Hi there,
On this page I;ve a multiple visible minimal slider of testimonials. But now two of the four testimonials are in the screen for like 25% of the quote. Is it possible to only view two or three and just let it slide? And not having a part of testimonial on the left and right side?
Thanks!
Hey Abbenhues,
Could you share the page URL in regards so I can take a look at the exact settings to assist?
Thanks in advance
Oops, sorry. It’s about https://skilledmethode.nl
No worries Abbenhues,
add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
.testimonial_slider[data-style="multiple_visible_minimal"] blockquote {
width: 100%;
}
@media only screen and (min-width: 1000px) {
body .testimonial_slider[data-style="multiple_visible_minimal"] blockquote {
width: 50%;
}
}
Hey ThemeNectar! One question… Is it possible to have Custom Loading Image (logo of the website) only to show on front page, not on the other pages? Thanks.
Hey ilashme,
You could use the page transitions to add that feature and then add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
body:not(.home) #ajax-loading-screen {
display: none!iimportant;
}
Cheers
Beautiful! Thank you so much!
You’re welcome ilashme 
Would like to get PHP 7.4 working version asap
Also if you have currently BETA version what fixes it…maybe you could send it to my e-mail. Thanks!
Hey PriitCool, I’ll shoot you an email soon with a copy – can you please reach out via the contact form on my author page with the errors you’re seeing related to PHP 7.4 https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Hello, how could I make a dropdown on a page and have each of the clickable items in the dropdown link to a seperate page? Thank you!
Hey worldwidedesign, Unfortunately, WordPress and Salient both do not offer an element like that by default. You could use the page builder element “WP Custom Menu” in order to display a menu of nav items on any given page, but it won’t be in a dropdown format.
Hi there,
After the latest Woocommerce update, we have many seemingly unrelated formatting issues on mobile only. https://upwarddog.com. au
Here are some samples:
These happen on mobile only, not desktop. After investigating them, I changed from material to minimal design in Salient > Woocommerce > Product style and it still happens.
Product category pages, which have subcategories, display with:
Dot points to the left of the image for the subcategory
A larger, bolder font for the subcategory text
Larger images for the subcategory image
Product category images have rounded corners
Instead of showing the first gallery image on hover (as selected in settings), it displays underneath the product thumbnail on the category page
Dot point with Sale! Before a sale item’s thumbnail (instead of Sale! Being overlaid over the thumbnail in the top left corner as previously)
Single product page: Gallery images are a strange size, and not aligned or tiled correctly under the main product image. There is now a magnifying glass icon underneath the breadcrumbs
Breadcrumbs are back (which is good as they actually display correctly now), however I do have custom CSS saying that they should not display in the custom CSS box in Salient settings
The arrows to navigate through the product gallery images are no longer overlaid on top of product gallery images. There are two buttons that have appeared below the product gallery images but tapping them doesn’t do anything.
Cart page:
Background colour for Proceed to checkout button has defaulted to a purple.
Custom CSS:
I do have various lines of custom CSS in Salient settings for custom CSS. It is confusing as to what may still be working from this custom CSS.
Some of the CSS is for the Ascend Skin and I am confused as to whether the Ascend Skin still applies (it is currently selected in Salient settings).
A lot of the settings I had put in the custom CSS are not displaying, for example, the background colour and text colour options of the proceed to checkout button, update cart and apply coupon buttons, the free shipping prompt and cart notice button background colour, text colour and width settings, do not display call to action on shop, checkout and other pages.
Have you seen this before? What’s the best approach- restore, try beta theme, something else? Happy to restore support if you need to peek.
Thanks in advance.
Hey sacredimagining,
I can’t seem to access that URL in order to take a look at the items you’ve mentioned. Could you kindly verify it’s publicly accessible?
Thanks in advance
Sorry it’s https://upwarddog.com.au
No worries sacredimagining,
I am actually seeing the issues you’ve mentioned as mobile only on my desktop as well. First thing I’ve noticed is that there is a syntax error in the page markup at the top. It appears as though your “Global site tag (gtag.js) – Google Analytics” has an unclosed script tag. Can you please temporarily remove that snippet to see if it corrects the issue?
