Hi Theme Nectar, Can I do the picture hotspots linkable? I.E. Can I add a caption and link and once you click it will open a new window for the specific link I typed?
Hey maurinoloureiro, you should be able to add in regular HTML anchors into the hotspot text itself, however the actual hotspot icons can’t become links.
So, once I scroll over it will display the link or message but it won’t be clickable?
If you set the Image With Hotspot element to “Show on Click” for the “Tooltip Functionality” then your anchors which you have inside of the tooltip can be clicked after the users opens the tooltip.
Is there a way to specify column spacing in pixels? I’m using rounded-corner boxes and the default spacing is a bit wide. Any way to specify a smaller number? Maybe 8px or so?
Hey arteest, add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
@media (min-width: 690px) {
body .col {
margin-right: 8px;
}
}
Hello! where can i find the nectar/tinymce/shortcode-processing.php file in the most recent version? there is no tinymce folder… thanks!!!
Hey paulinavargasin,
You can now find the relevant files in the salient-shortcodes plugin. The full path to head to would be wp-content/plugins/salient-shortcodes/includes/frontend

Hello, Please i need quick help. I have the latest theme and i have discovered that when ever i install and activate woocommerce, i can no longer save theme options it brings an error till i disable woocommerce. please help
Thanks in advance
Is it possible to have the woocommerce header shopping cart icon only visible when items are added in the cart, on the ascend skin? if this can be done, would prefer css rather than php
thanks in advance
Hey timzyhasanego,
Add this into the custom css box:
.cart-menu-wrap:not(.has_products) {
display: none;
}
Cheers
Hey, this worked but doesn’t on mobile and also the space where the cart appears doesn’t disappear when it isn’t active and because i have the youtube icon and search bar visible it just looks odd, is there a workaround for this by any chance? thank you for the assistance
2. also is there a possible way to have the product archive page bg color & minimal design product item color as black while retaining the text + icon as white? i managed to do this by myself but got stuck when i made the
.ascend .icon-salient-cart:before { color: #FFFFFF !important; }
which in turn made the navigation cart white also so on the product pages its not visible. i don’t know what the possible workaround this could be
3. also the rotating wheel that animates after the cart icon on the minimal design product item .icon-salient-cart:before is clicked. i couldn’t figure out how to make that white, would greatly appreciate any assistance you can give.
4. lastly, when i hover over my ‘more information’ quick view option, its black text but once hovered over its white text and black line i tried to change it and i think it inherited my footer hover which is grey text and white hover, is there a way to isolate it to just hover with the line no changes to the text color
Thanks in advance.
Hey timzyhasanego, do you have the theme & active support purchased from another user account? There doesn’t appear to be an active license on this username. Could you kindly open a ticket on our support forum in regards with the site URL so we can take a closer look into this: https://themenectar.ticksy.com
Thanks in advance
Bugs in 10.5.
Hi, Salient. I am using your theme for several years and you alway made a good job. Now it seems to be it´s the first time there are a lot of bugs in new version. This time I report a bug by using the Salient galery in posts:
I inserted a galery via wordpress editor (Classic!) but in frontend ther is no salient galery. Does not work. Postformat is marked as galery correctly and salient button for galery slider is on too. Also when reloding/saving a post, the editor always jumps to the fu** gutenberg editor, so you alway has to switch again. No good.
You can see the result here: https://www.born-creative.de/test/
If you have further questinons feel free. I´ll help,
Regards, BD.
Hey born-design, 1. If you’d like a copy of the current beta which will correct the single template gallery slider option, please reach out in regards via the contact form on my author page: https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar
2. If you do not wish to use the Gutenberg editor, have you tried to disable it in the WPBakery page builder plugin settings?
Hey, ThemeNectar. Thx 4 immediate response. Problem 2. solved by disabeling the gutenber editor via settings in wp bakery. About problem 1: I´ll stay on 10.0.4 and w8 for next update until all´s fine again. THX again.
There are more bugs I´ve notice. Collecting and reporting to you later.
