Hey brianfreeman, we’re still beta testing to ensure it goes well – if you’d like the current beta please feel free to send and email in regards using the contact form on my author page
Just some feedback for you guys. Would love to see some more advanced header designs/customization (custom icons, animations) – Perfect example – https://stripe.com/ Also more animated header item choices – the (animated underline is nice but it gets old when your using the theme on multiple sites).
Love the theme. Keep up the great work. This is definitely my favorite wordpress theme on the market and I’ve purchased all of the top themes on themeforest.
Hey Egaffin,
Thanks for the requests! The next update is indeed adding more header options
Cheers
Hi there – I purchased the theme a while ago, and I’m wondering if it’s possible to integrate different aspects of different themes in Salient Studio, specifically the sticky header of http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-blog-magazine/ with the old blog http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-blog/ or the old school creative themes http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-frostwave/ . Can you mix and match every feature from every template, or just post templates from different themes?
Hey Wpro9,
In recent versions of Salient, the blog & recent post elements got makeovers and you can now build complex layouts such as the the magazine one you’ve linked by reusing the elements multiple times on the same page will different settings. So yes, you can mix the “Meta overlaid” masonry style with other blog elements on the same page
Cheers
Hi guys, I am getting this error in console on the home page for some weird reason: Uncaught ReferenceError: thickboxL10n is not defined
at thickbox.js?ver=3.1-20121105:9 . if ( typeof tb_pathToImage != ‘string’ ) {
var tb_pathToImage = thickboxL10n.loadingAnimation;
}
Please could you help me sort it
Hey anthonysinclair,
Could you kindly share your URL in regards so I can take a look?
Thanks
Hey anthonysinclair,
Thanks for sharing – Salient doesn’t enqueue that script by default on the frontend – it’s an admin script that gets used on certain pages with upload fields. Could you quickly verify that one of the other third party plugins you have active is not causing the issue?
Cheers
Hi. I bought the theme a few days ago, it’s not possible to use the Live visual composser? To edit landing elements without having to give ‘preview’ all the time.
The Visual Composer plugin that comes by default in the theme does not let me edit in this way.
Regards
Hey joselab,
The frontend editor in WPBakery is disabled currently but will be available soon – if that was a key feature you were counting on you can always get a refund if desired
Cheers
Ouh no no, I love this theme but the frontend editor would be really helpful for me. Do you know when this will be available (aprox.)? Cheers
Hey joselab, it’s in alpha testing right now – so we could provide you with a copy, but we don’t have an exact release target at the moment
Ok perfect. It would be really helpful for me to be able to try the alpha version. How could I get it? Do you need my e-mail?
Hey joselab, please reach out in regards via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Hi, the translation of my button “View Larger” (portfolio) does not work. Where can I find the button in the code? template-portfolio.php? Regards
Hey Fabsy,
the string View Larger should indeed be available in the .po file – the template-portfolio.php is only used when using the portfolio page template, if you’re using the page builder to add your portfolio, the file is nectar/tinymce/shortcode-processing.php If you’d like us to take a look at your translation setup, please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so we can take a further look into this https://themenectar.ticksy.com

Hi Team, I am trying to select multiple images from gallery in image gallery element of VC, but I am not able to add more than 7 images in the element. Request you to give us solution on this ASAP and let me know if you require any details like ‘wordpress login’ or ‘cpanel details’
Hey Tejasrathod,
There is no restriction of the number of images that can use used in that element by default, could you please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so we can take a further look into this? https://themenectar.ticksy.com

Is there any way to add a border-radius to the parallax portfolio blocks on http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-corporate/? I’ve tried every CSS selector I can see and nothing rounds the edges.
Hey dlapz1001,
add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel:
.portfolio-items .parallaxImg-rendered-layer {
border-radius: 10px;
}
Cheers
That worked! Thank you so much.
You’re welcome dlapz1001
Hi! I haven’t checked in for a while and just wondering about 2 things: 1) is it possible to have the portfolio featured image expand to a lightbox? (I have a lot of people clicking on it) and 2) is it now possible to have clickable portfolio categories and attributes (like blog post tags and categories)?
Thanks!!
Hey skiffie,
1. Are you referring to the featured image on the single project page or to have a lightbox from the portfolio grid when clicking on an item?
2. Unfortunately the only sortable feature in the Portfolio relates to the categories assigned – you can’t sort by attributes
Cheers
Hi thanks for the reply!
1. Featured image on single project page – it would be great to have this in a lightbox
2. Sorry I think small confusion! I don’t need sorting by categories, just listing + category/attribute pages. I.e. I think I had asked you a while back if it would be possible to add both categories and attributes display to the single project page and to make them clickable so you can view all projects with the same category/attribute right from the single project page (just like blog post categories and tags). Right now I have to enter them all in manually. you had said it might be possible – just wondering if it there was any update!
Thanks again!
Hey skiffie,
1. Right now one way you could achieve that would be to use the option to “Hide Featured Image/Video on Single Project Page” and then insert a regular image element through the page builder that has the lightbox option on
2. No worries – unfortunately there hasn’t been new development regarding the attributes in a bit
Cheers
Hey, thanks. For 1) it would require basically recoding the page since right now the portfolio featured image displays things perfectly, so I’d prefer not to do that – plus using page builder would also mean using the ‘extra content’ box and not the main content box which would be difficult for SEO!... so would appreciate if this could be added as a feature at some point! Thanks
Hey skiffie, I’ve noted the idea on the wishlist – however please note that the extra content box is not looked at different from an SEO standpoint. In earlier versions it was simply overlooked in the Yoast tool because that plugin skips custom metaboxes by default. In the current of the WPBakery page builder (5.4.7) Yoast should be checking that metabox now
Cheers
Ok great good to know thank you! But it would still require me to recode every page, which is a real drag Thanks again though.
Hi, sorry for double post. ok yoast seems to be picking up the extra content box only if it’s in page builder mode – in plaintext mode it still doesn’t detect anything. this is ok for my needs for now, but just fyi thanks.
Hey skiffie, thanks for mentioning
Do you do customizations for extra cost? Please email me aaronjoseph@outlook.com
Hey aarontjoseph94, unfortunately we’re not personally available for freelance work but you could always check out Envato Studio for freelance gigs

