Yes I’m new to this. I’ve imported the demo for “creative corporate” how to I edit the top header and replace “salient” with my logo?

Hey Joshuats,

In the Salient options panel > Header navigation > Logo & general styling tab you’ll find the default logo upload option, which will be used whenever the navigation is in the non transparent state. To alter the logos which will be used when the transparent effect is active, head to the Salient options panel > Header navigation > Transparent Header Effect tab

Cheers

Hi, There’s a function to limit the tags quantity on the Widget, i found something like this, but isn’t workinng: ”//Register tag cloud filter callback add_filter(‘widget_tag_cloud_args’, ‘tag_widget_limit’); //Limit number of tags inside widget function tag_widget_limit($args){ //Check if taxonomy option inside widget is set to tags if(isset($args[‘taxonomy’]) && $args[‘taxonomy’] == ‘post_tag’){ $args[‘number’] = 10; //Limit number of tags } return $args; }”

Hey MarcosK,

I tested with the snippet you pasted in and it worked to limit the tags on my end. Where did you add that in? It should be in your child theme functions.php file before the closing php tag ?>

Hi, thanks i try another code and now its working. Thanks so much!

Glad to hear you got it working MarcosK :)

Hi great team. Before version 10.5 the default font was OpenSans in host. But it not use from host in version 10.5. Could you please say how can use default OpenSans font from host in version 10.5?

Kind regards,

Hey godparadise,

You could add this into a child theme functions.php file to remove the default font from loading through Google:
/** 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');
}

You would then need to enqueue it locally via the child style.css – however, for the release coming this weekend I will be adding in a theme option that will allow you to decide where it’s loaded from.

Cheers

Thanks for your fast support. Yes, I’m sure if you add an option for loading user own fonts it will increase your sale. because RTL couldn’t use google fonts.

Best regards,

10.5.1 is out and included that as a theme option :)

Why does the dropdown not turn white like the demo. It’s black. I changed the color in settings but it stays black.

Hey MarkusB,

What version of the theme are you using? Salient 10.5 changed how the dropdown styling gets applied based on theme options, if you’re on a previous version it would default to a darker color

I loaded the DEMO “Old School Creative” but the Portfolio Single Item page template is not available. How do I find that template?

Hey MarkusB,

Can you share the URL in regards so I can take a look at it to see what you’re referring to by unavailable?

Thanks in advance

Is it possible to make the Row Background Image Animation zoom out instead of zoom in? Also is there a way to adjust the speed? Thanks!

Hey robertexs, those changes would require CSS alterations. Here’s an example that you could add into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:


.row-bg-wrap[data-bg-animation="zoom-out"] .inner-wrap.using-image {
    transition: transform 8s 0s cubic-bezier(0.3,0.58,0.42,0.9)!important;
    transform: scale(1)!important;
}

.row-bg-wrap[data-bg-animation="zoom-out"] .inner-wrap.using-image.animated-in {
    transform: scale(1.3)!important;
}

Cheers

Not sure if you know, but your theme is being sold here for $4.99 https://hottheme.net/salient-responsive-multi-purpose-theme.html

Just letting you know incase someone is trying to resell it.

Hey toolbox101,

That site is selling it illegally along with many other ThemeForest themes. Thanks for letting me know, I’ll try reporting them but I assume many others have already.

Cheers

UGH. Well I just did the update and instantly noticed all my custom font scaling went out the window, my custom header area completely broke, everything instantly looked different on mobile. I also noticed my mobile menu was now a totally different color for some reason. This is why I always hold on on major updates but I figured I would just SEE what changed. So yeah, who knows what else broke but I don’t have time to fix it it, so I reverted to an old backup of my site. Now my ENTIRE WEBSITE is broken. I am really not happy with Salient at the moment. These updates always case issues but nothing every this significant.

Hey TimPiper3D,

Can you please reach out in regards via the contact form on my author page so I can see what custom font scaling/custom header area you’re referring to? https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

The classic mobile menu was also made into an actual theme option (titled simple dropdown) rather than only being available via a combination of classic settings: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/theme-options/header-navigation/#ocn – The colors for that did change to follow your actual header navigation settings, but if you want to change that further I can assist.

v10.5 required Salient to be rebuilt almost entirely – these are new Envato requirements and without complying, we would no longer be able to continue selling the theme here.

Pre-Sales Question. With Multisite installs does the theme globally control the sub sites (colors/fonts/style/theme) or does everything need to be done per sub site?

Hey envisiondesign,

each one of the sub sites will have their own option set.

Cheers

Ah ok, thank you. Kinda hoping to have global control over some design options so save time from having to do it to each one separately.

Unfortunately that would require some modding as of now envisiondesign

Cheers

is it possible to have the text at the bottom to always appear on all these images instead of when you move mouse over it? https://imgur.com/TBPXavm

Hey brianfreeman, it would be possible with some custom CSS (the below code is applicable to v10.5):


.portfolio-items .col .work-item.style-4 .work-info .bottom-meta {
    -webkit-transform: none;
    transform: none;
} 

on this page: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-frostwave/ how do you do this section: https://imgur.com/WrDwcsS and is it possible to link to other pages instead of pic popups?

Hey brianfreeman,

That can be created using the image gallery wpbakery page builder element: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/galleries/#imagegrid However if you wanted to link each item to a custom URL, it would need to be created with the portfolio element or a custom row with fancy box elements.

Cheers

Hello. Trying to use megamenu without column titles, but see only minus sign in megamenu heading. How can i fix this?

Thanks mserge, I responded earlier today :)

Thank you! The best wp theme ever!!

Glad I could help mserge :)

I’m tring to change “next project” to another language. But unfortunately​ can’t do it​. What is the best way of new salient theme ?

