When will WooCommerce 3.4 be supported, the update creates huge UI issues in Salient 8.5.5.

Hey jadenblack, the update is coming out today however there’s currently no known UI issues with 3.4 and Salient 8.5.5 – can you please list specifically what you’re referring to?

I have several categories in my store, is there an easy way to use the page builder to set a custom look for each of my WooCommerce category pages?

Hey Gallitin,

You can only alter the page header background BG image for each automatically created archive category page from WooCommerce. You can do this by adding an image to the field named “Category Header Image” in the WP admin panel > products > categories > category. Just make sure you have a page header set for the main shop page as well

Cheers

Hi, how, Or is possible to do the update directly in wordpress?

Thank you in advance

Hey 2bii_net,

You can use the plugin called “Envato market” in regards: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/updating-salient/

I am setting my portfolios into my website using the salient-frostwave demo. Each portfolio project i do shows up in the front end with the dates i created the portfolio itself, i don’t like/want this. I look everywhere to change this behavior within the settings but no luck. Please let me know how i can have my portfolios without showing the dates they was created.

Hey carlandenet,

There’s an option for that in the Salient options panel > portfolio > functionality tab called “Display Dates on Projects?”

i have found the way to remove the dates from my portfolio. now i want your support please to do this following: - i want to add in the sidebar of my portfolios the URL and dates of the projects as well as the features header. Here is an example from this site: https://www.awakensolutions.com/portfolio/bromelin/. All 4 header as you see. - I want to add more Extras Colors to use. how do i add more extra colors without changing the existing ones coming with the theme?

Please advise. thanks.

Hey carlandenet,

there’s no theme option for output the date/URL automatically in that area, though could manually add it into the sidebar area for each project. That user may have done some custom development to format it like that as well. The default formatting looks like this: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-frostwave/portfolio/blackbox/ the content you enter into the editor goes on top, and the attributes get populated automatically below. There’s also no way to add more colors than the main 6 slot color scheme (4 accent/2 gradient) without custom development. However, many elements allow for a custom color selection, outside of the main color scheme.

Hello,

Can you tell me is it possible to have 2 different portfolios in different styles? I would like to create a website which has a landing page with 2 options to go to either my photography portfolio or my design portfolio. I want them both in a masonry style layout but I want the design portfolio in a style that takes you through to another page to read more about each project. But with the photography portfolio I would just like to have a lightbox pop up. I would also like to have the options to ‘view all’ along with the the options to define each category.

Thanks,

Chris

Hey Chris,

The portfolio element inside of the page builder can be used in any style multiple times on a single page or on different pages.

Cheers

Is it possible to remove the grey lines that appear between the search and hamburger icons?

Thanks

Hey MarcGarner,

Change the snippet to this:

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


.ascend #header-outer[data-full-width="true"] header#top nav ul #search-btn a, .ascend #header-outer[data-full-width="true"] header#top nav ul .slide-out-widget-area-toggle a {
  border: none!important;
}

Cheers

Works great, thanks Brilliant theme and support as always.

You’re very welcome MarcGarner :)

Hi! When is next version out? Cheers

Hey ladydekade, the major feature based release in 1-2 weeks but today we’re releasing a minor update just for the WooCmmerce 3.4 compatibility

Cheers

Hi,

How to disable link to phone number when on Desktop?

Hey radekcho,

Can you share your actual URL so I can see the location you have it in to assist?

Thanks

Hi there,

Since changing my theme from Material to Ascend, I’ve found an issue with my submenu alignment.

There appears to be a space between the submenu and the menu, where there shouldn’t be.

But weirdly, as soon as I go to inspect the element… they line up perfectly again – as in they’re flush against each other, with no gap. It’s weird.

