Hi guys! I wanted to verify what PHP versions are supported and/or recommended. According to your support / ticket page 8.0 should be supported, however I have not found any relevant info in documentation or presale page.
Wordpress 6.1 adds compatibility up to the 8.2 version.
Thanks in advance!
Hey martinlatal_,
Salient is currently only tested up to PHP 8.1, but we will be adding support for 8.2 in the near future! WP 6.1 has only added beta support for PHP 8.2 rather than full support so you still may run into warnings from the core when switching to 8.2
Kind regards
What Im doing it wrong, im using “single image” and then section Image size “Custom”, then Im writing for example 90px, but it doesnt work to shrink the image to the size I prefer. What Im doing it wrong? https://ibb.co/Px2851K
Hey Justinasmi,
That field is intended to receive a registered WordPress image name e.g. “small”, “medium” etc. If you wish to provide a custom px size, you can use the “Custom max width” option lower down in the image settings: https://ibb.co/82FcbcC
Please use the support forum in the future when posting multiple questions: https://themenectar.ticksy.com/
Thanks in advance
Works like a charm! Felling dumb right now that didnt thinked about max-width parameter, doh
Thanks
You’re welcome, Justinasmi 
Hello, is it possible to change SEARCH icon to for example lottie element or other icon I’ve made myself or at least to Font Awesome 6.00 one of the icons?
Hey Justinasmi,
You could swap the search icon for a custom one by adding the following snippet into the custom CSS box located in the Salient options panel > General Settings > CSS/Script related tab:
#header-outer .icon-salient-search:before {
visibility: hidden;
}
#header-outer .icon-salient-search {
background-image: url(YOUR-ICON.png);
background-size: cover;
background-position: center;
}
If you wanted to instead use a Lottie element, you would need to modify the function (nectar_header_button_items) which outputs the markup for that button via your child theme. The file which contains that function is wp-content/themes/salient/nectar/helpers/header.php
Kind regards
Thanks, will work on your suggestions. However, would be nice to have css for search to show the original size of the icon i chosed, because right now the new icon looks a bit blury. However, will see maybe will hande myself
Hey Justinasmi,
You could alter the snippet to be:
#header-outer .icon-salient-search:before {
visibility: hidden;
}
#header-outer .icon-salient-search {
background-image: url(YOUR-ICON.png);
background-size: 20px 20px;
background-position: center;
}
Hi support! Quick one: I found this thread that has a script for opening blog links in a new tab.: https://themenectar.ticksy.com/ticket/1214615/
I’m using the classic layout style of the masonry blog (no sidebar) (div class is: post-content classic)
I tried to make your code work by adjusting to:
<script type=’text/javascript’> jQuery( document ).ready(function() { jQuery(’#post-area.masonry article.post.link a’).attr(‘target’,”_blank”); }); </script>
or
<script type=’text/javascript’> jQuery( document ).ready(function() { jQuery(’#post-area.masonry.classic article.post.link a’).attr(‘target’,”_blank”); }); </script>
But the links still open in the same window? Any ideas?
Thanks!
found a working script:
<script type=’text/javascript’> jQuery( document ).ready(function() { jQuery(’.post-header a’).attr(‘target’,”_blank”); }); </script>
Hey anton123, I’m glad you were able to find what you were looking for 
Kind regards
Thanks guys, awesome theme!
In fact, ran into a slight problem: I went with the Postgrid (with filters) instead of the the masonry blog.
This script works for the visible posts under the Postgrid:
<script type=’text/javascript’> jQuery( document ).ready(function() { jQuery(’.nectar-post-grid-link’).attr(‘target’,”_blank”); }); </script>
The problem is when you filter the posts or load more (via pagination), they are not opened in a new window…
So the script only adds the target=”_blank” to visible Postgrid links.
Question, how can I edit the script to include all Postgrid links (I’ve tried adding a * with no luck)
Any help much appreciated, thanks!
Hey anton123,
You could use a MutationObserver for that like so: https://pastebin.com/Js9zGMEmKind regards
Thanks so much! It works great!
You’re welcome, anton123 
Hi! Is there a way to make only the woocommerce pages (Archives + Product Single) boxed? While the menu and footer remain full width and the other pages too?