Greats work. I recommend salient to all people I meet. Regards.
Thanks born-design
Hey! It seems that there is a small bug with the “Creative Hero with Device” element on mobile: there is a space between the device image and the bottom of the section. Do you know how to fix that? Screenshot: https://imgur.com/a/08bCmbP
Thanks,
Hey tovbar,
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: 1000px) {
body .vc_row-fluid .vc_col-sm-10.wpb_column {
margin-bottom: 0;
}
}
Cheers
Works, thanks a lot 
Glad I could help tovbar 
I think it would be a great feature if you would give users the option to load Open San’s locally under the Salient settings rather than fetching it from Google as it slows down the theme a bit. I think a lot of customers would appreciate this feature. Just wanted to suggest this idea.
Hey peterstavrou,
The option for this was added in v10.5.1. It can be found in the Salient options > typography tab at the top – have you updated to the current release yet?
Cheers
oh didn’t know what that did. It might be worth adding that to your documentation. So ticked means it loads external Google fonts and unticked it means it doesn’t load Google font’s right?
Hey peterstavrou, I believe you’re referring to an older option. As of 10.5.1 it’s clearly named in the theme option field: https://ibb.co/xCMFT0b
hi guys, just wondering if there’s any more planned updates for page performance? (particularly using google’s pagespeed insights), the design is absolutely amazing just struggling to justify using it on any of my sites given the bloated dom + css 
Hey steveok,
have you already taken a look into 10.5? Salient was largely rebuilt and the CSS is much more modular now
Cheers
Love the theme. Just noticed the Responsive Options, Border, Animation tabs are not accessible via ipad. I can see/click on the tabs but nothing happens. They just turn blue. Is there a workaround?
Hey arteest, Salient doesn’t modify the core WPBakery functionality for selecting tabs in the page builder, so I’ll try and raise this issue to them as well.
Is anyone having issues with saving Salient theme settings?
I am not able to save any settings changes after WooCommerce plugin was installed and activated. If I disable the WooCommerce plugin, I can save changes again and all works great. As soon as I activate WooCommerce, Salient is not able to save settings. with the following errors:
Popup: “There was a problem with your action. Please try again or reload the page.”
Console error: VM2447:1 POST http://mywebsite.com/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php 404 (Not Found)
The admin-ajax.php exists at this location, it is not missing.
Any clues why WooCommerce breaks the theme settings like this? I really need both…
Hey rumilazzi,
Since this is not a known current issue could you please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so we can take a closer look? Did this issue just start occurring for your recently or has it always happened?
Thanks for responding! It is a new issue as I just added WooCommerce on my site so I can evaluate how it works with Salient. I bought the Salient theme a few years ago and have been very happy with it, so now I was trying to decide if I should get another license for a new site that would have a WooCommerce shop and would be on the same hosting and settings. Unfortunately my support has expired already so I was not able to post a ticket, and was trying to troubleshoot myself for a start. I searched for similar issues in the past. Upgraded my PHP to 7.0.2 which is the latest option on my shared hosting, and set these values per your recommendation in an old post: max_execution_time = 60, memory_limit = 256M, post_max_size = 48M, upload_max_filesize = 48M. Switched to using Salient directly instead of with a child theme. Disabled almost all other plugins besides Salient and WooCommerce, but there’s no change in behavior.
My suspicion is that it may have something to do with redux.min.js?ver=3.6.5:1 as I see this in the console right after the 404, and next to it it says “There was an error saving. Here is the result of your action:” followed by what looks like the entire source of an html page.
I really wanted to play with all settings for the products, but I guess I may need to evaluate by just looking at your demo theme. I am afraid however that the same issue would be present on the new site. Thanks for your attention!
Thanks for the further info rumilazzi, can you also let me know what version of Salient you’re using?
Absolutely everything is latest versions – WP 5.2.1, Salient 10.5.3, WooCommerce 3.6.4
A 404 error coming from an ajax request sounds like it could be getting blocked from the server. Can you check if mod_security is enabled on your setup and if so try to disable it for testing?
