Hey Team Salient!
I want to edit the “category page” but can’t find the source .php file or function responsible for displaying the content when a reader clicks a tag link.
Can you tell me where to locate the source file/function?
Best, Peter
Hey Peter,
The index.php file is used for all archive blog pages (tags/categories/date etc..) The header function displayed on that archive is called “nectar_page_header” and can be found in salient/nectar/helpers/page-header.php
Cheers
Thx! All cool 
You’re welcome, mikromakro
Hi the single portfolio page is also aligning the “Image comparison” left. There is no option to center it, column center, row center etc does nothing.
Please update this or send code to fix, it has been a week now since the video player not centering on the single portfolio page either….
wow i actually notice this comment from 4 years ago! Ok i will not wait any longer, hopefully this .css fixes it….
https://pasteboard.co/Jb53PkO.pngIn your update, put options in settings, like “FIX ALL BROKEN PORTFOLIO ISSUES” button Have it off by default, then it won’t mess up everyones layout.
update…...wishful thinking that .css would fix the issue 
Hey Wobblefin,
The same technique that I previously described to you for centering items in a row by using row the left & right padding still applies to this: https://ibb.co/R3HfhTQ
When you supply content in your row which is not large enough to fill the available space, you can simply add in left and right padding on the row (in an equal amount) to reduce the available space and push all inner content to the center. If you’re unable to get that working on your site, I will glady create an example in your setup – just open a ticket in regards with a temporary admin account. https://themenectar.ticksy.com/
Thanks in advance
Hi there. Is there a way to remove the logo a transparent navigation on the homepage only (and/or other selected pages) until the user scrolls. Reason is that I have the logo in the middle of the page header and I don’t want it duplicated in the header until the user scrolls down. I have tried experimenting with the different logo nav option but can’t get it to do what I want. Many thanks
Oh and can I also move the header text up the page more than the vertical alignment “top” option allows?
Hey wints77,
1. You can accomplish that by adding the following CSS into the page builder css box (top right gear icon in the page builder)
.transparent #top #logo {
opacity: 0;
}
2.
body #page-header-bg[data-alignment-v="top"] .span_6 {
top: 0%!important;
}
Cheers
Thanks. On point 1. that does remove the logo but I’m then hoping for the logo to come up when the user starts scrolling. Is that possible?
Hey wints77,
Are you using a permanent transparent header? If so, this modification would not be possible with CSS alone since there is no class changed to the header when scrolling with that option. If you’re not using that option, please share your URL in regards so that I can take a look why the CSS is not taking effect.
Thanks in advance
Great. I have removed the permanent transparent header and your solution works perfectly. Thank you.
You’re welcome wints77
Hi! is there a simple way to move the comment section insida the article section?
Hey AlexanderMJ!
That would require modifying the single.php file via a child theme in regards.
Cheers
How did you add the button/box around “Sign Up” in the top right header menu “Business 3 Right Menu (Top Navigation Menu Pull Right)” on this page? http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-business-3/
Hey ehong33234,
Please see the following in regards: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/header-button-links/

Hi @ThemeNectar! How to remove “View Cart” button from minicart?
In custom css this not working .button wc-forward.{ display: none; }
Link to site: https://freshfoodmsc.ru/
Hey Dilik!
add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:

display: none;
}
Thank you!
You’re welcome Dilik
Hello, After debugging, I understand that “News” being a post_page, you can’t get the page id by $post->ID, which is been used in get_post_meta() methods. So I wrote the following piece of code. if(is_home()){ $force_transparent_header_color = get_post_meta(get_option( ‘page_for_posts’ ), ‘_force_transparent_header_color’, true); }else{ $force_transparent_header_color = (isset($post->ID)) ? get_post_meta($post->ID, ‘_force_transparent_header_color’, true) : ’’; }
on my site, I have created a Posts landing page as "News" and I'm trying to apply the "Dark" color scheme for "Transparent Header Navigation Color" for that specific page.Which gave applied the “data-midnight” attribute correctly, but still missing the “dark-slide” class because your function didn’t get the right page id for “News” page again being the post page, it didn’t worked.
Lastly I found that, if I extend the above piece of code in “nectar_get_header_variables()” method. My problem would be solved. But the function is not pluggable function. and most of the helper functions are non-pluggable.
Is there any way, I can extend these function without modifying the parent theme.
seems like, my support is expired. can you help here?
Hey Dsourc,
As of now that would not be possible. However, i’ve noted to add in a filter for that into the next release to allow the modification.
Cheers
Hi – Is it possible to add the Title and Caption to the Flickity Static Height Style gallery type? Thank you in advance for your time.
Hey akaleo,
The “description” will show in the lightbox for each image, if you have the option “on click” set to “open lightbox”. However, there’s currently no built in option to display the title or description under each image in the carousel before opening the image. I’ve noted your +1 for the idea on the wishlist.
