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.

Hey Bmona, if you wish to remove the Salient default open sans font you can add the following into your child theme functions.php:
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'function remove_salient_font' );
    function remove_salient_font() {
        wp_dequeue_style('nectar_default_font_open_sans');
    }

Thank you :)

You’re welcome :)

Hey ThemeNectar, thank you so much for another massive update! That must have been quite a job to pull off :)

The update process was very smooth, however I did run into something strange: on desktop, a second navigation menu with id #mobile-menu is now shown.

Did I overlook a setting?

Many thanks in advance!

Hey 0L4F :) It has been a ton of work indeed – if you can ensure that a child theme/cache is not causing that, could you please share the URL so I can take a look at it?

Thanks in advance

Whoops, my bad – it only happens when my child theme is active. Maybe I should do some restructuring there as well ;)

No worries 0L4F, glad I could help :)

Heya,

I am having a problem with my posts. I wish to have the posts alltogether in a single page, without entering into them. The problem is that they display only an excerpt and not all the text. The first post for example says :
LPS was in Cannes. Natasha attends the Producers Network and lands some very exciting meetings!…
It cuts the text, while inserting the continuation mark. Can i display all of the text? http://www.londonproductionstudios.com/news/

Thanks

Hey LineageSemer :)

You can set the excerpt length via the Salient options panel > blog > functionality tab.

Cheers

You are the best! <3

Glad I could help :)

Ran into an issue when trying to install on WP 5.2.1. I get this error “The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet.” Do you have a ETA doe 5.2.x support?

I found some info online to try. Ignore this comment from me.

Hey martycastilla, that error occurs when uploading the .zip downloaded directly from ThemeForest before extracting the theme itself. I’m glad you found the solution :)

Cheers

Hey, ND81 from above here :) I just went to update a client’s site and got an error when I activated the new theme (going from v10): ‘This site is experiencing technical difficulties…’ – I don’t have any caching set up on this particular site etc.; any ideas what this might be caused by?

Hey sjadmin, the full error related to that would have been logged in your PHP error logs. Could you please take a look at that and let me know what it says?

Congrats on the release of what looks like an exceptionally huge amount of work for the new version; all the very best for your very deserved ongoing sales (you’ll still be getting plenty from me for my clients!)

Thanks a lot ND81, I really appreciate that :)

Upgraded to 10.5. I wasn’t able to update the plugins since I’m told that I don’t have access to the page.

The site is in disarray obviously without the plugins, but doing a full site restore through cPanel with my service provider makes it even worse.

Hey RollingSpoke, were you logged in as an admin when you did the update? If you could reach out in regards with a temporary admin login I’d be glad to take a closer look as to what happened. You can use the contact form on my author page here: https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Thanks in advance

Hey Nectar, I was able to find a solution by going to the wordpress plugins panel and installing the them.

Before I was just clicking on the buttons in the Salient notice which got me the notice error.

The site restore issue was simply a delay with the server cache.

I’m excited to go through the new features. Best wishes with the new release!

Hey RollingSpoke, i’m glad to hear that. If you could – opening a ticket or reaching out directly via the form I previously mentioned with a temporary login would be beneficial so I could examine why that link didn’t work on your end.

Cheers

Noticed an issue in the portfolio display layout after updating to the latest version 10.0.4 For some reason the portfolio grid items get squished vertically. See https://www.christinamichael.in. I’m on WordPress version 5.2.1.

Hey ArtyChristina, it looks like that’s occurring due to the use of the lazy load feature in your plugin WP Smush it. The portfolio section will need to be excluded from that so that the calculations can be made correctly.

Cheers

Hi! I want to import the ecommerce creative demo but I don’t see it when I click on demo importer on Wordpress. I updated to the latest version of Wordpress… I don’t see an update for a new version of Salient… how do I get that demo/template?

http://preview.themeforest.net/item/salient-responsive-multipurpose-theme/full_screen_preview/4363266?_ga=2.255132224.916905729.1558847487-1741303416.1555912395

Hey sandflower81! :)

Are you using Salient v10+? If not, you’ll need to update the theme using one of the methods described in the docs: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/updating-salient/

Cheers

hi! because of the cache, the logo is not displayed correctly. can you help me? https://yarasheva.studio

Hey Nicko_217, the logo is not formatting correctly because of the lazy load functionality you have active. You’ll need to bypass that image in order to have the navigation on the left/right calculate correctly. If you can not bypass the image another work around would be to simply add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:


.menu-item-with-margin {
 margin-right: 231px!important;
}

Cheers

Requested the beta via contact form!

Hey hookieoalo,

the update is actually out as of today – check out our guide in regards: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/important-salient-update-for-new-envato-requirements/

Cheers

I’m having an issue with my site’s header similar to pvictor4 above where the header is now too tall and the mobile site header is being covered up. My site is located at http://tagnifi2019.wpengine.com/. Can you please help me with these?

Hey csandstedt,

The space appears to be coming from incorrectly added code in your head – see the attached screen shot showing slashes sitting next to the custom added script you have: https://ibb.co/b6PcCBL Quickly check your Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab to verify that there is no stray code in the JS box.

Cheers

Thank you! I’ve updated that code and it is perfect again.