Here is the page: https://www.wilkinsonbutler.com/media/ Here is a screenshot: https://imgur.com/a/T7O9zGC

Thanks

Hey woodsier, I’m seeing that right before the snippet was entered there’s stray text of ”.services-cta-2” which is invalidating the code I wrote for you – can you remove that and test again?

https://i.imgur.com/yw5iXR6.png

Cheers

Ah, tha’s done it! thanks so much for your help. Do you know if this is something that will be fixed in a future release?

Hey woodsier, we will be looking further into that specific setup – I’ve verified that it only does occur with the header resize effect/non material skin

Cheers

I too am wondering when this theme will be GDPR compliant. I’m aware that the theme itself doesn’t gather data but GDPR also means explicitly asking users for consent. For instance, under the comment section there’s supposed to be a consent checkbox that asks if the website is allowed to store a cookie with name, email and website url in it on the visitors website.

Also, there are a number of WooCommerce 3.4.0 related files that are out of date as well. At first glance I can’t see too many changes there though.

Any idea when Salient will get these very necessary updates?

Hey C44Supra, the update to sort the WooCommerce warning message brought with 3.4 is coming out today – I’ve also added in the new checkbox for the default WP comment form.

Thanks

Awesome!

Cheers C44Supra :)

Hey Salient, The white navigation bar on mobile used to be transparent on ipad and mobile. All of a sudden its not transparent anymore with my logo laying flat on top of the background image. it looks like this now. Screenshot: http://prntscr.com/jnuluc

This is what it’s supposed to look like. Screenshot: http://prntscr.com/jnun3y

Thanks!

Hey Vaveili,

the only way to have a mobile transparent header is to enable the option “Header Permanent Transparent” in the Salient options panel > header navigation > transparency tab – do you have that active?

Cheers

WPBakery Page Builder – visual (Backend) editor is not working?

Hey Nicko_217, the front end editor is disabled in Salient, it’s available in the current beta release though

Cheers

Hi! Is Salient 8.5.5 compatible with WooCommerce 3.4? I was just about to update Salient and WC to 8.5.5 and 3.3.5 respectively, but WC just kicked out 3.4. I need to know before I update. I asked Tahir with support, and he referred me to you. Thanks!

Hey BestSlopeDesigns!

Salient is compatible with both, however 3.4 displays a warning that there is outdated template overrides coming from Salient (it shouldn’t effect the shop though). If you don’t want to see the warning yet, but stick with 3.3.5

Cheers

Hi ThemeNectar.

When using Full Screen Rows + Passepartout (set to 20px), there is a 20px showing of the next full screen row at the bottom of the current page. Is there a CSS rule to fix this?

Please see: http://designflowstudio.com/lux/

Many thanks Mike

Hey Mike,

Try either setting the Passepartout to match the color of your header navigation or turn on the transparent header effect (Salient options panel > header navigation > transparency tab)

Cheers

Thank you for your reply. So it works Passepartout works find with transparent header, however not with a solid background header.

It seems that the height of .container-wrap needs to be adjusted with CSS somehow? Any thoughts.

I would really like to use Passepartout with a solid header if I can.

Many thanks, Mike

Hey Mike, it would require a JS mod as of now – I’ll be adding the fix into the current beta. If you’d like a copy please reach out in regards via the contact form on my author page

Hi ThemeNectar,

URL: http://www.designreborne.com/projects/berenson/portfolio/bernardo-amestoy/

It appears the first time you click on one of the thumbnails throughout the website, the caption never displays on that first image. Why would that be happening?

I’m not sure why but I am finding it extremely difficult to add simple captions to the images. Can you help me out to resolve this issue?

Many thanks.

Best, Alan

Hi ThemeNectar,

Thank you for the reply. It appears to only happen in Firefox Quantum 60.0.1 and macOS High Sierra 10.13.4

The caption appears in both Chrome and Safari.

Any thoughts or suggestions?