Hi, I did look at the phpinfo() output and there is no mod_security mentioned anywhere. Not sure if there is any better way to check.
Hey rumilazzi, have you tried to ask your hosting company if they have it installed or any other security module which would prevent the ajax request? The only difference with the theme options panel when WooCommerce is enabled is the additional 16 WooCommerce specific options. It’s possible that with those, the total string being saved is seen as “too large” by something on your server and prevented.
Thanks for responding. I have submitted a ticket with my hosing support and hope they will find and resolve the issue.
Quick update with the solution in case anyone else runs into a similar issue. Even though I was not able to see this anywhere, ModSecurity was on and had to be turned off for my domain by the hosting providers. Also had to increase WP memory by adding the following in wp-config file define( ‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ‘256M’ );
Thanks for your help and the awesome theme, ThemeNectar!
Hey rumilazzi, thanks for getting back to me to verify 
Cheers
Heyyy Salient Fam! I have a new client I’d luv to send your way for yet another theme purchase, just one thing they want on scroll animations (like column border animations) to show on mobile view, is this possible yet pls?
Hey sterlingwilliam, not quite yet. We’ve been sousing all of our efforts on the recent rebuilding of Salient: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/important-salient-update-for-new-envato-requirements/
Cheers
Ahhhh WOW that is major! All sounds Good and amazingly Forward (I know Envato/TF has def been changing lately for the developers but also us fav users/purchasers and none of which I have been fond of) SO Kudos all ways to one of my fav ever themes and dev/designer teams @ ThemeNectar! and pls let me know when the mobile animations will be possible and I will def start sending more of my clients your way $alient fam!

I’m using WooCommerce with the “Classic” Product Style. How would I go about making the name of the product a link to go to the product (right now the only way to go to a product is to click on the image.) https://www.prepsos.com/product-category/food-storage/breakfast/
Hey MikeMurphyINC,
There would need to be a modification to the function titled “nectar_product_thumbnail_with_cart” which is located in the Salient/nectar/helpers/woocommerce.php file. You could copy it into your child theme functions.php as well
Cheers
I couldn’t find any place with that function name regarding the product link or permalink. Any idea how I’d actually go about doing this?
do_action( 'woocommerce_shop_loop_item_title' );in salient/woocommerce/content-product.php
I tried wrapping the title with an tag but wasn’t successful as I’m not well versed in php. It is a best UI/UX practice to have the product title linked to the product from a PLP. Do you know what exactly I’d need to do to get this to work?
Hey MikeMurphyINC,
You could change the:
do_action( 'woocommerce_shop_loop_item_title' );
to be this:
echo '<a href="'.get_the_permalink().'">'; do_action( 'woocommerce_shop_loop_item_title' ); echo '</a>';
Brilliant! Thank you!!!
You’re welcome MikeMurphyINC 
Can you help me with the css to change the active and hover colors of the submenu navigation text? https://site-tonight.com/boat/ I want them to be white, and yellow #e6c344 on hover. Didn’t seem to be an easy place to modify this. I tried css myself…but failed.
Hey SiteTonight,
You can use the following:
body .page-submenu li a {
opacity: 1;
}
body .page-submenu li a:hover {
color: #e6c344!important;
}
Cheers
I’m trying to make a custom header area, and installed this plugin https://codecanyon.net/item/ultimate-header-builder-addon-wpbakery-page-builder-formerly-visual-composer/21118792 – my site is www.site-tonight.com/boat – but when I go to the new plugins area to add a new header, the page builder is missing. Pretty sure this is a conflict with Salient’s custom version of the page builder plugin, maybe the solution is obvious to you? http://prntscr.com/o21xjg – I wish Salient had the option to use WPpageBuilder to create a custom header layout. Even something as simple as this is not doable w salient’s core features http://prntscr.com/o21xxt
nvm i fixed it. Had to enable the options in wpbakery>Role Manager 
Glad to hear SiteTonight 
To meet ADA accessibility guidelines, I need to setup my main navigation so that the dropdowns open when a user uses their ‘tab’ key. Basically, the dropdowns have to expand similar to hover, but also with tab. Do you have a suggestion on how to do that in salient/themenectar?
