Hi Phil. Regarding the new grid cards for portfolio and blog, is there a way to change the sort/filter animation? I believe the earlier isotope versions shifted/moved the cards around.

The current version uses opacity and the cards remain static until the view is refreshed. Anyway to change the animation to use the previous filter effect? Thank you as always!

Hey joe88 :)

The new post grid is not using isotope and therefore can’t animate the actual movement in the same way when changing filters. This choice was chosen because of significant performance improvements in both JS execution and loading from removing that library dependency. The previous masonry formatting required calculations to position each item, and additionally had to wait until the JS and all images were loaded to make those calculations - The post grid is pure modern CSS.

Thanks Phil for the explanation. I liked the previous animations, but I totally understand the design decision as this should certainly help with performance. Great work as always!

Hi there, is there anyway to create a switcher between monthly and yearly pricing tables? A bit like this link https://penji.co/pricing

Hey OliverBrownCreative,

To accomplish that would require used the “tabs” page builder element. Inside each tab a row could be added and each column within that row could be styled to function as a pricing section. For some examples of creating custom pricing columns, check out the Salient studio template library > pricing tab: https://ibb.co/dg2S3fq

Cheers

I was talking more about the toggle switch. Instead of using tabs, or if the stabs could be styled to be a toggle switch.

Hey OliverBrownCreative,

There is not built in functionality to have a toggle switch like that, but the same functionality could be achieved with tabs ( named monthly/yearly ). Custom CSS would be required to get that styling though.

Hello, how can I set different logo for the sticky menu? I mean when I am scrolling down I need to show darker logo, how can I set it? I don’t see any setting for sticky header logo on your theme.

thanks.

Hey rockdesignnet,

In regard to the contact slider – since there’s a 200px divider on the top, on smaller screen sizes the height of that plus the form itself will end up being larger than the screen height. You can enable the option “Provide Scrollbar” for the row overflow to allow the content to be accessed by scrolling when any becomes taller than the screen: https://ibb.co/stNStFX

Hello, it looks like the Scrollbar is not working. I changed it as you suggested but nothing happened.

Hey, edit the contact row and change the “Fullscreen row position” from “full height” to either top or middle: https://ibb.co/GV1Tztr

The full height option limits the height to 100%.

Hello! Is there any issue with theme when it works on PHP 7.0? Every block is available?

Hey orangereya!

Salient is compatible with PHP 7, if you’re having an issue please reach out via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Hi, I’m working on a client website. I’ve updated the theme to the latest version but ran into some issues in the header. There is a (sub)header which is actually for the mobile nav saying “no menu assigned”, however it already works on mobile.

Also there are some overlapping icons, search and the hamburger menu item, which shouldn’t be there.

Any ideas?

Hey Yatsuba,

I would suspect that’s occurring due to the use of a modified header.php file within the child theme. Please ensure that any files relating to the header are updated to match the parent (or removed from the child)

Hello,

How to add an About Me bio to blog sidebar?

Hey tinaaa071,

That would be accomplished through a text widget, which you can add your sidebar in Appearance > Widgets

Thank you.

Can I add social icon in this area? https://prnt.sc/ta9n2y

Hey tinaaa071,

There’s new social media widget by default, but you could use the custom HMTL widget and manually add icons. Or you could find a third party plugin which adds a social based widget.

Cheers

Salient needs to seriously consider changing header website search function dependencies.

its been years and years and this search function still depending on older jQuery liberaries.

Search text gets completly messed up when I disable jquery migrate script or update jquery libs.

And based on WordPress recent plan to update jquery libs on 5.6 and completely ditch jquery migrate on 5.7 you will have to adapt to it despite what i say in this comment. its just a heads up.

Thank you guys

Hey amr3li,

Thanks for mentioning the issue – it’ll be corrected in the next release :)

Any project to insert AJAX searches in the Skin Material theme?

Why does Ascend only have this?

THX!

Hey ofmarconi! I’ve noted your +1 for the idea on the wishlist – The original skin also currently has access to that feature.