Hey SjoerdDooren!
Are you trying to mimic the styling of the “Boxed” Salient theme option? I.e. the box shadow around the site container? If so, it wouldn’t be possible without child theme modifications to enable that just for certain pages. However, a CSS only approach could be used to contain the content width on any given set of pages. Could you kindly share your page URL so that I could provide an example?
Kind regards
Is there a way to show the “View product” button below the product name and price as a button? Using the classic product style. Either via CSS or PHP?
Hey SjoerdDooren,
You could a CSS snippet such as the following to make that modification:
.woocommerce .product-wrap {
position: static;
}
.woocommerce ul.products li.product {
padding-bottom: 40px;
}
.woocommerce .classic .product-wrap .add_to_cart_button,
.woocommerce .classic .product-wrap .product_type_variable,
.woocommerce .classic .product-wrap a.button {
transform: none;
}
Kind regards
Hi, I am getting this error when uploading the site into the hosting server, “The “text” block was affected by errors and may not function properly. Check the developer tools for more details.”
Hey mahmoudy2k,
Since there’s no known theme-related issue that would cause that I would need to take a look at your setup in order to assist. Kindly open a ticket on the support forum in regards. In the meantime, you can also check if using the classic widgets corrects that for you.
Hello! Is there currently a way to add an icon or small image to toggle panel tabs? I need one icon per section…TIA
Hey neilgalang,
Unfortunately there’s no built-in option to add a custom icon to the toggle element. It would require a custom CSS rule for each toggle that you wanted to add an icon to. You could give class name to your column e.g. custom-toggle-icons and then target them like so:
.custom-toggle-icons .toggles > div:nth-child(1) {
}
.custom-toggle-icons .toggles > div:nth-child(2) {
}
etc.
Kind regards
Hey guys, I seem to be having a problem with the Off Canvas Menu for mobile and I dont know if its just me.
I keep getting this black box above the menu and I dont know how to remove it.
https://prnt.sc/rTFgK4u8DgMPI thought it was a search bar but it literally does nothing. How do I remove it?
Hey bupelive,
That’s the area where either secondary header text or header text content will display: https://ibb.co/PjVYrD5—I would check the “text” tab within the “Text to display in header” feed to ensure that you haven’t saved an empty spaces or stray HTML in the editor: https://ibb.co/LJbL4tJ
If you can’t find anything, please share your actual page URL so that I can take a look.
Kind regards
Thanks that solved it! You guys are the best honestly!
You’re welcome, bupelive 
Hello, I was one of the first Salient buyers and still use and love this theme. I hope in a future update you can provide an update to the Woocommerce checkout pages and transactional emails (templates) as that is the real weakness, albeit not your fault, from an otherwise amazing theme. It would be truly helpful to all Salient users if you can provide these, thanks!
Hey ehong33234, thanks for the requests—your +1 has been noted on the wishlist 
Have a great weekend!
Hello, Is it possible to use thumbnails in the gallery below the images? Also is it possible to adjust the size of individual images if it is an image grid? For example, a large image on top and two small ones on the bottom. Everything I’m talking about is here as an example: https://www.bigmediumsmall.com/wildwest Thank you.
And is it possible to remove the effect of increasing the image when you hover over it with the mouse?
Hey davidgrette,
1. Currently, there’s no gallery slider offered that uses a thumbnail navigation.
You can however create grids of images similar to the URL you’ve shared. If you would like to do so manually, columns with single images inside of it would allow it, or if you’re using the “Image Gallery” page builder element, you can enable the masonry option: https://themenectar.com/docs/salient/galleries/#imagegrid
2. You can add the following snippet into the custom CSS box located in the Salient options panel > General Settings > CSS/Script related tab:
#ajax-content-wrap .portfolio-items .col img {
transform: none;
}
Kind regards
Hey there, WP Bakery Page builder is stripping the loading=”lazy” tag from img elements added to text blocks. Kind of annoying. Probably not your fault but I figured I’d mention it.
Using a Raw HTML block instead for now.
Hey again veggie_89, Thanks for mentioning—I’ve noted to look into that.
