Hi,

I am using the option “Automatically Add Page Title to Page Header” in the theme customizer, but how can I hide this option for the homepage only?

Thank you

Hey, That meta box will be located on the bottom every edit page screen, underneath the page builder.

Got it, thank you!

You’re welcome :)

Hey there. Please answer these questions :

1. Want to do a lot with Sliders. Which slider should i choose Nector or the other one. Is there any tutorial to add layers etc.

2. Is there any Showcase or Built with Salient page where we can see what people have done with this amazing theme.

3. I want to integrate my add my react app on the website. Is there a better way than using iFrame.

4. When is the next big update coming. Or new Demo pages

:)

Hey rivija,

1.The the “simple slider” option within the Carousel page builder element is the latest and most flexible slider since you can build each slider using the page builder. You can import an example slider using that in the Salient studio: https://ibb.co/Jd4rw1Z

2. We don’t keep a list, but there are some fan sites that attempt to e.g. https://colorlib.com/wp/salient-theme-examples/

3. There’s no built in functionality to handle that. You would either need to use the iframe or handle it through a child theme

4. Within the next two weeks :) We’re in the final stages of the public beta.

hello – is there a way to make the mobile menu classic? just simply drop down menu? no fancy sideways moving mobile menu?

Hey impulsefive, yes you can achieve that by changing the “Off Canvas Menu Style” option in the Salient options panel > header navigation > off canvas menu tab to “Simple dropdown”.

Kind regards

Hi! Three quick questions:

1- How can I make the thumbnails of the portfolio projects to be videos or moving images? Example: https://www.willyrg.com/

2- Can I make a video clip play when the mouse hovers over the thumbnail? Example website: https://ligthelm.work/

3- How can I modify the size of the text or the font, which is displayed above the thumbnail of the portfolio? Example: https://www.willyrg.com/

Thank very much! Love!

Thanks,

You can alter the font sizing for that project style by using the “Heading 3” field in the Salient options panel > typography > general HTML elements tab.

Kind regards,

Thanks :)

You’re welcome, Aloga :)

Hi,

When using the nectar slider style image gallery sometimes a faint vertical line appears on the borders of the image. This is not on the original jpegs.

Is this a known issue and is there an easy way of fixing it?

Thanks

See below -

Thanks Rory,

You should be able to remove those by adding the following snippet into the custom CSS box located in the Salient options panel > General Settings > CSS/Script related tab:

.swiper-container, .swiper-slide {
   background-color: transparent!important;
}

Kind regards,

Thanks, that appears to have fixed it :)

Glad to hear, Rory :)

Hello is there a way to make project “Chinatown Redevelopment” wide? I changed in settings of the project but it is not helping. http://stevens146.sg-host.com/projects/ how can I adjust size of the project in portfolio grid?

Hey Fixedman, the post grid uses an “auto” masonry approach rather than allowing per-project sizing like the legacy portfolio element. To give a specific project a custom size you would need to give it a class name such as “custom-wide-size” within the project settings and then add the following snippet into the custom CSS box located in the Salient options panel > General Settings > CSS/Script related tab:

.custom-wide-size {
    grid-column-end: span 2;
}

Worked, thank you!

You’re welcome, Fixedman :)

I bought the theme and trying to submit a support ticket. But stuck at “Submit Ticket” button. Is the themenectar.ticksy.com not compatible with google chrome?

Hey buildmyecommerce,

Ticksy is compatible with all major browsers – are you still having issues submitting a ticket? I see that there’s a couple tickets recently added from your username on the forum.

Kind regards,

Portfolio custom slug isn’t working.

Hey djmalibiran,

Please open a ticket on the support forum in regards so that we can take a closer look at your setup to assist.

Hello, I have a Youtube background video that is no longer playing on mobile even though the Disable Video Backgrounds On Mobile Devices is not on. What am I missing? Has something changed in the new update? You can see it fine on desktop and the Youtube video is unlisted. I am not able to leave the site name on a forum if you need it, could I send it via your contact box? Thanks!

Hey katt101, YouTube videos were never able to automatically play on mobile, as mobile devices block that functionality. If you wish to have a video BG on mobile, you need to use the self hosted option (mp4/webm). Kindly see the docs here: https://themenectar.com/docs/salient/page-builder-row/#video-background

Thank you so much!

