Hi,
In the next update can you add please (Preload Largest Contentful Paint Image) in the performance tab?
Most plugins dont have this? I have used wp rocket, sg optimizer and many others. None have this.
In fact, Very few have this and they are too expensive. 
Thanks
Hey toolbox101,
The beta for the next big release is already being tested by the user base and new features have been paused. However, I’ve noted the idea on the wishlist for future updates.
Kind regards
hi,
how come most of the elements have an option to disable animation on mobile but the scrolling text does not?
Thanks
Hey toolbox101,
Not every element has the ability to disable its own animation for mobile only. However, you can accomplish that if desired with the following CSS rule:
@media only screen and (max-width: 1000px) {
#ajax-content-wrap .nectar-scrolling-text .nectar-scrolling-text-inner > * {
animation: none;
}
}
Kind regards
Hello, I have built this site using your theme https://optimapartners.co.uk/ All is working well but the pagination for the Latest News section on the homepage doesn’t seem to be working correctly. I was hoping that if a user clicks on a pagination number the 3 news articles are replaced by 3 more but instead it loads a brand new version of the homepage with this url structure: https://optimapartners.co.uk/page/2/ How do we make this work the way that we would like it to work?
Hey hurley_,
The closest functionality built into Salient for that would be the “Load More” pagination option within the Post Grid page builder element: https://themenectar.com/salient/dynamic-post-grid/ I would recommend switching to that element over the Blog element to get access to the AJAX style pagination.
Kind regards
Hi, is there any date for new demos THANKS!
Hey johannes1000, the beta of the new release is currently being tested with the user base to ensure stability. It will still likely be another few weeks, as we decided to extend one of planned features to be more powerful
Kind regards
Any news about new demos?
Hey johannes1000, we’re aiming to release v16 next weekend
I don’t understand how to make it right. Clone the whole block for mobile version or try to change responsive settings. Right now my title looks smaller on mobile device although it is huge in desktop. and the subtitle vice versa is huge in mobile device but small in desktop. Is it okay to have one block visible for desktop and the clone visible to mobile like in Tilda. Will it make the website heavier or not? WP Bakery tutorials are useless, youtube tutorials are ugly and the English there is awefull. Would you please help with that?
I have purchased the theme but didn’t use it for two years as I was sick very long. Please help me with the link to the normal guide that explains that thing in particular.
Hey alabanco,
Without seeing what elements you’re using to create your title and subtitle, I can only give general information. If you’d like to share your actual page URL, I would happy to provide detailed information tailored to your actual setup.
In general, it’s best to adjust responsive settings when possible rather than duplicating content into two different setups, because that does still load both sets of HTML in the DOM.
Salient provides a page builder element called “Responsive Text”, which allows easy adjustments between devices for sizing: https://ibb.co/QKXvB0Z
If you’re using a different element, you can still globally adjust the sizing of your headings (h1-h6) via the Salient options panel > Typography tab > Responsive Settings tab.
Kind regards
Thanks. I have already managed to do so. One other question that I haven’t found in documentation. Is it possible to have different header menu to different pages? Global sections option doesn’t work it. you can have there only one footer. No information about how to make it different to different pages
Hey alabanco,
There’s no built-in option to switch the menu conditionally based on the current page. However, you can a free plugin such as Conditional Menus to accomplish that functionality.
Kind regards
PreSales – Can I get a demo exactly as the look of your preview homepage? like this http://preview.themeforest.net/item/salient-responsive-multipurpose-theme/full_screen_preview/4363266?_ga=2.16151414.1510995563.1682986748-76816881.1674692624&_gac=1.146791878.1683037452.Cj0KCQjw6cKiBhD5ARIsAKXUdybI5PDnDXZPZAjbC0Jtr0EjeHnOZWifLQv6wgJiWOPAVKAy4H_3QYQaArpJEALw_wcB
Hey jocre,
There’s no importable demo of that page, however most of the sections on it have been added into the Salient Studio template library for easy insertion on your own pages. https://themenectar.com/docs/salient/salient-studio/
Kind regards
Good Day
is there a way to change the menu button for off canvas to one that looks like the attached link https://www.thedesignco.ca
Also can we move the logo to the right
Hey F5Creative,
1. Adding the following snippet into the custom CSS box located in the Salient options panel > General Settings > CSS/Script related tab should give you something close:
#header-outer #top .slide-out-widget-area-toggle.mobile-icon .lines:before,
#header-outer #top .lines:before {
width: 1.4rem!important;
}
#top .slide-out-widget-area-toggle a span {
transform: scaleX(1.5)!important;