Glad I could help :)

Hi the team, I really likr this theme. 2 questions here tho:

1. Do you support custom font (@font-face) feature? I have a project that doesn’t use google font.

2. In case I would like to use different layout in different section of the page. Let’s say: www.xxx.com/category1 and www.xxx.com/category2. Can category 1 and category2 section show different layout, for example, category1 will look like http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-corporate-2/ and category2 will look like http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-service/ ?

Hey iamjiere,

1. Font face additions would need to be done with CSS or the use of a plugin such as https://wordpress.org/plugins/use-any-font/

2. You can mix and match sections of the demos using the Salient studio template library when creating pages http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/salient-studio/ however in the specific case of categories for posts/projects, the archive templates for those will be one design based on your global theme options.

Cheers

How can I change the Call To Action option and place a instagram-feed

I have managed to place it in call-to-action.php (includes/partials/footer/call-to-action.php)

add requests to add a short code in “Call To Action” for a new update

Hey ziccia, glad to hear you’ve sorted it for now.

Cheers

Hi! Trying to resolve an issue with my Salient themed website. The url is https://www.tenthunder.com/ and pre update (as it stands now) it is running version 8.5.5 of the theme.

But I need to update to version 10 to get it working properly. When I make the update I begin to have a number of issues with the css.

For instance: the front page nav bar changes height from https://gyazo.com/de5948900351e4861e526722084d2f5a to https://gyazo.com/a28a0acabe76ebc2d6e785f359235820

Additionally the space within the portfolio layout changes from no padding to a significant amount. It changes from

https://gyazo.com/cdfdb625b5840d900381c8c3457c2167 To https://gyazo.com/cbdb670c4470d6642db9716250cb4e1e

I have tried some of the recommended troubleshooting, ie resaving the salient options panel. But this has not resolved the issues. Help! I need to make changes to my site.

Thanks for all your help!

Paul

Thanks pvictor4,

1. The extra room at the top under the header navigation is coming from a page header which is active. Please remove the background color you have set in the page header settings metabox at the bottom of the edit page screen (currently it’s set to #000). Previously in old versions using a Nectar Slider would automatically remove a page header, but now it behaves like any other page builder element.

2. You can remove the gaps between your projects by editing the portfolio element and setting the option to “1px” or by using CSS as follows:

body .portfolio-items[data-gutter="default"]:not([data-col-num="elastic"]) .col {
    padding: 0!important;
}

Cheers

Awesome! Thanks, that worked!!

Glad I could help :)

It’s impossible CUSTOMIZE most elements of theme, since they are limited customizable. Some don’t have padding, others background color options and etc.

Theme is NOT MOBILE READY. Most menu features works only for desktop versions. Menu features not working in mobile and off canvas menu slows down mobile version.

SUPPORT team is NOT improving or FIXING theme. And they are not willing to improve it. I have opened 2 tickets, and during 6 month period their answers was like below:

1.Its likely the Facebook plugin as we havent had anyone report and multisite issues yet.

2. No i am afraid the JS code does not work for Mobile and cant be turned on .

This is how they sell you theme and not support it.

BE CAREFUL and think twice before buying.

Hey gozalov, I’m sorry that Salient is not meeting your expectations.

1. Salient is mobile ready, we preview every one of the mobile menu options throughout the various demos. Can you please let me know which menu settings you’re using and provide an example of the issue? It appears your last ticket was attempting to request code to get the “hide header effect until needed” on mobile. There is no option to do this, and we do not show that as a possibility on the demos – It would require more than CSS.

2. We’ve been working nonstop to completely rebuild Salient over the past 4 months to comply to the new strict Envato theme guidelines. The update will be out before the end of the month and we’ve had a public beta open for the past month to get user feedback – there’s been a banner to get access on the top of the documentation.

We also provide refunds for any user who is unsatisfied, though I can see you have not requested one yet https://help.market.envato.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

Cheers

Hello,

Is there anyway to show social icons on the header on mobile?

Looking for any sort of solution, as long as it does not alter the look of of any larger desktop or media layouts.

At the minute it’s going into the collapsed mobile menu.

Many thanks,

Liam

Hey Liam, unfortunately there’s no way to easily add those in without some custom modding at this time. However i’ve noted your idea on the wishlist :)

Cheers

Hey Team,

Is it possible to have the ‘Secondary Header Text’ left aligned instead of centre?

Thanks,

Mark

Hey markoshea,

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


body #header-secondary-outer .nectar-center-text {
  max-width: 100%;
  text-align: left;
  padding-left: 20px;
}

Cheers

​Hi. I have turned “Header Hide Until Needed​” from my Salient menu. It works great in desktop version. But in mobile it doesn’t. How to enable same feature in mobile? Please help me even if I need to add some custom css code to my page. I have moderate knowledge. Thanks in advance. Also it would be great if there was an option to select background color for “Fancy Box” objects besides box accent color. It’s not enough customizable. ​​

Hey gozalov,

please see my response to your newer comment in regards.

How can I adjust the width of portfolio excerpts that flow beneath the thumbnail image? I need to widen it so my text doesn’t wrap too soon. Thank you.

Hey arteest, which project style are you using? If you could also share your URL in regards, that would work too.

Thanks in advance

URL here. Not sure how to figure out my project style though.

https://bit.ly/2QsS0rn

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


.portfolio-items .work-meta {
    width: 100%;
}
