Hi,
Please can I get access to the beta version of salient, I have submitted a request on your profile 3 x. Thanks
Hey rmgibbons01,
Sorry about that – I sent it over earlier today
Cheers
Tahir- messaging here as requested…
Why can’t we add toggles (and other items) to inner rows? WP bakery says it’s possible as standard:

https://prnt.sc/jsdh79So why is this removed from Salient’s version? It’s very limiting to the design. Please advise how we can place toggle into inner row in Salient version of pagebuilder?
Thank you!
Hey ravenswoodmedia,
The toggle element in Salient is treated as a container element (like the tabbed section) and thus not allowed inside of another nested container element – I just checked the raw current version of WPbakery page builder to verify their “accordion” and “tabs” elements also can’t be placed in an inner row – the single toggle element in the screenshot is likely a different non container based element
Toggle Panels it’s called. https://prnt.sc/jtkr3f That’s the only “Toggle” type item that can be added.
Is there any way to get these to sit inside a nested container element? We’ve spent 3 days data entry creating hundreds of Toggle Panels. Only to find they’re a renamed version of something else and the standard “Toggles” don’t exist! Thank you.
Hey ravenswoodmedia, the “Toggle Panels” element in Salient is the equivalent of the Accordion element in the raw WPBakery builder – there’s no easy way to drag and drop them into an inner row due to the page builder nested container restriction – however, if you go into the classic editor mode you should still be able to copy/paste the toggle element into an inner column within an inner row
I see. So you took an element that couldn’t be nested, “Accordion”, and renamed it to an element in the original version of the plugin you’ve modified which should normally be able to be nested, “Toggle”. Great.
Copy pasting not an option (tried it, didn’t work, also extremely user-unfriendly and totally against the concept of a drag-drop editor).
Any hope for this?
The crazy thing is, we can make a nested column, insert a text box, and then within that text box add a “Nectar Shortcode” “Toggle”. Which functions the same on the front end but is an absolute ballache admin-side, and is shortcode based at editor level, rather than drag/drop. So how can this toggle be nested but not the other, identical toggle item?
“Toggle Panels” element… can’t be nested
https://prnt.sc/ju1uif“Toggle Panels” element…Can be nested
https://prnt.sc/ju1uxvDoesn’t really make any sense. Thanks in advance.
Hey ravenswoodmedia, Salient existed for 2 years before WPBakery was integrated – when the integration occurred the already existing toggle panel element became the most closely related element in the page builder i.e. the accordion. It’s WPBakerys own rules that container elements can not be nested, that’s not something we added in. As soon as you declare an element as a container element, WPBakery will prevent it from being nested in an inner row. By not using the WPBakery element and opting for the legacy shortcode that restriction is not longer in place because you’re not within their drag/drop UI
Hi, it certainly doesn’t seem that way according to WPBakery:
https://codecanyon.net/item/visual-composer-page-builder-for-wordpress/242431/comments?page=942&filter=all#comment_19739143“Hello, The plugin also supports element such as accordion and tab to be added via inner row: https://prnt.sc/jur2cq “
Hey ravenswoodmedia, just tested the current version of the raw plugin and can verify that there is no way to drag an “Accordion” element or a “Tabs” element into an inner row (vc_row_inner). Upon searching their own comment section as well, this has been mentioned in the past:
https://imgur.com/a/6YjyRoUHow does one make the main content area not scrollable when the side menu is open, ive tried overflow-y:hidden, and added some javascript which also didnt work/
What did work was using height: 95vh;, however, if you scroll down and then open the menu, the page shoots back up to the top
Code i added (obviously the .noscroll class being (now changed to overflow-y:hidden !important;)
OCM_dropdown_function();
//click triggered
$('body').on('click','.slide-out-widget-area-toggle:not(.std-menu) a.closed:not(.animating)',function(){
if(animating == 'true' || $('.slide-out-from-right-hover').length > 0) return false;
var $that = $(this);
$('#header-outer').removeClass('no-transition');
//Hide logo when slides out
$('#logo').hide();
$('body').addClass('noscroll') //added this to stop scroll
and
$('body').on('click','.slide-out-widget-area-toggle:not(.std-menu) a.open:not(.animating), #slide-out-widget-area .slide_out_area_close, > .slide_out_area_close, #slide-out-widget-area-bg.slide-out-from-right, .material-ocm-open #ajax-content-wrap',function(e){
//Show logo once slides back into place
$('#logo').show();
$('body').removeClass('noscroll') // added here to remove class when side menu closes
again i sorted it out, hahaha sorry, HOWEVER, still trying to move the “X” to a new location and making it stick to the top of menu instead of dissapearing when people scroll
lol, just sorted this one out, ignore this whole thing
Hey MatthewMurdoch, glad to hear you’ve sorted it 
Presale question – I am interested to use Full Width Masonry, but need multiple featured images for each portfolio’s project. So, I’m planing to use Ultimate Post Thumbnails plugin and I was wondering if the thumbnails in your portfolio are generated via WordPress thumbnail functions – the_post_thumbnail, get_the_post_thumbnail, or created by Visual Composer.
Thanks!
Hye mucho_mano,
The portfolio uses “wp_get_attachment_image_src” in order to set the srcset for each image manually.
Hi, Place Order button is enabled even “Agreed to Terms & Condition” is unchecked, how to fix this?
Hey astutestudio, there should be a notice when attempting to place the order with that unchecked: “Please read and accept the terms and conditions to proceed with your order.” – if you’re not seeing that could you please share your URL in regards so I can take a look?
Thanks
Thanks i got it, but when i click on Terms & Conditions its not opening new tab, it opens as dropdown with all the code and text, how to fix it?
Hey astutestudio,
Please share your URL in regards so I can take a look – in WooCommerce 3.1+ the terms now open on the same page by default (not a Salient modification) https://woocommerce.com/2017/06/3-1-release-product-importer-shipping-service/#attachment_2395223
I want to send you link in private message, how? its opening popup is ok but showing text with raw html, i need to fix this.
Hey astutestudio,
By default the new terms inline display won’t parse shortcodes if that’s what you’re experiencing: https://arcainteractive.com/blog/shortcodes-woocommerce-terms-conditions/ if it’s something else, please reach out in regards via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Hi, and thanks for the link, you got it right this is the error but unfortunately its not working in woocommerce 3.4.2 its for older version, do you have any other solution?
Hey astutestudio,
I don’t currently have a workaround for this – but if you ask on the WooCommerce forums, i’m sure other users have encountered this and have discussed possible workarounds
Cheers
Hey trixrahbit,
The CSS needed to remove that is:
body.single .heading-title[data-header-style="default_minimal"] #single-below-header span, body.single #single-below-header { display: none!important; }
Cheers
I should be more specific sorry haha I just want to remove No Comments which css file controls this? I assume its near the code above.
Hey trixrahbit, use this instead
.meta-comment-count { display: none!important; }
Hi! Another query for you. I’m attempting to change the social icons in the header. I’ve managed to change the original icon for dribbble with a user icon through the functions.php, but on hover the icon disappears (on chrome), or changes back to a hover version of the dribbble icon.
Can’t for the life of me figure out where to find how to change this. Hoping you can help!
Hey amitzala!
Can you kindly share your URL in regards so I can take a look to assist?
Cheers
Hi there
Unfortunately it’s a site in development, password protected so I can’t give you the URL.
However I can show you a video of it if that helps?
http://sendvid.com/igaqfbe1Hey amitzala,
add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel and replace the content with your new user reference:
#header-outer #social-in-menu .fa-dribbble:after, .material #slide-out-widget-area.slide-out-from-right .fa-dribbble:after {
content: "\f27d"!important;
}
Cheers
On youtube videos it now shows the number of views ontop of the video. Is there a way to remove that?
Also, I added a video on the home page of DominateMyGame.com and it shows when I preview the page, but it does not show up when I go to the URL after updated the page. I have tried different browsers and private windows but still no luck.
Hey kukennedy,
1. Can you share a screenshot of what views you’re referring to? Salient doesn’t add any additional data about Youtube embeds by default
2. Are you referring to Background video or the video lightbox element? I just checked on Chrome/Firefox on my end and have been able to see both appearing normally so far
Hi – I’m looking to make my WooCommerce Store 5 columns across instead of 4. And is there a way to make the product thumbs a little smaller? thanks!!

