I am using wp-cost-estimation-payment-forms together with this theme. I have asked support for the EP form regarding the below problem:

“Hello team, I am having hard time to adjust the label font size on my forms. The default size of the labels are too small, so i want it bigger. I manage to increase the label font size for all my text_field which allows me to select just the label and not the textfield itself from form designer->Style->Text—>Font Size. but it does not allow me to do the same for any text_area on my form, when i try to select just the label of the textarea, it selects the whole block which is not what i want to do. My goal is to only increase the font size of all the labels on my form to 20 because default size 15 is too small. Please help which how to accomplish that. Thanks.”

- They have asked me to add this code: Here is the css rule to paste in the “Custom CSS” option of your form to do that: #estimation_popup .form-group>label {font-size:20px !important;} I added the code but it did not work as expected. - Then they asked me to do the following: Thank you. Please can you disable the option “Minimal form” of the theme ? (Salient options panel > General settings) . It should fix this conflict . Sorry, I must leave for now (it is the evening here), but I will check your reply tomorrow ASAP !

i like the feel the minimal option add to my design andI am willing to leave it activated. So i don’t want to disable it.

- Now they are asking me to do as follow with you guys: In this case you need to ask the theme author to limit the use of the minimal form library to some specific pages, because it creates several conflicts when it is applied to the cost form .

Could you please assist on that. Here is my url: http://dab36006.ngrok.io/project-discovery-analysis/

Thanks.

Hey carlandenet, Could you please open a ticket in regards so we can take a further look into this? https://themenectar.ticksy.com

Cheers

Hi, Ticket is opened. TICKET #1624172

I see sub menu option on theme demo under header, is there a way to define footer menu (Horizontal menu version like this example image: https://ibb.co/ndDHZo around copyright bar and one under footer widget centre above copyright section: https://ibb.co/dLE7Zo )

Hey sniro,

We’re adding the option to assign a widget to that location in the next release – If you’d like a copy of the beta, please reach out in regards via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Cheers

Hi there. I have my website in the works for some time now because I don’t know how to structure the information in the best way possible. I think I only need to tweak the portfolio a bit and it should be ready to launch. But for this I need your help, if you are so kind.

I am looking to add the View Larger / More Details on hover with a Mansonary Portfolio Style. I use Fullwidth – Meta on hover w/ zoom + entire thumb link – 3px Mansonary, and want to give my readers the option to only view the photos, or to read more about the project.

So, my questions are: 1. Is there a way to put the View Larger / More Details buttons on hover with my portfolio style of choice?

2. Is there a way to show the buttons only on select projects (the ones that I have more information to share)?

P.S. This really would be the last thing I need to get straight in order to have my portfolio live once and for all.

P.S.2. The theme you guys did is seriously awesome. I am thrilled that I went for it.

If you can answer, I would really appreciate your help!

Kind Regards, Catalin

Hey ktakytzu, you’d have to get a little creative for this – first ensure you’re using the fancybox3 lightbox option in the Salient options panel > general settings > functionality tab. Then, every button you want to be in a grouped lightbox you’d need to use raw HTML for the button in order to modify the attribute accordingly. (Add this into the text tab on the editor)

<a class="nectar-button medium accent-color regular-button" href="IMAGE_SOURCE" data-color-override="false" data-hover-color-override="false" data-hover-text-color-override="#fff" data-fancybox="group_100"><span>view larger</span></a>

As long as all of the buttons have the same group for the “data-fancybox” attribute, they will be linked when any are opened

Cheers

Hey ThemeNectar! Huge thanks for your support. Your solution is really close to what I was looking for. You rock!

Cheers!

You’re very welcome ktakytzu :)

Hi there! Is there a way to make people on the site sortable by categories? Possible to have a sub-menu where you select something and then it only shows 5 of the employees, for example.

Like this site: https://itsahappymedium.com/about Current salient page: http://bravechurch.co/leadership-and-staff/

Hey twotonecreative,

The closest thing to that would be to simply use the tabbed element and place your grouping of team members within each relevant tab you create: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-promo/tabbed-section/

Cheers

Hi there, hope your having a nice day. Question… How can I export my entire site-theme to other wordpress account?

Hey rasheedny,

Please check out the docs in regards: https://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress there’s also a few plugins that can make the process easier if you’re uncomfortable exporting the database

Cheers

Hi Autors!

I’m trying to change ‘Next project’ (on single portfolio page) into ‘Volgend project’ (dutch for next project) bij copying a part (Portfolio single page controls) of the functions.php file into my child-theme functions.php file and replace ‘next’ by ‘volgend’, but then our site goes down.

