Hi there! I`ve got one problem thats drives me crazy: On the site https://ferienhaus-kruen.de/ at the mobile version there is always a space rigth before the first row where the content begins. If I set the first row to full width content the space above the content is away but on the darkside the row looks shitty afterwards. is there a way to fix this in a better way or do i have to adjust the full with content? cheers to your awesomeness dovatorian
Hey dovatorian!
That should go away if you switch to the “Material” theme skin in the Salient options panel > general settings tab
Cheers
Infinite spinner issue on woocommerce checkout seems to be the problem only with Salient. Changing theme fixed the issue. Every plugin is updated including salient theme but sadly you guys failed at very critical timing.
?wc-ajax=checkout 405 (Not Allowed)
Even more sad part is.. its a pain to migrate away from Salient since visual composer is full of custom code in your theme..
Hey AzcorpEntertainment, there’s currently no known issue with Salient and WooCommerce like that – we’re using the latest versions here: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-business/shop/ Please share your URL in regards so I can take a look
Hi How can I hide the excerpt & author from blog posts on landing pages? for example on the dark blog landing page?
Hey nkycldn, add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel:
.nectar-recent-posts-single_featured .grav-wrap .text span,
.nectar-recent-posts-single_featured .grav-wrap img,
.nectar-recent-posts-single_featured .recent-post-container .excerpt { display: none; }
Cheers
Hi, this doesn’t seem to fix the problem..This is what I’m trying to hide;
https://imgur.com/a/OUR2enPHey nkycldn, that’s what the snippet is targeting – can you share the URL where you’ve added the CSS so I can see why it’s not taking?
Thanks
Hey, I had a caching issue, the code you provided does work. Thanks allot!.
Also, I would like to know if its possible to have a transparent button and remove the metadata from posts like in the screenshots below;
https://imgur.com/a/IYBxR9G https://imgur.com/a/Mkbv1GZHey nkycldn,
add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel:
html body .nectar-recent-posts-single_featured .nectar-button {
background-color: transparent!important;
border: 2px solid #fff!important;
}
#single-below-header { display: none; }
Cheers
Thank you so much! this has managed to fix the hiding metadata on posts however on the button I have a border with the color still filled?
https://imgur.com/a/d7dvxIKYou’re welcome nkycldn 
add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel:
html body .nectar-recent-posts-single_featured .nectar-button[data-color-override="false"].regular-button {
background-color: transparent!important;
}
Cheers
Thank you so much! finally are we able to have social media icons only in the footer instead of having a circular border?
Hey nkycldn,
add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel:
body #footer-outer[data-cols="1"] #copyright li a i:after { display: none; }
Cheers
Hi! Love the theme. I want the “band” theme for my site. I tried to upload the demo but it says some of the files are already there and in other places it says “link expired.” Can you help? My site is c3yth.com. Thanks!
actually, i figured out how to add the demo but its all code. do you have VC avaiable?
Hey brittanysharp22, that’s great to hear! To install required/recommended plugins, head to the Appearance > install plugins section of your admin panel. Once you’ve installed the plugin(s), don’t forget to activate them as well
New user to your theme. Why is it that every row that i am creating comes out as a full screen row with all of the content positioned to the middle of the row? Please tell me that there’s an easy way to shut this off. I’ve scoured the options panel, and could not find a solution. Thank you in advance for your assistance with this issue.
Hey seamusdrumz,
That should not be the case by default – are you sure that the “Page Full Screen Rows” option is not active? http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/page-metaboxes/#fullscreenrows
Cheers
Please could you confirm me the mediaqueries breakpoints used by default in the Salient theme? Cheers. Eric
Hey Eric,
> 1300px = desktop 1000px - 1300px = Small desktop 690 - 1000px = tablet < 690px = mobile
Cheers
Just a quick question about shortcode length. So I imported the Corporate template. If I open my site’s /about/ page, and then theme nectar’s http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-corporate/about/ page, they’re fairly similar. Not identical, but pretty much. If I click view source for both of them and then scroll down, the block of shortcode in the source code on my website is literally 8 times longer than the block of shortcode on themenectar.com. I counted the lines of shortcode and there are 827 lines on my page and 111 on themenectar’s page. I don’t have any other plugins installed, I didn’t change anything on the page. Why is this, and what can I do about it?
