HI is it possible to create an override in the child theme of this file: wp-content/plugins/salient-core/includes/vc_templates/recent_posts.php ?? thanks for you kind answer.

Hey rossiello, not as of now but i’ve noted your +1 for the idea on the wishlist.

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.

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 :( www.bubblybrownsugar.com

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');
    }

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

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

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…

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.

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 :)