This is how it’s suggested: https://hub.accessible360.com/kb/articles/102
Hey jwebadgility, this functionality was added into Salient in v10.5. You can test it out on the demo: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-promo/
Thanks – I’m not seeing this functionality. My ADA auditors are requesting these changes to our dropdown nav items: 1) Ensure that this dropdown menu does not open on focus. 2) Add an aria-controls attribute to the top menu link which controls the expandable content and set the value of that attribute to equal the id of the tag that wraps the expanded content. Also add an aria-expanded=”true” attribute to that same element when content is expanded, and false otherwise. 3) Ensure that the top nav link can open and close the menu.
Do you have any recommendations on how we can implement these?
Hey jwebadgility,
1. You’re unable to open the dropdown menus on the demo by using tab?
2/3. This was added in 10.5.3: you can see it within the page source code: https://ibb.co/4SrvSqp
hi! i want to know how to hide price if users not log-in, or. user must login into view price.. please let me know, i need change the function.php ?
Hey tohapiliang, add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
boy:not(.logged-in) li.product .price,
boy:not(.logged-in) .summary .price {
display: none!important;
}
your code is not work anymore, hi, if the quickView when not login hide ? i want to custom in function.php in your theme, like this if not login user cant view the price
add_action( ‘woocommerce_variable_sale_price_html’, ‘print_login_to_see’, 10, 2 ); function print_login_to_see() { echo ‘’ . __(’$ (Login to View Prices)’, ‘salient’) . ‘’; }
Hey tohapiliang,
the correct way to handle that via a child functions.php would be:
function cw_change_product_price_display( $price ) {
if( ! is_user_logged_in() ) {
$price = 'Login to View Prices';
}
return $price;
}
add_filter( 'woocommerce_get_price_html', 'cw_change_product_price_display' );
add_filter( 'woocommerce_cart_item_price', 'cw_change_product_price_display' );
Hi, great theme.
One question.
Is it possible to Sort posts using TAGS with this theme?
Example: User clicks certain TAG in the tag cloud and theme diplays all posts (preview) which have this TAG in a page. Similiar logic like in any Webstore where you can Sort products using Size.
Or is this something that is not supported by Wordpress itself?
Thanks
Thanks brorerik,
There’s no additional functionality for tags other than the default WP functionality. When a tag from the tagcloud is clicked, the user will be directed to the archive page. To have it function as a filter instead where dynamic sorting would occur on the same page would require custom development or the use of a plugin which adds that functionality
Cheers
Hi, is there a quick way to have regular parallax effect on salient? I need it, don´t mind if its custom development. If you are so kind to guide me through this I´ll try
Thanks in advance
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.
Hey pleante,
When you say “regular parallax”, are you referring to the multi-layer parallax where many images would make up a scene to parallax on scroll? If so, that’s not possible i’m afraid. Salient offers the option to parallax the BG layer of any row, but it’s limited to a single image.
No, I mean single layer parallax. I can´t find it, I only find the mouse enabled parallax. Where is it?
Nevermind, I already find it.
Another question: Do you offer customisation/feature development services? I´m thinking to start using salient for my agency´s clients.
Thanks in advance, A
Pd: Please answer me to this email: txtmakers.com@gmail.com
Hey pleante, Glad to hear you’ve found the option 
We don’t personally offer customization services at this time. I would recommend taking a look at Envato Studio in regards
Cheers
Hello Support! I want to draw your attention today about salient “10.5.3” update. Today i updated salient to “10.5.3” and my navigation font size increased enormously. You can check this effect on “https://proearthanimalhealth.com”. Would you fix this in next release or i have to fix it using custom CSS? Thanks!!
Hey JennieatPEAH,
It looks like your “Navigation Font” size is set to 20px in the Salient options panel > typography tab, can you please check that field in regards?
Thanks in advance
