Hey guys, I am having a weird margin/padding issue. After installing the theme with only very basic styling, it seems to add margin or padding somewhere, creating an unnecessary scroll bar. Any idea what is causing this?

No problem, mrittman :)

It looks like that may be related to the combination of your header settings. You can remove it for now by adding the following snippet into the custom CSS box located in the Salient options panel > General Settings > CSS/Script related tab:

.container-wrap {
  min-height: 0!important;
}

Kind regards

Wow, thank you so much! :)

You’re welcome, mrittman :)

Hello, is there a way to add an ACF custom field inside a Nectar Post Grid? Thanks.

Hey nacaodesign,

Yes, you could use the filter “nectar_post_grid_excerpt” to add any additional content to each post item. Here’s a code snippet example that queries for a custom post meta field and appends it to the display:

We are seeing a low score with INP, currently longer than 200ms. Is this something which will be addressed with an upcoming theme update or is it something we will need to action ourselves?

Hey MarcGarner, that metric won’t be actively used in rankings until March of 2024. But, yes, we’ll be taking it into consideration With future updates. However, it’s also possible that third party JS from plugins you may have active are causing that to be higher than normal as I’m seeing a range of 200-350ms in the base theme.

Kind regards

Hi Team,

Is there any CSS code to add in “General Settings” > “CSS/Script Related” > Custom CSS Code – to deactivate the WP (uploaded) logo being clickable? This does not work:
#site-logo a { pointer-events: none; cursor: default; }
Thanks.

Hey timtimtim,

You can use the CSS snippet
#header-outer #logo {
  pointer-events: none;
}

Kind regards

Thank you!!

You’re welcome, timtimtim :)

Hey guys just out of curiosity, will Salient ever get more advanced header customization options? Like a header builder similar to Avada?

Hey mrittman,

While we have preferred to provide a set of options to enable header simple yet powerful header customization, adding a traditional header builder is indeed an item on the wishlist—I’ve added your +1 for the idea :)

Kind regards

Yeah I think this has been requested for several years now. I can only assume it probably won’t happen at this point. That being said, I can certainly understand it being quite an undertaking, as the header content is built into the core of the salient theme.

Hey mrittman,

while it would be a large undertaking, it’s definitely not off of the table :)

Hi, ThemeNectar. I have a row set to Sticky On, with alignment to Bottom of Window. When this row reaches its position stickiness is disabled, which is good, however I would like the row to also no longer be visible in this state. That is, when it reaches its position on the page not only will it not be sticky, it will also disappear. Thanks

Hey webspacedesignuk,

Unfortunately, there’s no way to handle that without creating a custom JavaScript event to track the scroll position and then modify the display of your row once the bottom has been reached. Salient does not offer any built-in functionality to assist with that.

Kind regards

It is very weird but I can not edit some text blocks, if I change text there they just loading forever when others can be edited normally https://coffeewithdamian.com/?p=11727&preview=1&_ppp=783f1f1b1f

Hey Fixedman, it seems you’ve accidentally posted the same comment twice.

Yes, sorry

Hey Fixedman, if you’ve already ruled out a possible third party plugin conflict by temporarily deactivating any you may have active, please open a ticket on the support forum in regards.

Thanks in advance

I will do.

Thank you, Fixedman :)

Hi very simple question but I cannot seem to get the dimensions correct!

How do I create a Row with a single image on the top with text below without having the image be huge and disproportionate like the example here:

https://chrisgrenier.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/Screenshot-2023-07-11-at-1.55.32-PM.png

(Image used in that screenshot is 100×100px).

Thanks!

Hey svtmuscle!

When editing your image in the page builder, you can specify a custom max width to constrain the size: https://ibb.co/C6WysKT

Hi, I received a notification from Google that it will be replacing FID with Interaction to Next Paint (INP) as a Core Web Vital in March of 2024. Is this something that is fixed with the theme development, or is this something users will need to address? (sorry I’m not super knowledgeable with this stuff haha)

Hey mrittman!

