Hi ThemeNectar, I’ve got a problem with a search bar, on mobile “search” placeholder is cutted in half and on desktop browser Firefox color changes from black to gray. Here’s the screenshot of the issues : https://pasteboard.co/IiEzXJP.jpg

Thanks in advance for help :)

Hey nklski :)

1. The search text getting cut in Safari was fixed in 10.5.1 – please update in regards

2. Firefox automatically reduces the opacity of placeholders, but you can change that by adding this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:


::-moz-placeholder{
opacity:1
}

Cheers

​Hello, the latest version of Salient (v10.5.1) completely breaks and will not work at all on older ios devices, specifically ios 10.3.3. Even the ​salient promo site (http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-promo/) will not allow you to scroll if you view it on ios 10.3.3. I have tested it on both safari and chrome apps.

The demo I am using for my website is the classic one page (http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-one-page/). The version you are showing via this link still loads fine on ios 10.3.3 (but it appears to be v10.5)​. Using this same demo breaks with v10.5.1.

Please let me know if there is a fix or if I need to revert back to an older version of Salient.

Thank you.

Hey YVRtom, a fix for that issue was included in 10.5.2 which was released earlier today. The issue was related to the Material theme skin: http://themenectar.com/changelogs/salient.html Let me know if you’re still having any issues after updating.

Cheers

Thank you for responding so quickly. I just updated to 10.5.2 and it has resolved the issue.

Glad to hear YVRtom :)

Hi there,

I was curious how to implement the “nectar-highlighted-text” on the bottom of the e-commerce demo example. Love the theme!

Thanks

Hey waynesworld604,

that’s a page builder element which became available in v9.0.

There’s also a Salient Studio template called “Single Word Text Highlight” which you can add to any page to inspect for an example. Are you not seeing the element available in your page builder? https://ibb.co/7rjph2p

Cheers

Thanks for the reply! What’s the quickest way to update the theme? I’m on v8.5.3 and I don’t see an option to update like my other themes

Hey, you can use the Envato market plugin or any of the methods described in the docs here: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/updating-salient/

Keep in mind that 10.5 is a major release and you’ll need to read through this article before proceeding http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/important-salient-update-for-new-envato-requirements/

Cheers :)

how can i remove the title header from single portfolio pages? i tried to pull code from other comments but it didn’t seem to work.

Hey shea5,

could you kindly share your URL in regards so I can take a look why the snippets did not work for you?

Thanks in advance

Hi there,

I’ve this website where the header image has a specific shape as you can see. On smaller screens it shows perfectly but on bigger screens the ‘shape’ is gone or different. The image is 1500px wide. Any idea how to fix this for bigger screens? See image with bigger screens here:https://ibb.co/jHLDbZz

Hey Abbenhues,

could you kindly share the actual URL so I can take a look to help out?

Cheers

Sorry, here you go: https://oes.kleidi.nl/

Hey Abbenhues, in order to get it to flow the same on all screen sizes you could add add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:


body #page-header-bg[data-bg-pos="center"] .page-header-bg-image {
    background-position: center bottom;
    height: 100.2%;
}

Hello

Hey nedana,

You can reach out via the contact form on my author page to share the URL in private https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Could you also let me know if you’re seeing the same issue on the live demos in IE11?

Thanks in advance

hello,

message send..

Thanks nedana

Hello. Is it possible to build a custom product page with this theme? I don’t want the standard woocommerce elements. I’m referring to a template from scratch which I can set to be the product page. Thanks!

Hey MarketOn :)

There’s no built in functionality in Salient which allows you to do that. It would require the use of a plugin or some custom modding through a child theme.

Cheers

Thanks for your fast reply! Can you recommend a plugin which does this?

Hey MarketOn, unfortunately I haven’t personally used any which would add that. However, if you find one and there’s any conflicting issues with Salient just let me know.

Cheers

how to add additional content to the menu? Same with this https://cloud.mail.ru/public/4Pcg/5LQXkaNx6

Hey redPoint_almaty, if you’re trying to add in items like that into the off canvas menu area, you would need to do so via widgets. You can assign any widgets to the “Off Canvas Menu” area in Appearance > Widgets.

Hello,

We don’t find any “toggle” or “faq” element in the page-builder provided with the theme. Can we add a compatible pack of elements to compensate? Which pack of elements do you recommend?

Best regards,
Françoise.

Hey Françoise,

Can you verify that in your WPBakery Page Builder settings > Roll Manager that the “elements” field is set to All? https://ibb.co/VM4Mykp If it already is, please reach out via the contact form on my author page with a temporary admin login so that I can take a closer look https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Thanks in advance

Hi,

I checked that and yes, the “elements” field is set to “all”. I’m sending you the credentials so that you can have a look.

Best regards,
Françoise.

Thanks you Françoise.

