My top navigation bar and logo just disappeared. Cant seem to get them back… And how long should it take before the favicon is updated? I lost them after uploading one, and it hasn’t showed up yet.

Hmm… No i cant see anything except a white bar. But i guess the problem is on my side. (runs to new computer)

Seems to be working fine on other computer. thanks!

:D No problem

Can i replace the google map in contacts with a header image instead? Have no use for the map thing.

Can I please see the link?

You need to have at least 3 items in your portfolio for the home carousel to correctly calculate the heights, just add one more item and take a look ;)

Anyone who is using v1.1 of Salient,

can you please check to see if your shortcode generator is working correctly and let me know in here? There are a couple buyers reporting theirs has broken as of the update, but I can’t seem to duplicate the error in order to fix it.

Thanks!

Question: Is there a way to remove the search completely? I will wait for your reply on the shortcodes.

In the custom CSS box add this line:

#search-btn {
   display: none;
}

In regards to the shortcodes, have you added any new plugins that you could try deactivating to see if there is a conflict? I have tried to duplicate the problem you have described for a bit now and can’t get it to happen.

Quick question, can you use the page header on on the blog pages as well? that would look so dope.

I will add this option in the next release :)

awesome, would be nice to add to any page template (blog ,portfolio etc)

How do you change/edit footer widgets?

Try out the live demo now on the iPhone 4 and let me know if it’s in working order

Just tried the live demo and its working on my iphone4S

Excellent! I can now mark that off as fixed and will include it with the next update :) Thanks for testing it out.

Okay, I’ve just finished setting up your theme at http://hrly.co. Can you let me know if i’ve missed anything?

Thanks! That’s really helpful feedback.

- Where do you update your profile, outside of the standard profile? - I’d love some extra tips! - No issues with the shortcode generator.

Last question: If I wanted to have one portfolio just for photos, and photos posted to it would NOT go to the main portfolio feed. How would I do that with your theme?

- The description for the author bio section is pulled right from the profile description you enter in the admin panel at Users > Your User Name in the “Biographical Info” box.

- Right now the theme only supports one portfolio, so even if you exclude the photos category from the main one, unfortunately, there’s no where else to display it yet.

Hey. Beautiful theme! I’d love to buy your template but I’ve got a question, does it include its PSD?

Thanks!

unfortunately no PSD’s are included because most of the styles and elements you see are done with CSS except for a few exceptions.

Even if they are done with CSS it is better when you have a PSD to play with. Absolutely fell in love with the look and quality and despite lack of PSD I have bought it. Thanks and welcome to TF!

Thanks a lot andaluza! I really appreciate it :D

Hi, I also updated the theme today and just like jdiazyo i can’t use the Shortcodes anymore.. also the contact page options has a problem. the Pin is’nt visible anymore..

Also, make sure you’re activating the location #1 and entering the coordinates in there and not just entering in the lat lng for the map center.

Thank you for your response! it worked well after rename the themefolder and actualy reactivate it in wp

Hi, Amazing theme !!!

I have one question, It’s possible add (go top) button. that it looks like this:

http://themeforest.net/item/hexagonal-clean-multipurpose-responsive-website/full_screen_preview/4359597

Regards

Thanks!

I might add the go to top button as an optional feature in the next update ;)

thanks you

Thank you for the update. Works perfect. The only other question I have relates to the shortcodes. I noticed that they are not working. For example, I am trying to place a divider, but when I click the insert button, it stalls.

Themeforest and used the zip file to directly upload. This is probably the 10th or 12th theme I have used here. It is interesting, but the shortcodes have disappeared for me. Not sure what everyone else is experiencing

Yes, deleted the old them uploaded the new

Did you delete the old theme before uploading v1.1?

Just a heads up, we’re getting the following error showing up at the bottom of the page at /wp-admin/admin.php?page=redux_options&tab=0&settings-updated=true

Warning: file_put_contents(wp-content/themes/salient/css/colors.css) [function.file-put-contents]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in wp-content/themes/salient/functions.php on line 986

Warning: file_put_contents(wp-content/themes/salient/css/custom.css) [function.file-put-contents]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in wp-content/themes/salient/functions.php on line 997

dsgndvlp,

You shouldn’t be getting any errors in regards to the options panel. However, I see that it might just be a simple a permissions error. Your server might automatically have set stricter permission rules than most. To fix this, chmod these files:

wp-content/themes/salient/css/colors.css wp-content/themes/salient/css/custom.css

to allow the server to write to them. If you don’t know how to do that, your hosting company should be able to take care of it for you very quickly :)

Please let me know if you get this sorted out!

ahhh, yep that did the trick! Thanks!

Excellent!

small bug that affects child themes:

on line 103 in functions.php: wp_register_style("main-styles", get_template_directory_uri() . "/style.css");

using get_template_directory_uri() will get the style.css location for the parent theme only. This needs to be changed to get_stylesheet_directory_uri() to get the location of a child theme style.css file when a child theme is being used.

Hey trevoreddy,

you’re right, I completely overlooked that! I’ll add this fix to the top of the queue :)

Hi,

Love this theme!

However, I have this theme nested within a site running another theme. So far, I cannot find a way to make your theme recognize my subdomain page as a homepage. Therefore, I cannot use the slider. Is there a way to have slider functionality on every page? Or is there a way to get the theme to recognize my sub as a home page?

Thanks

Hey, I’m happy to hear you love it! :)

You should still be able to assign one of the home templates to a page that isn’t necessarily the front page, or root of the website. Have you correctly assigned one of the home page templates?

Thanks for the quick reply; and yes I tried that many times. I could get other pages to act as a homepage, but not my sub landing page. But, none the less, all is well! For some fun reason unknown to me, my sub landing page will now accept the home template. I’m certain it was an error on my end. Thanks again.

No problem, I’m glad it’s all working for you now!

Hello,

Can i use a custom image as a background?

Ben

Hey Ben,

this would have to achieved using custom CSS as of the moment.

Thanks for a great update!

One question, you mentioned earlier that the theme had some problems with child themes. If I want to customise background color and such would you advise me to change the theme files or create a child theme as it is today?

The update fixed the issue with child themes, please see the new section in the user guide for help with creating a child theme :D

Great, thanks!

Another buyer has caught an unrelated minor bug with having a child theme that I am going to patch soon. For now if you want to fix it yourself, in functions.php on line 103 change the segment:

get_template_directory_uri()

to

get_stylesheet_directory_uri()

Hello,

i have a problem since the update : the date is not showing anymore in the single portfolio page.

Any idea please?

Thks

// Great theme by the way !

// Sorry, that’s ok !

There is now an option for you to toggle it in the options panel :)

What kinda tweaks?!

Yeah this theme is awesome – now all I need is someone to help tweak – do you guys recommend anyone?

Woo love your work, updating now :D

Update:

OMG THIS UPDATE IS AMAZING!! Thank you!

:) I sent you an email with 3 tiny questions. If you have a sec can you take a look? Annoying client on my ass about it :p you know how we are :p

Sorry for not responding to your previous one, as you can imagine I have been super busy developing!

I will be responding to your current email shortly with answers for all your questions :D

All good, you’re doing an amazing job!
