Hi, congrats for the theme…
i have a problem with google map in contact page:
the web shows this message on load contact page:
original:
El servidor API de Google Maps ha rechazado tu solicitud. El parámetro “sensor” especificado en la solicitud debe estar definido en “true” o “false”.
translated:
The Google Maps API server rejected your request. The parameter “sensor” specified in the request must be set to “true” or “false”.
trying to edit that in functions.php, but i have the same problem ever…
can you help me?? Thanks
How do I remove the map from from the contact page? Thanks
By simply not assigning the contact page template as its only purpose is to add that map 
Doh! Of course. Thanks 
You’re welcome!
Hi there – Presale questions:
1) Is there a testimonial slider in the theme that can be placed anywhere via shortcode and rotates automatically?
2) I saw that you have a carousel on the homepage for recent work. – Does it support video items? Currently the items you have there do not show if an item is video – Can this type of carousel be embedded anywhere via shortcode – Do you have a recent posts carousel as well? – Does the recent posts carousel support video items? – Can the recent posts carousel be embedded anywhere via shortcode?
Hey lifeblogs,
1. That might get added in a future update, for now you’d have to just use blockquotes
2 a. The video projects are visible in the recent works carousel, did you miss them?
2 b. Yes, you can embed the recent projects anywhere with the shortcode.
2 c/d/e. There is a recent posts shortcode, but there is no carousel for that or video support.
Two more things:
1. How do I make the link from client module not pop up in a new window?
2. In the event the user does not have javascript enabled I want the user to be able to click on a link next to their image on the portfolio to go to that posts page. How would I achieve this?
Love the template!
$client_content = '<div><a href="'.$url.'" target="_blank"><img src="'.$image.'" alt="client" /></a></div>';
to not have the target=”_blank” attribute.
2. Open up the page-portfolio.php and add a link around the title of each project so that users can click on that when javascript is off.
find this line:
<h4 class="title"><?php the_title(); ?></h4>(should be around line 190) and change it to this:
<h4 class="title"><a href="<?php the_permalink();?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h4>
thank you!
You’re welcome!
thanks for your help,..Im getting this all figured out.
I have one important question. How do I get the portfolio to load faster without having to install any plugins for caching? Right now if you clear safari and go to the portfolio it takes a very long time (10 to 20, sometimes 30+ seconds) to load the portfolio or home (which includes a recent work short code).
No problem lcm404,
The only reason I could see for your portfolio taking that long to load is if you have a ton of items and are not using pagination. I’m a bit confused why your homepage would take that long to load too due to simply having the recent work carousel. Would you mind opening a ticket on the support forum with your URL so that I can check it out?
Thanks!
the images were GIANT. I will get back to you when you have them all optimized and uploaded tomorrow. A litte off topic but still somewhat on…after I do what is needed what caching plugin would suggest if any at all?
W3 Total Cache
Hi,
i’d love to show a page header on my blog page (i mean the overview, which lists all posts e.g. /blog ) too – like on any other page with the default template. although i can add a page header image to my blog page, it won’t appear there 
is there any possibility to do so?
btw. great theme – i love it so much!
cheers
Thanks creativehd!
As of right now the custom header functionality has been purposely left out of the blog.. It may get added in a future update though
Thanks for the super fast response.
Any idea how I can add the a page header manually in php? I guess for my blog page index.php is used – and there also is a function call for nectar_page_header (or so) – so is there any way to force a page header there too?
You’re welcome creativehd!
You were on the right path Open index.php and replace the regular nectar_page_header call with this one:
<?php nectar_page_header(get_option('page_for_posts')); ?>
Oh Snap, so easy! And I spent like 3 hours reengineering your code and finally gave up haha.
Thanks guys, totally saved my ass! Have a nice day and keep making great themes
Cheers creativehd! 
Fantastic theme. I can’t wait to get my portfolio online with it!
One quick question, is it possible to get a large icon to behave as a button? Thanks in advance.
Thanks jluszcz!
Yes, just wrap it in a standard HTML link (switch to the text mode in your editor when doing this). Here’s an example:
<a href="http://themenectar.com">[icon size="large" image="icon-gift"] </a>
Perfection! For some reason I thought it would be a lot more complicated. Thanks again!
Cheers
I just want to start off by saying this theme is amazing! Very clean & organized files & code, and just all around super professional. I would recommend this theme to anyone that is interested in it. Can’t wait for more themes from ThemeNectar. Keep up the awesome work!
But, I was wondering if there is any way of implementing a custom premium @font-face non-Google web font in my site(Gotham to be exact)?
Thanks so much michaeljenkins!
The easiest way to do this would be to simply import it in your CSS through a font face rule such as this:
@font-face {
font-family: 'OpenSansRegular';
src: url('css/fonts/OpenSans-Regular-webfont.eot');
src: url('css/fonts/OpenSans-Regular-webfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('css/fonts/OpenSans-Regular-webfont.woff') format('woff'),
url('css/fonts/OpenSans-Regular-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('css/fonts/OpenSans-Regular-webfont.svg#OpenSansRegular') format('svg');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
And then use it freely by adding it to whatever elements you desire:
body {
font-family: 'OpenSansRegular'!important;
}
Perfect answer, thank you!
Cheers
I’m trying to create a child theme directory but it doesn’t seem to be working properly.
I’ve moved fonts.css.php, custom.css.php and colors.css.php into the following directory, ../salient-child/css
I created a style.css and put it within /salient-child with the following code:
/* Theme Name: Salient Child Template: salient */ @import url(”../salient/style.css”);
But, when I preview the site none of the parent styles are being utilized. Please review at http://demo.hirefully.com
Am I doing something wrong?
