Hi Guys,
So far I have been really enjoying developing my website using your theme. I have a couple of questions though regarding the translation and the responsiveness.
1. Translation: Is it possible to translate only the front-end of the theme (what the end-user sees) but leave the dashboard in english, using a free plugin like loco or poedit?
2.Responsiveness: how can I change the tablet and mobile menu? I would like a simple slide right or slide down instead of having like a 3d opening effect.
Thank you so much.
Regards, Anamaria
Hey Anamaria,
1. Yes, Salient includes a .pot file which can be used to generate a .po file in your desired language for translation of any theme strings. When using loco translate, in the plugin settings head to Themes > Salient > Advanced you can set the path to the .pot file. For the Template file field use “lang/nectar_salient_strings.pot”
2. You can select the style for the mobile menu in the Salient options panel > header navigation > off canvas navigation tab
Cheers
Hi, I’m trying to do some custom work on my blog page and footer but not sure exactly how to go about it. For the blog page I want it to look more like this: https://www.garyvaynerchuk.com/blog/ and I’m wondering is it possible to create the template with the WP page builder or do I need to build it from scratch.
And for the footer on that same page, I’d like something similar, but I think the theme’s settings prevent me from doing it. I tried using a one column footer setting in the theme settings and then using a widget to insert the various links and such to style with CSS, but it doesn’t allow me to create columns inside of the widget, it just centers everything on top of each other.
Hey Jarrel09, there’s currently no option to use the page builder with the footer – for now it would be easiest to handle this via a child theme to make the mods there.
Hi, is it possible to remove static project name in portfolio page? I would see project name appear only when I move my mouse over a image
Like this page: https://www.numa.pt/en/arq/ A portfolio page without project name. They appear only when you move the mouse over the images, and then put the images all at the same distance
Hey Noistudio,
Yes, Salient offers a few portfolio styles like that, you can see them all here: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-promo/portfolio/
You can select from any of those when editing your portfolio element in the page builder, or if you’re using the portfolio page template instead, they’re available to select from the theme options panel > portfolio tab
Cheers
Is there some css to remove the logo unless displaying the transparent header? Thank you.
Hey MarcGarner,
add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
#header-outer:not(.transparent) header#top #logo { opacity: 0; }
Cheers
Hi guys,
Can you please give me a suggestion on the following:
Please see the URL of a product: https://connectingbrands.pt/product/perrier-jouet-belle-epoque-rose/
As it is now, the product image fills 50% of the screen and since it is a vertical oriented image, it gets very tall. Is there a way to make it smaller? Like half of the size that it is now and align it to the right?
Thanks in advance.
Hey DigitSigma,
add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
@media only screen and (min-width: 1000px) {
.single-product .product[data-gallery-style="ios_slider"] > .single-product-main-image {
padding-left: 15%;
}
}
Cheers
Good morning,
That worked, thanks. 
You’re very welcome DigitSigma
Hi, Merry Christmas to all the team! I have one question, I use “Centered Logo Between Menu” but on the mobile device the “X” Icon no show me for close the menu. Just show me the same icon of toggle ≡ thanks in advance
Thanks a lot alandres! Happy holidays to you as well
Could you kindly share your URL in regards so I can take a closer look?
Thanks in advance
Thanks alandres
That’s how the “slide out from right hover triggered” style is intended to look – however, we have another style titled “slide out from right” that will add the X icon after opening. You can change to that in the Salient options panel > Header navigation > Off Canvas Menu Style tab
Thank you so much! Regards,
You’re very welcome alandres
Hi, love the theme!
Quick question, how do you remove the divider that displays when off canvas menu is activated?
Hey gdavz! Glad you’re enjoying the theme
Could you kindly share your URL in regards so I can provide the needed snippet?
Cheers
Thanks gdavz,
you could either switch to the “material” theme skin in the Salient options panel > general settings tab, or add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
body.ascend #header-outer[data-full-width="true"] header#top nav ul #search-btn a, body.ascend #header-outer[data-full-width="true"] header#top nav ul .slide-out-widget-area-toggle a {
border-left: none;
}

How do i remove sidebars all together on specific posts and not others. I’ve tried to do it with code and plugins but all i can get a blank sidebar section instead of a fullwidth post.
My goal is to have some posts (resources) have fullwidth layout with no sidebar and a sidebar on my regular blog posts.
