Hello, I’m trying to translate ”View” hover mouse on Post Grid. I’m following your instruction in another post putting two file it_IT.mo and it_IT.po (generated by your salient-core.pot ) in the wp-content/plugins/salient-core/languages folder but it doesn’t work. Could you give me some tips please? Thanks a lot.
Anna
Hey Anna,
For translating plugins you should use a plugin such as Say What, LocoTranslate, WPML etc. to keep your translations separate from the plugins and allow them to persist through future updates.
For a quick example using Say What, can you confirm this does not work on your end? https://ibb.co/q5g27jz
Hi there, I used Say What plugin as you showed me. Thanks a lot, again, for your tips. Great theme and great support. Best.

Hello I have a nectar slider with a video background, but in the mobile version it doesn’t work. I have read in a comment that it is due to the use of data. But is there any possibility of forcing this video background on mobile?
Hey sergiosainz89,
Do you have the option “Disable Video Backgrounds On Mobile Devices” in the Salient options panel > general settings > functionality tab turned off?
Please share your URL in regards so that I can take a look.
Hi Salient, I have the off canvas menu when we land on the homepage with a video playing in the header.
My question is, when scrolling down, can i switch to a normal secondary header that is sticky that has all the links etc at the top? I don’t want the hamburger menu flyout enabled when scrolling down, just the main top menu.
It might be easier to have this as an option, so a default clean landing menu, EG: simple logo left, hamburger flyout right. Then scroll and the main menu is used.
Is this possible?
Hey Wobblefin,
There’s no built-in functionality to accomplish that as of now, however you could make use of the Secondary header layout. When using that and the material theme skin, it will only display when at the top of page. Here’s an example: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-ecommerce-ultimate/
surely this can be done though? how is it that it is not a common option in themes these days?
http://www.trinityforestgc.com/ There is an example of the idea…..also, in your example are you talking about the special offer banner? I assume it is not really easy to put a responsive menu there?
Hey Wobblefin,
1. Can you please share your actual page URL? If so, I can provide a CSS snippet to do something similar.
2. That area is also a menu location – a regular menu can be assigned to it if desired.
Hey sergiosainz89,
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) {
.span_12.light .nectar_video_lightbox.play_button_with_text .link-text {
margin-left: 0;
}
}
Are there any ideal dimension for Nectar slide graphics? Next question, is there a way to position the header/caption a bit more to the left so that it lines up with the header logo?
Hey arteest,
1. It depends on how large the area is that you’re putting the slider – for full width sliders, I would recommend a width of about 1600 – 1800 to ensure good quality on desktops. The height would vary depending on your settings.
2. You can adjust the padding with the following snippet:
@media only screen and (min-width: 1000px) {
body .swiper-slide .content {
padding: 0px 25px;
}
}
freakin’ awesome! Thank you.
Glad I could help arteest
Hi Phil,
nevermind… looks like it got resolved. I switched the font loading from google to theme and then back and now the problem seems to be gone…
And you still rock the best theme out there!
Glad to hear you got it sorted, TheChuckOne

Hi ThemeNectar,
Beautiful theme as always. Loving the update.
Quick question, if you could visit: https://www.designreborne.com
The issue I am having is when viewing the site on mobile devices it’s hard to tell what each thumbnail represents due to the info appearing on the hover state. Is there a way for mobile devices only to show the portfolio information i.e. title and description or would I have to create 2 separate layouts, one for desktop and one for mobile.
Your thoughts and help would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks.
Best, Alan
Hey Alan,
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) {
.portfolio-items .work-info,
.portfolio-items .col .work-info .vert-center *,
.portfolio-items .col .work-info i {
opacity: 1;
}
body .portfolio-items .work-info-bg {
display: none!important;
}
.portfolio-items .work-info {
position: relative;
}
.portfolio-items .col .work-info .vert-center {
transform: none;
}
}
AWESOME!!! A million thanks. That’s exactly what I need. Appreciate the help.
Best, Alan
Glad I could help, Alan
Hi guys, i think there is no out of the box solution to display images like amazon does it with their products (one big one and some thumbnails at the bottom to clic)? If thats the fact, can you help me what works best with your template or do you know any solution or plugin? thanks for your help!
i see you have an solution for the gallery in the woocommerce template. Is it possible to use it or rebuild it in an normal site? The other question, am i free in filling the woocommerce products with content elements form the WPBakery Editor? also for the additional information etc.? thank you so much for your help!
Hey haoe,
1. The gallery on the single product pages is a core feature of WooCommerce itself and not something Salient is adding. Therefore, currently it can not be extracted and easily used on other pages outside the WooCommerce product template.
2. The page builder can be used to populate the description tab, which will be displayed on the single product page under the product. An example can be seen here: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-ecommerce-ultimate/product/berlin-green-shirt/
The other information about the product will all be populated using the default WooCommerce functionality
Hello, i’ve sent you an email in regards to the french .po file. Could you please email it to me. Thank you
Hey danyno45, I emailed you earlier today in regards.