Hi there,

The titles on the portfolio page do not see to be mobile responsive. They look great on desktop, but on mobile the text is either bunched up if it goes over two lines, or disappears off the screen if it is a long single word. I can’t find any settings in Salient to resolve this. The theme and Wordpress are all updated to the most recent versions. Any thoughts on this?

Hey nemorin2 , I’d be glad to assist if you can share your URL.

Thanks in advance

Sure, it’s www.nemorin.com and the portfolio is http://nemorin.com/view-our-work/

Thanks nemorin2,

you can use the following in the custom css box located located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:


@media only screen and (max-width: 1000px) {
.portfolio-items .col .inner-wrap .vert-center h3 {
    font-size: 20px!important;
    line-height: 30px!important;
}
}

Hi, Since v10.5.1 impossible to translate “read article” string from recents posts module. I reported it to support but no solution works. Is it possible to fix this problem ? Thank you ! Best regards

Hey Cavorm, that string was added into the salient-core plugin .pot in 10.5.1. Have you checked there since updating?

Perfect ! Thank you !

You’re welcome Cavor :)

For Accessibility purposes, I am required to add landmarks to my salient theme. In particular <main>...</main> and <footer>...</footer> tags surrounding the appropriate main content and footer content. What is the best practice to add this to Salient?

Hey jwebadgility, as of Salient v10.5, there are hooks you can use to add the opening/closing tags around the page content and within the footer. They are as follows:
nectar_hook_before_content

nectar_hook_after_content
nectar_hook_before_footer_widget_area

nectar_hook_after_footer_widget_area

If you’re using an older release, you could copy the page.php and footer.php into your child theme for modding.

http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-agency/full-width-masonry/

Hi, how did you build this page?

I am finding it impossible to build using the editor. I have enabled custom content and added a couple of test items, but nothing shows up.

Our test page is https://discovergrandprix.com/port-test/

There is no instructions anywhere on this site, or the ticksy site to help. It’s a frustrating to use function.

Hey johnlmccurdy, the portfolio from the agency demo does indeed use a few projects set to custom content, and they also will get imported when importing the agency demo.

I am seeing that you project which you have set to use custom content is displaying: https://ibb.co/LhcvrJb do you have more items with further content that are hidden?

I looks like the option to add a “home slider” is missing from the 10.5 update in visual composer? Looks like you can only add a “Nectar Slider”? or am I missing something. I need a video slider and “Nectar Slider” doesn’t do this.

Just updated to 10.5.1 and it is still missing

Hey wallyd, the Home Slider was never available as a page builder element. The only way to assign it is by using one of the “Home” templates in your page attributes metabox: https://ibb.co/YNR1WJ9 If you’re not seeing that, can you verify that you have installed the Salient Home Slider plugin?

Hello,

We’re working on a client’s site using Salient and we want to submit a ticket but we don’t find the purchase or license code in the theme settings. We don’t want to bother our client with this, how do we retrieve it in your theme settings?

Best regards,
Françoise.

Hey RadCon,

There’s no purchase code that gets stored within the theme settings itself. You can find your purchase code in your account on here: https://help.market.envato.com/hc/en-us/articles/202822600-Where-Is-My-Purchase-Code-

Cheers

Hello,

Did you read my message entirely? It’s not from our account that this theme has been purchased for this site. And we don’t want to bother our client with this.

Regards,
Françoise.

Hey Françoise,

I personally can not assist in getting your purchase code from another account, you will need to contact Envato directly here in regards: https://help.market.envato.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

Hi, I have updated to the latest 10.5.1 but getting quite a few issues. The main issue is that the hamburger menu is always in showing on the left of the main menu. I have put back my previous 10.0.2 version which was working fine.

Would you recommend keeping 10.0 running in the future, or would this cause security / other issues at some point?

Hey B_kalisvaart,

Are you using a child theme? If so, did you ensure that it’s not causing the issue by temporarily activating the parent theme? Also, did you deactivate any caching plugins you may have had active to rule that out too?

You can reach out directly via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar when you update again and I will gladly take a look to assist with any issues. It would be more practical to do the update so you’re not stuck on an old version.

Cheers

DELETED

Hi, we have a problem with nectar slider. We have 2 buttons, in mobile the buttons are very small. Heading and caption works fine in mobile and responsive, but buttons no. Exists any css to increase button size & button font size in mobile? Exits any css to put one button on top of another and not one next to the other on a mobile? thanks

Hey CAPBCN,

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


@media only screen and (max-width: 690px) {
#ajax-content-wrap .swiper-slide .buttons > div {
    display: block;
}
#ajax-content-wrap .nectar-slider-wrap .swiper-slide .button a {
  padding: 10px!important;
  font-size: 14px!important;
}
}

Cheers

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:

1. https://www.dropbox.com/s/v58928dvuierboi/cart%20issue.png?dl=0 2. https://www.dropbox.com/s/x7cmk6750qr82k2/cart%20issue%202.png?dl=0

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/F8zbVmv

I 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 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
