Hiya, I’ve recently updated from Salient 7.0.8 to 9.0.1 to fix the Contact Page Map issue. But I have now run into another issue: my image galleries don’t display on the blog and news pages, but they do in the live preview of 7.0.8. Any idea what’s going on? My website is: https://therfieldpreschool.co.uk
Cheers, Joe
Hey Joe,
We added in the fix for that into the current beta release of the theme – if you’d like a copy before it goes live, please reach out in regards via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Hi, I sent you a message. Just confirming whether you received it or not
After updating to WooCommerce 3.5 i have following messages.
Your theme (Salient) contains outdated copies of some WooCommerce template files. These files may need updating to ensure they are compatible with the current version of WooCommerce. Suggestions to fix this:
Update your theme to the latest version. If no update is available contact your theme author asking about compatibility with the current WooCommerce version. If you copied over a template file to change something, then you will need to copy the new version of the template and apply your changes again.
What is the solution ? Do you have any new theme updates ?
Hey proearthanimal,
That update was just released and we will be releasing an update soon to remove the warning. However, we’ve checked the differences in all the files listed and the changes should not have any negative effect on your shop in the meantime as the changes were minor
Thanks 
You’re welcome proearthanimal 
I think I have located another bug with the new theme. I have imported eCommerce Ultimate and edited an Variation product by adding 2 variations and images. I changed Single Product Gallery Type: Bottom Aligned Thumbnails Alt in the Salient Settings. The problem is that all variation images are blurry until you hover over them or click on them.
Example: http://test.peterstavrou.com/product/v-neck-t-shirt/Also, is it possible to remove that hover effect completely?
Hey peterstavrou,
1. You need to edit your “Main image width” to be larger in the Customizer > WooCommerce > Product images: https://woocommerce.files.wordpress.com/2017/12/imagefeature.png?w=712
2. If you wish to disable the hover zoom, Add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab
.single-product .images .flickity-slider .slide {
pointer-events: none;
}
Cheers
I have the following woothemes templates out of date, eventhough I downloaded and am running salient 9.0.1. How can I get these updated?:
salient/woocommerce/checkout/form-checkout.php version 2.3.0 is out of date. The core version is 3.5.0, salient/woocommerce/myaccount/form-login.php version 3.4.0 is out of date. The core version is 3.5.0, salient/woocommerce/single-product/product-image.php version 3.3.2 is out of date. The core version is 3.5.0,
Thank you!
Hey genm,
They just released the 3.5 update and Salient will be releasing an update soon to fix that – though from my testing those template files should not cause any issues to your store for the time being. If you’re encountering any new problems, kindly let me know 
Thanks in advance
FYI – there is a small bug in your Icon List element. If you create a list and for one of the list items, for the text content if you add a link (which works fine) but add target=”_blank” to the href tag, it deletes the entire contents of the field and displays nothing. Without the target, it works fine. Not sure if Salient-specific or WP-Bakery issue. But wanted you to know.
Hey co50,
Unfortunately that wouldn’t be possible as of now given the WP limitations on shortcode attributes. The icon list text content is saved as an attribute “text” on the shortcode which you can see when going into the classic editor view. When you try to add an attribute on the anchor, the quotes won’t be able to save correctly
Hi,
Is it possible to use an image for the menu background and to be even more specific, is it possible to have a menu background image for mobile only?
Hey Micatuca,
That would require custom custom CSS as of now
Hi – is the Salient theme compliant with W3C accessibility standards?
Thanks
Hey jwebadgility, Salient has not released a targeted update to ensure 100% compliance with that yet. However you can use a plugin such as this to help in the meantime: https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-accessibility/
Hey NADIZAJN, If you’ve verified that no third party plugins you may have active are causing the issue could you kindly open a ticket in regards via the support forum with your admin credentials so we can take a further look into this?

Hi Salient team quick question, what is up with my www.doguni.gr website which seems to have a css problem(some parts missing or moved to the right), that was created recently without changing any code line. We are fully updated with the theme. Please me answer me here i am planning to renew my support but it is top urgent to have an answer until my developer renews the support by the end of the week. I appreciate it to so much . Thanks Let me know please in a few words. Iasonas.