You’re very welcome, katt101 :)

Hi. I am trying to reduce the size of the font used in the Yoast breadcrumbs. It seems to be using the body text class at the moment. I have search extensively and have tried lots of different CSS snippets but nothing seems to work. I am adding the breadcrumbs using the shortcode [wpseo_breadcrumb]

This is an example of CSS that I have tried (plus a few more)

/* breadcrumbs */ .yoast-breadcrumbs span { font-size: 8px; }

breadcrumbs {

font-size: 14px; }

Any help / advice appreciated.

Thanks so much. This worked great. One other thing (sorry) am I able to set a different font size on mobile devices?

Its OK I worked it out

@media only screen and (max-width: 1000px) { .yoast-bread-crumbs { font-size: 8px; } }

Glad I could help, wints77 :)

The parallax background of a row with Image Gallery (Basic Slider Style) in it has a display problem – visible when viewing the site on a tablet/mobile. You can see also see it on desktop monitors when scrolling up and down.

Hey djmalibiran,

Thanks for mentioning. I’ve noted to investigate that further and include a fix in the upcoming release.

Kind regards,

Hello,

I can’t remember which update caused this but I have a problem on this site with the “wireframe” display of the typeface: https://mc-watersports.com/fr/

How can I correct this? I didn’t have “thread” inside before

Thanks in advance

Hey MAJMonaco,

This wasn’t caused by a change released in Salient, but rather Google starting to convert some fonts to “variable” weights. Currently, variable fonts create those kinds of overlaps when creating the outline effect. See: https://github.com/googlefonts/josefinsans/issues/16 Unfortunately there are no good workarounds at this time for that.

You can see which fonts are “variable” in their list in the top right https://fonts.google.com/

Thank you for the precision and the quick answer

You’re welcome, MAJMonaco :)

Cheers

Hi,

Can i add a custom query to the post grid?

Hey muntzallactive, yes there’s an option to select “custom” for the query in the post grid element: https://ibb.co/KzgnmWN

Are you trying to customize the query further than what’s available in the options?

Blog Categories

I found a bug with “blog”
https://pasteboard.co/8RnkTuv47oMV.jpg
Blog Categories: All
Posts Per Page: 3
It will still show 10 posts. There is a bug with categories, if “All” is selected it won’t show the number you want – always 10.
As a workaround, I selected all categories manually. Then it shows 3 posts. If I deselect all categories and select “All” – it will show 10.. somehow it doesn’t see posts per page when “All” is selected

Hey Lateralus578,

I can’t replicate that issue locally. Can you please reach out via the contact form on my author page in regards so that I can take a closer look?

Thanks in advance

Hello! I have a question, is it possible to have a lightbox gallery portfolio? i know there is an option to check the “lightbox only” option, but that only shows one image, i would like to show a whole project gallery, on lightbox. Is it possible? Thanks!

Hey paulinavargasin! :)

Unfortunately it’s not possible to have each project item trigger a separate gallery at this time. I’ve noted your +1 for that idea on the wishlist though.

Kind regards,

Hi there,

Pre-sales question – does Salient use WPBakery? I prefer it (right now) over Elementor, but just wanted to know what Page Builder Salient uses. I don’t see any page builder listed on your ThemeForest page.

Thank you.

Hey Woter_background_, Yes Salient uses a tailored version of WPBakery.

Kind regards,

Hi,

How can i completely hide these Salient and Global Sections -> https://imgur.com/a/On8Lw55

so other users don’t mess with the settings there. Is there a CSS to hide these from dashboard?

Thanks

Hey toolbox101, I would suggest using a plugin such as https://wordpress.org/plugins/admin-menu-editor/ to limit the admin UI based on specific roles/capabilities. Kind regards,

I dont want to use a plugin for several reasons. Can you please give a css that hides it? I can not find the right selector to target those sections so i can hide, or else id do it myself. :)

Hey toolbox101,

Add the following to the child theme functions.php file: https://pastebin.com/DbaxRGk4

You’ll need to modify the selector “toplevel_page_SalientChildTheme” if you’ve altered the child theme name.

Hi,

I’m using a recent posts element. Works great but one accessibility (WCAG) issue. The links generated are like: < a class=”entire-meta-link” href=”URL”>< /a>. Without a text in the anchor. Is there a way to get post title and use it within the anchor? Otherwise it’s not complient with the WCAG :)

Kind regards

Hey MM-Admin,

The recent version of the Salient Core plugin should include an aria-label on that link. Can you verify that you’re using v1.9.4?

Kind regards,
