Hi guys,

Love the work.

Quick question – my page is not loading unless I refresh the page. (going from home -> work page shows the blank page).

Anything I can do to resolve this?

Thanks!

http://jongstra.be/hildenew/ (click on the title to move to the work page, which stays blank)

sure. i think it mainly happens on the larger screens. you can see what happens here with the footer: https://cl.ly/sia0

I’ve stumbled upon an extra issue; the same portfolio masonry grid under paintings does not listen to the specific measurements im setting per picture (tall, wide, ...). How can I resolve this?

Hey Invertt,

From my end i’m seeing the sizes take effect: https://imgur.com/a/doiydpa and unfortunately haven’t been able to see any issues with the lightbox either after trying a few of your images on various screen sizes.

Could you let me know what version of Chrome you’re on?

Cheers

Hi, I’d like to have the header resize on scroll (just want the logo to reducein size) but only for the mobile version of the site. Could you please advise

thank you

Hey tricks28,

Unfortunately that event doesn’t get bound on mobile screen sizes, so you would simply need to set your mobile logo height smaller via the theme options panel > header navigation tab to begin with

I know you’re working on a big update now, but could I make a request for a future update feature…

The “Custom CSS Code” box in the Theme Options… I’m putting more and more code in there each time I use your theme. It would be cool if this had it’s own tab so the box could be much taller/wider and not have scrollbars. It’s a bit clunky adding lots of lines of code in there with no word-wrapping and having to scroll side to side to read long lines.

A lot of this has to do with not being able to overwrite WooCommerce styles in the Child style.css and always having to use the Custom CSS box :-0

Cheers!

Hey SeanAUS120!

Thanks for the request, i’ve noted it on the wishlist :)

Cheers

I’m having an issue with how the blog posts are showing up. I imported the “Corporate” Demo, and my blog posts look like this (zoomed out to 50% so you can see the whole page at once) https://imgur.com/a/4UP6eI1

It looks as if it’s acting like there’s no content, because the social buttons, the next post navigation, and the comment section are all really high up on the page and the content is underneath it. I tried different settings in the Salient Theme menu, but I’ve had no luck. How can I fix this to be normal?

Actually, I kind of figured it out, the issue was that it was converting the text into a text box inside a column, inside a row, and the settings were “in container”. I changed it to Full width, and then adding padding to both left and right sides.

But, that’s seems like a very inelegant solution. Is there another, better way to do this? Why would the default look like what it originally did in the photo I linked? Also, now the social buttons on the bottom are unclickable. How can I fix that?

I’m sorry, disregard all of that. The issue was a stupid CSS setting I had for another thing that conflicted. I’m sorry for all that, I figured it out.

No worries dlapz1001, I’m glad to hear you’ve sorted it :)

Hello.

After setting up Woothemes on Salient, I am getting the error that the Woothemes templates on Salient are out of date.

Is it necessary to update?

If so, how can I update this?

Hey genm, what template files are showing out of date? I’ve tested the current Woocommerce (3.4.3) with Salient 8.5.6 and don’t see the warning for any of the overrides

Thanks

Hey genm,

did you modify the theme files directly? If not, you can simply update using one of the available methods: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/updating-salient/

I noticed that menu has problem on Safari for Mac, the latest version (at least). When you scroll the menu disappears and it needs to refresh the page to appear again. Any solution ?

Hey thanasis, I just tested this locally on Safari 11 and have been unable to replicate. Can you let me know the exact browser version? I also just tried using Browserstack, but also couldn’t get it to occur yet.

Thanks

Hello and sorry for the delay.

It is Safari 11.1.1 running on a macOS High Sierra 10.13.5 MacBook Air

Hey thanasis,

I’m afraid I still haven’t been able to reproduce on that setup to debug – is there any specific manner you have to scroll in order to it to hide? Does it occur for you every time you scroll or is it only certain instances?

when i try to edit it will not save. I have the latest theme release installed and have not added any plugins since this started happening. Any help would be great..Thanks

Hey msurma00,

Are there any errors being reported in the browser console when you click on the save button? 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

Thanks

Hello,

Will there be an theme admin option to change the /portfolio/ slug for projects in the next update?

Many thanks, Mike

Hey trustedthemes,

There’s an option for that already in the Salient options panel > portfolio > functionality tab called “Custom Slug”

Cheers

Thank you so much. Sorry, I missed the functionality sub tab. Got it now :)

Hey trustedthemes, glad to hear :)

Hi ThemeNectar, Will the next update on mid-July include news on Modal>Html>Iframe capability? Thank you!

Hey dummy123,

Yes – we’ll be adding a solution for that! :)

Cheers

Great! Looking forward to that! Thanks!

You’re welcome dummy123 :)

Is this possible?

https://kb.wpbakery.com/docs/wpbakery-page-builder-how-tos/how-to-change-gap-between-columns/

Seems to have been in place in PageBuilder for a while, but still doesn’t seem to be a feature in Salient? Cheers

Hey ravenswoodmedia,

Salient has its own padding system for columns, if you’re using to remove the gap between columns you’d need to make use of “Column Margin” option available as an option on the inner row element

Great thank you (I note that it’s “default”, or “nothing” – any plans to make this editable?) Cheers!

Hey ravenswoodmedia,

I’ve noted your +1 for the idea on the wishlist :)

Cheers

Hi

I raised a ticket yesterday before my item support expired but Tahir has come back to me asking for further information on the matter and I am unable to respond. The ticket number in question is #1627250 titled ‘Button Module’.

In response to Tahir’s question, the issue is occurring on the homepage – /redes

What would be the best way to go about getting this ticket resolved?

Thanks, David

Hey David,

The gradient button style in the Ascend theme skin uses that swift swipe hover effect and can’t have rounded edges – to fix that, simply switch to the “material” theme skin in the Salient options panel > general settings tab in order to take advantage of the latest gradient button styling

Cheers

Hello Team,

Can you confirm this theme works with MySQL 5.7 and PHP 7.2?

Thanks you.

Hey princebhalani143, it will work but as of now if you have WP_DEBUG mode on you’ll see a warning for a Deprecated function call. That will be fixed shortly and as long as the debug mode is off, everything should function correctly.

Thanks for the detailed information

You’re welcome princebhalani143

Hello, we have problem with description inside page when debug for Facebook. On og:description we see a source code [vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” overlay_strength=”0.3” instead of text description. We can help us to fix this problem? It’s a problem about theme? Thank you.

Hey subwaylab,

What are you using to set the og tag – Could you kindly share the URL in regards so we can take a look?

Cheers

Hello, we use Yoast plugin. Provide Us your email and we will send link to you. This problem appears only with pages type… it’s very strange. Other people have the same problem? Thank you.

Hey subwaylab, please reach out in regards via the contact form on my author page

Hi, i added image gallery in a page “Image Gallery > Nectar Slider Style” the slideshow plays automatically. How can I stop slides to auto play?

Hey astutestudio,

For now it would require modding to the vc-gallery.php file inside nectar/nectar-vc-addons/vc_templates at the line “data-autorotate=”5500” – however i’ve noted your +1 for the idea to make this an option within the image gallery element

Cheers

Means if i set autorotate to “0” this wont rotate automatically, right … but this won’t effect nectar slider of home page which is set to autorotate? please advise.

Hey astutestudio,

That’s correct – it will only effect the Nectar Slider style within the image gallery element

Cheers

Is it possible to set Form Styling to Minimal in the Salient options but have a specific page set to “inherit from theme skin”?

Hey peterstavrou,

As of now this would require some custom modding, however I’ve noted the idea for the wishlist to have a page specific override

Cheers

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/

Cheers

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/
