This is a beautiful theme! I have been using it for many years! 1 request I have though is the ability to have accent colors not be locked to specific options. For example, if my accent colors are RED, BLUE, and BLACK… But the new page I am creating is a Purple theme, then for some options when building the page that relies on Accent colors as the color options… I will be limited to those set accent colors (RED, BLUE, BLACK). I would always like the ability to change color and not be locked into only the accent colors.

Some options do let you set a custom color instead of using accent colors, but it’s tricky sometimes because all the options are not like that all the time. For example, if you create a Table/pricing table… if I wanted to make a custom colors pricing table with each price option in my table a different color, then I would be limited to Salient’s set accent colors.

Other than that 1 thing, this theme is close to perfect. I think buttons, and anything that can have a custom color should not be locked to only the accents.

Great job on the Theme though, I love it!

Hey xavier_p, thanks a lot!

In general, we’ve been adding the “custom” color picker as a complimentary option along side the global color scheme for all new elements. However, it’s also on the to-do to ensure all previous elements get that functionality too going forward.

Kind regards

Hi! I just want to know if there is any need or advantage if buying WPBakery? If things become easier or whatever.. Still haven’t worked much with Salient..

Btw, I do need to buy one license more if I’m going to use Salient on one more of my own sites, right?

Thanks, Jimi

Hey Jimi! There’s no need to purchase WPBakery separately. The version included with Salient is recommend to use over the default version, as it includes an extended feature set.

You will need to purchase a new license for Salient is you plan on using it on another live domain. Standard licenses permit one end product per license: https://themeforest.net/licenses/standard

Cheers

Thanks! and Thanks for the super quick reply!

You’re welcome, jimpa :)

Hey Phil :) Again its me. On my site studio-south.design the Off Canvas Button seems to be a bit off. Means the font inside is more on the bottom. Mobile perfect, desktop not ;-) Can you help? Best

Hey rockz!

Adding the following snippet into the custom CSS box located in the Salient options panel > General Settings > CSS/Script related tab should correct that:

body #top ul .slide-out-widget-area-toggle a i.label {
    line-height: 1;
}
Cheers

Hi Nectar! What’s the CSS code to change the portfolio filter menu active area/hover to be the entire word instead of just the underline? Currently it’s very difficult to select a filter word from just the bottom area of the word. Thanks!

Hey hingedigital!

Are you trying to change the color or background color of the filter which is active/hovered in addition to keeping the underline? Could you kindly share your current page URL where you’re using the portfolio instance so that I can take a look at your current settings as well.

Thanks in advance

Hi Nectar,

Here’s our URL. https://hellohinge.com/work/

We are hoping to make the entire text for each filter be active/highlight, instead of just the under line area of each filter.

Thanks, Roland

Thanks for the clarification, Roland. Your header is div is overlapping the top of your filters and preventing mouse events from occurring. You can fix that by editing the row holding your post grid element and setting some top padding on the row. e.g. 50px: https://ibb.co/9tRqv0t

Kind regards

​Hey there, I’ve been using Salient for quite a while now, and a year ago, you guys helped me to achieve the following:

- Display ONLY first gallery image on Product page and Quick View.

This was achieved by hiding the product image using a CSS provided by you. Unfortunately, due to the last Salient update the Quick view is having some issues showing no pictures when reviewing any of my products. Could you please help me out to understand the problem?

I’ll paste the CSS code below:

body .images .flickity-slider > div:first-child,
.nectar-quick-view-box .flickity-page-dots,
.single-product .product-thumbs.flickity {
    display: none;
}

@media only screen and (max-width: 999px) {
   .single-product .product-slider .flickity-viewport {
       padding-bottom: 100%;
   }
}

@media only screen and (min-width: 999px) {
    .single-product .product[data-gallery-style="left_thumb_sticky"] div.images .product-slider .slider > div:first-child {
        display: none;
    }
}
.single-product .product[data-gallery-style="left_thumb_sticky"] div.images .product-slider {
    width: 100% !important;
    padding-left: 0;
}

body .images .flickity-slider {
    transform: none!important;
}

.nectar-quick-view-box .nectar-product-slider {
    width: calc(100% + 0px) !important;
}

My website is revunity.com – Thank you very much in advance

Hey AngellitoX,

You can keep your snippet how it is and add in one additional rule to allow that custom functionality to work with the latest Flickity version:

body .images .flickity-slider > div:nth-child(2) {
    transform: none!important;
}

Cheers

Worked like a charm, thank you very much for the incredibly fast response! You guys rock a lot.