As always, you rock! That did the trick. Thank you.

Hi,
The Back To Top Button functionality it’s enabled, but it don’t appear in the website.
How can I solve that?
Hey revcomunica,
The scroll to top button will be hidden on pages that use the fixed social sharing option. Are you using that in your setup? If not, please share your URL in regards
In the future, please use the support forum for multiple questions: https://themenectar.ticksy.com/ – This area is reserved for simple questions and presale inquiries
Thanks in advance
I don’t use social sharing option in my website, I use the links to the profiles in some social media in the menu area. It is the cause of the problem?
The URL is www.zambrano.pro.br
Hey revcomunica, taking a look at your URL there’s actually a javascript error occurring that’s likely the cause of the issue. coming from the plugin “Page scroll to ID”. Please try to deactivate that and test again.
Hello,
It didn’t work. 
I uninstalled the “Page scroll to ID” plugin, but before that, the “back to top” button was no longer showing. And, after uninstallation, it still doesn’t appear, even though I configured it so it appear.
Hey revcomunica,
Please open a ticket on our support forum in regards with temporary admin credentials so that we can take a closer look into this: https://themenectar.ticksy.com
Kindly let me know the ticket ID here once you’ve done so.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
It is possible to make the menu with scrolling ID, in a one page site? How can we do that?

Hi TN,
When you put a lot of text ‘inside’ a team member on this element / page: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-business/about/#team, the scrolling on laptops becomes unusable (very, very fast). Is there a fix for this?
Hey hookieoalo, This will be sorted in the next release. If you’d like early access, Please reach out via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar
Thanks in advance
When I click in the sidebar widget area, witch has a button in the menu, has no content and don’t open by click. I can’t configure it in the widget panel or by using the WP bakery/elementor.
Is there any other way to adjust that?
Hey revcomunica,
Can you please share your URL in regards and explain a little further what you’re trying to modify in regards to the off canvas menu?
Thanks in advance
Thanks, but I decided to disabled the button.
You’re welcome, revcomunica
Hi nice theme but problem with translatio of “Search …” in header.
I follow the instruction of this page: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/translations/ but:
- plugin Say Waht not work - if I generete via poedit .po y .mo and store it in wp-content/languages/themes/ I can translate “Read more” and other labels but not “Search …”.
So where I can translate this string!!??
Hey stefanoroma,
The search placeholder string in the header navigation should be either “Search” without the … or “Start Typing…” depending on your currently selected theme skin. Only the WordPress widget search should have the string “Search…” – is that what you’re referring to? In any case, all of those strings should be in the “salient” text domain – Could you kindly share your URL in regards so I can take a look?
Thanks in advance
Solved Thank you. It was a other plugin Search and Filter that make “interference”. Thank you.
Glad you got it sorted, stefanoroma
Hi, I am buying this theme because I client is trying to duplicate a WP site that uses it. However, in their backend I see that the Salient Child Theme is activated. How does this work? Do I buy Salient and then have to install the child theme some other way outside of a normal WP theme upload?
Hey AtticRush,
A child theme is the WordPress way of safely modifying aspects of a theme (templates/functions/css) without ever touching the theme itself. https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/advanced-topics/child-themes/If you’re trying to duplicate an existing setup, you would install Salient and then upload a copy of their child theme into the new setup and activate that.
Cheers
Hi there, could you tell me, please, how or if I can exactly reproduce the same (colors, text position) portfolio effect that I see in the page where you show the pre-built website included with Salient (with black background, centered text at the bottom of the preview work)? I’ve tried with post grid plugin, imported from your example panel, but the result it’s not the same. Thanks, best.

