Hi Page speed is too slow google suggesting for js and css compress
Hey amit15110003,
JS and CSS minfication is recommended and is not done by default in Salient so that users can still freely inspect/edit the source code. We have documentation on this here: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/performance-optimization-guide/Cheers
Hi there – is there any way we can set a Mega Menu sub menu to 2 columns?
For example:
Level 1 (navigation)
- Level 2 (Title)
—Level 3 (2 columns)
I am currently using ‘megamenu columns-4’ for the title level but would like to make the sub level 2 columns.
Thanks in advance!
Hey GoModernCreative,
this would require some custom CSS – could you kindly share your URL so I can provide an example snippet? 
Cheers
Hey GoModernCreative,
add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
#top nav >ul > .megamenu >ul >li:first-child > ul {
display: flex!important;
flex-wrap: wrap;
}
#top nav >ul > .megamenu >ul >li:first-child > ul > li {
width: 50%;
}
Cheers 
That’s perfect – thanks for your help!
Glad I could help GoModernCreative 
The support ticket system isn’t working. When I try to submit a ticket it never loads a confirmation page. I just purchased support renewal and I need support!
Hey 101management,
I’m sorry about the the issue you encountered earlier. I can see a few tickets titled “Portfolio Sorting” on the forum which have been responded to https://themenectar.ticksy.com/ticket/2089690/ – are you able to access those tickets now?
Hi! I´m wondering if there is a way to add other icon set to use with the fancy box? I hope there is! Thanks in advance
Hey WeboCreativo, adding a custom icon set would require modifying the following file inside of the salient-core plugin: includes/nectar_maps/fancy_box.php However, you could alternatively just enqueue your custom icon family and override one of the existing icons with CSS in the fancy box
Hello,
I am trying to fix the share post function which does not transmit the image of the article in question (https://bit.ly/2Swsu5j).
Do you have a solution ?
Regards,

I am trying to achieve a page like this: https://ibb.co/93hfyzB
My site is not made from the portfolio demo – I don’t know if this is necessary? Link: https://mikaelboel.com/
Should I use the Salient Portfolio plugin or make a page as a portfolio? I can’t seem to find where to add photos?
Hey boelmikael, if you’re just trying to create an image gallery grid, you could bypass using the portfolio element and instead use the “Image gallery” page builder element. Here are some docs on achieving that specific style: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/galleries/#imagegrid
Yes, this is what I am using at the moment. However, I would love to have the filter feature – is this possible with the Image Gallery? https://mikaelboel.com/galleri/
Hey boelmikael, unfortunately the sorting option is only available for the portfolio itself. You’ll need to install that plugin and create separate projects for each grid item so you can assign them a category for sorting purposes.
Okay, I’ll have to check that out.
Maybe you could help me with another issue – I am currently using the Image Gallery grid, but when I visit the page, all the images load in a strange way: See screenshot here: https://ibb.co/ZWvhB3X
Visit the actual page here: https://mikaelboel.com/galleri/
I have to reload the page in order to see the images correctly. Any idea what could be causing this?
Hey boelmikael,
That issue is occurring due to the option enabled within the jetpack plugin for lazy loading images: https://jetpack.com/support/lazy-images/I am having trouble with a button it is showing up faded. please see the “sign up today” red button here – http://217.199.187.200/brainrace.co.uk/home-2/
Also there is a small white bar to the left of the first blue text box when viewing on mobile. Thanks.
Hey MarcGarner,
1. Are you referring to the one under the text “The UK’s First Ever Pairs Challenge ”? If so, It currently doesn’t appear faded from my end.
2. 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) {
.wpb_row .column-image-bg-wrap {
transform: translateZ(0);
}
}
Cheers
Hi—can you tell me how to use the leaflet map? I am trying to get the map marker to show up in a certain position. How is this done?
Hey JayCarver,
When editing the interactive map element, you can enter your latitude and longitude coordinates in the “Map Marker Locations” textarea at the bottom. The Map center lat/lng above that will determine where the map center point is: https://ibb.co/fdTNT6S There’s also many free sites out there to convert an address to lat/lng such as https://www.latlong.net/convert-address-to-lat-long.html You can add an example of the leaflet map by searching “leaflet” within the Salient Templates directly in the page builder as well.
Cheers
It is possible to add a “Wechat” Icon option on the header? There are 1.08 billion monthly active user inside the app. Big enough to take a look.
Hey aky007, I’ve noted the request 
Are you releasing any new demo themes or elements anytime soon?
Hey metkamp, yes – we plan to release the next feature based update within a few weeks.
Cheers
Hi, Can you tell me the best way to see and use the selection of the theme elements before I start building a website? I’m working on creating design mocks and I want to make sure I’m seeing all the element styles and options without going into each demo template. Would this all be shows under the Elements tag on the main demo? Thanks!
Hey Clearview2018,
You can use the Salient studio template library to easily add sections as desired for testing or as a starting place without having to import any demos.
