Hello! After we updated Salient Core and the theme plugins to the most recent versions, we are noticing that when a user tries visiting an invalid page (which should throw a 404 Page Not Found error), our website is showing a blank page with a message that says, “There has been a critical error on your website.”
This issue resolves itself when we deactivate Salient and activate Twenty Seventeen. We’ve checked with our web host and there are no known errors being reported in the log.
Has anyone else reported this issue?
Hey kbeckert!
Can you please try to disable third party plugins to verify whether conflict is occurring between a specific one you have active in the setup?
hi, can I replace the “user” icon at the top of this demo page: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-ecommerce-ultimate/ with the “envelop” icon shown here: https://fontawesome.com/icons/envelope?style=solid, and how can I do this? Thanks!
Hey ekordakis!
Add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
span.icon-salient-m-user:before {
content: "\f0e0";
font-family: 'FontAwesome';
}
Cheers
Perfect, worked like a charm. Thanks so much.
Can I also bring this envelop icon to display to the left of the search icon (instead of displaying to the right of it)?
Also, I’m noticing that the top/bottom alignment seems a bit off (possibly one of the 2 icons is slightly taller?). Can I adjust one of the two icons a pixel or two up or down?
Thanks!
Hey ekordakis,
Can you please share your URL in regards so that I can take a look at your settings to assist?
Thanks 
The website is under development and it’s behind a coming soon page. How can I send you the login info to login and take a look?
Hey ekordakis, you can share it privately via the contact form on my author page: https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar
Thanks,
Can you give us an idea when v13 will be ready?
Hey mrittman,
There’s no hard date, but +/- 1 month’s time.
Cheers
Salient 12.1.3 is having issues with the latest wordpress 5.5.3. Pagebuilder and customize among other things are not functioning.
Hey jstiles1,
There are no known compatibility issues with the latest Salient and WP versions. Please verify that no third party plugins you have active are causing the issue you’re experiencing by temporarily deactivating them. If you’ve already done that, Please reach out via the contact form on my author page with a temporary admin account so that I can assist further: https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar
Thanks,
Thank you for the reply. I thought it was Salient because when I deactivated one of the Salient plug-ins it fixed some things, but after further inspection after your comment I uncovered the culprit was actually the plug-in WordPress SEO by Yoast CSV Importer/Exporter (in case anyone else experiences this).
Thanks Jon
I’m glad you were able to track down the culpri,t Jon. Thanks for letting me know
Will you update the changelog to the latest version?
Hey Jony_Bravo, the changelog already reflects the current live release (12.1.3), what version are you seeing on your end?
On the team bio module for mobile — when tapped, the module comes in fullscreen and covers the mobile navigation and a close X button appears. Demo here: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-corporate-3/
I’m trying to do this, using a transparent navigation, but on mobile the module opens fullscreen BEHIND the logo and hamburger menu. This puts the close X button behind the logo.
Any idea why the module is not forcing a fullscreen overlay?
Thank you!
Hey A_K,
could you share your URL in regards so that I can take a look to assist?
Thanks
If you scroll down to near the bottom, to the “Team” section, you’ll see the bio module issue.
Thank you!
If you check this page, the navigation is also doing something odd. If you open the off-canvas menu and click on a nav link, it forces a nontransparent nav with the mobile logo. On mobile, it forces a white menu bar (should be transparent). Any ideas?
Sorry, password updated to: komo2020
Thanks A_K
1. Add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
body .nectar_team_member_overlay {
z-index: 10000;
}
2. That issue has been corrected in the current beta release. If you’d like immediate access prior to the next version, please reach out via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar
Thanks so much, that fixed it! Message sent for the beta release.
Good day,
Is it possible to have any of the carousels on http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-promo/image-carousel/ scroll on mouse scroll (on desktop). Currently is is either arrows or click and drag, is it possible on mouse scroll down and up to move the carousel?
Hey aglet,
Unfortunately there’s no built-in option for that functionality. It would require some custom JavaScript as of now
good job!
Hey paulgoethe, thanks a lot!
