hello. i updated to the newest version of the theme and had a few issues. some i was able to resolve but I cannot find a fix for these issues.
The cart icon comes out to the far left and there is a small question mark to the far right. Also, when hovering over the cart icon next to the phone number, it shows cart contents twice. Anyone have a fix for these issues? Here are some screenshots:

Any help is appreciated!
Hey genm,
That looks like it might be occurring due to modded files with your child theme which are outdated. Do you have a header.php file in your child? If so, please temporarily deactivate your child theme to verify it’s not conflicting
Cheers
thank you for getting back to me. my developer deactivated the header.php in the child theme and activated the one on the standard theme. It fixed the issue with the double carts, but now the menu is all wonky looking. The menu is now to the left and the words are coming out on top of each other as opposed to previously when everhting was centered right and the page names were all next to each other. How can I fix this? https://marriagebymail.com/
Hey genm,
add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
#header-outer[data-format="centered-menu"] .logo-spacing {
width: 20px;
}
Alternatively, in the Salient options panel > general settings > functionality tab you could activate the option for “Extended Responsive Design” to give you navigation the needed space.
Cheers
Hi, I am making comment behalf of my client. Former web designer bought and used this theme for his site:
After updating to the latest version I discovered that “Header Dropdown Style” option under “Dropdown/Megamenu” where I can select either “Classic or Minimal” at Salient theme option is no more available and it affected our website’s menu style.
Please look into this.
https://ibb.co/F8zbVmvI love this theme and I’m buying a personal license soon because we always depend on the previous designer before we get support and update.
Thanks for understanding.
Hey oltimal,
that option has been removed as of 10.5, if you would like to continue with the legacy style you can add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
.sf-menu >li ul {
padding: 0;
}
.sf-menu ul li {
border-bottom: 1px solid #000;
}
.sf-menu >li ul a {
padding: 12px 6px;
}
Cheers
Hello ThemeNectar, Could you please consider bring the “legacy style” back to Salient? My client and even myself don’t like the way the new drop down is boxed. Although the CSS provided fixed a little bit of the issue, it doesn’t still look like it used to look.
I can assure you that I will buy three license for my upcoming project if this is consider and looked into in the coming update.
This is the only theme I have ever used that worked with WP Bakery and elementor without any issue.
Please, please, please, please. please….
Hey optimal,
I’ve noted your +1 for the idea. If you’d like to share your current site URL in regards I’d be glad to provide you further CSS for that style
Cheers
How can I reach you via email? I have some other ideas I do like to share too

Hi, when are you planning to develop the lazy loading for images that require to be loaded for calculations (masonry portfolio/image gallery/blog etc)?
Hey magenta-digital2013, it’s on the to-do list but there’s no ETA as of now. As you have probably seen, all of our attention has recently been on 10.5
Hi,
I noticed a few issues after the upgrade to v.10.51. 1) The Menu Bar Cart does not add up the Subtotal (Says $0.00) 2) The Cart page shows some Product images very large, and some regular size. 3) Homepage content buttons are not going to the default color / size that they were prior. These are the only minor things I can find so far. https://athletesbest.com/ Appreciate the help. Thank youHey superhealth,
1. The header cart is an instance of the core WooCommerce cart widget i.e. “WC_Widget_Cart” which hasn’t changed in recent releases. Since Salient doesn’t do any processing to calculate the subtotal, can you quickly verify that no other third party plugins are causing this issue?
2. Add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
.woocommerce-cart table.cart img:not([srcset]) {
width: 90px;
}
3. Could you 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
Hello, I have question about WPML translation plugin…you theme should be 100% working with it. Added new language and then click “Translate” page then I get all needed translation fields and after finishing translation…page dont have “Hero” image (page heading setting) example image and correct text alignment and also if I have custom CSS on page this is not copied to new page. Am I doing something wrong, some wrong setting??? Would love to have custom css field in translation field as well and definitely it should show page heading image.
Any help? Thanks.
Hey PriitCool, Have you reached out to WPML in regards? They did a full test with the theme last year to ensure compatibility. If there’s a new issue which they are unaware of, it would be helpful to get a link to the support forum where you have an open ticket for group correspondnece.
Thanks, will open ticket in WPML forum and give you updates 
Thank you PriitCool 
Hi guys i have some problems with the leaflet position in an full width column. The holding wpb_row get a margin of -219px this is too much so that the leaflet map is not on the left side and start after circa 100px. can you help me? You can see it here: https://bit.ly/2MwIqp0
Hey haoe,
Do you have a modified header.php file in your child theme? If so, it will need to be updated to relfect the current version of Salient. The issue is occurring because the normal Salient body attributes are not getting output onto your body tag. If the problem is not because of your child theme (if you can verify the parent theme has the same issue), please reach out via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar
Thanks in advance
Problem is also there with the parent theme, send you some information!