Hey iasonasperp,
When checking out your source code, i’m noticing something off which is causing the issue: https://ibb.co/hJcrkq there’s a line break tag:<br />that has all the attributes which the body tag is supposed to have. Once you remove the line break tag and get those attributes back to where they belong, the problem will go away. If you have not modified the theme files, check to see if any plugin you have active is adding that
Cheers
Ok it seems a google analytics tag manager is the issue that was recently installed, but i don’t know how i can make it sure that this is the problem, how can we resolve this issue without uninstalling the plugin if possible. Otherwise do you think if we uninistall this plugin the problem with the
will be over ?
Lastly in what ways you can help with this is issue and at what cost ? Thank you . Cheers.
Hey iasonasperp, is this the plugin you’re using so I can test on my end? https://wordpress.org/plugins/duracelltomi-google-tag-manager/
Hi , thank you for your response, yes this is the plugin that might caused the issue with the
.
Hey iasonasperp, thanks for confirming – in the plugin settings, which option do you have selected for “Container code placement”
Hey ThemeNectar, the 3rd option : Codeless injection (no tweak, right placement but experimental, could break your frontend)
Hi guys any news for the codeless injection ? is this not right ? Which option is best for Salient theme ?
Hey iasonasperp,
I would use the custom option to ensure that conflict does not happen – the line you need to add into the header.php is pretty simple
<?php if ( function_exists( 'gtm4wp_the_gtm_tag' ) ) { gtm4wp_the_gtm_tag(); } ?>
If you need assistance, kindly open a ticket in regards via the support forum https://themenectar.ticksy.com
Cheers
Hey ThemeNectar,
I did what was asked, I have one question , is the placement of this line of code right? See the picture below to see the exact line placement. https://ibb.co/G9Qfx4Mthe website is doguni.gr Just Let me know Thank you so much Cheers
Hey iasonasperp,
Yes, that’s the correct location 
Cheers
Dear ThemeNectar,
Thank you for your help and your support
You’re welcome iasonasperp 
Hi! I´m trying to trigger off canvas menu from a main menu item, is that possible?
Hey WeboCreativo,
Not as of now without modding the init.js file located in the js directory. A new selector would need to be added to the click event for the OCM

Hi, i have a problem with my site where i’m actually using “Salient”: sometimes the <nav> disappear, but without a logic, i can’t understand, can you help me??
Hey Sinaptic_srl, kindly share your URL in regards so I can take a look to help out
Thanks in advance

Have you tried to disable the option “Header Hide Until Needed” in the Salient options panel > header navigation > animation effects tab?
Cheers
Thanks a lot
You’re welcome Sinaptic_srl 
Hello guys, does anybody knows why “Hide Featured Media on Single Post” in Salient->Blog settings doesn’t have a switch/button so i can turn it on/off? I tryed to “reset section” but nothing changed. Same thing with “Hide Sidebar on Single Post” and “Enable Sticky Sidebar”, no switch 
v 9.0.1 with wordpress 4.9.8. On a second look, the same situation under menu Salient-> Blog-> Functionality, nothins else except social media options can be enabled/disabled: Author’s Bio Automatic Post Excerpts Post Navigation Links On Single Post Page
NO on/off switch 
Hey bogdan_stanciu,
In 9.0.1 we’ve verified that some third party plugins will hide those buttons in the Salient options panel – try disabling yours to find which one is causing it. This issue has also already been fixed in the current beta release, so if you’d like a copy of that before the next release please reach out in regards via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar
Cheers
Hi, thanks for your response. You were right, in my case the crazy plugin was: WooCommerce – Country Based Payments
Hey bogdan_stanciu, glad to hear you’ve located the issue 
Dear Themenectar Team, While editing my wordpress website which uses your Salient theme I found that the Salient Page Builder Plugin has a conflict with the newest version of the Yoast SEO Plugin (9.0). While Yoast SEO is activated the Page Builder is not working, once turned off, it works. I wanted to inform you about it. Hopefully this issue will resolve
Hey philsim90, I haven’t been able to replicate this locally – can you verify that you’re also using a current Salient WP Bakery page builder plugin (5.5.2)? If so, please reach out in regards via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar
thanks in advance
It is working again, now that Yoast SEO updated to Version 9.0.1. Thank you and have a great day!
Glad to hear philsim90 
Hi Themenectar,
First of all thank you for this beautiful theme,
I just have one question; I’ve installed Scrybs plugin to add another language to my site. Everything was fine until I saw the mobile version. Translations doesn’t work on the mobile site. Why might that be?
