Hi,
After updating to the latest salient theme we noticed anyone making edits via firefox can’t update any content. I tried 4 different versions of Firefox and none of them allow you to save a content change – however other browsers such as Chrome do. Is this something the developers are aware of? Many of our content managers have requested help since the latest update.
Also, we have tested this update on other sites to narrow the issue down but all seem not to be working with the past latest versions of Firefox. Thanks!
P.S. I also updated WordPress and using the latest version of the salient visual composer as suggested in a previous comment – still no luck.
Update: Fixed! I removed the visual editor via backend and installed the same version (but new?) again and worked. Just need to be careful with a site with hundreds/thousands of active users! 
Hey tritontester! I’m glad to hear you got it sorted now 
Something may have just been cached after your update to the Salient VC.

Hello, I’m trying to override nectar_options_img in my Child Theme functions.php but it does not seem to work: Adding add_action( ‘init’, ‘nectar_options_img’); in functions.php of the child, crashes the site. Thank you!
Hey!
Unfortunately in the current version that specific function is not child theme ready – i’ve noted to make it compatible in the next release. If you’d like a beta copy with that added in early just shoot me an email in regards 
Nice, looking forward to this. Love Salient as a theme too 
Glad to hear 
Hi ThemeNectar, is possible use my license for more sites or is valid just for once?
Hey c4b, Envato limits the use of the theme once per domain
Cheers
Is there a good example how a language selector is integrated into a Salient menu bar design? The Salient design is so nice but I haven’t found a good way to integrate the language selector. I am not looking for technical advice just some good design example of folks who use Salient on a multilingual website.
Hey wolfgang2016,
Unfortunately we don’t have a demo for this – what plugin are you using for your multi language setup?
Cheers

Hey rkatta,
Could you please do the update again or provide a staging URL so the issue can be seen? Also, after you updated did you verify it wasn’t related to this: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/updating-salient/#troubleshooting

Hi Guys,
Please check this page: https://www.petcheckers.co.uk/dogs/
There’s an overlay over the text when viewed on mobile for some reason and I can get rid of it.
Can you help?
Thanks
Hey 0754ben84, autooptimize seems to have caused it – to correct it easily, just add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel:
.nectar-recent-posts-single_featured.multiple_featured .recent-post-container {
z-index: 10!important;
}
Cheers
Hi. Trying to import Corporate-2 demo, but get stuck at 99% and little wheel keeps on spinning. Tried several times with clean install, but same issue. Please advise. Thanks.
Hey atlantchiropractic, have you tried to increase your server’s max_execution_time? Also – has anything ended up getting imported at all even if incomplete? e.g. some of the images, pages etc
Cheers
After couple of tries I just reloaded page. Looks like everything was imported except few images. I guess those are stuck and have to replaced my me 
Hey, glad you mostly got it working now 
If you’d like us to take a further look, could you please open a ticket in regards? https://themenectar.ticksy.com
hi there, I need to know how can I put a shortcode in your portfolio VC in your salient theme like this screenshot. https://s.nimbus.everhelper.me/share/1375595/6pp25it6f5ogqye9pis2 my site is here https://spotworks.com.sg/portfolio/ and I need to put social icon share on the image pop up. can you tell me where can I put the shortcode?
hi there support I am trying to put the shortcode <?php echo DISPLAY_ULTIMATE_PLUS(); ?>
on this portfolio page. https://spotworks.com.sg/portfolio/
but it seems that you are using javascript file named magnific.js to create that page. now may I know how can I put that shortcode in salient theme? because I need to have the image to show social sharing button on top of it like below screenshot.
https://s.nimbus.everhelper.me/share/1375595/6pp25it6f5ogqye9pis2
PS: I am working for a client and I had the purchased code but it seems your support ticket didn’t recognize the purchased code that I entered there.
Hey jacobian64,
Modifying the content that appears inside of a magnific popup would require custom development as the current portfolio works by passing an image URL to magnific – there’s no area to add in custom markup by default and the magnific script is what creates all of the markup
Cheers
Great theme!
Is it possible to get the customizable post header menu to appear for custom post types (Only shows up for regular posts by default)?
Thanks in advance!
Thanks bradcrumb!
This would require a mod to the nectar_page_header function in the functions.php to include your CPT
Cheers
Hi. I did not use the Nectar slider because I made a new row that want to act as the first screen of the homepage.
However, the default splash screen shows up. I want that out. How do I do it?
Nevermind, I resolved it myself. Thanks!
Hey envato999, glad to hear 
Cheers
I want to delete the logo completely since I do not want to have anything at the top of the page, could you help me? thank you very much
Hey Dooply!
add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel:
body header#top #logo { display: none; }
Cheers
Hello -
We are using the Team Member Full Screen Modal layout.
Looks great!
Is it possible to reduce the padding of the Team Member BIO / Description so that the text fits into desktop browsers with smaller heights without being cut-off.
See: bit.ly/2CXLSUl
We tried the Custom CSS scroll option below but we didn’t like how it looked.
Thanks, Doug
/Change the Max height on Team Member Modal Layout/
.nectar_team_member_overlay .team_member_details { max-height: 500px; overflow-y: scroll; }
Hey Doug!
add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel:
body .nectar_team_member_overlay .team_member_details {
padding: 3% 3%;
}
Cheers
I need small help. I need edit >> Boxed Layout << i need Width 85% but i can’t edit this.
Hey w3sumon,
add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel:
@media only screen and (min-width: 1000px) {
#boxed, #boxed #header-outer, #boxed #header-secondary-outer, #boxed #slide-out-widget-area-bg.fullscreen, #boxed #page-header-bg[data-parallax="1"], #boxed #featured, body[data-footer-reveal="1"] #boxed #footer-outer, #boxed .orbit > div, #boxed #featured article, .ascend #boxed #search-outer {

