Hey I just updated my site to wordpress 3.6 and after that updated the theme to 1.7.2 coming from 1.6.2
The issue I have now is that my blog isn’t showing at all. I have it set up under settings--> reading --> and there I select the page where I want my blog to show up. I have no idea what the issue is, I’ve cleared my cache on my browser etc…
I read through some of the comments and notice other where having issues with previous updates but can’t seem to find one addressing my issue (unless I missed it)
Hope to hear from you soon!
Thank you
Hey jonaragon,
please open a support ticket with your URL so I can check your site out for you
There should be no issue with your main blog page upon upgrading.
Cheers
Ok just submitted a support ticket
Thanks
Thank you 
Great Theme! Can you add a yelp icon to the Footer options and social menu? Thanks!
Thanks!
I will add it to the wishlist adam:)
Hi! This theme looks great and I’d love to purchase, but I have one question—are you able to link the navigation to anchors on the same page, or must they link to new, separate pages?
Hey reshamparikh!
The process of doing that would be the same in any regular html scenario i.e. just use hash links to the ids of your sections on the page. You could also get a wordpress plugin to scroll to the sections if that’s what you need 
Thanks so much!
You’re welcome!
Hi there,
I can’t seem to find the Shopping Cart button anywhere when looking at your theme in mobile view? Am I missing something?
Thanks.
Hey keyframeinc!
As of now, the ajax shopping cart is hidden on the mobile view. You can still easily create a link for the cart though you still are presented with a link to the cart when you add items to your cart on each product page. However, I totally might implement something like it on mobile as well 
Are you able to embed a Vimeo video in the top slider?
Would like to purchase but just to know whether this works 1st. Thanks
Hey mattcallanan!
Yes, you can embed it in the same way as you see the self hosted video in the slider in the demo 
Cheers
So far I’m loving this theme!
For the Home Slider, I have the background set to white, but this is causing some issues on the visibility of the buttons as the text appears white. Could you point me in the right direction to change the button font color on the css styling page?
I haven’t upgraded to 1.7 yet, so if the fix is already on there let me know and I’ll just do the upgrade.
Thanks!
I think I found it on the style.css sheet on lines 1393 to 1407. Please let me know if editing this as follows would break any aspects of the site. As far as I can tell it just added the proper color to the button elements.
#featured article .post-title > a {
opacity: 0;
color: #c1272d;
left: -10px;
top: 10px;
letter-spacing: 1.5px;
position: relative;
display: inline-block;
padding: 14px 18px;
border: 2px solid rgba(193,39,45,0.3);
-webkit-transition: border-color 0.3s linear, background-color 0.3s linear;
-moz-transition: border-color 0.3s linear, background-color 0.3s linear;
-o-transition: border-color 0.3s linear, background-color 0.3s linear;
transition: border-color 0.3s linear, background-color 0.3s linear;
}
That is the correct place to edit, it won’t negatively effect any other parts of your site 
Awesome. Thanks very much 
You’re welcome!

Thank you, DLK
Hi!
I would like to remove the Author, Category and No Comments info from all posts. Can you please help me with what I need to do?
Regards
Hey dynamikmedia!
You can accomplish this by opening the files inside of includes/post-templates and removing the code that displays those items inside of this section:
<div class="post-header">
<h2 class="title"><?php if( !is_single() ) { ?> <a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php } ?><?php the_title(); ?><?php if( !is_single() ) {?> </a> <?php } ?></h2>
<?php echo __('Posted by', NECTAR_THEME_NAME); ?> <?php the_author_posts_link(); ?> | <?php the_category(', '); ?> | <a href="<?php comments_link(); ?>">
<?php comments_number( __('No Comments', NECTAR_THEME_NAME), __('One Comment ', NECTAR_THEME_NAME), __('% Comments', NECTAR_THEME_NAME) ); ?></a>
</div><!--/post-header-->
Thank you very much!
You’re welcome!
Hi!
I thought it will be easy for me to fixed that issue but when i tried to accomplish it, i rather got confused with the file system. Can you please verify the exact path and a filename which i supposed to fixed / update? I have tried the following file but unable to produce the desired result.
Regards
wp-content/themes/salient/includes/post-templates/entry.php
Sure, are you using WordPress 3.6?
I am currently using Wordpress 3.5.2
That’s the problem then. You need to edit the files inside of includes/post-templates-pre-3-6 if you’re not using WP 3.6 
Hi ThemeNectar,
One more thing before our site goes live! We added our logo and noticed something that maybe you can assist with.
When scrolling, the logo size adjust to respond to the user. This is causing pixelating of the logo. Also, on the home page, the pixelation doesn’t resolve into a clear image.
