Hi, I have a problem about upload images. While i add new images on pages, system connection is down, back up on browser and gives several minutes to turn back. Like service unavaible and like that something. It seems hosting problem but not, because i tested with other themes. Can you help about this problem ? thanks.

Hey Fercan,

Since there’s no known issue like that, could you please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so we can take a further look into this? https://themenectar.ticksy.com

Thanks

Is it possible to have only the off canvas menu without the top menu?

Hey TruBrotha,

yes – you can enable the off canvas navigation in the Salient options panel > header navigation > off canvas navigation and then simply not assign a menu to the “top navigation menu” location. However if you’re trying to remove the logo it would also require a line of css. add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel:


body #header-outer #logo { display: none; }

Cheers

Hi guys, i just wanted to check up on the Frontend setting. Now i have gone through all the comments and the first request for this feature was over 3 years ago. Now im not a coder but in three years would it have not been possible to have this feature enabled? At least have some kind of option to turn it on in the backend.

With Ultimate addons and super doooper addons and absolutely fantastic super dooper addons for WPBakery VC it becomes nearly impossible to actually work in the backend as EVERY time we update the page we have to reload the page with the plugins and extensions etc.

Please consider having a sitdown with your team and implementing this feature again. Surely its time. Put a little disclaimer saying that there will beissues on the frontend if you use the feature…..At least give us the option seeing as all the other themes now using the latest VC plugin can edit from the frontend.

Hey Wobblefin,

still no response from you… please check email

Hey, I Just located your email and have responded in regards

I have comments disabled for my blog, but the whitespace where the comments would normally appear is still there. Is there a way to get rid of the white gap that appears between ‘Next Post’ and the footer?

Here’s a screenshot: https://imgur.com/a/wi5rs

Thanks, Tom

Disregard, I figured it out using custom CSS!

Hey Tom,

Glad you found what you needed :)

Hi. I made the edit suggested in the following, which worked well: http://themeforest.net/comments/6217350

But I’m wondering if there is a way to make this work in the child theme, so that I don’t have to edit the parent files?

Sorry I realize now that my comment wasn’t very clear. I actually used this solution to fix an issue I was having with the portfolio “recent projects” carousel. I only want it to show as one column but at certain resolutions it kept switching to 2 columns. Is there any solution for doing this but not having to change the core theme js file? Or is there a way I can have that js file loading from my child theme? I tried putting it in a “js” folder but it didn’t work.

Hey urbanstorm,

When setting all the columns to 1 on my end I can’t replicate this issue on any size screen: https://imgur.com/a/TCUqT can you kindly share your uRL in regards where the problem occurs?

Thanks

I messaged you.

Hi TN,

I’m testing a website at https://www.stickypresentations.com and noticed that iconsmind.ttf requires quite some resources. I use Imagify to shrink my images, because I always thought that images use up most resources when loading a page. Not true … I see on Pingdom that the images on my homepage only require 19% of the loading time, while CSS uses 14%, scripts 18% and other content types use 48% !!!

As you can see on this Pingdom screenshot: https://www.evernote.com/l/AARQrw2xImJMY4zEQOOSVjAluxnm0UjVL5o

Right now I’m using 3 icons on my homepage but I’m willing to remove them and use small images instead to reduce the loading time of my homepage significantly.

Can you tell me how I can prevent any icon scripts from loading while using the Salient theme? My client is really focused on speed rather than anything else.

Hope you can help me. Thanks on beforehand.

Cheers, Marc

Hey Marc,

That icon library only gets loaded when an icon from the iconsmind library is used. Remove those three you’re using and select some from the icon element within the page builder – You can use FontAwesome without loading anything additional :)

Cheers

Removing the 3 Icomoon icons and switching to FontAwesome or Linea indeed dropped my homepage load with over 400kb. Great solution !

As you can also see on my screenshot for the Lato font there’s 4 times a .woff file loaded. This means: 4 * 27kb = 100kb+. Why is that? Can’t this be more compact?

Hey htusco,

A different one gets loaded for each weight set of that font in the Salient options > typography. If you’re only using one weight, go through all the fields and ensure different weights are not set

Cheers

Hello,

We are having problems with the responsive options on columns when using full screen rows.

We tried it on our site and set it up like this: We setup 5 Rows Rows 1 and 5 are set to display on Desktop only Rows 2,3 and 4 are set to display on Mobile only When we are on Row 1, we have to scroll down 3 times to get to row 5, and it sort of jumps between rows 1 and 5 if that makes sense.

We then setup the theme on a test domain and did the following: Rows 1 and 5 are set to display on Desktop only Rows 2,3 and 4 are set to display on Mobile only When we are on Row 1, we can scroll down past each row, but rows 2, 3 and 4 are blank/empty on the front end, but we still have to scroll past them as if they are actually there.

Can you let us know what could be going wrong please.

Hey Micatuca,

I’m currently seeing the mobile/desktop columns showing only on the viewport that they should: https://imgur.com/a/INLH2 are you still expericing this problem?

Cheers

Hello ThemeNectar,

Still having problems unfortunately. I gerrymandered the full height of those layers by adding column padding, extra text, and using the full screen row overflow option to hide additional content.

Once I removed the extra text, various padding(s), it seems to work fine, but as soon as we duplicate the inner rows, and put in the responsive options, It all goes Pete Tong again.

