Great! But i want the slider video sound stop when another video is play on top. It’s possible?

Hey wassaeu!

I’m slightly confused as to what you’re asking – are you saying that you’re playing a video on top of a video background and you need to mute the video background? Can you supply a URL so I can see as well?

Thanks :)

Yes. That’s what I meant. www.vaseaonel.ro

Thanks for the link – I’ll try and address this in the next update that should be out this week :)

Cheers

Hi, I want to use this theme for my website’s landing page (only). So the Home Page will be the only page required. We will have a complex dynamic website completely unrelated to the landing page. The questions are:

1) Is it possible to freely use your theme (after buying it for $55) for just the landing page?

2) Also we are using meteor platform for the website functionality/coding so will this wordpress theme work seamlessly alongside the rest of our website?

3) Most importantly we are not building our website on wordpress. So will having a wordpress landing page be a problem?

Best, R

You’re welcome :)

Yes, you can share with your developers as long as you’re only deploying it on one site in the end.

Unfortunately I don’t have an HTML version, but since you seem you know what you’re doing it wouldn’t be too hard to port a single page into raw html.

great. One more question. If I use the regular version ($55) for just my landing page(to register) and use my entire complex website on a completely different platform (node.js). from a licensing perspective will I be ok to charge users based on the website functionalities (we are creating an education tool)? This will have nothing to do with the wordpress theme landing page (apart from registration to use the edu tool on the landing page)

Of course, that’s fine! :)

Hi. How can i set full video background like in demo version?

Hey wassaeu, have you read the documentation? There’s also an included dummy data file which will set up multiple instances of the Nectar Slider containing video slides. Here’s a tutorial on it as well: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FLU9Pxo_RD8

Cheers!

I’m loading the theme onto a new install to craft a new site. Thought maybe a good idea would be to create one on my old server-perfect it over the next week or so-then cut and paste all the code, so when I change hosting companies, I can upload files + cut and paste.

Have a website in an hour or two =)

Have a question. Read the PDF and watched the videos-but I don’t seem to see the recommended dimensions we should use for pictures. Could you tell me how big my art needs to be to display well in the full slider?

Thanks so much!

That’s great to hear and you’re in luck! The next release due out this week greatly extends the available fonts, pushing the total number to over 600 up from 22 :)

Cheers!

...think I’m…gonna…cry.....

You’re giving me Christmas presents….and it ain’t even DECEMBER! WooHAW.

BTW—passed on the link to your theme with a few friends and my buddy in the UK. They are overly impressed (grin).

Thanks so much Jaime, you rock!

Hi There, a presale question.

I would like to have a transparent navigation menu when seeing the slider, but only when you scroll down you see the narrower navigation with a background.

Example: http://garrisonbespoke.com/

is it maybe possible to use another menu plugin to create this effect?

I have reasonable skill to customize themes, can you guide me in the right direction when I bought this theme?

Best regards,

Coen Hallie

Hey Coen,

there’s no option for this and it would indeed require customization. There would be a good deal involved with that too so unless you’re comfortable coding that effect and already know what’s involved, I would suggest contract a developer for an hour or so to get it wrapped up for you :)

ThemeNectar,

in the mega menu option, If I don’t want to have header text, is there a way to make it not visible? I just want to hover over and display 4 columns without header text.

thanks, hopefully my question makes sense.

You’re welcome!

You could use the nth-child selector to target the column to still display. Here’s an example:

header#top nav > ul > li.megamenu > ul > li:nth-child(2) > a {
  display: block!important;
}

Excellent: Dude your are awesome!

Thanks a lot! Glad I could help :)

Cheers

Hey there,

I’m working on the theme for my friend (I have time, He doesn’t) and he wants to have the full width recent works slider but wants to have the option of view larger or page (like the normal viewing option) and was wondering if he could do the same in the portfolio area. Full width portfolio?

Cheers and keep up the insane work.

Hey emgreenman,

There’s no options for this yet, but they will most likely get added in soon :)

Cheers

Replying to another, but not to me?—‘

Sorry saylimane, there’s still a queue of questions to answer – I wasn’t avoiding you! I’ve answered now :)

Hi. I just updated to version 2.0 and now I have 2 sliders (home slider and nectar slider). Home slider is the default. How do I switch to the nectar slider? Thanks and awesome new version! Will

Hey Will! All you have to do is unassign the home template from the page attributes box on the right hand side when editing your home page :)

Cheers!

Hi. Why when we choose to have pagination on our portfolio, then we change to page 2 give us 404 error? We use always latest version.

You need to enter in a custom slug in your portfolio options tab (anything other than “portfolio” such as “work” or “project”) and then resave your permalinks in Settings > Permalinks.

Cheers

Hi

I have a problem. My side doesn`t have Polish characters(open sans fonts). Should I replace the fonts? http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/open-sans

Tomek

Hey Vehr!

You can do that or you can simply take care of it in the typography options tab in your theme options panel. Watch this and skip to 1:12 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sg62_DU8200

Hello,

I wanted to have something. If I want to change the home page, is what I can? I wish I change the portfolio so that it displays’ colone the service and about us. Possible?

Hey saylimane! You are free to build your own home page however you want using all the various elements Salient provides. I’m not quite understanding what is it you’re asking specifically because of translation issues but if you could try and elaborate more I’ll be glad to answer!

Cheers

Thank you for your answer.

So here, I did a little sketch: http://sooshamedia.com/Sans-titre-3.jpg

I wish I organize my home page in the following manner.

Is that possible? :)

Thanks for the sketch!

You can do all of that except for the recent work carousel has to be one row instead of two.

