Hi there,

The shape divider is leaving a 1px gap on certain screen sizes. Is there some way of forcing it to overlap slightly as it is quite distracting?

Screen grab here:

Thanks Elliot

it only appears on certain screen sizes if you cant see it resize the window and it seems to appear. (happens to appear on my clients macbook screen size)

Thanks Elliotj,

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


body .nectar-shape-divider-wrap {
    bottom: -3px;
}

Cheers

Hi,

I have the following message in my log: 2019-01-30T23:10:31+00:00 CRITICAL Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function nectar_get_theme_version() in /home/boxbal/domains/boxbal.nl/public_html/wp-content/themes/salient-child/functions.php:6

Everything is working fine I believe. Yet I have installed te latest version of WordPress and WooCommerce and installed version 10.0.1 of the Salient Theme

Thanks for the assist.

Hey helldog2004, that function exists within the parent theme and was added in v9.0 – Could you kindly open a ticket on our support forum in regards with temporary admin credentials so we can take a closer look into this: https://themenectar.ticksy.com

Thanks in advance

Hi ThemeNectar, thanks for replying. You can disregard my last message, this error log seemed to be from last year and was fixed after updating the theme to the newest versions. Thanks.

Glad to hear you sorted that helldog2004

Cheers

We presently are using Salient Version: 7.0.8. We want a search feature on the top menu. I have looked everywhere possible in your Salient Options Panel to find where to turn this feature on or off and cannot locate it. Can you please tell me how do we get “search” on our top menu – I’ll take a magnifying glass – a search bar something anything. We have tried both skins Original and Ascend and cannot locate the “search” to put on our top menu. Please Advise. Thank You.

Hey meruth101, please verify that you don’t have the option checked for “Remove Header search” in the Salient options panel > header navigation > layout related tab. If that’s not the case, kindly share your URL so I can take a look.

Thanks in advance

Thank You so much for those directions – I was able to get “Search” turned on. Is there a way to turn it off for the top header part and have it on for the Secondary Navigation Menu part (does that make sense?). Thank You.

Glad to hear meruth101,

Unfortunately there’s no option to add it to the Secondary header instead of the main navigation at this point – this would require modding to the header.php file

Cheers

Hi. Is it possible to have a nectar slider in a widget? If I add the nectar slider to a page and then copy its code from the lassic mode and paste it in a text widget within a sidebar, all the CSS is missing. How can I do it (if so)?

Hey squizzo,

You would also need to manually enqueue the Nectar Slider css/js via a child theme functions.php

e.g.

function child_theme_assets() { wp_enqueue_script( ‘nectarSlider’ ); wp_enqueue_style( ‘nectarslider’ ); }

add_action( ‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘child_theme_assets’ );

Cheers

All fonts gone weird on most browers, seems ok on google chrome (mac) but all other browsers not usng ciorect fonts for titles, menu headers, buttons etc, upper case when should be lowercase etc. Been using this theme for years, havent had this issue. Can someone tell me what is happening? Extremely urgent?

Also, have selected dates to show on portfolio in settings, but dates still not showing?

Hey alisonleon,

1. Checking your site in Chrome/Firefox/IE on my end, I can’t see any difference in the typography. Can you please provide a screenshot?

2. Please provide the page URL in which you’re using the portfolio so I can take a look

Hey!

On my site (my-copenhagen.dk) i have a top bar, that disappears when scrolling – how does i make it stay, rather than hide?

Mvh, Magnus

Hey Magnuspil, I can’t seem to access that URL at the moment – can you confirm it’s correct?

Thanks in advance

Hello guys.

I can see that my projects have a extra padding in mobile browsers, How can I fixed? Please see here:

http://davidolivera.com/production/el-principio-de-la-historia/

Regards. :)

Hey carlos_lavlav :)

When editing the small 1/12 columns you have on the right/left sides, select the option to “Hide on device” for mobile. Alternatively, you could 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) {
.full-width-content.vc_row-fluid .wpb_column.vc_col-sm-1 { display: none; }
}

Cheers

Oh my lord! It take me a never ending clicking research! Thank you (a lot)!

