Blog for a way to show on a page? I do not know. Please help me
Hey jumpnwow, thanks for purchasing the theme!
I’m not quite sure what you’re asking. Are you saying you can’t get your blog to show up at all, or are you wondering if you can display your blog on multiple pages?
Thank you for answer. Was resolved.
Good to hear!

Hi,
Love the template design. Forgive me, I’m very green to WordPress still. Is there anyway to get those icons underneath the homepage slider? If so, where can I find those?
Thanks, SA
Hey BigSuch, thanks for purchasing the theme!
You have access to the entire font awesome library through the shortcode generator
The shortcode generator can be found on your editor as the “N” icon.

Thank you for the quick reply!
You’re welcome!
Hi, How can I remove the hearts underneath the portfolio thumbnails?
olide4,
please use the support forum for questions such as these
It’s already been answered here.
Greetings, I am looking to purchase this theme but I wanted to know if I could insert a video into the slideshow on the homepage.
Hey gdawk19!
Unfortunately, as of now only images can be used in the home slider.
also, I wanted to know if it is possible to replace the search feature with a login set up? I like how when you click search then the menu has the search overlay. It would be great to have a login area like that too!
It would be possible to do this, but it would require some development
Question, does bbpress and buddypress work out of the box for this theme?
Hey Ganzuelo!
Those plugins have not been fully tested at this time so I can not guarantee compatibility. I will try to take some time later to verify whether they work correctly or not
Cheers!
Thank you! I know both plugins take the styling from the main theme, I’ve only seen it broken on a couple themes.
Can you fix it? - After Update to 1.3 the small icons have the wrong color. - After Update to 1.3 the Navigationpoints not in a line. See home (lower) and menüpoints with pulldown (higher). http://image-upload.de/image/RD7jSU/6faf7ca3ea.jpg - At Portofolio in editing, press on “Second Image” pop up not the same selective interface as in “Post image”. In iPad works the “Second Image” interface not. This is to big and not scrollable.
Wanted feature - At Blog show no Post image in the Top
Thanks
Hey dkaiser,
1. The live demo is using v1.3 and this issue is not there. I have checked in Firefox, Chrome, Safari and IE. Try making your navigation font 1px bigger in the typography options or clearing your cahce.
2. Again, the small icons are still the same color as before. You can see them here. Maybe you should supply me with a URL so I can see why they might be wrong on your end?
3. The second, third, fourth image uploader has never been the newest media uploader because the developer of that framework still hasn’t released an update to use it.
Please post any further questions and issues in the support forum. The comments are not the appropriate place
Thanks!
I’m loving this theme! I noticed there are some new features since the last time I viewed it and I’m happy to see the additions! I was wondering if it would be hard to make this theme have a boxed layout option if I were to customize it myself. Otherwise, are there any plans to add this feature in the future? If so, I’m SOLD!
Hey ohgeelizz!
The boxed layout would have to be a custom addition for now as you suspected. The only tricky part would be handling the home slider and possibly the navigation. As those two elements would require special attention when doing the boxed mod. Maybe it will get added as a built-in option in a future release though
Cheers!
it’s getting better and better! i am close to buy
is it possible to have multiple portfolios? so i can have different pages with different portfolios?
how does a simple gallery in a page look like? do you have an example?
Hey benzrecordings!
I’m glad to hear you think so
Multiple portfolios still is still not built into the theme, but a guide on how to create multiple portfolios based on categories has been posted in the support forum.
Cheers!
ah ok. and simple images on pages? will thy load in a lightbox effect, so that i can create different galleries on different pages?
There is no automatic lightboxing built in, however I and a couple of buyers have tested and confirmed NextGEN works well with the theme
Hi, love the theme, thank you.
I have placed my google analytics code in the space provided in the theme settings like so <script>UA-38081418-2</script>, it doesn’t seem to be working when I log into Google analytics site, as in no information (page views etc..)
note. I am running Jetpack stats from within Wordpress, would that cause any issues?
cheers
Hey TORODESIGN, thanks for purchasing the theme!
Would you be so kind as to provide me with a link so that I can inspect the code to ensure it’s getting placed correctly? I suspect your issue might be as simple as Google not updating on there end yet. Sometimes it can take what seems to be a whole day for the tracking to start showing in analytics
Here is the link to my clients site: www.cplaw.net.au
Hey TORO,
I have checked your code and it turns out you have not entered in a full analytics script. I assumed you were abbreviating above when you said “like so <script>UA-38081418-2</script>”. I have attached a screenshot of your code vs. the analytics code on the live demo. Make sure what you copy and paste looks like that
I was just pasting the code in the Analytics form field within the Salient theme options (Wordpress dashboard) Where should all that code go?
TORO,
You pasted the code in the correct place, you just didn’t paste the entire code.
Ok thanks. I am having reports that the site is showing a black screen when being viewed on a pc using IE. Can you take a look?
Can you verify the version of IE? Only IE8 and above are supported and have been thoroughly tested.
Also, please post any future questions in the support forum.
Thanks!
Thanks its fine tested on 8.. They were using 7!! Lol
Uhh… nevermind.
Scouring the comments but can’t find an answer. Is it possible to make the whole nav bar fixed (persistent) as you scroll down the page?
Hey corbinw,
even though you apparently have found your answer, I will confirm that there is an option to disable the resize on scroll and simply keep the nav fixed in it’s initial state as you scroll
Is there a full width version of the portfolio page, ie w/o the sidebar? Thanks!
Is there a full width version of the portfolio page, ie w/o the sidebar? Thanks!
Hey jschwerdtfeger!
As of right now, there is no full width option for the portfolio more details page. However, it wouldn’t be very hard to simply remove it from the template file
Cheers!
2. Enter this snippet into your Custom CSS box in the theme options panel: #portfolio-filters { display: none!important; }
HI, can you explain where we do this? Can’t find the path…
olide4,
Go to your theme options panel, it’s the item in your left hand menu that says “Salient” with the N icon. From there, right in the initial general settings tab at the bottom there is a box for “Custom CSS”. You can paste that snippet in there
Great theme! I have basically been “working on building my website” for SEVEN years and this theme (and a little extra determination) allowed me to get a site fully up-and-running in 12 hours. I had purchased three other themes over the years and this one was by FAR the easiest to use and populate. The documentation was very helpful and the theme is rather easy to use. One thing I would suggest though: Mention where the shortcodes are found in the documentation. I found the screenshot on this page, but had I not found that there I’m not sure I would have found it at all. Shortcodes aren’t always handled the same way in various templates, so this would be a worthwhile addition to the documentation in my opinion.
Thanks so much for a great theme that is so easy to use! So thrilled to actually have my portfolio site live!
Hey Melissa! Thanks so much for taking the time to write that, it really made me happy to hear how much you’ve enjoyed it!
I will note the point you brought up about adding additional info regarding the shortcodes to the documentation
Would you mind if I used your wonderful comment as a testimonial?
Cheers!
Sure thing.
Excellent
Thanks so much!
A couple of quick questions: 1- What creates the little circles with check boxes in the portfolio description? Can’t seem to find where those come from. 2- I am having trouble with the spacing around my services icons on my homepage. Too much space between the large icon and the header. I know it is possible to close up the gap because it is that way on the live preview version (see comparison here: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/51905931/Screen%20Shot%202013-04-23%20at%202.05.53%20PM.png // see live version of my site here: http://melissa-watkins.com)
If you could offer any tips on those two items, I’d greatly greatly appreciate it! Thanks so much! -Melissa
Never mind on the spacing issue. I just figured it out! Still curious about the checked items on the portfolio.
Good to hear!
- The check marks are populated from the “Project Attributes” you define and assign to each portfolio item. You should see the tab for them in your portfolio section in the admin panel.

