Can you put the categories in the display of search results: this is the modification in search.php to make it work:

Old line:

<h2 class=”title”><a href=”<?php the_permalink(); ?>”><?php the_title(); ?></a> <span><?php echo esc_html__( ‘Blog Post’, ‘salient’ ); ?></span></h2>

Change it to:

<h2 class=”title”><a href=”<?php the_permalink(); ?>”><?php the_title(); ?></a> <span><?php $categories = get_the_category($post->ID); if (! empty( $categories ) ){ $output = null; foreach( $categories as $category ) { if ($output != ’’ ){ $output .= ’, ’;} $output .= $category->name; } } else{ $output = ‘Post’; } echo esc_html__($output, ‘salient’); ?></span></h2>

That would be great. Or you could make it an optional setting. Thanks for listening :-)

Hey schermpeter, I’ve noted that idea as an option for the wishlist :)

How to change the ‘Single testimonial’ font color?

Forget about this one! I was able to fix it myself.

Hey picoyellow,

glad to hear you were able to figure it out :)

Hi, now that the portfolio post type has been move into plugins, how do I go about adding code into the templates (single portfolio)? Previously I would have copied the files into the child theme and edited in there.

Hey adayin,

there’s still logic in place within the plugin to allow for you to override via a child theme with the usual templates i.e.

single-portfolio.php <br /> 
template-portfolio.php <br /> 

The same functions which used to overwritable that are now within the plugin can also be copied into a child functions.php as well.

Have you moved any templates/functions into a child and are not seeing them overwrite?

Cheers

Thanks for your reply. Do you have a guide to how the new functionality is used? I have various shortcodes that I need to put in portfolio single template to add to the look and feel of the page design.

Hey adayin,

where do you need the shortcodes to go in the single template? It would just be a matter of copying the single-portfolio.php file from salient-portfolio/includes/front-end as well as the “partials” folder into a child theme. The child structure would look like so: https://ibb.co/C5GYcvh

Hello,

The portfolio on this demo doesn’t seem to be working: Minimal Portfolio.

https://dev.fiadelarose.com/

It’s freshly uploaded, and I’m not sure what’s wrong.

Many thanks,

Liam

Hey Liam, from looking at the page source, only one project seems to have a featured image set, is that correct? When using a masonry portfolio, there needs to be at least one project with the “regular” size selected for “Masonry Item Sizing”, and the only project which appears to have an image is set to “Wide + Tall”. Can you try uploading an image for one of the other projects that is set to regular?

HI there, I’m having some issues with the Envira photo gallery plugin. The pagination is broken. I have turned pagination for my galleries on – however when I click “next” or the number 2 to go to the second page of the gallery, it just reloads the first page. This problem has only just started happening so I believe there is a conflict somewhere with the Salient theme. I have uninstalled the pagination plugin (it’s made by Envira) but that doesnt fix anything. The only solution is to turn it off and have the whole gallery load… which isn’t ideal when the gallery has more than 250 photos. Please help!

Hey mbachl,

Could you kindly open a ticket in regards on the support forum with the page URL and more information about the setup. Since you mentioned it just started happening, can you let us know if you recently updated your version of the theme or the Envira plugin? https://themenectar.ticksy.com

Thanks in advance

I am having major issues with that website. It’s asked me to change my password, which I have tried, and it tells me it isn’t strong enough. This is even with upper case, lower case and other characters. I also renewed my support last night and it still wouldn’t let me submit a ticket. Can you suggest another way of contacting you?

There’s usually a few hour delay between renewing a support license and Ticksy, are you still unable to open a ticket? If you’d prefer to use email, you can also reach out via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

I updated the theme this morning and now on certain elements I am getting a gap on the left side? https://ibb.co/ZGtgP0w

Hey msurma00,

Hi! i have managed to edit the .po file, to change the “next and previous project” and “back to all projects” buttons, but after uploading the edited .po file back, nothing changed. is there anything i should do more? any setting to apply?

Hey crdesign1,

What version of the theme are you using and did you also save the .po in your current language code?

Cheers

Please Fix this bug: and add a SSL check for background images:

There is a problem with HTTPS (SSL) and background images on pages, which will loose you the HTTPS status in the browser. This can be easily fixed by adding: nectar_ssl_check(...) Where: in file: nectar: helpers: page-header.php

You need to fix it 2x: First in this line:

if(!empty($bg) && $bg != 'none') { ?><div class="page-header-bg-image-wrap" id="nectar-page-header-p-wrap" data-parallax-speed="medium"><div class="page-header-bg-image" style="background-image: url(<?php echo $bg; ?>);"></div></div> <?php  }

Change to:

if(!empty($bg) && $bg != 'none') { ?><div class="page-header-bg-image-wrap" id="nectar-page-header-p-wrap" data-parallax-speed="medium"><div class="page-header-bg-image" style="background-image: url(<?php echo nectar_ssl_check($bg); ?>);"></div></div> <?php  }

And this line:

<div class="page-header-bg-image" style="background-image: url(<?php echo esc_url( $bg_img ); ?>);"></div>

Change this to:

<div class="page-header-bg-image" style="background-image: url(<?php echo esc_url( nectar_ssl_check($bg_img) ); ?>);"></div>

I hope you can change it in the source. Thanks!

