Hey Nectar,

On this site that we are developing, we tried importing your awesome new blog ultimate but for some reason the blogs aren’t showing up on the home page here

http://www.jrefreakbitches.com

We kept the two blog elements for standard masonry blog just like the ultimate demo but its not showing up. Is it just the quantity of blogs or something else?

That’s so sick!

Unfortunately we don’t have any affiliate program as of now – but if we do create one in the future there will be info about it in the docs section at http://themenectar.com/docs/salient

Cheers

Honestly Ill probably do some that point to you regardless since I obviously have been using it for 3 years and love it. Awesome man please keep me in mind to be one of the first if you do. I’ll do my best to earn the spot

Really cool to hear dude, definitely will do! :)

Hi fellows! Is it possible to have off canvas menù already opened on first homepage load?

Hey guasconi,

Unfortunately this wouldn’t be possible without a custom js mod at the moment

Cheers

thanks a lot anyway! :)

You’re welcome :)

Hi ThemeNectar,

Can you please visit: http://www.joelharper.net/

Throughout the site I have a similar setup with four columns in one row. As you can see on smaller screens the columns do not appear to be the same height.

Is it possible for the columns to remain the same height no matter what screen size the site is viewed on?

I currently have “Equal height” enable for the row but as I said the height of the columns do not stay the same height.

Please help. Many thanks.

Best, Alan

Hey Alan,

The columns themselves are remaining the same height, but you’re setting the BG color on an inner row. Instead, change the BG color to be on the parent column in order to get the effect you’re trying to achieve

Cheers

Hi, there seems to be an inherent white flash between the following transition… .flex-gallery .slides > li. Any way to remove this?

Hey kford,

That’s because the opacity of the current slide and next/prev slide are both changing and in the middle of that, the BG will show partially through. If you want to remove the transition, add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:

.flex-gallery .slides >li {
    transition: none!important;
}

Cheers

Hi,

I have an error that’s appeared and I can’t figure out why. The default font colour option in the Salient options has stopped working on my site (I’ve set it to bright yellow #eeee22 just to make it obvious) and nearly all font colours are being overridden with #444

I’ve removed all custom CSS and it’s still happening. Can you see why?

Thanks.

Hey Millionsknives,

Can you either open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials or reach out with the same via the contact form on my author page so I can see what’s going on closer?

Cheers

Hi again!

Is it possible to add this theme to wordpress.com (business plan, that you can add themes and plugins)

Thanks

Hey,

If it allows for uploading custom themes – you could quickly verify that they’ll allow themes from ThemeForest, but it appears that they should :)

Cheers

​Hi,

I need to have a different logo in English and German with WPML – Different ​Domain Per Language ON.

Thank You

Thank You, for your kind reply ^_~‘

Thank You, But if I put this code, the logo disappear in all languages.

This code are correct? I have 3 languages PT (default), EN and DE. <a id="logo" href="<?php echo home_url(); ?>" echo="">> <?php // Website heading/logo and description text. if(ICL_LANGUAGE_CODE=='en'){ $site_url = "SITE_URL"; $site_description = "SITE_DESCRIPTION"; $site_title = "SITE_TITLE"; $logo = "wp-content/uploads/2017/12/logo-EN.svg"; } elseif(ICL_LANGUAGE_CODE=='de'){ $site_url = "SITE_URL"; $site_description = "SITE_DESCRIPTION"; $site_title = "SITE_TITLE"; $logo = "wp-content/uploads/2017/12/logo-DE.svg"; } echo '</a><a href="' . $site_url . '" title="' . $site_description . '"><img src="' . $logo . '" alt="' . $site_title . '" /></a>' . "\n"; ?>

I’m considering switching to this theme from Enfold – but I have an important question: I have about 200 “Portfolio Items” in Enfold. If I install Salient, will those “Portfolio Items” become “Portfolio” posts in Salient? I realize that I would probably have to make edits to each one individually to conform to Salient’s set up, but I’m hoping that it would at least import things like: Featured image, title, description, excerpt, etc. Looking forward to your response

Hey flylanddesigns,

As long as their portfolio post type is also named “portfolio” your items will display within the post type. We still make use of the featured image, title but the actual page builder content is kept within a custom post field – you’d probably need to run a search/replace query to switch your current portfolio post content data to the Salient field

Cheers

Thank you, is there a dummy website setup that I can login to test the backend of your theme in Wordpress? I’ve seen others do this. I really like the look of your theme but I need to make sure it’s easy for me to use. Do you have anything like that? Or is there a free trial of it anywhere?

Unfortunately there’s no free trial as of now

Hi,

When saving any changes in Salient Visual Composer the browser jumps to the bottom of the post causing you to have to scroll back up after every change.