}
2. I would need to see your URL to create an example snippet based on your current header settings.
Kind regards
The URL is http://www.dlivingza1.f5creative.co.za
Hey F5Creative,
You can use the following CSS for that:
@media only screen and (max-width: 1000px) {
#header-outer #top .span_3 {
text-align: right!important;
}
#header-outer #top .span_9 {
right: 100px;
}
}
#top .span_3 {
margin-right: 0;
margin-left: 2%;
order: 2;
}
Kind regards
How do I move the menu icon to the left The URL is http://www.dlivingza1.f5creative.co.za
Hey F5Creative,
#header-outer[data-format=default] #top .span_9 {
margin-left: 0;
margin-right: auto;
right: auto;
}
Kind regards
Thank you so much,
Just noticed the cart model moves to the left and products don’t show
http://www.dlivingza1.f5creative.co.zaHey F5Creative, you can adjust the positioning of the cart drop-down with:
https://pastebin.com/qNTeY29Zhi my client is using salient and using its child theme Version: 1.1554614363. my question is, would this need to be updated?
thanks
i know it usually doesn’t , but it seems a bit old.
Hey KimCheeZZ,
The Child theme version is intended to be maintained by the user—it ships with the version of 1.0 and is just a minimal base. The 1.1554614363 version must have been added by whoever was working with it last.
Kind regards
It’s too late to log in and check. How many hours has it been? You’re taking my money and stalling for time.TICKET #3359158
Hey aiu072,
The agent who picked up your ticket last night resides at the opposite timezone as you. We apologize for the delay caused by that.
I was wrong. I am sorry. I said that it was a scam, because of their slow reply. That is wrong. They replied sincerely. Thank you very much.
Is there a response yet? It is slow. I paid for this.TICKET #3359158

https://themeforest.net/item/salient-responsive-multipurpose-theme/4363266/supportHi! How can I embed the slider from Slider revolution on the main page of the site?
Hey, art_andry!
You should be able to utilize the “Slider Revolution” page builder element directly inside of the builder: https://ibb.co/tw0KFb5 Are you unable to see that available on your end as an available block element?
Kind regards
Hello! How are you? I hope you are fine.
I’m writing in connection with one, small thing. Namely I used on one of my subpages GRID POST. Unfortunately background color is permanently white and I can set color background on hover only. How can I make it black for background color with orange texts and ON HOVER orange background with white text? : )
Hey CreativePlace!
That would require a custom CSS rule. Can you kindly share your actual page URL where you’re using that element so that I can provide an example rule?
Cheers
Thank you so much. I can rely on you as always. 5 stars support. You can check it here http://witamy.stronazen.pl I’m looking for your solution. Best regards.
Glad to help CreativePlace
Here’s a CSS rule you can use for that:
.nectar-post-grid.vert_list_counter .nectar-post-grid-item {
background-color: #000;
}
#ajax-content-wrap .nectar-post-grid[data-text-color=dark] .nectar-post-grid-item:not(:hover) .content * {
color: #ea5131;
}
It works perfect! You’re the best support team on theme forest. Have a nice day.
Great! Hope you have a nice day as well
Cheers
Hi there,
Is there a way to selectively hide just the caption of the Image Grid Style element?
Hey Romanesco,
adding the following snippet into the custom CSS box located in the Salient options panel > General Settings > CSS/Script related tab should allow for that modification:
.wpb_gallery .col .work-info .vert-center p {
display: none;
}
Kind regards
You guys are the best. Thank you!
