Ive been using themeforest for 8 years now and I think this is the most versatile, easy to work with, most maintained by the author and most value for money. I only have 1 question. How do you make the CTA open in a new page? Many thanks
Hey lam09, that’s very kind of you to say. It’s awesome to hear you’ve been enjoying the theme since the initial release 
Are you referring to the theme option call to action, or the page builder element call to action? The page builder element has an option for that directly in the element settings. If you’re trying to add that into the theme option section, you’ll need to copy the salient/includes/partials/foooter/call-to-action.php file into your child theme and add the following attribute onto the link: https://pastebin.com/3mTdbVgV

Hello ThemeNectar,
I wanted to know if there was any way to get Main Shop Layout full width AND with left sidebar ?
Thanks in advance
Hey EspaceTech,
Set the shop layout to “left sidebar” and then add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
.post-type-archive-product .container-wrap > .container {
max-width: none;
padding: 0px 60px;
}
Cheers
That’s perfect! Thank you very much.
You’re welcome EspaceTech 
Thanks!
How can I hide the widget bar on mobile phone?
Hey EspaceTech,
Add in the following as well:
@media only screen and (max-width: 1000px) {
.post-type-archive #sidebar {
display: none;
}
}
Cheers
Thanks, perfect!
Glad I could help, EspaceTech 
Heall Slaient team,
.post-type-archive-product
I just found out it’s only changing the Main Shop. I’d also have to change the categories. What’s the css class?
Thanks in advance
*Hello
Hey EspaceTech,
You can use the class name “tax-product_cat” for that.
.post-type-archive-product .container-wrap > .container,
.tax-product_cat .container-wrap > .container {
max-width: none;
padding: 0px 60px;
}
@media only screen and (max-width: 1000px) {
.post-type-archive #sidebar,
.tax-product_cat #sidebar {
display: none;
}
}
Cheers
Perfect thanks!
You’re welcome, EspaceTech 
having a lot of issues ; trying to move quick but no support available ; no detailed tutorial and documentation ; having yellow border show in logo and image on page. importing more than one demo duplicates items. really unsatisfied with this purchase. awaiting response on refund . waste of time and money. highly recommend to stay away
Hey ahsanusmani,
I’m sorry to hear you’ve run into some issues. The support turnaround can be up to 24hrs, especially on weekends. As I mentioned on your ticket, there is no issue in Salient that would cause yellow borders to surround all of your images. If you can provide a URL I’d be glad to take a look and assist.
Hi Team,
How do i update the theme from v11.0.4 to the current version 12.0? I want to retain all the settings and custom CSS made in v11.0.4.
Thanks in advance.
Hey Karthikdruv,
There’s nothing special you need to do when updating from v11 to v12. You can use any of the methods described in the docs here: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/updating-salient/
All the theme options will persist through the update 
Great new update, however i found that in the Vertical Sticky scrolling its not showing buttons nor links inside the tabbed sections.Looks fine in the front end editor, but as soon as you view the page, all buttons and links disappear. Any workarounds regarding this?
Thank you, LuisFaus 
This is a confirmed issue that will be sorted in the upcoming minor release due out tomorrow (12.0.1).
Cheers
Oh awesomeness! thanks for the prompt reply and action.You guys are awesome!
Happy to help, LuisFaus 
hi guys, do you have demo for ecommerce? interested!
Hey filmguerilla,
The two most recent e-commerce demos are:

this video background won’t play on mobile phones. https://skipthebus.com
Hey brianfreeman,
You’ll need to switch to using the self hosted video option (mp4, webm) in order to get mobile playback. The Youtube option is not possible to autoplay on mobile:
I have webm & mp4 on there plus the YouTube option. all 3 and still doesn’t work
Hey brianfreeman, when a youtube URL is supplied, that is the only video markup which will be loaded – you need to remove that in order to use the self hosted option.
I’ve done that any nothing shows
The video behind the text “Experience San Francisco” is still showing as a Youtube embed from my end – did you already switch it back?
Are you not able to see the self hosted video display on any viewport or are you still referring to mobile only? If you’re referring to mobile, please also ensure that you do not have the option enabled titled “Disable Video Backgrounds On Mobile Devices” in the Salient options panel > general settings > functionality.