Glad I could help, AngellitoX :)

Hello, how I can remove sidebar from only one post?https://coffeewithdamian.com/blog/drip-coffee-vs-french-press/

You can still opt to use the post ID class name (.postid-10297) to target individual posts. However, if you use the page builder CSS box instead you won’t need to since that CSS will only be loaded on the post which it’s entered on.

Kind regards

Got it thank you!

You’re welcome Fixedman :)

Hey Phil,

I’m still having these spacing issues on my site.

1) The edit page section doesn’t show anything below the header so I’m thinking it’s a header issue. The home page has a small black space at the top and the contact section has a huge one between the header and content. I can’t for the life of me figure out how to remove those gaps.

2) There are also a small tab above each window that says Home>>about Home>>Contact and I’m not sure how to turn that off completely.

3) And I also can’t find a way to make each shopping page black, there are 3 pages below the shopping button that I’d like with black backgrounds.

Kind regards,

-CS

https://mysteriousconcepts.com

Hey CS,

1. As I mentioned in my last comment, those black spaces are coming from a background color that you have set in the “Page header settings” metabox. Please edit the page header settings for both of those pages and ensure that nothing is set for the following fields: https://ibb.co/h9hnRBZ

2. The breadcrumbs are being added from your plugin “Yoast SEO”. You can disable them in the plugin settings: https://prnt.sc/sl0zqo

3. You can change the background color for shop pages in the Salient options panel > WooCommerce > General tab via the “Product Archive Page BG Color” field.

Please open a ticket on the support forum in regards when you have multiple questions in the future so that we can properly index and assign them to our support team.

Kind regards

Thanks man I really appreciate it!

You’re welcome, CS :)

Is it possible to edit or add custom templates to the salient studio? If so, is there a way to create a page and save it in a way that it is accessable in the salient studio. I know one can create a template but I like the way the salient studio has the thumbnails.

Hey michellejohnson51974,

You can add templates to that section by using the “vc_load_default_templates_action” action from your child theme. Here’s an example snippet you can copy/paste into your child functions.php which will add 2 custom templates: https://pastebin.com/BQV7GnXF

You can replace the [SHORTCODES_FOR_TEMPLATE_HERE] by going into the classic mode editor view and copying the shortcodes for your given page which you wish to make into a template.

Cheers

I have added the code into a snippet and I can see the page template in the Salient Studio. I am confused as to how to add the page content to the template and I am confused about the shortcode. Are you able to provide a simple example of a page, let’s say a page with just some text that says ‘hello, this is a page template’ how can I add this to the custom studio template?

Hey michellejohnson51974,

You can get your the shortcodes that will make up your template by clicking on the “classic mode” button in the page builder: https://ibb.co/ZTS0DXc

Ensure that you also copy from the “Text” tab within the classic mode editor.

Here’s a snippet with an example “hello world”: https://pastebin.com/K2QyRQj2

Kind regards

After updating to ver 15.0.4 the row settings don’t work. When you open row settings, the dialog box is blank. I tried deactivating all plugins to check if there is a plugin conflict, but it still dint work properly. Not sure what is causing this issue. I use the firefox browser.

Hey ArtyChristina, since there’s no known issue like that I would need to check out the setup further to assist. If you’ve also verified that you’re on the latest version of the page builder (6.9.1) and can confirm that a child theme modification is not causing it, please reach out via the contact form on my author page in regards.

Thanks in advance

Hi guys, I want to remove the header on the 404 page not found, is that possible?

Hey LuisVoronov ,

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

.error404 #header-outer {
  display: none;
}

Kind regards

Hello guys, thanks to te last upgrade there is a way to show the captions on the gallery, nice to have. But is there a way to set the font size please?

Hey sdoganati,

The captions will inherit from the body typography, and image titles from the h4 fields within the Salient options > typography tab.

If you’d like to specify custom properties, you can add the following snippet into the custom CSS box located in the Salient options panel > General Settings > CSS/Script related tab:

.wpb_gallery .nectar-flickity .title {
  font-size: 14px;
}

.wpb_gallery .nectar-flickity p {
  font-size: 10px;
}

Kind regards,

Hi ThemeNectar,

https://evermaven.agency

On the link above I have added some background self-hosted MP4/WEBM videos and for some reason all of them except the first video loop. Is there a reason why the other videos wouldn’t loop? Your help would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks.

