Hi,

on this website: https://www.salescyclegroup.nl/ when I enter 5 star at a testimonial it only shows me 4 stars max. How to fix this? This happens as well when I select 4.5 stars.

Best regards, Tes

Hey Abbenhues :)

I’m currently not seeing star ratings added into the testimonial section titled “Wat anderen zeggen over Salescyclegroup” on that page. Are they located on a different subpage?

Hi, I set them on hidden again because they weren’t showing the right amount of stars, but I just turned it on again for ‘Mark Roeloef’ testimonial on this page: https://salescyclegroup.nl/programmas/grow-jaarprogramma/

You see 4 stars but I set the stars on 5.

Thanks!

Thanks Abbenhues, Add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab to fix this before the next release


.testimonial_slider:not([data-style="minimal"]) blockquote span.star-rating {
  font-size: 16px!important;
}

Cheers

Hi there, On this page I’ve a section with two columns of icons and text. After shrinking to less than 1000px width it’s shown as one column. On mobile this is really nice, but on Ipad (landscape or smaller screens compared to laptop/desktop) the layout isn’t that nice. (see this url on smaller width: https://esb.kleidi.nl/) Is there a way to solve this f.e. to get also two columns between bigger as iphone width but smaller as 1000px?

Hey Abbenhues, you can use the “Tablet column width inherits from” option for your column when editing the column responsive options https://ibb.co/kOYFW9

Great guys, thanks! Love the theme!

You’re very welcome Abbenhues :)

hi guys,

i am having an issue on mobile devices with the background video. Half the screen shows a video but half the screen is the cover image. any idea why this is happening? looks fine on a desktop view.

Hey bachuramadhikari,

Please share your URL in regards so I can take a look

Thanks in advance

That is the link, Look at the header in a phone

Hey bachuramadhikari,

That was fixed in the 9.0.1 release

Hi, how can I change single post to full-width? Blog Type is set on “Masonry Blog Fullwidth”, but single post is in container.

Thanks

Hey stefanomaxis,

Add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab


html body[data-ext-responsive="true"].single-post .container-wrap.no-sidebar .post-area,
body.single-post .container {
  max-width: none;
}

Cheers

.body.single-post .container breaks blog_next_prev_buttons block.

I’ve added also: .post-area .content-inner { padding: 0!important; } .blog_next_prev_buttons { margin-top: 0!important }

to make it more similar to page

Hello, I have an Animate CC animation on my homepage but it not seems to be responsive on mobile devices. How can I accomplish that?

No I did not change anything. It does scale fine on a desktop computer the problems seem to occur when viewing it in landscape on an iPad. I did set ‘Make responsive – Both’ but did not set ‘Scale to visible area – Fit in view’. Would that be the problem?

Hey Sieber-nl, could you try setting the option to “Scale to visible area” and see if that sorts the issue?

Still no luck. The image is still overlapping the second column.

Hi!

I was trying to rename Portfolio and Projects text around website and was able to change it as you suggested in other comments. But only one place still remain with original Projects title: it’s a navigation links Next Project and Previous Projects.

Pls could you give me quick tip how to change that particular text location.

Thanks a lot!

I tried many option but I don’t see what exactly should I add to custom url slug? Is there any special taxonomy slug to get project-category displayed?

After using custom post permalink plugin – I was able to SEE only full url with category incl BUT all portfolio items are empty and I get 404 error. Even if url visible /custom slug / category / post name but actual project page always empty.

After plugin deactivated – all looks good again but not category slug in url.

Thanks!

Hey SiamNinja,

Sorry about that – I didn’t realize that plugin had not been updated in a few years, here’s another one which is current :)

​I’m using Trellis (https://roots.io/trellis/) stack​ on a multisite.

Starting with Salient 9+ I’m having issues with some of the assets being loaded for the theme options. The particular issue is that the absolute path is being added to the URLs erroneously.

For the demo importer images this has always been an issue, but that was easily ignored (even an issue on non-multisite Trellis install). But now I’ve figured that the same issue with the absolute paths is what was breaking the demo importer.

I’ve narrowed the issue down to how the URLs are generated in the two files here in this directory: /salient/nectar/redux-framework/extensions/vendor_support

I tried to fix it myself, but it would require overwriting core theme files.