Hi Themenectar! Is it possible to create filters for content that isn’t portfolio? For example, if I want to list a series of publications (as text), and then make it possible to filter these items by date, topic.. Is this possible? Thank u!
Hey anagcan,
Unfortunately not yet. However, the next release will be adding a “custom” query option in for the post grid element. This will allow you to define custom data sources in combination with custom post types
Cheers
Re: Fancy Unordered List
We would like to add custom styling to the Fancy Unordered List using Custom CSS.
1) Such that First Order Bullets (e.g. 1, 2, 3) use the Standard Dot.
fancy-ul icon_type=”standard_dot”
2) And Second Order Bullets, or Nested Bullets (e.g. a, b) use a Font Icon.
fancy-ul icon_type=”font_icon” icon=”icon-ok”
For additional clarification see: https://imgur.com/fE5dy7W
Thank you!

Hey guys. Just curious when the next update is coming. Keen to have the ‘Houzz’ logo updated in social.
Hey Coastdesign,
There’s no official hard date yet, but it’s getting close
If you’d like access to the beta with that already included, shoot me an email in regards
Cheers
No worries. Happy to wait!
Can you send me updated beta version? I sent you a message, thanks!
Hey BlackWat3r, I’ll shoot a copy at the end of the week

Hi,
I have a problem i’d appreciate if you could help because the Salient Builder did not have these options.
So I have a main raw with a background image. Here is the link http://xm0.00f.myftpupload.com/test3/
I also have an inner raw which has a white text in it, however, I would like to have a full-width divider shape inside the inner raw. This option was missing for inner raws, it is only available for the parent raw.
The reason that I want to give the inner shape a full-width shape diver is to have this https://imgur.com/a/gyUZtl5 transparent gray effect behind the text, and behind it is the background image attached to the main image.
Can you please help?
I have even tried to do it using a gray background image, you can see it here http://xm0.00f.myftpupload.com/test/ and the issue this time is that the inner raw does not have an option to make “Full Width Background” type.
I’d prefer the divider method, but if it is currently impossible, then the 2nd option could word if you could help.
Also, can you please add these inner raw limitations to the wish list for the next update? Please!!!
Thanks
Hey toolbox101,
If you do not wish to change the parent row to be of the “Full width content” type, you’ll need to give your inner row a class name so that it can be targeted with CSS. For example, with the class name added to the inner row of “full-width-inner-row”, you can use the following CSS:
body .wpb_row .wpb_row.full-width-inner-row .row-bg-wrap {
margin-left: -50vw;
left: 50%;
width: 100vw;
background-image: url('http://cprintablescomingsoon.com/bernel/2020/11/trans-bg.png');
background-position: center;
background-size: cover;
}
This code was good thank you, however, here is what i did http://xm0.00f.myftpupload.com/test/
however, the problem is that now I want to build these icons with text – > https://imgur.com/a/gyUZtl5however, the I am running into limitation issues of the inner raw again. the builder won’t let me add another raw to the inner raw which contains the text “What we do every day” I need to add a raw there and divide them into 4 Columbus so I can build that content.
Can you please help me with this?
The reason I want to add the 3rd raw inside the inner raw so both raws can have that background transparent gray you just helped with the css.
Hey toolbox101,
There’s no quick way to add an additional row element inside of a inner row. You would need to paste HTML code for the row/column setup into a raw HTML page builder block within the inner row.
Thanks for getting back, I am sorry I did not understand your instructions.
Do you mean I need to put inside the inner element? If I put the div, then I assume I would need a custom code the CSS to create those 4 columns and make sure the content inside the columns aline properly? Is that correct?
Is there a different method to achieving this? https://imgur.com/a/gyUZtl5
What if I put the arrow top gray effect with a shape divider on the top inner raw and create a 2nd inner raw blow the first inner raw and give it a straight line shape divider? will that work?
If yes, how would I add a shape divider to inner raw? They seem to be available for parent raw only? Could you please help with CSS?