We always keep page speed and specifically the core web vitals in mind with theme development. The Interaction to Next Paint (INP) metric is already available to see when testing in lighthouse, but it won’t officially replace the current FID until 2024 as you pointed out.

Kind regards

Thank you! :)

You’re welcome, mrittman :)

Hello, we are planning to buy this theme for a skincare project. Although it has many beautiful demo, we want to create a new design based on these two websites via figma and then change the design with wp-bakery provided with your theme. Do you think it’s achievable?

https://meetalleyoop.com/ https://snif.co/

Hey sak1b,

You could achieve something very similar using the page builder, however, you would need to do that manually as there are no pre-made templates like that currently.

Kind regards

To make some customization like that, will it make the theme slow?

Hey sak1b, no – customizing the design to suit your own needs will not affect the performance.

Kind regards

Since the theme update that included the wp bakery update i have not been able to add images to image gallery in wp bakery image will just not upload although its in media library

Hey giveitwebstudios, since I can’t replicate that locally and have not seen other reports of a similar issue, kindly open a ticket on the support forum in regards.

Thanks in advance

Please, have a look at this situation: go to this page https://tsundoku.ie/art-boook-fair-2023/programme/ and scroll down almost all the way to the bottom. Then refresh the page (I’m in Chrome on a mac), and when the page reloads scroll up. The navigation has been folded under the header. How to prevent this?

Hey quomo,

Since you have custom multi-line content in your header, you’ll need to supply a hint for the height of that to prevent this from occurring. Here’s a snippet which should fix it:

@media only screen and (min-width: 999px) {
body #header-space {
  height: 270px;
}
}

Kind regards

Sir, I am interested in this theme. I would like to discuss few things before purchase. Please revert back to me. If you could send email id that would be helpful.

I haven’t purchased this theme yet. I am thinking of purchasing it. However, i have few queries before purchase which I can’t post it here in public. So, if you can revert back to me at santhosh.hn1988 @ gmail.com would be helpful

Hey santhosh_hn, you can reach out via the contact form on my author page in regards to start that private conversation.

Kind regards

I have mailed you using contact form last 3 days ago, I didn’t get response. So, today also I have mailed. Waiting for favorable response at the earliest.

Hai, how to move menu icon persist in mobile in the right to the left, and menu move to the right like in this picture https://prnt.sc/HmPw16Jbryc_ (in certain page only) for an example on this page https://www.cidb.gov.my/icw-2023-international-construction-week/

Hey shaky512,

Since this is related to the same continued set of questions you’ve been posting recently to modify the header on specific pages, please open ticket on the support forum in regards and we would be glad to continue assisting with these CSS modifications.

Thanks in advance

Hello team! I would like to know if I can create a pop up with a form inside (I will use contact form). Clicking on a button or a link will show the pop up. I don’t think I’ve seen any elements made by salient, is that correct?

If this is not possible, can you tell me an alternative.

Thank you very much for the help.

Hey alandres!

Salient does not have a built-on popup element at this time, but you can use a free plug-in to handle that functionality such as https://wordpress.org/plugins/popup-maker/

Kind regards

Hello, I had problems with this plugin popup market and I found this wpb popup for c.f 7

I hope someone helps. Thanks

Hi,

I’m having an issue with the absolute positioning of images.

The desktop value is overruling the tablet value. See screenshot for example.

For tablet we wanna switch from left to right. So for left we insert the value “auto” and right we insert “40px”. As you can see in the screenshot the left tablet value gets overruled / overwritten by the desktop value.

I was able to reproduce this issue on multiple images / instances.

Could you please look into this? Thanks in advance.

Screenshot: https://prnt.sc/UoM3CiXVEPIH

Hey WMTD,

This will be corrected in the upcoming release. If you’d like to check it out early and join the beta program, feel free to reach out via the contact form on my author page in regards.

Kind regards

Awesome, thank you!

You’re welcome, WMTD :)
