Hello,
We’re having an issue with background videos on rows on Chrome. It works when you initially visit the page, but it stops working when you refresh the page, instead reverting to a still image.
The hero section on this page has this issue:
http://aspire.theoceanagency.net/ Thanks!Sorry, that link got messed up. Here’s what it was supposed to be. Thanks!
http://aspire.theoceanagency.net/Hey theoceanagency!
Please ensure your have the option selected in your row settings to “Mute” the video BG – as of the new Chrome release, that’s now required to autoplay videos.

Hey alisonleon,
There’s a few different fancy box styles offered, please let me know which one you’re using so I can assist
Thanks
How can I have the main menu and the secondary fixed when scrolling?
Hey outsiderzone,
That’s the default functionality when using any theme skin except “material” in the Salient options panel > general settings tab
Cheers
hi, I have “material” by default and the secondary nav menu keeps disappearing when I scroll
Hey outsiderzone, please switch the theme skin to “ascend” or “original” to keep the secondary header fixed at the top when scrolling. If that’s not working for you, please share your URL in regards so I can take a look
Cheers
What font works best for Scandinavian characters (å ø æ) across all browsers and devices? Thanks!
Hey cipriano2u,
You can select your font subsets in the Salient options panel > typography tab for all of the available sections. Google
offers tons of fonts with ext latin characters so there’s no single best one
https://fonts.google.com/?subset=latin-ext
Cheers
Thank you!
You’re welcome cipriano2u 
Is there a “go to” guide on how to implement Revolution slider with Salient? Facing an issue where the side menu opens and warps revolution slider out of place.
Figured it out, just place the php code in the page template, works so much better
Hey MatthewMurdoch, what off canvas menu style are you using so I can try and replicate on my end?
Slideout from right
Hey MatthewMurdoch,
Thanks for letting me know – i’ve noted to test with that in regards
Hey homies 
Got an issue. Im using fullscreen page headers, and in the Page Header settings in theme options I’m picking the “default” arrow style. This should mean that on my pages, I have the arrow in the circle style down arrow not the scroll animation – however, on all my pages It’s still showing the scroll animation….halp? Website: http://buyhub.com.au and here is a screen shot of my theme options: http://buyhub.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/default.png Lovvve x
One more question – whats the trick with the masonry gallery type? Using square szed, all my images are minimum requirement for size…choose full width with a 5px gap and still images have huge gap between them and grid looks awful!! Porfolio grid works fix using same images as featured..
Hey ladydekade 
1. That style is also introduced when using the “slightly_rounded” or “slightly_rounded_shadow” button style in the Salient options panel > general settings tab
2. Choose any of the other Gallery Styles for your image gallery – the original old school one “meta below thumb w/ links on hover” uses a lot more padding
Cheers
Amaaaaazing D: I knew i was missing something. RE Point 1, you may want to update your documentation cos it says the wrong place to set it!
Hey ladydekade, thanks for letting me know 
PS wheres my beta link I’ve asked on the profile like 50 times hehe
Hey ladydekade, just sent a copy over 
Hi, how do I add a radius to a portfolio tthumbnail, for the image and the hover? Is there a way I can also remove the title/text from the hover?
Hey alisonleon,
kindly post in the support forum if you’re trying to get many questions answered as this area is only intended for quick questions/pre purchases information: https://themenectar.ticksy.com ThanksHi! we want to put a reservation box inside some nectar slider sliders, is this possible? how? thanks
Hey dimage,
Do you have a shortcode to generate the reservation box or embed code? If so, you can paste that directly into the caption box when editing a slide
Cheers
Hi, when I start Firefox I get this google Top Sites column… it shows the sites you used the most before… it shows the name and a small logo picture… how can I implement this in salient?
I’m using a favicon but no header logo… maybe firefox is using this one? is there a work arounf to upload a logo in the salient option panel, but actually not to show it on the site itself? (but it’s just a guess, I don’t know for sure if firefox will use this as the ressource for the icon)
great theme by the way! Cheers, Michael
Hey Michael!
To implement that it would require some custom development as of now – here’s a resource that would be helpful: https://webmasters.stackexchange.com/questions/111355/how-to-make-a-large-icon-appear-in-firefoxs-new-tab-top-sites Cheers
Hi,
I’m using Salient theme and I have configured the API key here (Salient > General Settings > CSS/Script Related > Google Maps API Key), but the Google Map doesn’t work.
I have generated a blank page just for map here https://www.monowheel.bike/map-test/ Information > Wordpress 4.9.7 > Salient theme v.8.5.3 > API Key looks like this AIzaSyB7R_ei-YhdX_WLZWAbEXXXXXXXXX
Hey poom_laupat, I’m currently unable to access that URL (leading to 404) can you verify that it’s correct?
Thanks
Oh sorry, the post truncated the “enter” so the “Information” shifted up to the URL. The actual URL is
https://www.monowheel.bike/map-test/No worries poom_laupat 
I’m not seeing any errors in the browser console – if you’ve already verified that no third party plugins you have active are causing it, please either reach out in a private message with your admin credentials or open a ticket with the same on the forum so we can take a look at the backend closer https://themenectar.ticksy.com Thanks
Hi Guys,
Is it possible to have a full width header layout with a centered logo, menu items left justified, and social icons right justified?
Thanks!