Hey toolbox101,
You could create the row with columns/content as desired in the page builder, and then switch into the classic editor to copy the shortcodes. Grab the shortcode “vc_row_inner” and everything inside it. That shortcode setup can then be pasted into a raw HTML page builder element like so: https://ibb.co/SvFWq4y
The font is very large, so the page loads slowly. What can I do about it?
https://ibb.co/bNs507LHey buchstabenm,
Without seeing your actual URL it would be hard to give advice. Cab you please share your website?
ramble.ch
Thanks buchstabenm, If you’re referring to “iconsmind”, and you do not wish to remove the icons from that family in your three fancy boxes, you can unzip the icons.zip within salient/css/fonts/svg-iconsmind. Doing so will allow each of those icons to be loaded individually via SVGs instead of using the default icon font family
Please help ! I’m completely stuck
Thanks end Keep up the good work Ron
Hey Ron!
Ensure that the option “Use Transparent Header When Applicable” is enabled in the Salient options panel > header navigation > transparent header effect tab, and then on the page itself, enable the option “Force Transparency On Navigation” https://ibb.co/jZWsGfz:
Cheers
Thanks a lot for your help ! Keep up the great work Ron
Hey Ron!
The breadcrumbs are likely coming from a plugin you have active. If you can share your actual page URL, I’d be glad to let you know which one is adding that.
Also, ensure that you’ve supplied a logo in the Salient options panel > header navigation > transparent effect tab in the “Header Starting Logo Upload” field as well. The logo used during the transparent state is separate from the default logo.
It might come from Yoast. As you can see the breadcrumbs is still here !
Thanks a lot ! Cheers Ron
Hey Ron,
Yes the breadcrumbs are from Yoast and can either be removed by turning them off in the settings:.
Thanks a lot for your great help Cheers
You’re welcome youandmefrance
Hi, What is the best way to insert panorama in Salient? Thanks!
Hey vik_!
Since there’s no built-in functionality for that, it would depend on what service or plugin you’d prefer to use to insert it. YouTube has the option to embed 360 videos, which you could add directly into a raw HTML page builder block: https://pastebin.com/Km34yb2K
I’m your happiest costumer but I’m having a problem:
Carousel script FLICKITY with “Fixed Text Content Fullwidth” Style makes carousel items dissapear as the rotate into view.
Here’s the problem in action: https://imgur.com/a/jh3zguM
Can you help? Thanks!
Hey mardoqueo!
Since the flickity carousel is using the “wrap” option, you will need to provide an additional item within the carousel so that can function properly and occur out of the view.
Cheers
That solved it. Thanks! <3
You’re welcome mardoqueo

Hi. You gave me some CSS about a month ago that would help align buttons to the bottom of a column. I tried to tweak it for another project but couldn’t quite get the elements right. Can you help again with this under the “what we do best” section? Thanks! https://equiluxe2020.wpengine.com/
Hey caspixel!
Give the parent row which is holding the columns a class name such as “equal-column-buttons” and then add in the following CSS:
.equal-column-buttons .vc_column-inner .wpb_wrapper {
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;
align-items: baseline;
height: 100%;
}
.equal-column-buttons .vc_column-inner .wpb_wrapper .btnsx-btn {
margin-top: auto!important;
}
Ah, great! Thanks so much.
You’re welcome caspixel
Hi, is there any bugs with WPML and Salient? When creating a product category and applying an image to the header of the category, the styling is diferent in my english page compare to my french page. Thanks!
Hey mgmarceau, Can you please share the product category URL so that I can take a look at what’s occurring?
Thanks in advance
Absolutely, the french version https://bit.ly/38wKOVY and the english version https://bit.ly/3khAvHq. Thanks again
It might be something to do with an AJAX setting? Reading the CSS code, this might be it. I’ve tried redoing my category images and i’m getting different image size and format for both the english and french categories.
Thanks mgmarceau,
I can’t seem to replicate this locally. If you can open a ticket I’d be glad to take a closer look at the backend. But for now, you can also just add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab:
https://pastebin.com/1KSVBrvzHi, I went to open a ticket but it’s saying my support is lapse. Darn! I’ll try the fix and will let you know. Thanks!
That works! I had to add this in the CSS code because something was overriding the color of the font:
#page-header-bg h1 {
color: #fff!important;
}
Many thanks!
