I´m trying to link a meny item to a certain section om my home page. How does that work (I can´t find where I put the CSS link in the specific section)?

Hey christoferberg,

You can add an ID to any row in the page builder which will correlate with your menu links: https://themenectar.com/docs/salient/page-builder-row/#row-id

e.g. the row id “about” could be linked to by adding a custom menu item with the URL http://domain/#about

Kind regards

I’ve been searching for hours and gave up.

How can I change the background color of my ‘Sticky Menu’?

And It’s showing a ‘Permalink menu’ underneath my bar. How can I disable that?

Thanks in advance!

Hey studioluttmer,

1. You can alter the previous snippet to the following to only apply that gradient after the user scrolls down:

html body #header-outer:not(.transparent) {
    background: linear-gradient(45deg, #00a7ff, red);
}

2. You can alter the button text color via the Salient menu options for your menu item: https://ibb.co/cg36w1x

Please open a ticket on the support forum in regards if you need further assistance with these items or for follow up questions

Kind regards

Thanks!

One last question about the menu. How can I make Icon show on the right side of the text?

You’re welcome studioluttmer :)

You can use the following CSS snippet

#header-outer ul.sf-menu>li.menu-item-has-icon>a {
    flex-direction: row-reverse;
}
#header-outer header .nectar-menu-icon {
  margin: 0 0 0 10px;
}

When I add a phone number into the social section for the icons inthe header/footer it links to a blank page do i need some code for it to work?

Same for the email does this need to be a mailto?

Hey Elliotj,

Yes, you’ll need to add tel: and mailto: to the beginning of your links if you wish for them to trigger the app functionality.

Kind regards

When adding a target=”” to an link in the team members’ description box the entire text disappears. (i am using the meta below style) you can test with with: this is a test text Click me. It shows when published, but the moment you add a target it does not show anything.

This is true for a couple of other text boxes in other components (too many to list here) a true drag to work with at this point and something the team should look out for. What is a fix to ensure links open in a new tab when using the team member modules or other components so I can use the target=”blank”?

I consider it a good practice to be able to allow links wherever we want, esp. using the target=”“feature ANY target=”” will disappear the entire text. its not just blank or _blank.

ps there is a typo in : Team Member Stlye

Thank you for your notes, fix and expertise.

Hey HokusaiTheDeveloper, WPBakery only allows custom HTML inside of fields that have the tinyMCE editor, and only one of those fields can be utilized per element—see textarea_html.

The team member uses that field for the “Team Member Biography”, available in the Meta Overlaid, Bio Modal style. https://ibb.co/G2NS7Q1

However, there is a workaround to allow WP to save HTML attributes correctly in regular fields. You must:

Hello there, I would like to use some WpBakery widgets in the footer, but when I go to Appearance – Widgets, I just see Gutenberg widgets options but no WpBakery options. Also, there is no option available in WpBakery settings to enable it win Appearance – Widgets. Please, how can I use Wpbakery widgets in Appearance—> Widgets? – Many thanks

Hey keidderf,

There’s no built-in option to assign global sections to other theme-areas than what’s currently in the theme options panel. However, that will be greatly extended in the next feature-based release, and the sidebar will become an option as well :)

Hi, thanks, that is great :) – Any ETA for that? Regards,

Hey!

The public beta for the release will open sometime next month—likely towards the middle of the month. After we get enough testing/feedback it will officially get released. That process usually takes a few weeks.

Kind regards

Team member Element in mobile doesn’t have an image when tapped. Any way to have the image appear in mobile also?

Hey Wisdomlikesilence,

You can 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 (max-width: 690px) {
body .nectar_team_member_overlay .team_member_picture {
    display: block;
    height: 40vh;
    width: 100%;
    position: relative;
}

body .nectar_team_member_overlay .inner-wrap {
    flex-wrap: nowrap;
    height: auto;
    flex-direction: column-reverse;
}
}

Kind regards

Solved.

hi, https://dimagepruebas.com/estarellas/categoria-producto/obras-originales/guitarra/ any idea why the images are so blurry? the dont look sharp, when you go inside the product the image is percet, thanks.

