I have a some hug bugs and on-going problems with salient. Has anyone else had the same? I also get little / confusing help from their support team. Right now, I would really not recommend this theme.
Hey Jonathanhydebarnes, I’m sorry to hear you’ve been facing issues. I just looked through your latest ticket earlier today and responded in regards
Hello,
I was curious if you could point me to where I can edit the secondary nav file so i could add an email sign up form. I’m wanting to add a button that when someone clicks the user is presented a form to sign up for a list. I don’t believe I can do this by simply using the menu item.
Thanks,
Hey mo-digital-team, as of v10, the location of that is includes/partials/header/secondary-navigation.php
Do you remember where it was located on v8.5.5?
Hey mo-digital-team, in that version it would located directly inside of the header.php file, which is at the root of the theme directory
Cheers
Thanks so much! I had one other question. Our theme for some reason is listing our published posts out of order. So it has Jan 10, Jan 7, Jan 5, Jan 4, Then Jan 11. Do you know why this might be?
Thanks!
Hey mo-digital-team, that’s quite strange – have you verified that no third party plugins you may have active could be causing it?
The latest update has messed up my headers. How do I get the header content to appear behind the menu?
I have tried to raise a support ticket but the support area is showing a 403 error
Hey lam09, I found the ticket you opened earlier on the support forum and have responded in regards
One of our clients is using Salient for the site and has some unusual characters in their menu, such as: collɛktiən and kɒntækt. I am in the process of moving their site to a new hosting company. The problem is, the new hosting company says that the characters are causing their servers to issue the following error “Mon Jan 7 15:04:55 2019 PHP Warning: shell_exec() has been disabled for security reasons in /var/www/vhosts/195/1064044/webspace/httpdocs/realm.ie/i.php on line 2”. They say it’s related to ImageMagick. It’s not a plug-in that I’m aware of so I can only assume it’s part of the the theme? Can you please shed some light on what the issue may be here? Thanks!
Hey MonologueHQ, for many years WordPress itself has made use of the ImageMagick library for the media editor https://make.wordpress.org/core/2012/12/06/wp_image_editor-is-incoming/ Can you confirm that the error you’re experiencing goes away when switching themes temporarily?
Hi, sorry for delay! When I preview the site using WordPress 2019 theme, the letters look as they should in the menu.
Hey MonologueHQ, could you kindly share the page URL so I can see the characters you’re referring to?
Thanks in advance
Thanks MonologueHQ, could you also kindly share a quick screenshot showing the difference in how the text is displaying without Salient/with Salient so I can understand exactly what you’re referring to?
Thanks in advance
How do I share screenshots here?
Hey MonologueHQ, you can use a service such as https://imgbb.com to quickly create some links, or you can send them via email via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar
Hi,
Here’s the two screenshots. One showing what it should look like and one showing what it looked like on the new host.
https://ibb.co/y8j9yVq https://ibb.co/61ZvrKQThanks.
Thanks MonologueHQ,
I requested those since I can’t see any weird characters appearing from the URL you’ve shared above: https://ibb.co/qCwDJM4 Is that not the URL to the new server?
Hey guys! So, when using the off canvas menu, the opacity of the menu links seems to be at .75 or something is there a way to change it to full opacity?
Thanks!
Hey vibestudios
add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
#slide-out-widget-area.fullscreen .inner li a,
#slide-out-widget-area.slide-out-from-right .inner .off-canvas-menu-container li a,
#slide-out-widget-area.slide-out-from-right-hover .inner .off-canvas-menu-container li a {
opacity: 1!important;
}

is it possible to have Horizontal portfolio filters on desktop and the dropdown filters on mobile? Thanks in advance!
Hey olliepb!
Unfortunately not without some custom modding as of now, but i’ve noted this idea for the wishlist 
Cheers
WooCommerce Product editing does not work. Can’t add the description to any old or new product. Something bad is with the editor after updating to the latest WordPress.
Hey damianbezak, Please open a ticket on our support forum in regards with temporary admin credentials so we can take a close look into this: https://themenectar.ticksy.com
Thanks in advance
Hello, i did not find any way to make contact in private (your webpage is just a logo). I have just been infected with adware/malware on all my sites running the Salient theme. The malware code has been injected to all the js files under themes -> salient -> js.
Running the latest version of Salient and Wordpress 4.9.9
I just want to add that i am not sure that it is salient that has a vulnerability but its only my sites with salient that has been infected.
Hey elektroarena, there are no known security exploits in Salient which would allow someone to edit your theme files to inject custom code. You can reach out privately via the contact form on my author page if you wish to share your URL that way: https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar I’d be glad to take a further look at the setup
Thanks in advance
ey Shakilali, please share your actual URL in regards so I can take a look at your setup. We’re using the latest WP on the eCommerce demos without seeing any issues with that element. Can you also verify that you do not have the “WooCommerce Blocks” plugin active? There have been reported issues with this plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/woo-gutenberg-products-block/
Thanks
Hi there,
I’d like to overlay a PNG bulb image to the Image Gallery (.nectar-slider-wrap:not([data-transition=”fade”]) .swiper-wrapper). The Previous and Next Arrow Buttons should be on top of it and the bulb should not be in the slide: the slides are moving and the overlay bulb is at the same position on top.
Could you help me?
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Hey Slenx,
this would require custom css – if you can provide your URL with the gallery I could provide an example snippet
Cheers
Is it possible to have the transparent menu on WooCommerce product pages?