Thanks haoe
Hello,
We like your theme but we run into 1 small issue. When you scroll or slide to the next section on this website on safari: http://moediantobv.com
The page often doesn’t start at the top so you can see the title. Is there a simple fix for this?
Hey TwitchvertisingNL,
which version of Safari are you seeing that occur on? So far from testing on 12, I am unable to see that behavior.
Thanks in advance
Safari version 12.03
So this what I see when I scroll to the second section: http://prntscr.com/nz7b8f This is what I should see: http://prntscr.com/nz7bec
This also happens when you scrol the first time to the section. If you scroll back and forth it will work. Also you really have to scroll so don’t click on the buttons to the right.
Hello Envato team !
First of all thank you for all your work, especially on the major update. You’ve done a great work.
About this, I’ve got an issue just before i made the major update 10.5 on my website : www.lestriconautes.com especially on this URL : https://lestriconautes.com/en/free-knitting-pattern-women
As you can see, my page sub menu has a strange position, and is on the middle of the page. Before the update, it was a sticky element which follow you when you scroll up and down on the page.
Thanks for all and have a nice day
Hey Securipro
I can’t seem to replicate that locally. Can you please first try to temporarily disable the your minifcation/caching plugin to rule out a caching issue? If that does not solve all the issues, please reach out via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar
Cheers
How do I find the reference for the icons – image=”icon-tablet”
Hey MarkusB, is that an attribute you’re pulled from an icon shortcode? If so, when you click on the nectar shortcode generator and choose “Icon”, a full list of all icons can be seen: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/salient-shortcodes-plugin/
Hello, Im looking through your passed comment for a couple of my problems and I was hoping you can clarify a few things to a person who barely dabbles in code:
1.) add text “menu” next to the hamburger button? You mentioned that there is only a css custom solution i was hoping you could tell me how / where can i append the text to my idea was here
.slide-out-widget-area-toggle div a:before {
content: "menu";
}
However this doesnt seem right, also it doesnt change colors like the hamburger icon does .
2.) I want to add a Book Now Button next to the hamburger icon kind of like https://avilalighthousesuites.com does it, does your theme support that? if so where , if not how do i use the functions.php child theme to make it do it?
3.) I want to add text above the dropdown of the home page ..something like “explore now” and when they click the button it takes them lower to the next section of the page, would you mind helping me out on this?
thank you for you time.
Actually I found the answer to number 1 its here : https://themenectar.ticksy.com/article/5435/
Do you know how to make the hamburger icon bigger?
answer to 2 – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_I1WXaxVopk
Hey pal605427,
Glad to hear you found some of the answers you were looking for
There’s a video in the docs explaining how animated anchors work here: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/theme-options/general-settings/#functionality
Also, you can make the off canvas menu icon larger by adding this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
#header-outer #top nav ul .slide-out-widget-area-toggle a {
transform: scale(1.5);
}
Cheers
Hello – Is there a way to do a SCROLL parallax instead of MOUSE BASED? I can successfully do mouse based parallax, but I have a 2 layer image where I want the second layer to scroll while the first layer is either fixed or scrolls slower. How can I accomplish this?
Hey snassi11, Salient offers a normal (single layer) scroll parallax row background option, however the plugin which Salient uses for the mouse parallax does not offer a scroll based option. Modifying that would require custom development.
How can I call # sidewidgetarea from another custom button
Hey ziccia,
That would require a modification to the js/init.js file as of now, however I’ve noted to add a custom class trigger in the next release.
Cheers
If I was seeing it in other comments but I could not do it !!
$body.on('click', '.slide-out-widget-area-toggle:not(.std-menu) a.closed:not(.animating),.button-link .nectar-button', function () {Help me with this!!
Hey ziccia, that code is still accurate. It’s showing where in the init.js file would need to be changed to add in a custom trigger classname. You can change the ”.button-link .nectar-button” to any class you want to trigger it.
I can not do it
Hey ziccia, I added this functionality into the last release (10.5.3). As long as you’re on that version you can now simply add the following class onto any anchor:
nectar-ocm-trigger-open
Hi Again, for the “Creative Corporate” theme how do I change the colour of the fancy box icons? Like change the colour of the Computer icon and so on..
Hey Joshuats,
There’s a few different fancy box styles used within that demo, can you let me know specifically which style you have set on your fancy box? i.e. “Color box basic”, “Color box hover effect” etc.
Thanks in advance
Hi, I mean the Icons.. I have a computer Icon, a phone icon and so on.. would love to change the colours of each one individual Icon, not the box.
And yes it’s set to hover effect.
