HI there – after updating to the latest version many issues happened. Have sorted most of them out, but the mobile menu shows on the site constantly
Hey wpnetninjas, if you’ve already verified that the issue is not relating to a child theme you may have active or caching, could you share your URL in regards so I can take a look?
Thanks in advance
Is there a way to post to a completely blank page/post? By that, I mean no header (title, date, category) and no footer.
Hey arteest, yes, there’s a page layout titled “No Header & Footer” which you can assign in the page attributes for any page.
Cheers
Can you please tell me where to find it? The option is nowhere to be found when setting up a page or post. Thank you.
The page attributes metabox is only offered to pages and not posts. See attached: https://ibb.co/1GZh7t6
Ahhhh… I knew about that area. Is there a way to get a clean page, like that, but for a Post? The header/footer clashes with my full-page design.
Removing the header/footer from a post would require custom CSS – could you share a post so I can take a look at your settings?
Thanks in advance
Yes sir. https://bit.ly/2I41mWu
Thanks, here’s the needed CSS:
.single .heading-title, .single #footer-outer {
display: none!important;
}
Thank you. That worked to remove the header, however, 2.5 more questions and I think I can stop harassing you guys, lol…
1. How do i remove the line beneath the blog? Bottom of page.
2. The CSS option that is page-specific does not seem to be changing the background color. Can I please get some test code for it?
3. Last question, how do I remove the margins at the Top/Bottom of the page after I’ve removed the elements with the code provided? Thank you for ALL your help. 5 stars!
Hey arteest,
1.
body article.post .content-inner {
border-bottom: 0;
}
2.
html .single-post .container-wrap {
background-color: red;
}
3.
.single-post .container-wrap {
padding-top: 0;
padding-bottom: 0;
}
body article.post .content-inner {
margin-bottom: 0;
padding-bottom: 0;
}
Cheers
Hi there, I updated my theme to with the envato plugin, but I am unable to make any changes in the options panel…. can’t change the logo, add social media links etc. Whenever I save it says it is unable to do this function and to reload the page. I reload the page and the same error returns. I signed out and signed back in.. tried in another browser.. same problem. Can someone help? I can’t have Salient logo on my website

Hey sandflower81, could you please reach out via the contact form on my author page with temporary admin credentials so I can take a closer look? https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar
Thanks in advance
Just tried updating theme to new version using the envato-market extension. After upgrading theme version, I selected activate theme, then immediately the admin/site crashed.
I got the following: The site is experiencing technical difficulties. Please check your site admin email inbox for instructions.
I enabled error logs, there is nothing being outputted showing there is a problem. Only way to fix it is to completely delete theme from themes folder.
Then after deleting the theme via ftp I tried to upload it as a new theme and I get the same problem.
Any thoughts?
Hey BlackWat3r, in your other comment thread where you mentioned “Just updated to new version, seems like it is running much faster now” – is that referring to a separate site that you updated? Did you check the PHP error logs as well,as something should be written there providing more info. In any case, please 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
I first tested on my dev sever and everything worked fine, then went to update live server and thats when I had the problem. It was an issue with php opcache and I’ve sorted it out.
Thanks for letting me know 
Hey everyone!
Just as a reminder, Salient v10.5 has been available for a couple of days now and is a major release. Please read through the update guide here before updating to ensure a smooth transition.Cheers
Hi,
I am using the new v10.5 update, and when I put this code in the functions.php child theme to disable the default fonts. Secondary Header bar breaks.
This is the code I use, is it correct?
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'function remove_salient_font' );
function remove_salient_font() {
wp_dequeue_style('nectar_default_font_open_sans');
}
Also,
When I use this template https://imgur.com/a/on1jijU and the only thing I change here is the gradient color to a flat color, Accent Color 1, lets say pink color.
The icon color does not change, it is gray. I am bringing this to your attention because before the v10.5 update this was working fine, changing the accent color from gradient to flat color, it would also change the font and hover background color.
Now this is what you see https://imgur.com/a/acThaFC as you can see the icons are gray, before they update they were pink or whatever accent color was selected.
Can you provide a fix?
thank
Hey toolbox101,
1. The correct code is actually as follows:
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'remove_salient_font' );
function remove_salient_font() {
wp_dequeue_style('nectar_default_font_open_sans');
}
2. It looks like that issue should only occur when using the accent color as the selection, any other colors (extra color #1,3 etc) should apply the color. I’ve noted to change that for the regular accent color as well in the next release.
Cheers
Thanks for getting back
Actually I was using Accent color 1 before the new update and it was working just fine, the new update messed it up for me. Can I get a temporary fix until you fix it during the next update? It changes the main look of my site because I use those options a lot.
Also, I wanna thank you for the new performance updates and making the categories more SEO-friendly, any performance and SEO-friendly updates are always welcome.
I have one more question, how can we disable any unused CSS? Will you also consider this for the next update? Google Speed Took keeps suggesting that there is a lot of unused CSS and Code to text ratio is high when using Salient.
This would be a great update.