WP: 4.9.1 Salient VC: 5.2.1 Salient: 8.5.3

I have seen this post: https://themenectar.ticksy.com/ticket/1373179/

But the Salient VC version with the 8.5.3 version of the theme is the same than before, so the problem still there. And i have no update link for VC in plugins page

Thanks!

Ups! Im sorry, its working fine, but the version added in the text file in SVC is not correct :)

Hey, glad you sorted it :)

Hey! I have now updated to 8.5 and then the Auto Loader stopped working on the front page. see crafty.se. WHAT SHOULD I DO!?

Hey, I can currently see more posts loading in when scrolling down on the beta URL. Could you please let me know what browser you’re seeing this occur on?

Hi! Have you found what the problems is? Another thing, the date in the blog feed has disappeared? How do I add it again?

Hi is it possible to get a 100% full height slider in homepage with Revolution Slider or is this only possible with the Nectar Slider? Thanks.

Hey,

Is there option not working for you for fullscreen? If so, could you allow me to see the URL where this is occurring?

Cheers

Hello, is it possible to reduce the font of the Breadcumb section?

In this moment the font dimension is like the body.

Hey innobrain,

Could you kindly share your URL or let me know if you’re referring to Breadcrumbs in WooCommerce or in general pages when using Yoast?

Cheers

Hello,

I put a big logo (637 × 255) inside the header and put Header Logo Shrink Number to 50. The logo resizes but the height of the header stays the same when scrolling down. Is the logo to big, what am I doing wrong?

Hey Sieber-nl,

Please share your actual URL so I can see what’s causing that for your setup

Cheers

Presale Question:

You write that you serve images depending on Devices (Screen Sizes). But if I look at GTMetrix https://gtmetrix.com/reports/themenectar.com/cEOv9vRj it is exactly the Part “Serve scaled images” which has zero Points…

Looking forward to your Answer.

Thanks and btw – awesome Theme! Mikkel

Hey Mikkel!

Thanks for letting me know, I forgot to specify a max image size for that post style on the demo – try testing again with URL to clear the cache on your end: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-blog-ultimate/?w3tc_note=flush_all

Hi!! 1. From “Blog-Ultimate” demo, on the first page, in each post box featured image does not cover all the area, there is still white area around images. If I want my featured image to cover all area of the post box like this “http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-ascend/blog-masonry-no-sidebar/” what should I do?

2. Basically, I want to create a masonry blog. According to the function of “sort portfolio” on “http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-ascend/portfolio-fullwidth-default/” that it will be automatically organised when you click on each one Can I apply this function to my mansory blog? How?

Best regards

Hey Dude24!

1. You would need to change the masonry style to “Classic”

2. Unfortunately there’s no isotope filtering options available for the blog at this time, but i’ve noted your +1 for the idea :)

Cheers

Custom Menu Widget: I am using the Custom Menu widget to display a menu on a sidebar. How can I hide submenu items until the parent is clicked?

Hey exclusive_concepts,

That would require custom modding or a plugin as of now as there’s no default functionality for that in WordPress and that’s a core widget not exclusive to Salient.

Cheers

Hi, Blog posts not pulling feature image when posting to Facebook, its showing a picture of an illustrated bird??? Yes, have tried Facebook OG plugin but still not working? Can you please provide fix. Thanks…

hello?

Hey lumberjack, i’m seeing that the og property set is for the demo image used in the video post format.

content="http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/bird1.jpg"
If you’ve edited one of the imported demo posts, please verify that when you change the post format to video that there’s no such image added in the preview image field. If that’s not the case for you, please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can examine the backend closer https://themenectar.ticksy.com

Cheers

YouTube allows you to remove suggested videos at the end of your videos. They give you a code to embed on your website. When I try to put this code in the Embed YouTube/Vimeo Video Player in Salient, it rejects it. Is there another way for me to embed a YouTube video on the site? My second question is if there is a way for me to upload videos onto my site directly from my computer?

Hey 19theagency, have you tried to simply add that embed code directly into a text block element (in the text tab)?

Also if you’d like to use a self hosted video in a regular player format, you can use the add media button when editing a text block as well

Cheers

Hi Phil,

Iconsmind makes a weight of 908k per page. 1 icon or several icons, I get the same weight on the page. How to optimize this? Thanks

Hey youyou78, that would require editing the actual svg file on https://icomoon.io/ to remove the unneeded icons

Cheers

Hey Phil, Thanks I will do like this ;)

You’re welcome :)

Hi,

I’m working on a one page website with anchor links. On mobile view when I click on a link in the menu the menu remains open. Is it possible to collapse the navigation menu after clicking on a link?

Thanks

Hey provloeren,

Are you using the latest version of Salient (8.5.3)? If so, please share your URL so I can take a look why that’s occurring for you

Cheers