Hello, would you have any way to change the post comments with the Related Posts?
Hey rolldigo,
Are you referring to the positioning of those two elements within the flow of the post template?
I’m referring to the comments bar at the bottom of blog posts
this one https://prnt.sc/jsnmw4Hey rolldigo, in order to swap the position of those two would require editing of the single.php file
Can you help me with this ?
nevermind, i found a way to do it
Thanks for the support
Hey rolldigo, I’m glad to hear you found a solution
Hey there, is there a posibility to restrict the width only for the tab reviews and customize the h2, h3 only for this section?

Why am I getting this problem?
Deprecated : The each() function is deprecated. This message will be suppressed on further calls in …/wp-content/plugins/js_composer_salient/include/classes/core/class-vc-mapper.php on line 186?
When I activate the generic Wordpress Twenty Fifteen theme it works fine. I have the latest update installed for the Salient theme and all of my plugins, and it still won’t go away
Hey Velosaraptor, WPBakery is aware of that issue – it should only occur when using PHP 7.2+ in combination with debug mode on

Hey,
Can anyone tell me why my portfolio items are repeating on my portfolio? And also why they don’t sort when I select a category?
Thanks Sarah
Hey Sarah,
Could you please share your URL in regards so I can see your setup?
Thanks
Hi, I worked out that I had my portfolio page both set to “portfolio” and had a portfolio element. I set my page to the default template and that fixed the issue.
Hey sarahakers,
Glad to hear
Hey Wooden,
You can use custom CSS to manipulate the preloader – the material style is all CSS based.
Cheers
THX, and HTML structure?
Hey Wooden,
That would require the use of a child theme to modify the markup
Cheers
THX.
You’re welcome Wooden
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

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

Hi, thanks for getting back. I’ve re-produced a similar portfolio page for testing. Cheers! http://54.246.200.209/portfolio/test-portfolio/
Hey justconcepts,
Thanks for sharing that – are you’re using the default WordPress video shortcode for your video or the video metabox specific to the portfolio?
Cheers
Hi, Thanks for the reply. I’m using the one under the video meta box. See below, appreciate the help. Thanks. https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/testsal/sal-test-snap.png
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

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,