Using Frostwave style and I want Standard Blog with Sidebar. The imported demo page shows a masonry blog. I tried generating a new blog shortcode, got this:
[nectar_blog enable_pagination="true" layout="std-blog-sidebar" pagination_type="default" category="all" posts_per_page="20"]
This produces a masonry blog.
Did you break the standard blog shortcode with the latest version? Can’t seem to get standard blog with sidebar no matter what shortcode I use.
The standard blog no sidebar does work, but adding sidebar turns it into masonry display.
Please resolve.
Update – I found there are blog settings in the theme options that will over-ride the shortcodes. Is this intended?
Hey VariousArtists,
If you use the Blog element inside of the page builder rather than the shortcode from the old shortcode generator, you should be able to choose any style you want regardless of the theme options setting
Then it’s not working as intended. The setting in theme options overrides the shortcode for the shortcode in my initial comment.
Hey VariousArtists, I just tested the shortcode you pasted in above and am actually unable to replicate the theme options overriding it. The shortcode renders a standard blog w/ sidebar regardless of what the theme options are set to for the archive pages – Could you please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so we can take a further look into this? https://themenectar.ticksy.com

Hello. I am trying to remove ´related products´ from the woocommerce single product page. Earlier you gave the suggestion to add custom CSS code. The problem is that the page still loads the code, it just does not show.
This causes some SEO issues as H2 headers are loaded for no apparent reason.
I have tried the code below but it does not work. Do you use a custom function for the related products? Any suggestion how I can solve this?
/** * Remove related products output */ remove_action( ‘woocommerce_after_single_product_summary’, ‘woocommerce_output_related_products’, 20 );
Earlier css code: .woocommerce .products.related { display: none!important; }
Hey dzineee, in your child theme make sure you’re hooking that into the init action like so:
add_action( ‘init’, ‘remove_theme_action’); function remove_theme_action() { remove_action( ‘woocommerce_after_single_product_summary’, ‘woocommerce_output_related_products’, 20); }
Cheers
Hi there, thank you for your quick reply. Unfortunately that also does not work. See for example https://www.goedeshampoo.nl/product/revita-shampoo/.
That initial code came from the WooThemes website:https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/remove-related-posts-output/
They both do not work Hopefully you can help.
Hey dzineee,
I tested the snippet above successfully in a child theme – could you please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so we can take a further look into this? https://themenectar.ticksy.com

Hello. I am sorry we cannot provide access to our live environment. Could you have a look at the provided link and check what you see? Is this what you would expect? As the source code still shows the code.
Hey,
For the “Left aligned menu” option, I note that we can’t have the single, thin underline effect on menu item hover, rather a color strip reveal like block that covers the whole word when hovered over.
e.g. http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-business/
Is there some simple CSS we can insert that would give the same simple single line underneath the word which the top aligned menu items have under the ‘Material’ design option?
Or alternatively, have the same color reveal text effect that you have with the mobile menu hover.
Also, the new Nectar slider bullets are very cool, but there’s a visual conflict with them and the arrow navigation when placed on the left or right. Not sure if there’s an easy fix to this that doesn’t impact usability of either
Thanks!
Hey ND81,
add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel:
html body[data-header-format="left-header"] #header-outer[data-lhe="animated_underline"] header#top nav >ul >li:not([class*="button_"]) >a >span:after {
height: 2px;
top: 100%;
}
html body[data-header-format="left-header"] #header-outer[data-lhe="animated_underline"] header#top nav >ul >li:not([class*="button_"]) >a:hover,
html body[data-header-format="left-header"] #header-outer[data-lhe="animated_underline"] header#top nav >ul >li:not([class*="button_"]).open-submenu >a,
html body[data-header-format="left-header"] #header-outer[data-lhe="animated_underline"] header#top nav >ul >li:not([class*="button_"]).current_page_item >a,
html body[data-header-format="left-header"] #header-outer[data-lhe="animated_underline"] header#top nav >ul >li:not([class*="button_"]).current-menu-item >a,
html body[data-header-format="left-header"] #header-outer[data-lhe="animated_underline"] header#top nav >ul >li:not([class*="button_"]).current-menu-ancestor >a {
color: #000!important;

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