I used say-what plugin but not working. Br,

Hey labdalab,

If you’re on v 10.5 of the theme, the string will be located within the Salient Portfolio plugin, which can be seen in translation plugins through the salient-portfolio text domain. Let me know if you’re unable to locate it in there :)

Cheers

It works thanks.

You’re welcome labdalab :)

Update has caused problems and I dont want to pay for extented support to fix this as edverything was fine before.

The font thicknesses on most of the one-page site https://www.neatpr.co.uk/ (except for various places such as the bullet points) has gone too fine/thin. *Its not to do with the font weight. as you can see bullets font is fine (same weight)

I had this issue a year or so and you sent code to fix it which was html body { -webkit-font-smoothing: auto; }) but this doesnt seem to work now?

See screenshot. This is on ALL broswers this is happning (I am on a MAC), some worse tha others. URGENT. https://snag.gy/dMgs0k.jpg

That fixed it, thank you

I have noticed the ‘underline’ for the menu animation seems to be very tight to the text menu headings? Can this be looks at? (they use to me more space, looked neater)

There was also a color issue, for some reason the update made some of my text red, I have changed it back to grey – but this should be noticed as I am sure other people will come into the issues.

FYI for the font issue Ismoothing), it must be a MAC issue, and its something people will come accross eve if YOU didnt see it, there are lots of MAC users these days so its worth checking on those browers too. :)

Thanks for your help.

Hey again alisonleon,

1. Can you please check that you have a line-height set to something in the Salient options panel > typography tab for the “Navigation Font” field? This previously was not applied, but the current versions allows it to be used, which gives you control on how far away the underline will be.

2. What do you have your “Overall Font Color” set to in the Salient options panel > general settings tab? This field was previously not applied globally to full width rows, but it should apply now.

3. For clarification, I was just letting you know I could not see it live so without immediately switching machines, so that snippet was a partial guess. I’m glad it worked for you though :) We do of course test on all operating systems and devices, however slight differences in font rending can vary based on many different aspects/font families/browsers.

Hi there, after the template update I cant see my media files anymore in the dashboard>library. When I try to upload an image file I get an error. I tried to deactivate plugs and changed some settings but it seems like a database problem. i Installed Fix media library and get the next warning:

wp_postmeta.meta_id is not marked as auto_increment field wp_posts.ID is not marked as auto_increment field Primary Key for wp_posts.ID column not found

Is there anything I can do to make this work again? I cant post any pics anymore now :(

Hey ponchovogel, have you already verified that deactivating Salient fixes the issue on your end? Could you also please reach out via the contact form on my author page so I can take a closer look: https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Thanks in advance

I have sent you a message there. Thank you and looking forward to your response

Thanks ponchovogel :)

Hi ThemeNectar, I’m working with my client’s website. I just noticed the Typography in theme options. It says: - Text Align (instead of Text Transformation) - Font Color (instead of Letter Spacing) How can I fix this? https://imgur.com/egE7Fzs

Hey djmalibiran, can you verify that no other third party plugins whicah may be active are causing this? If a plugin is loading a different version of redux (the theme options framework) something like this could occur.

Cheers

Hello Team,

After recent salient update “element-tabbed-section.css” is not loading on woocommerce shop page. (path: /salient/css/elements/element-tabbed-section.css)

Can you please let me know how to make it work? As I am using tabs function on almost all the product category pages + shop page.

FYI>> I have installed all the provided plugins as well.

Thanks, Prince

Sounds good princebhalani143.

Cheers

Hello Team,

element-tabbed-section.css is not getting called on WooCommerce attribute pages, It’s working smoothly on the shop, category pages.

Can you please help me with instant solution how to resolve/enque that style for attribute?

FYI>> Using 11.0.3 theme, Waiting for the 2020 major update.

Thanks, Prince

Hey Prince, in your child theme funcitons.php file, you can add the following to ensure it enqueues:

function nectar_child_tabbed_styles() {
wp_enqueue_style( 'nectar-element-tabbed-section' );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'nectar_child_tabbed_styles' );

Is it possible to display only the categories on the store page?

I edited the store page, set it inside the WooCommerce panel, but the page shows the categories above, the products underneath, sidebar and title.

I would like to display only categories, without title, without sidebar and without products.

https://smartsites.top/obrigadeirov2/produtos/

Hey metropoleonline, if the goal is still to show categories on the products page this would require a different approach since whatever custom content you add to the shop page will still be queried for even when you’ve set the shop to show categories first via the WooCommerce settings. Have you considered creating a separate page which would contain a category grid element which you could link to from your menu as the shop landing page?

Yes, I thought, but when I do this breadcrumb does not appear the link to the categories page, surely I would have to install some plugin for that, right? I wanted to avoid installing a new plugin.

Hey metropoleonline,

You can actually add the following in a child theme functions.php to alter where the home link in the WooCommerce breadcrumbs will go:


/**
 * Replace the home link URL
 */
add_filter( 'woocommerce_breadcrumb_home_url', 'woo_custom_breadrumb_home_url' );
function woo_custom_breadrumb_home_url() {
    return 'http://woocommerce.com';
}

Hey Everyone!

Just as a reminder, Salient v10.5 has been available for a few days now and is a major release. Please read through the update guide here before updating to ensure a smooth transition.

Cheers

Hey,

How does the Ajax Product Filter work? I imported the Ultimate E-commerce theme but only the main product categories are showing on shop page filter widget.

How Can I add other filters here, such as size, color, price etc?

Hey jackcweston,

Salient provides styling for the plugin YITH WooCommerce Ajax Product Filters, which is what is shown in the demo. Once you’ve installed that plugin you can add the widgets via Appearance > Widgets in the WP admin panel.

Cheers
