Hi guys,
Could you please help me out with this little issue:
Please see url: https://connectingbrands.pt/granfondo-leva-novos-publicos-a-moncao-e-melgaco/
I have activated the “Related Posts On Single Post Page” functionality but it doesn’t seem to be working correctly, because I don’t have anything appearing on the bottom of the post page.
Like in this demo: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-blog-ultimate/be-my-guest-concert/
I have created 3 different posts, but still it’s not appearing. What would be the problem there?
Hey DigitSigma, the related posts section picks posts that share the same category – you’ll need at least three within the same category for the section to display. Checking out the category “noticias”, there appears to only be 2 posts
https://connectingbrands.pt/category/noticias/Hi, fair enough
Thanks
You’re welcome DigitSigma 
Hi, How could I build icons with a graduated background like in the Live Preview of the theme?
Cheers
hello. I have a question. how can I change the font size of main page for minimal portfolio demo page?
Hey gdlsbeck,
If you’re referring to the project titles within the grid, you can adjust those in the Salient options panel > typography > general HTML elements tab with the “Heading 3” field
Cheers
The front-end editor isn’t working for me. Theme V10.01 and WpBakery 5.6 installed. Thoughts? I’m really pumped about this new feature.
Hey harrisonwhittaker, have you verified that no third party plugins you may have active are causing the issue? Besides that, one known conflicting third party product is rockerloader from cloudlare. If neither of those are causing your issue, please reach out via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar
Thanks in advance
Hi ThemeNectar, Can we hope to see a new demos soon? Cheers
Hey Pixsite,
Yes – new demos will be out in the next release 
Cheers
Hey. I put a button in the footer for: https://klad.ca/ I copied the code from another button that worked fine, but when I put it into the footer widget, the text goes to the same colour as the button on hover. Are you able to help me with this?
This is the code I put in. I’ve tried a few things and nothing is working. Thank you so much.<a class="nectar-button large regular extra-color-1 has-icon regular-button" style="margin-top: 30px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); visibility: visible;" target="_blank" href="https://klad.ca/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Klad-Lookbook-web-2019.pdf" data-color-override="false" data-hover-color-override="false" data-hover-text-color-override="#fff"><span>Klad Lookbook</span><i style="color: #000000;" class="icon-button-arrow" /></a>
Hey A_K,
add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
body #footer-outer .nectar-button:hover {
color: #000!important;
}
Your site design came great by the way!
Cheers
Thanks! Great theme to work with.
You’re a life saver — thanks for the code snippet!
Glad I could help A_K 
Please insert the arrows on the carousel to make the job easier.
All you need to do is place the arrow on the carousel to be perfect.
Hey ofmarconi,
Thanks for the request, i’ve noted your +1 for the idea on the wishlist 
Hello, I have a question regarding a big white and definitely not intended bar on the very bottom of some of my pages? How do I get rid of them? Why are they showing up?
F.e. here: https://ernstneumeister.com/wunderjahr-prelaunch-content/ (Scroll to the very bottom, it’s just above the footer…)Thanks for your support! Ernst
Hey Ernst!
The plugin you have active relating to “mailmunch-forms” is causing the Salient theme logic to add that space since it’s the last HTML element on the page instead of a page builder row. You can fix this by adding this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
body .container-wrap { padding-bottom: 0; }
Cheers
Wow, thanks for the quick and great help. That worked out of the box and now the ugly bar is gone! 
Glad I could help mamboernst 
Cheers
Hello—after updating to WP 5.3, it seems the Salient WPBakery Page Builder plugin is crashing my site. I have 5.6 version, and the most recent Salient (10.01). When I activate it the page goes blank. I’ve deactivated all plugins and that seems to be the culprit.
I see that when I deactivate Woocommerce and keep WPB activated, the site is not found. Yet when I deacivate Nextgen and keep WPB activated, it shows a black page. I’ve tried removing any custom CSS fields but no such luck. Any thoughts on what it could be?
