Hey dabomb, Salient is using a customized version of WPBakery page builder – I’ve tested templatera and a few element addons such as All in one addons/Ultimate addons. Some of their elements may be similar to ones Salient is already including, so there could be styling (css) conflicts with those. However, I’m unaware of any other issues.
Cheers
Thanks a ton for the response!!!
You’re welcome dabomb 
Awesome theme. I have 2 questions. On the Corporate Creative theme — how did you achieve the testimonial overlapping the image to the right of the text?
I’ve loaded the demo content for the Corporate Creative theme but cannot get fully rounded buttons even when this option is selected. Any idea why? Thanks!
Thanks A_K!
You can find the template for that in the Salient studio to add to any page http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/salient-studio/
If that’s not working for you, could you kindly share your URL in regards so I can take a look to assist?
Cheers
Hey! Thank you, found the template. There must have been a little buggy issue because the buttons are now working. Thanks for your assistance.
Hey A_K, glad to hear you’ve sorted it
Cheers
I’ve noticed that all of my sites using the Salient theme have stop autoplaying video headers in Chrome. I take it to be a new “feature” in Chrome 66, but it sucks. Any workaround to enable autoplaying video backgrounds? Thanks in advance!
Hey jojdan!
I can’t seem to replicate that on v66.0.3359.139 here: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-corporate-2/ can you let me know if you’re also seeing it occur there?
Cheers
Hey jojdan, I’ve tracked down the issue: https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2017/09/autoplay-policy-changes
The Nectar Slider video BGs don’t offer the option to add the “muted” attribute like row video BGs so Chrome won’t start playing until you interact with the webpage. However, I’ve added the fix for this into the current beta now where the video BGs have the muted attribute by default. If you’d like a copy of the beta, please reach out in regards via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar
Is there a way of turning animated page transitions and Ajax on for some pages and off for others? I would like to turn it on for home page and case studies (projects) but login page and account area it conflicts with the javascript so would like to turn off only for these pages, thanks in advance for your help
Hey anthonysinclair,
That would require some javascript modding as of now, is there any reason you don’t want to use the standard transition method instead of AJAX?
Cheers
Hi, thank you so much for the reply. I really do not mind using the standard transition, but the problem is when I use it, some of my pages for example my login page and register page do not load, it just loads a blank screen because of maybe a JS conflict? So I would love to have the nice transitions with the loading circle for majority of my pages but just turn it off for login, register, account and forgot password page so they load fine and there is not conflict. Thank you
Hey anthonysinclair! Could you kindly share your URL in regards so I can see what error is occurring with the login/registration etc. pages
Thanks
Hello author, after I did an upgrade through the Envato market plugin to the latest theme 8.5.5, my home page shows two issues. www.spicyspirit.com
The main issue is the text block under the home slider is missing the texts. Right now it shows a white belt.
The 2nd issue is the caption in the home slider “Results-Driven Digital Marketing” used to be displayed in one row without breaking up.
Do you know how to resolve these two issues? Thanks in advance!
Hey spicyspirit,
1. Have you also verified that you updated the WPBakery page builder plugin to latest version in WP admin > Plugins tab after the theme update & that no third party plugins you may have active are causing the issue?
2. add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel:
body #featured article .post-title h2 {
max-width: 500px;
}
Cheers
Hi! Did you guys ever add an html anchor header offset option?
The only answer I could find seemed to be this but it’s a few years old: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10732690/offsetting-an-html-anchor-to-adjust-for-fixed-header
Thanks!
Hey harrisdesigned, when using the “One Page Scroll Support (Animated Anchor Links)” option in the Salient options panel > general settings > functionality tab, the offset should be taken care of. If it’s not for you, please share the page URL so I can take a look
Thanks
Hi there!
Could you please check on the PRIVATE TICKET #1567210? The questions are below but I can’t attach images here. Thanks!
1. (see first image attached) In the blog posting, there’s ‘love this’ text and heart button and count. It doesn’t show because my background is black. only when hovered it shows up.
