Hi guys,

question: Is it possible to start with a full logo in the header, and as soon as you scroll down only the logo appears.

Small example: https://wolfstreet.nl/

Or something like that. Cheers!

Or starting with a background header, and when i scroll it turns transparant? IS this possible to use two different logo’s?

Hey ruim_denkers,

I would recommend using the Transparent header option but specifying the same coloring for the text and leave the only difference being the logo.

Kind regards

I notice a bug when trying to use “Page Full Screen Rows”. The issue is my footer will not work with this enabled. I am using footer from “Global Sections”. Please have a look into this.

Hey BlackWat3r, the page full screen rows option disables the Footer area by default. You would need to add it into that page via the global section element inside of a row at the end.

Kind regards

Hello & have a nice day! It would be quite cool if in the future updates you will add tabs to Custom css – it’s quite exhausting to search for cpecific css even when you add descriptions. Tabs would be really pretty much useful for this section.

Hey raffess,

Thanks for the feature request :)

Cheers

When adding products via the quick view there is no confirmation that the product has been added to cart. This causes customers to repeatedly click add to cart later to find lots of the product in their cart.

Is there supposed to be some confirmation of adding to cart via the quick view. I believe there is a cog animation on the shop page but not on the woocommerce product carousel on our homepage – https://www.foodieflavours.com

Hey MarcGarner, That issue will be corrected in the next minor release. If you’d like early access, feel free to reach out via the contact form on my author page in regards.

Hi, when I embed TikTok videos a white background shows in the container behind the video. this doesnt happen on other themes. here is the page: https://tinyurl.com/mu9pf5tx

Under the headline “Multicultural weddings” you will see the TikTok video

Hey djb19,

I just confirmed that the same white edges will display when using the core WordPress theme (Twenty Twenty-Two) when adding a TikTok embed. However, you could specify a custom width for your embed by adding the following snippet into the custom CSS box located in the Salient options panel > General Settings > CSS/Script related tab:

body .tiktok-embed {
  width: 300px;
}

Kind regards

I am having an issue where the Woocommerce Products element is not displaying correctly on the home page. They used to display identical to the category pages Please see here https://prettyplease.ie/

Hey Silentbob90,

Please temporarily disable your CSS minfiication from your active performance plugin so that I can take a closer look.

Thanks in advance

Apologies try now.

Hey Silentbob90,

It looks like your home page is missing the standard WooCommerce stylesheets, which should be enqueued by default from the plugin i.e.
wp-content/plugins/woocommerce/assets/css/woocommerce.css
wp-content/plugins/woocommerce/assets/css/woocommerce-layout.css
Etc.

Have you ensured that no snippets from your child theme or other plugins may be modifying that behavior?

I am trying to setup two colors of navigation for light and dark.

- First – with black and blue logo and light blue background header - Second – white and black background header

Seems like it doesn't work anymore?

The transparent header navigation color doesn’t seem to change between dark and light options when selected.

Can you give me steps on how can I do that? I’ve never had trouble setting this up there might be something that changed that I need to do that I haven’t been able to pick upon.

Hey juvengle,

No additional steps are required besides specifying the usual “Transparent Header Navigation Color” in the Header Navigation metabox. I would need to see your URL in order to help you troubleshoot that. Kindly open a ticket on the support forum in regards.

Hi Phil, hope you’re doing great. I’m sorry to bother you again but I have one small issue left that has been there for some time and I can’t figure out where it’s coming from. On all the portfolio items with a transparent header the logo seems a bit off/higher than the menu and how it is on the rest of the site. Strangely it only happens on the mobile view… on desktop everything is fine.

Do you think it’s a bug or something on my side that I broke? Here’s an example page but happens on all portfolio pages: https://www.gurskydesign.com/work/1und1-app-icons/

Thank you again in advance so much for your help ❤️

Hey TheChuckOne!

