Hello,
is it possible to have content expand to the left and right on a boxed layout? When I do negative left/right margins, the content wont expand beyond the container. So basically, I’d like content to overlap the boxed layout background.
Thanks in advance!
Hey clixgroup,
For that you would need to remove the hidden overflow when using the boxed container, however it could cause some layout inconsistencies
If you want to try, add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel:
body #boxed .container-wrap {
overflow: visibile;
}
Cheers
Yeah, that is a little troublesome to get the responsive nature down in mobile. I think I’ll try a 1/6 + 2/3 + 1/6 layout with full content and make the outside sixths a mock background. Thanks for help! Looking forward to the theme update!
You’re welcome clixgroup 
I want to buy this theme, how long can I expect updates?
Hey thehouseofwebdesign,
There’s a major update being released in around 1 week, if you’re unsure as of now feel free to wait and see what’s new

Thank You! Everything looks very nice so far in beta, but how about WPBakery Front-end? In beta version its not active, will it be active on final version?

Good Morning,
I was wondering if you could help me with the following:
I am trying to link to a Chat Lightbox through a Button Element.
I cant seem to get the following HTML Link:
To open when clicking on the button.
Example page here: http://combatweaponstorage.com/how-to-buy/chat-with-us Thank you in advance for your assistance!Hey ashlingmoss1,
The actually button element i’m seeing on the page URL currently has not destination set for the link, I’m only seeing ”#”. 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
Hi, I am wondering do you have problems with site speed, as some reviews I was reading had that problem and some sites that I found online had site speed over 2 seconds. Theme seems amazing and I will gladly purchase it, if my site speed remains the same as it is now (0.8 sec)
Thanks
Hey imtove,
Feel free to check out the demos and inspect around to get an idea of the performance
Cheers

Hi,
Is it possible to change the portfolio title attribute – currently it’s set to a
and i’d like them to be read as
.
Thanks
Hi,
Is it possible to change the portfolio title attribute currently it’s set to “h3” a
and i’d like them to be read as “p” .
Thanks
Hey AletalkProductions, you can adjust the font of that heading to match a p style with css, which I could help with if you can share your URL. However, if you want to change it to a p for SEO reasons, you’d need to modify the single-portfolio.php file in regards
Thanks for the reply, it is for SEO as it’s throwing my headers off – can you advise how to amend the php file you mentioned, thanks.
Hey AletalkProductions, sorry for the misunderstanding – I thought you were referring to the actual “attributes” of the portfolio post type, reading again I now realize you’re talking about the titles on the projects themselves. If you’re using the page builder to add your portfolio to your page, the file to modify is actually “nectar/tinymce/shortcode-processing.php” In there search for “nectar_portfolio_processing” and then scroll down until you find the heading tags within it
Thanks, I’ve opened the file you’ve mentioned and can’t find anything to do with the nectar_portfolio_processing or any h3 tags either using ctrl+ F
The page I”m working on is www.creativevideoproduction.co.uk
Hey AletalkProductions, what version of the theme are you on? I’ll give you the line numbers
Cheers
Thanks, I’m on 8.5.3. Cheers
Hey, the portfolio processing function should start on line 1230 in that file for 8.5.3

Hey! Love this theme, but the flip-box doesn’t work in Safari on Mac Ver. 11.1.2 anymore! It flips, but without animation. Any idea how to fix this?
never mind.. its a problem with z-index on the header! Sorry!
Hey flipmode, glad to hear you’ve got that sorted
At the above comment, yes you can, Woocommerce is completely supported with Salient and Blogs layouts are included.
Hey MatthewMurdoch, thanks a lot for helping out
Hi guys,
does Salient allow me to include a Blog in my website? What I mean by that is, can I easily build my website using Salient’s tools and ALSO have a blog page in it?
Thank you!
Also, can I integrate Salient with Woocommerce so I can sell an ebook?
Hey bru1987,
1. Yes, you can have a blog separate from any other pages you decide to create using the page builder
2. Salient offers WooCommerce integration and is even about to release new eCommerce demos
Cheers
Hi ThemeNectar,
that is brilliant. Another question: can I have a login form on the website? Is that implemented on the theme?
I’m selling online courses in it, that’s why I ask. I need to control access to the courses.
