Hello. To make a H1 header on my homepage you suggested to use a background-image instead of the Salient Slider.

However, when I try to use a full-height background image it does not align properly. Please see the difference between https://www.goedeshampoo.nl/ and https://www.goedeshampoo.nl/test-home/ Notice how the test-home the banner is too high (it runs of the screen) and it is not scaled to the screen. Is there a way to correct this?

Hey dzineee,

That’s occurring because there’s an extra html element inside of the main content area and the full height calculations are different from WPBakery if the row is not the first child of the parent – v9.0 has added a fix for that though. 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

Hello. We prefer not to use any beta versions. Is there any way we can currently fix this? Is there another way to re-create a full height banner with H1 header and button in the middle?

Hey dzineee, the update will be out within 24 – 48 hrs – other than updating to the new release, it would require some modding as of now

Hello I’m looking back on this old comment from 3 years ago and wondered when this will actually be added to Salient theme.

Hey – the next update will allow the option for a caption in the vc gallery lightbox but as of now it would take some custom development”

__

I would like my image lightbox to display the title with the cation underneath but currently is seems there is no way to do this.

Thanks

Hey alexbirks,

The description should show up if you’d set it in the image Caption field in the right hand “Attachment details” section when editing your gallery images. If you have it set and it’s not displaying, please share the URL in regards so I can take a look

Cheers

Hi

I need some help please

I am using the Material theme skin on my setup, but not getting the sf-sub-indicator arrows to appear for drop menus that have drop downs.

How do i enable these to show up and if i can change the position from right to left?

Also if it is possible on the mobile menu?

Many thanks in advance

Hey ermjud,

1. The material skin doesn’t add them by default – however the next release is adding that option :)

2. You can enable dropdown arrows on the mobile menu in the Salient options panel > header navigation > off canvas navigation > “Off Canvas Menu Dropdown Behavior”

Cheers

Is it possible to reduce the line spacing for the icon and text using the unorderd list?

Hey alisonleon,


.nectar-fancy-ul[data-animation] ul li {
    margin-bottom: 0;
    line-height: 20px;
}

seems like your theme is not compatible with Essesntial grid, its a hugh problem for me, i need a fix ASAP

when i click the image, the lightbox not working. everything is set up correctly so it should work. and btw, also revolution slider is not compatible. static layer are aligning right and not center.

Hey zivrol, can you kindly share a URL in regards so I can take a closer look at your settings in order to assist?

Thanks

plz look at:

1. the revolution slider logo, is align right 2. the gallery in the bottom of the page http://eatbar.rol.co.il

Hi,

WP admin looks messed up as soon as i activate the Salient theme. How do i fix this? I run on the latest WP and Salient versions.

Hey nickfranssen, 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 in advance

I’m using the WP Bakery recent posts feature to display 3 recent posts on my homepage. How do I move the post title, meta data, excerpt to above the featured image for each of these recent posts?

Hey bakercreative,

That would require modding to the nectar/tinymce/shortcode-processing.php file – once inside, do a search for “nectar_recent_posts” to end up at the right location

Cheers

Hi, I’ve found the section and tried editing it but with no luck as PHP is not my strong point. If I renew my support with you guys and raise a ticket, will you be able to show me exactly what to change? Thanks

Hey bakercreative,

Unfortunately we’re not allowed to provide custom PHP work even with a support pack – however it would only take a few minutes to get done so you could find someone on Envato Studio to handle it for a reasonable price :)

Cheers

Presale question: does the template support videos and images in gallery? Can the gallery have filters?

Hey dubLeE,

The portfolio element would need to be used in order to have filters, which means each project has to be created separately via the portfolio post type. There is a project style that offers a video lightbox link, but not a video playing directly within the portfolio grid

Cheers

Based on what you explained, if I wanted to display 20 images then I would have to create 20 projects?

Hey dubLeE,

Yes – each item would be a separate project in the portfolio post type

Cheers

Hello! Could you tell me please how can I put a Mailchimp signup form to my Salient landing page (Startup template) correctly. The problem is that a placeholder which is inside a box doesnt appears. I spent many hours trying to fix it but failed. I guess something wrong with CSS. Thanks

Hey bayadzhan,

Have you ensured that in your Salient options panel > form styling tab that the Overall Form Style is set to “Inherit from theme skin”? If so, please share your URL in regards so I can take a look to assist

Cheers

Dear ThemeNectar Team, thanks a lot! That works!

Glad to hear bayadzhan :)

I have secondary nav social icons enabled however the icons aren’t showing up. Also, the footer. Any insight as to how to fix this is appreciated. Thanks! https://beloitmattress.com/

Hey carnavat,

It appears that something else in your setup is loading a copy of font awesome from: https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/font-awesome/4.7.0/css/font-awesome.min.css?ver=4.7.0 and dequeing the version in Salient – it could be a plugin. If you disable that and allow the default theme version, the issue should resolve.

