Dear developers, I’ve been using the Salient theme for quite some time. I love this theme! Creating a website with Salient is very enjoyable! Please don’t spoil it and continue like this.

PS: You’re getting a lot of Elementor questions, I’m sure. I think this version should stay that way. I’m sure you’ll sell a lot more if you also release Elementor Edition. Think about it :)

Great days!

Hey ardacetin, I’m glad to hear that you’ve been enjoying using Salient! Thanks for the request as well :)

Cheers

it is a beautiful theme, it has many features and it is a detailed theme

Thanks for your kind words, yazilimteknisyeni :)

Hi, I´m using Polylang with Salient and WooCommerce. Can´t find out why things aren´t translated like “add to bag”, “cart”, “checkout” etc. Can you help me and guide me? maybe I´m missing something.

Thanks in advance,

Hernan B

Hey Hernan,

All strings which Salient uses in the shop which are not apart of the core “woocommerce” text domain will be translatable via the “salient” text domain. Have you

Hey Phil, just curious when the next major update will be released? :) Best

Hey rockzi, It’ll be out this week – stay tuned!

Cheers

Hi there, thanks for the beautiful theme, when are you planning to release the new version?

Hey frankapp :)

It’ll be out this week – stay tuned!

Hi, I am using some flip boxes but the text on the back is showing through on the front when the background alpha on the front is set to around 70% and below. Is there any way of avoiding this? Also, can the 3D effect on the flip be reduced or removed? Thanks.

Hey lightwavin,

You can alter those aspects by adding the following snippet into the custom CSS box located in the Salient options panel > General Settings > CSS/Script related tab:

.nectar-flip-box[data-v_text_align=center] .flip-box-back .inner, 
.nectar-flip-box[data-v_text_align=center] .flip-box-front .inner {
    -webkit-transform: translateY(-50%);
    transform: translateY(-50%) translateZ(10px);
    backface-visibility: hidden;
}

Kind regards,

Perfect. I have to applaud you on your customer service, it is outstanding. I will be sure to build my next site using this theme.

You’re very welcome, lightwavin. I’m glad I could help :)

How can I have a unique header just for certain page? Or in Salient, the same header is shared across the website?

Hey dzulfriday,

By default it’s shared across all of your pages. You could get unique theme options to apply for various sections of your site if you use a multisite install. However, if you only need change a a couple aspects of the header such as the logo or logo link location, you could handle that easily through a child theme by overriding the template file or function related to the section of the header bar you need to override/add conditional logic.

Kind regards,

hello, I already purchased this theme with my another account, but now, when I install this theme, I can not see the ‘architure’ demo importing. I need this demo. How can I get it ?

Hey Lillastar824,

You just need to ensure that you’re using the latest version of the Salient Demo Importer plugin to get access to the latest demos. That demo was added in v1.4 of the plugin. If you’re using an earlier version of the plugin and don’t see any updates available for it, you likely need to update Salient.

Kind regards,

HI,

I have a couple of requests please and wondered if you could assist?

- Firstly, on my site I have a top menu and the slide out widget menu. http://roryflynn-prototypes.co.uk/alpha/

If ‘Products and Services’ is clicked on the top menu, this is highlighted in blue on the side menu. However it also highlights the sub-menu items in blue on the side menu. Is there a way of removing the highlight on the sub menu with CSS?

Secondly, I have a toggle section with ‘Read More’ as the title. Is there a way of changing that to ‘Read Less’ when the toggle is expanded?

example page – http://roryflynn-prototypes.co.uk/alpha/products-and-services/portable-dewpoint-hygrometers/sadpmini2/

I have a child theme in place and confident with editing page templates if I know where to look.

Many Thanks,

Rory

Hey Rory,

1. You can add the following snippet into the custom CSS box located in the Salient options panel > General Settings > CSS/Script related tab:

#slide-out-widget-area.slide-out-from-right-hover .inner .off-canvas-menu-container li.current-menu-item li:not(.current-menu-item) a {
  color: inherit!important;
}

2. You can copy the toggle template file to your child theme for overrides by using the method described in the docs here. Once you’ve added a new tag with your text, you could use CSS to toggle it along with the state like so:

.toggle:not(.open) .custom-text {
  opacity: 1;
}

.toggle.open .toggle-heading {
 opacity: 0;
}

Kind regards,

Thanks for your assistance!

