Quick question, does the new Animated gradient for the backgrounds slow down a website on both desktop and mobile?

Thanks

Hey toolbox101,

The amount of additional JS that gets added when that effect is active is only 8kb. The animation also pauses to prevent excess resource usage when it’s scrolled out of view.

Kind regards

Thanks, and the JS is added only to that page where its being used. Or site-wide?

It’s loaded only on pages which make use of an animated gradient.

Kind regards

Can you please add skip lazy loading to all fancy box elements?

Thanks

Sorry, also the image gallery – image grid style does not have skip lazy load.

Hey toolbox101,

It’s been noted for the next minor release :)

Kind regards

Is it possible to remove the bundled product details in the mini cart? – https://ibb.co/jfZjj8Z

Thank you

We’re using the below to remove the bundled product details on the cart page. It works on desktop but not on mobile. Is there something else that would work for both or something to add specifically for mobile?

.cart_item.bundled_table_item{ display: none; }

Hey MarcGarner, You’ll need to switch your rule to be a bit more specific in order to take priority over the mobile styles:

#ajax-content-wrap .cart_item.bundled_table_item {
    display: none;
}

Hi, I’m having an issue with the alignment of the navigation menu in the footer area. The DNA menu is off. Any tips to fix it would be appreciated. Thanks!

Thanks Mindthemix :)

That’s an issue specifically with the “original” theme skin + 1 column footer layout. You can add the following snippet into the custom CSS box located in the Salient options panel > General Settings > CSS/Script related tab to correct it prior to the next release:

Kind regards

You’re welcome :)

Thanks so much for providing the code! that did the trick.

You’re welcome, Mindthemix :)

Is “Portfolio” section in your theme is based on Portfolio tab Elementor pro?

Hey igormichaliklipka, Salient does not use Elementor but instead a customized version of WPBakery page builder. The Portfolio post type offered in Salient is also unrelated to Elementor.

Kind regards

Hi guys, quick one – how do I change the header social icons to have round backgrounds? Example the Facebook one has this CSS (just the F):

body .fa.fa-facebook:before { content: ”\e60d”; }

Changing it to this unicode: f09a (https://fontawesome.com/icons/facebook?s=&f=brands) doesn’t work (the F disappears)?

Please help, Thanks!

Hey anton123 :)

Salient does not include that version of FA which has the circle option – you would need to import that manually in order to make use of those variants

Kind regards

Hi guys, you’ve indeed developed a gorgeous theme, I just wanna ask is the theme compatible with multilingual plugin ‘Translatepress’?

Hey innovextechnologies, thanks a lot :)

We recommend WPML but that plugin will also work.

Kind regards

Hey, is this section replicable ? https://imgur.com/a/uiQ9m2x thanks

Hey nvr21,

Yes, that section is using the post grid page builder element. The secondary images of the mobile devices are added from the field “Secondary Overlaid Image” inside of the project configuration metabox when editing a portfolio item.

Here’s a the setup for that section which you can paste into your classic mode editor and then switch back into the page builder: https://pastebin.com/y8GvgyuT

There are a lot of theme issues in dimension from 660 to 691 pixels in width. Most font sizes and column gaps are inheriting settings randomly from ipad and phone. Needed to rewrite most of them. Demand fixing.

Hey raffess,

Can you provide some specific examples including a page URL so that we can see what elements/settings you’re using in order to troubleshoot?

Please reach out via the contact form on my author page in regards with further information – If you are observing a similar issue to what you’re referring to on any of the live demos, kindly specify which.

Kind regards

Hi, woocommerce catalog page with all products overview is showing box different sizes. Too many products to change pics manually. Customizer catalog images are set to 300/1:1. The dirty bastards are still showing in different sizes. Is there a quick fix for this? Changing the thumbnail with to a lower size isnt doing anything.

Hey Mikel2020, you can reach out via the contact form on my author page in regards.

hi, I used the contact form with all the details but didnt received a reply yet?

