Hi, How do I place a box in the middle of two rows? I’d like it to start before Row A ends, and finish over Row B, each row with it’s own background color. Thanks!
Hey apinzon!
That could be accomplished via absolute positioning + the use of transforms to position the box as needed. If you’d like assistance creating an example of that, please open a ticket on the support forum in regards

Is there a way to change the position of the coupon section on the checkout page so it’s not so noticeable along the top? The position/design of the coupon section on the cart page is great but the checkout page is an eyesore. Any help here could be appreciated. Thank you!

Hey Egaffin!
Here’s an article that discusses how you can alter the positioning of that field via hooks in your child theme.

Hi, I imported the blog demo but in every page there is a preload icon. How can I disable it?
Hey santiagoavellaneda,
You can disable that in the Salient options > Page transitions tab via the option titled “Animated Page Transitions”.

Which js file is responsible for Full Screen rows and the scrollable dots on the right hand side? I need to make them not being delayed at load (through optimisation plugin).
Hey juvengle,
You’ll need to exclude the following:
salient/js/build/third-party/jquery.fullPage.min.js salient/js/build/elements/nectar-full-page-rows.js salient/js/build/init.js
Though performance plugins which alter/delay JS loading will typically recommend excluding a theme directory as a whole for compatibility. e.g. salient/js/

Hi there,
I wanted to showcase the feature image of every post (in a category), similar to the “post Grid”, but on click i just to want to enlarge the picture and not navigating the user in the corresponding post.
Is this feasible? Thank you very much!
Hey nikosff! You can actually use the “Gallery Lightbox” option within the post grid to get that functionality:

so flexible theme, thanks!
You’re welcome, nikosff! 
Anyone having trouble with the footer in the salient theme? Mine is set to show and I’ve the widgets set up, but it isn’t propagating on the screen.
Hey lala2015,
There is currently no known issue with the footer area not displaying when activated. Could you please open a ticket on the support forum with your site URL so that we can take a look to assist further?

Hey, I have added a raw html element with custom icons in
- to the off canvas widget. They are linked with , the issue I am having is that the underline element is actively underlining the icons on hover. I’ve seen on the menu there is an ::after element that can be removed on hover for the underline to not display the underline, unfortunately that element isn’t visible on the icons I made. Is there a way to switch those underline with a css for the raw html element in off canvas menu widget?
Hey juvengle,
Yes, that could be modified with a CSS rule. Could you kindly share your URL in regards so that I can take a look at your setup to provide the needed snippet?
Kind regards
Hey juvengle,
Unfortunately I would need to see the site in order to see exactly what settings you’re using in order to provide an accurate snippet. You can share the URL privately if desired by reaching out via the contact form on my author page in regards.
I’ve sent it but received no reply.
Sorry about that, juvengle—I’ve located the email now 
You can use the following snippet into the custom CSS box located in the Salient options panel > General Settings > CSS/Script related tab:
#slide-out-widget-area.fullscreen-split .textwidget a {
background: transparent;
}
Kind regards
Hello, I hope you’re well. I use Gravity Forms. What’s a good way of including a self-hosted video inside a form? Gravity Forms has an html field option, but that field does not seem to parse Salient codes like [nectar_video_player_self_hosted …]
Hey marcfest,
It looks like you’ll need a snippet in your child theme to allow gravity forms to parse shortcodes from WPBakery: https://community.gravityforms.com/t/add-a-shortcode-to-an-html-module-resolved/10439/6

Hi I´m using salient as a blog template, buy I have a problem, in the articles page the offset option doesnt work, I set it to 1, 2, but it shows always the first post. How can I fix it thanks?
Hey santiagoavellaneda,
Do you have the pagination option enabled? If so, that option will override/ignore the offset option.
Hi that was my error, I Solved it by writing an css rule for hide the first element of that grid with nthchild, thanks
Hey santiagoavellaneda, I’m glad you were able to sort it out 
Cheers

I know it’s shooting for the moon, but… is there a way to make the sidecart on desktop and the mobile menu have the same “wavey” side as on this reference page: https://www.xofetti.com/. Like with an svg_border path?
Hey SjoerdDooren!
That site is just using a BG image for the wave, and I would also suggest going that route as it would be the easiest to achieve the effect. For example, https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0129/7684/8960/t/34/assets/purpul_mob_menu_wave.svg?v=11281765498222233321678342755
If you’d like us to assistance in applying that for you, kindly open a ticket on the support forum in regards

Dear Theme Nectar team,
Thank you very much for the brilliant theme.
I ‘d like to change the chamburger icon (off canvas menu on mobile) with another icon/image or text. Could you help me with that?
Cheers
Hey iliasl3!
You can change that 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/v9rktvbH

