Having trouble with dark logo showing up on page. If you click where logo is supposed to be and drag it shows up black, but on the page it just shows blank. https://comeask.org/faq/

Thanks for the help

Hey ryanl72,

The transparent header effect is not active on that page, so your logo will default to the standard “Logo Upload” field in the Header Navigation > Logo & general styling tab.

Ensure that you’ve supplied the dark version of your logo for that field: https://ibb.co/R3Dxhwc

Kind regards

Hey guys. When is Salient 16 scheduled for release? Or when are you planning to release even more demos?

Hey DomFrazer,

There is no exact date scheduled for the next major release yet. However, when the public beta opens up in the next month, you’ll be able to opt in by following the link that will show at the top of the change log located here: https://themenectar.com/changelogs/salient.html

Hi does this theme comes with contact form plugin? is it there as an element to use?

Hey samim34,

Salient does not bundle any form plugins, but you can style third party forms from the Salient options panel > form styling tab.

Kind regards

Hey guys, I have a wishlist question. Are there any future plans for a “theme builder”? Would love a header and footer builder. Would make the theme beyond great. Also, a form builder would cause people to drool.

Hey arteest!

You can already use the Global Sections feature to use the page builder for creating a custom footer: https://themenectar.com/docs/salient/page-builder-global-sections/

It is an idea on the wishlist for that to be extended for the header nav as well so I’ve noted your +1 for the idea.

Kind regards

Hey there -) With Google Fonts installed, the Google fonts are showing up as option inside the Salient Typography options panel, but inside the font dropdown of the post / page editor menu, only the standard fonts are displayed. What am I doing wrong? Thanks as always.

Hey marcfest,

That TinyMCE editor is a core part of WP that is separate from the options panel typography and has minimal family options. There’s no built0in functionality to add Google fonts to that section. I would instead suggest you use the Salient typography options to assign your desired fonts to various headings, and then use those through the text block: https://ibb.co/nbKTd4c

Kind regards

That will work. Thank you.

You’re welcome, marcfest :)

Hi,

In the Portfolio module, under Lightbox mode, can it pop up video like it does with photo?

Regards Victor

Hey victordd,

Yes, videos can be added to your project to show in the Lightbox via the “Video settings” metabox towards the bottom of any edit project page: https://ibb.co/SXfz206

Kind regards

works like a charm. Thank you!

You’re welcome, victordd :)

Hi there,
Is there a way to avoid the post filer turning into a button on mobile? Or at least, make it not be a button? Thanks!

Hey Romanesco,

You can use the following snippet for that:
@media only screen and (max-width: 1000px) {
  #ajax-content-wrap .nectar-post-grid-filters h4 {
    display: none;
  }
  #ajax-content-wrap .nectar-post-grid-filters div {
    display: block;
  }
}

Please use the support forum in the future when posting multiple questions: https://themenectar.ticksy.com/

Thanks in advance

Thank you! That works, but the words have a padding to the left (if aligned left). Is there a way to also remove that padding so it is inline with the global padding instead?

Hey Romanesco, can you share the page URL where you’re using that snippet so I can assist further?

Hi there,
Is there a way to adjust the global/ default padding of the left and right space on mobile?

Hey Romanesco,

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

@media only screen and (max-width: 690px) {
  body .container {
      max-width: 92%;
  }
}

Cheers

Wonderful! Thank you so much.

You’re welcome, Romanesco :)

Hi, on my site: https://kinko.co.za/new/contact/, I get the following error on the Google map in the contact page. I have correct Map Api and have never seen this, any idea what causes this: Warning: Trying to access array offset on value of type bool in /usr/www/users/kinkoe/new/wp-content/plugins/salient-core/includes/vc_templates/nectar_gmap.php on line 69

Hey gustav939,

It sounds like the image added to the “Marker Image” field in that element was deleted from your server. Try to add a new image and then remove it (if you do not wish to use it). If you need further assistance with that, kindly open a ticket on the support forum in regards.

Cheers

Our shop page is not currently displaying products. There appears to be an error with the filter sidebar, but the products display on other category page etc -https://www.foodieflavours.com/shop/

Seems this is now fixed, we added the new shop block and then removed it. Will we need to switch to the “all products” block at some point? Doesn’t look like that block has theme styling.

Hey MarcGarner,

The “All products” block is a built-in element from WooCommerce to create a product grid. It’s unrelated to the product elements that we provide in Salient, and it’s not required to be utilized. If you run into your shop display issue again, kindly open a ticket on the support forum in regards

Under the WPBakery Page Builder ‘Role Manger’ Settings (under ‘Editor’ Role) there’s an options to ‘Disable Classic Editor’ and make the Backend Editor ‘Enable and default’. How can I get this option for the Administrator Role???