Thanks
Hey sercanyavasoglu 
Could you kindly share your URL in regards so I can take a look?
Thanks in advance
Scrybs refunded my money since it’s not working on my site. What is the best way to add a second language to Salient theme?
My URL: www.kayi.com.tr
Hey sercanyavasoglu,
We’ve tested locotranslate/WPML to ensure compatibility. Please check out the docs here in regards: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/translations/
Thank you

Hey AlexanderMJ 
Is that error showing on your dashboard after updating or does it appear when attempting to update and fail?
Hi – is there a way to remove the category menu option when going from the desktop menu to the mobile nav, while using the mega menu? I have my mega menu in 4 columns. 2 columns of links pertaining to category 1, while the other two pertain to category 2. When viewing on mobile, both category 1 titles show up and become redundant. Could you let me know if there is a work around for this? swingtidehealthcare.com
Hey noantsinmypants,
You could hide one of the columns when viewing on mobile, however you can;t easily take the menu items out of that column and add them into another without custom modding. Add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab to remove the secondary columns:
#slide-out-widget-area.fullscreen-alt .inner .off-canvas-menu-container .menu >li:nth-child(2) ul.submenu > li:nth-child(2),
#slide-out-widget-area.fullscreen-alt .inner .off-canvas-menu-container .menu >li:nth-child(2) ul.submenu > li:nth-child(4) {
display: none!important;
)
Cheers
I’m not sure that would work out as I need the options within the mega menu to be available in the mobile nav. Is there a way to assign a different menu for the mobile/hamburger menu than is different from the main nav? I tried to assign the other pull-out menu to it, but it just added it to the menu instead of replacing. Any more thoughts that may work?
I also didn’t say thanks for teh previous response. So thanks!
Would there be a way to have the sub menu items on the mobile menu auto expand? Rather than be collapsed?
Hey noantsinmypants,
If you enable the off canvas navigation you could assign your desired mobile nav to it and then with css, it could be hidden on desktop and also made so that it’s the only menu used for mobile. When you enable that and assign the menu, kindly let me know so I can provide the css
Cheers 
Ok. How do I go about doing this? I assigned my mega menu to the top nav (as I would like to have as the main menu for anything desktop related. From there, I turned on the Off Canvas Navigation (pull out from right – separate dropdown…) but do NOT have the Off Canvas Menu Mobile Nav Menu Items turn on, as that would essentially assign the Mega Menu options to it, correct?
If you go here –– https://tinyurl.com/ybqzdfnh –– and try the menu on Mobile, you’ll see the duplicates under the Solutions option. Vendor Lifecycle Management and Technology Business Operations are duplicated. If you reference the menu on the desktop version, you’ll see why I have them duplicated as an option. Basically for formatting purposes as the second option is hidden on the desktop mega menu.
Any solution or workaround would be great. Thank you a lot!
Update: I found the “Manage Locations” on the menu area and assigned the off-canvas menu to be the mobile version. So as of now, I have the Mega Menu just as it was for desktop and then I created a new mobile menu that is assigned to the off-canvas menu. Which this fulfills my needs.
I also went ahead and adjusted the CSS to hide the off-canvas option when over 10000px and hide the main nav options with anything under that value.
Except the only way I could figure out how to hide the main menu options on mobile was to assign .mobile-only class with a display:none.
My question is: Is there anything else that this css adjustment to mobile-only would be affected? Will it not display anything else or is the class mobile-only ONLY for the navigation?
Hey noantsinmypants, glad to hear you got it almost sorted out now 
To ensure that the snippet will never accidentally target something else, just make it a little more specific:
#slide-out-widget-area .off-canvas-menu-container.mobile-only {
display: none!important;
}
Great. Thank you!
You’re welcome 
For some reason Yoast isn’t recognizing my image gallery on my pages. It says there aren’t any pictures: https://www.screencast.com/t/8IUAEoQyb7
Is this something I should be concerned about? It looks like Google might still be seeing the images, but I just want to make sure. I want my SEO to be where it needs to be.
Hey pogle2,
Google will still see your images, but I would be curious to take a closer look at your page to see why Yoast isn’t scrapping the page correctly – could you kindly open a ticket in regards via the support forum with your admin credentials so we can take a further look into this?
https://themenectar.ticksy.comThanks in advance