- How do I change the color of ‘love this’ and heart icon so I can still see it without hovering?
- How do I get rid of ‘love this’? Just incase I want to. (this code didn’t work)
.nectar-love-wrap { display: none!important; } 2. (See the second image attached) Comment on each posting.
- How do I change, ‘leave a reply’ to ‘leave a comment’?
- Also because my background is black color and general text color is white, you can’t see the actual comment with the comment box being white.
1) Can I change the comment display box background color to black?2) How do I give the comment display box white border?3) How do I make 'A WordPress Commenter says:' and the date color to white(because I'm going to try to make the box background black..)?Thanks for your help!
Best,
Hey badassray03,
I will take a look into it asap
Cheers
need to ask can I set up my site like this https://victorthemes.com/themes/sewell/portfolio-grid/ with this filter http://www.thestylejunkies.com with your theme. Plus can it also infinite scroll after every 40 properties.
Thanks
Hi, How do I change the icons? Where can I find reference to other icons to choose from ? i.e image=”software_transform_bezier.svg
Hey anthonysinclair,
All of the icon libraries are kept in the salient/css/fonts directory
Cheers
Thank you, is the most convenient way to search for an icon to navigate to this folder in Cpanel or FTP and open one by one? I am attempting to change four on the homepage, was hoping from bakery edit page you could just select the icon and browse a list of icons, this is usually much easier. Cheers
Hey anthonysinclair, there is indeed an icon element inside of the page builder – if you’re starting point was an older demo before that element was added, you could just remove them and add them through the icon page builder element
How can I include the full screen button in the player? http://www.igloofilms.net/alauda/
Hey,
In the Salient options panel > general settings > functionality tab, select “fancyBox3” for the “Theme Lightbox”. If you don’t have that option, you need to update your version of Salient
Cheers
Hi, How do I remove, all rights reserved salient at the bottom of the off canvas menu?
Hey anthonysinclair,
You can find that text in the Salient options panel > header navigation > off canvas navigation > off canvas menu bottom text field
Cheers
The theme comes with many demos content for specific category websites. Can we use any picture from the theme package for a particular website regardless of which demo content it is located?
Hey carlandenet,
Many of the theme images are swapped from placeholder images from unsplash.com
Cheers
how can I get a “Column Link” to open up in a new tab or window?
Hey sanjayswamy16, there’s no option for that by default on the column link – you’d need to use a nectar button instead.
Hi, how to remove the query strings from fontawesome and iconsmind?
Hey astutestudio, you’d need a plugin such as https://wordpress.org/plugins/query-strings-remover/ to remove the version numbers
A small bug in Firefox, the word “Search” does not show in the minimalist theme, when you lick on the search icon https://imgur.com/a/FoyxMno
Any idea when the new features will be released?
Thanks
Hey toolbox101,
Thanks for letting me know, I’ve noted to look into it. At this time we can’t give an exact ETA but we’re working on finishing up the last new features right now If you’d like the latest beta, please reach out in regards via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar
Cheers
So we cannot built a community website ? Also Can we copy the elements in different pages of different demos ?
Hey anazkhan,
1. We don’t have any demos using buddypress to use as a starting point
2. You can easily use any element in any page since they’re all available in the page builder
Hi I purchased theme & need support . Can we copy , download pages & conten ?t
Hey anazkhan,
Which pages are you looking to copy? Have you already looked into the Salient Studio and the Demo Importer?
http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/salient-studio/http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/importing-demo-content/
Hello, I’ve set up my team’s page using the Team Member tool. When on mobile and I open a bio I notice that the scrolling is not smooth/infinite but it stops as soon as I stop scrolling.
I’ve checked the code and changed the overflow into scroll mode, but it still doesn’t work.
.nectar_team_member_overlay { overflow-y: scroll; }
Could I please have a hint of where I should touch to make the scrolling smoother and equal as it is on the rest of the website? If needed this is the URL http://moyadesignpartners.com/studio/
Thanks guys!