Hi there, I think I have deactivated this. Issues not solved, formatting errors on mobile are still happening. Help appreciated:). Thanks.
Hey sacredimagining, the issue I previously mentioned is still showing in the page source code and being flagged by the browser console: https://ibb.co/kH1K1TJ
Hi, thanks for your reply. What is the best way to remove this snippet? (and do you think it is likely it will fix these issues?). Thanks for your help.
Hey sacredimagining, I do believe that they’re related as an unclosed tag in the head of an HTML document can wreak havoc in the display. It could be added through a plugin, or added into the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab. However, without logging in and taking a look I can’t know for sure the of the origin.
Hi there, I just turned container code placement to ‘off’ in the google tag manager plugin settings. Let me know if that does the trick. Happy to give you login, although possibly not on here. Thanks.
Unfortunately I can still see the same syntax error, is it possible that it’s cached from a plugin you may have active? If you’d like to reach out via the contact form on my author page, I’d be glad to take a look: https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar
Hi there. I sent a message via the contact form on that page. Let me know if you got it and logged in ok, and if that helps decode matters. Thanks for your help. Annalise.
Thanks sacredimagining 
Hi there, all good on the front end now, that plug-in must have been the problem. Thanks for your help.
Glad I could help, sacredimagining
Hello, how I can edit button color and style for lead forms, like on this page https://cyklopedia.cc/cycling-training-plans/. Thank you
Hey Fixedman,
The form styling is controlled by the current theme skin you have active in the Salient options > general settings, but can be further tweaked in the Salient options > form styling tab. You can alter the button coloring by using the following CSS:
body[data-form-submit=see-through] button[type=submit] {
border-color: #367ff0!important;
color: #367ff0!important;
}
body[data-form-submit=see-through] button[type=submit]:hover {
background-color: #367ff0!important;
}
Cheers
Thank you!
You’re welcome Fixedman 
Hi guys,
Few presale questions. Does Salient supports other languages on backend/admin panel? I’m thinking about Polish localization. If not, can I simply translate it and expect, that nothing will blow up after updates? Does demo import feature gives me exact website like one shown on your demos? Can I set different header and footer on different pages? I’ll be grateful for your help.
Hey treial,
1. Salient comes translation ready, but we do not include the admin .pl language files. You can indeed translate if desired and keep that language file in a child theme/in a dir created by a translation plugin . 2. Salient does have a demo importer to provide you access to the demos shown online. Older demos (created over 3 years ago) do not contain a full set of dummy images, and instead, use placeholders in the demo import. This is due to the fact that we used to use stock image websites that do not allow redistribution, but have since switched to unsplash only.
3. You can not set a unique header navigation or footer on a per page basis without some custom modifying or the use of a plugin.
Cheers
Thank you for your reply, ThemeNectar. What about this one: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-corporate-3? Ready for full set using import tool?
Hey treial, Yes, that demo includes all the images as well.
Cheers
Just wanted you guys letting know that salient doesn’t run with PHP 7.4 – only up to 7.3. Just updated to the latest theme and plugins and on 7.4 there is a problem with the nectar slider / redux framework. But it’s in the core plugin and you can’t deactivate that one.
Hey cedzufrei, we have added the fix for redux compatibility with 7.4 in the current beta, but are unaware of Nectar Slider specific compatibility issues. COuld you kindly let me know what the error states on your end?
Thanks in advance
salient/nectar/redux-framework/ReduxCore/inc/class.redux_filesystem.php on line 29
Hey cedzufrei, that error is related to redux – did you also see any specific to the Nectar Slider as previously mentioned?
Cheers
Couldn’t reproduce it, had problems with some other external plugins too but I think I meant only this since nectar is named but yeah therefore redux framework isn’t ready
Thank you for clarifying, cedzufrei
Hello,
I noticed something strange after updating to the latest version of Salient. In version of 10.5.3 of Salient, I had a sidebar with a video background and a widget menu that was displayed over it. Since updating to 11.0.4 the background video now displays over the widget menu. When I change the background to a solid colour the menu shows as it should. Why would the video background show over the main content? Is there a fix for this?
