Hi Phil,
Is it possible to have the number of views in the most popular widget instead of the date or have the choice in an upcoming update. Thanks 
Hey youyou78,
In the popular posts widget, there should be a dropdown for “Popular Posts Order By:” with the options “highest views” and “highest comments”. Do you not have that?
Cheers
Hey Phil,
Yes I have that. But my request is on the display, to have an option to display the number of views instead of the date under the title. Is it possible add this on your todo list? thanks 
Oh, I understand now! That wasn’t an item on the wishlist yet, but i’ve noted it 
Great
thanks
You’re welcome youyou78 
I would also like to know how i can modify the color of the drop shadow when box element are selected by the users. for the moment i have a dark shadow on a dark background and it can’t be visible. Cheers E
Hey fantome_in,
1. Have you set the option for “Header starting text color” in the Salient options panel > header navigation > transparency tab?
2. Add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:
body.ascend .col.boxed:hover, body.ascend .wpb_column.boxed:hover {
box-shadow: 0 17px 65px rgba(255,255,255,0.33)!important;
}
Cheers
Thanks a lot TN , 2) work smoothly. But with 1) it change both the color of the text and the line. I would like to keep the text white and have only the line in blue.
! I also have a weird issue. When i set word as bold character inside a h2 section, The word font is modify, it didn’t use the default h2 font but switch to the default body font instead. Here is the problem :
http://unsigned.work/
I would also like to know if there is a way to use Extra color gradient color on the word in bold character, while the rest stay white ? Thanks again for your light ! Cheers E
Hey fantome_in,
1. add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel:
.page-id-324 #header-outer[data-lhe="animated_underline"].transparent header#top nav > ul > li > a:after, .page-id-324 #header-outer.transparent header#top nav>ul>li[class*="button_bordered"]>a:before {
border-color: #00D0FA!important;
}
2. Unfortunately there’s no way to have an inline gradient letter within a word that doesn’t share the same coloring as of now, however i’ve noted the idea 
Cheers
body.ascend .col.boxed, body.ascend .wpb_column.boxed {
background-color: #1a1c21;
}
.line, .next-arrow {
display: none !important;
}
.bold, strong, b {
font-family: Roboto !important;
}
But the pb is weird, it looks like an unexpected behavior. something overide the h2 bold presets define in salient typography option and replace it with the body font.
Hey fantome_in,
In regards to 3. you would need to add the following CSS to make this work as you’re intending:
body h2 strong, body h2 b {
font-family: inherit;
}
Thanks a lot TN it works like a charm !
You’re welcome fantome_in 
Hi guys! I’m just wondering if there is a quick way to swap columns for mobile viewport? For example, a two column row with the left column containing an image and the right column containing text. Is it possible to swap so the right (text) column appears above the left (image) column? Is there a way to do this with Salient or does anyone for that matter have any tricks up their sleeve?
Thanks in advance!
Hey aronjeney!
The only way to achieve this without custom modding as of well would be to duplicate the way and create both versions you desire. Then you could use the “responsive optinos” tab on your columns to show and hide the versions on each viewport you desire.
Cheers
Hi, how to get a galley like this please? themenectar.com/demo/salient-one-page
berkeleyassociates,
Please see the docs in regards: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/galleries/
Cheers
I tried it but still not getting the same style as http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-one-page one large square image, two small square images and one wide image … what to do?
Hey berkeleyassociates, If you’ve adjusted the “masonry sizing” option for your images and also have verified that your image grid gallery is set to display “fullwidth” for the layout, please share your URL in regards so I can take a look 
Hi,
I’m having a problem with using the lightbox with the image gallery element.
http://web.digital-medium.co.uk/portfolio/steele-financial/On this page I have set all of the images in the gallery to link to a lightbox. However, when I click on the image gallery, it seems to try to open the image in the lightbox but then I end up navigating to the file rather than viewing the image in the lightbox.
Any suggestions regarding how I can fix this?
Thanks!
Hey digitalmedium,
In the Salient options panel > page transitions tab, try switching your transition method from “ajax” to the “standard” option
Cheers
Yes that has fixed it. Thanks!
Glad to hear 
Hiya guys, pagination on my site just seems to have stop working. Any ideas? http://collection.photoireland.org/photobooks/
Hey quomo,
Have you tried to resave/change your permalinks in the settings > permalinks?
Cheers
A few times. Also, turned off all plugins. I had to add a category base to finally prevent the error. All good. However, there is something wrong with the code; if you look at the pagination at the bottom of the page: http://collection.photoireland.org/media/photobooks/page/3/ Looks like some closing tag is missing or the id pagination is not right. If the Display Pagination Numbers option is selected, the display of the numbers and the arrows seems borked. When unselected, the 2 arrows work fine.
Hey quomo, try to add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:
body .blog-fullwidth-wrap .post-area.masonry {
margin-bottom: 0!important;
padding-bottom: 100px!important;
}
.post-area.masonry #pagination { bottom: 20px!important; }
Cheers
Very thankful for your assistance, I appreciate you guys must be super busy. It works fine!
