Hi there, Do any of the social sharing buttons show the share count? Or is it dependant on the theme template used?
Hey RollingSpoke,
We’ve weened off of showing the share count in the various share locations once there was a trend from the social media services to stop allowing public access to the share count. The latest sharing option is a fixed button without the counts that follows you on scroll. e.g. http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-blog-ultimate/

Having an issue with the menu between certain site widths.

Hey Egaffin, that’s occurring when the top navigation is running out of room for the menu items – if you enable the “Full Width Header” option in the Salient options panel > header navigation > layout related tab, it should fix it
Cheers
I have pages using dark rows and light rows (affecting the text). As link colors are pulled from the accent color, this causes problems for me. My accent color is blue, similar to the demo, but some backgrounds are blue (with white text) and image backgrounds. Links on top of those gets lost… So, is it possible with some CSS to adjust the .light to be a different color links perhaps? Please advise. Thanks!
Hey rproeis!
Could you kindly share your URL in regards so I can see the setup to assist?
Thanks 
As usual, absolutely love what you guys do. But since the update, it seems that background videos that are meant to loop and autoplay no longer work?
https://thesesignatures.com/work/decoster/ https://thesesignatures.com/work/purplespread/Please assist!
Hey aderynnn,
this issue was caused by the latest Chrome release (they changed policies for autoplaying videos) – we did however sort this in the current Salient version (8.5.6) http://themenectar.com/changelogs/salient.html It appears you’re on 8.5.5
Cheers
Hi #TN, I purchased Salient theme. How can I estimated time for blog posts. I didn’t find any particular plugin for. Can you please tell me how to put reading time on only blog posts?
Hey santhi_lakshmi,
Unfortunately I don’t have a a specific plugin to recommend for that as of now and there’s no theme option for that as of now. However, upon searching there does seem to be a few free plugins to handle that: https://wordpress.org/plugins/tags/reading-time/

Hi there, Any chance you’d consider adding native TypeKit support to the theme? I was using the snippet bellow to add fonts and while it works for one single font, it has stopped working for more than one. The moment I add it to the functions.php file it crashes the website. Do you mind elaborating on a fix or different implementation?
function salient_redux_custom_fonts( $custom_fonts ) {
return array(
'Custom Fonts' => array(
'futura-pt,sans-serif' => "Futura PT",
‘adelle,serif’ => “Adelle”,
'third-font' => "Third Font"
)
);
}
add_filter( "redux/salient_redux/field/typography/custom_fonts", "salient_redux_custom_fonts" );
Hey BlueScreenPanda, from the snippet you pasted, the quotes used in your second font are not standard HTML entities:
https://imgur.com/a/U6fjqUTCan you try deleting them and retpying those in your child theme functions.php to see if that was the root of your issue?
Cheers
Hello can I open the images with lightbox? This is my website, http://ketchupstudiobkk.com/ . It will open the full size image in the link. Thanks very much
Hey twinsterphoto,
Try switching your page transition method to “standard” from the currently selected “ajax” in the Salient options panel > page transitions tab
Cheers
When is the new (big) update coming out, in the last minor update it said due out mid june… i am really really curious…
Hey Nicknick, It got delayed partially because of unexpected items that are now being integrated such as a new mapping solution, the new WPBakery page builder etc. I would still estimate early July – though we’re actively passing out the beta now. If you’d like a copy, please reach out in regards via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar
When I initially purchased this theme I was more than happy with the features, and the backend. Many of the great features are saved as theme-builder templates which makes using your fav aspects of the demo in your website.
About a month ago I began having issues using REV SLIDER (one of the most common wordpress plugins available). Support was helping initially, but once they needed to get a developer involved I couldn’t get a response. I’ve been waiting 3 weeks now and haven’t heard from them. I’ve followed up twice since, and still no response.
I understand that most people may not have such specific issues that require developers to get involved, but this author needs a better process/communication to help when things don’t work.
My ticket is https://themenectar.ticksy.com/ticket/1595634/
Thanks
Hey phaxgaming,
I’m sorry to hear about that – I took a look over the ticket earlier today and responded in regards
Cheers
Hi, I cant use search on my blog with Polish accent characters words. It gives 403 error. Could you look at ticket #1623760? What can I do with that? What should I say to Client? She cannot use search bar on her blog.
Hey trelam,
I just took a look and responded in regards
Cheers
Thank you, you are right, the security plugin is blocking searching.
Glad I could help trelam
BTW, the best theme ever!!! Thank you all!
Thanks a lot trelam, that’s awesome to hear