Cheers
Hi guys a little question. I create a Custom Post type, but i wan to show the page options for the header in this one. How can i do it?
Hey elias90,
That would require modding to the salient-core/includes/admin/page-meta.php file in regards. You’ll see in that file that the “post_type” is limited to “page”
Cheers
Ok, i try to add the name of the custom post field in this line like this:
post_type’ => ‘page, corsi’,
But i’m not a php developer. Can you explain me where i need to mod and what i have to do? Please
Ok, it’s difficult. Another question, can i show custom post type categories in the post shortcodes?
I select the category in the post “recent post” shortcode but this doesn’t show the category with custom post…
There are any way for this?
Hey elias90,
That would require modding to the recent post element code as well, it would be a little more involved than simply adding the metaboxes to another CPT
Hello,
Your page fullscreen rows option, why does if I at the 2nd slide/row or at footer, and if I click some white space there, it will auto-jump to the 1st slide/row?
Is there a way to disable that?
Here the demo http://staging.causeeffect.asia/lot10/home-2/Hey effective_advisory, I can see that behavior occurring on your setup but can not replicate it locally. Can 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
errrr but my support already expired.. Will it still works?
In that case, please reach out via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar
Hey there. Is there a way to control the icon’s border transparency? It appears to only display as white and it is very faint… as in 5-10% opacity.
If my icon color is black, the border still remains white. Is this normal?
Example here: https://bit.ly/2xXn0qR
Hey arteest,
You can use the following CSS to control the opacity and color:
.span_12.light .nectar_icon_wrap[data-style="border-basic"] .nectar_icon {
border-color: rgba(255,255,255,0.4);
}
.span_12.light .nectar_icon_wrap[data-style="border-basic"][data-color="black"] .nectar_icon {
border-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.4);
}
Hi! salient harnesses the full available power of adaptive image sizing. how do I enable adaptive images?
Page Header Background Color and Page Header Overlay Color in Project page. what is the difference
Hey Nicko_217,
1. Salient automatically uses srcset for applicable images within in the theme e.g. the portfolio, single image element etc. Can you share your URL so I can take a take a look at which elements on your page are not using it?
2. The Background color can be used if you only desire a solid color BG. If you want to use a background image or video and desire a color to be overlaid on top of that, you can use the Page Header Overlay Color.
Thanks in advance
portfolio: https://yarasheva.design/portfolio/zhk-novoe-tushino-100-kv-m/ Thank you!
Thanks Nicko_217, it looks like you’re mostly using the single image page builder element on that page, and all instances of it are using the srcset attribute which you can see when inspecting the page source code.
thank you) have a nice day!
You’re welcome Nicko_217 
Hello,
You know that the small nav gonna show after I scroll down at certain distance right.
May I know which file is this code set? Because I want to customize the distance of it and & also enable it for full screen display setting.
Hey effective_advisory,
If you’re referring to the header resize effect, the logic for that is located in salient/js/init.js – search for the following line in regards:
function smallNav()
Cheers
Is there a way to add a 5x colored border at the bottom of the header?
Hey csandstedt,
add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
body #header-outer.transparent[data-transparent-header="true"],
body #header-outer[data-transparent-header="true"][data-remove-border="true"],
body #header-outer[data-transparent-header="true"],
body #header-outer {
border-bottom: 5px solid #f00!important;
}
Hi, could you add: #header-outer #social-in-menu .fa-rss:after, .material #slide-out-widget-area.slide-out-from-right .fa-rss:after { content: ”\f09e”; } it’s missing.
Thanks
Hey stefanomaxis, thanks for letting me know.
Cheers
Suggest for a next version the possibility of disabling the transparent menu in the mobile versions.
This is still not possible right?
Hey ofmarconi,
i’ve noted your +1 for the idea
As always, my favorite theme
but for some reason, the down arrow on the nectar slider will only show the scrolling button and not the default, even when it is set to the default in page header settings. I was able to change it to a fontawesome icon using this css:
svg.nectar-scroll-icon { display: none; }
.slider-down-arrow.no-border:before { background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0); }
.slider-down-arrow.no-border:after { content: ”\f078”; font-family: ‘fontawesome’; color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.3); font-size: 30px; width: 45px; height: 45px; border: 2px solid rgba(255,255,255,0); }
.slider-down-arrow.no-border:hover:before { background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0); }
.nectar-scroll-icon-path { stroke-width: 0px; }
but if it were to work just by changing the settings that would be ideal. If you have any ideas why it isn’t working for me, that would be great
thanks!
Hey asandage!
The theme option for “button styling” in the Salient options panel > general settings tab will also override that setting. I’ve noted your feedback in regards
though 
Cheers
Thanks for your quick response! Yes, I saw something that made reference to that setting as well, however, if I do that all the buttons on the site will be rounded, which is not something that I wanted to do.