Thank you,
Hey bru1987, Salient supplies form styling for any form element used however there’s no additional login system beyond what WordPress already offers. If you’re looking to have the login tied to an account for purchases, that would be handled all through WooCommerce
That would work great, thank you.
Guys I have one more question, I was wondering if you could help me with this: since I am building a math-heavy website and I will allow comments on the posts, could I use the LaTeX syntax on it?
(please check the link below) https://www.quora.com/What-is-LaTeX-How-do-I-use-it Can you run a test by using a Wordpress plugin and checking the result? You may use this plugin: https://br.wordpress.org/plugins/wp-latex/ I want to make sure it looks great.Thank you very much for the support.
Hey bru1987,
Most third party plugins should work and I can’t see why there would be an issue with that one. If you end up purchasing Salient and run into an issue with it that we can’t quickly sort out, you can also easily request get a refund anytime if needed: https://themeforest.net/refund_requests/new Cheers
Hello, I see I understand what you mean. It would be helpful nevertheless to know what the result of using the LaTeX syntax would look like beforehand.
I have another question ThemeNectar: can I create a call to action, to purchase an ebook or to sign up to my mailing list, in the middle of the post? How would it look like? Would it have the same design as the theme?
Thank you.
Hey bru1987,
The page builder offers elements for buttons and premade call to action layouts you can insert anywhere, however if you need the cta to function as a mailing list subscription another plugin would be required. There’s no form system built into Salient itself, but we provide styling for form elements through plugins such as Contact form 7, gravity forms etc.
Cheers
I am trying to create an image gallery on a new website using salient theme. I am using the masonry grid. I am trying to force the grid to only show the correct number of images to fill the screen evenly and show/hide images based on the current break point, so there are no gaps.
For example in the website I provided (joshuabutts.com, which I coded myself, not in salient) on the homepage, there are 4 images at the bottom. But when the image is resized to a break-point, it hides the last image, but then when the screen is even smaller, it shows the image again to fill the screen so there is no gap.
Is there a way in salient to tag images as ‘hide when necessary’ or an equivalent functionality, to ensure the screen will never have a gap in the gallery? I tried the ‘Constrain Max Columns to 4’ option but I don’t want to always have 4 columns and I may not always have a gallery that is divisible by 4.
If this is not currently a feature/possibility, I would love to request it. I think it would be very useful for many people.
Hey joshbuttsphoto!
There’s currently no option like that for the portfolio image gallery – however, if you manually created a grid of images just using rows/columns you could hide any column on various viewports to achieve what you’re talking about by using the “responsive options” tab inside of every edit column modal
Cheers
Could you provide me css with with flipping the order of an image and text in mobile
Ie: in mobile, image is top, text is below, but needs to be otherway around
Hey MatthewMurdoch, kindly share the page URL you’re trying to achieve that on so I can provide an example
Cheers
Hey MatthewMurdoch,
Give the row holding those columns a class so it can be targeted with css e.g. “reverse-mobile-flow” and then add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel:
@media only screen and (max-width: 1000px) {
.reverse-mobile-flow > .span_12 {
display: flex;
flex-direction: column-reverse;
}
}
Cheers
div class="col span_12 dark leftBut following your instructions I can see the class in a further up div but does not apply the css
Here is the screenshot: https://imgur.com/a/xCUGuuc
Hey MatthewMurdoch,
The class name needs to go on the actual row rather then the column for the snippet I provided
Cheers
Sorry to be a pain, I did try it in the row, produced the same result. Screenshots as follows: https://imgur.com/a/hbOBzt4 and https://imgur.com/a/lptyp9J
Nevermind figured it out, ;d
Glad to hear MatthewMurdoch
Hi,
When you’re on a small screen laptop the navigation creates scroll bars on the bottom and side. Please can you tell me how to avoid this. Hopefully we can avoid them but I need to at least get rid of the horizontal one.
thanks
https://vapesandtobacco.com/Hey tricks28,
I can’t currently see that happening anywhere when reducing the window size all the way from desktop to mobile – can you let me know what browser/OS you’re seeing that occur on?
Thanks
It happens in firefox and chrome when you select the sub navigation items. i.e. select PROHIBITION VAPES
basically when the height of the browser window becomes too small for all of the menu you get horizontal and vertical scroll bars.