You’re very welcome quomo 
Oh, guys, didn’t realised that this is still giving an error: I set the permalink Category base to ‘media’, and it seems pagination does not work http://collection.photoireland.org/media/page/3/ It does work however in other automatic category base http://collection.photoireland.org/media/photobooks/page/3/ Any ideas? (Permalink has been refreshed and saved, and note that there is a Custom Post Type Parents linking the post type Posts with a page called Media)
any ideas?
Hello,
I have on the web info.labrujita.es the Salient Theme and the FormCraft plugin – Premium WordPress Form Builder
The tests, I do them in testing.labrujita.es
The form should look like this: http://testing.labrujita.es/form-view/2 (this link shows the preview).
But it is shown in this way: http://testing.labrujita.es/testing/
It does not look properly 
I have configured Form Stlyling, but I have not found the solution.
I have deleted the cache, the history, etc. and tried several browsers.
How could I solve this problem? I have seen that there are several users with the problem of forms in the template.
Thank you very much in advance.
Hey labrujita,
Can you please change your form styling in the Salient options panel to “inherit from theme skin” as opposed to the current set “minimal” option
Cheers
Hi, thanks for your response.
I have changed it but the same problem continues, I have already tried with all the possible configurations of the “Form Styling”.
I can provide a private copy of the Plugin if you want (it has a trial period).
Regards.
Hey, could you please reach out in regards via the contact form on my author page? I can provide you a copy of the beta version which should fix this issue 
Hi.
I’m still waiting for the solution. I contacted 2 months ago and I have not received an answer. Please, I need to solve the problem with the styles of the forms.
Regards.
Hey labrujita, are you using the current version of the theme (8.5.5)? It changed the inherit from theme skin forms styling option to allow plugins to override it easily. If you are, can you share the new URL where the issue can be seen so I can take a look? The old URLs don’t seem to be active at the moment.
Hi.
Yes, my version Salient 8.5.5
This is Website (page form): https://labrujita.es/vende/
My configuration: Options Panel > Form Styling > Overall Form Style > Inherit from theme skin
In the Page: If you use the button “Otro artículo” the form appears in Pop Up, right. But you can not see the top part of the form when the header is active on the page of the template.
If I remove the header, it does appear, as you can see here: http://labrujita.es/vender/
When I use PopUp, with and without header. The styles seem to work correctly.
Regards.
Hey labrujita,
add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel to get the popup to display over the header nav bar:
body .fancybox-overlay {
z-index: 80010;
}
Cheers
Hi, how can i show the single product information (add to cart, description etc) after the VC components?
Hey inje,
This would require a modification to the salient/woocommerce/content-single-product.php file or modification through actions in a child theme functions.php file to change the default structure of the page generated by WooCommerce
Cheers
Hello,
I notice that on this demo: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-service/ when I scroll, I sometimes go 2 sections down or up. Is there a way we can fix that? I’m asking because I’m using this demo on my site and I’m facing the same issue. Which is annoying and problematic because my potential clients miss crucial informations without ever noticing it.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Best regards,
Sam.
Hey Sam,
Could you let me know what browser and OS this is occuring on for you? By default when scrolling with a mouse, there should be a timeout until the animation has finished between each section that prevents you from scrolling again
Cheers
Hi,
I noticed this issue on Chrome. I didn’t check on other browsers.
Cheers.
Hey RadCon, could you kindly let me know what version of Chrome and what Operating system you’re on so I can attempt to replicate on my end?
Cheers
Hi,
Windows 10 and Chorme up-to-date, in their last version.
Best regards.
Hey RadCon, I’ll have to try some further testing since I’ve on the same setup without being able to trigger this. Thanks for the update
Hi, Where can I get the picture used for the Salient Service demo? The one with the couple drinking wine… themenectar.com/demo/salient-service/ Thanks!
Thanks!
You’re welcome 
Hello, did you know that the fancy box with the paralax hover style doesn’t work on Firefox or edge? You can test on your own demo -> http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-corporate-creative/
This element -> https://i.imgur.com/lhpvqEH.jpg
Do you have a fix? How can I solve this? My client is pressing me to solve this issue.
Hey Joaosg_pt, if you’re referring to the link in that box being clickable, this has been fixed in the beta. If you’d like access to it now please just reach out in regards via the contact form on my author page.
Cheers
Hey! That is exactly that! Already reached out on the contact on the author page 
Thanks Joaosg_pt, just sent a copy your way 
Hey there. In my Theme’s Dashboard, I only have “My Templates” and “Default Templates” to choose from. There is no Salient Studio tab? Can you help me out how can I make that available to me?
Hey tmrevlje, can you please verify that you’re on Salient 8.5.3 and the Salient Visual Composer 5.2.4?
Cheers
I am on 8.5.3 Salient. I was on 4.10 Visual Composer.
Updating now. Thanks!
You’re welcome tmrevlje 
Hello ThemeNectar,
I am building a portfolio using the agency template. I have the portfolio style set to ‘Meta overlaid w/ zoom effect on hover alt’ and was wondering if it would be possible to have the meta appear on hover instead on having it overlaid the whole time? That would be great! I guess it would be a javascript edit somewhere?
