What do I target to change the Mega Menu title? Example.. If the main nav is ABOUT – if you hove over, you get the mega menu. Within that, I’ve got three columns set up with links under each. Each of those columns are Column1, Column2, Column3. Then links under each of those. How can I change the Column1, Column2, Column3, to be bold?

I’ve tried targeting it, but it also turns the link itself as bold. I’m just looking for the Column1/2/3 to be bold only.

Thanks as always!

Never mind. Go figure… As soon as I ask, I figure it out. For those who may be wondering: it was by adding custom css and using this as the class: sf-with-ul

Hey noantsinmypants!

The megamenu headings should inherit from the Salient options > typography > Sidebar, Carousel & Nectar Button Header Font – if it’s not on your setup could you kindly share the URL in regards so I can take a look?

Cheers

Hi there,

I’m using Multiple Large Featured blog style at the top of my website.

I have adjusted the title width by using this custom CSS:

.nectar-recent-posts-single_featured .inner-wrap { width: 65% !important; }

What’s happening is that some of my post titles are being awkwardly split across several lines… as per this screenshot: https://imgur.com/a/QmRzPH9

Website here: https://www.journalistsfreedom.com/

See the inspected CSS on the right – for some reason the code is interpreting the post title into two seperate strings… which it’s not: https://www.journalistsfreedom.com/media-releases/alliance-for-journalists-freedom-announced/

Also, is it possible to easily alter the code to display a preview of the posts’ text under the headline? Could you point me to the right area of code?

Thank you so much in advance. I love using this theme.

Thanks

Hey woodsier,

Hi there, I reached out with my login credentials, but haven’t heard anything yet. Are you able to look into this issue when you have a moment? Thanks so much.

Hey woodsier, sorry about that! I just found your email and responded in regards

Hello,

I am checking my SEO. I notice that all the WooCommerce TABS have a H2 heading. This does not seem good for SEO-ranking as this has nothing to do with the product. Why are tabs like ’ information’ and ’ reviews ’ have a h2 class?

Would it not be better to make this h3 or h4?

Hey dzineee, are you referring to the single product page tabs i.e. “description, reviews” etc..? If so those should not be heading tags, but rather a standard ul li setup. http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-business/product/flying-ninja/ – could you let me know if you’re referring to another area?

Thanks

Yes I am talking about the product tabs, have a look at the following page: https://www.goedeshampoo.nl/product/revita-shampoo/

Then if you go into source code you will find that the tabs have H2 headers. For example <..h2>Extra informatie<../h2> <..h2>Ingredienten<../h2>

etc.

Hey dzineee, I thought you were referring to the actual tab buttons, not the heading for each section – Salient isn’t responsible for that heading tag. We just provide styling (css), WooCommerce at the core is outputting that HTML

Hi there, for some odd reason the height of the video under project / portfolio (under video settings) is nearly half, I’m using the same set-up for ver 7.6 with no particular issue with this feature but with 8.5.5 this is different (using same content, configuration etc.) I would appreciate some feedback. Thanks

Hey justconcepts, i’ll be adding the fix for that into the upcoming minor bugfix release – if you’d like a copy immediately, please reach out in regards via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Thanks :-) just dropped you an email as suggested. Cheers!

Thanks justconcepts!

Hi there. I would like to have a website URL to the single testimonial functions within the Salient Builder (e.g. if you click on the image of the testimonial author, redirect to their website). Can you help me out?

Best regards, Sam

Hey Sam,

For this, you’d need to add the link onto the parent column that contains the single testimonial

Hi, thanks for the quick reply. Forgot to mention I’m using this Single Testimonials in a carousel. So I’m not able to add a link onto the parent column.

Hey Slenx, unfotunately this wouldn’t be possible without custom development – you could always place a button under the testimonial with your desried link

How can i change the look and feel of the Woocommerce category grid?

Hey tacoro,

The current beta offers a new element for this – if you’d like test it out early please reach out in regards via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Cheers

When will an update be released that fully supports Woocommerce 3.4.x?

Hey geraldinekoenig, Salient 8.5.6 added compatibility and was released last week – what issues are you facing?

I haven’t updated yet, but it doesn’t say it’s compatible with WooCommerce 3.4.x on the right sidebar. It only says up to 3.3.x.

Hey geraldinekoenig, Envato doesn’t offer an option to select that version on the theme description page yet – however we noted it in our changelog http://themenectar.com/changelogs/salient.html

Is there a way to remove the author & avatar on blog post pages? Here’s a link to my site, http://loma.io/tuxedorecords/ I would like for just the date to be at the bottom of each post.

Hey tmudd89,

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


.masonry.material .masonry-blog-item .grav-wrap .text a,
.masonry.material .masonry-blog-item .grav-wrap img { display: none; }

Cheers

Hi, Is it possible to add general text or a widget within a mega menu column? For example have 3 columns of links, and a 4th with a title and paragraph of text, or perhaps even an image. I’ve seen this in other themes and wondered if it requires a different megamenu plugin to the included functionality. Many thanks.