Hey FrederikBaastrup, not at the moment since there’s no built in option to have a header section where the transparent navigation would be easily visible
HI, my site is live at https://npccomics.com/- I just installed the newest version on Salient, and know I ‘m having two issues:
1) there is a margin affecting all header sliders on the left. 2) Sliders on my woocommerce product pages appear in the missing of the page, after the product description. (https://npccomics.com/shop/menhit-the-mighty-1/)
Hey jhemp50, When checking out the page source it appears that the home page Nectar Slider is not contained within a page builder row – Please reach via the contact form on my author page with temporary admin credentials so I can take a closer look at your page setup from the backend https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar
Thank you, sent credentials in!
Thanks jhemp50 
Just updating to V10 and I notice you’ve changed the WooCommerce qty selector styling so it’s now in circles (previously it was in boxes on top of each other like this – https://pasteboard.co/HVq3Yti.png.
Is there a quick way to get the old one back? Is it just a CSS change or completely modified the qty template?
Hey Sean, that change came with v9 when the new eCommerce demos were released.
add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
https://pastebin.com/V8mk2ZMkAwesome, thank you so much !!
You’re welcome Sean 
Hello. Your theme is overriding our woocommerce checkout button. It has made the text the same color as the button BEFORE we hover over and click on it. Is there a way to get the text on the button to be WHITE before hovering!? Any help is greatly appreciated, thank you!
Hey nfrancis, if you can share your URL in regards i’d be glad to take a look and help out
Cheers
Might need to add something to the cart to see. The woocommerce button is all orange and I would like the pre-hover text to be white or a different color. Thanks in advance!
Hey nfrancis,
add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
body[data-form-submit="see-through"] button[type=submit][name="woocommerce_checkout_place_order"] { color: #fff!important; }
Cheers
thank you so much! this worked.
Glad to hear nfrancis 
Hey there. I’m having trouble with the Google Maps API key integration. All of a sudden, it’s not working on one of the websites that I’m building. I’m not doing anything different than the other websites that have Salient/Google Maps API integration. Have you guys come across any bugs?
Hey mattpavlick, can you please share the URL where the API key is not working so I can take a closer look?
Thanks in advance
Can I use the stand alone version of WP Bakery Page Builder or do I have to use the included version?
Hey JeffreySummers, if you opt to not use the Salient specific version you will miss out on the custom Salient elements/page builder UI
Hi, I have a problem today about google maps. The maps are not working now, only black screen. Is there any updates or something that I need to do? I have lots of maps on my pages, so this is important for me. Regards.
Hey kblyglr, can you please share your URL in regards so I can take a closer look? Are you also not able to see the maps on the demos? http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-promo/google-map/
Thanks in advance
Yes I can see the maps on demo. One of my pages: https://maltavista.com/ese-malta-dil-okulu/
Hey kblyglr, there is a javascript error occurring on your site related to google analytics: https://ibb.co/TBSbfvp could you please try removing that code for a moment to see if that’s what is prevent the Google Maps script from loading? If not, also try temporarily disabling the JS minfiication you have active so I can take another look
Thanks in advance
Hi, I have delete the code and empty the cache and tried but nothing happen about maps. Thanks.
Hey kblyglr, i’m still seeing that same code present on the page – have you added it back in?
Yes I have added back, because this code is important
If you need I can delete it, but this problem is not about the code I think, because the code was in my site from beginning.
I can delete again for your check if we do not have any other alternative?
Hey kblyglr, could you temporarily disable the JS minification that you have active so I can take a closer look?
Thanks in advance
Hi. Absolutely love this theme but I’m having a couple of problems when the page loads.
1. Firstly in between page transitions the page flashes white. When the transition animation effects are enabled this is pretty intense.
2. When certain pages load, such as the home page, there is a white bar that appears on the left half of the page before loading as normal.
Thank you in advance for any help given.

Hey alexbirks,
It looks like you have some custom CSS added which is causing #2 – please remove this to fix the issue:
.wpb_row.full-width-content {
margin-right: calc((100% - 100vw)/ 2) !important;
margin-left: calc((100% - 100vw)/ 2) !important;
width: auto !important;
}
Can you kindly enable the page transitions so I can take a look at #1?
Thanks
Hi the page transitions are enabled. The page swipes from left to right. Thanks
Hey alexbirks, unfortunately there’s no much that can be done about that – what you’re seeing is the browser window before the stylesheet is parsed which sets the BG color for the transition on the page. Are you seeing it occur all the time? On my end it’s only visible every few loads
I uploaded the Salient theme on my wordpress site. Following the instructions, I tried several times to import the demo Blog-Magazine but it does not work. It remains blocked at 0%. I’ve also tried with the XML file but it does not work anyway. I contacted the hosting technical support and have increased PHP max_execution_time and have tried again to load the demo, in vain. They told me that, probably, the problem is of the file and to contact you. Please can you help me?
I paid the renewal of technical support, I would expect, at least, timing responses. I’m losing hours of work and the hosting service can not help me. Perhaps, I should have chosen another theme. TICKET #1844586
Hey creativeradian, if the importer never starts, there is most likely a script/server error occurring. Since this isn’t a known issue with the current release, I’ll take a closer look into your ticket.
Can you clarify if you have never been able to import any of the demos since purchasing or if this is something new/specific to that demo?
Thanks in advance
Hi, was wondering if you might know how I can reduce the size of the individual product image on the single product page? Ticket #1830409
Thanks! Paul
Hey Paul,
I took a look earlier and responded 
Cheers
yes, fixed it perfectly! thanks!