I tried to submit a ticket on the support forum, but can’t find my license certificate. Yes, I clicked the link that says “show me,” but my downloads page doesn’t look like that. The only link I have says “Regular License.”
I’m happy to open a ticket if you can help me figure out how to find that. Otherwise, here are my three questions:
1- This is small, but I’m all about the details. In the sample, the day of the month is bolded for the blog postings. Mine is not. Any idea why this is happening? http://melissa-watkins.com/blog/#.UXmcoL-hClJ
2- I’m getting extra junk at the end of my URLs. I’m trying to keep them clean and legible and not sure where this extraneous text is coming from. For example: the #.UXmcol-hClJ in the above link is what I’m referring to.
3- I’m getting categories for blog posts that I am not clicking (for example, I just check photography, but photography and design end up displaying etc). This has happened on a few posts.
Thanks for the help!
Hey Melissa!
1. You have the font “Raleway” chosen in your custom fonts in the theme admin panel. Just switch it back to none and the default one will be used.
2. I have no idea what might be causing that, I’m guessing it might be a plugin or something of the sort. It has nothing to do with the theme.
3. I have not heard reports of such behavior and I don’t know what might be causing that either off the top of my head. It would be helpful to at least see it happen myself so that I can better investigate the problem.
hello!i would like to ask if the height of the area for the logo and the size of the fonts menu can be bigger somehow ?
Hey martzi_!
Yes, both are defined by you in the options panel
hey, if i wanna have 2 different portofolio for 2 different page, how i can do?
Hey Allenivesix, thanks for buying the theme!

Cheers!
Awesome theme, I’m loving it. I actually didn’t have to edit any code at all which is a first! I just have one question for the contact us map.
Is there a way to add more than 10 locations? I want to potentially be able to add hundreds.
Thanks!
Hey, great to hear chrisko!
In a future update I might try to make the number of locations unlimited, but for now it would require some tinkering with the page-contact.php layout.
Thank you so much for your reply. I will try my best haha.
No problem!
Hey,
What would you say is the BEST image size for the homepage slider? I have played around with many sizes (included the ones suggested: between 1600px – 2000px) but I find the image moves around etc on different devices and screen resolutions.
Do you have a template similar to the new YouTube One Channel layout. A guide that gives one an idea where to best center an image?
If not that, a suggestion on what you feel works best. Thanks
Hey rafedwards
Have you updated to the latest version, 1.3 yet? The slider image positioning has greatly improved.
It’s always recommended to upload an image at about 2000px wide while keeping the focus of the image still in the center. This will ensure it looks good on a wide array of resolutions. Since the update, the height of the image should pretty much match the height you define in the slider settings without getting any bar at the bottom.
