My blog posts are not displaying within chrome and firefox using this theme…is this due to an update of some sort with the current theme? Here is a link to one of my blog posts http://thefictionstoryroom.com/how-to-get-ideas

That sounds like you may be running out of PHP memory, can you please check your error log to confirm this?

Hey ThemeNectar I did as you asked and since I have GoDaddy I contacted them for support and once I generated the log error they mentioned it was due to a file they placed on all their shared hosting websites. They disabled the file and everything works fine now so it wasn’t the woocomerce plugin or the theme causing the issue!

Thanks!

Hey, really glad to hear!

Hi, I’ve two questions, hopefully you can help me with them.

1) I got the following css from you a few days ago.

@media only screen and (min-width: 1000px) { body .masonry-blog-item, body .post-area.masonry.span_9 .masonry-blog-item { width: 49%; } }

When the width value is set to 49%, on the home page (https://energy-democracy.org/) as well as the 2 below-mentioned pages, all the post listings are displayed in one column, flushed to the left. I had to set the width to 48% in order to have the post listings displayed in two columns. Despite having the width set to 48%, the post listings on the pages https://energy-democracy.org/author/holger-schneidewindt/ and https://energy-democracy.org/author/holger-schneidewindt/still displays it in one column. I want them to be displayed in two column and also having the same width, for all the pages. Is it possible?

2) I got the following css from you previously too. I wanted to maximise the viewing space on mobile devices. But it doesn’t seem to work after I’ve updated the theme and changed a new display setting for the post listings. Are you able to advise where went wrong?

@media only screen and (max-width: 690px) { body .container, div.slider-nav, .post-area.standard-minimal.full-width-content article.post .inner-wrap { max-width: 340px!important; } }

Please ignore the questions above, I reposted them because it did not show up when I continued with the question thread which was posted earlier. Thanks!

Hey PIRR, no worries :)

Cheers

Please can you tell me how to remove the date from the single blog post and page? thanks

Hey seochia,

Could you kindly share your URL in regards so I can see your settings to assist?

Cheers

May I say, this theme is the best thing I ever got in my life. Thank you guys, keep it up!

Thanks so much mediaroot! Always awesome to hear stuff like that :)

Cheers

Is there a way to add payment icons to the footer? Like this in the lower footer: http://i66.tinypic.com/2ppa52b.jpg

Hey dzineee,

It would need to be added through an image widget

Cheers

hello, I have a quick question before I might buy: is it possible to make a very short fixed footer with one of your one page layouts? I just need to have a specific information always visible… thank you for your answers in advance

Hey,

It would require custom css, but the snippet is simple enough that I could provide it :)

Cheers

Hi,

I just recently updated the Salient Theme Version from Version 8.1.0 to Version 8.5.0 and now can’t get into the Salient Theme Options panel. I just get a 404 Not Found error. Can someone help me out with this?

Thanks.

Hey daisymunoz! Please refer to the email conversation in regards :)

Cheers

for the single image element in salient visual composer is there no way to select the image size? seems like you can only include the originally uploaded version

Hey steveok, the image element is responsive and will grow/shrink to fill the column it’s contained in. It also uses a srcset with the small/medium/large image sizes and will only load the image size that’s needed for the given screen.

Cheers

Doesnt really work as an optimum solution though, if the image is full width its fine but what if you want to use a smaller version say 200px in width but still want to have larger images available for higher retina devices?

Also if you have to upload the exact max size you want for desktop the current way you have to manually upload all images with the exact sizing instead of just selecting a media size and have it automatically create them for all plus the added benefit of having larger images available in the srcset.

Just so you know the standard visual composer image element does it the way im describing as well.

also for future updates can you make a push for optimization with the google mobile speed test tool: https://testmysite.withgoogle.com/

im currently looking into ways to make salient more optimized which is why i’m mentioning this along with the image issue

your featured test performance isnt as great with this test (not so good for mobile users!): https://www.dropbox.com/s/cyu5wen70wrstuu/salient-google-test.PNG?dl=0

Hi, quick one and awesome theme. I’ve got a tough one for you so hopefully you can help? I’ve tried to add products to woocommerce but I’ve got some rather impressive videos that I want to display above the woocommerce featured image and information. Is this possible?

My second option (because our products are not sold direct) was to create the product pages using posts rather than woo but I can’t seem to get rid of the usual top of the page title. Managed to get rid of the rest of the information such as author, date etc with Css but I really need to have the product videos at the top of the page to really make an impact while being able to categorize them and organise if you get me for other page links? Heeeeeeelp

Thanks in advance!