Hey dimage,
In the Salient options panel > typography tab you can set the desired text transform for the “Page Heading Font”
Cheers
hi again at http://gastromallorca.net/som/news/ how can i hide the post date, avatar and name som hotels? thanks
Hey dimage,
add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel:
.masonry.material .masonry-blog-item .grav-wrap,
.related-posts[data-style="material"] .grav-wrap { display: none; }
.single #single-below-header { display: none; }
Cheers
Had no problems before, but recently I am seeing an issue in chrome with the parallax full width background image not showing on desktop/tablet, but shows on small mobile? All works in other browsers such as safari. Any thoughts?
Hey mbianchi27,
Could you kindly share the URL in regards so I can take a closer look to assist?
Thanks
hi there, pulled Salient out of retirement for a small fun e-commerce site, but my cart page insists on displaying in two columns (which is affecting button layout etc. too): https://www.ceramicwasp.co.uk/cart/
Tried to compare it to the demo site ( http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-ecommerce/cart/ ) and saw additional responsive class names that don’t seem to be in mine (though it’s the latest version I just downloaded and woocommerce is up to date. Wondered if there’s an easy fix? Shouldn’t be anything else interfering with the CSS… Thanks!
more specifically: shop_table cart woocommerce-cart-form__contents vs. shop_table shop_table_responsive cart woocommerce-cart-form__contents
ok solved – just in case anybody else is having the same issue – put this in your child theme: https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce/blob/master/templates/cart/cart.php in woocommerce/cart/
though I’ve just noticed my ‘proceed to checkout’ has now disappeared!
just hardcoded one in linking to /checkout. seems to do the job…
Hey portablemarko,
Can you check the woocommerce directory inside of your Salient theme folder to ensure that there is no “cart” directory? The cart directory was removed a few releases ago and if it lingered around in your setup post updating, it would indeed cause issues
Cheers
Hi,
I have already uploaded the video in all possible formats that are indicated in the configuration and the error persists when you try to access from Chrome. We have been doing some checks and the problem is not in the video. If you choose an image as background or if you simply delete the video and leave it empty, exactly the same thing happens.
In addition, it is not only the video, but all the content of the page. If you reload the page from Chrome you can see how everything is ok, but the first time you access the page is blocked and does not load almost any information, or the video or the text below in the rest of the page.
We do not know what to do to solve the problem. Could you check if it was the error that I indicated in the screenshot?
Here is the screenshot:
Thank you very much for your help. The ticket number is: #1614143

Hey cuentashydra, I will take a look shortly in regards
Is it possible to set all blog posts to pull the featured image to use for the header image background on the post?
We have hundreds of blog posts that we migrated over so it wouldn’t be feasible for us to go through each one and manually change the header image, so hoping that there is a global setting that can accomplish this.
Hey mikequery,
Unfortunately there’s no such option as of now, but i’ve noted the idea for the wishlist. For now you could copy the “nectar_page_header” function from the functions.php into a child them functions.php to make that mod
Cheers
Is it possible to only do Passepartout on only one section at the top of my page?
Hey mikelaha, that would require some custom development at the moment, but i’ve noted the idea on the wishlist
Cheers
I just found that if enable option “Header with secondary Navigation” this template page http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-corporate/about/ will cause weird gap between sticky header and page sub menu ( see https://s15.postimg.cc/j7hak178b/Screen_Shot_2018-06-29_at_1.20.26_AM.png )
Hey dcmarcus,
I can’t seem to get that to occur locally – can you share your URL in regards so I can take a look at your whole setup?
Thanks
Right here https://bit.ly/2tGcHWr tq
Thanks dcmarcus,
This has been isolated to only occur with the Material theme skin when the “hide header until needed” animation effect is disabled. I’ve added the fix into the current beta, 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

Hi! I cant figure out why my menu items on mobile aren´t displaying. Anyone who can help me figure it out? I think it must be related with CSS.
http://bit.ly/salient-farmlandThanks in advance,
Hernan B.
Hey WeboCreativo,
It seems that the minification you have on is effecting it – for now, add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel:
#slide-out-widget-area .mobile-only { display: block!important; }
Cheers
Hi there 
can I use you Salient Visual Composer in other themes?
And would it contain your templates?
Hey Obieey, please see my response to your earlier comment in regards
Cheers
