Hey there, I am using the theme with Yoast SEO Plugin and I am just using the simple Yoast insert “Excerpt” to pick up content for the meta description.
Although in the preview I am seeing that its picking up code instead of content like this “[vc_row type=”full_width_background” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default”” as the meta description.
Is this going to be like that in search results? Have you or other users encountered this? Is there a fix for this? Does your theme not work with Yoast Plugin?
Thanks in advance!
Hey msherstenka,
The “excerpt” helper variable from Yoast will default to picking up to first words found in the content, which when using WPBakery will be shortcodes, when you don’t supply an actual excerpt. Yoast doesn’t process shortcodes, so you’ll need to use a snippet in your child theme to force that if desired: https://pastebin.com/z8usis8x
See the following issue where this is discussed with Yoast https://github.com/Yoast/wordpress-seo/issues/6288
Kind regards
Sorry that confused me a bit. I don’t want it to pick up shortcodes that was the whole point of reaching out. That pastebin screenshot is to show the shortcode code in meta descriptions? Or its to stop from yoast producing the shortcode codes in the meta description?
I’ve used other themes and have never had this issue. All I want is to pick up the first paragraph of content or a snippet of the content for the excerpt, how do I set it up for this? No shortcodes as its doing.
Hey msherstenka, the snippet I provided in the pastebin is from the GitHub thread linked at the bottom of my comment which will allow the shortcodes to be parsed for the final description output. Within that GitHub issue, you’ll see that that the developers of Yoast officially stated that they don’t parse shortcodes from page builders: https://github.com/Yoast/wordpress-seo/issues/6288#issuecomment-585140186
Hello! I hope you’re well. Please check out https://evergladesparadise.com/. I want to make the logo and menu invisible when the page loads and only visible when the user scrolls. My aim is for the initial image in the nectarslider to be unobstructed by the logo and menu.
FYI, I got rid of the logo by using a transparent pixel for the starting logo in the transparent header menu. But I still need to make the menu invisible on load.
Hey marcfest!
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:
#header-outer.transparent {
opacity: 0;
}
Kind regards
Works perfectly. Thank you.
You’re welcome, marcfest

Hi, I have downloaded a fresh download from here and when I try to upload the zip file to WordPress I get the message – “The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet.”
Anyone have any ideas please?
Thanks
Hey linthorpeevolution,
That issue will occur when attempting to upload the main .zip you downloaded from ThemeForest instead of the extracted theme (salient.zip). Please check out the following article on the topic:

Hi,
Very helpful and that’s all worked for us now!
Many Thanks
Glad I could help, linthorpeevolution
Hi Phil, i have two questions: When u visit tts.studio-south.design,
1. The first element is a SPLIT LINE HEADING with the option on to fit the text to the container. But sometimes, when i load the page, its not fitted, its just the standard font size…
2. When you scroll down to the price tables, theres a red border across toggle button, even though i dont see the option to do a border. How can i get rid of that?
Best Andi
Hey Andi
1. My guess is that the fit is occurring before your font loads. I’ve noted to investigate the potential for that further for the upcoming minor release.
2. You’ll need to switch to one of the non-gradient colors to remove that border, as it’s added by default with either gradient.
Kind regards
Hai, can you help me, i already set back to top button on https://prnt.sc/6NBnRtCzYBEJ, but still not display in front end dekstop https://prnt.sc/maD2fMpx5s0p and mobile . https://mindatrafik.com
Hey,
I’m currently able to see the back to top button render from my end on Desktop/Mobile: https://ibb.co/X3MdXKq
Feel free to open a ticket on the support forum in regards so we can follow up further.