So I looked a little more, it looks like it’s the same amount of shortcodes even on a totally blank page. I tried deleting elements I won’t be using in the style.css file, but all the shortcodes are still there. So my updates question is: How can I trim the amount of shortcodes in the source? I know I won’t be using a number of elements, so for example, every single woocommerce shortcode is a waste of space for me personally. What files do I need to edit to have them not load with every single page?
Hey dlapz1001,
There are no shortcodes added onto a page by default – are you referring to internal css? If so, all you need to do to move that into an external file is enable the option in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab “Move Dynamic/Custom CSS Into External Stylesheet”
Cheers
Yes, shortcode was a misspeak, thank you for understanding me haha. And that worked! Thank you so much.
Hey dlapz1001, glad I could help 
How can we get the off canvas effect shown in blog dark demo? No reference in instructions.
Hey pinkgerbil,
That’s the regular “Slide out from right” Off Canvas Menu style, but with the theme skin set to “Material” in the Salient options panel > general settings tab
Cheers
请问购买之后,能有中文语言支持不?
Hey feelcool999,
Salient provides a .po file which can be used to translation, however we don’t offer an already translated Chinese version
Can you give me an idea on why my homepage video works sometimes but other times it’s blank? http://themovingarchitects.org/
Hey muntzdesigns,
Please upgrade your version of Salient to the current release (8.5.6) to get the fix for this: http://themenectar.com/changelogs/salient.html
Cheers
Hi, where can I change the text that appears in the picture? the part I want to change: http://prntscr.com/jv5ftq the part I want to change: http://prntscr.com/jv5g7m
I want to add a category to the bottom. How Can I add it? the part I want to add: http://prntscr.com/jvjwk9
Hey hiGwindor,
I can’t seem to open those screenshots – can you kindly try uploading/linking them again?
Cheers
I want to add a category to the bottom. How Can I add it? the part I want to add: https://imgur.com/lvG0Xwv what do I want to see in this section: Privacy Policy – Contact Us – About Us – Terms
Hey hiGwindor,
That would require modding to the footer.php file as of now – you could move the file into a child theme in order to keep the modification present after future updates as well
Thanks
Hi, have just extended support but its still not recognising my purchase code so I cant leave a question?
Hey dsamwell, have if you’re still facing that issue have you tried to use a different email address to force the new key to be used?
Hey, guys. I love all of the recent updates to Salient! It’s such a dominant theme. I wanted to add a request for a possible future update. The request is for a “Parallax Item Holder” so text, image, button, etc. can be parallaxed at different rates to add a fluid floating effect. Anyway, I love the theme! Keep up the fantastic work!
Hey Mudutu,
Thanks for the request!
Cheers
Is there a way to include product variations in the search results not just the main products?
Also a sidebar appears on the search results page how do I remove/edit this? Thank you
Hey MarcGarner,
1. This would require modding to the search.php file as of now
2. add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel:
.search-results .span_9 {
width: 100%;
margin-right: 0;
}
.search-results .span_2 {
display: none;
}
Cheers
Thanks, This CSS seems to have removed the sidebar but the content that was in the sidebar is now just being displayed below the search results.
Showing “latest” and “related” products
I have found this to be the solution:
<#woocommerce_products-12.widget.woocommerce.widget_products { display: none !important; }>
<#woocommerce_products-11.widget.woocommerce.widget_products { display: none !important; }>
Thank you for all your help, great them and exceptional support.
