Can you add support for woocommerce 4.x ?

Hey skysnet, there are currently no known issues with that release – could you kindly let me know what issue you’re running into?

Thanks in advance

HI! Q: Where Can I edit the front page’s icon and the information part? https://reurl.cc/MvZGep I can’t find them in the backend editor Thanks!

Hey no333,

1. The social icons in the navigation are chosen in the Salient options panel > Header navigation > layout related tab and the URLs for them are add in the Salient options panel > Social Media

2. The off canvas navigation has a widget area in the Appearance > Widgets section of your admin panel

Cheers

The tops of the dates on my blog page are being cut off. Any idea what might be causing this? https://brndmgmt.com/press/

Hey tmudd89,

add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:


.post .post-meta .month, .post .post-meta .year {
    line-height: 13px;
}

Cheers

Good morning, I’m working with the theme on a subdomain: https://nationwiderenewables.vulcanstudio.co.uk/

How come the logo isn’t showing? As you can see it shows on the sticky menu but not as the page loads.

Hey RhodesignUK,

Can you check that a logo is specified in the Salient options panel > header navigation > transparent header effect for the field titled “Header Starting Logo Upload”?

Cheers

Hi Salient :-)

Question: Is it possible to include the social icons in the secondary header? Now the text ‘Bel ons vrijblijvend op 035 533 0370’ is centered. Can this also be placed to the left align above the logo?

https://webdesign-ruimdenkers.nl/makker/

Hey PascalvanM :)

In the Salient options panel > header navigation > logo related tab, there’s an option for “Enable Social Icons” which should place them on the left side within the secondary navigation

Cheers

Hey guys, when u release the next major update? :-)

Hey rockzi, we’re on the final stages of public beta testing – if you’d like to get access, please reach out via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Hey, is there a way to remove or turn off the menu and nav from one particular page. IE we are using the nav “Left Header” which works great but I would love to have a landing page with no nav that just has 2 choices… would you like to go to point A or point B? Is there a good way to do this?

Hey atnoblr,

add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:


.home #header-outer[data-format="left-header"] {
 display: none;
}

body[data-header-format="left-header"].home #ajax-content-wrap {
    margin-left: 0;
}

Cheers

Is there a way to do this for one particular page? I tried adding this to the css tab and nothing happens. Is there something I need to add to the particular page I want the nav to NOT appear on? Thanks!

Hey atnoblr, I added the home page class name selector in the above snippet, so it would only affect the page assigned as the home. If you need it on an arbitrary page, you can change it to the following and instead add it within the CSS box in the page builder, directly inside of a page you’re editing. (The css box can be opened by clicking the top right gear icon within the page builder)

#header-outer[data-format="left-header"] {
 display: none;
}

body[data-header-format="left-header"] #ajax-content-wrap {
    margin-left: 0;
}

Hello,

I am trying to add a table, using Tablepress plugin. However, certain parts of CSS are overwritten when the table is placed on the page.

I added the following custom CSS:

.tablepress-id-1 .column-4 {
    text-align: right;
}

However when placed on the page the header for column 4, defaults to the left.

www.stanfordrichins.com/project-summary/

The table functions properly until I place on the page (default template). Any ideas for what might be the cause of my problems? Thanks

Hey dbstanford,

I’m currently seeing that the fourth column is using text-align: right: https://ibb.co/YBcSJgC

Are you still facing this issue from your end?

It is the header in the forth column that is aligned-left. The body of the table is properly aligned. The header is properly aligned-right until I place it on the page, then it reverts to aligned left.I am not sure what variable might be pushing it left.

However.. I just added !important.. a little trick I learned from you and it worked. .tablepress-id-1 .column-4 { text-align: right !important; width: 50px; padding: 10px 20px !important; }

Hey dbstanford, I’m glad to hear that you were able to get it sorted :)

Hi guys, how may I change the format of the woocommerce product thumbnails? I have books to sell. The square-cut doesn’t fit for me. I need portrait. THANK YOU FOR THIS WONDERFUL THEME. Bought it again ;)

Hey nelala, I’m really glad to hear you’re enjoying Salient :)

You can alter the product image sizing in the WordPress customizer > WooCommerce tab: https://woocommerce.files.wordpress.com/2017/12/imagefeature.png?w=712

Hello Guys! Have troubles with Salient visual editor not loading up (http://i.imgur.com/3iP6qcL.png) Just freezes. When i deactivate Yoast Seo plugin it starts to load just fine. Do you head about some troubles with YOAST SEO plugin? I use last versions of Salinet Wordpress and YOAST .

Also Animations on one of the custom build pages do not work fine. For instance animated list box animate only when i scroll page all the way to the bottom. I have to turn off all animations because of it.