Kind regards
Any easy way to get salient’s js to make vertical video “cover” instead of “contain” when they’re set to row backgrounds? See thesend.org/wip for example. (going with vertical video as mobile is my primary target and I’d prefer not to use a separate video file for desktop.) No big deal if it’s not possible.
Hey veggie_89,
You can alter that with CSS by add the following snippet into the custom CSS box located in the Salient options panel > General Settings > CSS/Script related tab:
.wpb_row .nectar-video-wrap video {
width: 100%!important;
height: 100%!important;
object-fit: cover;
}
Kind regards
Brilliant! Thanks for the help.
You’re welcome, veggie_89 
Good evening, I have a question. In a page hosting the Portfolio it is possible to make sure that by clicking on the cover image 1, 10 photos linked only to that album appear; on cover image number 2 an album of 5 other different photos and so on; without causing the inside page to open? Thanks (unfortunately I didn’t find this option but I can only make an image appear, i.e. the cover image in the lightbox)
Hey thebugbear,
Unfortunately, there’s no built-in functionality to have each project link to its own unique Lightbox gallery—the gallery will be made up of all of the projects within the grid. However, I’ve noted your +1 for this idea on the wishlist.
Kind regards
Hi there, new day new problem. Does anyone knows why the “revealing footer” effect doesnt work on certain pages? Our website is https://undress.world (its a fashion brand, dont get excited
) and here the revealing effect is missing https://undress.world/request-form/ (this happens with all pages generated by Return Refund & Exchange For WooCommerce Pro | WP Swings plugin)
Hey bogdan_stanciu, taking a look at the source code, it looks as though you have entered the class name with the dot selector in the actual attribute—You should try changing:
.container-wrapTo be
container-wrap
Kind regards
Hi,
Just a small request from a happy long-time user: Is there any chance you could add Vero (https://vero.co/) to the list of possible social icons?
The Vero platform has seen tremendous growth recently, and it would be really cool to have the icon added to the theme’s options.
Hey itswaffles, thanks for the request
It’s been noted.
Kind regards
We’re using the below CSS to hide the bundled product details in the slide out cart. But it takes a while to load and the cart will initially show bundled product details. Could the option to hide bundled product details be incorporated into the woocommerce theme options? Or is there some alternative CSS which would preform better?
/Popout cart hide bundled product details/ .nectar-slide-in-cart.style_slide_in_click.open.mouse-accessed .variation-Includes { display: none; }
Hey MarcGarner,
You could alter the snippet to the following to make it take effect all the time:
body .nectar-slide-in-cart.style_slide_in_click .variation-Includes {
display: none;
}
That’s great thanks
You’re welcome, MarcGarner

Which Widget should i use? I try Product Categories List but the layout is not the same. The subcategories are in the same line as the maincat. I have ( ) beside the numbers, ...
Hey agenturhochdrei 
I’m glad that you were able to find some of the answers you were looking for.
In regards to your latest question, you’ll need to use the classic WooCommerce widgets for that style. You can easily enable the classic set by using this plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/classic-widgets/
thanks! worked for me 
You’re welcome, agenturhochdrei 
Hi, i have a design where i should change the Aspect Ratio of my selhosted video to around 4/1, but the closest there is, is 2.35/1. Is there a way to customize that. If so how?
Thank you
and is there a way to ad a short Videos instead of an image to a Fancybox?
Hey aldaron1,
1. You can set that custom aspect ratio by adding the following snippet into the custom CSS box located in the Salient options panel > General Settings > CSS/Script related tab:
body .wpb_video_widget.vc_video-aspect-ratio-235 .wpb_video_wrapper {
padding-top: 25%;
}
2. Unfortunately there’s no option to use a video as the background to that element as of now.
Kind regards
Quick pre-purchase question: Is it possible to limit the slider, image, content etc. width without any knowledge of code or css whatsoever? I’m on a 32:9 screen and I want most of the content, except for the header an footer maybe, to not use the whole width of widescreens.
Hey DenK3000,
You can control the main container width directly from the theme settings panel. However, if you’re looking to import one of our fluid demos that expand each section to be fullwidth, you would need to go into each section and change that row setting type: https://themenectar.com/docs/salient/page-builder-row/#row-type
Kind regards
Grwat. Thanks a lot!
You’re welcome, DenK3000