I switched back. but I just removed it again so you can look. and I do have the disable mobile turned off
It seems that the mp4 you’re providing (which is what iOS will load) is either not correctly for web playback, or your server isn’t setup for that yet.
You can verify this by accessing the mp4 file directly on your phone or is Safari on desktop to see it will not load: https://skipthebus.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/videoplayback.mp4vs a test video: http://themenectar.com/videos/video-test.mp4
Have you already tried to run it through a video converter such as the one listed in the docs: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/page-builder-row/#video-background ?
if I add your video link it works. I ran video through both your convertors and still not working https://skipthebus.com/1006635-2/
If you already have the necessary htaccess file types added for mp4, you should reach out to your hosting company in regards and share with them the direct file link to your mp4
Hey guys, awesome new version
When I have a video player with a image preview and a mouse follow, the play button is always at the bottom (on my browsers), check https://blindedhearts.com/
Thanks a lot rockzi, your site is looking great!
That is occurring due to the lazy loading on the img within that element. If you can exclude that element from your lazy loading script, it should correct the issue.
Cheers
Thanks man, glad to hear that. Thanks for your advice, worked perfect. I used SMUSH and I turned off the lazy loading option. And if I have one wish for version 13, I would love to have an audio player ;-))))
Glad I could help, rockzi 
I’ve noted the request
I have used this theme for a poject https://themisfit.world/ Now changed.
Hey SpaceDesignAgency, the URL you’ve shared is not currently using Salient – do you have any sepcific questions regarding Salient?
Hey,
Sorry i’m an old customer I tried so long to correct a tiny problem. Maybe you can help me I would like to use my title as a link into my dropdown simple – I used a css for my “slide out” dropdown menu it works well but when I change the style of menu into dropdown simple it doesn’t work anymore. Can you help me ?
Thanks so much !!!
Hey Jrm57,
add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
#header-outer #mobile-menu a > .sf-sub-indicator {
width: 100%;
text-align: right;
}
Cheers
Yes ! Thank you so much 
You’re welcome, Jrm57 
Hello, the new demo ‘Wellness’ is beautiful! But how can I style the off canvas menu? It seems that changing the font options ‘Off Canvas Navigation’ doesn’t do anything.
Looking forward to hear from you!
Thank you pgspoor 
The menu links within the off canvas navigation in the wellness demo are inheriting from the typography section you’ve mentioned. Can you please share your URL in regards so that I can take a look at your setup?
Yes that is http://hetslaapatelier.nl/wellness-home/
I would also like to change the layout a little bit (margin etc.), but don’t know if I need to write some own css, or is this an option in the theme?
Thanks pgspoor,
Instead of using the widget area to populate your navigation, which will end up at the bottom – you can directly assign a menu to it via the Appearance > Menus > Manage Locations section in your WP admin. Once you’ve assigned it to the “Off Canvas Navigation Menu” location, it will inherit the styling from the typography theme options.
Ah great! Thank you so much, that was it 
Glad I could help, pgspoor 
Hey ThemeNactar,
I simply wanna add a “by <?php the_author_posts_link(); ?>” to the blog page header using the Ascend skin and a child theme. However, I can see that the single.php I use in my child theme is diffrent from the latest single.php in Salient 12. And this change thus needs be made elsewhere.
Everything looks cool, so my “old” single.php doesn’t seem to cause any issues. But the problem is the changes I make in that single.php don’t work. And I can’t see where else to make that change.
I can see the theme structure has changed in the latest update, so it’s a little different find my way around it now 
Can you help?
Another question: How can I get a different logo only on the front page (Ascend skin)?
I’ve tried with this css and I can see it’s slightly visible under the standard logo uploaded via Salient theme options:
.page-id-5134 #header-outer[data-transparent-header=”true”].transparent.dark-slide >header #logo img.starting-logo.dark-version { background: url(”/wp-content/themes/klarbevidsthed/images/logo-live-black1.png”) left top / 100% no-repeat scroll !important; }
Thx, Peter
I can see the img logo is being set in the source file. So I guess no css can overrule that. How do I make the relevant change in the source file (/nectar/helpers/header.php)?