Hey schermpeter,

I’ve noted to add this into the next release :)

Cheers

Thanks!

You’re welcome schermpeter :)

any way to have the ken burns effect simillar to this one https://www.tekdom.es/ so the transition between slider is smoother? thanks

Hey dimage, as of Salient v10.0, there’s been an option for a ken burns effect in the Nectar Slider. You can activate it when editing the Nectar Slider element in your page builder. Here’s an example of it in use: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-ecommerce-ultimate

Hi, is it possible to filter blog posts per category – like in portfolio? Found some feature requests in this timeline. If its still not possible I´d like to add another +1 for this feature. Thanks a lot!

Hey vizion-dan, thanks for the +1 :)

Hi, how to get the text in nectar button in different color: http://nieuw.finestri.nl/home/

Dear Salient team,

First of all, congratulations for your work on this theme!

I would like to ask you, how can I remove the Post Excerpts in the blog page to make the page feeling more minimal (keep only the: post title+category+date)

I have Masonry blog no sidebar (classic style).

My site: https://iliaslois.com/archive

Thank you in advance! Keep up the great work.

Ilias

Hey Ilias, thanks a lot :)

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


.ascend .masonry-blog-item .inner-wrap .excerpt {
  display: none;
}

Cheers

Hey Themenectar, I loved your theme but even with your optimization documents, its still slow. Any new ideas to speed up the theme?

Yes of course, https://www.farkindalikyazarligi.com my website. I use litespeed cache but it does not make too much difference. There are lots of plugins recommended in general such as w3cache, wp supercache etc. What would be the best choice for salient?

Also, could you let me know that how could I remove the author of blog posts, since I do not use the same name? I do not with it to show up.

Hey Orhangok,

1. It looks like your caching expiration needs to be changed: https://gtmetrix.com/reports/www.farkindalikyazarligi.com/yLY0kVch the docs we have on using W3 Total Cache also provide setting screenshots. Is there any reason you opted to use litespeed caching instead? I would recommend updating to the current release, as Salient has be reworked quite a bit and the performance is better as of version 10.5. Also, once you’ve updated, if you want to give the user the fastest loading experience possible I would recommend disabling the page transitions via the Salient options panel. Keeping that on will actually give the appearance of a slower site.

2. There’s an option to hide the blog author in the Salient options panel > blog tab as of v9.0

Hello. How to scroll to and open a toggle with an anchor link in the top menu?

Hey mirazoqui, sorry about that – one further mod would be needed. Please reach out via the contact form on my author page so I can helper out directly https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Thanks in advance

Hi. I wrote in the form that you told me: https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar but I did not have any answer. Is there a solution for this problem?

Hey mirazoqui, thanks for your patience – I located your initial email earlier today and responded in regards.

Is it possible to reduce top and bottom padding on just the mobile menu? Thanks

This doesn’t seem to be working, would the min-height of the header space need to be altered also?

Fixed it just needed to add .material Thanks

Glad you sorted it MarcGarner.

Cheers

I am using the body boarder Passepartout, but the grid section I have created on the homepage is not as wide as the rest of the content. Is it possible to make it the same width without it looking strange on mobile?

http://www.track68.com Thanks.

Hey MarcGarner, since your body border matches your page BG color, you would need to use css like the following in order to make it align:


@media only screen and (min-width: 1000px) {
#categorygrid > .span_12 {
   margin-left: -1%;
   width: 102%;
}
}

Works great, thank you. Awesome support as always!

You’re welcome MarcGarner :)

Hi, Need a little help, How I can organize my portfolio item list in horizontal like this page http://www.jordantparrott.com/portfolio/

Hey ferreirex,

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


body .portfolio-items[data-ps="8"] .col {
    position: relative!important;
    top: auto!important;
    left: 0!important;
    transform: none!important
}

If you limit the height with CSS, your images will get squished:

.portfolio-items[data-ps="8"] .col img {
    height: 100px!important;
}

Thanks, works perfect ;)

You’re welcome ferreirex :)

Hi ThemeNectar,

What options are there for customising Carousel items, and where would I find how to edit this?

https://prnt.sc/nzppau

I am trying to make it work for a car hire business, so I would like to change ‘Add to cart’ to ‘Read more’, ‘Quick View’ can stay the same, and then I would like to add an additional ‘Book Now’ button bottom right.

Additionally instead of only showing the dollar amount (e.g. ’$22’), I would like it to display the amount as per day (e.g. ’$22 per day’) but can’t see how to change this. Is this possible?

Thanks,

Hey marklovin,

The product carousel option within the WooCommerce products element will output based on the “product style” you have set in the Salient options panel > wooCommerce tab. To modify that, you would need to copy the relevant display function from nectar/helpers/woocommerce into a child theme functions.php

The function that would be used based on your screenshot would be “nectar_product_thumbnail_minimal”

Cheers
