When we use the portfolio video show light-box only feature. How do we give special embed commands to the embedding Youtube video? like for example disabling showing recommend videos at the end with the ”?rel=0” command? Thank you.

Hey joeri84,

Currently custom query attributes are ignored when using the gallery Lightbox option. However, I’ve noted to add support for those in the next release. If you’d like early access, please open a ticket on the support forum in regards.

Thanks in advance

Is there any integration for the Woocommerce Product Recommendations plugin? Adding these as woocommerce carousel elements like the woocommerce product element would be ideal.

Hey MarcGarner, there’s no built-in functionality to enable the carousel functionality on third party sources like that plugin. However, I’ve noted the idea :)

Please, is it possible to somehow put a list of categories into the code in the single portoflio page, just below the headline of the portfolio, just like on https://www.cpbailey.co.uk/simply-plan Thank you!

This code has stopped working and the categories are not showing on the frontend.

Sorry, my mistake, I was uploading the file to a different directory. However, it would be great the category display feature directly into the settings options.

Hey romankac, I’m glad you were able to get it working :)

Kind regards

Hello, I have problem with upgrading php 7.4 to 8. The theme is craching, le problem looks like to come from redux-framework I’ve got the 10.5.3 version of salient, how could I update the theme from theme dashboard ? And, does the new update support PHP 8 ? Thank you for answer Maxime

Hey Maxime,

You will need to be using a version of Salient that’s greater than v14 as older versions will not be able to run PHP8. The current release of Salient is 15.0.8.

Please take a look at the documentation for upgrading here: https://themenectar.com/docs/salient/updating-salient/

Kind regards

After latest update Lottie files are showing up twice, one on top of the other.

Hey prophecyprojekt, the last few updates didn’t change anything relating to Lottie integration. Because I can’t seem to replicate it locally or on the live Salient demo, please open a ticket on the support forum in regards so that we can take a closer look into your setup.

Thanks in advance

Hi guys.

How can I get this text scrolling effect? https://pasteboard.co/3djTHx905S9k.png Thanks.

Hey LuisVoronov,

Those are two rows using the “Scrolling Text” element, but both rows set a slight “rotate” degree within the transform settings. You can actually import that specific section via the Salient Studio template library to your page in order to use or examine it: https://ibb.co/CK3kJd4

Kind regards

Thank you soo much for the info :)

You’re welcome, LuisVoronov :)

Hello,

Is there any feature to make the main navigation (with mega menu) on click instead of on hover ? I find the navigation a bit sloppy on mega menu (unespected open menu when trying to access a submenu)

Thanks Regards

Hey Rico1, unfortunately there’s no built-in functionality to change sub menus or a mega menu to open via click. That would require some custom JavaScript via a child theme and CSS to prevent the current open on hover.

Kind regards

Hello,

Thanks for your reply. Have a nice weekend.

You as well, Rico1!

Good Morning!

I have been banging my head on trying to make a specific element in salient and just cant seem to figure out how to and hope you might be able to help. So here is what I’m looking to do. I would like to make this element (link to images below) and have it so that the element stays the same for both desktop and mobile and not stack. I cant seem to figure out if I’m supposed to use a single column and then have a 3 column inside or if its supposed to be a 3 column off the rip. I do not need the drop down functionality. All I care about is the rank, name, and points section all staying on the same line on both desktop and mobile.

Desktop view – https://www.bulbaritos.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Example.png

Mobile view- https://www.bulbaritos.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Example-mobile.png

Website for reference – https://pickem.callofdutyleague.com/leaderboards/2023/major2

Hey Anthony_And_Marisa!

You would be able to achieve by setting 3 columns for your desktop layout and then using the “Responsive Options” tab within each of the columns settings to specify that same width for the mobile viewport. Please refer to the following section within the docs: https://themenectar.com/docs/salient/page-builder-columns/#width

Kind regards

Hello,

I saw a website build with Salient and I would like to be able to reproduce an effect, the site is:

http://www.javaclub.ch/

On the home page of this website, the content of the home page goes over the slider video when you scroll.

I would like to know where is the buton setting to activate this function, and I also would like to know if it is possible to do the same effect on the footer.

Best regards

Hey nedana,

That site you’ve shared is using the “Page Header” metabox to set a fullscreen parallax video at the top: https://ibb.co/Sf75055

You can also create a parallax footer by enabling the “Footer Reveal Effect” in the Salient options panel > footer tab, assuming that you’re using the “Main footer area” option.

Kind regards

Thank you for your help

Best Regards

You’re welcome, nedana :)

Hi, how can I change the width of the blog sidebar? I have looked for everywhere but I cannot find the option! Please let me know

Hey keidderf,

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

@media only screen and (min-width: 1000px) {

body .post-area.span_9 {
    width: 65%;
    margin: 0;
    padding-right: 4%;
}

body #sidebar.span_3 {
    width: 35%;
}
}
Kind regards

Hey, thanks a lot for your help!

You’re welcome, keidderf :)

Anyone else run into the critical/fatal website error when updating PHP to 8 from 7.4? I have 10+ Salient websites I am trying to update and every time I update the PHP the site breaks. Help please :)

Hey DenWebDesign!

