How is it possible to import the pricing tables or other elements for demo?

Hey,

You can import all the various sections used in the demos shown via the Salient studio http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/salient-studio/

Cheers :)

I have a pre-sales question. Can the Salient Visual Composer be enabled on the frontend?

Hey danfelbm, not as of now without some custom modding – however this is an item that will get added in the future :)

Cheers

I would like to get rid of the comments altogether. While disabling the comments from the WordPress Discussion tab works, there is extra padding left from the theme. How can I exclude that too and make it non-existent?

Hey,

add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel:


.single-post article.post .content-inner, .single-post .main-content > .row {
    padding-bottom: 0px!important;
    margin-bottom: 0px!important;
}

Cheers

Uploading photos to media library gives HTTP error.

I am currently running Salient 8.5.3 and Salient VC 5.2.4 on WP 4.9.1. I get a HTTP Error when photos are uploaded to the media library. This problem only occurs with the Salient theme. Photos uploaded to the library using a default WP theme does not give an error.

Just sent you the admin credentials via the contact form on the author page.

I installed this plugin and it seems to have fixed the problem. https://github.com/getsource/default-to-gd

Hey jwbirchfield, that’s interesting – thanks for letting me know. I’ll still be investigating it further on my end

Cheers

How can I increase the font of the menu items?, as they look very small

Hey tamim606, you have full control over the typography in Salient via the Salient options panel > typography tab. For this setting see the field “Navigation Font” in that tab

Cheers

There is an excess blank row between the blog’s post header and the body content. How do I get rid of it?

Already tried checking for padding and else, everything is on 0.

There is padding set on the container-wrap div for the fullscreen header style – it can be removed with the following CSS


html body.single-post.material[data-bg-header="true"] .container-wrap {
    padding-top: 0!important;
}

Cheers

It worked. Thank you.

You’re welcome :)

Hi, I am working on setting up one of your demo p[ages, and trying to customize the look a bit. Can you help me remove the space between the elements seen in the screenshot? I can’t figure out why it is showing below the owl carousel.

Margin bottom is set to 0 and the top margin is set to -25 since it was giving me the same gap. If I set up bottom to -25 gap is still visible on mobile?

How do I make the rows with 0 spacing between them?

Theme is Classic Landing Page Home Page http://artcny.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/Screen-Shot-2017-12-26-at-11.02.31-AM.png

Hey, add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel:


.owl-carousel .owl-stage { padding: 0!important; }

Cheers

That worked, Thanks!

You’re very welcome :)

Hey! I have now gone from beta to release your latest update on our main page. But have had great problems with Adsense. When I publish a new post, adsense rarely works, take a few hours before they get started. And if I click on an old blog post adsense rarely works. Have not had this problem before!? Please help. www.crafty.se

no, there must be something wrong! Every time I publish a new blog post, it will take about 10-20 minutes for an ad to appear. And if an ad appears immediately, it’s the same ad (alibaba). This was never a problem before this update of Salient.

http://www.crafty.se/70fb901a-4791-4cfb-9488-146e2b8dae9e/ http://www.crafty.se/35e39750-642a-4b3a-9866-411f795458b5/ http://www.crafty.se/963df2a8-4ee6-4add-b1f0-54f930f55006/ http://www.crafty.se/b1136422-30ea-4a6f-9245-4f18321d1be1/

Hey again – every time I’ve checked your post URLs I’ve seen normal adsense based blocks – if this problem is limited to the first few minutes after creating a new post, I would need to have access to create a test post and take a look to begin assisting. Do you have a ticket open with your admin credentials?

I have opened a ticket

Hey guys,
What’s up with your drunk footer? It either appears, it ether disappears – heck it knows what it does when it pleases it. Fix your code.

Hey Romanesco, again since this is not a known bug of Salient 8.5, I would need to at least see a URL where this occurs to begin troubleshooting it for you – assuming you don’t have a ticket open in our support forum.

Cheers

The problem disappeared once I added a “Footer Reveal Shadow”.

This theme is really messed up. Gives an “404 not found” out of the blue with no reasonable explanation. No tweaks or reset fixes the issue. C’mon guys, is that what you call quality?

I’m setting up a hierarchy of categories based on your latest blog demo (with your imported settings) and while one of the category works, the other gives 404 errors while being configured the same. Tried doing it from scratch – same error. This is a waste.

Hate to say it, but its really not worth the investment. And I’m yet to leave a review.

Hey again Romanesco,

category archive pages are created automatically in WordPress and by default Salient doesn’t modify the query. It’s impossible to say what’s occurring in your setup without seeing it. i.e. what are permalink settings, what plugins do you have active, is specific to a single category name etc. Please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so we assist you https://themenectar.ticksy.com

Sorry to have vented on you, but it was extremely frustrating to stumble on the issue after investing a night in creating my blog posts.

I trickled down the issue in the naming structure – turns out the word(ing) “portfolio” can’t be used as a category or else it gives that error. I also noticed that unless I make the bottom most category the primary one, the link won’t work.

Once I applied the above fixes, the URLs went thru.

Hey, no worries. The portfolio slug conflict would occur because Salient has a post type already named portfolio, so depending on how you’re naming your permalinks it could have indeed caused an issue.

Cheers

There is a serious issue with your Image With Hotspot element – it randomly adds points that can’t be removed. Please fix asap.

This happens whenever a hotspot is added to an image. Try to add and then remove it, update the post and then check – you’ll notice the hotspot would not disappear.