Hey Egaffin,
You could also change the layout by adding the following on each post you desire to be full width via the custom css box inside of the WPBkaery page builder (top right gear icon)
body .post-area.span_9 { width: 100%!important; padding-right: 0}
Or you could write a conditional snippet to enqueue that CSS on every single post with a specific category etc via a child theme functions.php
Hi support, i tried to embed my jotform into a page but its not showing, any idea ?
thx stef
<script type=”text/javascript” src=”https://form.jotformeu.com/jsform/83596293817371”></script>

Hey selassie75, glad to hear you sorted that.
Cheers
How can the TAG Cloud widget be limited to lets say the last 20-30?
Hey Lock45, Salient doesn’t provide a custom tagcloud widget – it just offers styling for the default WordPress tag cloud, so there’s no additional custom control via Salient to assist with that. That being said, you can handle this via a filter from a child theme functions.php file
Cheers
Hello!
I would like to add a title tag to the images in an Image Grid nectar gallery, though I don’t know the correct php file to look for the a href tag. Below is the tag the a href is located in. Hopefully this will narrow it down.
20px;”> <!-/vert-center—>*It’s also “work-item style-2” if that helps.
Thank you.
< div class=”work-info” style=”opacity: 0;” > < a href=”http://battsmedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/bmg-event-photo-4.jpg” class=”gallery magnific” >< /a >
< div class=”vert-center” style=”margin-top: 20px;” > < /div >< !-/vert-center—>
< /div >
Hey cwayneboss,
The file you’re looking for is located at: nectar/nectar-vc-addons/vc_templates/vc_gallery.php
Cheers
Hi there! Hope your having an amazing holidays. Question… how can I add a GIF on the navigation bar as a logo? Thanks for your time and support
Thanks a lot rasheedny, happy holidays to you as well
If you upload a GIF image for your logo in the theme options panel, it should already work and preserve GIF animations as well. If it’s not for you, please share your URL in regards so I can take a look
Cheers
Hey there! How can I apply the underline effect animation on the sub-menu text?
Thanks
Hey tovbar,
there’s no option for that effect on submenu items, but i’ve noted the idea on the wishlist to create a theme option for it
Cheers
I see. Can you please provide a Custom CSS code meanwhile? Thanks
Hey tovbar,
add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
#header-outer header#top nav >ul ul li a { display: inline-block; }
#header-outer header#top nav >ul ul li a:after {
transition: transform .3s ease-out,border-color .3s ease-out;
position: absolute;
display: block;
bottom: -6px;
left: 0;
width: 100%;
-ms-transform: scaleX(0);
-webkit-transform: scaleX(0);
transform: scaleX(0);
border-top: 2px solid #000;
content: '';
padding-bottom: inherit;
}
#header-outer header#top nav >ul ul li a:hover:after {
transform: scaleX(1);
}
Hey there! It works great, but there are two issues: 1. There is still black background when h-hover (I tried to remove the background color in the Salient Options -> Dropdown Background and Dropdown Background Hover, but nothing happens). 2. There is still some blur black shadow box around the sub-menu.
Screenshot: https://prnt.sc/m0xrmn
Thanks!
Hey tovbar,
add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
body[data-dropdown-style="minimal"] .sf-menu >li >ul { box-shadow: none; }
header#top .sf-menu li ul li a:hover,
html body[data-dropdown-style="minimal"] #header-outer:not([data-format="left-header"]) header#top nav > ul > li:not(.megamenu) ul a:hover {
background-color: transparent!important;
}
Hey! 1. fixed. 2. There is still blurred black shadow box.
Thanks,
Also: I can still see the black a-hover on the sub-menu page. For example, if I enter to home2 (which is under “home”) I can still see it.
Hi, still waiting for your answer. Thanks.
Hey tovbar, do you have your site on a staging site yet so I can take a look?
Hey, not yet. I can’t upload the site that way 
Hi… still waiting for your answer.
It’s only a transperent black a-hover…
please
Hi guys,
I have an issue with the product carousel. When I add it to the page, it’s not loading. The loading icon keeps spinning and nothing happens.
I’m adding the “Normal Product Carousel” template from the selection you provide. As far as I know, I have the latest version of the theme installed as well as the plugins.
URL: https://connectingbrands.pt/page-with-carousel/
Could you please let me know what’s wrong there?
Thank you
Update: Same happens if I don’t use the enable pagination option. For example I want to show only the first 8 products without pagination. It does the same.
Did anyone had this problem?
Hey DigitSigma,
It looks like there’s a fatal error occurring. Could you kindly check your server PHP error log for any fatal errors and let me know what they say?