Thank you!
MJ
Update: It seems that activating Woocommerce alone crashes the site. Activating Nextgen alone gets a white screen.
(This is while WPB is active).
Hey artblend, blank white screens point to a fatal error that will be logged in your PHP error log. Please check that out (if you’re unfamiliar with it, your hosting company will be able to assist) and look for what fatal errors are occurring so we can get to the root of your issue
Cheers

Thanks artblend,
It looks like your MySQL server is having some issues as it appears to be continually losing the connection:
“WordPress database error Lost connection to MySQL server” – have you tried to repair your WP database since the WP update to rule that out?
Yes I have. What it appears to be is that the site doesn’t like running on PHP 7.X. When I revert to 5.6, all works well.
Hey artblend,
Salient has been tested up to PHP7.2, were you possibly using 7.3?
The milestone counter does not work in mobile view.
No animation. No numbers spin.
Does not work in the demo in mobile view, eg: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-startup/
What’s the problem with a mobile view?
Hey Ingatlanhaszon, the animation effect is disabled when viewed on a smartphone/tablet, but the milestone itself should still be visible. Are you seeing a blank space where the element should be? If so, please let me know what device you’re testing on
Thanks
The milestone is visible but no animation. No numbers spin.
Is it possible to switch animation in mobile view?
Hey Ingatlanhaszon,
all of the elements which have scrolling based animations are disabled on mobile except BG related animations i.e. parallax etc. Changing this would require modding to both the js/init.js file as well as the css/responsive.css file at this time. However, we’ve noted your +1 for the idea to make this a theme option and it will likely become available soon
Hi,
I am using an image gallery with the basic slider and want to open a link to a custom URL. I added the custom URL selection and also added the URL, but it keeps opening in a lightbox in a broken link. Here is a screenshot of what I am seeing. It is appending ”/#group_1826-7” to the URL as that is not in the URL I added to the gallery.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/v9s24haqhpqkgw1/Screen%20Shot%202019-01-16%20at%2011.17.42%20AM.png?dl=0Hey bmccabe3cw,
I just added the fix for that into the current beta of the theme. If you would like access before the next release, please reach out via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Hi, I am trying to translate “Read Article” but it just seems I can’t find it within the files. I was able to translate everything else.
Hey Cobawsky,
Did you use the “nectar_salient_strings.pot” to generate your own .po file? If so, could you also let me know what version you’re using of the theme?
Thanks in advance
Yes I did use that file.
The version I probably old. I may have bought it on 2014 or something like that. What should I do then?
Hey Cobawsky, if you do not want to update the theme, could you share the page URL where the string is located so I can see which instance of it you’re trying to find to point you to the correct file?
Thanks in advance
I tried to update following the instructions on your website but now I have two template on my theme list and I don’t know which one to use.
Anyway, this is the URL https://historiamilitaronline.com.br/
And the button I want to translate is the “read article” over the Nectar Slider on near the header.
Hey, you can see the theme version when clicking “theme details” in Appearance > themes within the admin section. The file which has that string is located at nectar/tinymce/shortcode-processing.php. Once inside you can simply run a search for “Read Article”, there should be 3 instances
Nothing found on “Read Article”. I found that file, but no such string inside.
Hey Cobawsky, please see my response to your other comment in regards
Hello I’m going to work in my web in localhost mode (I can not work in the hosting in back), when I finish, I’ll delete the original web, upload the new one. Will I have license problems installing the Salient theme when uploading my website to the hosting? Thanks!