Best, Alan

Hey designreborne,

So far I haven’t been able to replicate this yet with browserstack using that setup – I’ll continue to try and test to see if I can cause it to occur to troubleshoot

Hi ThemeNectar,

Unfortunately, I am still faced with problem of the first caption not appearing on the first image within the portfolio found here:

http://www.designreborne.com/projects/berenson/portfolio/bernardo-amestoy/

Can you please look into this and hopefully find a solution as to why this is happening and how to fix it. Many thanks.

I’ve attached two screenshots comparing with and without a caption. Hope they help.

Without Caption: https://www.dropbox.com/s/w05a7ull2yioa2e/Screen%20Shot%202018-06-05%20at%2012.45.15%20PM.png?dl=0 With Caption: https://www.dropbox.com/s/9enpywsntp7g6yf/Screen%20Shot%202018-06-05%20at%2012.45.58%20PM.png?dl=0

I’ve tried mulitple things even changing the order of the images to replacing the first portfolio and it happens to still happen but only within Firefox. Please investigate this matter for me.

Best, Alan

Hello there, I hope you are doing well. Can I select a 2 Columns portfolio. It seems there is no option to select it. Is there any other way to activate it. Would you mind implementing a square thumbnail option for portfolio too.

Another question is that can I implement a minimal portfolio layout with my existing set of color themes. I don’t want to demo import as it will change a lot of things. Can I implement it through templates. Thank you so much. Love your theme!!

Thanks hasanaliakhtar, I hope you’re doing well also :)

1. You can achieve two columns with CSS, if you can share your URL I’d be glad to provide it for you

2. A square option is available when you’re using the masonry option, but i’ve noted the idea to add it in non masonry layouts as well

3. The project styling shown on the minimal portfolio demo is “Meta overlaid – bottom left aligned”, you can select it in the portfolio element in the page builder :)

Cheers

I am finalizing it and will surely let you know once it will be completed because I really like the 2 column portfolio. In my humble opinion your theme is the best without any bugs I haven’t faced any issues thus far but kindly consider to add one more minimal portfolio layout with a contemporary sleek look(more white space) less modules background color. Purely minimal, elegant and soft. I will truly appreciate that.

One last question If I wish to have this kinda banner look what would be the solution:

https://www.pinterest.com/pin/707698528919983088/

I guess I have to make this shape and design in photoshop and place it as a background image within that module. Or is there any other way around? And if I have to design one what dimensions you will prefer. Is 1920×1280 would be fine for all the screens? Thank you so much. Have a fantastic day ahead. Take care!!

Hey hasanaliakhtar, thanks for the request :)

You could accomplish something similar use the Salient row shape divider: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-promo/shape-divider/ when editing your row, check out the “shape divider” tab on top

Hi, how can I add a 1px border to the inactive “material” tabs so they’re more visible and it’s not just text next to the active tab. Also, how can I adjust the size of the tab menu? Thank you in advance!

Hey ttugalev,

Can you kindly share your URL so I can see your setup to provide the needed snippet?

Thanks

just curious when the new update will be out the “old woocommerce template files” error in wordpress?

Hey Fluut, we’re wrapping up the next feature based update now and will likely release a separate minor update just to remove that message, however there should be no issues with the shop itself from them. If you’d like a copy of the beta now to remove the, please reach out in regards via the contact form on my author page: https://themeforest.net/item/salient-responsive-multipurpose-theme/4363266

ah sweet. Yeah I noticed there were no problem’s. Was just checking if you guys were on it ;) Thanks for the quick reply. And excellent theme btw. Love it!

Thanks a lot Fluut, that’s awesome to hear! :)

Great theme but it seem like the animation not working on mobile phone. for example like the column animation not show on my phone device(ios) but working well on desktop view. is there any ways to make it work on mobile?

Hey soklay,

the column animations are disabled intentionally on mobile for performance reasons, however we’ll be adding some mobile animations in soon :)

Cheers

That would be nice to add the ability to set certain character in Bold natively in the gradient text tool. Cheers E

Hey fantome_in,

for now you could wrap the desired characters in a bold tag:

text text <b>text</b> text

Cheers
