Noticed the post grid option – Content Under Featured Image. Are there any demos or screenshots of this at all?

Thank you :)

You’re welcome, jbennett360 :)

Hi,

My portfolio bottom navigation Next/prev. has a white space on top which i want to remove.

I edit this code:

.bottom_controls {
    background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.03);
    padding: 40px 0;
    margin-top: 40px;
    position: relative;
    z-index: 1;
}

to

.bottom_controls {margin-top: 0px!important;}

but that does not fix the problem. In Chrome Dev tools when I remove that top 40 works, but when I put the actuall CSS it does not do anything. Do i have the wrong CSS selector?

Hey toolbox101,

Can you kindly share the project URL so I can take a look why your CSS is not taking effect?

Cheers

Thanks, took care of this, there was a code conflict.

However, I have one more question, if I am using the new post grid for portfolio and want to adjust the font size of the project Excerpt where do I go to do that? I have tried Portfolio Caption/Excerpt in the Typography section but that did not work.

Can you help? thanks

Hey toolbox101,

The post grid excerpt only inherits the body font properties for now. You can use CSS like so:


.nectar-post-grid .nectar-post-grid-item .meta-excerpt {
 font-size: 14px;
}

Hello, in the last Po-file (last update 20 April 20) the link to the following words is missing:

1. All (project) 2. Previous Project 3. Next project 4. Back to all projects

Can you please create the links for the translation?

greeting

Hey vik_,

What plugin are you using to translate the strings? i.e. such as locotranslate, Say What? etc.

In locotranslate, there’s an interface to translate from all of the active plugins. In Say what, you can directly define the string you want + the text domain: https://ibb.co/Gp0T7wT

Cheers

Hi, I wanted to get by without plugins. Is it possible to translate the text areas listed above with Poedit.app? I changed most of the text areas with the app. Cheers

Hey vik_, You can open the wp-content/plugins/salient-portfolio/languages/salient-portfolio.pot file and generate a .po/.mo in your language code to store in that folder. The translations can’t be done within the same files you are translating the theme strings from.

Svg’s are no longer being accepted within the single image module whereas before they were with the “SVG support” plugin. Is there a fix for this as Im sure many users will want to continue using svg’s

Hey damien522, I responded to your ticket on the support forum in regards.

Cheers

hi, yep, thanks for that…sorry, shouldn’t have posted in both places. Awesome support thanks

Glad I could help, damien522 :)

hi there, we are using your theme. visual editor stopped working after latest wp update. Do you have a fix for it?

Hey parm23, If you’ve already verified that no third party plugin you may have active is causing that, please reach out via the contact form on my author page with a temporary admin account so I can take a look at the error https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Thanks in advance

Hi there,

On this (news section) page: https://eventsoftwarebenelux.com/klant-aan-het-woord-olga/ all my hyperlinks are white (and my bg color is white as well). I would like them to appear in blue: #00afef. If I add this to css : body a {color:#00afef} it changes to blue but also all my links on for example my home page. How to fix this?

Thanks!

Hey Abbenhues,

You can use the following CSS in regards:

.single-post a {
  color: #3555ff;
}

Cheers

Thank you for being there! Please be aware that the recent posts titles are shown smaller on mobile (something like that: 33 px on desktop, about 17 on mobile – almost like my body, no difference). All the best!

Hey antongrigore,

Thanks for letting me know :)

Cheers

Hello ThemeNectar. Another great update, thanks! Just a simple question: Can’t see the option to remove Nectar Love (in Salient Social > Customizing)?

Is that a bug/mistake or can you do it elsewhere? Or with CSS? I’m using the latest WP.

Hey mikromakro!

1. Could you try to delete your current version of the Salient Social plugin and reinstall it via Appearance > Install plugins?

2. salient/nectar/helpers/blog.php
salient/nectar/helpers/pagination.php

Cheers

Thanks, it worked. And thanks for pointing to /nectar/helpers too.

Enjoy a great day :)

Glad I could help, mikromakro :)

Thank you so much for the v12.0 update! Love being able to add header options to custom post types and to override Salient element template files!

Happy to finally share the release with you all :)

Cheers mrittman

Hi team, is the function ‘full height’ of the nectar slider disappeared in the 12 version? Cannot able more to put nectar slider on full height.

Hey Geneticamultimedia,

Make sure that the parent row which is holding the Nectar Slider is set to full width background for the type. If that’s the case, the Nectar Slider element should reveal the “Display Full Width” and subsequent “Fullscreen Slider” options.