Hey marketingCOLORSit,
There’s no issue with doing that as far as your license is concerned 
Cheers
Hi, I am using the Project Style full screen zoom slider in the home page and at first images load with a black bacground that looks really bad, can we turn that to transparent? the site is tdsclients.com
thank you very much
Hey Consi,
You can set anything you want to display as the BG on the actual row element which holds the recent project element
I know that, but its not the overall background, it just happens when the page loads the first time, the image is black at first using the Project Style full screen zoom slider , i want it white or transparent. this is the site tdsclients.com
thank you
Hey Consi,
add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
.nectar_fullscreen_zoom_recent_projects .project-slide .bg-outer-wrap .bg-inner-wrap {
background-color: transparent!important;
}
great! thank you very much, best theme and best support ever!
You’re very welcome Consi 
Cheers
Hi,
How to enable adding a link to an image description so it could be clickable when opening in a lightbox? Now it removes the link.
Thank you.
Hey ZoanEffects,
Try to use single quotes instead of double quotes for the href attribute – if that does not work for you, please share your URL in regards so I can take a look
Cheers
Salient 10.0.1 not compatible with WordPress 5.0.3? The salient setting are bug and i cant change some setting there.
eg. CSS/Script Related, Typography. Some setting are bug and the page are blank sometimes
ignore this.. i found the solution.
Hey iEx0n, glad to hear you’ve sorted it 
Hey! I am considering purchasing this. I was just wondering will you guys be updating this theme and is it good for the long term? Considering the fact that you guys had launched this in 2013.
Also does this also come with the normal backend editor or just the front-end live editor of WP bakery
Hey prateekkatyal,
1. We have no plans to stop updating Salient – it’s been our primary focus since we released it
We also just released a major update (v10) right before the new year
2. Both the frontend and backend editors are available to use
does the mobile font scaling feature affect line height and/or can you control it somehow? After the update all of my line heights went weird and i can’t figure out how to get them back.
Hey jdredman, if you’re referring to the settings in the typography > responsive settings tab, the line height should scale down at the same % as the actual font size. Can you please share your URL in regards so I can take a look?
Thanks
answersbc.org – on mobile you can see the line height is larger than it should be. Thanks!
Hey jdredman, thanks for sharing your URL
For now, 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) {
body .wpb_wrapper h2.vc_custom_heading {
line-height: 30px!important;
}
}
Cheers
hello, I tried that and it is not working. It looks like dynamic-combined.css has important on line height. any other ideas?
Hey jdredman, you can still override an !important property with another one – I just tested the snippet in the browser and can see it working, however I’m not seeing the css added to your site from the theme options. Could you kindly reach out via the contact form on my author page with temporary admin credentials so I can take a closer look at the back? https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar
Thanks
my apologies, I think i just had a caching issue. Thanks!
Hey jdredman, glad to hear you got that sorted 
Hi,
After updating the salient to version 10.0.1 the single product layout issue on additional information is look messy.
Please see screenshot http://prntscr.com/lqy4ym
Thank you!
Hey colourst!
Do you have any CSS minification active currently? If so, please temporarily disable it and kindly share the URL so I can take a look.
Thanks in advance
Hi,
Yes I did the custom CSS to temporary fixed the issue. Okay I will disable it then our site is only user have login access can view so I will send the login access to the support tab.
Thank you!
Sorry I can’t send it via support tab so I send it on your profile. Thank you!

Hi,
Did you receive the login access?
Thank you!
Hey colourst, sorry about that – I responded to your email earlier today in regards.
Cheers
Okay I will check on it. Thanks
You’re welcome colourst

Hi,
I saw that you have new version 10.0.4.
Version 8.5.0 additional information layout look like this, please see screenshot http://prntscr.com/nf6pg6
Version 10.0.4 additional information layout look like this, please see screenshot http://prntscr.com/nf6pox
The layout of the Version 8.5.0 between the Version 10.0.4 is very different.
The layout you see on the screenshot of Version 10.0.4 is this layout on you version?
Hey colourst, that shouldn’t be how it displays – the eCommerce demo here is updated to the latest version as well: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-ecommerce-ultimate/product/alexandria-shirt/ can you share your actual product page URL so I can take a look?
Thanks in advance
