Hello, Please I was hired to take over from a previous designer who refused to release the access to the envato account where I can open a ticket. I am trying to change the hover text color of Header Button with Animated Extra Color Gradient from black to white but didn’t find where to do it. Please help.

See screenshot here: https://ibb.co/ctjTyPQ

I really love your theme and I am considering purchasing my own license but for the sake of this project, please help with either where to customize or css code to make this change.

Thanks

I did already and it still didn’t affect it. However, when I changed the Header Dark Text Color to white (At the Transparent Header Effect), it worked but then, all the navigation menu text color on transparent header all turned to white causing another problem.

https://ibb.co/MGyG8h4 https://ibb.co/3yxTQyF

I only want it to affect only the Header Button with Animated Extra Color Gradient.

Please help look into this

I guess this is happening because I want the change on a Transparent Header and the background of the page is also white. We used the Saas template. I can’t also change the main navigation menu hover color on transparent.

Hey oltimal, please reach out via the contact form on my author page in regards with your existing license information so that we can try to verify your purchase based on your previous design information.

Bit of an odd question – but is there any way to hide a page section if a specific product is added to the cart?

Example: If Product ID 123 is in cart hide Section #456.

Hey Andrew_McNelis,

That would require a snippet in your child theme. Essentially, you would need to check what products are in your cart, and then output a CSS rule to hide the section if the product is found to be added in your cart.

Kind regards

Hi, is there a way to disable the category header image overlay? by default it looks like its set to an opaque black but we’d like to remove the overlay if possible!

Cheers

Hey Micatuca!

Adding the following snippet into the custom CSS box located in the Salient options panel > General Settings > CSS/Script related tab should remove that:

body.archive .page-header-bg-image:after {
 display: none;
}

Kind regards

We’re using the new post loops element. Is there a way to have the posts display aligned left when there’s only one rather than centred? See part way down – https://www.foodieflavours.com/shop/flavours/chocolate-2/organic-peppermint-extract/

Hey MarcGarner,

You would need to change from the “carousel” mode to the “grid” mode to get that functionality as of now. However, I’ve noted the idea to add alignment options for the carousel in that scenario.

Kind regards

I’ve updated yesterday to v.16. since the update none of the sites show transparent navigation even though it’s forced. The homepage works somehow. What happened with the update?Whats the fix?

Hey csergemedia,

If you’re using Yoast and have the breadcrumb feature enabled, that will now override the transparent header effect option. This change was added because, in most setups, the breadcrumbs were appearing under the header navigation while the transparent header effect was still active. You can opt to remove that by using the following snippet in your child theme functions.php file: https://pastebin.com/40EUTQ9P

Kind regards

@ThemeNectar Thanks a lot! another possible Solution is to open the Yoast plugin, go to Settings -> Advanced -> Breadcrumbs and uncheck the box.

You’re welcome, csergemedia :)

Cheers

Hi,

My website auditpartnersafrica.com is currently showing some error messages. Can you please look into it for me? The admin login page is also showing FATAL ERROR.

Thank you

Hey Prince_Appiah,

That issue would only show if you upgraded your version of PHP to 8.0+ and have not updated Salient in a while. V14 of Salient added PHP 8 compatibility a couple of years ago (the current release is v16.0.5) https://themenectar.com/changelogs/salient.html

You can update Salient using any of the methods described in the documentation here.

Noted. Thanks

You’re welcome, Prince_Appiah :)

Theme constantly has issues and breaks. only 6 months of support is not fair. I feel ripped off.

Hey knightrider1, An active support license is not required for reporting a bug, if you suspect you’ve identified an issue with the theme.

Salient is consistently maintained, and updates are provided for free. I have not come across any prior emails from your username or any comments that document what you’re referring to. However, feel free to reach out via the contact form on my author page if you’d like to report a problem.

Kind regards

Hi, is it possible to link to a specific tab on a page using row id? I’d like to link to the 4th tab of 6 tabbed content. essentially the 4th page of my tabbed content. Thanks

Hey tricks28,

Can you kindly share your page URL so that I can take a look at your tabbed settings to provide the correct guidance?

Thanks in advance

Hi, I’d like to link to the content on the last tab “Accomodation & Logistics” on this page: https://nicola.devlabs.co.za/2023-conference/

Hey tricks28,

You can link directly to tabs by adding tab=tab-name in your URL e.g. https://nicola.devlabs.co.za/2023-conference/?tab=enhancing-our-sustainabilitiy

However, you’ll need to remove the & sign from your tab name if you wish to link to Accommodation & Logistics, as that will prevent the linking behavior to finding the tab.

Kind regards

Can’t find out how to make CTA BUTTON non clickable. Adding # to link section just sends me on top of site. I like some CTA animations and want to use CTA buttons like tags or bullet points, but also want them to be non clickable.

Hey raffess,

As long as you’re not using the “text reveal wave” or “curved arrow” style, you should be able to have the animation persist if you change the rule to:

.no-pointer-events .link_text {
  pointer-events: none;
}

Still sends me on top of the site if i set # (anchor links are available on my site) in link section or reloads the page if i leave link section blank. Same happening if i edit css via browser in main salient pages out of my site.

The only solution i found way so far – if i set ## (double hashtags) in link section of CTA button – it doesnt do anything, but still in the bottom left corner of my browser (firefox) i can see that this hover action was made for link clicking.

Hello team! The footer part does not appear, I have it as a global section, I have followed the steps to design it and that it affects the entire web, but it still does not appear.

You can see, the link

Thank you

Hey alandres!

There is no conditional option built in to limit the display a global section to a specific page ID currently, however you could handle that via a filter in your child theme. If you’d like further assistance with that, kindly open a ticket on the support forum in regards

Cheers

Thanks team!! great job.