Hey mircofragomena,
You would need to make an edit the init.js file located in the js folder and remove the following line:
fullscreenBioScrolling();
Hey, thanks for your answer. When I remove the line the whole text isn’t scrollable anymore – what scrolls is the page ‘behind’ the bio’s, but not the text on the bio. What do you suggest to change?
Thanks a lot for your help, means a lot at this stage of the project
Hey mircofragomena, you could try and add this CSS in as well:
@media only screen and (max-width: 690px) {
.nectar_team_member_overlay .inner-wrap {
overflow: scroll;
}
}
Cheers
Hey guys, again, thank you so much! It really means a lot receiving help at this stage – the project is almost complete, just a few bugs to fix. Unfortunately the code didn’t help, but it looks I have problems just on Apple devices..is this possible?
Hey mircofragomena, some devices were known to have issues scrolling on a fixed element which is why we added the javascript workaround to ensure overflowing content in the about modal was always scrollable. I’ve noted to investigate other solutions, however if the above has left the content unscrollable for you i’m afraid the best solution as of now is to add back in the default theme scrolling function
By chance is there a recommended plugin for a booking calendar? One that is easily matched to the themes options? Are there plans for you to build a calendar feature in Salient?
Hey mbianchi27,
We currently don’t have plans for a custom Salient calendar element, but i’ve noted your +1 for the idea on the wishlist. There isn’t any official one we recommend, but if you encounter any issues just let me know
Cheers
Hi guys. You wouldn’t be able to share some CSS to get the single blog post “full screen header” to be max 300px high? When I try it myself the blog post title is hidden (as it still sits in the middle of the viewport, rather than in the middle of the 300px section). Thank you !!
Hey SeanAUS120!
add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel
html .single-post #page-header-bg.fullscreen-header,
html .single-post #page-header-wrap.fullscreen-header {
max-height: 350px;
}
Cheers
Thanks. That works to get the header the right size, but still the post title and author section are sitting in the middle of the page (ie, they are hidden and not in the middle of the 350px header). I couldn’t see any CSS that was putting the post title there, so maybe its js doing that? Anyway to override it? Thanks!
Hey SeanAUS120, could you please share the URL where that’s occurring so I can take a look?
Thanks
Here you go – https://tinyurl.com/y7sums6a.
Thanks SeanAUS120,
add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel:
.single.single-post .fullscreen-header .blog-title { top: 50%!important; transform: translateY(-50%); }
#page-header-bg .row,
#page-header-bg .container {
top: 0!important;
height: 100%;
}
Cheers
Working perfectly thank you !!
Glad to hear SeanAUS120!
Hey devs at ThemeNectar,
First off, you guys rock. This is a great theme and has replaced my go to themes and is now my #1 of choice.
I need help trying to figure out something: The hover button transitions on mobile seem to stop on all buttons. On desktop the transitions are there and then gone on mobile and I can not find it in the CSS. I also tried adding my own transition using media queries but it wont work.
I would appreciate any help here. Thanks!
Hey jedininja007, that’s awesome to hear
They are intentionally disabled since on some mobile devices the hover state will hijack the first click and force the user to have to click twice to get the action to go through – if you want to enable them, I could assist with the needed css please just share your URL so I can take a look at the site settings
Cheers
I wasn’t aware of that. Well I don’t want to hurt the performance and for sure not the user experience.
Well, it will be helpful to know how to manually enable and disable with CSS.
Also, how to enable the transitions for mobile, mostly just the animated svg. The url is teamdesign.jedisites.com
Hey jedininja007!
1. Please reach out in regards with your admin credentials via the contact form on my author page so I can take a closer look https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar
2. This line would need to be deleted:
if(navigator.userAgent.match(/(Android|iPod|iPhone|iPad|IEMobile|BlackBerry|Opera Mini)/)) $that.attr('data-animation','false');
inside of the “svgAnimations()” in the js/init.js file.