Hey mikromakro 
1. Are you using header images for your blog post? If so, the output for the single blog header is actually created in the salient/nectar/helpers/page-header.php file via the function titled “nectar_page_header”. Modifying this would require copying the function into your child theme as well
2. The logo is not set a BG image, but rather served as a standard HTML img tag. Because of this, it would be cleaner to copy the logo output function “nectar_logo_output” from salient/nectar/helpers/header.php into your child theme and make a conditional with PHP.
Thanks ThemeNectar!
Issue 1: resolved 
Issue 2: found the function but writing a php conditional is beyond my skills!
But I guess I can’t be the only one with a need to display different logos on a page level basis? That would be a great option in the Salient theme settings.
But in the meantime would you mind showing me the php-code for this conditional? It would be of immense help.
It could also be helpful for other Salient users with a basic understanding of html, css etc. And would be a handy code snippet instead of a “different logos” theme option (or until it might be implemented).
Best,
Peter 
Hey Peter,
Towards the top of the function, underneath “global $post”, you can add in the following:
if( is_page('about-me') ) {
$nectar_options['logo'] = 'http://domain.com/custom-logo.jpg'
}
Inside the is_page function, you can use the slug of any page.
Cheers
Hey ThemeNectar,
Thanks for your quick reply!
I copied the code exactly as you prescribed like this:
if ( ! function_exists( ‘nectar_logo_output’ ) ) {
function nectar_logo_output( $activate_transparency = false,
$off_canvas_style = 'slide-out-from-right', $using_mobile_logo = 'false' ) {
global $nectar_options;
global $post;
/* Custom code below to specify specific logo on front page
- Inside the is_page function, the slug of any page can be used
- From Salient support 29/4-2020 */
if( is_page('frontpage') ) {
$nectar_options['logo'] = 'correctly specified url'
}
But when loading the page I get this parse error:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘}’ in /home3/pete/public_html/wp-content/themes/klarbevidsthed/functions.php on line 51
Where line 51 refers to the ending ‘}’.
I’ve double checked the code, url etc. but keep getting this parse error. Can you figure out what’s wrong?
Thanks, Peter
Hey Peter,
Sorry about that!
You need to add a semicolon after the ‘correctly specified url’. i.e.
if( is_page('frontpage') ) {
$nectar_options['logo'] = 'correctly specified url';
}
Thanks! No parse error now 
But it’s not quite there. There are three img tag outputs in the processed html but the change only occurs for the .stnd class, i.e.:
The change needs to happen for the last img declaration; img.starting-logo.dark-version.
The normal logo = logo-live-white1.png The front page logo = logo-live-black1.png
I can see the normal logo is pulled from the uploads folders. The front page logo is pulled from the child theme image folder.
I’m using the Ascend theme skin.
Can you figure out the final step? 
Cheers, Peter
Arrgghh, damn! Sorry for the mess. Here’s the code one last time without any domain reference!
Copied from Notepad now:
Hope this works!!!
img class=”stnd” alt=”Klar Bevidsthed” src=”the domain/wp-content/themes/child-theme/images/logo-live-black1.png”
img class=”starting-logo” alt=”Klar Bevidsthed” src=”the domain/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/logo-live-white1.png”
img class=”starting-logo dark-version” alt=”Klar Bevidsthed” src=”the domain/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/logo-live-white1.png”
Hey mikromakro,
To alter all the images, you can change the modification to the following:
if( is_page('frontpage') ) {
$nectar_options['logo'] = 'correctly specified url';
$nectar_options['header-starting-logo'] = 'correctly specified url';
$nectar_options['header-starting-logo-dark']
}
Awesome 
This works perfectly.
Btw, hope these “hacks” don’t slow down the loading speed of the site in any way.
Thanks so much for your patience and help!
Best, Peter
Glad I could help, Peter 
Hello, We would like to buy your design for https://www.mekjoy.com/seo . Do you help with integration?
Cheers
I want to change the titles on the footer sections to another color
Hey brianfreeman, in the Salient options panel > footer tab, you can activate the “Custom Footer Color Scheme” and set the headers by using the 2nd Footer font color field.
Cheers
Hi, Congratulations on your last update! It looks great—especially the editing panel.
