Is there any way to flip fancy box color box hover behavior. Where it shows the image with gradient in it’s natural state but on hover it just shows the page background with fancy border. By default it works other way around. Thanks.
Hey omakad,
add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
#ajax-content-wrap .nectar-fancy-box[data-style]:before {
opacity: 0.33;
}
#ajax-content-wrap .nectar-fancy-box[data-style] .box-bg {
opacity: 1;
}
#ajax-content-wrap .nectar-fancy-box[data-style][data-color] .inner i,
#ajax-content-wrap .nectar-fancy-box[data-style] .inner-wrap * {
color: #fff!important;
}
#ajax-content-wrap .nectar-fancy-box[data-style]:hover:before,
#ajax-content-wrap .nectar-fancy-box[data-style]:hover .box-bg {
opacity: 0;
}
#ajax-content-wrap .nectar-fancy-box[data-style][data-color]:hover .inner i,
#ajax-content-wrap .nectar-fancy-box[data-style]:hover .inner-wrap * {
color: #000!important;
}
Cheers
Could you guys send me the code on how to change color and opacity on Fancy Box with image hover Bottom Color Bar Hover Effect. Thank you.
Hey omakad,
.nectar-fancy-box .box-bg:after {
background-color: rgba(255,0,0,0.3);
}
Pre purchase question: is the theme compatible with Divi builder plugin? Thank you very much!
Hey HugyakAndrea!
We have never tested it with Divi’s page builder, and would recommend using the Salient page builder to gain access to all of the theme specific elements.
Hi, I just added the sidebar in my single post, I’d like to style and I can’t find the way. I’d really like to have a sidebar similar to this http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-blog-ultimate/be-my-guest-concert/ but I don’t know which options I should change. Mine, right now, it’s “naked” https://readthefmanual.it/ux-designer-chi-e/ . Thank you!
Hey LaKugi!
That sidebar is using Salient specific widgets that are included in the Salient widgets plugin. You can read about them in the docs here: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/salient-widgets-plugin/Cheers
Hi! Thank you so much!!
You’re welcome, LaKugi 
hi just did an theme update but images etc arent showing properly in Safari? I have updated the PHP to 7.1 but still having the same issues?
Hey alisonleon, I answered you via email in regards 
Cheers
Hello! I have a little big problem with centered logo header. When I push the of canvas menu button and then close it, the centered logo moves to the right and does not centered anymore. Also, if there is an horizontal menu in the same page, it moves down. ¿How can we fix this?
Hey tmentxaka!
1. The centered logo issue will be sorted in the upcoming minor release.
2. Can you please share the site URL in regard, so I can take a look to assist?
Thanks 
The Add to cart Ajax is not displaying the product ID (name of the item added to the cart that comes just before the text ’’was successfully added to your cart’‘) on any page when using the Product Category Widget included in the Theme. Website is https://airbornekitesurfing.com.au Product ID displays well on add to cart AJAX when added from the Shop page
Edit: Found the code in function.php which is handling this function: <?php echo __(‘was successfully added to your cart.’, NECTAR_THEME_NAME); ?> Looks like this ’’item-name’’ only works in the shop pages and nowhere else.
Hey kitebud,
It looks like you’re using a version of Salient that’s around 3 years old (8.5.5). The Salient specific WooCommerce element (nectar_woo_products) was not added until version 9 and should not have that issue. Is there any reason you do not want to update?
Thanks, I updated to the latest version and that solves the problem except inside a product, when I click ’’add to cart’’ there is no Ajax function and it reloads the page. How can I enable Add to cart Ajax from the product pages (not just in the product archives) ? Thanks
Hey kitebud, WooCommerce does not use the AJAX functionality on the single product by page default – it’s not something Salient is preventing. Adding it in would require some custom coding: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/ajax-on-single-product-page/
Cheers
Hi, its a PERFECT theme thanks. Have a question: What is nectar_blog_post_view_count? It’s show one of my blog post viewed 2135 times. But in the single blog page, visitor or I cannot see a count number or another things like that. Can you give a short brief about that? Thx a lot.
Hey ivanbelarus,
We do not publicly display the count – it’s only used for the nectar widget – popular posts: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/salient-widgets-plugin/
It’s how the top posts are calculated.
Cheers
Hey Nectar! Hope you’re well man. A couple questions, how would you suggest using video with Salient? What kind of resolution do you like to upload the loops in, how long and many mb do you try to shoot for to keep it as lite as possible?
Also does using the link to youtube feature on the Salient light-box make it any lighter? Does using the youtube link have any benefits over self hosting for speed or anything?
