Hey there. I was wondering.. Is it possible to change the header color in just one page? Can i create an exception in CSS to do that, or something similar? Thank you in advance.
Hey, all you’d have to do is add the body class that targets you desired page ID onto the rule:
e.g.
body.page-id-23 #page-header-bg h1, body.page-id-23 #page-header-bg .subheader {
color: #333!important;
}
This page id class can be found on every page by viewing the source and looking at the class on the body tag.
Cheers!
ThemeNectar,
Thank you very much for your answer. Yes, it worked for the font color of the Header. But i guess i explained it all wrong!
What i want to do is change the color of the Header that contains the Menu Options and the logo (you have it, by default in Salient Options, to be chosen between Dark or White).
Is it still possible?
Thank you again.
Hey,
as of 2.1.5 you actually have color pickers for that if you select “custom” for the header color scheme. However, changing it to be a different color just on one page will require the same technique described as above – use the body class first to target the element for that page only.
Cheers!
Nice work on the theme… love it.. I just want to know how to change the homeslider button to the standard large button used in shortcodes.
Thanks chemc! Why not use the Nectar Slider? It offers default functionality that allows you to have either a solid color or see through button. If you still want to use the home slider for whatever reason, just let me know and I’ll make the css snippet for you 
awesome… ill give it a go… I had totally overlooked hahaha
Haha, sounds good 
Cheers
It’s working a treat… thanks again…
You’re very welcome!
Such a great theme. Nice work, this is definitely the best wordpress theme I’ve used.
I have one issue that I can’t figure out. I’m using the Nectar Slider (fullscreen width) and for some reason sometimes it loads in a boxed layout and only after refreshing a couple times will the element actually stretch full width.
I’ve purged cache on my wp install, cleared cache on browsers, tried on multiple devices and it still seems to happen.
Any idea what I’m doing wrong?
This page for example does not reliably display a full-width nectar slide at the top.
http://thorn.wpengine.com/the-issue/The nectar shortcode is the first thing on the page and is as such: [nectar_slider full_width=”true” location=”The Issue” slider_height=”310” autorotate=”“]
Your help is much appreciated!
Thanks so much adilabs!
By default, using the full width functionality on a nectar slider will be suppressed on a sidebar layout as to not overlap the sidebar’s content. However using a parallax nectar slider will actually get moved up to the top above everything else in order to correctly achieve its effect and is also available for full width usage even on a sidebar page. Therefore all you need to do is add that effect if you want the full width slider on your sidebar page. Turn your shortcode into:
[nectar_slider parallax="true" full_width=”true” location=”The Issue” slider_height=”310” autorotate=”“]
Cheers 
Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, setting parallax to true is still leaving inconsistent behavior. For now, I’ll use the header image functionality for pages with sidebars. That works consistently (the only downside is that the content is left aligned and span6). Oh well, not too big a deal.
I have noticed something that is starting to concern me, when updating content on pages, the permalink is changing without warning to “auto-draft-5”, “auto-draft-6”, etc. How can I turn this off??!
Thanks again for your help!
Hey again!
that’s pretty strange – there’s no known issue with a parallax slider sometimes not becoming full width.
As for your permalink issue – that sounds like a raw WordPress issue rather than anything with the theme per say. Unfortunately I would have to do research on the subject the same as you because I have never heard of that before.
Hello-
I can’t seem to get an image to show up on my About Me page http://www.stephenlease.com/about-me-2/ ,
Thoughts?
SDL
Hey SDL, please be a little more specific in regards to where you’re trying to place this image so I know what you’re referring to on your page. There’s lots of ways and places you could be trying to insert an image (slider, animated images, team member image, full width image, page header image etc..) and in since you’re using the dummy data layout it’s impossible to tell.
Cheers
Hi ThemeNectar,
The full width nectar slider currently stops autoplaying when the user interacts and navigates the slider using bullets or arrows. How to make the slide to continue autoplay even if the user navigates with the slides ?
Thanks
Hey deepakkumarv,
you can remove this functionality by opening the nectar-slider.js file, which is located in the js folder. Once in there, run a search for:onTouchMove: clearAutoplay
to end up at the right place and delete the entire line. Just remember to now delete the comma in the line above it because that will now be the last parameter in the config object.
Cheers
Hi there, I’m going to be buying this theme this week. It’s a crazy good theme. Just have one question about the shop. I’m going to have different categories of items for sale. Is there an option to have different categories show giving the client option to choose, or does everything get lumped in together?
I appreciate the insight. Thanks!!
Thanks sbrasier!
WoooCommerce comes with default functionality allowing you to display your categories or you can even set up custom pages designed how you want and use the WooCommerce shortcode for displaying your desired category.
Cheers!
Thanks fantastic news…thanks for the quick reply!
You’re welcome!
Hi there, I have been searching the comments – but no luck unfortunately. How do I remove the portfolio title and 4 squares (as shown here – http://www.samueljustice.net/portfolio/battlefield4/) as I do not want anything above the video (apart from the header).
Hey samueljustice00!
Add this to your custom css box:
#portfolio-nav {
display: none!important;
}
Cheers 
Hey, it got rid of the 4 boxes, but the page title is still there.