Cheers

Hi, what do I have to do to get single blog post pages to display the full/large image in the body of the post instead of the cropped/blurry one it is displaying now?

You can see an example here: https://photosnorway.com/oh-its-such-a-perfect-day-by-clivemetcalfe/ Thanks!

Hey directlink,

When inspecting your page it looks like you have a WP gallery placed in the post set to 3 columns (which is causing the smaller width). If you want to display your featured image at the top of the post change the post format to Standard and ensure that the option is off for “Hide Featured Image on Single Post” in the Salient options panel > blog tab

Cheers

Thank you! That was the issue. I used a plugin to bulk convert all posts to “standard” instead of gallery and that worked. Much appreciated.

Glad to hear directlink :)

hi on http://gastromallorca.net/pav/ the navigation bar on mobile dosent work we have sub elements in productos > adoquines > hermetico, for example in desktop works fine, but on mobile you click productos and goes back to home, all so the logo on mobile is not clickable. thanks.

hi, i have a iphone SE and in Safari dosent work, looks with 18px, not 13px

Hey dimage, I just tested on that model using browserstack and am still seeing 13px as the active value: https://imgur.com/a/FGlK4tU – have you tried clearing your browser cache recently?

hi, strange still not working correctly for me, still showing 18px, thanks for looking at it, maybe is my mobile

How can I add this slider http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-slider-portfolio/ to the top of my page and below other page content plase?

Hey Cossi,

That’s created using a recent projects element set to “Fullscreen zoom slider” for the project style. You can also find it within the Salient Studio: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/salient-studio/ Cheers

Hello, I have a bug on my site, in hotspots on mobile screen. When you click on the button ”+” it’s open on the top of the page And your example it’s open on center

Hey Carcanha, when inspecting your page I’m still seeing the old snippet added with the extra space – 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

Cheers

It’s working! Thank you very much :D

You’re welcome Carcanha :)

Sorry one last question.. Flip box hover… when I hover it shows text which is great but can the text be able to have more area on the left and the right? Currently there is alot of space left and right of the text so its not giving me enough srea to write something… http://neat.cloudaccess.host/#clients If you scroll down to day the 5th column, lasrt row (turtlemat) youll see what I mean…. but id like this across all the flipboxes?

Hey alisonleon,

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


.nectar-flip-box .flip-box-back .inner, .nectar-flip-box .flip-box-front .inner {
    padding: 30px;
}

Cheers

Great thank you :)

You’re welcome alisonleon :)

Is it possible to make the icons smaller when uning the Fancy Unordered List? Can I use a cistom colour also?

Hey alisonleon


body .nectar-fancy-ul ul li .icon-default-style[class^="icon-"] {
   color: #000!important;
   font-size: 12px!important;
}

I’m trying to build a website for travel like this: https://www.cazloyd.com/en it needs certain features eg;

  • Header needs to be bespoke + carry telephone number and a button for enquire
  • Mega menu with 4 columns
  • It needs grids of images that are mixed, eg destinations + experiences, ideally these needs to be pulled from pages (not posts)
  • Needs a testimonial slider
  • Needs a bespoke map with multiple points and routes
  • Website needs to be super fast (Jupiter and Salient are very quick)
  • Need to be able to pull teams to homepage (or any page)
  • Needs to be able to put a slider on multiple pages
  • Needs to be able to have a grid of images as a header on multiple pages
  • Needs breadcrumbs
  • Advanced search facility eg by post type, destination – travel type etc

Does your theme support all this? – if not could it with bespoke work?

Rich

Hey Rich,

1. You can use a custom navigation link to add a telephone number into the main navigation and also turn specific nav items into a button although the button styling is a regular nectar button instead of a full color block like in your link: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/header-button-links/
2. http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/mega-menu/
3. You can make image grids via the image gallery element, but you have to add the images in manually rather than having them pulled from pages
4. http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-promo/testimonial-slider/
5. That would require custom development – refer to Envato Studio in regards

6. Thanks

7. There’s a team member element

8. You can

9. You can using the image gallery element http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/galleries/ 10. Salient is compatible with the breadcrumbs from Yoast

11. That would require custom development as well

Hi guys,

How do i redirect users from one page to another if they are using a mobile device. i.e. if a person wants to see my homepage “home” i want to redirect them to “mobile home” if they are seeing it on a mobile device

Regards

Hey bachuramadhikari,

That’s not a core feature WordPress offers – you would need to use a plugin in regards: https://wordpress.org/plugins/equivalent-mobile-redirect/

Hi, I have YITH WooCommerce Ajax Product filter as you recommended but it’s not showing up on mobile – please advise.

Thank you

Hey tricks28, ensure that you have a widget title set for your filters – on mobile view the widgets condense and use the widget title to toggle the visibility of each

Perfect – thank you

You’re welcome tricks28 :)

Would you guys mind sending me the beta :)? Emailed a couple times
