Hello, I’m using the salient in the Portuguese version and I noticed that when I try to use the border of a text element, it creates a CSS error:

https://prnt.sc/swrdss https://prnt.sc/swrfec

Instead of “solid”, the border is using “sólido”

Hey rolldigo,

The design options tab is a core aspect of the WPBakery page builder and not something Salient alters. It appears that they’re keeping the admin strings translatable in the element options, which is causing the problem. I’ll try reporting it them in regards.

You can correct it from your side if you translate the string via the “js_composer” text domain or keep your admin language as English

Cheers

Hey Nectar! Hope all is well. Thank you for answering my last question. I had a support question with Tahir that he helped greatly with at first but its been over a week from the previous question I sent and he has not responded. Could you help me with the issue?

Hey Louis!

I took a look at your ticket earlier today :)

Cheers

Yes sir! Got it all handled in super speed fashion. Thank you Nectar!

​All of my regular pages have lost the ability to scroll. My home page still scrolls but it is full section scrolling. Anything else like faqs, terms of service, etc. will not scroll beyond what is initially shown in the viewport.

Hey erroredthrone, those permissions are adequate to load the files. Have you verified that high enough permissions are set within all the subfolders as well? Also, are you seeing this loading issue from your end?

Hey,

I tried to check again using browserstack as well as a personal VPN and am still seeing all assets going 404: https://ibb.co/0DL31Zj

Have you tried testing when logged out / on more than one device?

Hello,

How to display portfolio in 2 columns for mobile view? It shows only 1 for now. Thanks

Hey Notre,

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: 690px) {
.portfolio-items .col {
  width: 49.9%!important;
}
}

Thank you !

You’re welcome Notre :)

Hey there! got a question before purchasing your theme. When viewing on desktop mode, is it possible to have the menu bar of the charity-theme the same like for example the blog magazine-theme? thanks for letting me now

Hey humuluslupulus,

Yes, you can configure the header navigation to match any of the demo styles :)

Cheers

Another quick question about image galleries. I’m using the Image Grid Style, Meta Overlaid – Bottom Left Aligned..

Ideally i’d like to be able to use this for just one image, so hoping for a single column layout option. Is that possible? All other combinations i’ve tried to don’t fill the row and ends up acting like a two column layout that’s missing the second image.

Second question. Is there anyway to have the Title / Caption’s when using the “Meta Overlaid, Bottom Left Aligned” layout only appear on mouse? Similar to other styles. Maybe perhaps without the zoom?

I removed the code, just to double check, and it seems like the gallery descriptions are a bit hit or miss even without the code. The page seems to roll the dice on every load and just pick a random amount of descriptions it wants to load, sometimes one, sometimes four, never all.

Hey Zerokenshi,

1. You can change the portfolio modification to only alter the 4 column layout instead of the 2 column one by changing the CSS to the following:

body .portfolio-items:not(.carousel) .col.span_3 {
 width: 100%!important;
} 
2. This snippet can alter the mobile overlay opacity:
@media only screen and (max-width: 999px) and (min-width: 1px) {
body .portfolio-items[data-ps] .col:not(:hover) .work-info-bg {
    opacity: 0;
}
body .portfolio-items[data-ps] .col:hover .work-info-bg {
    opacity: 0.3!important;
}
}

3. I would need to see your actual URL to help with the description

I’ll email you a link at the contact form.

How do I add a search bar in my woocommerce shop? I only want to search “products”.

Hey tinaaa071,

To limit the search to products only, you’ll need to switch to using the WooCommerce specific widget labeled “Product Search” rather than the default WordPress “Search” widget

Thank you!

I found it:)

Glad to hear, tinaaa071 :)

Hello, I’ve having a problem where when Salient is enabled, events from The Events Calendar are not being shown. The problem goes away when I go back to Twenty Seventeen and all calendar events appear again. Is this a known issue by chance?

Sorry, please disregard – I just discovered this plugin was conflict was resolved in a recent release.

Hey teenhype90210, I’m glad you were able to sort it :)

How do i narrow the gap between my logo & navigation menu? I use font family as my logo. I tried to adjust header padding, but it didn’t work.

Hey tinaaa071,

1. It looks like the font you’re using for the logo (Katibeh) as a tendency to align at the base rather than the middle. This can be visually corrected by adding the following into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:


@media only screen and (min-width: 1000px) {
#header-outer[data-format] .span_3 #logo {
    line-height: 30px;
    top: -7px;
}
}

2.

body.material #header-outer[data-format=centered-menu-bottom-bar] #top .span_3 {
  text-align: center;
}

Thank you!

It work! But is there any way to adjust separately to different media screen? When I use first code, it’s okay to desktop screen . The top spacing of my logo looks good. But on my mobile screen, it didn’t work. It still stick at the same place.

Hey tinaaa071,

Here’s a specific to adjust mobile only:

@media only screen and (max-width: 1000px) {
#header-outer #logo.no-image {
    line-height: 12px;
    top: -4px;
    position: relative;
}
}

Cheers

Hi ThemeNectar,
Is there a way to have this kind of parallax movement in a blog post/ portfolio post? I noticed I can enable full screen rows on pages, but not on posts. Am I missing anything?

Hey BlueScreenPanda,

That effect is exclusively available to pages. However, you could create a page with it and link a project to that page by setting the “External Project URL” available in the project configuration metabox.

Cheers

Hi there! My support time is Over! I know! but I am wondering if there is any chance to check this. I have a trouble with video player in mobile!

When I click to play video (in mobile) like my home page(https://iranapollo.com)​, I just see the Black page open as pop-up and nothing displayed on it.