Hey kford,

Unfortunately, WPBakery at the core doesn’t allow for custom permissions to be set for the admin. They made this change a year or so ago and have stated that admins should have access to everything: https://ibb.co/fr2jt3N

Hi there, I’m working with woocommerce for a e-commerce site and Im wondering if its possible to create a check box list to filter a product by categories? I noticed that you can filter by attribute (which give you a check box list) by the only option for categories is to have a product category list (no check box filtering functionality). Here is the reference site – I basically want to have a check box filter for the products by category just like how the “filter by size” is set up. Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks!

Reference site: https://themenectar.com/salient/ecommerce-robust/product-category/skincare/

Hey aglet, that could be simulated with CSS to allow the categories list widgets to display the checkbox. Here’s a snippet you can add into your adding the following snippet into the custom CSS box located in the Salient options panel > General Settings > CSS/Script related tab: https://pastebin.com/a8NtUDrP

Hi there. Is it possible to hide specific category names from the sortable portfolio options. I have some portfolio items tagged to some sub categories but I don’t want the portfolio to be sortable by these categories. Thanks

I’m using the “horizontal inline” method

Worked it out

.portfolio-filters-inline ul li a[data-filter=”.xxxcategory”] { display: none; }

Hey wints77, I’m glad to hear that you found what you needed :)

Kind regards

Is it possible to make images fade in after loading, especially on Woocommerce category and product pages?

Hey chrisgin,

We don’t provide animation options beyond fade that lazy loading would add for WooCommerce archives. However, you could set animations for any images added through the page builder on the single product page.

Kind regards

Hi there,
in your carousel demo here: https://themenectar.com/salient/carousel/
The very first example – flickity style carousel with a touch indicator – so when I move with a mouse a nice round indicator will follow it – that’s cool!
Problem – when I add a button or any link into that carousel – the touch indicator will overlay anything I put in there, as a result it’s hard to click the button or CTA
How to remove touch indicator when I hover on button or link? https://ibb.co/CM5QGX9
I was trying to play around with an “a href” tag :hover display none – doesn’t work at all :D I went ahead and asked chatGPT for help – website crashed :D :D :D
So, I’m here – any advice would be appreciated

Hey Lateralus578!

Currently there’s no class name that will temporarily hide that drag indicator, but I’ll be adding one in the next release so that any element (such as the CTA) could make use of it.

If you’d like early access to this change, feel free to reach out via the contact form on my author page in regards.

Cheers

Hello!

We experience a problem in our site and we were wondering if there has been a similar problem in the past. We have setup some products and in there we have used an html element to put an embedded video. The thing is that once in a while the embed code will be erased without changing anything else, even the html element is in it’s place. Has this ever occured before?

Thanks in advance

Hey frtcyprus! I haven’t seen that issue occur before. Could you kindly open a ticket on the support forum in regards so that we can take a closer look at your setup?

Hey, looking into buying this theme. But I need to know if I can use a “store locator”? And if so, which one would Salient recommend?

Greatful for your answer :)

Hey christoferberg! I don’t personally have a plugin to recommend for that functionality. However, if you run into any compatibility issues with an established third-party plugin, we would be more than happy to help :)

Kind regards

Thank you for the answer :)

I will try the most popular one and hopefully I won´t run into any problems.

You’re welcome, christoferberg :)

If you need any assistance, feel free to open a ticket on the support forum in regards.

Hi. I’m using sticky rows, by selecting Row settings > Sticky row On > Bottom of window. This works great, however, it doesn’t remain sticky on smaller viewport sizes such as mobile. How can the row remain sticky on all device sizes? Thanks,

Hey webspacedesignuk,

The sticky functionality offered on rows is intentionally disabled for mobile devices in the current release. I would suggested utilizing position: fixed via a custom CSS rule to keep items “sticky” in mobile viewports to ensure the best cross-device compatibility. If you’d like to share the page URL you’re working on, I’d be glad to provide an example snippet.

Kind regards

Hi,

I have the Menu Bottom Bar menu selected and I try to make the humburger icon to have all 3 lines equal, just like the orginal skin.

I use this code

.lines:before, body[data-slide-out-widget-area-style=slide-out-from-right-hover] .slide-out-hover-icon-effect.slide-out-widget-area-toggle.small .lines:before {
    width: 1.4rem!important;}

this fixes on desktop but not mobile.

what am i doing wrong?

thanks

Hey toolbox101, change your snippet to the following: https://pastebin.com/g2ns9mQi If that doesn’t work, please share your URL so that I can take a look.

Cheers

Hi, I need to remove access from the Global Section for an editor that I am adding to the site. I tried going under WPBakery and removing it in role manager but it is not working. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

Could not delete this comment but made it work with a plugin! Sorry to have bothered you!

No worries, katt101! Glad you got it sorted :)
