Is it possible to remove the white gap at the bottom of blog posts, between the last element and the next/prev post nav – http://176.32.230.3/stringer-flavour.com/botanical-extracts/

Thanks.

Hey MarcGarner,


.post .content-inner, .main-content > .row {
    padding-bottom: 0;
}
.single-post .blog_next_prev_buttons {
  margin-top: 0;
}

Cheers

Hi ThemeNectar,

I am currently using the FancyBox-3 option for the lightbox affect for my image galleries as you can see here: https://neileverosborne.com/photojournalism/magazines/the-comeback-with-smithsonian-magazine

Couple of questions;

1. Is it possible to add captions with a hover effect either with an icon or text display so when a user hovers over the icon or text the caption can display. Example can be seen here: http://www.brentstirton.com/photojournalism

I hope the above makes sense.

If my request can’t be completed within Salient can you recommend an alter lightbox. Many thanks.

Best, Alan

Hey Alan, The Image Gallery element does support captions to display in the lightbox through the “Description” field on every image uploaded. However, there’s no option to only show that when hovering over a specific icon

How can I make an image grid on desktop convert to a carousel on mobile?

Hey dannynamnum, that would require custom Javascript development as well as new CSS to allow for a transformation like that to occur.

Hi guys, have seen an issue here with portfolios not displaying correctly with the latest update? You said “This issue will be sorted in the next release”…

I’m using the Portfolio element, 4 columns layout, Project style: Meta below thumb w shadow hover. My problem: On larger desktop it shows the 4 columns correctly, on laptop it shows 3 columns with a gap where the 4th column should have been (so it sits to the left – not centered) and then smaller views it shows one column off center to the left.

Example, on your demo: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-ascend/portfolio-3-columns/ it looks like this when resizing smaller: https://prnt.sc/rn5nvc

Please advise how to fix with css until the next update, thanks

Hey anton123,

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


#ajax-content-wrap .portfolio-items .col.span_3 {
    width: 24.9%;
}

@media only screen and (max-width: 999px) and (min-width: 690px) {
  .portfolio-items:not(.carousel) .col.span_4, 
  .portfolio-items:not(.carousel) .col.span_3 {
      width: 49.9%!important;
  }
}

Thanks guys, the fix is working.

Glad to hear, anton123 :)

Cheers

Hi on my woocommerce login page the Login and Register button are very fade and thin. Where can i change the font, size and opacity?

https://www.bodybalance.one/my-account/

found that they are Header 2 classed, but how do i isolate them so not all my H2 has to be that big.

Hey Ragmannl, If you want a separate style for those, you can add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:


.woocommerce-account .woocommerce > #customer_login .nectar-form-controls .control {
    font-size: 36px;
}

Cheers

Feature Request: Love salient. But most of the websites I build with it are for small to medium sized businesses, plumber, cleaning lady, construction worker, estate sale service, dentist etc. Currently your demos don’t provide an easy convert for these. As you could imagine they take into accord certain layout essentials; phone number in the header, service list or icons off the bat etc. Would love your next update to include a demo or two of these. It would largen the appeal for salient and your ux is so good i’d love to see you perfect the SMB demo. Thanks man

Hey SiteTonight, thanks a lot for the request!

I’ve noted it on the wishlist:)

Hi,

I have disabled the Apple Touch icon that WP creates by adding this code to the functions.php

function removeAppleTouchIconFilter($string) {
  return strpos($string, 'apple-touch-icon') === false;
}
function prevent_apple_touch_icon_metatag($meta_tags){
    return array_filter($meta_tags, 'removeAppleTouchIconFilter');
}
add_filter('site_icon_meta_tags','prevent_apple_touch_icon_metatag');

However, I would also like to disable one of the cropped png favicons too.

/cropped-icon-32×32.png

and

/cropped-icon-192×192.png

I would like to keep one of these, the other is extra, do you know a way of disabling this without a plugin? Or simply using the old school favicon.ico? Which I see is removed from Salient.

Thanks

Oh and by the way

Using this code


remove_action ('wp_head', 'wp_site_icon', 99);

Removes everything, which I do not want to do, I need at least one browser icon.

Can you help with this?

Thanks

Hey toolbox101,

The site icons you’re referring to are not added through Salient directly – if you used the above snippet to remove the core WP functionality, you could then add your own custom icon by attaching a new function to wp_head. You can check the original source here to potentially copy part of it: https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wp_site_icon/

Found that when enabling Shortpixel image optimization via Autoptimize the Nectar sliders intermittently had a black background. Is there an image optimization plugin that works well with Salient?

Hey aqiwebadmin, we’ve used https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-smushit/ on some of the demos. However, If you’d like to share your URL where the black image issue can be seen, I’d be glad to take a look.

Cheers

Position left sidebar below post content in mobile. Is there a way to do this? I have two widgetized sidebars on blog posts. How can I get my post content under the post title? Right now the left sidebar content starts below the post title. Thank you. https://bit.ly/2y3AJ2x

Thank you. Best theme ever!

Hey muntzdesigns!

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


.single .post-content .wpb_row >.span_12 {
  display: flex;
}

@media only screen and (max-width: 1000px) {
.single .post-content .wpb_row >.span_12 {
    flex-flow: row;
    flex-wrap: wrap-reverse;
}

.single .post-content .wpb_row >.span_12 .vc_col-sm-8 {
    padding-bottom: 50px;
}

}

Cheers

worked perfect. thank you a million and be safe.