Help

Following on from that Bat call, I suppose the best way to describe it is that we need to use a combination of full screen rows + responsive options + inner rows. I updated that link with how it looks now.

​Hi, I have been pulling my hair out trying to get my newsletter subscription form to style correctly but can’t get it to work. My MailerLite account lets me create a form and generates the JS or HTML for me but both don’t render properly in Salient theme, although they render perfectly fine in all browsers outside of Salient (using raw HTML). Could you please take a look and help me find a solution? https://goo.gl/BtQnvx

I even tried the MailerLite plugin and shortcode using VC Text Block element but that gave me the same exact results. I think it might be some CSS conflict or styling issue with Salient but I’m not a coder so I could really use some help.

Note: when I click inside the email form, the orange and white bar on the bottom move like a hover effect. Not sure where it’s getting that from.

Hey ehong33234,

Please share your actual URL in regards so I can inspect the page to assist – also, have you already tried the “inherit from theme skin” option for “Overall Form Style” in the Salient options panel > form styling tab?

Cheers

I set the Overall Form Style to Inherit from Theme Skin just like you said all bingo that did the trick. This is why I love you guys so much—thanks!

Glad I could help ehong33234 :)

On the video light when clicking on the full screen icon, I get ’ full screen is unavailable’. Is there a way to fix this?

Hey jedininja007,

Please share the URL where this is occurring so I can take a look

Cheers

Hello. I have a ticket open #1523519 and would like to have a followup on this from the developer. Thank you

Hey sbiddo, I took a look and responded earlier in the day :)

Can I add a solid button next to the hamburger menu icon on mobile?

Hey oneonline_hu,

As of now that wouldn’t be possible without modding the header.php file (which could be kept in a child theme)

Cheers

Is there a way to have a short video (8 seconds) play once and then fade into the home page content? Right now I have it so that the video loops and you have to scroll down to the content, www.williamrobertlouis.com/chawick

Hey tmudd89,

Unfortunately not without some custom development at this time i’m afraid

Is this a bug or just me? https://i.imgur.com/BNqvZc5.png

It relates  to this css:
.post-area.masonry.classic_enhanced article.post .post-featured-img, .blog-recent[data-style*="classic_enhanced"] .post-featured-img

Hey MatthewMurdoch,

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

.post-area.classic_enhanced .masonry-blog-item {
    overflow: hidden;
}

body .masonry.classic_enhanced .masonry-blog-item .inner-wrap {
  overflow: visible;
  border-radius: 0px;
}

.post-area.masonry.classic_enhanced article.post:not(.wide_tall) .img-link {
  width: 101%;
}

Cheers

Hey eladarale,

Try to run this plugin to regnerate your featured image sizes https://wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/

What are the odd’s that Salient has AMP support for post / blog pages?

Hey MatthewMurdoch,

this would require the use of a plugin such as https://wordpress.org/plugins/amp/ or https://wordpress.org/plugins/accelerated-mobile-pages/ as of now

Cheers

HEy guys,

Please take a look at the portfolio on the top of this page: https://aswiftplastering.com/

How do I remove the white overlay when the images are being hovered over?

Thanks

Hey 0754ben84,

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


body .portfolio-items[data-ps="8"] .col .work-info-bg {
  display: none;
}

Cheers

Dear Sir….....is there any Adsense space in your theme home page and posts?

Hey frbuttpk, you can use adsense through a widget to place in your sidebar(s) or through the page builder by an embed.

​Hi, we’ve found a weird bug. On a page we are using the ‘portfolio’ content element to display a portfolio of work.

Portfolio element settings: 3 col layout, all categories, style is meta below thumb with links on hover. We also have sortable enabled, horizontal filers enabled & pagination enabled as infinite scroll.

When you visit the frontend page > hover over a thumbnail the ‘read more’ button shows which is perfect. But, if you then go ahead and click on any filter item the ‘read more’ button no longer displays on hover. Is there a fix for this?

Hey jadecreative,

Are you using the most current version of the theme? (8.5.5) If so, please share your URL in regards so I can take a look to assist

Thanks

Hello.

I’ve used your theme to create website www.manahrana.si but I can’t seem to find a function how to set 1 product per row under categories on mobile (https://manahrana.si/k/zdrav-obrok/). A friend of mine did a similar site called https://vibrimed.eu/, also with your theme, but his shop has 1 product per row on mobile. I know my support ended, but I never asked anything and I can not find a way to fix this.

Hey st1FFFy,

Checking your URL out on mobile, i’m currently seeing each product on it’s on row – can you kindly provide a screenshot of you’re seeing and let me what what device you’re using?

Cheers

Hey! Reporting a bug: If you set padding on row in % rather than PX and have Parallax enabled, on MOBILE the padding does not display. On desktop it does. This means instead of % I have to use PX to ensure there is padding between top of row and content on mobile. This is kinda annoying cos % is so much more flexible than a fixed PX. :) x

Hey ladydekade,

most of the rows in the demos are using % padding – are you seeing this across the board? So far testing on an Iphone X/GS7 I haven’t been able to replicate, what device/browser are you using and could you also share your URL if you’re not seeing the same behavior on the demos?

Cheers

Hey! It’s on i6 I think. I’ve used PX in my set up for a quick fix – once design finalised Ill set back at % and get you to check for me xxx

Sounds good ladydekade :)
