cheers
Hey djoosstas,
Could you share the actual product URL so I can see what you’re referring to a little more?
Cheers
Did you manage to see the issue on the gallery?
Hi Guys, Just one last thing before we launch this site. We have rows of images on the homepage. Cascading rows consisting of two columns each. We would like them remain flush beside eachother as opposed to moving like they do on different size screens. Can you guys recommend a method to kee the images from moving so much?
Images attached to illustrate our point.
https://imgur.com/EfP4yPV https://imgur.com/o0WAJRjThanks guys!
Hey jinjodesign!
Is there anyway I could check out the page directly again and bypass the coming soon plugin?
Cheers
I will turn off the Coming Soon Plugin now for a couple of hours, does that give you enough time? J
Hey, in your larger image squares you’ll need to remove the divider that’s inside of them that’s currently giving them the tall px height. Let that column remain empty and it should auto scale to the other columns when a BG image is supplied. The “colorful blocks” template in the Salient studio demonstrates this
Cheers
Hi Guys, Thanks for this response!
We just tried removing the dividers but the entire columns collapse when we do. The images are in place as the background images of the columns, should we change this to maybe single images? ( https://imgur.com/a/Z4Zi5 )
So the Colorful Blocks template is actually perfect, except we wanted to have white spacing around each block so the images have room to breathe. My instinct is telling me that this is what is throwing off our spacing? As the rows are broken into two columns and a further two columns on one of those. (if that makes sense)
Is there a way I can add this without throwing off the spacing on desktop and responsive screens?
Thanks again for your always helpful and spot on advice and suggestions. J
Hopefully this image illustrates what we are trying to achieve. https://imgur.com/a/YxmGn
Hi ThemeNectar, how can I disable the blog header on a single blog page? Thanks.
Hey flashment, add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel:
.single-post #page-header-bg, .single .heading-title {
display: none;
}
Cheers
.single-post #page-header-bg, .single .heading-title { display: none !important; }
With this code, the actual header content is no longer displayed. However, a gray area still exists as a “placeholder”. How can I remove this?
Hey, could you kindly share your URL so I can see what post settings you’re using to provide the correct snippet?
Hi i´m using the ascend skin, with the new 8.5 version and would like to do 3 modifications. 1) What can i do to enlarge the sidebar are, to stay in the same size as seen in the “blog ultimate” demo ( in this demo, the sidebar area is larger).
2) in the ascend skin the author bio in posts is appearing after the sidebar. I would like to change it so it appears immediately after the text of the post, just like in the “blog ultimate” demo.
3) Is there a way to set a custom logo just for mobile devices, different from the desktop logo?
Thanks, valter
I tried the code below that i found here in the comments section, but it broke the theme: the sidebar enlarged but went below the blog posts.
@media (min-width: 690px) { #sidebar.span_3 { width: 34.5%!important; } #post-area.span_9 { width: 63.5%!important; } }
Hey valterchaves,
1/2. Switching to the material skin in the theme options panel > general settings tab will change this for you. Without switching skins it would require some custom modding
3. A new logo image would need to be added into the header.php file and css could then be used to hide/show it on the desired devices
Cheers
Hi ThemeNectar!
Many thanks for another awesome update
Great work!
One thing I ran into is in the Recent Posts element, when using Multiple Large Featured on a mobile device, the dark overlay seems to have a wrong z-index. Only the navigation-dots are working, and I can’t press the Read Article button.
Is this a known issue?
Thanks in advance!
Hey 0L4F, glad you’re enjoying it!
Could you kindly let me know what device you’re seeing this occur on? So far I haven’t be able to replicate it on an iPhone 6s / GS8
Cheers
Hi ThemeNectar!
The overlay seems to be above the title and the ‘Read Article’ button.
I’m seeing this happen on a Sony Z3 in Chrome, on a GS7 in both Chrome and Samsung Internet, and in the Chrome inspector in device mode on my desktop. Look:
On the GS7: https://rocketclowns.com/img/Screenshot_20171030-074851.png
In Chrome Inspector: https://rocketclowns.com/img/ChromeInspect.jpg
Hey, thanks for the further info – could you let me know if adding this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel fixes it for you?
.nectar-recent-posts-single_featured.multiple_featured .nectar-recent-post-slide .row-bg { z-index: 1; }
Hey ThemeNectar,
z-index: 1;
makes both the title and the ‘Read Article’ button disappear, but
z-index: 0;
fixes it for me on all the above devices. Yay! You rock!
Glad to hear! 
Congrats on the update! Quick question which I hope can be answered here (My themenectar support license is finished.) When using Fullscreen Rows I always have problems with the google maps not being full screen. Here is a test example with a fresh new template from the update:
This page from the update: https://goo.gl/GvdA1Y
looks like this when using full screen rows: https://goo.gl/kN74KN
Any idea how to fix this? 
Thanks and again, great work on the update.
PS: Maybe you guys should make a “New” tab in the Salient Studios Templates so you can quickly see which new templates have been added to Salient Studios.
Short extra question. Is the “Hide On Device” setting broken in the “Responsive Options”?
As you can see here (https://goo.gl/NLG2i6) my first row/page should be hidden from desktop to only show on mobile but it still shows a blank page. Shouldn’t the entire page be gone from desktop?
Hey J0ERI 
1. The full screen rows don’t stretch the content inside of the rows to be fullscreen automatically – by default they get centered vertically, but you can select to align the inner content to the top or bottom as well. Having a map element display as fullscreen itself would require custom development at this time
2. That option works by hiding the row with css, the fullscreen rows will still end up creating a section for it though since that’s done with JS, but i’ve noted to fix this shortly
Thanks for the quick reply!
1: All right, so map elements are not gonna work with full screen rows anytime soon? Or does it work when aligning the inner content to the top or bottom?
2: Does that mean you can hide entire rows on mobile or desktop in the next update? If not, is there another way to show mobile devices a specific mobile page only? Is there an easy way to do that?
