Hey there! I cannot seem to find the row template for the image gallery or ‘responsive infinite loop’ as shown in the Element Demo page, can you please let me know what the settings are (or template) for this image gallery? Thank you! https://chrisgrenier.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Screenshot-2024-03-25-at-1.37.54 PM.png

Hey svtmuscle!

Here are the settings for that image gallery instance, which is using the “Flickity Style” https://ibb.co/ZTv2TRj

Hello, I am using the WP Gutenberg (blocks) back-end editor to add pages.

It seems I have to add the

title twice for it to show. Do you know why this is the case? Or is this some option I have enabled/disabled somewhere. https://prnt.sc/XrjQW8SG09A2

Hey dzineee,

You can enable the option “Automatically Add Page Title to Page Header” in the Salient options > Page header tab.

Kind regards

Hello, I am not sure this is related to the Page Header. I actually don’t want to use the page header option, but just want to add a H1 to my usual editor. But now I have to this twice, as if the first one is ignored somehow. The source code only shows one

.

Hey dzineee,

Since there’s currently no known issue similar to that, I would need to take a closer look at your setup. Could you kindly open a ticket on the support forum in regards?

Thanks in advance

Nice demos! But is it possible to get the Salient start page? Or at least recreate it some way? I fell in love with the Salient preview start page haha

Thanks, sarayasar90!

The various sections which make up the promo landing page for Salient can be found in the Salient studio template library: https://themenectar.com/docs/salient/salient-studio/

Kind regards

Thank you so much!

You’re welcome, sarayasar90 :)

Is there a way to create a drop-down menu with images Like this: https://postimg.cc/rz8xMSpF? I know how to add the font awesome icons (and then an image behind the menu), but neither or those options achieve the product category image. Thank you!

Hey mehean!

You can specify a custom image, positioned above the menu item text within the Salient menu options: https://ibb.co/1MbY4St

Kind regards

Thanks for the response – but two important questions. First, where did you go to add that? It’s not easily findable from what you shared, as to where to make that update. Update – In case anyone else is wondering, it’s in the menu (custom links option) for each menu item. Thank you!

Hey mehean!

I’m glad that you were able to find it. For anyone else wondering about the feature, the documentation for the Salient Menu options can be found here: https://themenectar.com/docs/salient/salient-menu-options/

Cheers

I am building my footer using global_sections, and everything worked fine until I enabled the setting in Polylang for custom post type “Global Sections (salient_g_sections)”.

When this setting is enabled, the global sections simply disappears?

This is so far the only issue I have found with Polylang x Salient, and I really like using Polylang over WPML. I say this because I have seen another post where you recommend using WPML as the only working multilingual plugin, but I hope this problem is easily fixed

Oh wait… I apologize for my stupidity I was browsing a language for which the global section wasn’t translated so of course the global section disappeared

Hey ploughansen, I’m glad that you were able to figure it out :)

Kind regards

Hi, Is there a way I can set the color and border radius for the tabbed column content area? I’d like it to look like the first example in the image below, but it looks like the second example: https://postimg.cc/Fk4JfQ7g Thoughts? Thanks!

Hey apinzon!

You could accomplish something similar 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 (min-width: 1000px) {
.tabbed[data-style*=vertical] .wpb_tabs_nav {
    padding-right: 50px;
}
}
.tabbed[data-style*=vertical] .wpb_tab {
    box-shadow: 0px 5px 5px rgba(0,0,0,0.3);
    border-radius: 10px;
    background-color: #fff;
    padding: 40px !important;
}

Please open a ticket on the support forum in regards if you’d like further assistance with these type of minor customizations

Cheers

Importing Demo imports only the homepage? how can i import other inner pages also?

Hey xakbox,

The demo importer should import all pages associated with a demo. If you’ve verified that no other pages exist in your WP admin > Pages section, there could have been a problem during the import. Can you kindly open a ticket on the support forum in regards with your URL so that we can take a look?

Thanks in advance

Sure I will create a ticket, FYI information i am trying to import the SAAS demo. The demo import is not getting stuck or no error is showing. While importing the SAAS demo only the home page and a few images will be imported. I have tried the same with another hosting provider (in both spaces the server settings are optimum) I found that a few other templates are working fine (not exactly, as the magazine layout is not importing any blog posts and the e-commerce template is not importing the products) or it’s more like I need to import multiple demos multiple times to get all the posts types to get filled with some content.

Thanks xakbox, we’ll follow up on the support forum.

Kind regards

Hi,

I was reaching out to see if it were possible to change the radius of the highlighted text highlight background.

Hey, here’s another snippet you can use for that:

.nectar-highlighted-text[data-style] * {
    z-index: -1;
}

Please open a ticket on the support forum in the future for assistance with these customizations :)

Kind rgards

Will do! Thanks

You’re welcome, deonteramos :)

Hi, For the Progress Bar, can I set a different color when the bar reaches, say, 100%? Ideally, I’d like the bar to change from red to orange to green based on certain numbers, but also just turning it green at 100% works. Any ideas? Thanks!

Hey apinzon!

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:

Thanks!

You’re welcome, apinzon :)

​Hey Salient,

We have been loving the version of WP Bakery that you guys have created for Salient.

However, one of the biggest issues we have with it is the element spacing on the frontend editor not being correct as to what is displayed on the frontend. This causes us to have to save the changes, then view the page on a separate screen and tab to see what it actually looks like.