You can see what I mean here:
http://joxi.ru/DrlanxzfVj5Q6m (screenshot) http://clients.bluevisuals.studio/fmlaw/lawyers/michael-mcchesney/ (website)Any help with this is greatly appreciated.
Hey eldread,
You can correct this by adding the following into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
.span_12 > .wpb_column > .vc_column-inner > .wpb_wrapper {
position: relative;
z-index: 10;
}
It’ll be fixed in the next release 
Thanks! This worked.
Glad I could help eldread 
Hello. On my website with salien theme i need help to do some changes in how the sidebar menu is shown. Now all the product-categories and sub-categories is shown. I want the menu only to show the Parent categories, and when you click on the parent categorie in the menu the rest is visible. Hope you understand. Please help.
https://www.aquatools.no/product-category/dyser/Best regards, Mathias
Hey Mathias,
WooCommerce offers a built in option that provides similar functionality to that: https://ibb.co/3Fy5Wpf
Cheers
Hello. I cant find this option in my Customize section on my wordpress site… What can I do?
Best regards
Hey mathiasjohansen, that screenshot was taken from the “product categories” widget options available in the WP admin > Appearance > Widgets
How could I change/override CSS rules when everything is already set using ”!important”? Even child theme styles file has no effect unless I raise the specificity AND add !important. That’s way too much.
Hey picseel, Salient colors defined from the theme options are main rules which end up using !important, few other rules do. Can you please provide an example of what you’re trying to override so I can assist?
Thanks in advance
Thank you for your response. How could I change a button for example if I want to have { border-radius: 12px; text-transform: uppercase; font-size: 12px;} . Some of these rules may need !important, some may not. The problem is that if I’m trying to follow the WPBakery way by adding a modifier class to it, the rules set for that class will be useless. The only thing I can do is to raise the specificity by adding a lot of classes and IDs including my own class and also !important. So what’s the best way to manually customize an element?
Hey picseel, in the case of specifically modifying a button element within the page builder, ensure that you have the “Button styling” set to “default” in the Salient options panel. The other options will apply a border-radius that would require !important to remove: https://ibb.co/2gFg0rQ
The text transform and all other font properties for buttons are handled in the following section: https://ibb.co/PmwF4ff However, by default, the different sizes of buttons will alter the font-size – changing that would require CSS, but it shouldn’t need an !important. Could you kindly share your actual page URL so I can take a look at the setup?
Cheers
Hey ThemeNectar,
We use breadcrumbs on our news page and just received a warning from Google’s Search Console today about the data-vocabulary.org schema being deprecated. Is there a fix for this? Or perhaps something temporary that we can add into the theme to correct this?
Google announced this will be no longer supported starting in April 2020. There’s more info here, https://support.google.com/webmasters/thread/26338421?hl=en
They’re claiming it will hurt organic traffic if not fixed. Any guidance on how we can fix this for Salient in the meantime would be awesome.
Thank you!
Oh goodness, please disregard this post. I realized this is a Yoast thing 
No worries lookwhoo :)
Hey, team salient.
I have some problems in my shop.
1. When any site is defined as shopsite in woocommerce, the laylouts getting worse. Here are two similar sites:
https://www.born-creative.de/shop/This is defined as shopsite in woocommerce. Site is bigger then screensize. Also product slider does not work properly.
And the copy. Not defined as shopsite. Here layout and product slider is fine:
https://www.born-creative.de/testrange/Also your shop start page´s looking different:
http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-ecommerce-creative/shop/2. The “Cart In Nav Style: Slide in full page height” does noch work correctly. On mouse over it slides out, but on 2nd mouse move menu slides out, so you cant hit anything.
Any hints? What I´am doing wrong?
Thx 4 your help and regards, Born Design
Hey born-design,
1. It appears as you have “fullwidth” selected for the shop page layout in the Salient options panel > Woocommerce tab,Please try changing that to the “no sidebar” option instead
2. The text in the cart is altering the width of the slide out cart, which is preventing interaction. You can fix that by adding in the following CSS:
p.jde_hint { width: 300px;}
Cheers
Hey, Salient.