Hey! Add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:


.single .heading-title { display: none; } 
html body.single-post[data-bg-header="true"].ascend .container-wrap { padding-top: 0px!important; }

Wow thank you, that worked perfect! Awesome support!!

You’re very welcome :)

after the update the recent blog modules now have excerpts that are not contained with in any HTML element, therefore it cannot be targeted with CSS to change color or style it in any way. Is this supposed to be like this ?

Hey,

What recent post style are you referring to? There’s many of them and most should have a wrapping div to target it if desired

Cheers

Hi,

The transitions from panel to panel are acting weird in the homepage. I’m not sure what happened. Thanks!

Hey withkanddoubles, have you updated or installed any new plugins recently? I see you’re not currently on the latest release – have you tried updating Salient yet to see if that fixes it for you?

Cheers

Hi,

I found the source of the problem, a plug in! Nonetheless, I would like to update to the latest version of the theme. I followed your instructions: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/updating-salient/ but when I click on update, nothing happens. When I right click on the link, and open in a new tab, it says the theme is up to date (which is not.) Any suggestions? I would like to stay away from deleting the theme and uploading it again when I’ve done some customization in Salient’s CSS/Script Related sections and other stuff inside those Option Panels that I might not remember this second.

Thank you for everything!

Hi! I have a pre-purchase question. Can I add a top bar which includes a logo, search bar, log in button and a Hamburger NAV Manu? I want to have a regular NAV placed in the regular menu space but its important that I can also add a secondary Hamburger Menu at the top as well. Please let me know, thanks so much!

Hey mamsan00! Yes, you can assign a regular menu and also activate the off canvas navigation area for another one or just to use it as a widget area

Cheers

My website uses the Salient theme and ever since I updated Salient​ to version 8.5.0 from 8.0.1 I’ve been experiencing issues with editing any of my pages. Specifically, when I try to edit any of my pages on Visual Composer.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

Hey martinoriol, please reach out in regards via the contact form on my author page with your admin credentials so I can take a look at what’s going on closer https://themenectar.ticksy.com

Cheers

Hey rooster47,

I have located your email and will be in touch shortly. Thanks for your patience :)

Cheers

Hello! I was wondering why, with the most recent update, I now have a gap of about 16 pixels on the right-hand side of the web site.

www.artblend.com

Any suggestions? Thank you!

PS: It seems that, when I deactivated the styled scrollbar, the space went away.

Hey artblend, thanks for letting me know! I’ll take a look into it :)

Hey alisonleon, I don’t think your comment made it in correctly – could you kindly try retyping it?

Cheers :)

HI TN,

When I adjust the color scheme I expect the loading icon to also change accordingly. The blue rotating icon acts as the preloading icon right now. It does not match my look and feel however. How can I change this?

Is it an idea to add functionality to the Salient settings page, so that one can upload it’s own loading icon?

Cheers, Marc

Sorry, I must have been blind. It’s already in the Salient options under ‘Page Transitions’ !!!

Hey, glad to hear you’ve found what you needed! :)

Hi,

I’m trying to make the button on hero section of this page rounded with shadow.

I have selected the button style in the salient options panel but it doesn’t change.

Can you help?

Thanks

Hey,

If you’re referring to the Call To Action element, you need to change the style within the element itself

Cheers

Hi, I’m talking about buttons, not call to action.

In the theme options, I’ve set the button styling to ‘rounded with shadow’.

Yet when I add a button to the page via button element or shortcode in the page builder its show as a square button with no shadow.

So how do I fix it?

Thanks

Please share your URL in regards so I can see your button settings – if you’re using the 3D flip button, that doesn’t support rounded edges

hey guys,

Is there a way to move the content in these fancy boxes more towards the bottom?

https://blufusion.net/

Thanks

Also, how do I remove the overlay?

Thanks

Hey 0754ben84, change the min height set each of them to something shorter like 400 or 500 and then add this into the custom css box:

body .nectar-fancy-box[data-style="parallax_hover"] .inner {
    padding: 45% 0px 10% 0;
}
.nectar-fancy-box[data-style="parallax_hover"] .bg-img:after {
 display: none!important;
 }

Cheers

How do i put the comment form before the actual comments, in regular posts? I´m using material skin with the latest version 8.5. My site is http://www.cirurgiaplasticanet.com . Thanks , Valter

Hey valterchaves,

This would require a modification to comments.php file in regards

Cheers