Hey Mikel2020,

Sorry for the Holiday delay! We just got back to you in regards.

Cheers

hello guys and congrats on the theme. We have bought more licenses because we are very happy with it.

We have a problem with the menu item descriptions. We have included them in each menu item but they are not displayed on the site. Could you give us a solution to this problem? Is it a theme setting?

This is the site url: https://nicolap33.sg-host.com/

Hey plasmedia, I’m happy to hear that you’ve been enjoying Salient!

Glad you found the solution you were looking for :)

Cheers

I’m sorry but i can’t see description of menu item in home page. I don’t know why. there is no css hiding the descriptions. Help me. Please on the other pages descriptions are visible

Hey plasmedia,

Since it’s the same query to grab the description text regardless of what page you’re on, I would suspect something on your landing page is altering/preventing that from happening.

Can you please open a ticket on the support forum in regards so that we can take a look at the backend?

Thanks in advance

Good day, unfortunately not all Google Fonts seem to load in the Typography settings? https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Figtree does’t appear?

Hey aglet,

Figtree was added to the library after we updated the font list within Salient – it’ll be available in the next release :)

Kind regards

Can you add TikTok icon to the collection of icons? Tried to replace it with image – it’s hard to fix CSS – resizing the image to match the normal icon size after each breakpoint.

and image also occupies 100% width so on mobile it looks crappy, like so – https://ibb.co/jwFLYCn

Hey Lateralus578,

It’s already an item on our to-do list for the next minor release.

Kind regards

Hello team,

It it possible to size the header and footer max width of 1800px or full width, but the body area with max width of 1400px?

Thank you.

Hey carbotecnia,

You can leave the theme option at 1800 and the add the following snippet into the custom CSS box located in the Salient options panel > General Settings > CSS/Script related tab:


body .main-content.container {
  max-width: 1600px;
}

Kind regards,

Great!! Thank you

You’re welcome, carbotecnia :)

Hi there,
Is there a way to make the TypeKit/ custom fonts not reload on every page refresh?

Hey Romanesco,

What method are you using to load in fonts form Typekit? Could you share your page URL in regards so that I can take a look?

Thanks in advance

What version is Salient on now?

Hey reconrad,

The current version of Salient is 15.0.7.

Kind regards

how do I use the latest icons from font awesome. I want to use some from V5 and some in V6, but seems your theme is still using an old version? can I manually add v6 via functions.php somehow, or will that break the theme?

Hey monstrous,

You can enable v5 of FontAwesome by adding the following snippet to your child theme functions.php file:

https://pastebin.com/PAR152xL

We don’t have a version of that for FA6, so integrating that would require some custom development at this time.

Kind regards

Hello, I have a desktop menu: link 1/2 and a off canvas menu: link 3/4/5/6. Why on mobile off canvas is showing link 1 & 2 with space between links 3 till 6? How can I disable link 1/2.

Hey Mikel2020,

If you wish to remove the menu items from your main navigation bar on mobile, you could 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 .off-canvas-menu-container.mobile-only {
   display: none;
}

Kind regards

You’re welcome, Mikel2020 :)

Hi team, in which .php file can I add my custom posts to be able to get post page settings (header, main bg image…)

Hey zaktomi,

The following documentation provides the information you’re looking for: https://themenectar.com/docs/salient/metabox-cpt/

Hi, on the post grid element, is it possible to show only posts that belong to multiple categories? Fr ex: if I only wanna show restaurants in a specific city that are cheap.. How can I achieve this?

Hey kayota,

You can select your desired categories for the post grid element within the element settings, however, there is no option to make the joining of those categories an “and” in the query. Selected categories will always be an “or” i.e. if the post belongs to any of the selected categories.

Kind regards

Can I change the query code for the element somewhere from “or” to “and”?

Hey kayota,

You can override the query that the post grid uses via your child theme functions.php file by using the filter “nectar_post_grid_query”. https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/classes/wp_query/#category-parameters

Kind regards
