Can we change this popular article https://prnt.sc/ljqM_lgx9LEN (in this case, we are using Nectar Popular Post in appearance>widget) we need to show specific popular post from specific category only (example Heights) in specific post with the same category (example: Heights) https://prnt.sc/wyWT308a6i-v.

If posibble, if not, can you give us css code to hide sidebar in specific post

Hey shaky512,

There is no option to query popular posts in that widget based on a specific category. You can hide it with the following snippet:

.postid-5794 #ajax-content-wrap .post-area {
  width: 100%;
  margin-right: 0;
  padding-right: 0;
}

.postid-5794 #ajax-content-wrap #sidebar {
  display: none;
}

Hello there, I have two questions for you.

1. Is it possible to add a search on a specific page to look for its content? 2. Is it possible to transform posts into modals? I would like to add some content as posts, but when you click their card on other page, instead of taking you to a page (post), it just opens a modal y can close it and continue clicking other cards.

Thanks in advance!

Hey PriR!

1. There’s no built-in search element that can be added locally on a page to search the content on a given page. Salient only offers a global site search that can be enabled in the header nav.

2. There is also no core functionality to load posts within a Lightbox, however I’ve noted your +1 for the idea on the wishlist

Kind regards

Thanks for your response ThemeNectar.

Ok, for the second question, is there a fix I can make on code to be able to open them as lightboxes? or any recommended plugin I can use instead? Let me explain, the site contains lots of vocabulary for students, and I wanted each word to be a ‘post’ so that when they click the specific word, they get a lightbox with the meaning, conjugation, etc.

For the first question, I also tried using arabic on the global search, but it didn’t throw any results. Is there a way to enable a different language on the search?

Thanks a lot!

Hey PriR,

1. It would require the use of a plugin unless you wanted to use/modify the “team member” element which does allow for a Lightbox modal to open on click where you could achieve that functionality: https://themenectar.com/salient/team-member/

If you go the plugin route, I’m afraid I don’t have a specific third-party recommendation

2. The search functionality is handled from the core of WordPress—Salient only offers a styled input to initiate the search. Can you please open a ticket on the support forum in regards with the search term so that we can take a look at the setup?

Kind regards

Is it possible to use the self hosted video player floating play button as a link to another page rather than to open and play the video? https://ibb.co/Kjq7qCc

If not is there a similar element which would work?

Hey MarcGarner,

There’s no option to link that video player Lightbox button to open a custom regular link. A custom link can’t be added on top of that element either, because the play button mouse follow effect would not longer be tracked either. In order to achieve this functionality, you would need to modify the self hosted video player template via your child theme: https://themenectar.com/docs/salient/overriding-salient-wpbakery-element-template-files-through-a-child-theme/

Kind regards

Thank you, went with using a play button image with a link.

You’re welcome, MarcGarner :)

hi, any way to do a portfolio list like this example? https://www.herzogdemeuron.com/projects/ thanks

Hey, you can use the following snippet instead:

 body .fancybox-show-nav .fancybox-navigation .fancybox-button {
  opacity: 1!important;
}
 body .fancybox-show-nav .fancybox-navigation .fancybox-button svg {
  color: #999;
}
body .fancybox-navigation button:before {
    display: none;
}

thanks

You’re welcome, dimage

I if i try to active your plugin “Salient WPBakery Page Builder” I get this Fatal error: Cannot declare class Vc_Manager, because the name is already in use in /home/u482306711/domains/MY-DOMAIN.com/public_html/wp-content/plugins/js_composer_salient/include/classes/core/class-vc-manager.php on line 14”

Probably the problem is that I have alredy installed original “WPBakery Page Builder” plugin (that I need form some pages), so: can you send me a compatible versione of your “Salient WPBakery Page Builder” plugin to have istalled both WPBakery Page Builder plugins?

Hey protesilao,

There is no way to have two versions of the plugin active. If you are just looking to enable core elements from within the original WPBakery to the Salient version, that can be done using a hook in your child theme. For example: https://pastebin.com/xEqTuLkX

Is there a way to add “Read More” either as text or button to the blogs for example in a post grid list?

Hey juvengle,

That is an option which is coming in the next release. Be sure to check out the beta availability in the changelog next week :)

Kind regards

Hey guys

On blog posts there’s a newsletter sign up at the bottom…how do we remove this and have 3 or 4 call to action blocks here instead?

See here for example – https://www.directpeak.co.uk/demystifying-payment-on-account-for-self-assessment-your-essential-guide

Many thanks

Hey BlueDolphinBusinessDevelopmentLtd,

That newsletter box is not coming directly from Salient, but rather from your plugin “convert kit”. If you wanted to inject custom content in that same section, you would need to add it via a hook in your child theme. For example,

https://pastebin.com/yBRhQ2kt

Kind regards

How do you replace images on homepage i cant find anywhere to do – https://ibb.co/6P2q4VZ

Hey giveitwebstudios, those are specified within the column settings in each tab: https://ibb.co/HHPYrZ9

Kind regards

You’re welcome, giveitwebstudios :)

HI. I have never used the portfolio feature before. I may be using it wrong to achieve what I want.

All I really want is to be able to have 4 columns of images that link to a specific page… but I don’t want any space between columns or rows. I want it to look like a portfolio grid layout. I don’t want or need any separate portfolio pages.

I tried using the portfolio feature but it’s not working as expected. The pictures aren’t displaying at all, and they aren’t in the order i want them to be. I read the documentation and searched through some of the comments here but couldn’t find any relevant tips. Thanks in advance.

Genius. Thank you!!!!!

