Which JavaScript file loads the animation or responsible for fade-in, fade-out,etc animation? Please share me the name.

Hey utsavchopra30,

that would be the init.js file, located at salient/js/init.js

Cheers

Is it possible to make the nectar slider load the videos in a Lazy way too?

Because on my site that has 3 video slides, the content of the site is starting to load only after the videos.

Hey ofmarconi, There’s no option to lazy load videos built in yet. That would require the use of a third party solution

THX!

When I first touch the product image on mobile devices, it does not open the product, two touches are required:

In this video I touch the image and outside it, see how it animates, but does not open the product page: https://imgur.com/a/72UKMgb

Hey ofmarconi, The next update will be adding in the option to remove hover effects for shop products on mobile. If you’d like early access, please reach out via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Hi, and thank you for this amazing theme. I want to use the demo http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-slider-portfolio/ but i want the projects to auto slide instead of waiting for the user to click, is this possible ? thanks.

Hey Kazuhira, I’m glad you’ve been enjoying the theme :)

There’s no option built in for that. However, you could simulate the functionality by adding the following into the custom JS code box in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab: https://pastebin.com/22jECaFs

Worked like a charm, thanks :)

Glad I could help Kazuhira :)

Hello,

What is the perfect image dimensions for creating parallax backgrounds? My pictures are always be cropped. I want to show complete picture.

Thanks

Hey tinaaa071, The parallax effect creates the sizing based on the actual height of the row + extra room to allow the effect to work. If you want to show the most amount of image, ensure that you’re using the “fast” option for the parallax speed. If you’re already using that, please share your URL so that I can take a look at your row setup.

Hey tinaaa071,

For desktop, the height of that row is using a divider element set to a static px value. This means as the window width changes, the height will remain the same thus changing the aspect ratio of the background. Edit the divider element, and use a dynamic height value such as “55vh” which will keep the height at 55% of the browser window. On mobile, the parallax images have to crop extra to allow the effect to still work. You can disable parallax scrolling on mobile devices only if desired in the Salient options panel > general settings > functionality tab via the option “Disable Parallax Backgrounds On Mobile Devices”

Is video background compatible with Cloudflare Stream?

https://developers.cloudflare.com/stream/video-playback/third-party-players/

can I paste the address they provide instead of the MP4 of your theme?

Hey ofmarconi, video backgrounds in Salient are using standard HTML video tags and simplifying positioning them to fill the content area. They’re not a Salient-specific solution, or making use of a third party javascript player. The HTML video element expects a .mp4/.webm file format.

Thx!

You’re welcome ofmarconi :)

hi guys, how can the team member lightbox be edited? The large member photo on the right is a little too big and I’d like to customise that. Is there a way to perhaps remove it altogether as well? Thanks

Hey titansdesign,

You can add this snippet in as well :)

@media only screen and (min-width: 1000px) {
body .nectar_team_member_overlay .team_member_details {
    padding: 5% 25%;
}
}

Cheers

awesome, thank you

You’re welcome titansdesign :)

BUG: Lazy load not working for fancy box. It adds ‘%20background-color:’ after the image name and fails to load. (404 error)

Hey 7107digital,

Since this isn’t a known issue, please reach out via the contact form on my author page with the URL in regards so that I can take a closer look at the setup https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Thanks in advance

Hi there, once again thanks for all the good job done with this theme. I have been using it for quite a long and never ever had to ask for support, my support expired many months ago and i never got to ask a single question, but now i need to know only one piece of advice, im pretty sure someone asked about this before, how is it possible for me to put the “add to cart” button in the shop catalog in a fixed way, i dont want it to appear when you hover the mouse over, i want it always to be there, could you guys poiint me in the right direction pretty please?

Hey PixelP3rfect,

add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:


.woocommerce .classic .product-wrap .add_to_cart_button, .woocommerce .classic .product-wrap .product_type_variable {
    transform: none!important;
}

Cheers

Thatas awesome!!!!!! thanks a lot brother, is there a way so i can put the button at the end of the product block instead of over the title? regards you are awesome!