Thx 4 promt answering. Cart got now fixed widh and working.
Content on shop start page is in full width.
But still Breadcrump on shop start page and woocommerce automatically adds products under content from salinet page builder.
Any more hints?
Thx again and by the way: Salient´s still the best 
Hey born-design, Those are core aspects that WooCommerce automatically adds to the shop – is there a reason you want to set the custom designed page as the shop archive when you are not looking for any of the aspects associated with it? You could hide those items with CSS though:
.nectar-shop-header {
display: none;
}
.woocommerce-products-header .page-description > p {
padding-bottom: 0;
}
body.woocommerce.archive .container-wrap {
padding-top: 0;
}
THX again. Sorry, but I misunderstood the principle of the home page of woocommerce. The templat of the Shop start page is a fixed one and only in a limited way editeable. That´s different to shopware, where I came from. Regards. You helped much.
Hey born-design, Glad I could help 
Hello TN,
On the shopping page with a side column, I can chose to display categories, a tag cloud, and so on through the widget function in my WP backend.
On mobile, these elements are provided with a ’+’ and ’-’ sign, so you can fold the content in such a widget out. See: https://gyazo.com/a42de9b94649177cc1dcc66d3042fa95.
I would like this function to also appear on desktop. How can I do that?
Hey hookieoalo, The click event for toggling the visibility state is handled via javascript and only active for screen sizesLess than 1000px and therefore would need modifying in addition to custom CSS
Hi TN,
I totally understand. Could you give me any direction as to what should be added to make this functionality appear on desktop devices as well? I have no clue which files to edit or what CSS to add (neither does my developer). Thanks!
Hey hookieoalo, the file that would need to be modded for the javascript event is salient/js/init.js. You can run a search in the file for the comment “Mobile widget filters” to end up at the right location. After the event is changed, CSS would be needed to alter what is displayed
Thank you very much!
You’re welcome hookieoalo 
I know I don’t have support anymore, but didn’t use the theme since 1Y.
I have a problem, at https://greydev.be/shop/ I have my shop, but it shows the header title. Can I disable this? On all the other pages it’s disabled, but not there.
Hey FerhatRocks,I’m currently not seeing the page title showing on that URL. Have you already sorted this?
Yes with css. But is it possible other way?
Hey FerhatRocks, you can also add the following into your child theme funcitons.php file:
function salient_woo_shop_title() {
return false;
}
Hello, I can’t seem to get comments / discussions to show up on a Page? Like a blog post, I want people to post comments under a page
Hey gspade, for that you would need to copy the page.php file into your child theme and add
comments_template();
Right after
the_content();
Hi, I’m thinking about purchasing this theme but I have one condition. Is it possible to add a button next to the hamburger menu? I want a phone button that also shows next to the hamburger menu on phone so that clients can call straight away.
Hey Jrnkng,
Yes, you can activate the off canvas menu and still add menu items to the regular menu area
Cheers
How do you enable wpbakery page builder for the Sidebar in the portfolio? Looks like it is only available for the “extra content”. Thank you
Hey lindsayclineco, The page builder can only be active on one field, and the main field for the portfolio post type is the extra content editor. You would need to activate the option “Full Width Portfolio Item Layout” in the Project Configuration metabox and then create a sidebar structure by using the page builder.
Cheers
Hi again! I´m using Team member with Bio modal setup. I find that I can use html tags inside Team member bio text area (br, strong, i) but when using a link tag (a tag) after saving clears the textarea. Is that a bug, is that on purpose? Will be amazing to use a tags please! If you can give me a solution will be awesome!
Thanks in advance,
Hernan B
Hey Hernan,
WordPress can’t save quotation marks for attributes within shortcodes, which is how the data in that bio popup is saved. Unfortunately there’s no easy workaround for that as of now, though I’ve noted your +1 for the idea on the wishlist
Cheers
Does this support elementor now, guys?
Hey danzara,
Elementor can work with Salient, but we have not added any additional functionality for it and do not recommend using it over the included page builder as you’ll miss out on the Salient specific element set