Cheers!

OK, so im adding the code into your video text area in the home slider. Does your code strip or add any other code? I’d like to look into the code of that page to see, what page do i edit? YOu’ll see progress here, but notice (at time of writing) on the next slide no tour appears, thanks for any help. http://www.thevirtualtouragency.com

Hey webworld360, please try and make duplicate posts – I responded to your first one regarding :)

Cheers!

You hadn’t at the time and thought I’d got forgotten!

I’d never forget you webworld360 :D

Hi! How can i add others fonts?

Hey easyisrael! See this in regards for the time being http://themenectar.ticksy.com/ticket/60614/search/ , but I most likely am going to be adding hundreds of more built-in fonts in the next update :)

Cheers!

Thk for help!

You’re welcome :)

Hi, amazing theme.

I have one small issue – I added dummy links into several of the Social Media placements in the admin to see what they looked like on the front of the site.

I’ve built up the theme as I want and have removed many links from the social media area, but now the links/icons wont disappear from the front of the site, and all have with my main url on them.

Is there anywhere I can delete the cache for these as it must be somewhere as only the few I added dummy links to show? I’m guessing when admin setting are saved its written to a file somehow rather than the db?

I don’t run cache on the site via plugin nor in my browser so I know it must be the theme or the admin theme setting remembering I added links.

I just want the icons to go away on the front-end.

Thanks, dp

Hey ICWebmaster!

You’re looking in the tab that you define the URL’s for your various social media icons, not the tab where you assign them to locations. That’s done in your footer & header options tab :)

Also the reason why your URL appeared in front of the social media url is because you didn’t put “http://” in the beginning of the url. Without that the browser will determine it’s a relative link within your site and append it onto the end of your url.

Cheers

Hi, Thanks for you quick message. It would appear you are correct – and I’m an idiot! I’ve gone in to that section several times and it didn’t register that’s where I could solve my issue! I’m very, very stupid.

Thanks for all your help :-)

Cheers.

No worries at all mate! Glad i’ve helped you sort it :)

Cheers!

How easy is it to setup the boxed version of this theme ?

One click in the options panel :)

Cheers

Hi. Great theme. Is it poss to add gogole maps in there somehwhere? Can html (iFrames in particular be used)? Ive managed to add small map to portfolio by pasting code into the extra content area at botttom. Id really like to add google map to the nectar slider either fullscreen or maybe as small map with text alongside it. Ive lost my page you had built with the video and text, but am sure the vid could be replaced with the map. Thanks

Thanks a lot webworld360!

The video embed box does not strip any code, it’s most likely not working due to the nature of placing it in a parallax slider in general. Other raw html will display normally. I’m going to see what I can do about making buttons on the nectar slider capable of popping open Google maps in addition to video embeds. That would be a nice and practical solution for using maps within the slider :)

Cheers!

Mm.. Good to know. Since the chrome update no iframe embeds work anywhere so once that’s sorted I’ll go back to that method. I’ve deleted all of it for now but it did look great. The tour on top of the image! I’ll post back once it’s sorted and let you look. Strange it worked on one slide in ie, but on the next slide it was blank… hmmm…wonder if it would work on another type of slider. I won’t be giving up cos it was just the look I was after. Thanks.

Let me know if you end up sorting it out webworld360 :)

Cheers

Hey Nectar,

Is there a way to link a photo in a portfolio page (or on any page) to be viewed in lightbox? (for instance, your page http://themenectar.com/demo/salient/portfolio/scouter/ – would it be possible to have a viewer click the scouter image and have it be opened in lightbox)

Also, where in the theme would I be able to disable/edit the ‘view larger’ button that appears on hover on the main portfolio page?

What I’m basically trying to do is have a user be able to click an image on the main portfolio page – which would take the user to that project – where I would have all of the images from a project located (that could be clicked and viewed in lightbox).

Hopefully that all made sense. It’s kind of hard to describe what I’m trying to do, because it’s different than the way the demo is set up.

Thanks!

Forgot to ask: is there was a way to parallax two (or more) images using this theme, rather than an image and text?

Hey TheRooster!

1/3. You can link any image you want in a lightbox by simply adding the class “pp” onto the link. Here’s an example of how it would look in the text tab on your editor:

<a class="pp" href="YOUR_LARGER_IMG_SRC"><img src="YOUR_IMG_SRC" /></a>

2. See this in regards: http://themenectar.ticksy.com/ticket/46431/search/

In response to your second comment – You could insert a raw html img into the input field for the slider and it should work :)

Cheers!

Awesome theme! I was just wondering how to create a “recent work” carousel with no spaces and stuff like the one on the homepage of the demo version? I was also wondering if it was possible to have a twitter feeder that acts like the testimonials slider, I have seen many websites have this and would love to include it into mine! Thank you for your time!

Thanks for your prompt reply! Well, the thing is that every time I try to add something to my portfolio (which is what I suppose the widget is connected to) the images happen to appear enormous! Is there a reason for that or should I just keep adding more images and then it will auto adjust and look like the one on the demo? Thanks for the help!

Sorry by the way, it’s my first time using a portfolio and a widget like this one on a WP website. Im a complete newbie here!

I’m not exactly sure what you’re describing, but I’d suspect you just need to add more images (you need a minimum of 3). If you want open a ticket with your URL I’d also be glad to look!

Cheers :)

I am thinking about purchasing this theme. Is it possible to make the header menu transparent and have it float on top of a full width slider or page background image? I would like to have an effect similar to this:

http://garrisonbespoke.com/

Hey xiant, that would require custom modification as it’s not a built in option.

Cheers
