Hi there, I wanted to inform you about an error above the 10.5.3 version of Salient. The border animation (in my case the “Double Offset”) doesn’t work anymore. At the moment I keep the old salient version running. I hope you guys are fixing this issue quick. I think all Border Animations are having this issue.
Best regards, Hendrik
Hey Hendrik,
Since there is currently no known issue with using column border animations, could you kindly provide a test URL showing the issue so I can take a closer look? Could you also let me know if you’re seeing an issue with the demo in the “Column Borders” section: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-promo/columns/
Thanks in advance
Hi, I am trying to move a row’s full width background image up using negative margin, but when I add negative margin nothing happens. How would I move that up?
Hey freshlyroastedweb , can you please share the URL you’re using the CSS on so I can take a closer look to assist?
Thanks in advance
Here you go. https://aclz.org/testone/
You can see about halfway down there is a yellow box on the left with about 50px of white space below the box and row below it. I would like to bring below row up to sit behind the image on the right and the yellow text box so it looks like the bar on the left continues down.
Thanks freshlyroastedweb,
Give that row an ID so that is can be targeted with CSS, for example, “negative-top-margin” and then add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
#negative-top-margin {
margin-top: -10%;
}
I am using ultimate member plugin and want to replace user account icon in header navigation on right hand side with profile picture that a user uploads through ultimate member plugin.
Hey druffzy,
You can alter the user account icon with custom CSS, but having it replace dynamically through user settings would require custom development.
Hi guys,
I want to experiment with the portfolio zoom slider, could you let me know which file is handling the function of portfolio “fullscreen zoom slider”?
Thanks beforehand,
Hey aditomo!
The output for that is generated in wp-content/plugins/salient-portfolio/includes/frontend/shortcode.php
Look for the “nectar_recent_projects” function in regards.
Cheers

It it possible to add a Youtube vide as a product image gallery? So people can open the video if they click on the extra images?
Hey dzineee,
Unfortunately, there’s no option for that built into the image gallery
Hello Team,
I was looking into Query monitor for one of my client website and get to know salient-core is triggering some slow query.
SELECT DISTINCT YEAR( post_date ) AS year, MONTH( post_date ) AS month FROM wp_posts WHERE post_type = 'attachment' ORDER BY post_date DESChttps://i.imgur.com/R171KRk.jpg
It’s coming on posts, media, portfolio, products, post category, product category, portfolio category.
Hey princebhalani143, that’s the core WP function wp_enqueue_media Could you kindly open a ticket on our support forum in regards with temporary admin credentials so we can take a closer look at your setup to see why it would be classified as slow? https://themenectar.ticksy.com
Thanks in advance
Hi There, We have a client with an old Salient v.4.8.1 installed and Visual Composer has stopped working correctly… I see that you’ve switched to WP Bakery a while ago, so we are wondering what’s going to happen to the content and theme styling if we update…
1. Will there be any complications if we update to the latest 11.0.4?
2. Will the theme’s layout and styling stay intact (a child theme is used)?
Thanks
Hey neko_in_space
That’s quite an old release – just be aware that Salient has split up various functionality into plugins now and those will need to be installed/activated upon updating: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/important-salient-update-for-new-envato-requirements/
If there are template file modifications contained in that child theme, they will need to updated to match the current structure of Salient.
Cheers
Hello,
I am writing you because I have problems with the portfolio, it does not filter the projects https://bit.ly/2szLqYs . What should do ??
This week I will not have access to the internet but as soon as I return I read your instructions.
Thank you.
Hey dinahvanesa, You need to edit the category “slugs” to contain regular characters with javascript can interpret – The visible category names can remain the same though. Please see the following screenshot for clarification: https://ibb.co/f1k0nYg

Hello team, I would like to know if you can provide the Spanish PO/MO files. I read in some ticket you already had French one. Thanks in advance
Hey mariagallego, Unfortunately, we do not have a copy of a user donated Spanish translation to provide
Hello Salient team ! I found a bug on the version with center logo and with the stickiness header actived. If you scroll on your page the menu move close to the logo, if you reload when you are in the middle of your page, the menu is not correctly positioned. Thank you
https://streamable.com/a83moHey Arkanite!
I can’t seem to replicate that locally – could you kindly share your actual site URL so I can take a closer look into the setup?
Thanks in advance
Hey ! Do you have an address email, there is htpasswd and i cant put here. thx
Hey Arkanite, you can reach out via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar
Hey Arkanite, I’m currently seeing a maintenance page when trying to access that URL
Sorry 
it’s ok now
No worries Arkanite,
It could be occurring due to the resize effect getting triggered before the logo image finishes loading – could you test this snippet out to see if it corrects it?