Hey bluehatfish,

Unfortunately there’s no way to handle that by default with Salient – the use of a custom plugin would be required as of now

Cheers

Hi, i notice that i am not having the breadcrums on my pages. How do it make that happens. i need to be a able to let my visitors know where they are on the website, meaning below the page header, i need to show the breadcrums. Please let me know how i can do that. thanks.

Hey carlandenet,

You need to enable that featured within the Yoast SEO plugin

Cheers

how to make contact forms 7 as in the demo? http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-corporate-2/corporate-2-contact-us/ two columns

Hey Nicko_217, please see the documentation here in regards: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/importing-contact-form-data/

Cheers

Is it possible to move the “X” of the side menu. Screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/heXhfMp.png

When i do position: relative and right: 40px for example, it goes behind the menu – Iv’e tried z-index on a bunch of different classes, doesnt seem to have any affect.

Hey MatthewMurdoch,

You’d also need the header to sit on top of that layer since the button is contained within the header. Add this in as well:


body #header-outer, #header-outer.highzI {
z-index: 100000!important;
}

Hey

Is it possible to sort a portfolio page through buttons instead of the default header bar (that says Sort Portfolio: etc)? I want the buttons to filter the portfolio items, not take me to another page.

Thanks

Hey sarahakers,

Unfortunately not as of now, but i’ve noted the idea for the wishlist. Currently it would require custom javascript development

Cheers

Thanks for the info :)

You’re welcome sarahakers :)

Hi, I’d like column links to open in new windows. I see you had a few requests – Any chance this will be released soon? If not, is there a work around please.

Thanks

Hey tricks28, that option is disabled now if the user is on WP 4.3+ wince there’s a core option via the customizer

okay – thank you. Found it. p.s. some nice updates on the beta!! keep up the great work.

Thanks tricks28 :)

Hello guys, I’ve a ticket open (#1586177) but we cannot find a solution to the issue. Basically when I go in fullscreen with a slider (third-party) the content of the rows below it overlap the slider itself. I believe it isn’t a problem of the plugin as it has to do with the z-index and/or general content pulled from the theme. I’d be glad if we can find a fix for this together, as it’s part of the real last details of my website :) If you need any further detail let me know!

Thanks in advance guys!

Hey mircofragomena!

I responded earlier today in regards :)

Cheers

Hi there,

is there any way to get a transparent header ONLY at the front page? (On the other pages there are Nectar Sliders, too!)

Thx in Advance

Hey dhotzy,

Yes – you can use the “Page Header Settings” metabox for this – there are options for “Force Transparency On Navigation” and “Disable Transparency From Navigation”

Cheers

​Hello,

I am wondering is there any solution to replace portfolio thumb (featured image) with slideshow of images (slider)​?

I have tested some additional plugins, but none of them worked with Salient theme.

Thanks!

Hey mucho_mano!

The portfolio uses “wp_get_attachment_image_src” in order to set the srcset for each image manually. It’s the most practical way to ensure the best image size gets used for the dynamic column structure of the portfolio

Cheers

Hi again, as far as I know WordPress has added the support for srcset since a previous version, it’s no longer needed to set the srcset manually. In this case could you give me please some hints how to edit your theme in order to get the plugin Multiple Featured Images for Visual Composer (which uses standard WP functions) to works? Thanks!

Hey mucho_mano, the srcset for the portfolio is a little different since the only sizes that can be in it vary depending on the masonry settings and the column selection – the portfolio element is also a specific item of Salient, it’s not apart of the raw WPbakery page builder – the only way to use a different WP method of getting the image would be to edit the nectar/tinymce/shortcode-processing.php file at the “nectar_portfolio_processing” functio ln

I ran into some strange behaviour, the search function shows results, when using the Salient WPBakery Page Builder, I have bought the WPBakery Page Builder, when I activate it, the search search shows no results, all articles are hidden

Hey diver66,

Could you please share the URL in regards so I can take a look?

Thanks

Hi there, long time user and fan of your theme! I had a question regarding the sitemap. I’m using Salient with the Yoast SEO plugin but keep getting the 404 page when I try to navigate to the sitemap URL. I’ve tried resetting the permalinks and disabling/re-enabling the Yoast sitemap option but no luck. Please help.

Hey suraendher,

please reach out in regards via the contact form on my author page so I can provide you a copy of the beta which should resolve that https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Cheers

Hi there, I sent a mail via the author page but didn’t hear back, not sure if you missed it? Will send you another mail just in case. Thanks!

Hey suraendher, sorry about that! I just located it and sent it out :)

It would be great if you have a demo for an Athlete Profile. Showing achievements, win, losses, competitions, sponsors, space for donations, bio, etc, results in a timeline, etc.

Hey maurinoloureiro,

Thanks for the request :)