I’m happy for you to reduce the logo for this screen size and hide text “SA’s forward-thinking online retailer of vape and tobacco goods.” if that helps give us more room for the menu.
Hi, Okay – I’ve managed to hide the text and hide the horizontal scroll bar.
So basically all I’m after now is that the logo area becomes smaller for this screen size and the navigation area becomes higher. So the larger menu has more space and the vertical scroll will be less likely to kick in
Hopefully that makes sense.
Hey tricks28,
You can modify the header logo height globally from the options panel > header navigation tab. However if you only want to reduce it at a specific screen size use the following in the custom css box in your Salient options panel:
@media only screen and (max-width: 1300px) and (min-width: 1000px) {
#header-outer #logo img {
height: 150px!important;
}
html body[data-header-format="left-header"] #header-outer .row .col.span_9 {
top: 190px!important;
}
}
Cheers
Thank you.
On the mobile view the cart doesnt show that there are products in the basket. Can it act the same as the full size view – ie. change color and indicate how many items are in the cart.
Hey tricks28,
Change your theme skin to “material” in the Salient options panel > general settings tab to get that functionality by default
Cheers
Thank you – I’ve done that and it works nicely. Only problem is the search feature for material is cutting off on mobile – ie. can’t read the search to input text and the close button is gone.
cheers
never-mind I’ve swopped back to original, I need too many of originals stylings.
is there no way to show the cart number on original?
Hey tricks28,
The material skin is the only way to get that functionality as of now, if you’d like to enable it again I’d be glad to check your URL to see why it’s not displaying the search correctly
Cheers
Is there a way to create a menu populated with portfolio categories (Not manually )? Thanks in advance.
Hey WeboCreativo,
You can add categories to a menu in the Appearance > menus section – but there’s no built in method to automatically add new ones without assigning them first yet i’m afraid
Cheers
Does anyone have any experience with using the Secondary Navigation Menu feature and getting this to sit BELOW the Main Navigation Menu? I had hoped to use the Page Sub Navigation but cannot have dropdowns/sub navigation in this element. I need two navigation menu bars, one for the logo and social media fixed to the top and then another menu for the pages – any ideas?
Hey Mercer_Design,
The current beta has a menu pattern like that – 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 Guys, Im using your theme and I really love it, it is very easy to use, but I’m having a trouble. I disabled the header on all the pages, I make them full width and haves a transparency with the logo and some social media icons, but I’m developing a appi and when I run the appi the header appears in with background, also I want to know is there a possibility to disable the header just in the mobile version. Heres the site with tue bug https://losinsensibles.com/reto-de-insensibilidad-2/ when you click on “comenzar” the header appears and eats some part of my title
Hey regiofake,
add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel:
@media only screen and (max-width: 1000px) {
body #header-outer:not([data-permanent-transparent="1"]), body #header-space { display: none!important; }
}
Cheers
Hi there Hope your having a great Tuesday. Quick question… Im using the ecommerce theme, and on the option “Product Style” I have selected “Add to cart Icon on Hover (Classic)”. How can I change the icon that appears on the corner? Check image: https://goo.gl/1kVoER Thanks for your time and support
Hey rasheedny,
That style was just reworked in the current beta and the icon in that image is no longer used. Take a look at the beta version we sent out to you in regards
Cheers
Hi guys and congratulations for the amazing theme! I’m working on a copy already bought by a client of mine and I’d ask a question: I have imported the Agency demo and I’d like to link the full screen page header title to the below content with an anchor. I’ve created a html link in the full screen page header title box to an anchor created in the first row below the full screen page header: the title has become a link but clicking on it does not link to the created anchor. If I load the url with the anchor, it loads instead. Any help? Thank you in advance!
Hey GIORGIDESIGN
Unfortunately the anchor animated scroll functionality is only bound on links within the content area, where as the page header is outside of that. You could disable the page header section and simply use the first row in your page builder as a header (there’s also a fullscreen option available on every row if needed)
Cheers
That way I’ll lose the 3D scroll effect, will I?
Thanks a lot
Hey GIORGIDESIGN, yes unfortunately the box roll is specific to the page header as of now
Hi! How can I move the currency symbol in the pricing table from the left to the right? Thank you!
Hey artivistmovement,
add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel:
.pricing-column-content .dollar-sign {
float: right;
}
Cheers
