Hi, is it possible to add anchor links for Default Tabs? I’d like for it to go to a certain tab for the submenu. Thank you for a great theme.
Hey jihoonheo,
If you use the new style, “Vertical sticky scrolling” it would be possible. Since that tabbed style doesn’t hide tabs, you could simply add an ID to one of the rows in a given tab and then link to that anchor from your menu.
Cheers
Got it. What is the best way to add the ID when using the Vertical Sticky Scrolling? Thanks for the quick response.
Hey jihoonheo,
You can add inner rows to your tabs, and then add the ID on those rows.
Cheers
Hello,
I am looking for a way to add columns (2 or 3, to be tested) to my image gallery when it is displayed in mobile version. Currently, the gallery is displayed with a single column.
Do you have a solution ? CSS code?
Thank you.
My website is : https://mariages.lesfreresbasquin.com/
You can check on a mobile, the images are only displayed in one column. It takes up too much space.
And, why doesn’t my “video lightbox” launch on mobile? (It’s a YouTube link).
Thanks!
Hey LFB_Productions,
1. Add this into the custom CSS box in the Salient options panel:
@media only screen and (max-width: 690px) {
body .portfolio-items .col.span_4, body .portfolio-items .col.span_3 {
width: 50%!important;
}
}
2. I can see that your lightbox is opening on mobile - are you referring to the fact you have to click to play the video once it’s opened? If so, that’s because mobile devices block video embeds from autoplaying.
Cheers
Hello,
1. Thanks, but it doesn’t work…
2. Yes. However with your theme demo « eCommerce Creative », I can see the video played on my mobile. Not on my site.
http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-ecommerce-creative/I have a display problem on my contact form. I do not understand why my text is not displayed correctly.
I would like this (it’s a screenshot on my website > Apparence > Custom OR directly in preview of Caldera Forms): https://mariages.lesfreresbasquin.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/bug-1.jpg
But, on my site, it’s like this (home page) : https://mariages.lesfreresbasquin.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/bug-2.jpgWhy ?
Thanks.
Hey LFB_Productions,
1. Sorry about that – you can use the following instead for your setup:
body .portfolio-items .col.elastic-portfolio-item {
width: 32.5%!important;
}
2. The eCommerce creative demo is not using a YouTube video for the background – it’s using the self hosted option (mp4/webm), which is capable of automatically playing on mobile devices. See the “YouTube Video URL” section in the documentation in regards: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/page-builder-row/#video-background
3. It looks like you’ve since removed the checkbox – could you add it back in so that I can take a closer look?
1. This puts me 3 columns on mobiles and it no longer appears as before on the PC version…
2. Ok thanks!
3. It’s done!
Hey LFB_Productions,
1. The CSS snippet still needs to be wrapped in the mobile media query from above – a complete example would be:
@media only screen and (max-width: 690px) {
body .portfolio-items .col.elastic-portfolio-item {
width: 32.5%!important;
}
}
3. That space doesn’t appear to be coming from a CSS conflict, but rather actual spaces in the markup and break tags: https://ibb.co/dKwwPn6 Without seeing the backend, it would hard to say how those are getting in there. But you can remove them by adding in the following CSS:
.caldera-grid .checkbox-inline br {
display: none;
}
Perfect ! Thank you !
You’re welcome LFB_Productions 
Hi—my footer reveal does not seem to work in Safari at https://thefictionstoryroom.com however does seem to work in chrome or firefox. Do you know what this issue could be?
Hey JayCarver,
I can see the footer appearing when viewing in Safari 13.1.1, and Safari 12.1 from my end. Can you let me know what version you’re experiencing the issue on and provide a screenshot?
Thanks
Thanks for the response, I noticed now that this issue is only when I am logged in. The entire footer area is just blue. Have you sen this issue before?
Hey JayCarver,
Thanks for clarifying. Add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab to correct it before the next release:
body[data-slide-out-widget-area-style][data-footer-reveal].material.admin-bar #footer-outer {
z-index: 2;
}
Thanks that worked!
Glad to hear JayCarver 
Using the recent posts element with hover shadow – inherit colour from image.
The shadow on hover appears very glitchy on safari – https://lounge68.com
Hey MarcGarner,
You can correct that by adding in the following CSS:
body .nectar-recent-posts-slider_multiple_visible .flickity-viewport .nectar-recent-post-bg-blur {
transform: translateY(38px) translateZ(0);
}
Cascasing Images are not loading in Chrome most of the time (I have a red underlay to images that should be showing and it doesn’t load in Chrome 95% of the time). Anyone else having this issue?
www.brewerconsulting.co
Hey ericlee,
That issue looks like it’s occurring due to the lazy loading option you have enabled in WP Rocket. Please disable that option to verify.