You’re welcome, Rory1984 :)

Hi Theme Nectar,

If you could help me out on the two issues below I would greatly appreciate it.

Each of the pages on my website have a Nectar Slider that I need to be Full Screen and Full width but for some reason there is a white gap under the Nectar Slider. Can you shed some light as to how I can remove the gap so the images are 100% Full Screen.

Live link: https://neileverosborne.com/

Another issue I am faced with is the Portfolio Next and Previous buttons are backwards, meaning the Next button takes you to the Previous and the Previous takes you to the Next portfolio. Any idea why this would be happening and how to fix it?

Live link: https://neileverosborne.com/photojournalism/editorial/smithsonian-offshore-wind-america

Thanks again for the amazing support and theme. Still the best one out there.

Best, Alan

Hey Alan,

The portfolio orders the next project as the next “oldest” project – there’s no built-in theme option to alter that. However, I’ve noted to include in the upcoming release. If you’d like to get early access, please reach out via the contact form on my author page in regards.

Hi ThemeNectar, I am still experiencing the same issue on the individual Portfolio pages as mentioned above with the Next & Previous buttons being reverse/backward. Do you know if this issues has been addressed or not?

I find this really odd that the first Portfolio item has a “Previous” button when infact it should have a “Next” button.

Can you please let me know when this will be fixed or how I can fix it on my end? Many thanks.

Best, Alan

Hey Alan, the option to reverse the portfolio pagination was indeed added in. Have you selected it within the theme options https://ibb.co/BnSJXvR ? If so, please open a ticket on the support forum in regards so that we can take a closer look into your setup.

Kind regards

Hi, I love that you have a new approch in all your elments. Also in the image gallery. But for my client I need a ‘classic’ masonry image gallery with lightbox and with title + captions under the image and inside the lightbox. Is this possible? Thank you

Hey waldemarker :)

The closest you can get to that will be to use the “image grid” style for the Image Gallery element with the following settings enabled:

Masonry Style: On
Display Title/Caption: On
Gallery Style: Meta below thumb w/ links on hover

With those settings, the “title” and “caption” of your images will display under each image within the grid, and the “description” field will be shown in the lightbox once an image is clicked.

Kind regards,

Hi, sorry I did not understand that choosing image grid style enables new settings on bottom. Fine to see so much custom settings. It workes fine for the gallery. The lightbox has .fancybox-caption and .fancybox-caption__body, but there is no content there. And if I may ask a 2nd favor: how to remove ‘view larger’ and the color overlay. Just make the whole image clickable without effects, overlays or animations. thank you

Hey waldemarke,

1. It will only display the text added to the “Description” field of an image: https://ibb.co/G54N53P If you’ve added that in, please share your page URL so that I can take a look to assist.

2. Add the following snippet into the custom CSS box located in the Salient options panel > General Settings > CSS/Script related tab:

.portfolio-items .work-info-bg {
  display: none;
}
.portfolio-items .col .work-info .vert-center {
  position: static;
  transform: none;
  opacity: 0;
}
.portfolio-items .col.span_3 .work-item .work-info a {
  position: absolute;
  left: 0;
  top: 0;
  height: 100%;
  width: 100%;
}

In the header, what would be the best way to add an additional logo (with its own unique URL) to sit alongside the themes existing logo?

Hey kford,

You could hook to the “nectar_hook_before_logo” from your child theme functions.php to output custom HTML next to the logo in the top header bar. Here’s an example:

https://pastebin.com/GmnAkU7w

CSS would then be needed to style/position the new logo as desired.

Kind regards,

Hello How can I translate “Next Post”, “Previous Post” “No comment” for the Blog section. Thank you for your help.