Looking at the source code of the frontend editor it looks like nector is adding some styling in the nector-addons-frontend.css stylesheet. Some of these spacing issues are coming from:

body.compose-mode .vc_column-inner > .vc_element-container > .vc_vc_row_inner.first-inner-row-el {

​padding-top: 29px; }

.wpb_wrapper>div { margin-bottom: 24px; }

It would be awesome if you guys could figure out an alternative to this to make the spacing on the frontend editor accurate to what is displayed on the frontend like Elementor and other builders have.

Even adding an option to disable this in the settings would work so we don’t need to create some overriding CSS everytime.

Hey wpcodeus!

I’m glad to hear you’ve been enjoying the Salient WPBakery over the years.

Are goal is try and keep the editor as close as 1:1 with the final render as possible. However, we do add some additional padding in places within the editor view to ensure controls are easily accessible. That padding on the inner row is used to ensure both the parent row and inner row controls are visible when hovering over the elements. Without it, you would not be able to access both sets of controls.

That being said, I’ve noted the feedback to see if we can come up with further refinements with that or potentially create an option to alter the functionality.

Kind regards

When using border radius on a column and the column border with the same value there is gap.

https://ibb.co/k9ySStb https://ibb.co/NTtMWYG https://ibb.co/XzPLqm4

Is there a fix for this?

Hey MarcGarner, that is occurring due to the border and BG being on separate layers. We keep them independent to allow for hover effects/reordering/animations.

You could close the gap with the following snippet: https://pastebin.com/XRVWxjR4

Kind regards

Works perfectly thanks, might be worth incorporating in the theme by default.

Hi ThemeNectar Team,

I extended my support until Sept 19, 2024 because I was getting the following message on support: “Sorry, support for this Envato Market purchase code has expired. You will need to extend support or purchase a new license.”.

Unfortunately, after paying for and extending the support I am still getting the same message. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Please ignore this message. The support is working now. I just needed to be a little patient. :)

Hey mojojojo360 :) Yes – ticks can take up to half an hr to sync with renewed licenses.

Cheers

Hi support,

So we are currently using the Salient theme on one of our websites, and we are using the image gallery element with a masonry grid that opens images in a lightbox. However, we are struggling to get the long images to not pixellate. Is there something that can be done so that the long images do not pixellate or stretch when being viewed in the masonry layout?

Hey aglet,

Can you please share the URL of your image gallery in regards so that I can take a look at your settings?

Thanks in advance

Sure thing, thank you. It is the section called “OUR FAVOURITES” on the home page: http://surl.li/rvcld

Thanks aglet,

The images in that image gallery grid are using smaller sizes than required for the layout/ Such as this one, which is using 600×400 but should be 500×1000. Kindly verify that you don’t have any image sizes disabled in the Salient options > general settings > Image Sizes tab, and try regenerating your thumbnails using: https://wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/

Kind regards

Hello, I’m trying to get support and renewed our support for another 6 months, but our license that we use isn’t being accepted in your support system. Can you please help?-

Hey webaholicsteam,

The Envato API/Ticksy can take half an hr to sync with renewed licenses. I can see that you successfully opened a ticket earlier today.

Kind regards

​Hello,

On mobile, the top right menu does not work and is configured correctly in both Appearance > Menu and the theme options.

What could be the problem?

I am waiting for a solution.

Thank you.

Hey lambdamotive,

Please provide your website URL as well as further details on what isn’t working specifically. e.g. Are you unable to trigger the opening of the menu when clicking, or are you not able assign menu items? etc.

Kind regards

Hi there!

How is it possible to override: plugins\salient-core\includes\post-grid\loop-markup.php file?

I tried to change path like: themes\salient-child\salient-core\includes\post-grid\loop-markup.php

But this doesn´t work.

Have you any tip for me?

Best, Alex

Hey Alex!

You can’y override the entire file, but you can copy any function from within the file into your child theme functions.php for overriding.

Kind regards

Hi, How can I link to a page with a specific tab open? Thanks!

Hey apinzon!

You can add ?tab=your-tab-name to your page URL. For example: https://themenectar.com/salient/elements/tabbed-section/?tab=aliens

Kind regards

Hello, I’m looking to have external link symbol next to the link (something similar to how Aesop aesop.com has it for its external link in the footer). But when I copy and add this symbol to a menu item, it shows me a emoji version of it on the mobile (the default blue). How do I solve this?

I’m looking to have this arrow-based external link symbol.

Hey asingh2404,

You could opt to build your footer using the page builder via a global section and create your links use the button or call to action element in order to specify icons as needed. https://themenectar.com/docs/salient/page-builder-global-sections/

Kind regards

Hi!

i have 2 problems:)

after the last update my related Post title ist now “hidden” (the word hidden). I don’t know how to change it again..

hidden

Other problem or question. if i use single image and check “Display Caption in Lightbox” it doesen’t appear in the Lightbox. In the gallery it appears well without checking anything.

i’m using Salient Version: 16.0.4

Thanks for your help!

Hey ahdrei,

1. Can you please share the URL where that “hidden” title is present so that I can take a look at your settings?

2. Have you verified that the “caption” field is where you’ve added the image text to and not the “description” field?

Thanks in advance

1. ok found the error.. In the Salient configuation > Blog > Single Post : The Related Posts Title Text was marked on “None (hidden)” in the dropdown.

2. ok text was in the description :)

Thanks for your fast help

Hey ahdrei, I’m glad I could help :)

I’ve noted to correct that display issue when selecting the “hidden” option.

Cheers