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) {
.menu-item-with-margin {
margin-right: 311px!important;
transition: 0.3s ease;
}
.small-nav .menu-item-with-margin {
margin-right: 131px!important;
}
}
it’s works ! Thank you very much 
Glad I could help Arkanite
I can’t for the life of me change the product title font size. I tried here Salient options panel > typography > navigation & page header > Page Heading Font but that didn’t do anything. I don’t have custom CSS for this either. Any recommendations?
Okay for some reason the Product Title is taking on the Typography > General HTML Elements > Heading 2 styling. Is there a way to change it to it’s own styling or back to Page Heading Font?
Hey ehong33234,
add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
.woocommerce ul.products li.product .woocommerce-loop-product__title,
.woocommerce ul.products li.product h2 {
font-family: 'Open Sans'!important;
font-size: 20px!important;
line-height: 1em;
}
Cheers
Strange, it didn’t do anything. Tried multiple browsers too. Shouldn’t this set my font size to 20px or do I need to go back in to Typography settings and adjust there?
Hey ehong33234,
That snippet should indeed alter the font size. Could you kindly share your URL so I can take a look at why it didn’t take?
Cheers
Yes, thank you. https://bit.ly/2NEs4J8
Thanks ehong33234,
The snippet provided was to target the product title in the main shop/product archives like here: https://drinklava.com/shop/
To change the single product title, you can use the following:
body.single-product div.product h1.product_title {
font-size: 30px;
line-height: 35px;
}
Cheers
Its not customisation we want or anything as we know the support has ended, but its on the existing theme. but whenever we edit any page and say the error comes, see screenshot.How to resolve this – https://ibb.co/b7PG9F4
Hey sudhiranjandas, This issue is related to the current version of WP and was corrected in Salient 11.0.2: http://themenectar.com/changelogs/salient.html#11-0-2
You can update your theme/Salient plugins using any of the following methods: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/updating-salient/#methods
Cheers
Hello how I can change font color on contact form? http://zvy.7ae.myftpupload.com/ Thank you.
Hey marketing62,
add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
#ajax-content-wrap .span_12.light input[type=text], #ajax-content-wrap .span_12.light textarea, #ajax-content-wrap .span_12.light input[type=email] {
color: #000!important;
}
Cheers
Thank you.

Is there a way to remove the opacity from the menu so it’s always solid?
Hey thomasmkl,
If you’re referring to the transparent header, you can alter that with the following:
#header-outer.transparent #top nav > ul > li > a,
#header-outer.transparent #top nav > .sf-menu > li > a {
opacity: 1!important;
}
No I mean in the menu text
Hey thomasmkl, that snippet was to alter the header menu link text when the transparent effect is active – There is no opacity set on the menu text in a default setup. If you’re trying to alter the header text coloring, you can do so in the Salient options panel > header navigation > logo & general styling tab at the bottom via the “Header Font” field. Just make sure you have the Header color scheme set to “custom” so that it can take effect.
Cheers
Hello, I would like to use a nectar slider and only have the text that changes with a still image, is it possible? Thank you so much !
Hey noemimartinelli38
That would require custom CSS – you can add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab as an example:
.swiper-slide {
background-color: transparent!important;
}
.swiper-slide .slide-bg-wrap {
display: none;
}
swiper-container {
background-size: cover;
background-image: url(http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-frostwave/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/take-flight1-600x400.jpg);
}

Hi ThemeNectar,
How does the hiding of columns in the Responsive Settings for VC work? If i have hidden a column for mobile or desktop does that work similar to using a CSS class (media query) or is it a server related function?
Thanks
Hey Greyspark,
It uses CSS to hide them, the columns still exist in the DOM.
Hi ThemeNactar thanks for your reply.
I’m guessing that if its hiding rows / columns with CSS then everything on the page is being loaded then certain bits are hidden depending on the settings applied.
The reason i’m asking is that we have a single page that has lots of rows specifically for desktop then a short set of rows for mobile. Our mobile loading times are very slow, indicating that the whole page is being rendered.
What is the best workaround for this? Would be really good to know what you think is best for our case.
Thanks
Hey Greyspark,
You could use a plugin to serve an entirely different page setup for mobile devices: https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpstudio-mobile-redirect/
Cheers
Hi. i’ve a question for portfolio items…. On desktop, with the 3D Parallax on hover, when i hover over the item, the meta appears. On mobile, the meta is always visible. How can I hide the meta on mobile? thanx!