Hi ThemeNectar, I updated to the latest version and seem to lost my woocommerce sidebar filter. Can you remind me where that option is, please?
Hey AnonMe!
WooCommerce widgets are specified in the Appearance > Widgets section of your admin panel. If you’re referring to the specific theme option to add a filter “toggle” for the sidebar, that’s set in the Salient options > WooCommerce > General tab.
Is there a fix for the Salient Visual Composer PHP8 issue? or should I just switch themes?
Hey rhazelrigg, Salient has offered PHP8 compatibility for a couple of years now, and it’s the recommend PHP version to use. However, you’ll need to be a semi-recent release of the theme (and Salient plugins) to get that compatibility. The current release of Salient is 15.0.8 and the current release of the Salient WPBakery Page Builder is 6.9.1. Which versions are you using?
Kind regards
I’m using Salient v7.5.02 and Salient Visual Composer4.12… do I need to purchase something new? I tried adding the js_composer_salient via FTP but I was still having issue on my pages
You don’t need to purchase the theme again in order to receive updates—they’re provided for free. You can update by using any of the methods described here: https://themenectar.com/docs/salient/updating-salient/
Since you’re years behind the current release, I would recommend reading through this post to understand the main difference you should be aware of when updating. After you’ve updated the theme, you’ll get access to the Salient WPBakery update through your dashboard which will add PHP8+ compatibility.
If you need further assistance with this, please open a ticket on the support forum in regards
thanks for the info… I’m wondering how I could be so far behind with the updates when I update the them all the time…. how could this go wrong?
Hey rhazelrigg,
You wouldn’t have received updates for Salient through the WP dashboard unless you had installed and configured the Envato Market plugin as mentioned in the docs. If the Envato Market plugin is not active, the only way you would have been able to update would have been if you manually downloaded the theme again from ThemeForest and installed it.
and ran the new installer and now my site looks like crap. What happend? https://roberthazelrigg.com/ that big head wasn’t on the homepage before and I can’t remove it
Hey again rhazelrigg,
That section is being populated from your page header metabox, which exists towards the bottom of your edit page screen. You’ll need to remove the content which you’ve added in those fields: https://ibb.co/4gPXDN7
I”m getting closer. but I don’t want the header/roll bock section at all.
I do not see the same option you are sharing with me.
this is my view on page header: https://www.dropbox.com/s/fzzzzczctxdc3wk/Screenshot%202023-03-14%20at%209.19.41%20AM.png?dl=0
I want to remove the first blue second on the page. with the block roll. I can find the fields to clear
You’ll need to change the first option within that section to “Image Background”—You currently have selected “HTML Canvas Background”: https://ibb.co/dp9TzZw
how i can create infinite scroll with this theme? i cant find it
Hey C_Drosos, If you’re trying to add infinite scrolling to your blog archives, you can enable that option within the Salient options panel > Blog > functionality tab via the “Pagination Type” option.
Kind regards
hello! I am looking for the setting to modify the max width in layout boxed. You can help?
Hello friends of Theme Nectar!
I solved the problem with the following css code in configuration: #boxed { max width: 1550px! important; width: 100%!important; }
I have an other question. I have a row in full height format for desktop but I want to disable that option for mobile
You can help me? Thank you so much.
Hey Dooply!
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: 1000px) {
.wpb_row.vc_row-o-full-height,
.wpb_row.vc_row-o-full-height.top-level > .col.span_12 {
min-height: 0!important;
}
}
Kind regards
Hello and thank you very much! it worked perfectly
You’re welcome, Dooply 
Hi there
I’ve been trying to use the interactive map element to pin a specific location for my site. The location displayed on the site is slightly wrong when compared to that on google maps though (the pin always seems to be off to the left a bit – not the exact correct location).
I have been using the longitude and latitude numbers from the pin in the google maps url to set the location for the interactive map element and this error still seems to occur.
Has anyone else run into this problem? If so, is there a way to fix this a get a precise location for the interactive map element on my site?
Any help appreciated, thank you!
We’re making use of Leaflet maps
Hey aglet 
If you could share the URL and lat/lng I’d be glad to take a look. You can also manually adjust the lat/lng for your location, and you could tweak the location with precision by changing the last decimal in your coordinates.
Thank you so much. Is it possible you can share an email with us to send the URL? We don’t want to publicly share this site quite yet.
Hey aglet, you can reach out via the contact form on my author page in regards.
Good evening dear! A pleasure as always and thanks for your work in advance! I’m having a problem with the videos that we use in the backgrounds of rows and columns that are driving me crazy! The videos that are uploaded on the web are not heavy, moreover, they are very short, they last around 3 to 7 seconds and they are also uploaded in mp4 and webm format, which is what is recommended in the documentation. However, every time the video starts playing in a loop again, there is a black screen that is unpresentable and unbearable. It is worth emphasizing that the videos are edited and there is no black part in them. Can you give me a hand to solve this problem? This does not happen with the videos that you use in the demos of the Salient template that are online! Please I hope you can help me since I don’t know what else to do. Here I leave the link of the web in which we are working with the problem: https://desarrollotest.psicologas.org/
I stay tuned, thank you very much! Greetings!
Hey Jony_Bravo!
So far I haven’t been able to see the black screen you’re referring to when looking through those videos on the home page. Have you since rectified the issue by uploading different versions of your videos?
Kind regards
We were able to solve it, thanks a lot guys! Big hug!
Glad to hear, Jony_Bravo 
I saw that the SaaS demo theme was added to the Salient theme demo pages. Is there any way to download this particular demo? Because it doesn’t show up in the demo importer within the salient settings! Thank you and kind regards!
Hey henkbatenburg!
Yes, you just need to update your theme to the latest version (15.0.x) and then update your Salient Demo Importer plugin to the current release (1.5).
Kind regards
is it possible withthis theme to show a diffferent menu in one page and another menu to some other page? im talking about the main menu of the site, to be able to be different in some pages. thanks
also is it possible to have different colors on different product categories?
Hey C_Drosos,
1. You can use a plugin such as Conditional Menus to accomplish that functionality.
2. Are you referring to adding a unique color on the archive header for each category, or are you trying to add the colors in another location?
Cheers