Thank you very much! Mike
Hey Mike!
add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel:
.portfolio-items .col .work-info .vert-center {
opacity: 0;
}
.portfolio-items .col:hover .work-info .vert-center {
opacity: 1;
}
Cheers 
Works perfectly, thanks!
Hey ThemeNecat,
another question has come up: Is it possible to have the meta always visible for just a single element? Because the custom grid items only display the meta and now do not show anything until I hover over them.
Thanks!
Hey mcmisha,
Change the snippet above to this 
.portfolio-items .col .work-item:not([data-custom-content=”on”]) .work-info .vert-center { opacity: 0; }
.portfolio-items .col:hover .work-info .vert-center { opacity: 1; }
Cheers
Hey ThemeNectar, thanks a lot and sorry for my late reply!
I tried the code that you gave me but unfortunately it does not work. Here is a link to my site: www.newer.mikekren.at The custom content grid item is the blue one at the bottom of the portfolio. I put some text in there but it doesn’t show.
Thank you for your help!
Cheers, Mike
Oh I just noticed that the meta text does not show on any of the portfolio items anymore when I hover over them.
Hey mcmisha,
Could you kindly share your URL in regards so I can take a look why that’s the case?
Cheers
sure, it’s http://newer.mikekren.at/
thanks!
Just to clarify: the problem now is, that the meta is invisible on the regular portfolio items on hover. The custom grid items work the way I want them. Thanks!
Try adding this in as well 
.portfolio-items .col .work-item[data-custom-content="off"] .work-info .vert-center {
opacity: 1!important;
}
Cheers
Cool, now it works – thanks!
Glad to hear mcmisha 
Hi,
I have an issue with my website using “salient theme” and a plugin called “Typing Effect”. I need your support here. When browser window is a bit smaller than expected, the Typing Effect plugin adds additional lines when typing the full sentence. Result is the whole page go down then go back up (when the sentence disappear). Question here: Is it possible to block only first “blue” area so then is won’t affect bottom part of the site. here is the site: www.hello-bowo.com.
Kindly ask you your support here. Very Thanks
Question here: Is it possible to block only first “blue” area height, so then it won’t affect bottom part of the site.
Hey joncheniere,
add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel:
@media only screen and (min-width: 1000px) {
.home .full-width-section.first-section {
min-height: 580px;
}
}
Cheers
Hi, I tried to but it doesn’t seem to work. I change to :
@media only screen and (min-width: 1000px) { .home .full-width-section.first-section { max-height: 580px; } }
Now the picture is ok but bottom text is still impacted by the link break effet. I let you have a look
Cheers
I mean the background is ok, but the rest is still impacted.
Hi! Thanks again a lot… I change to:
@media only screen and (min-width: 1000px) { .home .full-width-section.first-section { min-height: 662px; } }
It works fine 
Hey, glad to hear you got it working 
all the other portefolio page are setup correctly , i can open them in the admin section.
but it looks that they can’t be display properly. Any idea on what i am doing wrong ? Cheers E
Hey fantome_in,
Change the imported category “adverts” to something else if you have on an adblocker browser extension 
Cheers
thanks !
You’re welcome 
Hi is it possible to also have just the small recent posts without the large featured three post above it?
Hey ecdj,
add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel:
.blog-recent.columns-3[data-style="list_featured_first_row"] > div:nth-child(1),
.blog-recent.columns-3[data-style="list_featured_first_row"] > div:nth-child(2),
.blog-recent.columns-3[data-style="list_featured_first_row"] > div:nth-child(3) {
display: none!important;
}
Cheers
Hey TN,
my client want to achieve a page layout like this: http://bit.ly/2rKjlfN
Here´s the site of my client until now: http://bit.ly/2rLkcgi
How can I
1) set up a different full width fixed background image per page, that lays under the whole content and the left menu? 2) set a left and right margin of the main content row to have space between the menu and the right screen end?
My client likes the way the content “scrolls” over the fixed background image.
Thanks for your response.
Cheers, Thomas
Hey Thomas,
1. Unfortunately this wouldn’t be possible without some custom development.
2. add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel:
@media only screen and (min-width: 1000px) {
.row {
position: relative;
max-width: 80%;
margin: 0 auto;
}
}
Cheers
Hi, can I use this one with WPML because it wasn’t listed in the features?
Hey marcelgo, yes Salient should work with WPML 
Hey ThemeNectar,
Love this theme! great work.
im having a play around with your demo content, particularly the company-startup demo.
It seems that the background image is hardcoded somewhere in the files. (the paintbrush image).
can you point me where i can change this image please?
Hey laurenspero!
That image should just be set the row background image, which you can edit right in the page builder. Could you please share your URL in regards so I can verify?
Cheers
Hi! I have imported the minimal demo with success, but in the proccess I accidentally reset all the settings from the salient options. It seems many elements have been altered and i can’t find how to get them as they were. How can i make a clean import of a demo all the way from scratch? Thanks!
Hey daf13!
There’s a handy <ahref=”https://premium.wpmudev.org/blog/reset-wordpress-website/”>plugin to quickly reset your WP setup if you’re trying to start over and re-import the demo 
Cheers
