under the salient color options you have 3 extra colors than you have 2 extra color gradient options.. is there a way to add extra color gradient options? maybe instead of two maybe 3 or more options? thanks again!

Hey brianfreeman,

As of now this would require custom development, though we’ve noted your +1 for the idea on the wishlist :)

Cheers

I have the same problem as anagcan: A large grey space between the main menu and the first page element (nectar slider). Navigation by row id (anchor) works fine, but reloading the page (single page layout) makes the grey space reappear. What can I do?

Hey dominikwolff, please reach out in regards via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Message sent! :-)

Thanks dominikwolff :)

Still there is no option for “sticky header” logo (other then default or logo for sticky on mobile)...

Hey Cossi, please explain in more detail what you’re trying to achieve, i’m not quite understanding what option you’re looking for

After update 5.0, Demos are not working properly.

Hey rgbmango, could you please elaborate further are what you’re experiencing so I can help out? We’ve updated the live demos, are you referring to your own site? If so, please share your URL in regards

Thanks in advance

Here is the domain you can see. :) http://www.fedkausa.com/corner

Hey rgbmango, it looks like an internal server error is occurring – can you please check your server PHP error log, search for “fatal error” and let me know what it says?

Thanks in advance

Hello,

Did you remove floating labels from form styling options?

Regards.

Hey Gilbert1900, in version 9.0 we changed the minimal styling option. Unfortunately the minimal style had to be simplified to not rely on javascript to move the labels around/create the animation – it conflicted with many third party form systems and was general unstable. We added a new material form style in 9.0 though which you may like better than the minimal. If you disable the minimal option and use the material theme skin in the general settings tab, you’ll be able to see it: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/theme-options/form-styling/

image carousel doesn’t work :(

Hey zomewhere, have you tried to clear your browser cache? If so, please share your URL in regards so I can take a look and also let me know if you’re seeing this occur on the live demo as we updated those to the current releases yesterday

Hello,

I used to display the Nectar Slider in my home via index.php file. I placed a shortcode onde the file like this:

echo do_shortcode(‘vc_row type=”full_width_content” full_screen_row_position=”middle” bg_color=”#fcfcfc” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”center” overlay_strength=”0.3”nectar_slider location=”Home” flexible_slider_height=”true” full_width=”true” arrow_navigation=”true” overall_style=”classic” desktop_swipe=”true” parallax=”true” loop=”true” slider_transition=”slide” button_sizing=”regular” slider_height=”600” autorotate=”5000” min_slider_height=”700”[/vc_row]’

The slider is not working anymore. I believe I should register the script on my Home. How can I do that?

regards

Hey brenolara,

you would need to enqueue the slider script via a child theme. Here’s an example you can add to your child functions.php


function nectar_child_js() {
wp_enqueue_script( 'nectarSlider' );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'nectar_child_js' );

Cheers

Thanks selassie75

Hey ThemeNectar, i sent you credentials, did you received them ?

Hey selassie75, I responded to your email earlier today in regards. Thanks for your patience :)

Hi again Themenectar, I dont know where the grey bit underneath my header is coming from, how do i get rid of it? https://masterurbanresilience.com/home-2

Hey anagcan!

Could you kindly allow me to bypass the coming soon plugin you currently have active?

Cheers

Sorry Themenectar! I didnt realize that was active! thank you

Hey anagcan, no worries!

Are you just trying to reduce the highlighted space in red here: https://ibb.co/yfSRSGH If so, you can set your “header padding” to a lesser value in the Salient options panel > header navigation > logo & general styling tab. Try a value of “15” to start off.

Cheers

Hi,

Last night I updated to version 10 and 5.6 wp bakery. Before doing that my GTMETRIX score was 100 (page speed) and 94 (Yslow). I use the W3TC caching plugin, but since the update whatever has been changed has broken the minification settings. So currently, I am having to use the minification settings of the Siteground (host) caching plugin and the rest of the settings from W3TC.

The result of the broken minification (specifically the CSS minification) is that the site layout breaks. On a woocommerce page, everything falls under one column.

With regards to the Javascript, a lot of scripts don’t really work anymore. For example the nectar slider, the add to cart number in the main nav, the fancy tabs functions.

Before the update the W3TC was working fine, but now the settings seem too aggressive and it all breaks. Have you found the same on your demo sites?

The big problem is causes with GT Metrix scores is that now, I can’t use W3TC for minifying, it means I can’t use their defer parsing function and that is causing a low page score. Page speed and scores are critical as a ranking factor for us, so this is a big problem.

Can you let me know if there is a solution to what has changed? Or if you have any solutions in mind that I can implement?

Hey johnlmccurdy, I am currently not able to replicate JS minification issues with W3 total on the latest version: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-ecommerce-ultimate however I looked further into the css minification issue you mentioned with WooCommerce showing as a single column and can see that occurring. However, when I changed the theme to a default WP theme, I’m also seeing the same. So it appears to be a new issue related to WooCommerce/W3 css minification rather than the theme that’s active

Hello, can I use this theme with elementor? do you have any plan to add all the elements that available on elementor too?

Thank you

Hi, Thank you for the explanation.

Is there any way to change the backend portfolio label from child theme?

and I also would like to ask about the map, how can I change the leaflet maps style?