Hey dlagman, thanks for purchasing the theme!
What you’ve written down looks correct. You’re also correct in stating that the parent stylesheet is not getting imported, which is you’re only problem at the moment.
Are you sure your relative path is correct? Also, try copying and pasting this in place of yours to rule out any malformed characters:
@import url("../salient/style.css");
Thanks for the quick response! You’re right! I think I had some malformed characters as it’s working perfectly now.
Thank you again!!
I thought those quotes looked odd
Cheers!
Another question. when I create a new page in the portfolio section it always creates an empty black box [for video]. How do I remove that black box?
Thanks
Hey Bloomadv,
The black box should only be there as a placeholder for when you haven’t set an image yet. Since you mentioned this was for a video, have you uploaded a Preview image for it?
I understand, thanks. We can not use the featured image as we are slicing our images for optimising. Please see the image as an example. http://test1.thisisbloom.com/?portfolio=west-coast-cooler
Many thanks for your help.
In that case, just open up the single-portfolio.php template and find this segment:
if (has_post_thumbnail()) { echo get_the_post_thumbnail($post->ID, 'full', array('title' => '')); } else {
echo '<img src="'.get_template_directory_uri().'/img/no-portfolio-item.jpg" alt="no image added yet." />';
}
Just remove the entire else statement from that segment so that there is no default image used.
Will that effect the other portfolio pages or just this one? I have feature items in ‘some’ portfolio pages. Thanks.
That will remove the black boxes from ever showing by default, all of your featured images will still display
Rockin’! Thanks again : )
I cant find Licence Certificate on my downloads page http://cl.ly/image/3n3G2Q0f1s2N
i wanted to post a ticket to your site, but cant find the certificate number….
and the question was:
How can I make a slike with a custom transition speed?
exampe : i want to have a welcome message that only shows for a second, and than have other slides that last longer.
also i would like to show the welcome message only once – if that is possible?
Thanks a lot!
Wowzers
Yeah, Ticksy hasn’t updated their guide yet since ThemeForest changed their UI so the directions are invalid.
1. That’s not really feasible since the slide only takes in one property for transition speed; they can’t be set individually,
2. This would also be tricky. You’d have to create a Javascript function to remove your first slide after the first transition. It’s a little beyond the scope of routine support mate
tnx! i’ll think of another way to implement what i need
You’re welcome
Hello there! This is a great theme! I want to be able to put up a Custom content slider on my home page But i cant figure out the short code for it and hence am not able to have a custom content slider Please help!
Hey tnt240x,
For some reason I can’t see your “purchased” tag. Have you bought the theme yet?
One of me Friends bought and Gave the theme to me since he didn’t want it 
Okay, well if that’s the case please use the login of your friend to request support from so that I can verify this
no problem ive got it up anyway so its fine!
The theme is great and your response is very quick. I feel spoiled even requesting things. You might have already made a solution for this, but is there anyway to have separate portfolio pages. For instance I would like one page to be examples of video (portfolio 1 items) vs. a page that is all tutorial videos (portfolio 2 items)?
Thanks MoMarkMoProblem!
Yes, I actually posted a guide on this in the support forum, but the forum is down at the moment so I can’t provide you the exact link yet 
When it’s back up, I’ll link you it .. or you can just search for “portfolio” and you should be able to find the relative ticket in the results.
Cheers
When hosting a video how does one turn off the server authentication password protection?
Hey jcalafato!
That sounds like something to configure with your htaccess or apache server mate
Hi there. Is it possible to change the icons on the home page for custom icons? Instead of using the Font Awesome ones?
Thanks
Hey Bloom!
You would need to create custom CSS classes for your icons or just use straight images. It would be challenging to integrate your custom icons into the shortcode generator.
Thats cool, I just use images. Thanks
No problem!
Hello,
Great Theme!
I’d like to create a new featured image size or restrict the size that the featured image appears on the blog page and single posts.
I’ve tried creating a new image size in my function.php and referencing the new image name, but I don’t seem to be able to get it working.
Any help you can give me would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks.
You’ve taken the correct steps Christopher. All you need to do now is reupload your images as those image sizes are generated when you upload. They won’t have any effect on previously uploaded images.
Hello,
I changed the background color and now the little “Love” button sticks out. Is there a way to remove that option and icon? It would be nice if I can change it to match, but if I can’t I would rather delete them.
Hey DroidsforSale, thanks for purchasing the theme!
1. If you would prefer to keep the love button, just recolor it to match your background in Photoshop or your favorite graphic editing program. The icon is located at: img/icons/heart.png
Cheers
Hi – I am setting up your theme and I noticed you have column shortcodes for 1, 2, 3, 4, or 6 columns. I need 5. Can I get 5 columns? THANK YOU! JC
Thanks for buying the theme Anewteam!
The reason 1/5 columns are not included in the shortcodes is because the framework the theme is built on uses a 12 column grid system, which is not divisible by 5.
If you need 5 columns, you’ll have to create a css class for it specifically e.g.
.col-one-fifth {
width: 20%;
}
This theme is awesome. Great job!
Thanks a lot!
Is there a way to make the carousel shortcode automatically scroll?
Hey Vexx!
Yes, just locate the carousel section in the init.js file (located in the js folder). It should be around line 397 if you’re on 1.4.2 and change this property to true:
auto : {
play: false
}