The fix is something like this: extension_vendor_support.com around line 53 and field_wbc_importer.php around line 49

if (is_admin()) { $this->extension_url = str_replace('web/','',str_replace(str_replace('/web/wp/','', get_home_path()),'',site_url( str_replace( trailingslashit( str_replace( '\\', '/', ABSPATH ) ), '', $this->extension_dir ) ))); } else { $this->extension_url = site_url( str_replace( trailingslashit( str_replace( '\\', '/', ABSPATH ) ), '', $this->extension_dir ) ); } And replace field_wbc_importer.php line 43 with: $this->demo_data_url = str_replace('web/','',str_replace(str_replace('/web/wp/','', get_home_path()),'',site_url( str_replace( trailingslashit( str_replace( '\\', '/', ABSPATH ) ), '', $this->demo_data_dir ) )));

Please see if you can make another release that addresses this issue. I’m sure many people use Salient on the Trellis stack.

Hey allurewebsolutions, Yes, sorry for the confusion – the version numbers got switched up because we were forced to release an earlier update specifically for WooCommerce. The next release is the one containing the bulk bugfixes/new features. The release is slated for less than a week now, but we can still get you the beta ASAP if you would like it.

Yes, please send it to me. I wrote you guys from the author page about it 1 month ago, but didn’t get a response. I just wrote again.

Hey allurewebsolutions, sorry about missing your original email – just sent a copy your way.

Cheers

In the Team Member widget (Style: Bio Shown Fullscreen Modal),

Is it possible to have a button that opens the modal? I’d like to have a button directing the user as well as having the profile photo open the modal.

Is this possible and if so what URL/class do I use in the button VC element?

Thanks

Hey jadecreative,

Unfortunately the only way to trigger it without custom JS development would be through the regular image link for the element. I’ve noted your +1 for the idea on the wishlist though

Cheers

Hi, Does this theme support Paralax AND side dot navigation at the same time like it is in this theme link https://demos.pixelgrade.com/rosa/

Hey tzvimoshe,

When using the dot navigation in Salient, each section will be scrolled to in a different manner http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-product/

Cheers

Hi there, I’ve got a compatibility/bug report: the main podcast page seems to break when using the Seriously Simple Podcast plugin, setting it to show podcasts in the blog feed, and using a masonry layout. It gives the error:

Uncaught TypeError: $blog_containers[i].isotope is not a function at o.<anonymous> (init.js:15081) at o.t.emitEvent (imagesLoaded.min.js:7) at o.complete (imagesLoaded.min.js:7) at o.progress (imagesLoaded.min.js:7) at imagesLoaded.min.js:7

Not sure if this is better reported to you or the SSP team (or the WP Bakery one?). Feel free to let me know if you want.

NOTE: This sort of page /had/ been working. I only just noticed it had stopped working after some recent update.

Hey scallemang, 9.0 added further checks to ensure scripts don’t get loaded when they’re not needed – when the plugin you’re using is set to display on the blog archive, it must be altering the WP post type for the blog page as well. To fix this issue now, you’d need to remove the check in the functions.php file to verify that script is only loaded on the blog archive. Change this:

$nectar_on_blog_archive_check = ( is_archive() || is_author() || is_category() || is_home() || is_tag() ) && ( 'post' == $posttype && !is_singular() );
to this:
$nectar_on_blog_archive_check = ( is_archive() || is_author() || is_category() || is_home() || is_tag() );

Fantastic, thank you for your help. Hmm… I guess it sounds like such a specific conflict that there’s nothing to be done. Unless somewhere down the line Salient wants a theme option to unlock blog-like functionality to other post types?

FWIW, here’s what they’re doing with the ‘podcast’ post type per their docs:

“This setting may behave differently in each theme, so test it carefully after activation – it will add the ‘podcast’ post type to your site’s main query so that your podcast episodes appear on your home page along with your blog posts.”

You’re welcome scallemang :)

I’ve noted to look into an easier workaround.

Cheers

Hello, looking through all the nectar shortcode icons but cant find the icon package [icon color=”Accent-Color” size=”regular” image=”icon-mobile-phone”]. Do you know which icon package this is?

Hey ponchovogel,

That’s located in the font awesome library

Cheers

Hello! Maybe you could give me quick tips.

How I can make my checkout page in one column? I am selling digital products and need quick short form only.

Thanks a lot!

Thanks, but unfortunately only Billing info become one column but Order details and payment option stayed in 2 column layout and now appear on right side of screen and left half is empty.

Would be great to make one column layout for Billing Info and then below full wide Your Order info and payment button.