Thanks in advance
Hi guys,

Not sure if this is relevant or not. I’ve changed the folder name of the theme from Salient to Connectingbrands and the theme was auto-updated to the recent version.
Please let me know what can be done?
Thank you so much in advance.
Thanks DigitSigma, it looks like this may be a conflict with the “WooCommerce Blocks” gutenberg addon and WPBakery page builder. Could you kindly verify this by temporarily deactivating the “WooCommerce Blocks” plugin?
Good morning,
Yes you are right. I disabled the WooCommerce block plugin and the pages that are mentioned before are working as expected.
I didn’t realize that I had this plugin to be honest. Must be something installed with the WooCommerce plugin.
Thank you so much for your help.
Glad I could help DigitSigma

Hi, it’s been a week i sent you message on your mail but still no reply from you guys?
Hey astutestudio,
The last email I can see from you was received on the 11th of this month, which we responded to on the 12th – if you’re referring to another email, unfortunately I’m not seeing it on my end. Can you let me know the exact date you sent it?
Hi, i sent email from different email with subject “Website Links” on 23rd Dec, now i sent same message through your profile form, hope you ll get it and reply.
Hey astutestudio, I just replied to your email in regards. Thanks for resending it.
Cheers
Thank You! it helps …
Glad to hear astutestudio
Hi,
Regarding Contact form, the styling hasn’t work from dummy data and I have tried to insert this code as described (http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/importing-contact-form-data/):
<label for=”your-name”>Name</label> [text* your-name] <label for=”your-email”>Email</label> [email* your-email] <label for=”your-subject”>Subject</label> [text your-subject] <label for=”your-message”>Message</label> [textarea your-message]
[submit “Send Message”]
It still doesn’t appear to work.
http://www.nyskaparna.se/kontakt-2/Can you please fix this for me? (You have my login credentials.)
Cheers, Mr. Cross
Hey Mr. Cross,
I’m seeing that your URL currently has a 3 column layout, which is what the demo data provides. Are you just trying to change the style of your fields? If so, they change depending on the theme skin you have active and there’s one additional override settings in the Salient options panel > forms styling tab
Cheers
Hi again,
If you look at the page, the styling is completely off and doesn’t match your dummy data styling . Please have a look to begin with.
Salient options doesn’t seem to fix it.
Please do assist.
Cheers, Mr. Cross
Hi again,
But the margins and colors look off if you look at www.nyskaparna.se/kontakt-2.
It doesn’t even look close to http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/importing-contact-form-data/ or any of the options at http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/theme-options/form-styling/.
Don’t understand. How is this fixed? What is the solution to the problem I am having with the contact form styling?
Cheers, Mr. Cross
For instance, try to select minimal and it doesn’t change and the colors, margins, alignments etcetera are off. I want it to look like the Minimal or Material skin, but it isn’t working.
Cheers, Mr. Cross
Hi,
I am having same issue when I made the latest WordPress update. And that visual composer is not working anymore. I didn’t add any plugins … Only this change update I made which appears on the admin panel dashboard.
Thanks for your amazing support anyway
Hey grandoka
Have you verified that you have the latest WPBakery page builder installed as well (v5.6)? This is required in order to use WordPress 5.0 http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/wordpress-5-0-update-guide/
If you already have the latest version installed, please reach out in regards via the contact form on my author page so I can take a look https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Hey gojapantravel, could you kindly share your URL and provide more specific details as to what you’re referring to?
Is it possible to scroll to full screen rows without the ‘add anchors to url’ option enabled? When I try to add anchor to link it doesn’t work unless this option is turned on, but we don’t want them added to the URL automatically.
Hey teenhype90210,
As of now there’s no option to have the scrolling functionality linking to specific sections without showing the anchors in the URL, similar to regular page anchors
Hello -
Just updated to latest version of Salient and now Nectar Slider ignores any height settings for the slider itself, and buttons sizes are not being set.
The height issue is related to the “Flexible Height” setting, with that unchecked, the set height is then respected.
As for the buttons, this rule is overriding the sizing rule:
.nectar-slider-wrap[data-full-width="false"] .swiper-slide .button.transparent a {
padding: 8px 15px !important;
}
Hey viablethought,
I just added the fix into the current beta for the button sizing when using a non full width slider, however I have not been able to replicate the flexible height issue. Could you kindly share your page URL in regards so I can take a closer look?
Thanks & happy holidays