You’re welcome, alandres :)

Hi, I would like to use new demos. But I cannot see and import new demos on Salient Demo Importer. And I got to know that I should update that Salient Demo Importer ver1.4 to ver 1.6 but I cannot update that plugin. I cannot see any sign to update that plugin on plugin menu. Please tell me what I should do in order to use new demos.

Hey jae1you, the update for the Salient demo importer will show as available as long as you’re on the latest version of Salient (v16+). https://themenectar.com/docs/salient/updating-salient/

Kind regards

What if I wanted to apply a “Tooltip” as a hover over the text? Technically you have it built but just for an image see https://themenectar.com/docs/salient/page-builder-overview/ and I’d like it if you could wishlist functionality just like https://getshortcodes.com/ docs/tooltip/ – I don’t want to use another plugin because of one small functionality. Thanks!

Hey romankac,

Your photos will only be placed in a Lightbox gallery and utilize the left/right arrows if you use the Salient Image Gallery element or legacy WP gallery element. However, I’ve noted to also trigger that behavior for the Gutenberg gallery block in the near future.

Kind regards

I created a WP gallery (the number of columns does not matter) in the classic posts editor. However, on the frontend, only the current image is displayed bigger in the lightbox and there are not right/left arrows.I also tried disabling all plugins. Same result.Check it out for yourself at https://www.romankacerek.cz/novy/test/

Hey romankac, feel free to reach out via the contact form on my author page if you’d like early access to the compatibility fix prior to the next minor release.

Kind regards

I’m using the Product E-commerce skin but want to switch to Ecommerce-Robust skin. I find it easier to install the demo then update the demo pages to my liking but what are some best practices to change the skin on my existing site? I would like it to match the Ecommerce-Robust layout and font stylings, etc. Thank you!

Hey ehong33234,

You could opt to import the “Theme Option Settings” only if you didn’t want the full demo: https://ibb.co/HrKSvJj

However, if you’re interested in getting the pages associated with the demo, you’ll need to also tick the box for “Demo Content”.

Your existing content will remain after doing the import, however, the next content will be imported.

Kind regards

If I do this and it messes up the site, can I just go back and import the previous “theme option settings only” to revert back to the previous design or what do you recommend I do as a precaution?

Hey ehong33234,

You can export your current theme options in the Salient options > Import/Export tab. This way you can always import them back in to revert.

Kind regards

hello.I use e-commerce ultimate theme and i wanna ask for how can i add product for shops? i could not find please help Thanks beforehand

Hey elxanabas6,

You can review the documentation on adding/managing products in WooCommerce here: https://woocommerce.com/document/managing-products

Kind regards

Hello team!

I would like translate just this text, because I have my WP spanish.

Text on search input: “Type what you’re looking for”

Regards

Hey alandres,

You could enter custom text for that area directly in the Salient options panel > header navigation > header search tab via the field “Search Placeholder Text”.

Kind regards

Thank you. ‍♂️

You’re welcome, alandres :)

Hi ThemeNectar,

Before I dive to deep into things, I wanted to reach out and ask if something similar to the example below is possible to design and create with Salient.

https://dribbble.com/shots/3268934-Split-Screen-Navigation-Concept/attachments/3268934-Split-Screen-Navigation-Concept?mode=media

Please let me know. Many thanks.

Best, Alan

Hey Alan,

The design of the two pages shown in that dribbble shot are relatively possible to recreate using Salient. However, there are no built-in options to achieve that transition between the pages.

Kind regards

Hi. How can i have such modals on pages ? https://imgur.com/a/b31FvXU

Hey rivija, Salient does not a built-in modal element so you would need to use a plugin such as https://wordpress.org/plugins/popup-maker/

Kind regards

Hey! Have a nice day! Is it possible to add falling tags like here through plugin or smth https://sendpotion.com/ – scroll a bit and you will see falling tags.

Hey raffess!

There’s no built-in functionality to achieve that via HTML elements—you would need to recreate it via a video background at this current time.

Hope you have a good day as well!

I want to create a flipbox that looks like this: https://snipboard.io/qSrVix.jpg

How can I achieve that? or maybe it Is possible to just make a inner column flippable?

They above content is mostly written within

styled elements +1 font awesome custom raw html code.

But when I put those inside the front box content editor, it doesn’t display.

The perfect would be for the front box content to use the same editor as the back content (is there a way to enable that with some modifications? if so, how?).

Thanks for any hints

Hey juvengle,

There’s no way to have more than one HTML enabled editor per element, so unfortunately that can’t be enabled for the front of the flip box.

You’ll likely need to modify the actual template file via your child theme: https://themenectar.com/docs/salient/overriding-salient-wpbakery-element-template-files-through-a-child-theme/

Which template file would I need to modify? is there an easy way to make multiple flip boxes templates? As I need to create few i similar styling but with different icons in front and different text in the back.

Hey juvengle,

The file is located at wp-content/plugins/salient-core/includes/vc_templates/nectar_flip_box.php

The best way to achieve it would be utilize the existing icon option on the front and modify the style of it to your specifications. The “More” button could then be hardcoded into the template file itself.

Kind regards

Hello, I am interested if there is non Wordpress version available? I would like to have HTML version only. Is it possible?

Hey pixello,

There are no plans for an HTML only version of Salient at this time.

Kind regards

OK, and what about including that HTML version along with Wordpress version? I am going to buy the theme anyways, but I would really need the HTML version as well. Possible to get?

Hey pixello, there are also no plans to bundle that directly with the theme package, however if you purchase a license you would be permitted to use the design in a static context if desired.