I want to add side bar on payment page so I want to see checkout layout in one column on the left and custom content sidebar on the right.

thanks

Hey SiamNinja,

Change the initial snippet I provided you to be this instead:


.woocommerce .col2-set .col-1, .woocommerce-page .col2-set .col-1, .checkout .col2-set .col-2 {
    width: 100%!important;
}

Cheers

hi, after update theme and salient visual composer plugin, option to color overlay background image don’t works, can help us? thanks

Hey CAPBCN, if you’ve already cleared your browser cache after updating, kindly share the URL so I can see what’s going on

Thanks in advance

Hello Team,

I have updated Salient theme for one of my client and after the update it breaks their home page, As on the home page they’re using Parallax Background.

It’s zooming in a background image instead of showing the original size as before.

I think it’s because of transform: translate3d effect, it’s done like that, Can you please let me know how to make minimal changes to the current theme or function file to get back to normal? As image is large when someone scroll down it give feeling like background image is jumping little bit.

Any input or suggestion would be more helpful.

Thanks for the awesome theme.

Hey princebhalani143, the option for the custom scrollbar was removed since it was a long deprecated option that caused a huge performance hit. What browser/browser version are you currently using? All modern browsers should support smooth scrolling by default

Thanks for your reply, I am talking about smooth parallax scroll as of now parallax image is jumping little bit when we’re scrolling as I have tested in Mozilla, Chrome, Sarafi, IE, Edge all are updated with latest version. Can you please have a look as I am looking for same result as before so both Parallax images come same as before as of now image is coming as little bit zoom.

Hello Team,

Still waiting for some solution from your end :)

Hi! Is it possible to center my footer content on mobile? Thanks! f.e.: https://esb.kleidi.nl/

Hey Abbenhues,

Add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab


@media only screen and (max-width: 1000px) and (min-width: 1px) {

#footer-widgets .container .col {
    text-align: center;
}
.ginput_container.ginput_container_email, #footer-outer #footer-widgets .col input[type="submit"] {
  width: 100%!important;
} 
}

Cheers

Perfect!

Cheers Abbenhues :)

Hey sinayes,

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

With the latest version of Salient there seems to be a bug with the Search Products widget – http://prntscr.com/l3dsui

I’m assuming the button is supposed to be inside the “Search product…” box.

Hey peterstavrou,

Can you kindly share your URL so I can take a look at your theme settings in order to replicate that?

Thanks in advance

Here is a brand new install for testing.. http://test.peterstavrou.com/

It happens when using the eCommerce Ultimate template

Thank you peterstavrou, I can now see that it’s isolated to the product search widget when supplying a widget title – this will be fixed in the next release. To sort it for now, Add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab


div.widget.woocommerce.widget_product_search form { position: relative; }

Cheers

Hi is it possible to have extended responsive design on specific pages. I would like to have one page (contact ) wider compared to my other pages. Thanks!

Thanks awesome!

Perfect! Only my footer is really wide as well now. Is it possible to exclude this section?

Hey Abbenhues,

Change the snippet to the following :)


@media only screen and (min-width: 1500px) {
.page-id-26 .container.main-content {
    max-width: 1400px;
}
}

Hello!

In recent Visual Composer update there is option to make any raw Sticky. How I can do it?

I want to make raw with button sticky to bottom on selected pages.

Thanks a lot!

Last question: I was able to fix it with CSS but cannot get row float on top of footer even with maximum z-index 1000 for my div and raw.

I found solution, so all good. thanks

Glad to hear SiamNinja :)

Hello @themenectar! All of the sudden, my video is not displaying video via desktop. On a chrome browser, it shows a static image of the video. On Safari browser, my video header doesn’t display a video. It’s an empty grey space. Please advise.

Hey creationstudios, because the video is not playing when accessed directly on the server (outside Salient) in Safari, I would suspect that your server is not setting a mime type for mp4. Check out this resource for adding them.

Hi Team,

I am bumping my head against the wall. Salient is not playing in safari for me. I tried mime, updating theme, adding code in htaccess- nothing is work. Please advise. :)

Hey creationstudios, I’m still unable to load the direct video stored on your server in Safari. i.e. pasting this into the URL bar: https://www.mostlysunny.co/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/Los-Angeles-Influencer-Marketing-Agency.mp4 that will be the case whether or not Salient is the active theme. When accessing a mp4 directly in the URL bar, it should be able to play: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-corporate-2/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/615170811.mp4 I you add that source into your page for a test mp4, it will also play in Safari when used as a video BG
