Hey Nicko_217,
You’ll need to provide a minimum height for your autoplaying video element in the right column in order for the BG video to calculate its size correctly in instances where it loads first. add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
@media only screen and (min-width: 1000px) {
.landing-video {
min-height: 25vh;
}
}
@media only screen and (min-width: 1600px) {
.landing-video {
min-height: 390px;
}
}
congratulations for your 100.000 sales! =)
Thank you very much Nicko_217! 
congratulations for your 100.000 copies sales ! you deserve your success guys !
Thanks a lot fantome_in! It’s an awesome milestone for sure 
Hi ThemeNectar.
I have a three column mega-menu. I would like to add a background image to the 3rd column only and have this full width of the column. Example: https://finisterre.com/
Cheers,
Hey Ewanbenoit, add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab as an example:
#header-outer #top nav > ul >.megamenu > ul > li:nth-child(3) {
background-image: url('http://themenectar.com/demo/salient/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/night_to_remember3.jpg');
}
You can alter the “nth-child(3)” to target any specific column.
Cheers
Thanks for that. I did manage to get this far but this results in the background-image only filling the column area and not covering full width. There is still the padding around the column. Notice, the link I sent (https://finisterre.com/) the background-image goes edge to edge of the megamenu, there is no padding or margin. Thanks again!
Hey Ewanbenoit,
You would need to alter the CSS of the existing megamenu to make that work. For example:
body #top nav >ul >.megamenu >.sub-menu {
padding: 0;
}
body #header-outer #top nav >ul >.megamenu >ul >li{
padding: 30px;
}
Hi ThemeNectar, really appreciate the help!
Currently, the background img is “full screen” but still constrained to the header container leaving white space to the right of the column. Is there a way to make the image full width of the page?
Here is the screenshot: https://imgur.com/a/KAKslBs
Using the CSS classes in appearance > menus I cannot target a specific menu item to change the text colour of the third column only, any ideas why this is?
Lastly, is there a way to add a button and text to this third column? As shown in the screenshot.
Cheers,
Hey Ewanbenoit,
1. Accomplishing that would require using the “Full Width Header” option in the Salient options panel > header navigation > layout related tab. Of course, that would also change your header to become full width as well.
2. You can use the following snippet to alter the colors of that specific column:
#header-outer #top nav > ul >.megamenu > ul > li:nth-child(3) a {
color: #fff!important;
}
Been using Salient for a good while now. Looking at a site refresh and using another round of Salient depends on whether there’s a juicy new update coming with various new layouts and modules. Any major updates coming soon? Thanks!
Hey rproeis, new features are in the works now – we’ll likely be releasing the next major version at the end of the month 
Can you provide a list of customizations or code needed to increase the website load speed and other metrics? I’ve tried scanning my website with gtmetrix.com but it gets a poor score. The live demos all have an “A” score. What was done to make this happen?
Hey luxerman, no customizations or custom coding was used on the live demos – only the performance plugin (W3 total cache) as listed in the documentation here: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/performance-optimization-guide/#caching
Hi, is there a way to show a video preview for a portfolio item (see this page as an example – https://www.joeperriphoto.com). If not, can you build it in to a future release
??
Hey AkeatsKe! That URL is using animated .gif images for the “video previews”
You can use animated gif files as well, however you would need to use the option titled “Bypass Image Cropping” in the portfolio settings.
Cheers
Hi, everyone. I’ looking for how to add clients logos and able to changing colors on hover. Anyone knows how to do that? Thanks
Hey eladarale,
When editing the client element in your page builder, there’s an option to choose that hover style: https://ibb.co/XWJSXTp