Thanks in advance
that fixed it! Thank you so much!!
Glad I could help, ericlee 
Is there any way to soften the effect of the parallax effect fancy boxes. To make them a little smoother and softer when hovered over.
Hey MarcGarner, The parallax effect is created with JavaScript so CSS alone won’t be able to alter it other than the styling. Is there something specific you’re trying to alter in regard to that?
It was just to soften the responsiveness so the effect is slower and gentler. But not to worry it’s great anyway.
I have no tabbed section in elements?? I have many elements missing as well
Hey hanidanibami,
Can you please check on the following:
- You have “All” selected for “Elements” in the WPBakery page builder settings > role manager tab
- No third party plugins are causing the issue – you can check by temporary deactivating any which may be related to extending/altering WPBakery
- You’re on the current version of the Salient WPBakery page builder (6.2.0
Thanks in advance
Hi Guys, Great work, quick question. I am able to use 2 overlay colours for normal block (row) but when I enable shape divider, is there anyway to choose to overlay colours for the shape divider? Otherwise it looks like this: https://ibb.co/F5rHJZj Thanks
Hey anthonysinclair
Is the shape divider added to the same row as the above content? If so, there should be no gap. Could you kindly share the actual page URL in regards?
Hi, is there an option to replace pagination with the “load more” button on the serach.php page?
Hey BoringOwl, there is no option built into Salient for that. However, I’ve noted the idea on the wishlist.
Cheers
Hi, We set the video background in salient wp page builder but it cannot be displayed in mobile version. Last year when I created the website, it displayed but now it cannot. Can you help us sort the issue? Thanks
Here is our website: https://theflow.love
Hey thenovagroup, When attempting to access your video file directly in a mobile browser, I’m noticing a large stall occurring: https://theflow.love/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Pexels-Videos-1390942.mp4
Please try to run your video through a web encoder, such as the one described in the documentation: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/page-builder-row/#video-background Also, you should aim to keep the size much lower than it currently is for fast web playback. It’s currently around 75MB, which is not suitable for a background video. You could compress it down around 10MB or less judging from the video length.
Cheers
Hi ThemeNectar,
Is there a way to target main footer font size/ properties without affecting the assigned global property?
Hey BlueScreenPanda,
add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
#footer-outer .col {
font-size: 12px;
line-height: 1.8em;
}
Hi my website https://thefictionstoryroom.com/ and the posts within it generally score poor page speeds and get “E” on YSlow grade. Is there anything that can be done to get at least regular results? I now have my website behind CDN but it has not changed performance speeds. I get a ton of errors about the javacscript or CSS. For the most part I optimize the images but nothing seems to help. Is the theme just that heavy in code?
Hey JayCarver,
If you examine the GTMetrix report, you’ll see all the specifics of what’s causing the low score. There’s lot of third party JavaScript being loading, which is not set up to be cached correctly (Google Ads, webform, Youtube): https://ibb.co/dkby1yc
You also need to enable minification for CSS and JS – it’s an important aspect of performance. I recommend W3 Total Cache or Autoptimize:
How do I change the header link mouse hover color? I change in header settings but nothing happens?
Hey hanidanibami,
After you’ve specified a custom color for it in the Salient options panel > header navigation > logo & general styling tab, please ensure that you have the “Header Color Scheme” set to “custom” within the same tab, above the color pickers.
Cheers
I did that but it stays white
Hey hanidanibami,
If you’re using the transparent header effect, the colors for that are in the relevant tab (Salient options panel > header navigation > transparent header effect tab). If you’re not using that, please share your URL in regards so that I can take a look at the setup.
Question on the portfolio section, I would like to use the full screen rows page style on the Portfolio pages. Can this be done, or is there a way of achieving the same effect? Alternatively could a page be created and then linked to the portfolio section so that the full screen rows can work on portfolio pages?
Hey ds_ign,
To make use of that option, a separate page would indeed need to be created and then linked to the project. You can link any project to a custom URL by adding in the desired URL into the “External project URL” field in the project configuration metabox: https://ibb.co/3NzKbdx
Cheers
Hi. I have a problem with the WpBakery Page Builder, with the admin user I can view it to edit in the backend but in the store manager user not.
It is activated in the role of store manager, to be able to edit the backend but nevertheless it does not show it. How can I do?
Hey mirazoqui, are you using the latest version of the Salient WPbakery page builder (6.2.0)? This was a confirmed issue in earlier releases that the developers sorted out.
