Hello! How to add elements such as https://themenectar.com/salient/elements/scroll-revealed-text/ when I am using some of your demo theme? Where do I need to go to insert select them?

Hey visualpaint,

The scroll revealed text is an option within the “Split Line Heading” element. You can find an example of that in use in the Salient Studio template library. The template is called “Scroll Opacity Reveal Text”: https://ibb.co/7yM805P

Kind regards

Dear Salient, For some reason, I can’t get the nectar slider to be full height. The row is full height and even goes under the navigation. I tested it with a background image for the row, but the nectar slider doesn’t go full height. What am I doing wrong?

I have Flexible Slider Height turned on

Hey joshuabbutler,

You’ll need to change your row to “full width background” or “in container” and then configure the slider itself to be fullscreen with the following settings: https://ibb.co/xHPTFbt

Kind regards

Ok, I see, you have the content width constrained in the row, but then when that happens, in the nectar slider the menu options change and there is an option to push past the bounds to be full width. Thanks

Hello,

are you planning to add more prebuilt websites ?

Hey matvej,

Yes, we’ve been consistently adding demos throughout the years and will continue to do so. If you have any specific category you’re hoping to see, feel free to let us know!

Hello, I have a problem with h3, when I put a title in h3 it comes out well on computer but on mobile the h3 is not taken into account, visually the h3 is the same size as the text (only on mobile)

Hey NADHIRCHAOUI, You can adjust your general responsive font sizing in the Salient options panel > typography > responsive settings tab.

Kind regards

I updated my theme and all of my settings were lost. Logo gone, colors gone, literally everything. What gives? How can I fix this without redoing everything?

Hi – I have been in contact with my hosting provider and they were able to fix the apostrophe rendering but can’t figure out why the database change would have affected fonts/styling, etc. We have escalated this issue internally for a thorough investigation.

They’ve been reviewing server logs,database collations, and character sets to identify the root cause of these issues.

They asked if you can share any findings they might have when it comes to this issue? Your insights could be extremely valuable as they continue to investigate the root cause.

Hey vaughanmatt,

Salient updates don’t alter anything related to the database—are you sure that when this error occurred the only thing you updated was the theme itself and nothing else? e.g. WordPress, Plugins, Server settings etc.

We did not update anything on our end.

Hi I think there is a bug – on mobile the post header has more space at the bottom then at the top so the title appears off center see screengrab here: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/lsxd43b02xj43z1os9rr5/627d7aeb-78a5-425c-8ff4-8f9216ae666b.jpg?rlkey=oh79adipncasa68ol1jslb1kr&dl=0

Is there a fix for this or have I missed something?

or is there anyway to globally disable the post headers?

Thanks Elliot

Hey Elliot,

It looks like that alignment issue is being cause by the CSS you have to remove the category. You can add in the following snippet to correct it:
@media only screen and (min-width: 1px) and (max-width: 999px) {
.single-post #ajax-content-wrap #page-header-bg {
    min-height: 200px;
}
}

Alternatively, if you want to remove the entire post header globally you could use:

.single-post #page-header-wrap {
  display: none;
}

Cheers

​Hey,

I have a strange problem with my new template while using Salient. Header transparent doesn’t work properly (header forced to be transparent in the Salient panel + on the specific page). Furthermore, I have a dev mode enable which I do not activated. Is this related or two separate issues ?

Thanks in advance !

Hey williamchardon!

1. Are you using Yoast breadcrumbs? If so, that will override the transparent header effect option. Here are the Yoast docs on that feature.

2. The dev mode badge will display when you have WP_DEBUG set to true in your wp-config.php file—It won’t cause any rendering issues.

Kind regards

Hi there. How can I remove the category labels from appearing above the title on blog posts? I have followed the instructions in these two posts https://themenectar.ticksy.com//ticket/3496493/, https://themenectar.ticksy.com//ticket/3379419/ , but cannot make the solution work for my site. This is the link to the post that I am trying to make this solution work for https://impactinvestinghub.ca/esg-impact-standards/

Because it is in so many categories it appears badly, especially on mobile

Hey VI3Hub,

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:

.single-post #page-header-bg .inner-wrap > a {
    display: none;
}

Kind regards

Hi guys,

When is the next big release planned?

Please plan for the next update: 1. 360° images integration 2. 360° videos integration 3. 3D content integration

Thanks in advance!

Hey vik_,

There is no release date yet for the next major release yet. Currently, we’re working on the upcoming minor release which will include some smaller features, bug fixes, and the latest version of WPBakery.

Kind regards

Hi there!

I am hoping you can help me.

We have created a one-page website which uses your theme Salient and uses the Salient ‘Fullscreen Rows’ feature to allow a nice transition between sections on Desktop. On mobile, we have toggled the option to switch this off.

Overall, this works well across desktop and on mobile. However, when testing on iPad portrait on Safari, we notice the fullscreen rows are still enabled. However, when testing on a different iPad browser such as Google Chrome, this is disabled. This also does not happen when viewing on a smaller screen size.