Hi there, I see there is a slider option for “recent posts” element, but I don’t see any option like “auto rotate” to automatically show other posts. Is this feasible?
Thank you!
Hey nikosff,
In the Recent Posts element, only the “Multiple Large Featured” offers an auto rotation option currently. However, I’ve noted your +1 for the idea on the wishlist
Kind regards
Hi, nice theme. Already purchased! Btw, do you provide a demo site like your main website? would love to learn from that.
I mean this link : https://themenectar.com/salient/
Hey alif24, I’m glad you’re enjoying Salient
You can import most of the sections from the promo landing page from the Salient Studio Template Library. https://themenectar.com/docs/salient/salient-studio/
Kind regards
Got it!
Hi there guys, been using this theme since I first created my website and loving each new feature you added over time. Couple of my clients decided to go with it as well. Just recently decided to update my website and while working on it I stumbled on problem that I dont seem to be able to find answer too. So I m using global sections to create footer. Apparently when I add contact form 7 to it, simple newsletter form with email and subscribe button, styling of the form is completly off making everything except the button white. I m using minimal form styling and both text and bottom line are white instead of being red like main contact form. Any help would be highly appreciated.
https://postimg.cc/hzBnhLz4Hey shewa, kindly share the actual URL where I can take a look at the form styling to assist with that.
Thanks in advance
I just started working on it but here is the link so you could see where’s the issue: https://sevarika.com/ Thank you.
Also wondering how to position off canvas custom text aligned to the bottom rather than just being straight bellow the menu items.
Hey,
1. It looks like the parent row has its text color set to “Light” which is causing the display issue:
Try changing that to dark in your Global Section.
2. 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:
#slide-out-widget-area.slide-out-from-right .inner-wrap {
position: static!important;
}
#slide-out-widget-area.slide-out-from-right .bottom-meta-wrap {
position: absolute;
bottom: 30px;
}
Kind regards
Thanks a ton! That worked great!
You’re welcome, shewa
Do I need to buy a WPBakery Page Builder license, or do i get the needed updates for it with your Salient WPBakery Page Builder?
Hey eduzal,
The Salient version of WPBakery does not require a separate license.
Kind regards
Can you have more than 4 images on the Cascading Images?
Hey priyani,
That element is limited to 4 layers by default. Adding further layers would require a modification from your child theme: https://themenectar.com/docs/salient/overriding-salient-wpbakery-element-template-files-through-a-child-theme/
Kind regards
Do you have any suggestions on how to make WP Recipe Maker look nicer in the Salient theme blog posts? The plugin offers a “custom CSS” section. https://url.dev/m/tpvTrgd/
Hey ehong33234,
I’m not seeing any display bugs/conflicts related to Salient directly. If you are just looking for style changes, please document in more detail what you would like assistance with in a ticket on the support forum: https://themenectar.ticksy.com/
Kind regards
I’m having a total brain fart so my apologies for the dumb question but if I want to set up a custom layout for a row that has 5 columns, how do I enter the fractions in the row layout field if I want the middle 3 columns to be larger than the outer two columns? The predefined option is 1/5+1/5+1/5+1/5+1/5 but when I try to change it to something like 1/8+2/8+2/8+2/8+1/8, I get an error message. Thank you and sorry for the trouble.
Hey ehong33234,
WPBakery only provides the natively ability to do an even 5 columns. If you need to modify that, it would require some custom CSS. Kindly open a ticket on the support forum in regards if you’d like further assistance with that.
Thanks in advance
It is a good day to buy but it needs many better ones, it is still much inferior to Elementor.
Hello, I hope this message finds you well. I need some assistance with the styling on https://elvay.ai/. Specifically, I’m trying to match the text style of the “NEXT” button at the bottom of the page with that of the “SIGN UP” button located towards the top. The top buttons are integrated with the Nectar slider, while the “NEXT” button is created with a Nectar button shortcode within a text block. Thanks for your help, as always.
Hey marcfest,
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:
#ajax-content-wrap .n-sc-button {
font-size: 35px;
font-weight: 700;
letter-spacing: 2px;
}
Kind regards
Oh wow, that works beautifully. Thank you. It makes a big difference.
You’re welcome, marcfest
Hello guys, I want to add radius to both the team member photo and the portfolio thumbnail. How can I do this?
Hey WooTajer, The CSS could vary depending on which settings/styles you’re using for both of those elements. Could you kindly share the page where you’re using those so I can provide an example snippet?
Thanks in advance
Right on this page: https://www.skillarabia.com/investment
Thank you in advance.
Hey WooTajer, that URL does not appear to be using Salient. Can you verify that it’s correct/publicly accessible?
Sorry I do not know why I sent this one. Here is the correct one: http://amadeusa26.sg-host.com
I also would like to know how you built the part on your home page where you show all the templates, what a beautiful way to showcase a portfolio.
Thanks WooTajer,
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:
.portfolio-items .inner-wrap,
.team-member {
border-radius: 20px;
overflow: hidden;
}
2. That was created using the Post Loop Builder (Formerly named Post Grid)
Kind regards
Thank you so much, any tutorial on how to replicate your work as I am not able to do it at all.
Hey WooTajer, there’s no tutorial on creating that specific setup. However, if you’d like to open a ticket on the support forum in regards we could assist in setting up an example on your site.
Kind regards
How can I update to the latest Salient Core version? Right now, I can only update up to 1.9.4 and there is a vulnerability in version < 2.0.2.
Hey Propulsa_Innovations, in order to get access to the latest plugin versions, you just need to be using a recent release of Salient: https://themenectar.com/docs/salient/updating-salient/
I was able to hide the header from a custom post type using .single-popup-posts #header-outer { } But I’m using left-header so the content will have data-header-format=”left-header” which will offset the content from the left and leave whitespace. How can I fix that? Also, there’s a whitespace on top of the content; can it be removed from CSS?
display: none;Thank you.
Hey hsen284,
You’ll need to add the class name “page-template-template-no-header” to the body within any section you wish to remove the header. It will take care of the offset styling issues.
Kind regards
Hi there, It is possible to open a specific category in a filtered post grid from a link on another page, something like post-grid-page/#specific-category or post-grid-page/?ID=specific-category-ID.
Hey themasterchile,
You can add ?grid-filter=category to your URL in order to accomplish that.
Kind regards
Greetings, we have noticed in our site that cash on delivery cost doesn’t always add to the price. Is there a way so i can show you privately the error?
Hey frtcyprus,
Have you verified that the issue only occurs when Salient is the active theme?
Kind regards
Greetings, since it is a live site we can not test another theme. Everything was set up using only your theme.
Hey frtcyprus, since there’s no known issue similar to what you’re describing, the first step of troubleshooting will be to setup a staging clone of your site where the theme can be swapped to the default WP theme in private. Please open a ticket on the support forum in regards when you have a staging URL.
Thanks in advance
Good afternoon. Since the 15th version of the theme, Yoast sitemap for images is supported. Is similar support planned for AIO SEO sitemap images?
Hey gogenich,
So far we only have support for Yoast and Rank Math sitemap images. However, I’ve noted the idea for AIO SEO.
Kind regards