I would need to take a closer look at the backend to see why the may be occurring. However, you can also prevent it by adding the following snippet into the custom CSS box located in the Salient options panel > General Settings > CSS/Script related tab:

@media only screen and (max-width: 1000px) {
.single-portfolio #header-outer[data-format=centered-menu-bottom-bar] #top #logo .starting-logo {
 top: 10px;
}
}

Kind regards

Hi Phil,

thank you so much! It fixed the issue. Now it’s perfect :)

Quick question about a dark mode. Are you planning on adding one some time down the line? I was just wondering if I should get a plugin for that or wait for your native approach :)

Thanks again.

You’re welcome, TheChuckOne :)

While it’s an item on the wishlist, there’s no ETA for that functionality so I would recommend getting a plugin to handle it for now.

Kind regards

Hello,

I created a Sticky Media Section that has a picture on half of the page and a Carousel WooCommerce Products on the other half. Using z-index, I set the products to be scrolled from under the side image, but how can I make the scroll of the products not visible in the red part that I specified in the attached image. In such a way that the photo on the side has a large white border around it and the scroll of the products passes under that area and cannot be seen.

https://s6.uupload.ir/files/untitled_v5t5.jpg

https://chamedoncenter.ir/test

Hey Jabbarpour,

You would need to change the sizing of the nectar-sticky-media-section__media-wrap to have padding, be 100vh and use a BG color to hide the carousel. Then the inner media would need to be sized down to keep the same relative proportions as you current have.

Kind regards

Hello,

How can I align the buttons at the bottom of each column? https://keesystem.maj.mc/contact/

I try this but doesn’t seems to work :

.equal-height-buttons { display: flex; justify-content: center; align-items: flex-end; flex: 1 1 0; }

while browsing the comments I managed to find

.bottom-aligned-buttons >.span_12> .wpb_column >.vc_column-inner >.wpb_wrapper { display: flex; flex-direction: column; height: 100%; }

.bottom-aligned-buttons .wpb_text_column { padding-bottom: 30px; }

.bottom-aligned-buttons >.span_12> .wpb_column >.vc_column-inner >.wpb_wrapper .nectar-button { margin: auto auto 30px!important; }

How can I ensure that the button is not aligned to the centre but to the left like the text?

Hey MAJMonaco,

You can change the rule in that snippet from
.bottom-aligned-buttons >.span_12> .wpb_column >.vc_column-inner >.wpb_wrapper .nectar-button {
    margin: auto auto 30px!important;
}

To

.bottom-aligned-buttons >.span_12> .wpb_column >.vc_column-inner >.wpb_wrapper .nectar-button {
    margin: 0 auto 0 0!important;
}

Kind regards

Hello, I am using recent posts element, with a classic enhanced style, I am looking to add a “more” text button into it, in which file I can find it so that I can edit it in? Thanks

also, how do I change that elements title from H3 to H4?

Hey juvengle,

The output for the recent posts exists at “wp-content/plugins/salient-core/includes/vc_templates/recent_posts.php” You can override it via your child theme by following the documentation here: https://themenectar.com/docs/salient/overriding-salient-wpbakery-element-template-files-through-a-child-theme/

You would also need to make the modification for the heading within that file.

Kind regards

Is Salient compatible with Advanced Coupons? https://advancedcouponsplugin.com

We’re facing an issue with the add product feature. We’re offering a free product with a minimum spend this is auto applied. By default the customer cannot change the quantity of this free product, the quantity selector is hidden in the checkout and on the cart page. However there is a quantity selector on the slide out cart. Meaning customers can add as many free products to cart as they like.

Please confirm if there’s a way to fix this or if a Salient update is needed. We’re on version 16.0.5

Hey MarcGarner,

I have not tested that plugin. However, Salient does support the native WooCommerce “Sold individually” option for the mini cart quantity buttons, and also applies the default WooCommerce filter “woocommerce_widget_cart_item_quantity” for that output so it would ultimately be up the plying to utilize one of those options to remove the markup when needed. I would need to see the plugin code in order to see what approach they’re using. Feel free to open a ticket on the support forum in regards

Hello. I have a query, the site changed domain and when moving the site, I lost all the outgoing configuration. Where is all the data stored? Especially the custom CSS, I thought it was going to be kept in the database.

Hey mirazoqui,

All of the Salient options, including the custom CSS box, are stored in the DB inside of the wp_options table in the “salient_redux” field.

