I hope you’re in good spirits and healthy. I’m currently experiencing a challenge related to Gravity Forms when used with the Salient theme.
The issue concerns a specific Gravity Forms feature known as the “conditional button.” This functionality enables a button to display only when a specific value is entered into a predetermined input field. However, when the Salient theme is activated, this feature interferes with the display of Vimeo iframes.
I’ve already discussed the matter with the Gravity Forms support team. They attribute the conflict to the Salient theme. This assertion is substantiated by the fact that deactivating Salient resolves the issue.
To illustrate, I have created two test pages. The first page (A) operates with the Salient theme activated, while the second page (
functions with it deactivated. Aside from this variable, the pages are identical. In this setup, the Vimeo video is only visible on page B, where Salient is turned off.
To observe the behavior of the conditional button, please input the word “test” into the text line input field – this will cause the submit button to appear.
Here are the links to the test pages for your review:
A (Salient ON): https://course.elevatorspeechtraining.com/testing-2/
B (Salient OFF): https://estcourse.dev.onpressidium.com/testing-2/
Thank you as always 
Hey marcfest,
You should be able to correct that by adding the following snippet into the custom CSS box located in the Salient options panel > General Settings > CSS/Script related tab:
.gform-body iframe, .gform-body iframe.iframe-embed {
height: auto!important;
width: auto!important;
}
If you’d like to open a ticket on the support forum in regards I’d be glad to follow up further.
Cheers
You’re amazing. Thank you.
Glad I could help, marcfest
Hi there! I have enabled the Secondary Header Bar and have it set to “Display Items Above Mobile Header”. It works great on the homepage but not on other pages such as the following as there is a white bar above it when viewing on a phone, and a black bar above the top nav once you scroll down: https://www.prepsos.com/product/augason-farms-30-day-1-person-emergency-food-supply/
Hey MikeMurphyINC!
It looks like something is dequeuing the WPBakery page builder CSS on your other pages. I would need to take a closer look at the backend of your website in order to fully pinpoint the root cause, but in the meantime you could add the following snippet into the custom CSS box located in the Salient options panel > General Settings > CSS/Script related tab to correct it:

Hi, quick question for your amazing theme. Is there a way to create a row with an image on the left column two images on the right column and set it to equal height? Something like you can see here https://www.alltime.ru/ Thanks!
Hey alfamarble!
Yes, we include a template with a similar layout that you can import from the Salient Studio in order to modify/learn from. It’s called “Features Grid #4”: https://ibb.co/TgXH86n
Kind regards
Exaclty what I was searching for. Thank you for the quick reply. You are awesome!
You’re welcome, alfamarble
What is the default order that portfolio items sort? It seems random, not alphabetical nor order of creation. Thanks
Hey streetjen,
The default order is by creation date. If your projects are not showing in that order, I would suspect something else in the setup in specified to alter them in some way but would need to take a look at you setup to say what exactly.
In general, if you’d like finer control over your query, I would suggest using the Post Grid element instead: https://themenectar.com/salient/elements/dynamic-post-grid/
Kind regards
Is it possible to filter the recent posts element to only show posts with a certain tag?
Hey MarcGarner,
You could use the “Post grid” element for that with a custom query specified to achieve that: https://ibb.co/Q6s78Jh
Kind regards
A horizontal scroll layout option on the post grid would be great.
Hey MarcGarner, that change is coming in the upcoming big release
Cheers
Hello! I have menus “Top Navigation menu Pull Right” that go under the main menu on small screens “Top Navigation menu”. How to fix it?
Hey art_andry!
You could adjust your “Header Mobile Breakpoint” in the Salient options panel > Header navigation > Mobile header tab to prevent that overlap. Alternatively, you could use CSS to shrink the size of your menu items on smaller display—if you’d like assistance with that snippet, feel free to share your page URL in regards.
Cheers
Hi,
how is it possible to make an 1/2 +1/2 column full width content and in one 1/2 an full-width and height gallery? not Fullscreen but within the column. The columns are equal height and center middle byt i always have top and bottom spaces for the gallery.
Something like an background image in the column but as an gallery.
THX & Cheers!
Hey agenturhochdrei!
Can you share your page URL so that I can take a look at your current gallery settings to assist?
Kind regards
Thanks agenturhochdrei,
You can accomplish that by editing the columns which hold your image galleries and setting their padding to 0.
Then add the following snippet into the custom CSS box located in the Salient options panel > General Settings > CSS/Script related tab:

Hi, is there a way to disable links on post grid, so I can have the grid but disable access to single posts?
Thanks,
Hernan B
Hey Hernan
Yes, you can accomplish that by using the following CSS snippet on your page with the post grid:
.nectar-post-grid a {
pointer-events: none;
}
Cheers
Does the latest version of the theme support PHP version 8.1?
Hey Hanif85,
Yes, you should be fine to run PHP 8.1—the upcoming release is bringing 8.2 compatibility as well.
If you’re experiencing any specific issues, please open a ticket on the support forum in regards

Hi, I have an old license and already published the site, now I have create another website with the old license on my localhost do I have to buy a new license? if yes have to activate it without losing all the pages
Hey mahmoudy2k,
You must obtain a single license for each use on a live domain. However, if you’re removing the existing live site to build a new one, that would be allowed.
Kind regards
We are using a child theme from version 10.5.3. from 6/14/2019 for the Salient WordPress theme. The latest version is v15.0.9 dated 4/6/23. We need to re-purchase the theme as we lost the license. Can you please tell me if all we need to do is update the parent theme?
Hey Hanif85,
As long as you haven’t made major modifications to template files via your child theme, you likely will only need to swap the parent theme. If you run into compatibility issues with your child theme, you may need to update any outdated templates within the child.
Kind regards
Hi everyone, this is not a support issue, but I need some guidance or assistance. I love this theme, but I’m not very good at design and layout. I have a clear idea of what I want, but I don’t know how to make it happen, especially with all the new features.
Where can I find a designer or theme editor who is an expert in this theme? I want to hire someone who knows how to use it well. Since Envato Studio is no longer available, I’m not sure where to look.
Thank you for your help.