Thank for the hard word, also, love the New minimal drop down menu, any new skin elements are also welcome. The social share in visual composer is also outdated, would be nice to have different skins for those too.
Thanks
Hey,
1. add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
.nectar-fancy-box[data-style="color_box_hover"][data-color="accent-color"] .icon-default-style {
color: #ff0000;
}
2. There was already significant logic added in the last update to load only was is necessary. If you want to further remove things based on your setup, it would require modding the style.css. It’s very organized now so it should be easy to delete chunks.
Cheers
Hey thanks for all the help.
The code for removing the fonts did not work, maybe its conflicting with my other codes inside the fucntions.php file in the Child theme?
Can you check my full code please?
Here it is, the first section is the default Salient code in the functions file, then the 2nd part is to fix SEO issues for the blog pagination. And the 3rd code is to disable fonts, which you have provided.
Do I have anything wrong in the code?
<?php
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'salient_child_enqueue_styles', 100);
function salient_child_enqueue_styles() {
$nectar_theme_version = nectar_get_theme_version();
wp_enqueue_style( 'salient-child-style', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/style.css', '', $nectar_theme_version );
if ( is_rtl() ) {
wp_enqueue_style( 'salient-rtl', get_template_directory_uri(). '/rtl.css', array(), '1', 'screen' );
}
}
/** Add Page Number to Title and Meta Description for SEO **/
if ( ! function_exists( 'multipage_metadesc' ) ){
function multipage_metadesc( $s ){
global $page;
$paged = get_query_var( 'paged' ) ? get_query_var( 'paged' ) : 1;
! empty ( $page ) && 1 < $page && $paged = $page;
$paged > 1 && $s .= ' - ' . sprintf( __( 'Part %s' ), $paged );
return $s;
}
add_filter( 'wpseo_metadesc', 'multipage_metadesc', 100, 1 );
}
if ( ! function_exists( 'multipage_title' ) ){
function multipage_title( $title ){
global $page;
$paged = get_query_var( 'paged' ) ? get_query_var( 'paged' ) : 1;
! empty ( $page ) && 1 < $page && $paged = $page;
$paged > 1 && $title .= ' - ' . sprintf( __( 'Part %s' ), $paged );
return $title;
}
add_filter( 'wpseo_title', 'multipage_title', 100, 1 );
}
/** Disable all defult Salient Browser fonts **/
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'remove_salient_font' );
function remove_salient_font() {
wp_dequeue_style('nectar_default_font_open_sans');
}
?>
Hey, the priority on the action probably just needs to be adjusted – change that section to this:
/** Disable all defult Salient Browser fonts **/
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'remove_salient_font', 100 );
function remove_salient_font() {
wp_dequeue_style('nectar_default_font_open_sans');
}
worked fine, thanks… there is also a browser issue after the new update. If you view the Material Skin on iPhone 10 Max, the word Search gets cut off from the top.
Is it possible to add the nectar-love counter to a WooCommerce product? Does the count handle a product ID or only Post IDs?
Hey Sean,
When using the Nectar Social plugin and selecting “Determined by theme settings” for the style, the love feature will be added. http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/salient-social-plugin/Cheers
Can you use a side navigation (logo, menu etc, on the side-left) and then add an additional secondary menu up top as you can with a traditional header layout?
Hey noantsinmypants,
Unfortunately, there’s no option for that as of now and the use of a plugin or custom modding would be required.
Cheers
The padding I set for my text boxes all collapse on mobile. (30px, 20px, 14px). When viewed on mobile, all my text is crammed together. Any way to make the padding “hold up” on mobile devices?
Hey arteest, please share your page URL in regards so I can take a look to help out.
Thanks in advance
Just updated to new version, seems like it is running much faster now, however still one big issue still with icon font iconsmind.
1) I mentioned this before, you said in new version you would be able to use svg version, this way you wouldn’t have to load the entire iconmind font wich is 927kb! I don’t see an option for this, am I missing it?
2) Unrelated, but is there a way to make your popular posts widget only show posts that are related to the current category being viewed?
Hey BlackWat3r,
1. We added in the functionality for loading individual SVGs as we said,
however it requires one additional tweak to enable. Since there are so many files we needed to include them in a .zip
within the salient/css/fonts/svg-iconsmind dir. Once you unzip them, the SVGs will be used instead of the normal
icon font
We will be adding a section mentioning this in the docs soon.
2. This would require custom development as of now however I’ve noted the idea on the wishlist
Cheers
Awesome feature, just unzipped it and tried it out, works perfect. It actually decreased my page speed by almost a full second.
Glad to hear BlackWat3r
Could you also elaborate further on your other comment where that installing the update has crashed your site?
Hi there, does your theme work well with Woocommerce bookings?
Hey imediastars,
I have not personally tested with that extension, however if there are any issues with it just let
me know so I can assist 
Cheers
I upgrade from Salient 10.0.4 to 10.5. Everythink seems to be fine instead “Read Article” in recent posts. Where i can translate it? There is no string “Read Article” in PO, MO, POT file (Salient Lang catalog). Please help me to find string to translate.