Hey ASG31, those strings are contained in the “salient” text domain and can be translated using your desired translation plugin. If you only need to translate a few strings, I would recommend using Say What https://themenectar.com/docs/salient/translations/

Kind regards,

Hi guys,

I am looking to make my secondary header transparent like my primary header. I found an answer you gave to someone else with the following code:

body #header-secondary-outer { background-color: transparent!important; } html body.material #header-outer[data-header-resize=”0”]:not([data-format=”left-header”]):not(.scrolled-down) { top: 0!important; }

The only downside is that it doesn’t respond to dark/light configurations – something I am looking to have.

Thanks a lot, this is an amazing theme!

Hey deonteramos :)

You can add the following CSS to your existing snippet to get that functionality:

.transparent #header-secondary-outer nav > ul > li > a, 
.transparent #header-secondary-outer .nectar-center-text {
   color: #fff!important;
}

.dark-slide #header-secondary-outer nav > ul > li > a, 
.dark-slide #header-secondary-outer .nectar-center-text {
   color: #000!important;
}

Cheers!

Thanks a lot! One thing – the social media icons stay in light mode when the dark header is enabled

Hey deonteramos,

To include those, you can alter the previously provided snippet to the following:

.transparent #header-secondary-outer nav > ul > li > a, 
.transparent #header-secondary-outer .nectar-center-text,
.transparent #header-secondary-outer #social li a i {
   color: #fff!important;
}

.dark-slide #header-secondary-outer nav > ul > li > a, 
.dark-slide #header-secondary-outer .nectar-center-text,
.dark-slide #header-secondary-outer #social li a i {
   color: #000!important;
}

Cheers

Hi question.
How do I change color of the text on one slide? I use Nectar slider.
Here is my site: https://atlanthealthnyc.com/
On Slide #3 I want to change color to “white”

In the original setting I have this code for all slides, because when choosing “dark” for “slide font color” on slides I wanted, they were black.

body .swiper-slide .content h2, body .swiper-slide .content p {
color: #694d6f !important;
}

Thank you.

Hey atlantchiropractic,

You can alter that slide by adding the following snippet into the custom CSS box located in the Salient options panel > General Settings > CSS/Script related tab:

.home .swiper-wrapper .swiper-slide:nth-child(4) .content * {
    color: #fff !important;
}

Kind regards,

That worked.
Thank you very much!!!
Perhaps something to add into a future theme update for Nectar slider options instead of black and white.

Glad I could help, atlantchiropractic :)

I have a blog about National University Notice Portal. Right now i’m using a free theme. Can i use this Salient theme on my https://nubd24.com/ website?

Hey fmgmynul,

You can switch to Salient, but if you’re utilizing any of your existing theme features to generate your content, that will need to be converted to Salient elements.

Kind regards,

Hello, how do you remove the header cart icon completely? Thank you

Hey gabriel1990, You can disable that in the Salient options panel > WooCommerce tab by toggling the option titled “Enable WooCommerce Cart In Nav”.

Kind regards,

Hi, is it possible to modify the nav portfolio in individual projects?

Hey davideerba,

Could you kindly let me know what you’re trying to alter about it specifically? e.g. the styling, the functionality of which projects are linked etc. If you’re trying to modify the styling, please also share your URL so that I can take a look at your current settings to better assist.

Thanks in advance

Is there a way to have a message that appears everywhere in my online store (even on product pages) where I can update in one place and it updates across all pages? Is there some type of global component or anything? I’m trying to create a message that clearly says “no refunds” etc….but of course I don’t want that all on my blog pages and other parts of the website: https://jamescarveronline.com/shop/

Hey JayCarver,

You can create a global section and assign it to one of the theme areas in the Salient options panel. To then alter it to not display on any page that isn’t related to the shop, you could use add the following snippet into your child theme functions.php file: https://pastebin.com/cB7au0W0

Kind regards,

Thanks it works—but is that going to make it so all global sections I create going forward will now only be visible on shop pages?

Hey JayCarver, it will only alter the display of global sections which are assigned via the theme options panel to theme areas. Any global sections added through the page builder will still display normally.

Kind regards,

thanks for making Wordpress easy to use! only you guys!

That’s our goal, alvartabe! Thanks for dropping by to share some love :)