Hey Anna,
The Salient studio template titled “Dark Portfolio Grid Cards” should provide the exact look https://ibb.co/mGzSSyR. Could you share your page URL where you’re using that so that I can take a closer look?
Thanks in advance
Thanks for reply, sorry but your link go to nowhere, and I can’t find “Dark Portfolio Grid Cards” in studio template. Just to be sure what I mean: http://preview.themeforest.net/item/salient-responsive-multipurpose-theme/full_screen_preview/4363266?_ga=2.265686415.1820660489.1589451296-322757640.1589202451 I’d need to replace the same portfolio in black background. Best.
Anna
Hey Anna,
Sorry about that – Here’s another link that should work: https://ibb.co/mGzSSyR
Have you updated to the latest version of the Salient core plugin? (1.6) Earlier versions will not include the latest templates.
Hi there, even now I notice I didn’t update Salient core…:) ops! Thanks for your support. Best.

Glad you got it sorted Anna
With the business home page is it possible to put a video instead of the image?
Hey obpro,
Yes, a video background can be used in the page header as well as in the background of any page builder row where desired.
Cheers
Great ! I’m a freelancer and I’m looking for something dynamic. Feedback of testimonials with photo and dedicated pages and my services on the home page, infographics etc … is this possible? Can we mix the different models? For each of the templates can we change the positioning of the navigation bar? Sorry but I have to be sure
Hey obpro,
You can check out all of the testimonial styles here: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-promo/testimonial-slider/
Any of the Salient page builder elements can be mixed and matched as desired on the same page. I would take a look through the “elements” section on the above link to see all that Salient offers.
Cheers
Hi guys, great new update. Question: Is it possible to customize the footer a little more? Take, for example, the footer of Mailchimp https://mailchimp.com/ I would like to be able to place vertical lines in this way. Is this something you will be offering in the future?
Thanks PascalvanM
A vertical separator such as that would require CSS as of now. If you can share your URL, I’d be glad to provide an example snippet.
Cheers
Hi there,
Great!
https://webdesign-ruimdenkers.nl/ruimdenkersHope to here from you soon. Would be great if this were a feature in a future update. Would really complete the theme 
Great job! Love it
Hey PascalvanM,
add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
#footer-widgets .container .row >div:first-child:after {
background-color: #000;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
right: 25px;
height: 100%;
width: 1px;
content: '';
display: block;
visibility: visible;
}
#footer-widgets .container .row >div:first-child {
padding-right: 65px;
}
Cheers
Ah great! Looks much beter now. Hope this will me a feature in the next update.
MANY THANKS!!!!
Is it also possible to remove this line on mobile? Looks very strange now on mobile. On iPad it looks great!
Hey PascalvanM!
You could wrap that snippet in a media query like so:
@media only screen and (min-width: 690px) {
#footer-widgets .container .row >div:first-child:after {
background-color: #000;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
right: 25px;
height: 100%;
width: 1px;
content: '';
display: block;
visibility: visible;
}
#footer-widgets .container .row >div:first-child {
padding-right: 65px;
}
}
Hi there, this does not work unfortunatly
Hey, I’m not seeing the media query added on your site. Can you please ensure the old snippet is removed and only the newer one I just provided is active in your css box?
That was it! Again, many thanks. Awesome!
You’re welcome PascalvanM
Hi there. I am having a slight issue with my Nectar Slider fonts. I can’t seem to get the size(s) to change. For example, this font should be 90, but it’s only about 50% of what it should be. Any suggestions? I can use Slider Revolution if needed but I prefer Nectar. Thank you.
https://bit.ly/2Z5jyciHey arteest
I can see that the 90px font size is taking place on a normal desktop display ( > 1300px wide ), the first responsive sizing for small desktop is likely what you’re seeing.
Please try to edit the parent row’s type from “full width content” to “full width background” or “in container”, and then change the Nectar Slider element itself to use the option “Display Full Width”. This should alter the calculations of the font sizing to be larger for the small desktop view.
Cheers