Do you have any plan for integrating mapkit.js or mapbox for this theme? because I did some research and I see they have a free tier plan

Hey vinr23,

1. Not as of now, however i’ve noted to make this possible in the next release

2. What specifically are you trying to style? If you’re trying to use new map tiles, this would require custom development

3. Currently there are no plans to integrate a third map solution into the core, but i’ve noted the idea on wishlist

Hi support,

1. Great, thank you!

2. I just want it to look similar to google maps or apple maps because it provides better looks.

3. Thank you! :D

Anyway I just submitted a ticket, there is an issue with the CF7 drop-down menu. The drop-down doesn’t work on the front-end, so I’m wondering is it a compatibility issue or there is something that I missed.

Also, how can I make the CF7 label to be inline layout? can I use the bootstrap columns? And if I may know what framework does salient based on?

Thank you

Hmm Wordpress 5 is not compatible my sites keep breaking!

Hey neilgalang, are you using v10 of the theme and v5.6 of the Salient WPBakery page builder? Those versions are required in order to use WP 5.0. Please check out the WordPress 5.0 article we wrote in regards http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/wordpress-5-0-update-guide/

also, i still can’t get video backgrounds to play on that homepage linked right above this comment. I’ve uploaded webm and mp4 and all settings on my server are ok.. they work fine on chrome/firefox but not safari

yes and they said its fine :(

but it works on all other browsers except safari.

Hey brianfreeman, could you kindly reach out in regards via the contact form on my author page so I can take another look at the backend? https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Thanks in advance

hi! with the new version 10 i can no longer find in the functions.php the wording to change “next project” or “previous project” where might this be now? thanks again for making such a great theme!

Hey brianfreeman, the new location is nectar/helpers/portfolio.php

Cheers

Hi Theme Nectar, After the update, once I’m mobile mode and try to use the menu, I noticed it’s showing also the secondary menu and was supposed to show only the main menu.

Thanks maurinoloureiro,

are you just trying to have the secondary menu display above the main nav instead of being added into the menu?

In the past, in the mobile mode, I was able to see the secondary menu on top, after scroll down it disappears and was showing only my logo and the Menu Icon, once clicking in the menu Icon it will be displayed only the Main Menu. Now the secondary menu disappears an everything went inside the menu icon: main + secondary. I would like to see as in the past.

Thanks for clarifying maurinoloureiro, 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: 690px) {
html body.original #header-secondary-outer, html body.ascend #header-secondary-outer {
    display: block;
}

html body #slide-out-widget-area .inner .off-canvas-menu-container.mobile-only .menu.secondary-header-items { display: none; }

}

Cheers

Have updated to WP 5.0, Salient WP Bakery VC updated to 5.6, all required plugins including Classic Editor installed, additional plugins are updated to latest version and cache cleared… but I’m getting Blank Pages when I try to edit a page. Also seeing an option for each page to “edit” or “edit with WP Bakery Page Builder”... both options lead to white page.

Also - can’t access Salient options page (blank page). - Portfolio page list displays list of shortcode text previews, click on edit goes to blank page.

Can accecs Widgets, Menus and install plug ins. But clicking “customize takes me to a 404 error page.

Currently activated plugins are *Central Color Palette, * Classic Editor, * Coming Soon CC, * Contact Form 7, *Envato Market, Font Customizer, * Google Analytics Dashboard for WP (GADWP), *Salient WPBakery Page Builder, *TinyMCE Advanced, *Yoast SEO)

Have tried in Chrome, Safari and Firefox …. all getting same result. Please help!

Hey, i’m glad to hear you have it partially sorted now – can you please reach out in regards via the contact form on my author page with a temporary admin login so I can take a closer look at the errors being reported? https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Thanks in advance

Will do, thanks!

You’re welcome LeanneKingwell :)

I noticed that my copyright year was wrong. I think it might be that it’s pulling from the year that the page was created, because the homepage is 2014 (https://www.sailboston.com/) but other pages have different dates (https://www.sailboston.com/app/). Not sure if it’s a bug or just me. I’m using the default settings for copyright in the footer.

Hey efitzpatrick,

This issue will be sorted in the upcoming minor release

Bug? If you activate ‘Full screen row’ option the ‘row id’ set in css stops working, With ‘full screen row’ option off, css set in the style.css work just fine. Salient v10.

Hey moth3r,

When using the full screen row option, the is gets moved to an attribute on the div as the full screen row “name” field on the row will become the ID. So to target it would be:

div[data-fullscreen-anchor-id="row_id"]
instead of
div#row_id

That’s actually a feature then! Thank you, it works as advertised!

You’re very welcome moth3r :)

is it possible to show menu item next to logo or add add button next to logo for mobile? usually you have logo and blank space next to logo…

Hey hereicome,

1. You can get menu items to display next to the logo by using the “Menu Left Aligned” in the Salient options panel > header navigation > layout related tab

2. Rearranging the mobile menu would require CSS as of now

Cheers

can you give some example of css on how to put some text that I can display a phone number?

Hey hereicome, you can add a phone number to your menu by using a custom link option in Appearance > Menus – are you just trying to position it in a specific location?

Hi,

I’ve followed the update guide and updated WP, plugin, and theme. I am stuck on the semi-white loading screen when trying to edit a page with the front-end editor. See screenshot: https://duaw26jehqd4r.cloudfront.net/items/2T1w0R011Z153X0A0K1O/Screenshot%202018-12-07%20at%2021.54.55.jpg

Some steps taken: 1. Deactivated all other plugins 2. Deactivated CloudFlare 3. Activated/deactivated block editor 4. Cleared browser cache

Hey bephuong, are there any javascript errors showing in your browser console? Please either open a ticket in regards on the support forum or reach out in regards via the contact form on my author page so we can take a look at your setup https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Thanks in advance