Without seeing your migration script, it’s hard to say why that would not have been imported over. However, if you would like us to take a look, please open a ticket on the support forum in regards

Thanks in advance

Hallo Salient, Hope you are good. Which template part do I need to change in order to add “published by” before the author part? I would need this on all blog lists + archives.

Hey H0kus41, sorry for the misunderstanding.

If you’re using the regular blog and not the post loop builder to create your blog / archive display, the templates files are located at
salient/includes/partials/blog/styles/YOUR_CHOSEN_STYLE

That is perfect! I really did my best, but where can I find the “recommended for you” blog roll? Aka the 3 blogs underneath an article? I would love to add that snippet there aswell. Sorry for the many questions, You help me alot!

No worries, H0kus41 :)

That output is generated in nectar_related_post_display inside salient/nectar/helpers/blog.php

Cheers

Hi guys,

Question:

Is it possible to make the header (menu bar) on phone and tablet not transparent? On the desktop version we do see the (hamburger) menu. But not on other devices because of the white background color. It would be neater if we only give the tablet and phone version a background? Or do you have another advice? The design is made in such a way that the header is transparent.

https://design.ruimdenkers.nl/vad

Many thanks!

And maybe a bug?

If I post a news item and I choose Post type: Link Then they disappear from my news page (archive).

https://design.ruimdenkers.nl/vad/nieuws/

Hey ruim_denkers!

1. You can make that change by adding the following snippet into the custom CSS box located in the Salient options panel > General Settings > CSS/Script related tab: https://pastebin.com/SWr1YiEs

2. Please open a ticket on the support forum in regards so that we can take a closer look at your setup.

Cheers

Hey ! I would like to use the actual header on your last template with the color rectangle behind the title. How can I do this please ?

Hey Jrm57!

If you’re referring to the header on the archives here, you can find the new Post Header design in the Salient options > Blog > Archive header: https://ibb.co/Htn7Fx2

If you’re also wondering how the header navigation bar is inside of that contained layout, you can activate that in the Salient options > Header navigation > layout & content related with the “Header Size”

Kind regards

Hi, is it possible to exclude only the featured image from specific category (eg. quote category) in post loop? If I don’t set a preview image, I’ll see the white space without the image. I would like to keep the category in the listing, but remove the spaces without featured image. Unfortunately, I can’t, because the post loop doesn’t contain any class for categories by which I could specify only certain CSS. Thank you.

Hey romankac,

You can use the following CSS to alter that:

.nectar-post-grid-wrap[data-style=content_under_image] [data-has-img=false] .nectar-post-grid-item-bg {
  display: none;
}

Kind regards

It works! Thank you!

You’re welcome, romankac :)

Hi there! I created a custom post type and i display the post formats with: add_post_type_support( ‘jobs’, ‘post-formats’ );

Unfortunately, the Salient options will not load in my CPT ? Like here: https://imgur.com/a/qUFsmEg

When I select “Link” in my CPT the Salient Link Settings wouldn´t appear.

I also searched in your developer docs online, nothing found.

Hope for your reply, Alex

Hey Alex,

Those post format metabox options are currently limited to the standard Wordpress post type. (/wp-content/plugins/salient-core/includes/admin/post-meta.php) However, I’ve noted the idea to allow them to be called from CPTs as well.

Kind regards

Please yes,thanks!

Hello, ThemeNectar! How can I subscribe to your support service, the salient theme on my site only support php 7, I want to upgrade to newer version of php and I want you guys to handle this for me through support service, once I tried upgraded, the site was showing blank. Thank you

Hey adesojiade1,

You’ll need to upgrade to the latest version of Salient by using any of the methods described in the documentation: https://themenectar.com/docs/salient/updating-salient/

Kind regards

Hi there, are there any plans to add a ‘Continue Shopping’ button? After a user adds an item to cart, the cart pop up shows, with the View Cart, or Checkout. Would be great to replace the view cart with continue shopping instead.

Hey chelseacarson08,

That was not an item on the wishlist, but I’ve now added it as an idea :)

Kind regards
