Hi Guys – love the salient theme! This has been mentioned, but could I get a current update on what requirements Salient (WP) and its associated plugins etc need to be to work with PHP 7? I need to start upgrading sites. Also, I’m using the Child Theme. Do I leave that alone or do I need to update that also? Cheers!

Hey creativeunited, please see my response to your previous comment in regards

Cheers

Thank you!

You’re welcome creativeunited :)

Hey creativeunited,

In order to use PHP 7 you’ll need to be on Salient at least v 8.5.5 of the theme and 5.4.7 of the Salient WPBakery page builder

Cheers

Thank you!

You’re welcome creativeunited :)

Tahir,

I turned off page transitions and the mobile hamburger link on the iPhone and iPad do not work. Also the standard contact Form 7 does not work on the same mobile devices. Something is not right. I should be able to keep the header transparency in mobile mode and the hamburger and forms work well. I have never seen this before. Can you please check my site.

I have been a loyal user of your template for many years and never have I seen this.

You’re not addressing the problem. All you’re doing is looking at the easy and obvious. I need your help!!! Study my website first. The side mobile canvas at 1000px kicks in and works fine on a desktop all the way down to 335px screen width. BUT when I view the site on a smartphone in portrait or landscape the hamburger link does NOT work. I do have menu links, but I am hiding them from the main top horizontal navigation. 2nd Problem: The form fields do not work on both forms. This is a one page landing page. My anchor links are built in the top banner. Please study the problem!! I need your help.

I appreciate your expertise and help. I’m a long time user.

Hey Erik, from the URL you shared here all I was able to see was the splash page with nothing else other than your logo – I’ve located the ticket you opened on the support forum in order to see the main home page and take a closer look at the issue. Kindly check back there in regards

Is it possible to hide certain widgets in the side widget area, when viewing on a mobile?

Also is there a way to reduce the width of the “Account” login/register field. Without affecting the width of the “Account” area once customers are logged in. Atm the login field is stretched.

Thank you.

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


@media only screen and (max-width: 1000px) and (min-width: 1px) {
#slide-out-widget-area .widget_nav_menu {
   display: none;
}
}

Cheers

Works great, thanks. Fantastic support as always, keep up the good work.

You’re welcome MarcGarner :)

Hi guys, first thanks for this awesome theme.. Your support team member Tahir asked me to post a comment here. :)

I used boxed layout with a background image. When checking on desktop all mobile devices sizes are fine! But on a real mobile the background image is not working on SAFARI and CHROME! Why is that? salmamusik.de

Greetings from Germany Kathy

Hey Kathy, I’ll take a look shortly :)

Hi,

Your Ticksy support told me to post here. I’m having this issue: On mobile, if I click in the center (blank area, no buttons) the header changes shade as if it were a button press. I’d like to remove this from happening.

Here’s a Youtube video of the problem: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dci1FcKXVVk

Thank you, Gabe

Hey Gabe, I’ll take a look for you ticket in regards.

Cheers

Hi,

I’m using the latest version of the theme.

When I’m going to remove any item from the cart https://webdevelopment.imecnetwork.com.my/cart/?removed_item=1 the entire page is loading. Which is not expected.

Has there ajax cart system in the theme, so that item will remove without page load?

Also, I want same ajax system when user adding a product to their cart. That mean product will add to the Cart without the page load. Is it possible?

BR, Mofi

Hey ThemePackNet, if you’re on the latest version of the theme (8.5.6) 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

Hi,

I’m using the version 8.5.3 and have the “cart” folder into “woocommerce” folder- http://prntscr.com/k2seq0

How to I can remove from ‘cart’ with ajax load?

Hey ThemePackNet, please update to the current version to get that functionality

Hi, Your support team on Ticksy (ticket ID is #1627339) asked me to post a comment here so you can take a look into the issue.

My Shop page is not displaying properly in Safari – the image rows are jumping and overlapping.

I have installed the latest updates but the problem persists. It only happens in Safari on the main shop page – the categories pages are displaying correctly.

Main shop page https://20thcenturyclassics.co.uk/shop-2/

Category page https://20thcenturyclassics.co.uk/product-category/posters/

It looks like the spacing of column on ‘Shop page with Sidebar’ does not work in Safari.

I have superimposed the screenshots of Shop page & category page and the container for category page is wider than shop’s page. Can this be causing the problem?

Regards, Beata

Hey Beata,

Thanks for letting me know – I will check out the ticket in regards :)

Cheers

Hello again!

Another problem – (I think it’s a bug) – The navigation items do not inherit the row colors of the slides. I have nectar sliders on 2 pages with text on each slide and while the logo inherits the same slide font color, the menu items don’t. I have set the font colors right for each slide.

Can you help? I have previously shared my login details, would you like me to do it again thru author page?

Thank you!