Hey :)

You can add the following for that:


.woocommerce .classic .product-wrap {
  position: static;
}
.woocommerce li.classic.product {
    padding-bottom: 35px!important;
}

Dear ThemeNectar, is there a way to slow down the scrolling text ? its already on slow and still waaaaay to fast ;). thanks for helping

Hey selassie75,

Hi,

If someone adds a comment in a post including a link, this link work correctly.

If someone (or myself) replies to this comment including a link this link does not work

Is it possibile to have the link included in the replies working ?

Thanks

Hey smartlabitalia, Try to add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:


body.original .bypostauthor .comment-body:before {
 pointer-events: none;
}

If that doesn’t change anything, kindly share your URL in regards so that I can take a look

Cheers

Hi, it works ! Thank you vey much.

You’re welcome, smartlabitalia :)

is it possible to add a footer background video?

Hey iforapps, as of now there’s no built-in option for that. You would need to manually add the video into the footer.php, which could be copied into your child theme.

Cheers

Hi, I love your theme is amazing, but how can I do to order portfolio view in alphabetical order? Thanks.

Hey vaughan, The portfolio element does not have an option to specify the query parameters. However, the new “Post grid” grid does and can also pull portfolio items: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-promo/dynamic-post-grid/

Hi! I would like to ask how long it may take to get an answer on the submited ticket? Thanks!

Hey DannysVibe, we answer tickets in most circumstances within 24hrs.

Translate Press – It’s a sort of pre install question: is Translate Press plugin ok with Salient? I have built a really small B&B site with Salient and now I need to have two more translations to help my client, avoiding wpml expensive solution. thanks for any advice. (BTW: Loco Translate is too buggy to be considered.)

Hey guasconi,

While it’s not one of the plugins we’ve thoroughly tested, I can’t see why there would be any issues. Salient is setup to offer translatable strings by the official WordPress standards.

Cheers

great. ”, I can’t see why there would be any issues. ” :) I LLLLOV this anwer iihih thanks guys!

Hi! I have installed the child theme and I do now want to add the author to the header insida a blogpost. With file is is i must modify? Thanks!

www.nordigt.se

Hey AlexanderMJ!

The author display can be toggled in the Salient options panel > blog > post meta tab via the option labeled “Remove Single Post Author ”. If you’re trying to modify something else, you can copy the function “nectar_page_header” from salient/nectar/helpers/page-header.php into your child theme.

Hi! I did do that. I copied the exact folder path. But nothing happens. Is that really the file for my selected header on nordigt.se?

Hey AlexanderMJ, For the page header modification it’s not the file that needs to be copied. It’s the actual function itself inside of the file. The one named “nectar_page_header” would be added into your child theme functions.php file.

Cheers

  • FEATURE REQUEST *

Our UX tests have show that there is user confusion over the function of Fancy Box element on touchscreen devices. User expectation is that they can touch to ‘undo’ the hover effect.

Request to add support for this to theme or disable on touch devices.

Hey JoshuaMaker, thanks for the feedback.

You can disable the touch interactivity for now by adding 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) {
 .nectar-fancy-box {
   pointer-events: none;
  }
}

Hi, I was just wondering if you offered a volume/multi-site license, or if it was something we could discuss?

Hey BenTomsett :)

We don’t personally have control over that – we can only specify the price for the theme itself. I would reach out directly to Envato in regards: https://help.market.envato.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

Hi Nectar, sorry to bother but i can’t get the scrolling text feature working on that page is there anything you could do to help ?

oh forget it… heading tag… solved

Hey selassie75,

I’m glad you were able to resolve the issue :)

How to fix search layout- the search results too clumsy – https://flytnow.com/?s=public+safety

Hey utsavchopra30,

It looks like that’s occurring due to the third party lazy loading for image you have enabled in the setup. You’ll either need to exclude the search results from using that functionality, or switch to the non masonry layout option in the Salient options panel > general WordPress pages > search results tab