Hey, thanks for the clarification – I can only see this occurring when attempting to delete the hotspot when there’s only one hotspot i.e. trying to remove it to leave no hotspots at all. Are you unable to delete any that you add when you have multiple hotspots?

Cheers

I’m attempting to delete them all and its not working.

Hey! Presales : Does your theme support ads? I’m looking a clean theme for my wordpress website. I want it to be adsense optimized as well. Like maximum ads with minimum congest. Thanks and I have already considered buying the theme, just waiting for the reply! Thank you again. Edit : I also want to change the colors of gradient. Is it possible.

Hey allahmoncybency!

1. Salient doesn’t have a dedicated ad element in the page builder, but you could add in your desired ad code anywhere you desire. Also, we just recently added the ability to define sticky sidebars in the 8.5 updates, which compliment ad setups nicely – you can see this in action in the new blog based demos

2. Gradient colors are defined by you in the theme options panel.

Cheers

Hello,

How do I remove the space that is marked with yellow in following picture: https://www.tasteland.se/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/skarmklipp.png

I will update and see

The space is now much smaller when the column margin is set for none, but there is still some space. Please have a look on the picture below: https://imgur.com/a/Z5PAP

Hey, it looks like the image you’ve supplied in the image element is not quite big enough to fill the area. If you shrink you’re screen you’ll see they become flush – try reuploading https://i1.wp.com/www.tasteland.se/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/2017-03-31_3.png?fit=600%2C300&ssl=1 to be slightly larger

Hi there, How do I disable the header on a single blog post? I would like to get rid of the entire section that houses the title and just being right away with my Salient Composer content under my transparent menu.

Hey Romanesco, add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel:


.single-post #page-header-wrap, .single-post .heading-title { display: none!important; }

Note that in order to have the transparent header still trigger, you’ll still need to be setting a BG image or color for your post headers

Cheers

Any chance for you to add a simple dropdown option to the Blog Header Type settings in the future? Also, how I’d be able to target only certain categories?

I’ve noted the request for the wishlist. Unfortunately WordPress doesn’t add any css classes relating to the current category assigned to the post on a single page so there’s no way to quickly modify the above snippet to target only specific categories. However, instead of adding the provided snippet into the Salient options panel, which would apply globally, you could paste it into the Salient Visual Composer CSS Box on a per post basis

With the new theme I get ads from other than just adsense. Anything you know about?

Hey AlexanderMJ,

Salient does not add any ads into the theme or alter how adsense would populate, are you using a plugin to add them?

How do you make a “Single Image” to be the actual size?

Hey joshuabbutler,

The single image element stretches to fill the column it’s contained in, if you’re trying to place a non responsive image with static px based dimensions, it would require using the default add media button in a text block if you didn’t want to use css

Cheers

The Blog elements as displayed in the bottom of the page on this demo http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-corporate/ , are not working on my page. I use the same page theme, and when blog is selected to be masonry no sidebar, it brakes. Any thoughts on what is causing it? Theme, WP and all plugins are up to date. This only happened recently, was working and displaying fine few days ago?

Hey, could you kindly explain in greater detail what isn’t displaying correctly with them or provide a screenshot? From my end those two sections look as I would expect given the chosen blog style: https://imgur.com/a/u80cI

I cleared cache, and cookies and it fixed it. I wonder what caused it though. Anyway, it is OK now. Happy New Year!

Glad to hear :)

Happy new years to you as well!

Hi ThemeNectar team. Thanks a lot for this template, it’s amazing. I purchased the product a few years ago and finally got time to install it. Please check here: barcoslastminute.com I have 3 questions for the mobile version: 1. How do I reduce the height of the white header? 2. How do I hide the white header after the first page? 3. The Google Maps page is not loading on mobile. How do I fix it?

Thanks a lot Sergi

Hey Sergi!

1. You could set the mobile logo height to a smaller value than it’s currently at, however it also appears that you have extra space built directly into your logo http://velerosbcn.wearecoli.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/Veleros-last-minute_black.png I would reccomend resaving the image without that cushion on the top/bottom

2. You would need to disable the fullscreen page row functionality on mobile via the option “Disable On Mobile” to achieve this

3. Can you verify that you’ve entered the needed API key for that element in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab?

Cheers

Thanks a lot for your quick response. 1. You are right, fixed! 2. Done 3. I just did it and it works fine

On top of that, I really want the mobile version: 1. Is it possible to make changes that only apply on mobile? Or I will have to create a brand new site and then point it every time a user visits from mobile? 2. On the homepage I want to highlight the white text (paragraph) so it’s more legible. Can I add a box shadow only on mobile? 3. How can I disable the hotspots on mobile? They are not displaying well. Can I replace them with just bullets under the image? (only on mobile)

Thanks Sergi

Hey Sergi, in general VC offers you a way to hide columns based on the viewport in the responsive settings tab when editing a column. So you could potentially create multiple versions of your columns and set them to display on your desired device

Cheers

Hi,

Is there a CSS code for adding a text shadow to the Navigation Menu items?

Thanks!

Also, is there a way to add an image as the background of the left header?

Hey cwayneboss!

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

#header-outer header#top nav >ul >li >a {
    text-shadow: 0px 4px 9px rgba(0,0,0,0.5);
}

#header-outer { background-image: url('img-src.png'); background-size: cover; }

Cheers

does the animation (for example in demo “Band”) slow down the overall page performance or not? Because the site hovers in already with an effect and all elements are loaded after you scroll, so would it be faster if you turn everything off?

Hey cedzufrei,

The elements are still loaded in on page load the same as when there are no animations set. The only difference is the css values are changed when the elements are scrolled into view

Cheers