Glad I could help carlos_lavlav :)

Hi guys, is it possible to hide the scroll bar but have the hability to scroll?

Hey LuisVoronov,

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


::-webkit-scrollbar {
    display: none;
}

html, body {
    scrollbar-width: none;

}

Cheers

Thank you so much, works perfectly.

Glad I could help LuisVoronov :)

How to disable “Page Transitions” for a specific page? I’m having a script conflict. thank you!

Hey luxerman, are you using the AJAX or Standard transition method in the Salient options panel > page transitions tab? Could you also share your URL in regards so I can take a look to assist?

Thanks :)

Yes, I’m using the standard transition ( ON ) from the options panel.

I’d like to disable the transition on a specific page.

Hey luxerman,

add this into the custom css box located in WPBakery page builder (top right gear icon)


#ajax-loading-screen { display: none; }

Solid theme, Thank you! Any chance you will integrate real estate features to display properties and search?

Thanks Ewanbenoit :)

As of now there are no plans for that, but i’ve noted the idea on the wishlist.

Cheers

Do I need wordpress premium to use salient? If so which one should I get looking to build just simple portfolio ?

Hey lessthanrichy, no you only need to use the WordPress.org version, which is free and allows for third party themes: https://ithemes.com/tutorials/wordpress-com-vs-wordpress-org/

Hey guys, love your work! I’m getting mixed content issues on the “next/previous post” sections at the bottom of my blog pages. The background images are actually coming up as http:// rather than https:// – not sure if anyone else is getting this issue? “post-bg-img”

Hey ceeeeeeeeej,

You could sort that by either using a plugin such as https://wordpress.org/plugins/really-simple-ssl/ or by adding this into a child theme functions.php


add_filter('wp_get_attachment_url', 'honor_ssl_for_attachments');

function honor_ssl_for_attachments($url) {
    $http = site_url(FALSE, 'http');
    $https = site_url(FALSE, 'https');
    return ( $_SERVER['HTTPS'] == 'on' ) ? str_replace($http, $https, $url) : $url;
}

Cheers :)

the horizontal list item is not a table. I wish you had better support for tables.

Hey guy23, thanks for the request – are you just looking for a table element within the page builder?

For years your customers have asked for a modal popup window. It seems every theme on themeforest has this very basic feature. Why haven’t you added it? Are you not updating this theme anymore?

Hey guy23,

Salient v10 was just released in December, which was one of the largest updates to date http://themenectar.com/changelogs/salient.html

Modal support for the plugin “popup maker” was also added in v9, which can be seen on the latest eCommerce demo: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-ecommerce-creative/

Cheers

Hi is this code outdated? Its not called visual builder anymore. I get an error when I add it.

(from here http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/salient-studio/) return false; }

function add_salient_studio_to_vc() {

function nectar_generate_salient_studio_button() { return false; }

Hey pors, that’s still the name of the function within Salient so it should work. Are you pasting it directly into your child theme functions.php file? If so, Please reach out via the contact form on my author page with temporary admin credentials so I can take a look https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Thanks in advance

Can you please Help. I cant acess my admin after adding your code. I get a 500 error

Hey pors, please see my response to your other comment in regards

Hi there, first up LOVE your theme.. the best out there .. keep up the GREAT work!

a couple of qs please. ..

1. how do i change the thickness of the animated underline in the main nav, think its 2px right now.. would like it to be 1px

2. How do i change the thickness of the jumbo sized button when using “see through solid on hover” button style, again its 2px now i think, id like it to be 1px

3. The salient studio template aplty named “daring CTA morphing outline buttons” .. im using this in a page, love it!.. but when page loads the circle border outline and text is teale (blue) then fades to the colour i want (white) cant seem to see how to have it load white? Haven’t got this teale colour in my accent colour settings in salient admin panel so dont know where its coming from?

4. Can we have a transparent nav bar on mobile but then have it change to a solid background (white) fixed nav bar on scroll ? Similar to how it works on desktop with transparent header selected and fixed nav.. on scroll it fades to solid colour background.. Can see “Header Permanent Transparent” setting sets it correctly on page load,.. but then on scroll logo and menu icon get lost over top of content.. ? make sense? so wwould like it tranparent on load but solid background on scroll (same as desktop settings)

Hey flashbits!

