Hi, love this theme! Is it possible to make default project configuration settings for the portfolio post type? That way i don’t have to edit them each time i create a new portfolio entry.

Hey Square_Contrast,

In the file change this line:
$fwp = get_post_meta($post->ID, '_nectar_portfolio_item_layout', true);
to be:
$fwp = 'enabled';
and this line:
$hidden_featured_media = get_post_meta($post->ID, '_nectar_hide_featured', true);
to be:
$hidden_featured_media = 'on';
Cheers

Hi, as of version 10, this doesn’t work anymore. Does updating the theme overwrite the single-portfolio file? Or are there changes made to the theme dat makes this code obsolete?

Hey Square_Contrast,

Theme updates always override the current version of the theme files – to have modifications persist through updates, the file would need to moved into a child theme

Cheers

​Hi,

I am about to purchase your theme again for a client and had two questions with regard to the extended licensing and paid customizations.

  • Regular vs Extended licensing: My client runs an online academy – part of the content that will be featured on the website will be free and accessible to any website user. There will be a component of content that is gated and available only to paid subscribers. We are planning to host the course content on LearnDash LMS. Do we still need to purchase an extended license for Salient?
    • Paid customization services: If we require certain customizations that are not possible/available freely, would it be possible for us to ask for you/your team to carry through these customizations at a cost? ​ Please let us know. Thanks

Hey sanjchappalli,

1. I believe you should be able to use a regular license for that – I will double check with Envato if you haven’t reached out to them already in regards

2. We are not personally available for freelance development, however we recommend users look into Envato Studio: https://studio.envato.com/

Cheers

Hey there, I checked with Envato and they deferred to you guys. So a regular license it is. Thx again.

No worries sanjchappalli :)

The sidebar widget lineicons aren’t showing up on certain pages.

Showing here: https://www.demo.michellecmurphy.com/teambuilding/ Not showing here: https://www.demo.michellecmurphy.com/scavenger-hunt/

What can I do to fix this? Thanks!

Hey michellecmurphy17,

1. Try adding this into a child theme functions.php file:


function nectar_child_theme_font() {
  wp_enqueue_style('iconsmind'); 
}

add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'nectar_child_theme_font');

2. Change the snippet to the following:


html body.material #header-outer:not(.small-nav) header#top .sf-menu > li.sfHover > ul {
 top: 70%;
}

Cheers

Both of those worked perfectly. Thanks a bunch!

Glad to hear michellecmurphy17 :)

Hello, I updated the theme to the newest version for my website and now the footer is out of wack. Everything is showing in 2 columns and not 3. And the Copyright is off too. What do I do?

Hey AlainaLewis, please share your URL in regards so I can take a look to help out

Thanks in advance

Here you go! http://the21daybrand.com/ Thanks in advance!

Thanks AlainaLewis ,

It looks like there’s an unclosed HTML tag in one of the widgets which is causing the display issue – since I can’t currently replicate this on my end using the latest theme version, could you please reach out in regards with temporary admin credentials via the contact form on my author page so I can inspect the backend closer? https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Thanks in advance :)

Hi, where is the option to have the off canvas menu close when you click an anchor? On Mobile it just scrolls to the spot but you have to manually click the x to close the menu. Thanks

Hey ceteamclut, please share your URL in regards so I can take a look at your settings to assist

Thanks in advance

We have created a website with Salient theme and Event Calendar Pro plugin. Is there a way to bring “Recent Events” in the same design as “Recent Posts” in WP Bakery element that Salient is providing?​

Recent Posts is only showing the post, can I bring in the events too?

Hey brightsword,that would require some modding to call the template parts used in the blog loop for a CPT

Hey guys, I LOVE your theme (and have purchased 2 licenses so far)! Just curious, do you have any plans to add Elementor support at some time in the near future?

Hey PeterHoppe, glad to hear! :)

We don’t have plans for that, however the frontend editor in WPBakery page builder is going to be added into Salient this month :)

Oh cool! That will be good :)

Cheers PeterHoppe – also if you’d like to test the beta of it, please reach out in regards via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar :)

Hi, is it possible to make this slider change slides by using mouse scroll? http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-slider-portfolio/

Thank you in advance!

Hey Sebest,

Unfortunately not as of yet without custom JS, however i’ve noted your +1 for the idea on the wishist :)

Cheers

Just updated Woocommerce. This message appear:

Your theme (Salient) contains outdated copies of some WooCommerce template files.

How to resolve this?

Thanks shahrirh,

1. The account icon link is defined by you in the theme options panel > header navigation > layout related tab. Make sure you’re including the full URL with http:// rather than a relative link

2. If you could provide a URL I’d be glad to take a look at your settings

3. Are you able to replicate that on the live demo as well? http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-ecommerce-ultimate/

1. Great! Working well now.

2. https://www.oneheartprint.com/blog-updates/

3. Please refer this https://youtu.be/ZNxa_zvw5Xs

Hey shahrirh,

2. I’m seeing a javascript error originating from outside Salient on that page: https://ibb.co/b7igiV could you try to temporarily disable third party plugins to see if it’s coming from one of them?