Also I did a video going over your recent update – Would love any feedback if you can spare a minute or two.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IoH2tMir20I&t=24sNew update is freaking killer man. I saw you made some amazing developments for mobile. Why do I get the feeling you’re working on something even bigger for mobile development?
I feel like you have something even better up your sleeve for mobile development. Am I on to something?
Hope you’re well man. Look forward to your response.
Hey Louis 
I aimed to keep the videos under 10mb, and the resolution chosen for the new promo page was standard HD (1280×720). If you instead used a video lightbox with an external video such as Youtube, it would be lighter on the page load compared to the self hosted autoplaying option.
Thank you for making and sharing that video! It’s really helpful for the community, and I appreciate the feedback. There’s always room for more mobile features, but v12 was a giant step forward for sure.
Hope you’ve been well too during these crazy times.
Cheers
I want to disable lazy loading of images from my theme. How can I disable it? Please guide me.
Hey utsavchopra30,
Salient only provide a global lazy loading option for the blog element via the Salient options panel > blog tab. Other elements which support lazy loading such as the “single image” page builder element will need to be edited within the page builder to configure that: https://ibb.co/G5Vbw8r
Thanks for reply. Anyway to disable all lazy loading of images at once?
Hey utsavchopra30, you could switch into the classic editor mode and run a search/replace for image_loading=”lazy-load” to be image_loading=”default”
I found the column text alignment for phone and tablet but can’t seem to get it to work. Is it supposed to override alignment settings for the column? If there is a specific place to find info I would greatly appreciate it.
Hey bmacstudio,
It is used to alter the alignment of text placed inside of the column – could you please share the page URL where you’re using the option and experiencing the issue?
Thanks in advance
Thanks… Site in progress. http://staging2.levelupatechelon.com. Pitch perfect Strategy and Our Capabilities list.
Thanks bmacstudio,
It will not be able to override the custom heading element > text alignment option, because those styles get set inline on the element: https://ibb.co/nfdKdrw
It would work as expected if you used a regular text block element with headings and set the alignment via the parent inner row element by using the option for “Text Alignment”. If you don’t want to change the setup, 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) {
.force-phone-text-align-left .vc_custom_heading {
text-align: left!important;
}
}
Hi, How can I insert a “Bestseller” label (or a completely different one) on the product as it is displayed on the promotional price (“Sale!”)? Example: https://imgur.com/a/np84U3B

Hello guys, thanks for the great theme.
I need your help been struggling for days now. my website http://sapoli.ommsocial.co.za/ displays the home slider on mobile very small. how can I increase the height?
Hey richardwells,
When editing your Nectar Slider element in the page builder, you can set a “Minimum Slider Height” that will be used for mobile. Try entering a value such as 250.
Thanks so much
You’re welcome 
Love the update to this theme.
How do you get the overflow video backgrounds as you have on the demo page (http://themenectar.com/promo/)? I can only find single image overflow options in the Salient templates. And can these be hosted on YouTube/Vimeo or do they have to be local?
Thanks,
Hey Picturesmith, that’s great to hear 
That is achieved through setting transforms/minimum width values on page builder inner rows – you can find the sections from the new promo page in the Salient studio template library in version 12. Any content can be positioned like that, self hosted or youtube embeds wouldn’t make a difference.
Cheers
Thanks for getting back to me. I can’t see this in my templates, although I can see it should be from this page http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/salient-studio/
I did a basic Wordpress file install, is that why this template is missing? And is there a way to update the templates?
Thanks!
Reinstalled the whole theme again, still can’t see this template…
Once you’ve updated to v12 of Salient, ensure that you’ve also updated the included Salient plugins – namely the Salient core to 1.5. If you have a previous version of that plugin, you will not see the new templates.
I was being an idiot : P Thank you!
Glad I could help out, Picturesmith 
Cheers
Hello! I hope you’re well and all safe.
When I put a < br > break into the Name section of a team member, it disappears when I go back in to edit that section.
Is there a way to ensure the content put into here stays there? If entered, it stays in there just fine but every time I click edit it disappears and I have to manually place this in again.
Thank you, Adam
Hey Adam,
WPBakery strips out HTML tags from standard inputs – Of you’d like to share your page URL where the team members are located, I could provide a CSS snippet to achieve the same without br tags.
Hope you’re safe as well.
Cheers
Good morning and thank you,
The page is: https://www.doggylottery.co.uk/the-charities/
However there’s going to be many other pages where I require things doing that keep getting stripped out. For example the social icons I’ve placed in the left footer widget, they’re there for now but if I go into that section to edit it they’ll have disappeared.