Hey Joshuats, anyway that you can share your page URL so I can provide an example snippet?
Hi there—I would like my videos to auto play whenever they are activated through lightbox? At the bottom of my page https://thefictionstoryroom.com/screenwriting-tips-and-articles/ you will notice the user has to click twice in order to get the video to play instead of one time.
Hey JayCarver,
unfortunately Chrome and now most other modern browsers will block autoplay functionality for videos with sound, you can read more about this in the ”autoplay restrictions” section in the Vimeo docs https://help.vimeo.com/hc/en-us/articles/115004485728-Autoplaying-and-looping-embedded-videosThe same thing also applies for youtube embeds.
Cheers
Hi thanks ThemeNectar good to know, however this article is referencing autoplaying embedded videos that automatically begin playing when a user just arrives on the page. My videos are not embedded on the page and all are user initiated and only play once the user clicks the play button and it launches in a lightbox—however now they have to click play 2 times.
Hey JayCarver, the lightbox is still using a regular video embed and adds it to the page dynamically once the play button is clicked. The lightbox plugin already has logic to attempt to force the embed to play once launched, but most browsers prevent that and see the situation as the same as trying to force a regular embed to autoplay. Internet Explorer doesn’t prevent it, so if you test in there you should see it playing once clicked.
Using the fancy box set to colour box hover effect. Is it possible to show the background before hover? So that the animation and colour change happenes on hover but the background image can already be seen before hover. Thanks
Hey MarcGarner,
You can use the following in regards:
.nectar-fancy-box[data-style="color_box_hover"] .box-bg {
opacity: 1;
}
Cheers
That shows the background image but also the colour. I would like to display just the image background and then the colour overlay appears on hover as it normally would. Thanks.
Hey MarcGarner,
Change the snippet to:
.nectar-fancy-box[data-style="color_box_hover"] .box-bg {
opacity: 1;
}
.nectar-fancy-box[data-style="color_box_hover"].using-img:not(:hover) .box-bg:after {
opacity: 0;
}

Friends. Thanks for the excellent theme. One of the best I have used.
Recently, I have been asked to add audio in the website, just wanted to know is there any audio element to play mp3s in the theme like we have for video? Unable to find one. As a workaround I am using wordpress audio shortcode or the raw html audio tag.
Hey nehaldamania, thanks for the kind words
There is no Salient specific audio page builder element, however there is already styling for the built in audio shortcode. Is that shortcode giving you any issue?
Thanks for the reply. It seems that the Audio shortcode only works if I upload the audio(mp3 file) on the wordpress website itself. As I have to work with many audio files, I am planning to upload the audios on Google drive. But, I am unable to use the audio shortcode with Google drive download links. So, I am using normal raw html audio tag for now with the google drive audio links. However, the raw html audio tag looks different on different browsers. Not a big deal for us now. But, if you have any pointers for me to put me in the right direction, that would be great. Thanks
Hey nehaldamania,
THe WP audio shortcode should allow an external URL, is there anyway you could provide a sample mp3 URL so that I can test it?
Cheers
Hi,
Here is the sample mp3 URL: https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=1FnHq0_NlMucaWe2W531mUtDP7deV2FTyIt works with an html audio tag as shown below. However, doesn’t work with WP audio shortcode. <audio width=”200” height=”32” controls=”controls” src=”https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=1FnHq0_NlMucaWe2W531mUtDP7deV2FTy” type=”audio/mp3”> </audio>
Thanks nehaldamania, the reason it won’t parse in the audio shortcode is because of the lack of file extension on the URL. If it was stored externally with a .mp3, it should work. I’ve confirmed that the above URL will not work however with or without Salient being the active theme.
If you add this to the cart, the cart is home page and the checkout is home page, how do I fix this?
https://exposure.com.au/product/morning-glow-preset/Do i need to reimport the view cart, and checkout? If so, how do i do it?
Hey gkhz,
What pages do you have assigned as the “cart” and “checkout” in WooCommerce > Status > Tools? https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/woocommerce-pages/Cheers
Did you guys know the flip boxes when accessed through safari white out and glitch around?
Here is a Video recording of the boxes glitching out in safari. https://youtu.be/PE1N7_n3tWo
Hey buaerhaus,
that should not occur when using Salient v10.5+ can you verify that you’re on that version or above? If so, could you please share an example URL so I can take a look at the setup?
Thanks in advance
Off canvas shop sidebar where we could put the filters would be great. With a button or hover activated button for the filters to slide in.
Hey MarcGarner,
This idea has also been noted
It would be great to have grids on mobile such as shop category grids which can be configured to remain in a grid layout on mobiles rather than just changing to a single column list with one square under another.
Hey MarcGarner, thanks for the request. I’ve noted the idea on the wishlist.