1. add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:


#header-outer[data-lhe="animated_underline"] header#top nav >ul >li:not([class*="button_"]) >a:after, body.material #slide-out-widget-area[class*="slide-out-from-right"] .off-canvas-menu-container li a:after {
  border-width: 1px;
}

2.


html body.material .nectar-button.jumbo.see-through, html body.material .nectar-button.jumbo.see-through-2, html body.material .nectar-button.jumbo.see-through-3 {
    border-width: 1px!important;
}

3


body .morphing-outline .inner:after { border-color: #fff; }
body .morphing-outline .inner >* { color: #fff; }

4. Unfortunately there’s no option for this as of now, but it’s planned within the next couple of releases :)

5. It’s labeled “testimonial popout” and is within the “testimonials” sidebar cateorgy.

Cheers

awesome thanks so much!

You’re very welcome flashbits :)

​Hi, I have been setting up wordpress sites for 10+ years and using Salient for over 5 years and never had this issue. I just fired up a new droplet in digital ocean and installed Wordpress one-lick (PHP 7) and installed latest Salient. I usually do the demo importer without any issues but this time I did it and the homepage is blank. Only thing I see is the Salient logo and a few icons. So, I tried reimporting and it just gets stuck at 97% forever. I am an advanced WP user so never had this issue and can usually resolve myself. I also tried to do the manual upload but when I try to context.xml file, it gives me a “link has expired” error so I upgraded all of my php memory and time limit but still no luck. What’s odd is I see the pages built out already and when I go to EDIT the pages, it shows all of the right content in the visual composer but Preview shows blank page with Salient logo and few icons and Front End editor also shows blank page with only Salient logo and a few icons.

Help please. LOVE your theme and support by the way, keep up the great work please!

looks like woocommerce blocks 1.3.1 for gutenberg is causing the homepage and demo import to crash. I deactivated woocommerce blocks (which woocommerce plugin installed and suggested to activate!) and it is working now.

Hey ehong33234, thanks for coming back on this and letting me know what the issue was for you – I’m going to look into that closely. If you could, you could kindly check your PHP error logs for any new/fatal errors that were reported with the conflict?

Cheers

ThemeNectar,

If you could please visit the link below and let me know if it’s possible to have the entire thumbnail active and clickable instead of just the ‘More Details’ button?

Portfolio page reference: http://neileverosborne.com/on-assignment-editorial/

As always thanks for your help.

Best, Alan

Hey Alan,

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


.portfolio-items .col .work-info .vert-center {
    position: static;
    transform: none;
}

body .portfolio-items .col .work-item .work-info a.default-link {
    position: absolute;
    top: 0;
    left: 0;
    width: 100%;
    height: 100%;
    display: flex;
    background-color: transparent!important;
    align-content: center;
    justify-content: center;
    flex-direction: column;
}

Cheers

AMAZING!!!! Many thanks

A++ as always.

Best, Alan

Glad I could help Alan :)

Hi, on checkout page, the payment-info is shown before the order-overview-products. This is not ideal for UX. In your demo-version (http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-ecommerce-creative/checkout/) payment-info is the last selection before buying-button. Are there any settings in backend for the ordering? I checked the templates and ajax-updating stuff.. but didn`t find a solution.

There seems to be a problem with the checkout-hooks..

Sorry guys – found the mistake – was a wrong configured plugin..

Hey mariostuder,

Glad to hear you found out what the culprit was.

Cheers :)

Hello ThemeNectar!,

I’m having some issues with Salient and Autoptimize. When Autoptimize is activated its causes weird errors on these two pages.

1. the search results: https://www.carevive.com/?s=advisory+board

2. The top blog entry is missing on the blog archive page: https://www.carevive.com/carevive-blog/

All works fine when deactivated, but I really need the plugin to trim down site load time, etc.

Any insights would be appreciated. Keep up the great work!

Hey mousemediainteractive,

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


body .row:after, body .col:after, body .clr:after, .group:after {
    content: "";
    display: block;
    height: 0;
    clear: both;
    visibility: hidden;
}

Cheers :)