Yes. I’m using the laster version: 6.2.0
Hey mirazoqui,
I can’t replicate this issue locally. Please open a ticket on our support forum in regards with temporary admin credentials so we can take a closer look into this: https://themenectar.ticksy.com
Thanks in advance
Hi, my search results returns condensed font vibe365.ca
Hey djb19,
The search results use an h2 for the typography and will inherit the letter spacing from the Salient options panel > typography tab > general html elements tab > heading 2 field. If you want to alter the search results separately, add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
body #search-results .result h2 {
letter-spacing: 0;
}
Thanks! it worked. Is there a way I can see what users input in the search field? This is very useful for analytics and to see what site visitors are looking for.
Hey djb19, you would need to use a plugin to achieve that functionality. Here’s a guide in regards: https://www.monsterinsights.com/how-to-set-up-site-search-tracking-in-wordpress-step-by-step/
Cheers
Please improve the woocommerce checkout page: D
Give it a “Salient” touch.
Hey ofmarconi, thanks for the request 
Hi, I’m trying to use this plugin with salient but most of it’s features are not working for e.g. play video automatically on the shop page itself, adjust width and height of the thumbnail on the shop page, etc.
Plugin: https://woocommerce.com/products/product-video-for-woocommerce/ Plugin Demo: http://woocommerce.addifypro.com/product_videos/shop/
My site: https://mysterymdev.wpengine.com/product-category/videos-animation/
Is there a code that I can add so this functionality starts working?
Hey adiojack, I just tested with that plugin locally and can not see a difference in the autoplaying of youtube videos added from that plugin when Salient is active or the default WordPress theme. Are you able to see the videos autoplaying when swapping themes?
Salient also automatically ensures youtube embeds are displayed in a 16:9 aspect ratio for convenience. I’ve noted to prevent that logic when custom values are assigned in the product video settings for the next release.
Cheers
Hi, the plugin developer looked into it and this is what they said.
We found the incompatibility issue. We can see that iframe on shop pages is stylized inline by using the code of JS.
All height and width we adjust for the iframe are removed and new styling is added in style property.
Please check the inline style property of iframe.
Kindly ask your developer or theme support to remove this functionality for product listing pages.
So you can see the videos according to the settings of the module.
If they provide you a solution, it will be much better.
Otherwise, we can implement another solution that will override this solution.
We suggest you resolve this issue by the developer of theme support.
It is a perfect way to resolve the issue.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/lpw68vqmfhq3njf/Capture.PNG?dl=0Hey adiojack,
Thanks for relaying. As I mentioned, Salient does ensure YouTube embeds are displayed in a 16:9 aspect ratio – however we will
be removing that functionality for the plugin in the next release 
Did you also get clarification on the other issue “e.g. play video automatically on the shop page itself”?
Hi, I’ll get clarification on that.
Can you tell me when is the next release of Salient is expected?
Hi, I won’t be able to wait till Sailent’s next release and hence I’m going to dump this plugin for now and put videos in under the description part.
Can you help me figure out how to reduce space between Add to cart button and Description tab?
Hey adiojack,
1. There’s no ETA at this moment, however if you’d like an early copy with this specific fix included Feel free to reach out via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar
2. Could you kindly provide a screenshot highlighting which are you’re trying to alter? From taking a look at your product page the add to cart buttons already seems close to the text above it.
Cheers
Hi Team
You were supposed to fix a bug with the next update of the theme but so far there is not fix even after many updates.
Here’s what you had said
>> Thanks for relaying. As I mentioned, Salient does ensure YouTube embeds are displayed in a 16:9 aspect ratio – however we will
be removing that functionality for the plugin in the next release 
I’ve updated my Wordpress version and now my Lightbox functionality is broken. It will only fix if I update the theme. When I update the theme, I lose the custom fix to the above issue.
Please suggest what can be done?
Hey adiojack,
I replied to your emails earlier today in regards.
Cheers
When using the Recent Posts element in page builder, there is no setting to specify a solid color or gradient color, you can only choose between Solid or Gradient for the BG Overlay setting.
Changing the Background Overlay color in Salient Settings > Blog does not affect the overlay color in the element, neither does the Paralax setting as the Recent Posts is Paralax when the setting is set to NONE on the Blog settings under theme settings.
Hey LevationHosting,
1. CSS would be required to alter the overlay color for that element currently. Here’s an example which you can add into custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
body .nectar-recent-posts-single_featured .nectar-recent-post-slide .nectar-recent-post-bg:after {
background-color: rgba(255, 0, 0, 0.6);
}
2. The page header theme options will only affect the actual page header defined for a page, which is configured by the bottom “page header” metabox: https://ibb.co/6ZkH6ft
Hi there,
Is there a reason why the RSS readers are not reading the featured image for the blog posts when one is set? Instead they are pulling embedded article imagery. How do I fix that?
Thank you, ThemeNectar. That didn’t work, but at least I know it’s not on your end.