Hello, I have a submenu with a dropdown, the issue is we have 2 level of drop downs so like this: - MAIN – Sub 1 – Sub 2
and the Sub 2 one is going off screen on around 1200 width. How can I make either: a) The white background container of the drop down smaller in width? (I’ve tried to change the width of .sf-menu>li ul from 20em to something different (as the container doesn’t have to be so wide), but the whole thing seems to break and then drop downs are one above other. Even if I change the fonts to smaller, the background container seems to stay the same size. It needs to not be made in mega menu, but within the salient theme.
b) Make the Sub 2 element position itself differently (not off screen).
Hey juvengle,
There should already be logic in place to align any dropdown which can’t fit on screen to the opposite right. Could you please share your actual page URL where that’s not occurring so that I can take a closer look into your setup?
Thanks in advance

Hi there. It seems that there’s an issue on Firefox whereby the off canvas menu doesn’t close when using ‘One Page Scroll Support (Animated Anchor Links)’.
The browser scrolls to the correct anchor link row on the page, but the menu remains open.
Is there a fix for this issue? (it seems to work correctly when using Chrome)
You can view an example here: http://s114866439.websitehome.co.uk/beautifuldigital/
If you click either ‘About’, ‘Clients’, or ‘Services’ in the menu, you will see what I’m referring to.
Thanks.
Hey speedofsound,
So far I have not been able to replicate that yet when testing in FireFox on your site. Could you please open a ticket on the support forum in regards with a short video recording of what you’re expiring + the browser version you’re on?
Thanks in advance
Unfortunately my support period has expired, so I’m unable to open a ticket, but if you are still able to still assist, the Firefox version is 102.11.0esr (64-bit) and here is a link to a video showing the issue: http://s114866439.websitehome.co.uk/beautifuldigital/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/bd-menu-issue-vid
Many thanks.
Hey speedofsound,
Here’s what I’ve seen on my end from Firefox on Mac and Windows (latest versions). Have you been able to replicate that on more than one machine yet?
Ok thanks. Looks like it must be my browser version then. Thanks so much for taking the time to check at your end. I will attempt to test it on another machine as suggested.
You’re welcome, speedofsound
I am struggling to find the simple dropdown thats user in this demo, https://themenectar.com/salient/ecommerce-ultimate/
Its currently giving this popping animation that I don’t want. Can you advise how to get rid of that please? https://www.dmaestheticsltd.co.uk/skin-treatments/Hey SayWhenDesign,
Are you referring to the megamenu entrance animation on your “Treatments” menu item vs the demo “Shop” megamenu item? If so, that animation is controlled via the “Header Dropdown Animation” field in the Salient options > Header navigation > Dropdown/megamenu tab.

Hi, any way to put the clients display carrousel option more quicker the transition? thanks
Hey dimage,
I would suggest switching to the “Carousel” page builder element instead of the “Clients Carousel” to get access to the “Autorotation Speed” option. If you stick with the Clients element, you would need to modify the related theme script to alter that.
Kind regards
hi thanks, but wich is this Carousel?
Hey dimage,
Here is the “Carousel” page builder element I’m referring to: https://themenectar.com/salient/elements/carousel/

Hello! I installed my theme without opting for Woocommerce but now I want to add it. I tried re-installing the theme but I still don’t see the plugin. Any recommendations on how to add WooCommerce at this point? Thank you!
Hey Ferlewels!
You can still install the WooCommerce straight from your plugins section in the WP admin anytime. Are you more so just trying to find the best way to import one of the Salient shop demos?
Kind regards
Hello! Thank you for your response! It got resolved by adding the woocommerce files directly into the plugin folder.
Glad to hear, Ferlewels
Hey Jrm57! The anchor calculation is likely getting the distance from the top on occasion before some of your dynamic content such as the review widgets are finished loading in. The change in your page height from those items loading in could be causing that. Unfortunately there’s no easy way to ensure that does not happen unless a new event is created to recalculate the anchor location after the completion of all of those items.
The latest upgrade of Wordpress broke my install—I cannot add background images or delete them. Different sections of the Page Builder are non-responsive.
Hey blazoneer,
Salient has been tested with the latest version of WordPress and it’s way we use for the live Salient demos. Have you verified that no third party plugins you may have active are causing the conflict? If so, please open a ticket on the support forum in regards
Thanks in advance

Self hosted video
Lightbox Trigger > YouTube Link
Video Preview Image > Added Featured Image
It’s not showing on the frontend, any suggestions? It was working 2 updated back, I thought you fixed it with the latest update – nope, still issue.
Hey Lateralus578,
If you’re trying to have a video Lightbox link without supplying any video to play in the preview area, you should use the video Lightbox element instead. That element uses a standard image for the preview and a video for the Lightbox link: https://themenectar.com/salient/elements/video-lightbox/