I really appreciate it, if you could tell me what’s wrong! Many thanks,

Hey azimi789!

It looks like that’s occurring due to the older version of Salient you’re on. Once you update, it should resolve itself. Take a look at this guide before doing the update: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/important-salient-update-for-new-envato-requirements/

If you’re unfamiliar with updating, check out the docs here in regards.

Cheers

It is possible in some way to use this layout:

http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-ecommerce-ultimate/product/salient-tshirt/

And instead of the image gallery, be the page I built with WPBackery?

If it is not possible please request this: Build a personalized page for the product in place of the gallery and that the purchase button with the description, stay sticky with form scrolls the page.

Hey ofmarconi,

There’s no option to achieve that as of now, but I’ve noted the idea :)

Cheers

Hello,

Can you see why these are misaligned on homepage on mobile only? I’ve recreated element and still doesn’t seem to be working right?

https://tinyurl.com/y8yzc3wm https://churchviewdentalpractice.co.uk/

HUGE thanks, Liam

Hey Liam, that issue shouldn’t occur in newer versions of the theme. However, to avoid updating you could add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:


body .vc_row.vc_row-flex>.span_12 {
  display: flex;
}

Cheers

​Hi, if I add an image gallery (Nectar slider) in a row with side padding, the slider go out of the section, so the image is partially not visibile (same for right arrow).

Hey gruppowise,

I have just confirmed that’s related to using the slider in a full width content row type + setting the row padding. It’ll be sorted for the next release. 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

Cheers

I’ll waiting for the new release! Thanks a lot

You’re welcome gruppowise :)

Hi, how to write some text on the category subheader? I try to add text on Category > Edit > Description but it goes in another part of the web.. afther the breadcrums.

I want like your web: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-business/shop/ the part “REPRESENT YOUR FAVORITE BRAND” Thanks!

Hey MarcosK,

There is currently no category field for a “subtitle”. WooCommerce only provides a description field. I’ve noted to include an actual subtitle field in the next eCommerce focused release :)

Cheers

Excellent! So how your team actually did that? Cuz if you see the link i send you, its exactly what i want.

Cheers!

Hey MarcosK,

The main shop page can accept a subtitle by using the “page header” metabox when editing the page assigned as the shop page. However, individual categories do not have a subtitle field and will only display the archive category name: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-business/product-category/clothing/

I am very interested in this template, but I see that it uses the WPBakery plugin, I do not like it, is it optional or required? Thanks

Hey tacuatec,

Salient add its element collection through WPBakery, so if you opt to use another page builder you will not have access to most of the building blocks for the theme

Hi, I like the effects of your last new themes (Wellness and Nonprofit) so I updated salient to reproduce those effects in my site but unfortunately those themes didn’t appear in the demo importer.

I installed salient in my local host Mamp in a new wordpress installation and there there wasn’t any problem and the two new themes were included.

After comparing the two sites I also noticed that in the Visutal Bakery the scrolling text was missing in my site so I can use it.

Is this possible? How can update salient in my site to see your last theme and new items of the VB?

Thanks in advance Isabel

Hey Isabel,

Once you’ve updated the theme to the latest version, you will also need to update the included Salient plugins to get access to the new demos and elements. The current version of the Salient Core is 1.6 and the current Salient Demo Importer is 1.2 – earlier versions will not have access.

Cheers

Hello. I updated my site today after a long time and all of the information that usually shows when opening a lightbox “single image” no longer shows. No caption or description. What’s happened? Fully up to date on both wordpress and the theme.

Hey. I can’t remember the exactly version, but I installed it in late 2019. I moved host, so don’t have access to the older install to confirm.

It’s there no way to get single image added pictures to show captions with the new version?

When using the image gallery for single images, the caption displays fine on lightbox, but it displays pre-click in the column / row at a reduced size considered to an image added with single image, likely due to the nav controls ( event when hidden ) perhaps?

If there is no way to get the single image function to show captions, is there either a way to edit the image gallery function to act like single image ( I wont ever need a gallery ) and remove whatever is causing the shrunken image and padding, or is there another option to use?

Thanks!!

Another four hours of trying, i still can’t get it to work. The closest I’ve come to getting the image gallery to display like a single image with descriptions is using the “Nectar Style Slider” gallery type. But that one doesn’t show description unlike Flickety. At the very least, how do i the nectar style to show descriptions?

Hey Zerokenshi,

I’ve noted to add an option to the single image element to display the caption to avoid workarounds. If you’d like a pre-release copy, shoot me an email via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Cheers

Hi,

I try to change the color in the nav bar, however, I can’t find the current color anywhere in the Salient plugin.

This is the css code that should te targeted:

header-outer[data-lhe=animated_underline] header#top nav>ul>li>a:after, body.material #header-outer #search-outer #search input[type=text] {

border-color: #3452ff!important; }

I want to change the 3452ff color.

How could I target this with some custom CSS?

Hey MitchelS97,

In the Salient options panel > header navigation > logo & general styling tab, you can alter that at the bottom with the color pickers (header font hover). Ensure that you have “custom” selected for the “Header Color Scheme” in the same tab

Cheers

Requesting support for videos (like GIF) in the product gallery, adding GIFs makes it very heavy.

The ideal would be to be able to select MP4 videos and they run in the gallery, it would make it much easier.

Like this plugin:

https://codecanyon.net/item/woocommerce-product-feature-video/20628268

It would be very good to be able to put a video in autoplay in thumbnails (small videos) and in the autoplay product page as well but in high resolution.

It would be a modern solution for GIFs

: D

Hey ofmarconi, Thanks for the request, and sharing an example :)

Cheers