Hello, is there a way to swap the order of the H2 & P within the Nectar Slider without editing the plugin? Many thanks!

Hi TN team,

Any chance of new page loading animations / transitions & header visual / layout options in the upcoming major update?

Thanks!

Hey ND81!

There are some new header styling options related to the off canvas menu – if you’d like to get early access, Please reach out via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar :)

Is there something in WPbakery I can use to create a sortable grid of team members? Thanks!

Hey lindsayclineco :)

Unfortunately there’s no option to sort team members other than to place them into a tabbed section – the actual core sortable functionality is only available for post types at this time.

Cheers

Hi,

If i want to cut down the server requests, do you recommend uploading the Retina Logo in the regular logo section and leaving the Retina Logo empty?

Will this cause issues with browsers?

That way I can upload 1 logo, large file that will look good on mobile and desktop.

But not sure if there will be issues with devices and browsers.

Hey toolbox101,

That’s correct – when using the srcset feature, the browser will determine which size to load based on the resolution and only serve that single file. WordPress at its core implements srcset for images as well https://make.wordpress.org/core/2015/11/10/responsive-images-in-wordpress-4-4/

Cheers

Thank you for clarifying.

Will the new update fix all these HTML errors? https://validator.w3.org/nu/?doc=http%3A%2F%2Fthemenectar.com%2Fdemo%2Fsalient-corporate-3%2F

Thank you, Emin

Hey Emin,

Most of the errors listed on that are related to using lazy loading images, which is an optional feature that can be disabled. The process of lazy loading requires imgs to not have a src in order to prevent the loading request until the img is scrolled to.

Hi Guys,

Is it possible to insert a background video into the off canvas menu?

Okay, I’ll try!

thanks for the fast reply

You’re welcome Aleis_ :)

​Hi, I’m trying to prepare update for a client site, from v.8.5.3 to 11.0.4. Doing this in wampserver before getting in prod. I have a lot of problem… the biggest one is that I’m using Portfolio (I have install all plugins), Fullwidth portoflio for categories.

ohhh great, thank you, you saved my week ! also I need to override salient-portfolio.php, but I have a Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function project_single_controls() in C:\wamp64\www\tortel\wp-content\themes\salient-child\single-portfolio.php on line 284. I don’t see why if I put this file in my child theme, it doesn’t see your fonction anymore…I just need to move my breadcrumb before div class=”container main-content”... Is there a better way to did this ? thanks

my answer disappears…thanks, it works fine now. Also, I need to override the single-portfolio.php file, but I have error Call to undefined function project_single_controls() in C:\wamp64\www\tortel\wp-content\themes\salient-child\single-portfolio.php on line 284. How to correct this ? Thanks

Glad I could help riondu :)

That function is now titled “nectar_project_single_controls” and can be copied from wp-content/plugins/salient-portfolio/includes/frontend/helpers

Cheers

Question: can you make page templates that are fixed? For example for custom posts, so these posts will always have the same format and even if you make changes in the future they’ll change all posts in the same way?

Hey Codeigniter, There’s an optional plugin from WPBakery that adds this functionality:

https://codecanyon.net/item/templatera-template-manager-for-visual-composer/5195991

Awesome thanks!

You’re welcome Codeigniter :)

Hello, I would like to know if it is possible to get the contents of a custom post I created through the “Post Grid” block. thanks!

Hey thaisvilanova,

That would require modifying the salient-core/includes/vc_templates/nectar_post_grid.php file in regards

Cheers

Hi there, On this website: https://oes.kleidi.nl/ i’ve two menu items without a submenu (Home and OES AntiFouling). Those menu items ar not lined out with the other menu items, as you can see they are a couple of pixels below the other menu items. How to solve this? Thanks in advance.

Hey Abbenhues, That’s occurring due to your header nav item font size being set smaller than the down arrow indicators. You can correct it by adding the following CSS:

body.material .sf-menu > li > a > .sf-sub-indicator i {
    font-size: 16px;
    line-height: 10px;
}

Hey Salient. How can have two different background colors in the same full width background row? I have nested rows now but since the content is restricted to contain, i don’t see a way to set that color to extend to the edge of the browser. Thanks again!!!

Sure https://imgur.com/a/OX3D4Ox

Note that I am able to do this with some negative margin but it sort of throws the layout off a bit. For some reason the whole row gets taller.

here is the layout… https://imgur.com/daPX5ZW

Thanks brianlichty,

You’ll have to adjust this CSS to limit it to your specific row, but the gist of it could be achieved like so:

body .wpb_column .column-bg-overlay-wrap {
    width: 50vw;
}

Cheers