Thank you, Adam
Hey Adam,
1. The css that can be used for the team members would be something like:
.team-member[data-style] h3 {
max-width: 180px;
}
.nectar_team_member_overlay.open .team_member_details h2 {
max-width: 50%;
}
2. Try switching to using the “custom html” widget instead of the text widget
Cheers
Thank you, I’ll give this a go. Also there’s a white stripe that’s appeared at the top of my website: https://www.doggylottery.co.uk/
I haven’t changed anything to cause this. Please assist.
Kind regards, Adam
Hey Adam, From looking at the page source code, there seems to be an empty row at the very top of the page with 1% top padding set on it. Please edit that row or delete it to remove that space.
Cheers
how do I disable creating copies of image thumbnails as much as possible?
Hey Nicko_217,
Please check out the docs here: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/modify-image-sizes/
Cheers
will this work in a non-child theme?
You can modify the function directly if desired as well, yes.
will need to add this code or comment to code the lines: nectar/helpers/media.php ?
if ( ! function_exists( ‘nectar_add_image_sizes’ ) ) { }
function nectar_add_image_sizes() {
// add_image_size( 'portfolio-thumb_large', 900, 604, true );
// add_image_size( 'portfolio-thumb', 600, 403, true );
// add_image_size( 'portfolio-thumb_small', 400, 269, true );
// add_image_size( 'portfolio-widget', 100, 100, true );
// add_image_size( 'nectar_small_square', 140, 140, true );
global $nectar_options;
$masonry_sizing_type = ( ! empty( $nectar_options['portfolio_masonry_grid_sizing'] ) && $nectar_options['portfolio_masonry_grid_sizing'] === 'photography' ) ? 'photography' : 'default';
if ( $masonry_sizing_type !== 'photography' ) {
// add_image_size( 'wide', 1000, 500, true );
// add_image_size( 'wide_small', 670, 335, true );
// add_image_size( 'regular', 500, 500, true );
// add_image_size( 'regular_small', 350, 350, true );
// add_image_size( 'tall', 500, 1000, true );
// add_image_size( 'wide_tall', 1000, 1000, true );
// add_image_size( 'wide_photography', 900, 600, true );
} else {
// add_image_size( 'regular', 500, 500, true );
// add_image_size( 'regular_small', 350, 350, true );
// add_image_size( 'wide_tall', 1000, 1000, true );
// These three are still needed for meta overlaid masonry blog.
// add_image_size( 'wide_photography', 900, 600, true );
// add_image_size( 'wide_photography_small', 675, 450, true );
// add_image_size( 'regular_photography', 450, 600, true );
// add_image_size( 'regular_photography_small', 350, 467, true );
// add_image_size( 'wide_tall_photography', 900, 1200, true );
}
// add_image_size( 'large_featured', 1870, 770, true );
// add_image_size( 'medium_featured', 800, 800, true );
}
Hey Nicko_217, if you comment out the sizes, they will stop being used when uploading new media.
Yes, this is necessary. would take up less space on the hosting
hi guys, i have a nice layout for one of our pages on desktop but on mobile the layout looks a little off. site url is: https://zigzagame.com/games/
the images that are on the right side show up UNDER the text on mobile which looks weird. Is there a way for me to have a different layout on mobile or have the images display ABOVE the text? Any advice on how to fix this would be much appreciated! thanks!
Hey titansdesign!
Version 12 of Salient introduced the option to reverse the column order for any row on mobile only: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/page-builder-row/#column-direction
Please update to get access to that new feature: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/updating-salient/
Cheers
that is an epic feature! works like a charm! thanks guys
Cheers titansdesign 
Wishlist & Feature Request:
6-column footer
Full-width footer with the ability to contain copyright border width.
Please wave your magic wand 3 times and make Salient even cooler, lol.
Hey arteest, I’ve noted the ideas

AMAZING NEW DEMOS and Additional Flavors!!

Hello! great theme! Please help!
Is it possible to create a slider of several slides (on top of page or header) that only contain diferents slides of transparent text and underneath a video as a background? That is, a background video, and that with sliders (arrows or similar) to move forward or backward to the next slide (only transparent text) while the video is maintained and playing.
Thank you
Hey ivanbermejo :)
You can add your background video as a background to your row which is holding the slider, and then add this into the custom CSS box in the Salient options panel:
.swiper-slide .slide-bg-wrap,
.swiper-slide,
.swiper-container {
background-color: transparent!important;
}
.swiper-slide .slide-bg-wrap {
display: none;
}
Cheers
Hi, ThemeNectar, Please, how can I remove/edit the “About Salient” text that shows below menu item when seen on mobile onthe “classic one page” template? I’ve tried the off canvas menu bottom text setting, but it only adds my thest to the bottom of the Salient one, it does not remove it. Thank you.
Never mind. I found it. It’s a widget. Thank you! Kind regards.
Hey dummy123,
I’m glad to hear you found it 
Cheers