You’re welcome MarcGarner, glad to hear you’ve sorted it 
Hi, We are very interested in purchasing your theme. We have a quick question re. the “Morphing Outline” feature. Do you have additional shapes too (hexagons/triangles etc.)? Thanks
Hey channelgraphic, as of now the morphing outline can only handle from circle to square
Hi there! Would I be able to do ecommerce with this template?? Thanks for your time and support
Hey rasheedny! Salient supports WooCommerce out of the box
https://woocommerce.com/
how do I switch off top header in smartphone view
Hey gustav939,
add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel:
@media only screen and (max-width: 1000px) {
html #header-outer, html #header-space {
display: none!important;
}
}
Cheers
This deletes the menu section and not the top header where I inserted the address: http://therapyinaction.co.za/dev/
never-mind, I fixed it with; #header-secondary-outer
Also, why does the header imge not scale properly on mobile devices: http://therapyinaction.co.za/dev/about-us/ ??
Hey gustav939, are you trying to make the page header image smaller on mobile devices? If so, add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel:
@media only screen and (max-width: 690px) {
#page-header-bg[data-parallax="1"]:not(.out-of-sight) {
height: 175px!important;
}
#page-header-bg .row { top: 0!important; }
}
You dont understand. The header image DOES NOT SCALE ON MOBILE DEVICES!!!. I.e. its not responsive and you said your theme is 100% responsive! Look here and see if the top image scales correctly: http://therapyinaction.co.za/dev/about-us/ – it does not! It cuts off some of the people on left and right of image. This is not responsive!!
Hey gustav939, the page header height does indeed reduce on mobile devices, with your settings it’s shrinking from 680px on desktop to 272px on mobile – the snippet I provided was to reduce it a little further to avoid the image from clipping at all. It appears the snippet is currently not active on your URL though – did you enter it into the css box?
I have installed it, and yes it displays correctly on a tablet and smartphone but not on a laptop size. And why do I need to insert css code on a template that you claim to be 100% responsive?
Hey gustav939, the page header uses the supplied image as a background image – it’s not designed to ensure 0 clipping as shown throughout the demos. If you’re trying to use an image that you need to show without clipping at all times, that’s possible in many other ways such as regular WPBakery full width section rows using % values for the top/bottom padding or by using the Nectar Slider element set to “flexible height” or by using a WPBakery image element in a full width content row. If you need assistance setting any of those up, please open a ticket in regards https://themenectar.ticksy.com
Is it possible too loop the Linea icons?
Hey Mathiasarlund, unfortunately as of now this would require a modification to the theme itself – however we’ve noted the idea for the wishlist
Cheers
Hello,
I have been using your theme for more than 4 years now and i’m still not able to translate it correctly with loco translate. Do you have a reliable documentation for this?
This one is not up to date anymore : https://themenectar.ticksy.com/article/5912/I’ve done like you’ve said in previous comments: “In Loco Translate > Themes > Salient > Advanced you can set the path to the .pot file. For the Template file field use “lang/nectar_salient_strings.pot” – you can then generate a new .po based on the translations you do”
+ everything is green in file info.
But translation doesn’t appear.
I feel like the process changes with every new version. Your theme is absolutely amazing, this is the only issue i’ve been struggling with for years now.
Thank you for your help! Best,
Hey Arkanite,
Are there specific strings you’re unable to translate or are none of your translations taking when using loco translate? There’s no special instructions needed for locotranslate other than the one point you mentioned of ensuring the nectar_salient_strings.pot is used
Cheers
None of them work unfortunately :s I have the list of strings translated in Loco but changes don’t appear on front-end.
But i have a child theme and it looks like it is misconfigured i got the message: “Warning: Child theme declares the same Text Domain as the parent theme”
Is there a specific action to take when using a child theme?
Thank you very much!
Hey Arkanite, could you kindly allow me to see what you have in your child theme functions.php so I can assist?
Okay i’ve created a ticket on Themenectar support for this, thank you!
Ticket number is : 1613097