Cheers
Thank you very much. Yes, I’m trying to use it as a simple scrolling gallery – showing a title and date of artwork. I tried the other options but haven’t manage to replicate the following example…
https://bit.ly/36SEaGWI would guess many artists, photographers, etc. would use this functionality.
Thanks
Hey akaleo, thanks for sharing the example
It will likely make it in as an optional feature in the next release.
Cheers
You’re welcome, and thank you very much!
Cheers akaleo
If you’d like an early copy of the next release once this feature gets added, feel free to shoot me an email via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar
Thank you so much, I will definitely do that! Cheers!
You’re very welcome, akaleo
Hi there, I just purchased a theme and tried installing it. But it is giving me an error of: The link you followed has expired. Please try again. Been installing themes many times but this is the first time i’m seeing this error. Could you help?
Hey thesundaystudio, Please check out the documentation here in regards. Usually that error would only occur if one of the PHP settings on your server did not meet the requirements.
The video background isn’t loading on mobile and not showing on 100% of the screen. It gets cut off. Note: I tried submitting a ticket, but the system is showing that my license is expired, though I extended my support.
Hey conciergecreative, Ticksy usually takes around an hour to refresh license codes. Are you still unable to post?
It’s posted now, thanks!
Thanks conciergecreative
Hi, I’m unable to switch a tab from an image on the same page. I follow your instructions here:
http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/page-builder-overview/But I need to change the tab without reload the whole page, just a tab switch from an image inside the same page. Is this possible?
Thanks
Hey lumierestudios,
Unfortunately there’s no way to control a tabbed element from another element. This would require a new javascript event.
Thank you for your answer. To explain you better, I want to use a tab with images instead text (i.e. Tab 1 I need to be an image, Tab 2 another image etc.). How can I change the Tabs text with an image?
Is this solution possible (maybe with CSS)?
Thanks
Hey lumierestudios,
Thanks for the clarification. Here’s an example of what that CSS would look like:
.tabbed > ul li a {
text-indent: -9999px;
width: 300px;
padding: 0 0 30%!important;
background-size: cover;
}
.tabbed > ul li:nth-child(1) a {
background-image: url(FIRST-TAB-IMG.JPG);
}
.tabbed > ul li:nth-child(2) a {
background-image: url(SECOND-TAB-IMG.JPG);
}
Cheers
Thank you!
This is exactly what I need.
Glad to hear lumierestudios
My apologies, one last question
I want to create two tabs into the same page, how can I create differnet thumbnails for every tabs? If I use your class (that work very well, thank you), the same images appear on all my tabs.
Thank you again
Hey lumierestudios,
Edit the parent row which holds each tabbed section and give it a class name so that it can be targeted separately. For example, the class name “image-tabs-1” (without quotes) could be on the first row, and “image-tabs-2” on the next row. The CSS would then change to
.image-tabs-1 .tabbed > ul li:nth-child(1) a {
background-image: url(FIRST-TAB-IMG.JPG);
}
.image-tabs-1 .tabbed > ul li:nth-child(2) a {
background-image: url(SECOND-TAB-IMG.JPG);
}
.image-tabs-2 .tabbed > ul li:nth-child(1) a {
background-image: url(FIRST-TAB-IMG.JPG);
}
.image-tabs-2 .tabbed > ul li:nth-child(2) a {
background-image: url(SECOND-TAB-IMG.JPG);
}
Perfect, thank you again for your precious help
You’re very welcome lumierestudios
Once I’ve chosen a page header overlay color, there’s no way of getting rid of it. How do I do this? Why is this so hard? Default button doesn’t work.
Guys, I really love this theme but I stumble over quirks like these all the time. It’s annoying and makes an editing session unnecesserely hard and time consuming.
http://uweconrad.ch/dev/about/Hey scratsmacker,
The version of Salient you’re on is a little over a year outdated. Salient has since changed that “default” button to a “clear” button. You can still remove the color by expanding the color picker, highlighting the color hex and deleting it: https://ibb.co/wwV49nZ
http://themenectar.com/changelogs/salient.htmlHi, on my home page, I have 5 columns with “Learn More” buttons inside each: http://35.222.23.148/~agingres/
I’m wanting to align the Learn More buttons, so they’re not staggered. Is this at all possible, while keeping the functionality of the responsive design?
SOLVED: After much trial and error with some CSS, I was able to find a solution.
Hey mrittman,
Glad you were able to sort it
Hi, I’m having a very difficult time creating a simple list of items with icons using the built-in elements. I want it to work well on mobile devices as well. Unfortunately, I had to resort to HTML tables for this functionality: http://35.222.23.148/~agingres/meal-site-menus/
Is it at all possible to create this exact setup using the built-in elements?