Thx!!! Best Theme Everrrr!

Cheers ofmarconi :)

Hello, I am contacting you today because this is the first time I have encountered this problem with your theme. On the woocommerce shop page I have set up the fact that on mobile is displayed 2 products per column but currently I have only one product and an empty space on the right: https://maisondjulia.com/categorie-produit/robes/

Hey JeremieMAJ,

It looks like there’s another snippet in your child CSS which is setting a custom width for the columns

@media only screen and (min-width: 1500px) {
.woocommerce-page .full-width-content ul.products[data-product-style="minimal"] li.product.minimal {
    width: calc(20% - 46px);
}
}

If you remove that as well as the margin CSS, it should fit correctly.

I removed all the content in .css style from the child theme but I still have this empty space problem on the right side

Hey JeremieMAJ, I’m still seeing both of those rules active on your site: https://ibb.co/C19ZHjN Can you try deactivating your child to verify?

Hello again, i have a question please regarding the blog category page, i am using the blog masonry fullwidth / Auto masonry, and i would like to show only two posts / column per line instead of 3, is this possible ? Thank you

Also i would like to hide the title of the category page if that’s possible too, have a great day !

Hey Kazuhira,

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: 1600px) and (min-width: 1001px) {
body .full-width-content .post-area.auto_meta_overlaid_spaced .masonry-blog-item {
    width: 50%;
}
}

.category #page-header-wrap,
body.category #ajax-content-wrap .page-header-no-bg {
  display: none; 
}

Hello, Can i custom css or js about language switcher (wpml) move to header menu for mobile only.

Thank you

Hey padol7, I responded to your email earlier today :)

Hey, one question please: does the theme support embedding of iframe / html codes? Like: <iframe src=”link” width=”1300” height=”975” allowfullscreen=”allowfullscreen”></iframe>

Thank you!

Hey istint,

Yes, you can use iframe embeds within the content.

Cheers

Hey Nectar! Thanks for getting back to me so quickly on that last ticket. Greatly appreciated. I have a quick couple of questions concerning mobile responsiveness for this page -

https://novohealth.com/

At the bottom I have a testimonial slider that looks very big whenever there is a lot of text and creates a large vertical space when rotating. How can I condense this or make it look better when its inside another row? How can I make this section look more mobile friendly?

Hey Louis :)

1. The regular “carousel” page builder element > flickity script just got the option recently for “Adaptive Height”. You could create a testimonial slider by using that element + single testimonials in each column. Alternatively, you could change the testimonial slider to one of the other styles which support varying height slides (basic, minimal).

2. Are you trying to alter the fancy box elements under the text “NOVO Health Market” or the fancy boxes within the carousel under “Community Recommended Products”?

Underneath the NOVO Health market. Thanks for the 1st recommendation! I will work on that. Let me know your thoughts for the second one. Thank you Nectar!

Hey Louis,

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


#ajax-content-wrap .nectar-fancy-box[data-style=parallax_hover][data-overlay-opacity] .bg-img:after {
  opacity: 0;
}
#ajax-content-wrap .nectar-fancy-box[data-style=parallax_hover][data-overlay-opacity]:hover .bg-img:after {
  opacity: 0.6;
}

Cheers :)

I bought this template 1 Year ago.

but recently my WordPress interface have this notification.

Your theme (Salient) contains outdated copies of some WooCommerce template files. These files may need updating to ensure they are compatible with the current version of WooCommerce.

can give me a guide on how to update this?

fix =D download salient template file and upload via FTP, woo-commerce file only

Hey jiangning, I’m glad to hear you were able to update and correct the issue :)

Cheers

Is there a way to switch places if I have a button in my pull right menu and the user account icon? I’d prefer the icon to be on the left of the button.

Hey mikelaha,

Add the following CSS for that:

#top .buttons #nectar-user-account {
  order: 1;
}
#top .buttons li[class*=button_solid_color] {
  order: 2;
}
#top .buttons .slide-out-widget-area-toggle {
  order: 3;
}

If that doesn’t work in your setup, please share your actual URL so that I can see your settings.