Thank you muntzdesigns, hope you stay safe as well :)

Hi I cant seem to find the Business 3 template on the new install. I updated the theme and did all the flush cache, Am I missing something? Can you please help? Thanks!

Hey user44059 :)

Please make sure that you’ve updated your version of the Salient demo importer plugin to the latest release (1.1). If you’ve already done so, it’s possible that you have an outdated demo folder lingering in your salient theme directory at salient/nectar/redux-framework/extenstions/wbc_importer

If that directory exists, please delete it so that the Salient demo importer plugin can be loaded.

Cheers

Hey, is it possible to turn off the animation on titles? Can’t seem to turn it off in Salient options. Thanks!

No worries hanlasse :)

The text “Finding a tattoo artist is too damn hard!” is using the page builder element “Split line heading”, which adds an animation by default. Simply copy the text from that element, delete it and use a standard text block instead

Cheers

Ah of course, easy as that :) Awesome, thank you!

You’re welcome hanlasse :)

I´m trying to set a button oh the header of a page to drive to a tab on same page so i´m using the link ”?tab=name-of-the-tab” on the button (also tried ”#?tab=name-of-the-tab”) but it doesn´t leaves me there. It only activate de tab, but the tab is at least 3 sections/templates away so it´s like no effect for visitor this is with salient 11.0.4

Hey FeriaPixel, You’ll need to edit the parent row and provide it a unique ID which can then be used to link to that section as well. For example, with the row ID of “my-cool-row”, the link would be http://domaiin.com/page/?tab=name-of-the-tab#my-cool-row

great! it works (I tried upside down)

Glad I could help FeriaPixel :)

https://reurl.cc/j78LM2 I use the video lightbox but why can’t the video show on the phone? thanks!

Hey no333,

The video lightbox should work on a mobile device as well – can you share your actual URL so I can take a look?

Thanks in advance

http://new.takeac.com.tw/v/ video can preview on the computer but on a mobile just show the play button

Hey no333,

You would need to change the row background from the Youtube option to the self hosted (mp4, webm) option. Youtube autoplaying is not permitted on mobile devices.

Cheers

Hello, How can I make the product images display on my website and shop smaller? The images are way to big. I would like to display my images small like Loopmasters.com

Hey Primecoder,

You can control the column number for shop pages in the Salient options panel > WooCommerce tab via the “Archive Page Columns” option.

Cheers

Hi ThemeNectar i am missing the last 2 demos, from demo import

Hey Martrix86,

Please make sure that you’ve updated your version of the Salient demo importer plugin to the latest release (1.1). If you’ve already done so, it’s possible that you have an outdated demo folder lingering in your salient theme directory at salient/nectar/redux-framework/extenstions/wbc_importer

If that directory exists, please delete it so that the Salient demo importer plugin can be loaded.

Hi ThemeNectar,

It appears every since updating to the latest Salient theme the WPBakery Page Builder is not displaying when I create a new ‘Page’ or when I edit some of my existing pages.

According to the plugins menu I am using Salient WPBakery Page Builder v6.1 and Salient theme v11.0.4

Can you help me out?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Best, Alan

Hey Alan, Have you already tried to disable third party plugins to rule out a conflict?

If none are causing it, please reach out via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Thanks in advance

It appears Yoast SEO was causing a conflict, not sure why has that plugin has always worked in the past. Do you recommend installing Yoast SEO plugin again or is there another option?

Hey Alan, Can you confirm that you’re using the latest version of Yoast (13.3)

Hi ThemeNectar,

https://neileverosborne.com/fineart/augmented-reality-experience

If you visit the link above I have setup an image gallery grid with 2 columns but for some reason after updating Salient to the latest version even though I have it setup as 2 columns it displays as 1 column. Do you know why that would be happening and how to fix it?

Screenshot: https://send.firefox.com/download/44cde158b5cf2876/#ageGz1RAS0zvIHBBAu0lIQ

Your help would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks.

Best, Alan

Hey Alan,

This issue will be sorted in the next release – for now, add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:


.portfolio-items .col.span_6, 
.portfolio-items[data-ps="6"] .col.span_6 {
    width: 49.7%;
}

Can you please also add lazy loading to the old Portfolio grid? Not the new one.

The new grid is not really that good, the old one had better options. :)

Hey toolbox101, the Post Grid is a new element and will be getting many more customization options in the coming update :)

Hi, if you open this page with woocommerc products https://gastromallorca.net/jensen/beds/ opens in 4s, but if you go to this page https://gastromallorca.net/jensen/headboards/ with all so wocommerce products opens in 15-20s, i dont understand why, can you help? thanks

Hey dimage, It looks like something is hanging up your server – however, without running some diagnostics, it’s hard to say.

Have you verified that the issue only occurs when Salient is the active theme?

How could I do a js alert, when it changes section? # THK a lot

Hey ltwallace, Could you elaborate further on what you’re trying to achieve – also, are you referring to the full page row option? http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/page-metaboxes/#fullscreenrows

I mean for example, how to display an alert when I get to a section by ID name sorry for my awful english

Hey ltwallace, adding a custom javascript alert based on the current anchor would require custom coding to add that event. There’s currently no logic in place to handle that by default unfortunately.