Hey Phil,
So I was changing a the Nectar Slider at the top of my landing page but for some reason my site isn’t visible now.
http://csmurphy.comI can see the scrollbar to the side indicating the content, my flavicon in the address bar, heck even other pages like the new one I put together yesterday is visible http://csmurphy.com/Inktober2017 but everything else just isn’t visible.
Any idea as to why this is happening?
-CS
Upon further investigation on firefox I noticed that if you left mouse click in the middle of the screen and hold it down then drag you can my site but super small. Works on all mobile devices as well.
Hey CSMurphy, I’m not seeing a BG image set for the first slide in your Nectar Slider – can you add one in? When using the Nectar Slider at the top of a page the page transition screen waits for the first slide to load before showing the content – however in this case, there’s nothing to load so it’s currently stuck.
Oh man yes that was totally the case. Thank you again man I really appreciate your time!

You’re very welcome 
Hi,
Is it possible to change the column gap width, for example we have 3 columns with coloured backgrounds and want to make the gap between each column larger?
Hey Micatuca,
This would only be possible if you set a row inside of each column and then a child column with the BG color within the row, this way you’d have full control over the padding outside of the colored column i.e. the distance betwene them.
Cheers
Hi there, I have a problem with a shape divider on a nectar slider that makes the bullet nav unclickable (ticket 1426379). I need to get back to the client asap.
Urgent help appreciated, thanks
Hey anton123,
Unfortunately what you’re trying to do is not possible with CSS alone, you can not cover an element and then bring a child of that very element ontop of the stacking context of the other element you’ve set to a higher z-index. The only way to make it work without using JS to move the pagination up a few levels in the dom (outside of the slider wrapper) would be to use the next/prev slider controls that are not covered
Hello, just checked my site out on FireFox and Internet Explorer and I’m having compatibility issues on IE and images not showing on FireFox – what can be done to amend this?
Hey Tacita,
Please share your URL in regards so I can see what’s going on in your setup
Cheers
Hey, thanks for sharing – currently i’m seeing your site load the same in FF and IE, could you provide a little more info on what to look for or perhaps a screenshot of the issue?
Cheers
Hi there,
Turns it was a caching plugin that caused all the issues – and there were plenty! Thanks so much for the help.
We do have another issue though which has been popping up recently in new pages. We have an issue where there’s a white space between the menu and the first row. Tried lessen the margin, tried adding another row and adding negative values in the margin there (that works for the footer where we have the same issue of a white space) but nothing seems to help. Example page – http://retailcapital.co.za/sme-toolkit/ – looks fine of desktop with no spacing issue but on mobile and tablet sizing, the gap is there.
Would really appreciate some assistance on this, especially for future pages as well.
Thank you!
Hey Tacita,
Please try changing your theme skin from current one to “material” in the Salient options panel > general settings tab
Cheers
Hi ThemeNectar,
Thank you so much, that solved the spacing issue! We didn’t notice at first but we now have an issue with our secondary header social icons due to changing the skin. The icons are not aligning correctly in the blocks on the Material skin. How can that be fixed?
URL in the thread but also see attached screenshot – https://imgur.com/uq5pYiY
Thank you kindly, Tacita
Hey Tacita,
The Material skin shouldn’t be adding a border for the secondary header social icons by default, do you have custom css for that?
Cheers
Padding setting not correct on mobile 1 col view I am not sure what I do wrong but, if I use a fullwidth row with 2 col and set each col to padding 8%, all sides, it works on desktops but not on mobile 1 col view. On mobile there is no padding top and bottom at all. I use the latest theme version. Is this a known issue?
Hey markimark,
Please share the page URL where this is occurring so I can take a look?
Cheers
sorry, but I think I have solved the link problem. sorry again.
Hey, glad you sorted that out – I was trying to locate the column from the first issue with the 8% padding bug. Could you let me know where on your site I can find that to take a look?
I try to use custom css on page settings to hover title of blog section, I can hover excerpt or grav-warp using css, but post-header or title wont work, any suggestions?
Hey IxDera,
Could you share your URL and paste in here what CSS you’ve been using so I can verify it’s correct?
Cheers
Does Composer support a primary sticky header and a secondary burger menu (something like http://www.ey.com/gl/en/services/specialty-services/digital)?
Hey archieophobia,
There’s a page builder element to allow for a sticky menu to be added anywhere in the page it’s added, it’s kind of similar to what you’ve linked: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-corporate/about/
Cheers