Cheers

That worked, thanks!

Glad I could help, mikelaha :)

Hi, I’d like to have a second menu like on this page https://www.zetor.com/zetor-proxima ​that ​is sticky. The second menu is the one that has Basic Information, Specifications and Technical Parameters. This menu remains sticky from half way through the page when you scroll down. Kindly advise how i can achieve this.

Hey peakdale, There’s two sticky menu possibilities in Salient. One would be the page submenu: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-promo/page-submenu/ and the second would be the tabbed section with the style selected: “vertical sticky scrolling”. An example of the tabbed element can be seen in the docs on the left side: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/page-builder-row/#row-type

I love the theme – except for one major problem. Forms are invisible on the page. I tried gravity forms as well as Contact7 – and in both cases the form fields are invisible – only see the submit button. I changed setting to minimal form setting as well as inherit in the salient settings – no form fields displaying. I’ve never had this happen on any other theme. And I disabled the one 3rd party plugin I had – it made no difference. The only active plugins are the Salient plugins and the form plugin.

I figured out – it has to do with the theme color on the column options (light and dark) text color. With white background you have to have “dark” text color option chosen.

Hey apfotos, I’m glad to hear you’ve been enjoying the theme :)

If you’re still having any issues with the form styling, kindly share your URL in regards so that I can take a look.

Cheers

Nectar Slider / WPML conflict Is this a know problem? Once I activate WPML, the slider is not showing the image anymore, only the headline and the caption, all in front of the black bg. If you create a new slide, there are 2 buttons right on top of all the settings and options. The buttons are for Image background or vide background. If WPML is activated, they do not show up as supposed. There are no buttons, only the text, no blue background and you can not click them. If I deactivate WPML, the buttons appear normal and the slider is showing the chosen image. Hmmmm. that way, I can not use the Nectar slider, which is supposed to be a main feature, right? I have lates WP and latest Theme version. Any idea what to do?

OK. That would mean, I have to update all plugins manually to 4.3.16. I will do this as soon as I have time for it. I will report here.

I updated to latest version, still no buttons. How do you want me to continue?

Hey markimark, If you haven’t opened a ticket with WPML yet, please reach out via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar with temporary admin access and I’ll contact WPML in regards

When you have a bunch of woocommerce reviews and you enable the default pagination and set to say 10 reviews per page. The pager navigation doesn’t work, when you try to click to page 2 it just scrolls up and doesn’t actually go to page 2.

Please check pagination for woocommerce reviews.

Hey BlackWat3r,

The fix for that is already in the current beta. If you’d like a copy, please reach out via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Alternatively, you can also correct it for now if you disable the option “One Page Scroll Support (Animated Anchor Links)” in the Salient options panel > general settings > functionality tab

How can I remove the big bars on top of the checkout page for “already a user. login here” and “have a coupon. enter it here”? The bars are huge and span all the way across the page so it’s unnecessarily distracting during the checkout process. I just need simple clean text side by side links: Have an account? Login Here and Have a coupon? Enter it here. Thanks!

Hey ehong33234,

You can use the following CSS in regards:

.woocommerce-form-login-toggle .woocommerce-info,
.woocommerce-form-coupon-toggle .woocommerce-info {
  background: transparent!important;
  color: #000;
}
.woocommerce-form-coupon-toggle,
.woocommerce-form-login-toggle {
  display: inline-block;
}
.woocommerce .woocommerce-info a {
 color: #000!important;
}

Cheers

Thank you! Lastly, is there a way for me to underline the hyperlink for “Click here to login” and “Click here to enter your code”? Currently it doesn’t look like a hyperlink. Also, I would like to also remove the CLICK HERE verbiage to just Login Here and Enter Code if it’s an easy way to do that.

Hey ehong33234,

1. You can also in the following to underline the links:

.woocommerce .woocommerce-info a {
    text-decoration: underline;
} 

2. Altering the core WooCommerce strings would require translating them through the woocommerce text domain

Cheers