Salient offers PHP8 compatibility, and that’s the recommended version to use. You will however need to be using a version of Salient that’s greater than v14 as older versions will not be able to run it. The current release of Salient is 15.0.8. If you’re already running a recent release of Salient please open a ticket on the support forum in regards.

Hi, when I embed TikTok a blue vertical line appears. I can’t get rid of it. When I put the same code on a different theme, the line doesn’t appear. https://tinyurl.com/3jmb8z2c

Hey djb19, I’m not 100% clear on what you mean by 4×4 for the thumbnail—Are you referring to the thumbnail aspect ratio (1:1 square), or possibly the column grid number (4 columns)?

Sorry, yes 1:1 aspect ratio

No worries, djb19. You can modify the post thumbnails to display in that aspect ratio by adding the following snippet to your child theme functions.php https://pastebin.com/QSnCfXJb

Once that’s been added, you’ll need to regenerate your thumbnails by using a plugin such as:https://wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/

I can’t see the custom fields option on portfolio items. Is it possible to enable it?

OK, sorry. I’m not using ACF or any extra plugin. I just need the option to show custom fields in the back end editor for the project, which doesn’t seem to be possible currently. It’s a setting within the custom post type isn’t it? Is there any reason for it to be disabled?

Hey beachmat,

You’ll have to add ‘custom-fields’ to the portfolio post type ‘supports’ argument in wp-content/plugins/salient-portfolio/includes/admin/register-post-type.php: https://ibb.co/0DqnFNW

I’ve noted to enable that by in the next version.

Cheers

Thanks

Feature request. On a page for a single portfolio item, where it shows the featured image at full width at the top, can you please make it responsive? It’s still sending the full size image on smaller screens.

Sorry, I had the wrong image in your demo – it’s photo-1505299916137-b69793a66907.jpg isn’t it, and I see srcset is working. So not to worry. But it would be nice if the gallery thumbnails had srcset.

Hey beachmat,

Are you referring to these gallery images? https://ibb.co/WxKrp6j

Kind regards

Apologies, I was looking at the a element instead. All good.

Hello,

Is there any way of displaying portfolio items in fullscreen mode within the widgets? So they have full width?

When adding the portfolio widget, there are options for 4/3/2 columns and then full width, but when I switch it to full width the only thing I can see is a small thumbnail. It acts exactly the same as 4 colums mode, is this a bug or am I not setting it up correctly?

Thanks!

Nevermind! I found a solution, it has to be done via ‘post grid’ as opposed to ‘portfolio’ widget.

Hey dephixeb1! I’m glad that you were able to find a solution :)

And yes, the post grid is the newer and more flexible option for creating grids of any post type.

Kind regards

In version 15.0.8, in the recent projects module, if you choose the first project style on the list (meta below thumb with links on hover), the text buttons that appear when you hover over a project are not visible. I don’t know when it stopped working but it was ok in version 14.

Hey beachmat,

Thanks for pointing that out. You can correct it prior to the next update by adding the following snippet into the custom CSS box located in the Salient options panel > General Settings > CSS/Script related tab:

https://pastebin.com/0Xs59gSK

Kind regards

OK, thanks.

You’re welcome, beachmat :)

Halo, can i move (back to top button position) to bottom left? How?

Hey shaky512,

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

body #to-top {
  right: auto;
  left: 20px;
}

Kind regards

Thanks, it works

You’re welcome, shaky512 :)

Hi! it’s possibile to insert title etc in post grid not under the image but left or right? thanks a lot

Hey davide_difrancesco!

There is no option for that just yet, however, the next feature-based release will be adding the option :)

Kind regards

Thanks! but for now is there a option with css? I love the post grid look.

Have a nice day!

Hey davide_difrancesco,

If you set the style to “Content under featured image”, you could use CSS similar to this as a starting point: https://pastebin.com/jAZ6TwvK

Hi! Is there any major Salient update coming soon? Hoping new features!

Hey dreiblau! Yes, we’re always in the process of working on the next big thing :)

If you’d like to get early access to the beta once it’s available, I would recommend periodically checking back to the changelog as we place a banner there to access it during that time.

Kind regards

Hi. How can I change the order of the socials in the navigation menu? The problem is when facebook and linked in site together it says ‘Fin”.

I have had a look in the PHP documents, but wasn’t able to located the socials. Please can you help me change the order so it goes. Facebook, Instagram, Linked.

Here is the issue on the website.

https://karlbenz.co.uk/

Many thanks

Hey alexbirks,

You can copy the function “nectar_get_social_media_list” (located in salient/nectar/helpers/header.php) to your child theme functions.php file in order to alter the order of those.

Kind regards

Hi. Thank you for that. That has worked perfectly in the main navigation menu but it has not changed the order in the mobile menu. Where might I find that list? Thanks

You’re welcome, alexbirks :)

You should be able to correct that order by disabling the option labeled “Off Canvas Menu Add Social” in the Salient options > header navigation > off canvas menu tab. I know it seems strange—but turning that off will default to inheriting the same list as you have enabled in your top nav and keep the order.