I also tried to translate this with the loco translate plugin, but this doesn’t work either. Maybe because we’re working with sub-domains and different themes.

Then I’d also like to change ‘View Larger’ into ‘Vergroot’ in the portfolio gallery. Can I do this in a php file? And which one?

I know my support is ended, but maybe you can still help me? Thanks in advance!

Best regards, Eefke digibastards.nl

Sorry, I made a mistake…

2. I’d like to change view larger in the image gallery and not in the portfolio gallery. In which file can I find that view larger string?

Hey Queen_Eef,

1. 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

2. For the image gallery, you’d need to edit nectar/nectar-vc-addons/vc_templates/vc-gallery.php

Cheers

Hi….

1. Sorry my support is expired so I can’t.

2. I copied the file and the folders, but nothing changes. I really don’t get it. It would be great if you could take a look http://speeltuin.digibastards.nl/portfolio/alleen-vc/ but I also understand if you don’t because of the expired support…

Thanks!

Feature request / idea: it would be really nice if we could mix & match between having more that 1 footer column and also center the copyright area (as well has the social icons in the nice style with the circles round them). It would also be good to be able to include email/phone icons in the footer too :)

Hey paulfp, thanks for the request! :)

Hi! We really like your theme but we feel that VC is at the end of the game, are you evaluating the port to another page builder?

Hey salvatom,

We are not planning to move to another page builder just yet – but it’s possible we will add an additional option in the future :)

Cheers

Hi ThemeNectar! Any change to have the frontend builder on Salient?

Hey salvatom, yes – that’s in the process of being integrated :)

Hey again, Around a month ago I asked when the next update will be released, and you said “a couple of weeks”. Now I see it’s a little bit delayed, but since I paused my work I have to ask if you can re-estimate the release date.

Thanks again :)

Hey tovbar,

We don’t have a new demo page online just yet – but I can send you the changelog if you reach out :)

Cheers

I need some visual content, so I’ll try to hold my breath until the release. Thanks! :)

Sounds good tovbar :)

Hello ThemeNectar,

We are using the recent portfolio slider on a client homepage, can you give me any advise on how to get it to auto rotate / scroll?

We need the carousel to rotate without the need to clicking, and ideally pause on hover also.

Many thanks,

B

Hey icuk,

Unfortunately this would not be possible as of now without some custom javascript development, but i’ve noted the idea for the wishlist

Cheers

My load time is SLLLOWWWW. And this speed test indicates some of the reasons. I don’t the results are so poor, is there anything I can do to help myself out here? Thanks

Hey silverlithomes,

It looks like you have not yet minified the css/js assets and your caching could be improved: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/performance-optimization-guide/

Bonjour, Je suis interessée par votre theme mais j’ai quelques questions. 1/ le page builder de Saillant (salient visual composer) est en front end ou en back end? 2/ y a t il un sticky menu? 3/ je n’ai pas bien compris ce que comprend le prix de la license 60$. C’est pour un site avec les mises à jour en durée illimité . Merci par avance pour votre aide Cdt

Hey kaktus2,

1. Currently it’s backend

2. The top navigation bar can be sticky or static at the top, and there’s a secondary page submenu element within the page builder which can also be sticky. See example here: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-corporate/about/

3. You can use the theme on one domain and you have access to all future updates to the theme for that single price

Cheers

Hi, is there a simple way to remove the number and percent sign from the progress bars? I don’t want anything to show above the bar at all.

Thanks!

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


.nectar-progress-bar span strong { display: none; }

Cheers

Hi theme nectar, What parameters do I change to get my portfolio thumbnails to behave like the ones on this site http://bigbrickproductions.com They show text before they are on-hovered and then when hovered on different text against a black background with what appears to be a homemade button/icon. Thanks

Hey devotionrecording,

That user did custom development to one of the project styles, there’s none that are quite like that by default. It looks like the base style they started with was “Meta overlaid w/ zoom effect on hover alt”

Cheers

Hi ThemeNectar – Hope you’re well.

1. While searching for a solution in the comments section, I noticed another person is having an issue with a ’bug’ with sub-categories when they have the same name (comment by mircofragomena who opened a ticket #1617376).

When there are two different categories (e.g. Argentina, Brazil) AND they have sub-categories with the same name (e.g. Hotels, Experiences), those particular posts get mixed up and don’t appear on the right page, don’t appear at all, or the sub-category itself doesn’t appear in the filterable menu (when editing a post in the backend).

I was wondering if you were able to fix this or if it will be fixed in the next update?