Cheers

Yes… thanks :) was unable to realize. Adored the 11v of salient theme and in love with the 12v, how fast it is!!!!

Awesome to hear, Geneticamultimedia!

I’m trying to eliminate the header and footer margins on blog posts but can’t find any CSS or setting to do this. Do you have any recommendations?

Hey evanstewart4,

The CSS needed to alter the single post template would vary depending on your blog settings. Could you kindly share a post URL so I can provide the needed snippet?

Cheers

Here is the link the the post I’m referencing: https://obsessedacademy.com/blog/too-expensive-objection

I would love to be able to apply this to other posts as well, but this is the first post in question.

Hey evanstewart4,

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


.single-post .container-wrap,
.single-post .post-area > article .content-inner,
.single-post .main-content > .row  {
  padding: 0;
}

If you like to limit it to specific posts, you can instead add it into the custom CSS in the page builder (top right gear icon).

Cheers

Hi, Is it possible to make the background image, in row settings, responsive on this theme

Hey Dkomborero,

Because there are so many possibilities for how a row can be setup, it would be hard to help without seeing the setup you’re using. Could you alternatively provide a screenshot of the desktop/mobile state?

For some general advice, if you’re using top/bottom padding on the row – make sure you’re using a % based value instead of a pixel based value. Depending on how much content you have in the row, ensure that the typography responsive settings you’ve specified in Salient options are allowing adequate resizing.

Thanks Dkomborero,

In order to have the image set as the BG in your row remain similar on mobile, the aspect ratio of the row would need to remain similar on both viewport sizes. As of now, the aspect ratio is changing dramatically. Altering this would mean a greater reduction in the size of the text used via the theme options > typography > responsive settings, and removing the right/padding padding on the column that’s preventing the text from expanding the full width of the container.

Salient uses the CSS property “cover” for background sizing, which ensures that the images is used at exactly the size needed to fill the space to prevent empty spaces:

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/background-size

Hello, is there a font overview (webpage) with all the standard fonts in Salient?

Hey ponchovogel,

Salient includes access to all the free google fonts, and should be displaying a live preview of what the font looks like when you select it via the typography options. If you’re looking for a live preview before selecting the font family, you could check out the main Google fonts page here: https://fonts.google.com/

Cheers

Thank you :)

You’re welcome :)

Hey, Team Salient!

Some realy cool features in your update. Especially column direction for different devices is realy cool, was long needed and clever too! Chapeau. Salient is the best! I recommend all my customers and friends Salient. Stay the way your did last years.

Regards, BD.

Hey BD, that’s awesome to hear! Thanks so much for dropping by to spread some love.

Hope you’ve been well :)

Hi there! How can I add a custom field (ACF) to the blog posts that are shown on a page which has the “recent blogs” module of the Salient VC builder? I would like to add a custom field above the title. And also would like to add a “Read more” link.

Hey reijerstevens,

If you’re using the recent release, around line 250 :)

Thanks, that worked! And if I would like to add the same content to the single post page header with blog header type “Variable height minimal” below the h1 entry title? Which php file handles that?

Great, reijerstevens :)

For the next mod, if you’re using post headers without any featured image assigned to the header the file will be salient/includes/partials/single-post/post-header-no-image-regular.php If you are using image based post headers, the file will be salient/nectar/helpers/page-header.php

Hello, Do you have some PSD for Salient? thanks

Hey molinpierre, I’m afraid Salient does not provide any PSD files for the demos

Amazing update as ever! Thanks for the ongoing development

Thanks ND81! :)

I’ve updated to the latest theme and WP 5.4 but my top portfolio image is no longer showing the images on all portfolio pages. The images appear on the home page and in the ‘preview’ and are all accessible so not sure what the problem is.

I also get the error: ....public_html/wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php on line287​

Hey garethvaughan,

Can you please share your URL in regards so I can take a look? Alternatively, feel free to reach out via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Thanks in advance

Hi ThemeNectar,

Got this theme in 2017 and am still loving this theme in 2020. Many thanks for the wonderful theme and constant updates.

However, after updating with the recent update (v12.0), I dont see the new features added in the changelog? Is it because my WordPress version is not up to date (v5.4)? My web host dont plan to update our PHP..

Thanks & stay safe, Leonard

Hey leonardlyz, thanks a lot!

After updating the theme, make sure you also update the included Salient plugins to their current version as specified in the “updated” section of the changelog.

Hope you’re staying safe as well :)

Oh yes got it alr thanks a lot!

For WordPress it can be found at Appearance > Themes > Plugins.

Thank you once again.

You’re, welcome leonardlyz :)