Is there a way around this? User error maybe?
http://ciom.crushitstage.comThanks again 
Hey kenc138!
It appears you’ve uploaded a logo that’s way too big for your header and the browser is resizing it down. It would be a lot easier of the browser if you uploaded a logo with the dimensions closer to what you set as your logo height in the admin panel. For example, you’ve set your logo height at 75px but uploaded it at 585px tall.
Thank you again for the quick update! Only issue I’m still seeing is that the search bar seems to be typing test backwards. Is this a known bug or easily fixable with line code?

Thanks again!
You’re welcome!
There was never an issue regarding that for me to fix. That’s a pretty strange glitch you’re having – have you checked if one of your plugins is causing it?
Is it possible to make the video cover the whole slide? I am adding a video..but it only its added like a box inside the slider… Thanks
FJSURF,
The Salient slider only supports placing the video on the left side as seen in the demo. However, since WP 3.6 there is a fullscreen button on the self hosted slider.
How can I add a portfolio slider for a specific portfolio? Thanks!
Hey tbrady8053!
What exactly do you mean? Are you wondering how to add a gallery like this? http://themenectar.com/demo/salient/portfolio/old-tv/
Hi -
On the home extended page: “We do great work – Here’s a bit of the most recent with the portfolio” scroll.
We have different portfolio categories, and the only code I see is: [recent_projects]
Is there a code to pull portfolio specific categories?
Yes, when you add the shortcode there is a place to select what category will display as long as you’re using a relatively new version of the theme.
What is the code I should input there?
Well, you don’t have to write the shortcode yourself as you could simply generate it from the shortcode generator but the recent_projets shortcode accepts an attribute for “category”. Here’s an example below:
[recent_projects category="illustration"]
Hello,
Was able to fix my portfolio with the instructions for wordpress 3.6 upgrade.
But my blog page is all out of wack and I dont know how to fix it
Neither Masonry or standerd style work
I’m using Masonry at the moment … I can’t see any other blogs to text at the moment
any way to fix this?
Hey ekasoa! Have you upgraded to version 1.7.2? There should be no remaining blog conflicts and all formats should work fine.
I re-downloaded the file and uploaded a fresh to my ftp, but it didnt work … or do a get 1.7.2 another way as on the the theme page is only say 1.7 and in the changle log it only had up to 1.7.1?
The theme page is still highlight 1.7 because I still want to have a banner for the major recent new features rather than a banner that just says “WP 3.6 bug fixes”. I updated the changelog this morning, but v1.7.2 has been available for download for 24 hours now on ThemeForest. After you update, just make sure no posts have the post format “image” assigned. I just found out that for whatever reason, WordPress might assign some posts as that when upgrading versions whether or not the theme supports it.
Hi, why cannot I completely see my Homeslider in Iphone? Only a part of it. What have I made wrong?
Thanks
Hey Mashmash, thanks for purchasing the theme! If you paste in your URL for me to check I will let you know what’s going on 
Thanks!
Hey, Thanks
Since you’re not using the actual slider captions and rather placing your captions on your images, it’s only expected that they would clip when viewing on a phone. However, all you need to do is add this into your custom css box in the theme options panel and play with the value a little to make it fit perfectly for your scenario 
body .orbit-wrapper #featured article, body .orbit-wrapper, body .orbit-wrapper #featured {
height: 190px!important;
}
Unfortunately, I do not quite understand you, it would be good if you would tell me exactly I shall insert it in which folder or where exact like it means and as of where. Thanks
Your custom css box is inside of the theme options panel right in the general settings tab near the bottom 
Ok, and where must i paste it? at the beginning? Or before body? Thanks
Mash, I think you’re still looking in the wrong location – it’s just a text box in the admin panel inside of the theme options panel. It’s not in a file so I don’t know what you mean by “before the body”.
Hey, i’m Sorry.So, I have inserted it in orbit.css completely at the end. On my Iphone this is part really, however, in my laptop one sees only.
Thanks
Mash,
use this css snippet instead:
@media only screen
and (min-width : 1px) and (max-width : 1000px) {
body .orbit-wrapper #featured article, body .orbit-wrapper, body .orbit-wrapper #featured {
height: 190px!important;
}
}
Hey, Thank you so much.
No problem!
Still waiting for a response to my Ticket #79932, opened 3 days ago!
I apologize for not getting back to you on the support forum yet. Usually I only answer a few questions on the weekends, but this weekend I was working all day since to get 1.7.1 and 1.7.2 completed so I was unable to answer many questions.
Hi Guys,
Since 1.7 i’ve got problems with the portfolio slider… Any indication what i have to do?
i just read the post above….