You’re welcome, streetjen :)

One last question about portfolio… is there a way to disable the meta via css? Thanks

Hi, I have a YouTube video background and in desktop it play automatically, without sound, but in mobile only is showed the image, and the YouTube video doesnt play, so how can I fix it, thanks

Hey santiagoavellaneda,

YouTube video backgrounds do not support mobile playback due to phone blocking the autoplay functionality. If you would like to keep your video for mobile displays, you’ll need to switch to the self-hosted option: https://themenectar.com/docs/salient/page-builder-row/#video-background

Kind regards

In the architect demo, how do I make that phone number button that’s in the demo? It didn’t show after import. Thank you.

I figured it out. Button is a separate menu that needs to activated as Top Navigation Menu. In case anyone else is wondering.

Hey omakad, I’m glad that you were able to locate it. You can also read more about the Salient menu options which create that specific style in the docs here: https://themenectar.com/docs/salient/salient-menu-options/

Kind regards

Hi there,
Any way I can remove the hyperlink on the blog post (post grid element) selectively on a particular page? I have blog posts that I’d like to showcase as only the title, without them being clickable. Is this possible? Thanks!

Hey Romanesco,

You could add the following snippet to the page builder custom CSS box (top right gear icon) on your desired page where you would like to remove the linking.

.nectar-post-grid .nectar-post-grid-link,
.nectar-post-grid .post-heading a {
    pointer-events: none;
}

Cheers

Thank you!

You’re welcome, Romanesco :)

Can you help me, we are using Global section > After Page Content > to make a footer. And now we want to hide this footer spesific in certain post for an example in this post https://www.cidb.gov.my/whinstone-us-begins-construction-on-worlds-largest-bitcoin-mine/ (we want remove or hide the section i sign with red box https://prnt.sc/FanHW39mTIqQ )

Hey again shaky512, please open a ticket on the support forum in regards

Halo, please help me to hide / remove header (menu + Secondary menu) and Footer to on specific post, for an example in this post https://www.cidb.gov.my/whinstone-us-begins-construction-on-worlds-largest-bitcoin-mine/

You’re welcome, shaky512

question #1

is it posibble to apply to hide the same thing for all posts under specific categories? seems that impossible for me to hide this for each post as we have too many posts

For example i have a category called “Heights” and it has 49 posts inside it.

Is there a way to make the changes only once and it apply to all posts under this categories?

question #2

Can i also add salient shortcode in all posts under this specific category too? Meaning this shortcode will appear at the top of the posts – but selected post for “Heights” category only. I CANT do this manually for each post as it is too time consuming. Is there a way to do this setting once – and it apply for all posts under this selected category?

Hey again shaky512,

That would require a snippet in your child theme functions.php to use PHP for determining the current category and then outputting the desired CSS snippet—same goes for automatically prepending a shortcode to the top of certain posts that belong to ${X} category.

If you’d like assistance with such a snippet, kindly open a ticket on the support forum in regards

Hi. what is the actual version of the Salient theme ? thank you

Hey grizzlee06, the current release of Salient is 15.0.9: http://themenectar.com/changelogs/salient.html

Kind regards

do you have any code or css to hide / remove secondary menu on specific category archive pages. for exampl in this category only https://www.cidb.gov.my/kategori/berita-antarabangsa/ category id 206

Hey shaky512,

It looks like you’re already hiding the entire header navigation div, which contains the secondary header as a child. If you’d prefer to only hide the secondary header, you’ll need to adjust your CSS rule to be:

.archive.category-206 #header-secondary-outer {
    display: none!important;
}

Kind regards

thanks

Hello, I would like to upgrade the salient theme and the wordpress version, but I have some questions. Currently, the template version is 14.0.7 and wordpress version is 6.0.3. I would like to upgrade to wordpress 6.2 and the latest salient theme version. Which one should I upgrade first in order to not broke the website? Does the latest version of salient theme support wordpress 6.2? Thank you!

Hey cldz1,

Salient v14.0.7 should still be fine with WP 6.2, but if you’d like to take the most caution I would suggest simply upgrading the theme to the current release first.

Kind regards

I have two questions:

1. I know how to remove the header and footer on the page and it worked.

But what I don’t know how to do is how to remove headers and footers on all category archive pages example: https://prnt.sc/dVR8AP6AgHWw

2. I don’t want to display the logo on certain pages, for example on category archive pages

Thank you for the help

Hey shaky512,

1. You would need to use a css snippet such as:

body.category #header-outer,
body.category #header-space {
   display: none;
} 

body.category #footer-outer {
  display: none;
}

2.

body.category #header-outer #logo {
   display: none;
} 

Please use the support forum in the future

Kind regards

Hello team, another question

How can I remove “view cart” button and make the “checkout” button full width on the ajax cart slider? I would also like to change the color of the checkout button and the text of it too

Here’s the screenshot for reference https://ibb.co/jbDNxF5

Any ideas?

Also, here’s an example of what I’d like to do https://ibb.co/0jphY3H

Hey Acquiring,

You can make that adjustment by using the following CSS snippet:


body .nectar-slide-in-cart.style_slide_in_click .widget_shopping_cart .wc-forward:not(.checkout) {
    display: none;
}
body .nectar-slide-in-cart.style_slide_in_click .widget_shopping_cart .wc-forward.checkout {
    width: 100%;
    background: #ff2626!important;
}

Please use the support forum in the future for questions like these.

Cheers

Hi there, does this theme work with the plugin: WooCommerce Composite Products ?

Hey KemarMCaribTech,

I haven’t personally tested with that addon, but wouldn’t suspect there would be any issues. If you encounter any problems, feel free to open a ticket on the support forum in regards.