Hey dimage,

Image sizes for WooCommerce are defined via the WooCommerce settings in the WordPress customizer > WooCommerce > Product images tab: https://woocommerce.files.wordpress.com/2017/12/imagefeature.png

You likely just need to enter in a larger number for the “Thumbnail Width”.

Kind regards

i put it 2:3 now look nice, thanks.

Glad to hear, dimage :)

is there anyway we can remove the header completely or make it 100% transparent? Remove the logo and the text option for logo? 100% clear / blank

Hey sefwalter,

You can use the “No Header” page template to remove that: https://ibb.co/RS2m67q

Kind regards

Hi there… long time happy buyer of the theme… But I just cant find the page submenu feature anywhere. https://themenectar.com/salient/page-submenu/ Any help how to make this work is appreciated. Best, Marvin

Hey Marvin,

I’m glad to hear that you’ve been enjoying the theme :)

The page submenu is a regular element within the page builder. If you’re not seeing it as an available option, can you verify that you’re attempting to add the element to a top level row rather than a nested inner row? You can also find an example template utilizing the element inside of the Salient studio template library: https://ibb.co/zQx5tdv

Kind regards

Hi there… found it!!! 1 Tiny thing though I’m using a fancy box / discription on hover. How can I tone down the black gradient with css? Kind regards..

Hey batavus,

You can alter that strength using the element settings for “Overlay Opacity” https://ibb.co/vwWwbq5

If you’re not seeing those options, you likely need to update your version of Salient and the Salient Core plugin.

Kind regards

Hello. I have a question. Can we animate/effect while switching to other pages in the main menu?

For example in the main menu of this site: https://www.navig8group.com/

Hey evmet,

There are no options for transitions exactly as shown in your example website, but you can use the “Page Transitions” option in the Salient options panel > Page Transitions tab to add a simple effect between pages.

Kind regards

Hello. Is it possible to have the same settings as the design used in the DEMO? What settings if possible?

Hey GOODRACING,

Since that’s not an importable demo, we would need to provide you an export of that. Please open a ticket on the support forum in regards.

Cheers

Hi there,
Can the hyperlink be removed from the “By [author]” tag on the blog post header? Or at least customize it to take the reader to a custom URL instead of the default?

Hey Romanesco,

In the Salient options panel > Blog > post meta tab, you can use the “Remove Single Post Author” option to disable that link.

Kind regards

But that also removed the author string… is there a way to remove just the hyperlink, but preserve the author name, so it isn’t clickable?

Hey, you could prevent the author link from being clickable by adding in the following CSS snippet:

.meta-author {
    pointer-events: none;
}

Alternatively, you could modify the URL of the link by using the a PHP snippet in your child theme functions.php like the following: https://pastebin.com/FF2zygre

Kind regards

Hi, I like your main theme page, this one: https://themenectar.com/salient/ What is the name of this style? can you sell it to me? or put the homepage on envato elements (wordpress) please! i really like this style

Hey andreytempermoshin!

Salient is sold exclusively on ThemeForest and will not be added to Envato Elements. If you would like to use that landing page design, you can add the various sections that make it up by using the Salient Studio template library inside of the page builder: https://themenectar.com/docs/salient/salient-studio/

Kind regards

Hey Phil, when i share any post link to any social media it’s not displaying post image (header / featured) logically the link should display the social image when share or is this normal?

Hey astutestudio!

Do you have an SEO plugin active which would be adding that open graph data into your posts/pages? e.g. Rank Math / Yoast etc.

If so, please share the site URL so that I can take a look.

Cheers

I am not using any SEO plugin for now, is it important to use plugin to do so, or this is not possible without any plugin?

You would either need to activate an SEO plugin (most will automatically add those tags by default) or you could create a function via your child theme to manually add them. I would however recommend just enabling an SEO plugin to handle this.

Kind regards

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

Kind regards

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 :)