Hey LokalTours,

The Nectar Slider will use the “Header Starting Text Color” (for light) and “Header Dark Text Colors” (for dark) as defined by you in the Salient options panel > header navigation > transparency tab. It appears you had them both set to black – I changed the starting color to white to fix the issue

Cheers

Thank you so much for your prompt support as always. It works great on desktop but on the mobile screen you cant see the menu items on those pages because of the white header. To be able to fix that I had to set it up dark but it (Btw I hide the sliders on mobile.) Any solution to fix it on mobile screen?

Hey LokalTours,

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


@media only screen and (max-width: 1000px) {
body #header-outer.transparent header#top nav .sf-menu > li.current-menu-item > a,
body #header-outer.transparent header#top nav > ul > li > a {
  color: #333!important;
}

body #header-outer[data-lhe="animated_underline"].transparent header#top nav > ul > li > a:after, body #header-outer.transparent header#top nav>ul>li[class*="button_bordered"]>a:before {
  border-color: #333!important;
}
}

Cheers

Hey guys,

first thanks for this awesome support here.. Here it is “mobile background doesn’t work!”

I used boxed layout and a background image. When checking on desktop with different mobile devices sizes, it`s fine! But on real mobile its not! My iphone6, used safari. Tried with friends mobiles too, same problem with SAFARI and CHROME only. Why is that?

greetings from Germany :)

Hey Werbeagentier!

Could you kindly share your URL in regards so I can take a look?

Thanks :)

Hi,

https://salmamusik.de thanks! And by the way, how can i improve loading time, it takes seconds …Images are optimized and only text on this website?!

:)

Hey Werbeagentier,

1. Please check back on the ticket in regards

2. It appears you need to minify/concatenate your theme assets still – have you checked out the docs here yet: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/performance-optimization-guide/

Cheers

Hi, how can I set up this version of the shop… what is the best way to do this from a fresh install – http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-business/shop/

Hey oo7ml,

You can import the business demo from the Salient options panel > demo importer tab after you have WooCommerce installed to ensure you get the products installed

Cheers

FEATURE REQUEST: Add icon list within 2nd order row. Not possible right now. THANKS!

Hey mardoqueo, thanks for the request :)

Hey onocomp, I haven’t personally tested with that plugin but if it gives any issues just let me know.

Cheers

Hi, How do I add optin forms on my website that will go to a specific page(thank you page) I choose one a user fills in their name and email address

Hey diademdesignstudio,

There’s no form system built into Salient, for that you would need to use an external plugin. Salient supports form styling for most major plugins e.g Contact form 7, Gravity forms etc

Cheers

You’re welcome :)

Hello, sorry to bother you with such an easy question! How do I change the size of a button? (I went through the Nectar shortcodes). I pretty much want something inbetween Jumbo and Extra_Jumbo. I tried inputing this code I found on another comment, but couldn’t figure it out. Thanks for your help! (I made the sizes really big to see how big it was going to be, but still no change! I don’t know where to go from here, have a wonderful day and thank you!)

*the code I saw had .large-button so I tried jumbo and didn’t do anything :)

.jumbo-button .nectar-button { font-size: 100px!important; padding: 320px 360px!important; }

Hey Andrew1G!

Could you kindly share the URL where the button exists that you’re trying to change so I can take a look why it’s not working for you?

Cheers

Is there a way to display blog posts on a page by “Tag” instead of Category?

Hey tmudd89,

There’s no option to query for that in the blog page builder element, but you can link to the tag archive pages using the tag cloud widget

Cheers

You’re very welcome Jacampos

Hello again, the code you gave me helped me solve the problem in the portfolio, but when I try to create portals of portfolio type images, the last image creates it at 100% width. How can I specify in the css that the code provided to me only affects the portfolio? Thank you. https://jhonychavesta.com/?portfolio=pozuelo

Hey Jacampos,

You could change the above snippet to limit it to the home page only like so:


.home .portfolio-items.masonry-items > div:last-child {
  width: 100%!important;
}  
.home .portfolio-items.masonry-items > div:last-child img {
  height: auto!important;
}

Cheers

Hi,

On mobile for my blog posts, the header nav comes down over the featured image and obscures the top part of the header image, you can see it’s sort of hidden beneath it: https://bacc.cc/am-i-likable/

Not sure why it’s doing this, here’s an example of the same blog post header settings on the demo and it is not doing that: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-blog-ultimate/deep-down-in-the-water/

Any ideas as to why this is happening? Thanks!

Hey mikequery,

This will be sorted in the upcoming release – to fix it now, add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel:


@media only screen and (max-width: 1000px) { 
  body #page-header-wrap { margin-top: 0; }
}

Cheers

Hello,

I would like to purchase your theme, but first I would like to know if its compatible with PHP 5.4.45.

Cheers

Hey tim_bruss, a minimum of PHP 5.5 is recommended to ensure stability

How do I make an image gallery and add it to an article? Example: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-blog-ultimate/be-my-guest-concert/

visual example: https://imgur.com/a/DbY1VwB

Hey hiGwindor,

You can use the page builder inside of any post and use the image gallery element for that: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/galleries/#imagegrid

Cheers