Thanks 
Sorry, when you said you wanted the header I thought you meant the title header not the nav 
Change that above snippet to:
.section-title {
display: none!important;
}
Hello! it’s possible to have several blog pages or portfolio pages in the same website?
Hey mzuker, it indeed is. You can assign the portfolio layout to as many pages you want and choose category sets in the portfolio display settings box. As for the blog, you can just set up a nested category system where each parent category would be the separate “blog” and would contain children categories with in it.
Cheers
Thanks. By the way when you will release the next bug fix update? We want one more update before release our new page 
Haha, the next release will be a combination of new features & bug fixes and it will still be a few weeks.
Cheers!
Hi, cant find this anywhere so how do we change colour of text on top of header graphic in pages. Its always white. I guess its custom css? Thanks.
Hey webworld360,
you can use this snippet:
#page-header-bg h1, #page-header-bg .subheader {
color: #333!important;
}
Cheers 
Thank you!
You’re welcome!
Mm, just noticed the portfolio sort only works on the categories on the page that you are on, and not the next page. It ignores those on another page. Any way to have all of them sortable even if they are on another page? This seems a weird way to work, thank you
Hey again,
it works this way because only the posts loaded on that page are available for sorting. It would require a whole different approach with AJAX to pull items outside the page and insert them onto the page every time you switched the filter.
Cheers
Ah, ok, thats a shame as was trying to use as a search my my work. See what i mean here, http://thevirtualtouragency.com/portfolio/ Any advice welcome, thanks
You can always lose the pagination as you only have 3 pages – it wouldn’t be too overwhelming to let them all load on one page so that they are all available for sorting immediately.
Cheers
Yes, that’s an idea, but was thinking further ahead when portfolio grows. I’ll think about it, Thanks
Ideally I’d like all categories on one page…
By removing the pagination all categories will be on one page, should work the way you’re looking for 
I noticed that you only use shortcodes to link images in Salient. With this there is a conundrum. How do you use a Hyper Link with a shortcode?! Example:
Captivating Design
image_with_animation animation=”Fade In” image_url=”http://themenectar.com/demo/salient/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/triple.png” link_url=”http://www.themenectar.com” - Any help would be appreciated. . .Hey jeremydarko, when you paste code into the comments please use pre tags so it’s readable
like this
To answer your question – images are not only usable through a shortcode, I just offer an image animation shortcode, of course you can still use the add media button for a standard image if you please. However if you want to link an animated image just switch to the text tab on your editor and wrap the shortcode in a standard HTML link like this:
<a href="http://www.themenectar.com"> [image_with_animation] </a>
Cheers
Thanks for the advice!!! You are appreciated
You’re very welcome!
Hello! Any way to add a top/bottom border option to full width sections?
Hey renesbitt! You could add a class to your full width section shortcode and then target that class in css for the borders. e.g
[full_width_section class="my-borders"]and then this will go in your custom css box:
.my-borders {
border-top: 3px solid #444;
border-bottom: 3px solid #444;
}
Hi there, I read a recent previous comment that another user couldn’t see any of the nectar shortcodes in the wordpress editor…..I’m now having the same problem (I previously could see them). Was any resolution reached for this?
Thanks!
Hey weens! What version are you on? As of 2.1.5 the shortcode generator was moved on top of the editor as a blue button next to the “Add Media” button.
Cheers
There’s a bug with the primary navigation menu when resizing the browser window.
Replication Steps (Windows – Chrome/Firefox) 1) Resize screen 2) Click menu button
The menu will overlap the navigation/header, due to a gap above it. Any ideas to fix?
Hello darrenkitlor,
I am unable to replicate the behavior you’re describing and that has not been reported by others. You can see this happen on the live demo?
We have the secondary navigation menu activated (with the social media icons). This is not present in the demo, afaik.
The use of the secondary navigation shouldn’t effect it. I have just doubled checked on a local copy of the theme and there’s no difference: http://i.imgur.com/dfC5CXS.png
Also, even though it goes without saying, ensure you’re not on a really outdated version of the theme. If you are indeed on a fairly recent release, please open a ticket in regards to your issue with your URL and info so I can see what’s going on.
Thanks! 
I purchased it yesterday, should be newest?
Bug – Step 1 – Resize Window (Notice Gap)
http://imgur.com/IIZiHYpBug – Step 2 – Click Collapsible Menu Button (Gap Persists)
http://imgur.com/XxLNxmbBug – Step 3 – Refresh Page (Clears bugged gap)
http://imgur.com/JoF8YfbIt’s a lovely theme but I really don’t like to mess with the CSS for bugfixes by myself, when it undoubtedly impacts a few other users.
Yes, your version is fine then – but your gap shouldn’t be there. Please open the ticket with your URL as I requested so I can actually see the code – images are only so useful for dealing with mysterious issues 
In response to your second comment as I was writing to your previous one – As I mentioned, this is not an issue that’s been reported and is one that I can not replicate. Once I get your URL I will be able to see what’s going on better and help you out. I never said you had to mess with the css yourself. Whether the issue turns out to be a problem on your setup or some unknown bug in the theme – I’ll help you fix it.