Best, Alan

Hey Alan,

I checked that page in Chrome/Safari and can see all of the videos on that page looping. Can you please specify which browser/OS you’r seeing it not loop on?

Kind regards

Hi there,

quick question: on this page: https://nescius.nl/inspiratie/blogs/ the header image on mobile is only showing a part. Would it be possible to show the whole image?

Thanks in advance.

Hey Abbenhues,

Edit your divider element settings within that header row and specify a shorter height value for mobile devices. For example: https://ibb.co/VH533hs

Kind regards

Hi,

can’t change order of size attributes in shop filter area. It has to be ordered like in filter setting or so, but it doesn’t work.

How to order it? Thank you!

Hey footer,

Are you seeing a different order occur when changing to the default WordPress theme? If so, please open a ticket on the support forum in regards so that we can take a closer look into your site to assist.

Thanks

Hello Team,

I would like to disable this code https://pastebin.com/mEMh5sEv how can I do using child theme functions.php as I would like to remove ?add-to-cart=123 hyperlink from the product category and WooCommerce Products gadget.

\salient\nectar\helpers\woocommerce.php – line no 919, 969, 1026,1061 want to remove this so it won’t generate that code.

Hey princebhalani143,

If you’d prefer to do it via an action, it could also be done that way. However, the snippet would look different than your example: https://pastebin.com/r4z6k4Zy

Kind regards

You’re welcome, princebhalani143 :)

Is it possible to hide global section in one specific page?

Hey ozmarfraga,

You can handle that from your child theme by removing the global section action. Here’s an example snippet which removes global sections when viewing the front page: https://pastebin.com/gEXGYk4d

Kind regards,

I am using custom post type ui on my site and have managed to get the header options working for my posts however I can’t work out how to get the header section working for the category archive pages.

Hey grontech,

Archives on CPT do not have a header by default, as we leave it ups to CTP to determine the output. However, you can add in a page header with the title of the CTP via using the ”” in your child theme. Here’s an example snippet: https://pastebin.com/QSHbHkS5

You’ll just need to replace the
'press' === get_post_type()
With your own CPT.

Kind regards,

I have applied this however it doesn’t seem to be working.

Hey grontech, Are you using a recent release of Salient (v14+)? If so, please open a ticket on the support forum in regards so that we can take a closer look.

Thanks in advance

Hi! I was wondering if there was a way to add a Pinterest pin through the theme to all the images on a website. I know the social share feature can share per page but wasn’t sure about pinning an image.

Something like this: https://2stone.ca/portfolio_page/citizen/

If this isn’t a function within the theme, do you know of a plugin or something that would work? Thanks for your time.

Hey A_K!

There’s no built-in functionality to handle that. However, you could use a plugin such as https://wordpress.org/plugins/pinterest-pin-it-button-on-image-hover-and-post/

Kind regards

Thanks! I’ll look into that.

You’re welcome, A_K :)

Hello ThemeNectar, just wanted to report a bug in backend. It’s not possible to choose Steadysets as icon font for a TextWithIcon-Element. The list looks unsorted as well.

Here’s a screenshot of the backend list. https://prnt.sc/GXYuAfCc7QOE

Is it a known bug? And do you have an idea how to fix the issue? The url is https://spieren.de

Regards, Thomas

Hey Thomas,

I can’t replicate that locally: https://ibb.co/232b4k6 have you tried to disable third party plugins to see if any are causing the issue within your setup?

Kind regards

Hello!

About flip box, how can we add a link? I saw that there is no option in the flipbox itself, i tested with column link…

See : https://paste.pics/J0KU2

But after added the link, the box stopped to flip… any help are welcome ;-)

Thanks ;-)

Hello Phil,

In my scenario, I really need to be able to click the image. And unfortunately, the box stops working if I add a link in the column. But I thought it would work. Do you believe Phil that it would be possible to do a little piece of code to achieve this? For an old friend like me ;-)

OR maybe use something else (I searched among the options without finding), which would allow me to have the same effect: An image that turns around with a link. That’s all I need.

Cheer!

It’s OK. I find an alternative. But thanks anyway ;-) Have a nice one mister!

Hey barreoblique, I’m glad you were able to figure something out :)