3. Just for further clarification, can you only get to occur when autorotation is enabled?

Hello I have had this theme for some time now but for some reason 4 columns footer is not working it shows everything in one column also when I add show product list widget to footer it show super big product images instead of small one is there a fix for this. thanks

Hey krazy4sales,

The plugin you have active “buddypress media” is adding CSS that’s causing that – to correct it without disabling the plugin, Add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab

#footer-outer .col.clear-both {
 clear: none;
}

Cheers

Thanks for the fix.

You’re welcome krazy4sales :)

Cheers

Hi ! I realise that it would also be nice to have Vimeo / Youtube / Tumblr / Medium / Behance with the social media widget in addition to instagram. Cheers

Hey fantome_in,

Thanks for the requests :)

Hello, i can’t see te logo on my website www.cesenatico360.it . When i change the dimension of the logo, the header grow proportionally in dimension so it seems that the logo is under something..can you help me? maybe the format png is wrong?

Hey balz21,

It looks like there’s some CSS causing that issue however I can’t track down the exact source of it since you have minification on. If you’d like an immediate fix without disabling the minification, Add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab


body #header-outer .row .col.span_3 {
    visibility: visible !important;
}

Cheers

Thank you so much, it works!

Awesome to hear balz21 :)

Hello, is it possible to hide the prices of my products on the shop and the product category archive page? I only want to show the prices on the individual product pages.

Thank you in advance!

Hey philsim90,

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

.woocommerce-page:not(.single) ul.products li.product .price, .woocommerce:not(.single) ul.products li.product .price
{
 display: none!important;
}

Cheers

I am having a problem with a chat box on my site that’s conflicting with the full-page-swipe page transitions.

Anytime you click the chat box in the bottom right hand corner to open it, it triggers the page transition … Any ideas how to stop that?

https://tinyurl.com/yctgk9lg (chat box appears on the bottom right after 10 seconds).

Hey SeanAUS120,

Have you tried to update to the current version of Salient? As of 9.0 the page transition function was reworked and should not trigger accidentally on JS buttons like that

Cheers

Updated to 9.0.1 now it’s working !! thank you very much.

Glad to hear SeanAUS120 :)

My Page Builder or Visual composer is not working and showing. I do have the Page builder button but it is not doing anything when i press it. Can someone help me with this problem?

I just purchased a second license for Salient and for a reason I cannot understand my first one does not work! I have contacted support at least 3 hours ago and I don’t have the luxury to wait until Monday to get back to work! Please help

Hey despinaexad,

I will take a look into your ticket(s) in regards

Hello ThemeNectar,

I updated the theme and Wordpress and then I lost the left menu options icon for Salient. Any suggestions on how to get it back? Thanks.

Hey dzmond,

I am taking over a client that is using Salient, they have implemented many changes directly in the theme. Is it possible to get access to Salient 7.6 when buying the theme? That would make my job finding the changes they have done and move it to a child theme a lot easier (Would be able to run diff on files I see have been modified).

Hey jarledb,

We can provide any theme version you need via email – if your client already has a license, just reach out in regards with that and we can send you a copy without you having to purchase a second one.

Cheers

Hello,

There are a few issues I am having -

I am trying to change the ‘Next Project’ and ‘Previous Project’ text on locotranslate with no luck. I have translated the strings in the default.po and salient-strings.pot file, but they are not showing up on the browser?

Please see: https://www.awesomescreenshot.com/image/3703334/db500e0ec920bed689dba7fff1397e44

Are these the right files? Because I have highlighted where it says these files might be overwritten upon update. But I have searched for the string in the other files and cannot find it. I also tried to create a translation of my own, but could not find the string.

Secondly I am using a plugin called user gallery: https://www.sypac.designofeden.co.uk/members-gallery/

The theme is preventing my search results in the gallery to 12, rather than letting the plugins settings dictate the amount of results. The developer of this plugin has said that there is these lines:

if(!function_exists(‘change_wp_search_size’)){ function change_wp_search_size($query) { if ( $query->is_search ) $query->query_vars[‘posts_per_page’] = 12;

return $query; } }

Is there a way to disable this in the settings? Or if not can I delete the function in my child theme?

Hey Utopia_Creative,

1. You need to create a new .po file based on the nectar_salient_strings.pot file – Loco Translate > Themes > Salient > Advanced you can set the path to the .pot file. For the Template file field use “lang/nectar_salient_strings.pot”

2. Add this into your child theme functions.php file:


function change_wp_search_size( $query ) {

  return $query;

}

Cheers

Hi Guys, thanks for your reply, number 2 is great.

1. I have followed your instruction and it still will not show up.

Is there anything else I’ve missed, or another approach?

I’ve used locotranslate before without issue, but must be doing something wrong on this!

I created a new .po file and set the Template file field to “lang/nectar_salient_strings.pot” translated the strings again, but they don’t show up.