Hi, is it possible to include the description of the portfolio item in a Magnific Lightbox Pop-up?
Kindly check here: https://weboasis.org/netfacil/#PORTFOLIO I was hoping to have the title and description in the lightbox popup.
Let me know please.
Thank you!
Hey janinexd!
The text specified in the “Description” field for your featured image in the “Attachment Details” sidebar should show at the bottom. If you already have that set, 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
Is there any way I can put “Buy Now” button besides “ADD to Cart”?
Hey saurav76, Are you trying to alter the add to cart text to become or “buy now” or add an entirely new button with different functionality and also keep the existing add to cart button?
i want to add an entirely new button with different functionality and also keep the existing add to cart button
Hey saurav76,
Salient has a hook called “nectar_woocommerce_before_add_to_cart” which you can use via your child theme in regards. Here’s a basic example:
add_action('nectar_woocommerce_before_add_to_cart','salient_child_custom_btn');
function salient_child_custom_btn() {
echo '<a href="#">Test Button</a>';
}
So first I have to install child theme right?
I want to add this button inside product page
for example – “https://evaccs.com/product/haha-gas-unisex-t-shirt/” in this page I want to add “Buy Now” Button besides “Add to cart” Button.
Hey saurav76, yes that would need to be added in the child theme functions.php file.
I tried that it doesn’t add button inside the product page, it adds that small button when we put cursor at product
for example – “https://evaccs.com/product/haha-gas-unisex-t-shirt/” in this page I want to add “Buy Now” Button besides “Add to cart” Button.
Hey saurav76, you would need to then instead hook to “woocommerce_after_add_to_cart_button” instead of the previously provided “nectar_woocommerce_before_add_to_cart”.
Cheers
Dear team,
I have an issue with my website uniscopio.com
A month ago, the search console started showing an issue with the feed pages.
I would need to add no index tag for these pages to sort this out.
Please, can you let me know which folder and file contain this? so i can add the no index tag.
Please, let me know if you need access to the folders o anything. Happy to provide. Thanks in advance.
best.
Hey javizlatan, Salient does not alter the default WordPress feed template, however, when using an SEO plugin such as Yoast, you can control which archive templates get indexed.
Cheers
hi themenectar, yoast does not allow me to control feed pages, those are coming from salient as far as i understand. Please, hope you can help me sorting this out. contact me by email if easier.
Hey, are you referring to the feed URLs which are automatically generated by WordPress ( such as http://uniscopio.com/feed ) If not, please provide the feed URL on your site so I can take a look.
Thanks in advance
Hey, please check this https://uniscopio.com/blog/b2-ingles/feed/, in case its from wp, can you guide to non index these? thanks a million
Hey javizlatan, that is the feed for a single blog post and it is indeed automatically created by WordPress – you can test this by swapping to the default WP theme.
Hey MarcGarner,
Try to use the following in regards:
@media only screen and (max-width: 1000px) {
html body .nectar-shape-divider-wrap[data-position="top"] {
top: 0px;
}
}
Cheers
Unrelated question, but I’d really like to know the music used in the Salient marketing video. Love it! Thank you.

The update of 23 December – when I try to install it says missing CSS Sheet?
Hey lam09 ,
Have you verified that you’ve extracted and uploaded the salient.zip inside of the main ThemeForest download .zip? https://help.market.envato.com/hc/en-us/articles/202821510-Theme-is-missing-the-style-css-stylesheet-error

Hi,
Sub menu arrow position is not proper. its appears at bottom of the text. Mega menu is working fine.
Hey jatin23,
Please share your actual URL so I can take a closer look at your setup to assist.
Thanks in advance
I am working on local system. Can I share the screen shot on email ?
Hey jatin23, since there is currently no known issue that would cause that positioning to occur, besides the menu running out of room, which does not appear to be the case, I would need to see the URL live to inspect the root cause. Can you move the site to a staging URL?
hi! is there a way to do the nectar animated circle in the map clickable? so it goes to a url? thanks
Hey dimage, unfortunately, there’s no built-in functionality for that as of now. I’ve noted the idea on the wishlist though
Hi there, I have SSL on my website but I go under Salient general setting the SSL disappears. How can I fix this so SSL shows? Thanks for your help.

I cannot set the row on this page containing the contact form to full width background without it messing up all the column sizes.
http://79.170.40.173/ukchallange.co.uk/contact/Any help much appreciated.
Hey MarcGarner,
Can you please set the row to the full width background type or kindly provide a test page showing the issue so I can take a look?
sure – here is with the row set to full width background -http://79.170.40.173/ukchallange.co.uk/contact-2/
and here is with it set to container – http://79.170.40.173/ukchallange.co.uk/contact/
there are no other differences in the settings. But as you can see it messes up the columns.
Thanks MarcGarner,
You’ll need to change your
@media only screen and (min-width: 1000px) {
#Contact.wpb_row.vc_row-fluid.vc_row.standard_section {
margin: -29% !important;
}
}
to be:
@media only screen and (min-width: 1000px) {
#Contact.wpb_row.vc_row-fluid.vc_row.standard_section {
margin: -29% !important;
width: auto;
}
}
That works great, thanks for your help. Fantastic support as always and an amazing theme.
Glad to hear MarcGarner
Hi, for the option:
“Post Navigation Links On Single Post Page Using this will add navigation link(s) at the bottom of every post page”
When you select ‘Yes’ – is there also a way to make it so only posts which are the same category are show as ‘next and previous’ as opposed to all of the posts?
Hey jackcweston,
That would require modifying the “nectar_next_post_display” function in a child theme. You can locate it in the salient/nectar/helpers/blog.php file
Thanks, what do I modify it to?
If I purchase extended support, will you be able to run through this in more detail?
Hey jackcweston, unfortunately custom PHP or JS coding is out of the scope of support
hi themenectar,
great theme.
can you just tell me how to load google fonts only locally? actually the stylesheet “redux-google-fonts-salient_redux-css” is linking to google server. “load from theme” doesn’t work for typo like cabin, roboto …
br newbie2004
Hey newbie2004, Fonts will only load from Google when they are set in the Salient options panel > typography tab. If you do not wish for them to, make sure you unassign any families which are set. Loading fonts locally after doing that would require using a plugin such as https://wordpress.org/plugins/use-any-font/ or using a child theme to manually enqueue them from a stylesheet Cheers