Hey LPeron,
I have just confirmed that the specific string you’re referring to needs to be added into the salient-core text domain. For now, before the next release, you can find it in wp-content/plugins/salient-core/includes/vc_templates/recent_posts.php
Cheers
Hi great Update!
there will be new demos?
thanks!
Thanks fabiodimar 
There are not new demos for 10.5 since we wanted to solely focus on the core theme rework. We will definitely be adding new demos in the next feature based update though – stay tuned!
I just did the latest update and now my “To The Top” button has stopped working. It is displayed but it doesn’t do anything when you click on it. https://www.bpmediaworks.com
Hey BPMediaWorks, please temporarily disable your javascript minfication so I can take a look.
Thanks in advance
My mobile menu is also gone until I scroll down. The mobile header is also displaying the wrong logo now until you scroll down. I’ve cleared caches etc.
OK I disabled the minification and that corrected the To The Top button issue. But the mobile header is still not working correctly.
Hey BPMediaWorks, have you also tried to fully clear or temporarily disable the CSS minfication to verify that’s not causing the issue? If so, please reach out via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar
Hi, great update! Thank you. Just one thing is my burger menu has seemed to have disappeared on mobile. Is it possible to take a look please? https://wtauthor.com
Okay – it appears it is something in the child css. Is there any indication on what this could be?
Also just noticed by hovering over links doesn’t change the icon from arrow to hand pointing.
Thanks in advance!
Final point – seems even with a blank child css – the nav menu on mobile still doesn’t appear.
Thanks!
Hey wtauthor!
I checked your URL on phone but couldn’t see the menu issue you’re referring to: https://ibb.co/N2nwpxP have you cleared your device cache?
Also, kindly open a ticket on our support forum in regards so that we can assist you in a more organized manner https://themenectar.ticksy.com
Thanks in advance 
@mediawest_it i look in you code with the network inspector. you style.css is empty and only a sentence
/—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—--/
/* Note: The theme CSS files are loaded through the /css/ folder.
/—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—--/
your theme do not load the theme of the css folder.
like @medienkueche said… terrible update process… all sites are broken. I was lucky enough to reinstall version 10.0.4 everywhere…
Hey mediawest_it, the URL running 10.5 is not getting the main stylsheet loaded (which is now located at css/style.css) – can you please temporarily deactivate your child theme to see if something in there is dequeuing it?
Thanks, I was using dequeue_style in this way in all my child themes
wp_dequeue_style( 'main-styles' );
wp_enqueue_style( 'parent-style', get_template_directory_uri() . '/style.css', '');
Now those lines are commented and the lab.welconboat.com looks similar to www
it was done to enqueue child theme css after the parent
You’re welcome mediawest_it. Glad I could help out 
Hello Nectar Team!
I run into many issues with the 10.5 version. Alle plugins are deactivate after the update. I run automaticly the updates via ENVATO MARKET plugin. Now all my customers have a terrible view on there websites. That is not good!!! Have you fast solution for me??? At the first customer if i activate the required plugins, the view is not the same. The menu have another design and the secondary top header is not correct visible.
And shortcode is not run. Terrible Update!!!
Hey medienkueche,
1. We covered why had to move the functionality to plugins in our release article here: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/important-salient-update-for-new-envato-requirements/ – while we would not have chosen to do that for an existing theme, that was the only option to continue on Envato as it is now a requirement.
2. Please share your URL in regards so I can see why your shortcodes are not parsing after installing the needed plugins to assist.
Thanks in advance
Thanks for your fast reply. i have check at a test site the issues. now you have insert new style for the menu, so i have now a big “border” around my sub menu. Here i see not the mobile burger button, but on the live site. i can’t use your support ticket tool. and i do not insert here the live url. what can we do?
Normaly earlier salient activate automaticly ASCEND Design. Now METRO Style is standard?! after i activate metro style, the Top bar is okay, but i must enter a margin-top to the header top so that the logo is not hide under the top bar.
sorry I mean the MATERIAL Style
so I have see a new height-space element. And with some css and change the settings at the backend at the salient options I hope I have clear all issues. but this was not a good update. For all other people who have problems try:
Set the style to MATERIAL “Secondary Menu” have now a extra sub menu at salient options. check the height of .height-space and #top.
Hey medienkueche, could you please share the URL in private using the contact form on my author page so I can take a closer look? https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar
Thanks in advance
Hey, I just download the last update. But now from the mobile version, I can’t click on the hamburger menu anymore. Can you help me ? I have to extend the support for that ? https://jeremyetmickael.fr
Hey Jrm57, I just tested out your URL on a couple devices and have been able to access the menu – have you cleared your browser cache on the device yet?
Cheers
Yes I disabled my cache extension and it works now. Thanks
You’re welcome Jrm57 
Hello I updatet to the latest Version and now Google Fonts are added. How can i disable them? I rolled back until i get an answer. Thank you very much.

wp_dequeue_style('nectar_default_font_open_sans');
}
Thank you 
You’re welcome