Hey falkster,
just let me know if you need any help with this as well 
I don’t know if it’s only me, but when I updated to the latest WordPress version, my portfolio images for each portfolio entry (the image slides) no longer appear. I left a private ticket a few days ago, but haven’t heard back from anyone yet. Is there anyone else who is experiencing this? It’s a big deal, as I am no longer able to show my work to perspective clients.
Hello acmediaservices,
I’m sorry you didn’t see the posts I’ve made on here regarding how the galleries will work in 3.6 for upgrading users. I’ve also starred a ticket on the support forum from a user who asked this as well: http://themenectar.ticksy.com/ticket/59452/
Please check that out and let me know if you need further clarification 
Also, I apologize for not getting back to you on the support forum yet. Usually I only answer a few questions on the weekends but this weekend I was working all day since to get 1.7.1 and 1.7.2 completed so I was unable to answer many questions. Sorry!
I know you are good at getting back to me and others. I wanted to know if anyone else was having the issue as well. I visited the link you posted and read some of it. When do you think the new Salient version will be ready? Also, if there is something I need to know about installing the new version (perhaps a step by step guide) and before I do it, to know what basic features I adjusted (no added code, but a plug in), might be reconfigured back to default or if any content created with short codes will be deleted. Do you have a mailing list where we can receive an email notification about holding off on WordPress updates or just in general? What I learned is to not upgrade to the latest version of WordPress until I read what the theme developer and others are saying about the latest version. When do you estimate the new Salient version will be ready? I’m sure it’s very complicated to do what you do, but just asking. Thanks 
acmediaservices,
the new version of Salient has already been released – 1.7.2 went live yesterday 
There is nothing you really need to do or prepare for other than the way galleries are now handled as explained in the ticket I starred. Thank you for being very respectful, I really appreciate it!
Thank you as well
What are the steps to install the new theme version? I did not install a child theme. I think you mentioned something about deleting the theme and installing the new version. I just want to make sure that I do it the right way. Your help is surely appreciated
Thank you, Aviad 
I followed the delete theme and install of the new theme – I see my portfolio image but the gallery for each portfolio doesn’t work – just one image. Any info on how to fix this?
Yeah, as the ticket explains the old way of creating galleries isn’t there anymore and the theme has moved into the proper way of doing it, which is to use the built-in WordPress gallery feature. All you have to do is insert a standard WordPress gallery into your post/project and then select the box for “enable slider” to turn that gallery into the Salient gallery. This is covered in more detail in the ticket and a video is provided at the bottom demonstrating this in action.
I tried to create a gallery but it doesn’t work. How can we make it so that the image click in the portfolio will open up the page with the number of sliders just like before? Your help is appreciated.
Where is the link to the tutorial video for this? Much appreciated 
I hope it will look and operate the same…as I love this theme 
Skip to 2:45 in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Ql7B-mjDBI
Will review in a few minutes. Thank you 
Well here I come again 
Thanks for the update! I see you just implemented now the opportunity to use a “light” or “dark” header. Thank you so much for that! 
But I got another problem now. I can’t tell what it is. I’m running a film production and the main parts of my website are the videos. Well I’m aware of the point that I need to upload both a M4V- and an OGV-file. But everytime I open the site up in my Firefox-Browser the clicked video loads but never starts!
I tried to open up the website with Google’s Chrome. It worked perfectly. But I think it is more important that almost everyone could watch my videos not only Chrome-Users.
Now the strange thing: The HTML-5 video in your Salient-Demo works perfectly in my Firefox-Browser!
What is the problem here? I really don’t get it…
It would be totally emberassing if people can’t watch those videos.
I need your help.
Greetings! Atilla
Hey Atilla! This sounds to me like you just need to ad the video types to htaccess file so your server can interpret them. Open up your .htaccess file located in the root of your WordPress install and add this in at the bottom:
AddType video/mp4 mp4
AddType video/mp4 m4v
AddType video/ogg ogv
AddType video/webm webm
AddType video/webm webmv
MARRY ME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SOLVED
TOP-Service, TOP-Quality, TOP,TOP,TOP!
1-million-thumbs up
Should I eventually post this also to the Forum? This sounds like many other people could need this kind of information.
Thank you, man. Really appreciate it.
You’re very welcome!
I think i’m going to add it into the user guide because I’ve answered this before a few times – seems to be a reoccurring serve issue affecting a small portion of buyers.
Cheers!
Hi Nectar,
Awesome support and updates.
One question for new updates.
Will the revolution slider be including in the next update of future?
I think it would be a great asset to include it in the future that will make the theme even more appealing with more design possibillties.
Greets, Dutchflow
Hey Dutchflow! I wouldn’t rule it out completely but at this point I have other things higher on the priority list that I feel need to be implemented.