2. Is it possible to remove the date and author of a post in it’s thumbnail for a specific blog element on a page (i.e. if there are two blog elements on a page, remove the date and author of every post that appears in blog element #1, but have the date and author appear on the thumbnail of the posts in blog element #2).

I’ve used .meta-category, .meta-author, .meta-comment-count, .avatar-post-info { display: none!important; } to remove these items in a single post, but that doesn’t affect the thumbnails of the posts in the row of specific blog element on the page builder.

For more context, I created a category for the specific posts I want to hide the date and author in post thumbnails in a certain blog element. Not sure if that simplifies things.

Thanks in advance for your time.

Hey Wpro9,

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


body.home .post-area.masonry.meta_overlaid article.masonry-blog-item.wide_tall .post-meta .date,
body.home .masonry.meta_overlaid article.post .post-header .meta-author { display: none; }

Cheers

Thank you very much! Super helpful :)

You’re very welcome :)

One of the best themes i ve ever purchased BUT i noticed a huge FAIL here. Header video has only one slot if you want to have the cool Roll box effect. You should mention that. I have an unhappy customer because of what he saw in your demo guys. The only solution is to “stitch” 3 videos and edit captions. NOT HAPPY.

Hey pantnick, I’m really sorry to hear that. The agency demo video is indeed one video: http://43eb74ada891f0f09679-c04bb4ac5bb47a13c85d2a60607693e6.r18.cf2.rackcdn.com/slomosf.webm – the HTML video element does not offer such a feature at its core to rotate between videos. We just used a stock video that is a few different shots to capture to energetic style of an agency. It was a trend going on near the time we made the demo.

Hey! :)))

hope its all well!

for the Meta from bottom on hover + entire thumb link option in the portfolio on mobile devices:

1 I’d like to change the projects per page

2 decrease the font size of the meta

3 change the position of the meta to the bottom of the thumbnail

please? :))

Best

Xx

Nadia

Thanks Nadia!

It’s not possible to change the pagination (projects per page) only on a specific device, but the other two items can be handled with css. Add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel:


@media only screen and (max-width: 690px) {
body .portfolio-items .work-item.style-4 .bottom-meta,
body .portfolio-items .work-info {
    position: relative;
}
.portfolio-items .work-info { padding:0; }

.portfolio-items .work-item.style-4 .bottom-meta h3 { 
  font-size: 18px!important;
}
}

Cheers

hey, thx for your quick response :)) unfortunately this does not work… it adds some weird spacing problems to the pictures themselves + doesn’t influence the text size no matter what value I put? :(

https://vagabondcrystals.com

Hey nadiavonscotti,

It looks like you’re using the “Meta on hover + entire thumb link” style on your home page rather than the “Meta from bottom on hover”, which was what the snippet I provided was targeting

Change the snippet to this:


@media only screen and (max-width: 690px) {
body .portfolio-items .work-info { top: auto;  bottom: 20px; height: auto; } 
body .portfolio-items .work-info  h3 { font-size: 14px!important; }
}

Not sure when it started, but I’m having issues with full width background rows with fixed parallax background speed. The rows appear as white space on Chrome, but seem to be working on Firefox and Safari. This was never an issue before, and I haven’t made any changes since it was working before (though I have updated the theme in hopes it would fix the problem). You can see this happening on the following pages:

http://im.dakotabrinkert.com/power-digital-marketing/ (Green Hope section) http://im.dakotabrinkert.com/photography/ (After/Before Section)

Thanks for all of the help!

Hey TheRooster,

add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel to fix it for now :)


.full-width-section.parallax_section .row-bg-wrap, .full-width-content.parallax_section .row-bg-wrap, .wpb_row.parallax_section .row-bg-wrap, .wpb_row .row-bg-wrap .inner-wrap {
    transform: translateZ(0);
}

Cheers

Worked! Thanks!

You’re welcome TheRooster :)

i cant use any plugin to add tabs for products. How can i do this on Salient.

Hey tacoro, can you provide the plugin you’re trying to use to accomplish that so I can take a look?

Thanks

OK, as i mention i try a lot. Here is three of them:

yikes easy custom woocommerce product tabs

Woocommerce Custom Tabs

Hey tacoro, I just tested yikes easy custom woocommerce product tabs with the theme and can successfully show a custom tab on a product page. Are you adding the tab into the actual product page? The custom tabs need to be assigned to individual products, the overall custom tab template in the plugin settings are only to create reusable tabs which can then be assigned per product

How Can I change the theme language?

Hey hiGwindor, please see the docs in regards: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/translations/

Thanks. :) New Problem the article does not appear in the middle section. the unseen place https://imgur.com/a/Tji6Vj4

Hey hiGwindor,