Hey cwayneboss,
Unfortunately there’s no layout option like that currently – some custom development would be required. However i’ve noted the idea on the wishlist 
Hey sorry sent the same message from a different account but…working on the blog for my page and wondering how to get a page something like this http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-agency/blog-masonry-boxed/ How does one choose what posts are what size squares or rectangles? As in some posts are big squares and some are even the full width? Also this seems to have the masonry with the zoom turned off…how do you do that? Thanks again
No worries pvictor4! I answered your other comment in regards 
Hi there, love your stuff. Was wondering if you have any WordPress themes that have Sketch design files included?? Thanks!
Thanks skeslassy! Unfortunately we don’t offer any themes with sketch files as of now
Hello, the Nectar Slider Background video is not loading in Chrome. I checked the format and the htaccess file but this does not help. It works in Safari and Firefox. Please help.
Hey althaua,
Firstly please ensure you’re on the current release of Salient (8.5.6) – If you are, kindly share your URL in regards so I can assist
Hello, I am on an old version (5) but I can’t update it – whenever I try to update the entire website goes to chaos…
Hey althaua,
If you’ve cleared your cache and still see that issue, could you provide a testing URL so I can take a look at what’s going on?
Thanks
Yes, sorry for the delayed reply – I responded to an email with the url but I just realized it didn’t post. Here it is: www.upupweddings.com
Hey althaua, can you kindly provide a screenshot of what you’re referring to and also let me know what browser you’re viewing on? When checking on my end I can’t immediately notice anything out of the ordinary https://imgur.com/a/bVJvSXF
Hi, yes. Everything works correctly in firefox and safari but in Chrome the video does not load – there is just a black box. Here is a screen capture of what it looks like in Chrome: https://imgur.com/a/k3v1jpe
Hey althaua,
if you can’t update to the latest version and the video loading is your main issue, it can be fixed by editing the nectar_slider_display function within the functions.php file. Within that, edit this line:
<video class="slider-video" width="1800" height="700" preload="auto" loop>';to be
<video class="slider-video" width="1800" height="700" preload="auto" loop muted>';
Cheers
I simply want a single image to be linkable.. when hovered I would like a slight white opacity. I dont want to use a portfolio. Is there a simple setting such as this? youll see here:
1. http://neat.cloudaccess.host/#gallery (1st column – this links but dooesnt have a white opacity hover?) 2. http://neat.cloudaccess.host/#gallery (2nd column – only first image works but it wont work for the rest) 3. http://neat.cloudaccess.host/#gallery (3rd column – works but doesnt fit the image!
Please help
Hey alisonleon,
If you want to use the image element inside of the page builder and define the link within it, simply use this css
a:hover > .img-with-animation { transition: all 0.3s ease; }
a > .img-with-animation { opacity: 0.6; }
That route would be easier than trying to set the image as a background on an empty column since that won’t have height by itself.
Hiya, thanks. I am a little unsire exactly how to set this up. 1. Where does this code go? 2. How I am setting this up in a page builder.. Am I using a ‘single image’ or soething else?
Hey alisonleon,
1. the code goes into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab – make sure when copying and pasting that no extra tags get pasted in
2. It’s targeting the single image element within the page builder, so just use those and add your link into the single image element settings with the “Image link” field
Hello,
We would like to put the Project categories under the title in the project-attributes pages just like in the portfolio page.
Portfolio Page: http://spa-automovel.com/portfolio/ Project Attributes Page: http://spa-automovel.com/project-attributes/bmw/
Hey datkis,
That issue is resolved in the current beta (with the actual release just around the corner). If you’d like a copy of the beta now, please reach out in regards via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar Cheers
Hello, Can you possibly tell me how to add the Project Excerpt on the Full screen zoom slider? It currently just has the project name and ‘View project’ This would be very helpful as you can describe what the project is about.
Hey jones_creative23,
That would require modding the nectar/tinymce/shortcode-processing.php file in regards at the “nectar_recent_projects” function
Cheers
Been using your theme for a while. Now adding a new page using image comparisons and they are doing something weird. The handle drags behind the image change and then catches up after. The don’t sync. Is there a fix to this?
Hey jedininja007,
That sounds pretty strange – could you kindly share the URL so I can see what’s going on there?
Thanks in advance 
Could you tell me how to reduce all the soace around the text on the reverse side of the flip box? Im not sure of this is margin or padding but theres so much sace around the box of the text… Thanks
Its this area here that ive found on inspect element (changing padding from 60 to 30px.. I cant seem to work out how to put this into the custom css?
.nectar-flip-box .flip-box-back .inner, .nectar-flip-box .flip-box-front .inner { position: absolute; left: 0; width: 100%; padding: 30px; outline: 1px solid transparent; -webkit-perspective: inherit; perspective: inherit; z-index: 2;
Hey alisonleon,
use this in regards:
body .nectar-flip-box .flip-box-back .inner, body .nectar-flip-box .flip-box-front .inner {
padding: 25px;
}
1. Thakns very much. Can I also reduce the line spacing and font size for the text inside the flipbox on reverse?
2. Is there some quick code to keep all the boxes exactly the same minimum size?
Hey alisonleon,
Use this:
.nectar-flip-box .flip-box-back .inner { font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; }
2. Unfrotunately that would require custom development
Yo! In my page im setting text colour to light in page header settings (for transparent menu). I have my row font colour to light also. So I assume my transparent header text / logo should all appear LIGHT version…however, they are showing as dark version…..It only shows the correct light header when I set to full page screen rows….this has never been issue before..ideas?
Yo ladydekade, could you kindly share the page URL in regards so I can take a closer look in order to help out?
Thanks in advance
Hey babe. Managed to resolve it.. I don’t know how haha!!
Glad to hear ladydekade