This indicates there is a bug on Safari, when viewing on a portrait tablet.

Upon further investigation, we can see on mobile the class ‘using-mobile-browser’ is automatically added to the when viewing on a mobile device. When viewing on Safari, where the issue is happening, this class is not being added. I suspect this is the reason it is not disabling on Safari but is disabling correctly in Google Chrome.

Please can you look into this and advise.

Many thanks!

Hey andy33333054, feel free to reach out via the contact form on my author page in regards.

Thanks! I’ve just sent you a message via the form :)

Thanks andy33333054, I’ll be reaching out to you soon in regards.

​Hi there, I have a client site which they are struggling to edit/create new portfolio items because the Project Configuration and Project Header Settings are not displaying the buttons/options. For example, we can see ‘Full Width Portfolio Item Layout’ but then not see the options to the right which means they cannot set the correct options for the page​. I can’t figure out why these aren’t working all of a sudden. My support has expired but this was all fine within the support period – why would it change? Any ideas? Thank you!

Hey Mercer_Design,

Are you using the latest version of the theme (v16.0.x) and Salient Portfolio plugin (1.7.5)? If so, please reach out via the contact form on my author page in regards so I can take a look at the setup.

Thanks in advance

Good day, is it possible to disable full height on a row on mobile? Keep it on desktop but disable on mobile?

Hey aglet,

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:

body .wpb_row.vc_row-o-full-height, 
body .wpb_row.vc_row-o-full-height > .col.span_12 {
  height: auto!important;
  min-height: 0!important;
}

Kind regards

Thank you

You’re welcome, aglet :)

HI there! I would like to change the background for the portfolio header and the header text color. How do I do that? Here is an image to show you what I am talking about. https://ibb.co/nz9D1dS

Hey visualpaint, when editing any project, you can use the “Project Header Settings” metabox towards the bottom to specify coloring for the BG and text. If you would like further assistance with this, kindly open a ticket on the support forum in regards.

Cheers

thank you!

You’re welcome, visualpaint :)

Why would fa-instagram and fa-vimeo randomly stop showing the character associated while the other social media icons work?

I can go around FontAwesome, but just to know.

Hey quomo, I would suspect another plugin is loading a different version of the library in your setup and causing a conflict. However, I would need to see your URL in order to point you in the right direction.

Kind regards

Hi guys,

Question: Where can i change the text of the blog items? Now it is ‘read more’. But can i change this tekst in ‘lees meer’?

Hey ruim_denkers,

You can translate that string by using your desired translation plugin as documented here: https://themenectar.com/docs/salient/translations/

The string will be located either in the “salient” or “salient-core” text domain depending on which element you’re using to display your posts.

Kind regards

Hi, does the theme support WP network install?

Hey aomeda, Yes, Salient supports WP Multisite.

Kind regards

Thank you.

You’re welcome, aomeda :)

Hi I’m trying to combine a transparent navigation header with a full width nectar slider on the home page, but it keeps cropping the height of slider by the height of the header, therefore leaving a black space.

How do I make the slider 100% with the image behind the navigation.

https://karlbenzkitchens.co.uk/

Hey alexbirks,

Try to keep your Nectar Sliders in the same row by placing them in two 1/1 columns. That way they both should utilize the sizing for the top-level row, and you can also control the responsive display settings (hidden vs. visible on device) rather than adding custom CSS rules. e.g. https://ibb.co/KF1kYMn

Nailed it. Thank you very much.

You’re welcome, alexbirks :)

Hi, some of my social media icons in the top nav aren’t showing. could you advise how to fix please: https://pws.arcadedigital.co.za/services/

Hey tricks28,

It looks like your plugin sticky-floating-forms is causing that by including a different version of FontAwesome than Salient uses. You would need to dequeue that third-party FontAwesome stylesheet, if you can’t disable the plugin all together.

Kind regards

Thank you :)

You’re welcome, tricks28 :)

Hi, I have about 2000 music reviews from my old site I have now deleted but in google searches the posts still show up then go to a 404 page that is a stock Salient one that sent everyone to your homepage … (great for you I get!) how can I change this 404 page or at least the direction of the return home bit that already exists on the stock one? thanks

Hey djandygriff,

The standard 404 template provides a button that leads to your own home page, unless you’ve imported a demo uses the page builder to create the 404 (currently only the Mag demo). In that case, you can edit the 404 template in your Global Sections: https://themenectar.com/docs/salient/page-builder-global-sections/

Kind regards

thank you

You’re welcome, djandygriff :)

I normally use a WP clone/stage script in my server, but it falied with Salient. I didn’t get any error in the process, but the staging site has not fetched the production site’s settings, and it created widgets at will….
is there anything I should know when cloning Salient?

Hey Eluvial,

There shouldn’t be anything special to consider when cloning a site that uses Salient. However, the lack of errors being logged would make it it difficult to pinpoint what went wrong with your specific script. Can you please open a ticket on the support forum in regards with your script so we can take a closer look?

Thanks in advance