Hey mrittman,
The Icon List element would be the closest fit for that: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-promo/icon-list/ CSS would be needed to get that gray background/border as you have in the table though. It currently doesn’t allow links in the text description, but we’ll be adding that possibility in the next release. If you’d like an early copy, shoot me email via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar
Ahhh yes, that does get it pretty close to what I’m looking for, thank you. The icon list element is pretty limited in its current state, yes. A few suggestions: 1) Back end editor: Instead of saying “List Item”, this should show whatever the user has typed into the Header field. Would make it easier to distinguish each. 2) Replace “Text Content” with full WP text editor (links, etc). 3) Ability to set specific icon colors for each list item. 4) Ability to choose your own images as icons, instead of using icon libraries. 5) Background color/styling for each list item.
Hey mrittman,
Thanks for the requests/suggestions
Hi,
2 questions:
- how to display contact form 7 fields on 2 columns? - is it possible to add a bar above the main menu with icons and text?
Thanks
Hey growmeagency,
1. Ensure that you’re on v12+ of Salient and check out the docs here in regards http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/contact-form-columns/
2. There’s no option to use icons in the menu area, but you can enable the “Secondary header bar” in the Salient options panel > header navigation tab. It will provide an area for text as well as a menu location in Appearance > menu
Hi, thanks for your reply. Regarding no.2, is that text area able to detect the written icon shortcode (as in the text blocks)? Regards
Hey growmeagency, that input is not going to parse shortcodes by default. If you would like to use shortcodes, you’d need to copy the following file into a child theme for modifications: salient/includes/partials/header/secondary-navigation.php
I’m trying to get the page to load faster. It gets stuck for a few seconds before the page loads completely. When I look at GTmetrix does it look like the theme is loading lots of google fonts that I haven’t activated? I’ve just activated Roboto, but it loads several others it looks like. www.nordigt.se
Hey AlexanderMJ,
I’m only seeing Roboto coming from Google fonts on your URL. The other fonts Open Sans and Iconmoon are apart of the theme by default. You can remove open sans from loading by selecting “do not load default font” in the typography options: https://ibb.co/HnYj0gz
Hi ThemeNectar,
Can you let me know if this is possible please: https://snipboard.io/XyDdxB.jpgAnd not sure if this is a Salient or Wordpress question, but is it possible to remove certain items from being seen in search results, like for example, posts or categories?
Hey Micatuca,
1a. The coloring for the header navigation search can be altered in the Salient options panel > header navigation > logo & general styling tab at the bottoms by selecting “custom” for the “Header Color Scheme”
1b. For the coloring of the search results header, see the Salient options panel > General WordPress pages tab
2. The search results shown per page is dictated by the WordPress option “Blog pages show at most” in the WP admin > Settings > Reading tab.
3. To modify which elements display in the actual search, you would need to copy the salient/search.php file into your child theme and delete the segments you do not wish to show – there are conditionals for each search result type.
Cheers,
Hi, How to remove “Select options” button from variable products on the main WooCommerce shop page? Thanks
or add to basket from shop category page. Thanks
Hey b1b,
add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
.woocommerce ul.products li.product a.product_type_variable.add_to_cart_button {
display: none;
}
Cheers
Thank you for this – it worked! Another small issue if you don’t mind. Some of the product in the shop don’t have prices and when that happens I get “Read More” button which I would also like to get rid off. Thanks
PS Would it be possible to hire one of your team to help me configure woocommerce?
Hey b1b,
1.
.woocommerce ul.products li.product a.button:not(.add_to_cart_button) {
display: none;
}
2. Unfortunately we’re not personally available for freelance work. However, Envato offers a simple service for customization gigs: https://studio.envato.com/explore/wordpress
Cheers
Suggestion to enable the possibility of animated thumbnails in woocommerce, to be able to put a video instead of gif which is very heavy.
Hey ofmarconi,
Thanks for the request
Cheers
Hey, I’m trying to add a simple hyperlink in the “icon list” element, but the content editor strips all html markup – so that won’t work.
I tried adding a “raw html” element and hard coding the icon list based on what appears in the page source of a render page with the icon list added. This method only works when placed below an actual “icon list” element. As soon as I delete the “icon list” element and update the page with the “raw html” still enabled, the styling is lost.
I don’t love having to do a workaround like this to be able to simply add an anchor link to some text, but I’m willing to do it this way – if it would work. Again, the styling is lost, and I’m just left with some simple div’s and no “icon list” as was designed by Salient.
Please advise.
Hey trantergrey,
The text content is saved as a shortcode attribute, and thus has HTML limitations by WordPress. However, the next update will provide an option to bypass this. If you’d like an early copy of the release, please reach out via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar
I know it took me forever to reply to this, but things just got busy last week. Thanks for your reply and continued support. I really love designing with this theme!
No worries at all trantergrey
Cheers