You’re welcome, Romanesco
Hello. I am able to add a custom post type. But how to display the custom post type via the lists / recent posts or other display components? Where is the documentation on that? Thank you
Hey H0kus41,
The Recent Posts element does not support querying from data sources other than the “post” post type. However, you can use the Post Grid element instead, which does allow you to use a custom query: https://ibb.co/L8q2Vv2
Kind regards
I don’t want to pay for it, but I paid for it and now I can’t send in my support ticket. Is this a scam? You’ll get a message like this. Sorry, support for this Envato Market purchase code has expired. You will need to extend support or purchase a new license.
Hey aiu072,
When you purchase a support extension license it can take up to an hour for the Envato API to refresh that data with Ticksy. You should already be able to open a ticket at this point.
Kind regards
The translation is not reflected.I created a .po and .mo from nectar_salient_strings.pot and translated it. The translation methods are Poedit, a windows app, and Loco Translate, a plugin. Both were not working. I am Japanese.
Hey aiu072,
Salient is fully compatible with manual translation methods, such using Poedit, or translating via a WordPress plugin like Loco Translate.
When you’re translating manually using Poedit, you must ensure to name your .po/.mo files the same as your current WP language. If your WP instance is specified to use Japanese, then the files should be namedja.po ja.mo
And they should be uploaded to: ‘wp-content/themes/salient/lang/’.
You can also find documentation on translating with Loco Translate here.
If you would like further assistance with translating, please open a ticket on the support forum in regards.
I am doing exactly what it says. I’ve been asked to open a ticket in the support forum, but I don’t want to pay just for this issue.
Hi Themenectar. Wonderful theme….one pre-sale question regarding navigation menus. Most of our site would use a standard navigation menu, but for specific products, we would like to create scrolling product landing pages similar to the one you present here: https://themenectar.com/salient/product. Is there some CSS that can be used to suppress the standard menu and replace it with a menu of anchor links and a “buy”button that goes to the product ordering page?
Hey mikeveee, I’m glad you like it!
If you need to create specific menus that conditionally display on certain pages, you could use a plugin such as https://themify.me/conditional-menus to achieve that functionality without any additional coding.
Kind regards
Hi ThemeNectar, I’ve written in via email, but in the event i got the wrong email asking here again. I’m using a premium plugin that sends notification when pages are updated. The form, for example, is a shortcode. When i embed this on wpbakery in a raw html block, the form doesn’t show the success message once submitted. Using the classic mode, the shortcode works correctly (default post_content area?) but breaks the menu. Other shortcodes for different functions respond the same, only on classic mode not wpbakery raw html block. Kindly let me know if there is a solution for this. Links and references sent via email. Thanks again,
Hey webspacedesignuk, I did receive your email and have followed up via it
Kind regards
Hey guys! I purchased Salient a few years back. Just wanted to give you the heads up—these guys are stealing your brand, logo and images… for their own theme. So sad:
https://themeforest.net/user/kingthemesHope Theme Forest can pull their theme since it’s in violation of copyright and theft.
Ironically – their slogan is “BE ORIGINAL”. Wow.
Hey unionfoundry! I appreciate you pointing that out—Unfortunately, this isn’t the first instance of such a thing and I’m sure it won’t be the last.
Cheers
My tabbed section shortcode has stopped working on woo commerce products. I have found a solution, but it means I have to add [tab style=”default”] per tabbed section to hundreds of product pages. Is there a global way to fix this?
Hey kitkana84,
If you’re using a legacy format of the tabbed shortcode from many years ago in that many areas, I would recommend simply overriding the tabbed_section template file in your child theme to switch back to the older structure.wp-content/plugins/salient-core/includes/vc_templates/tabbed_section.phphttps://themenectar.com/docs/salient/overriding-salient-wpbakery-element-template-files-through-a-child-theme/
The line that would need changing is the regular expression used to extract the tab titles from the shortcode (around line 104). If you’d like further assistance with this, kindly open a ticket on the support forum in regards and let me know the ticket ID here.
Thanks in advance