Now how about that ticket? 
Hello ! I’m having a big issue with the back-end interface of your theme. It looks that it is impossible to use the file located in salient/nectar/options/css/option.css, because all the ”/” diseapered : my navigator is looking for http://crem.fr/wp-contentthemessalientnectaroptionshttp://www.crem.fr/wp-content/themes/salient/css/options.css?ver=1382376194, instead of http://crem.fr/wp-content/themes/salient/nectar/options.css?ver=1382376194. I hope you understood. In order to help you, I uploaded with this message two screenshots : https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/23883759/Archive.zip Thanks, Arthur
Hey Arthur! I responded to your ticket regarding this – I’ve heard this happen to one other buyer and the issue was server related. Please keep me in the loop in your ticket 
Cheers
I think it comes from our hosting provider too, even if they say it comes from your theme… However, I found a “solution”, by creating a folder called ” wp-contentthemessalientnectaroptions” and copying in needed files. It’s not perfect, but it works. Now, our association can enjoy a wonderful new website (http://www.crem.fr) thanks to you ! We have a lot of good feedbacks, everyone agrees on your good work (even if it can also be explained by the ugly design of our old website (crem.fr/ancien)). We also love the compatibility with smartphones and tablets. So, thank you !
I’m very glad you found a work around and it’s a shame your hosting company couldn’t help you! Enjoy your new site – looks great! 
Hello!
I have purchased this theme.
Do you know how to make the “header-secondary-outer” not to be fixed when scrolling down. I just want the regular menu to be fixed?
Regards Johan Nilsson
Hey Johan! That would require custom development at this time unfortunately there’s no quick css to make that function the way you’re describing.
Hi there, i’m trying to setup a slider with a video as background …. not working—- i tried also to import dummy file and it seems not to be working
Could you help me to solve the problem ?
wordpress.testonline.biz credentials
admin california09
Hey gfstudio,
I would change your credentials right away as you’re posting them in a public place that every one here can see.
1. You need to add this to your .htaccess file which is located in the root of your WordPress install:AddType video/mp4 mp4 AddType video/mp4 m4v AddType video/ogg ogv AddType video/webm webm AddType video/webm webmvYour particular server has not been set up to parse video files and that will fix it. You can see that I’ve went in and changed the src of the home slider video to be form my server and that one works.
2. You just needed to set up your front & posts page in the Settings > Reading tab of your admin panel. I’ve now assigned one of the home page layouts included in the dummy data to be the front page. If you’re wondering anything else about the dummy data file please check out the Dummy Data section in the user guide 
Cheers
I’m loving this theme. Thanks so much. I’m having difficulties embedding a youtube video at a particular size. It always seems to reset to the full width no matter what I do. I’ve tried putting the youtube video with the embed tags around it with the appropriate width and height. I’ve even tried putting in the iframe code in the text view of the page. Nothing seems to work.
Would appreciate your help. Thanks.
Hey snrodich! A video embed will always occupy 100% of the parent div because videos in Salient have to be responsive on different screen sizes and can not have a px width. If you want to size the video, place it inside of a column shortcode – what exactly are you trying to accomplish on the page?
Cheers
Just to help ThemeNectar selling (as i’m sure these comments have a nofollow option, so i’m not trying to rank higher, or anything) and you, future buyer, to see what’s possible with this theme other than the Demo Page, i dropped by to give you the link: www.kgest.pt.
As you see, it’s a corporate website, so i can assure you that the theme is super flexible and very powerful.
Thanks for providing us such a piece of work!
Hey jppmarujo – thanks so much for sharing your work! You’ve done a great job using the theme to make a unique and appealing site 
Cheers!
How can i delete the ítem “view larger” in the portfolio page?
Hey droopfish,
add this into your custom css box:
.portfolio-items .col .work-item .work-info a.pp {
display: none!important;
}
menu on top link to the middle of the page, so its not an external link but inside scrolling page Just in case you don’t get the other post; lets talk about one page one landing page.. Lets say on that landing page i have on the top header menu a menu called “skills” Skills info is in that same page, not on a black target page.. it is on the same home page.. so links on the header will be c alling a javascript? href=#skills? how to do that?
mahiette, You would need to use a plugin like this for animated scrolling: http://wordpress.org/plugins/page-scroll-to-id/ and as long as you have an element with the ID of skills in the page, your link of #skills to will lead to it.
Cheers
I have installed plugin, but now where i put this but on the header menu 
this is what the code needs to show based on the guilide of the plugins you just sent me and i just installed.
for those who like read other post.. this might save somebody else time…
download that app Nectar just post URL|-> http://wordpress.org/plugins/page-scroll-to-id/ then on appearance / menu / on the “screen option” on the top, select on “Show advanced” menu properties the “Link Relationship (XFN)” then you can make the atribute of rel=”m_PageScroll2id”
you add a new link for menu, URL|-> “www.example.com/webpage/#anchor” LINK RELATIONSHIP |-> “m_PageScroll2id”
then make sure on the page you ahve this html code. CODE|->
thank you very much
Thanks for posting your update mahiette and you’re welcome!