Hey DieMan_,
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) {
.portfolio-items[data-ps="6"] .work-meta,
.portfolio-items[data-ps="6"] .bg-overlay { display: none!important; }
}
Cheers
Hi! Tnx! Now the meta data is hidden, but there is yet the background overlay over the images… is possible to remove also it?
Hey DieMan_,
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 .portfolio-items[data-ps="6"] .work-item .parallaxImg-layers > div .bg-img:after {
opacity: 0!important;
}
}
Perfect! Tnx!
You’re welcome DieMan_
Hello, I moved my site into the Blog Magazine, today I was translating the .po file and could not find the “Read Article” phrase that appears in the homepage slider.
I searched inside with WPBakery, with no success.
Maybe it is missing?
Thanks
Hey myuption, that string is located in the salient-core text domain, in the salient-core plugin dir. You can find the .pot file in wp-content/plugins/salient-core/langauges
Cheers
Oh, cool, I will use WPML, thank you 
You’re welcome myuption
Is there a way to add a custom item besides search icon in top header navigation? like a heart icon that redirects to a wishlist page?
I got that working on kosaa.ca, but the same heart icon doesnt show on mobile
Hey druffzy,
For the mobile menu icon, you’d need to copy/modify the salient/includes/partials/header/header-menu.php file in your child theme
Cheers
Hi, So i got it all working, except for non transparent header png change on phone. See here kosaa.ca for the heart icon. How can i change it show different png which is of black color when users starts scrolling under non transparent header?
Hey druffzy,
You can use the following selector in a media query to target the non-transparent state and swap BG images:
@media only screen and (max-width: 1000px) {
#header-outer:not(.transparent) i.fa.fa-github-alt {
}
}
Cheers
<a class="mobile-user-account" href="https://www.kosaa.ca/wishlist"><span id="header-outer " class="i.fa.fa-github-alt" style="background-image:url(https://www.kosaa.ca/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/hiclipart.com_.png); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: center; width: 20px!important; height: 25px; background-size: 25px;" aria-hidden="true" /></a>
<a class="mobile-user-account" href="https://www.kosaa.ca/wishlist"><span id="header-outer:not(.transparent)" class="i.fa.fa-github-alt" style="z-index:-100; background-image:url(https://www.kosaa.ca/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/hiclipart.comblack.png); background-repeat: no-repeat; width: 20px!important; height: 25px; background-size: 25px;" aria-hidden="true" /></a> I wrote this code in header-menu.php but both the icons are always displayed besides each other all the time.
and i tried putting this code in custom css removing all that code above from header-menu.php but nothing displays then
@media only screen and (max-width: 1000px) {
#header-outer i.fa.fa-github-alt{
background-image:url(https://www.kosaa.ca/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/hiclipart.com_.png);
background-repeat: no-repeat; width: 20px!important; height: 25px;
background-size: 25px;
}
#header-outer:not(.transparent) i.fa.fa-github-alt {
background-image:url(https://www.kosaa.ca/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/hiclipart.comblack.png);
background-repeat: no-repeat; width: 20px!important; height: 25px;
background-size: 25px;
}
}
Hey druffzy,
The CSS I provided was to assist in targeting the mobile state of the code you had previously added to header-menu.php, the code will need to stay. Please uncomment that markup and then use the CSS in the custom CSS box to alter the images as needed. If that’s not working for you, kindly let me know.
Hi,
So I have this in header-menu.php
<a class="mobile-user-account" href="https://www.kosaa.ca/wishlist"><span id="header-outer " class="i.fa.fa-github-alt" style="background-image:url(https://www.kosaa.ca/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/hiclipart.com_.png); background-repeat: no-repeat; width: 20px!important; height: 25px; background-size: 25px;" aria-hidden="true" /></a>and this is custom css
@media only screen and (max-width: 1000px) {
#header-outer:not(.transparent) .fa-github-alt {
background-image:url(https://www.kosaa.ca/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/hiclipart.comblack.png);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
width: 20px;
height: 25px;
background-size: 25px;
}
}
However the transparent doesnt show up.
Hey druffzy,
You need to change the markup class name to be
class="fa fa-github-alt"
instead of
class="i.fa.fa-github-alt"
and then change the CSS to use !important on the background image like so:
background-image:url(https://www.kosaa.ca/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/hiclipart.comblack.png)!important;