Quick question: Which plugin you recommend for the “wishlist” to work properly with the modern view?
Thanks a lot 1×20 
We have no added further integration with any wishlist plugin yet so unfortunately I don’t have a specific one to recommend at this time.
Is there any way to have the Custom Thumbnail Image for one specific Portfolio Item as a static image? No hover, no effect and no hyperlink to the project page. Thanks!
Hey Mindthemix!
It would be possible. You’d need to add a css class name to the project so that it could targeted in isolation. There’s a field called “custom CSS class name” available in the project configuration metabox for this. For an example, add the class name “no-pointer-events” and then add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
.no-pointer-events {
pointer-events: none;
}
Cheers
Thanks so much!!
You’re welcome Mindthemix 
Hi, great theme i have recently purchased for blog i am nearly finished to upload on official site/server from staging/demo site. but i am facing one issue. on homepage i am using post grid, i want to add numbers instead of load more/ infinity scroll, here is the link of staging site http://hexaademo.com/talkingmethod/
i loved this design just want to add numbers at bottom of to to scroll to next blogs but i have only seen two options ( none and load more) in pagination .
Hey abrehman94,
The post grid is a relatively new element and does not include an option for a standard numerical pagination yet. For that, you would need to use the “blog” element
Cheers
Hello again, thank you clear for understandable response and thank you for knowing my need. one thing i want to know is there customization available so i can add numbers at bottom instead of loadmore. actually i love post grid styling it is minimalist simple attractive. also my team members loved post grid element styling and more. Thank You.
Hey abrehman94,
We are not personally available for freelance customization gigs at this time, though if you’re looking to hire someone for the job, Envato Studio would be a good place to look. https://studio.envato.com/

Hi best team ever!
In the Agency theme, the header is sticky, fully transparent both before and when scrolling and the logo automatically changes color depending on background.
(1) How to fix this in Corporate 3?
(2) How to get the same Agency theme’s off canvas overlay menu effect and styling in Corporate 3? (Enabling “Off Canvas Navigation Menu” in the menu settings will only add the menu links, not the same styling and effects.)
(3) How to (3a) apply only the lowest footer part seen in Agency to Corporate 3:
http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-agency/and (3b) apply it only to specific pages, for instance the Practical Map & Contact Info Split page from Salient Templates (and full footer on other pages)?
(4) How to get the same page heading styling in Corporate 3 as in Agency? Tried applying same typography settings to the H1 tag via Salient options > typography > general HTML elements tab and tested to change Page Heading Font and Page Heading Subtitle Font, but none of it did the trick. Also the down arrow is different from Agency.
Thank you so much for great work as always!
Cheers, Mr. Cross
Hey Mr. Cross 
Is there any reason you do not want to import the Agency demo theme options? If you want to take on 100% of the styling from that demo, you could import them using the demo importer: https://ibb.co/L8QspPM
1. You need to enable the option titled “Header Permanent Transparent” in the Salient options > Header navigation > transparent header effect tab
2. The off canvas menu style the Agency demo is using is “Fullscreen cover slide + blur bg”. The typography settings for the off canvas can be set in the theme options > typography > Off Canvas Navigation. It’s using Montserrat at 44px
3. Salient options > footer tab > Footer Reveal Effect – there is no option to add the footer only to specific pages. That would require modifying the footer.php via a child theme.
4. Please share your page URL in regards so I can take a look at the current settings
Thanks in advance
Hi,
I have a single row, with rows and columns inside – I use this as the footer for a website. I’ve chosen this over using the widget area for greater customisation options. Can this row (that’s used as a footer) populate automatically at the bottom of every page on the site? That way when i make an edit to the row, the change updates throughout the site. Otherwise, I have to manually save the row as a template, and then load it onto every page of the site – and if i edit the row (footer), this has to be repeated.
Hope that makes sense and thanks for the great theme!
Hey Ewanbenoit!
WPBakery page builder has a plugin called Templatera that adds global templating functionality.

Hi
I have my website with Salient + WPbackery but now I require to use CPT of jetEngine + ELEMENTOR.
What price does it have for me to design my current website that I have with Salient and WPBacker and move it to ELEMENTOR?
Hey themeforestfuv,
