Hello I’ve been having problems with a banner that used to work fine but now it’s not showing up… i’ve already tried reuploading the image and recreating the banner, reinputting the code… I’m pretty much out of options at this point could you please help me out
http://utopikaproject.com/about/about-us2/Hey jesusroj – I can see a script error on your page, but will need to log into your setup to test what’s causing it. Please open a ticket in regards and i’ll investigate for you 
Cheers
Hey, sorry if this has been asked…
Some of the captions on the demo have an opaque background around the text. All I can see is that you have used a with display: inline to get it. But what is the best way to apply this? Is it a built in feature?
Hey siwise!
When you’re creating/editing your slides there’s a checkbox to enable that transparent background if you want it on the caption
Cheers!
Hi! Just purchased this theme beautiful theme. It’s my first time working with a Wordpress theme and I’m super excited.
I just tried uploading my logo into the header. I input it’s exact size (300×85 px), but it’s showing up much larger than it is. Any thoughts as to why this may be happening?
It can be viewed here: www.aa-creative.net/wp
Hey martincaaron! You only have an input to define your logo height not the width as well – so just enter in “85” (without the px) in
Cheers
I took at the specified dimensions and now it’s appearing much smaller, but still not the exact dimensions I would like.
The logo will default to “30” unless you enter in a height – as I mentioned above just enter in “85” and it will display as expected
Woo, all fixed! Thanks for a speedy response!
You’re welcome!
Do you know the exact width of the home slider if it isn’t being used full screen?
Hey again – the home slider doesn’t have an option to not be full width. I’m slightly confused as to what you’re trying to figure out, could you elaborate a tad more?
Cheers
Hi again, I was wondering if there is a way to change the background on the site? I’m looking to upload an image for the background and I couldn’t find the options in the settings.
Thanks in advance!
Hey madferretproductions,
You can use this in your custom css box:
body {
background-image: url("your-image-src.jpg");
}
body .home-wrap, body .container-wrap, body .page-header-no-bg, {
background-color: transparent!important;
}
Great, thanks for your help on this!
You’re welcome!
Thanks for the awesome theme!! I dont have any IT/programming background and I have a noob question. So anyways, how do I make the secondary menu collapse (while still maintaining the main menu at the top) while scrolling down? Hope you understand what I mean. hehe. THANKS IN ADV!
Hey theblindjedi, unfortunately that would require some custom javascript development as there would need to be an event to change both of the positions depending on scroll position – I’ve noted it for the wishlist though!
Cheers
Im trying to put a link into the description area of the team bio but when i do that the entire description disappears – any work around to resolve this?
Hey clowd24 – yes, just use single quotes for your link instead of double to not interfere with the shortcode quotes .g
<a href="http://themenectar.com">A link!</a>
Cheers
Hi there,
how can I remove the “Menu Icon” the three lines, when viewing the webpage on my mobile device. I don’t need a Menu, so it’s empty and on the mobile device the Menu Icon still appears.
Thanks in advance
Hey tmrevlje!
Enter this into your custom css box:
@media only screen and (min-width : 1px) and (max-width : 1000px) {
#toggle-nav { display: none!important; }
}
Cheers
This is what I have in my Custom CSS box, the below code is from a ticket created on your forum to get rid of the Search. But I am guessing that shouldn’t affect the snippet you gave me for the Menu Icon?
@media only screen and (min-width : 1px) and (max-width : 1000px) { #toggle-nav { display: none!important; } }
mobile-menu #mobile-search, header#top nav ul #search-btn {
display: none!important; }
@media only screen and (min-width : 1px) and (max-width : 1000px) { #toggle-nav { display: none!important; } }
.
mobile-menu #mobile-search, header#top nav ul #search-btn { display: none!important;}
ignore the 3rd comment, with the 4th # is missing infront of mobile, apparently if there’s a hash tag infront of the text comment box ignores it and cuts off the text…
Hey tmrevlje, you should code pre tags to show code in there so it formats it correctly:
like this!
and no your two snippets won’t conflict – if you’re having issues with it please try to paste the contents of your custom css box here again inside of pre tags so I can correctly see what you have
Cheers
@media only screen and (min-width : 1px) and (max-width : 1000px) {
#toggle-nav { display: none!important; }
}
#mobile-menu #mobile-search, header#top nav ul #search-btn {
display: none!important;
}
Ok thanks! So this is what I have inside my Custom CSS box at the moment. The Menu Icon on my Mobile Device is still showing though, also in browser when I manually resize the browser window to the point it responses.
Looks good – I think I just forgot to make the new rule specific enough. Change it to this:
@media only screen and (min-width : 1px) and (max-width : 1000px) {
body header#top #toggle-nav { display: none!important; }
}
Dude you’re just awesome. Works like a charm. Thanks a bunch.
You’re very welcome!
Cheers
This is an amazing theme! I love it! One question:
How can I make the buttons on the “Home Slider” filled? Right now they are transparent buttons.
Thanks ThemeNectar for the awesome theme!
Thanks a lot christianinternetd!
The home slider doesn’t have any other color options for the button by default so it would require custom css – but if you opt out of that slider and use the Nectar Slider, you’ll have color & styling options for your buttons
Cheers
If I use the Nectar slider, I cannot embed videos from Vimeo. I would rather use the Nectar Slider, though. Do you have any suggestions?
What CSS Selector should I use to modify the buttons in the Home Slider?
Hey again – you can use this in your custom css box:
#featured article .post-title a {
background-color: #f64141!important;
border: 0px!important;
}
Cheers
Hi there,
Can you tell me how I can “disable” shadows on images? It appears even on logo?
Thanks, Milan
Hey Milan! There’s no css rule in Salient to add shadows to all images globally – can you share your URL so I can see where that’s coming from?
Cheers
See the logo and “featured” image on blog post. http://sourcepixels.com/blog/
Not a good look for sure – it’s coming from your plugin called captions. I have no idea why it would globally target images, but once you remove it the shadows will go away
Cheers
Thanks for information that something is wrong with plugin. I`ve just deactivated “Revolution Slider” plugin, and now is OK. I really do not know why Revolution is problem. Thankfully, I do not need it.
That’s odd it was coming from Revolution Slider – others use that without the shadows getting globally placed on all images – from what I remember it was coming from a stylesheet named “captions” so maybe there’s something you just need to delete in there if you ever need to use it again
Cheers
How are the actual pages constructed? Is there a page builder? Or is it built using the shortcodes?
Also, how easy is it to create a landing page, and remove the navigation to keep people focused on one action?
Looks great and I think this is the theme for us, but just want to know a little functionality… Thanks!
Hey therman!
1. There’s a visual shortcode generator – if you scroll down in the main features list you’ll see a section that gives you a preview of the interface: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient/tour/shortcodes.png
2. You’d need to use some custom css to remove the nav on that page.
Cheers
Hi, Great update! I’m in love with this theme all over again! Just one quick question: When I open my website in my mobile, I get the wordpress mobile theme as the default choice. I can switch it to Salient by choosing “Classic”. Any way I can disable this option so people only see the salient version?
Best, Lena
Hey Lena! Having a WP mobile theme override the active theme is not a default feature by WP and is most likely getting added in from a plugin you have or by a hosting feature. I would check those two places to disable it for good
Cheers
Hi, Is there any way I can embed a Vimeo or Youtube video in the Nectar slider (like you can in the Home Slider)?
Thanks.
Hey divadwg, you can paste a video embed code into the caption field, but would probably need to make some css up to format it similar to the home slider.
Cheers
Hi there,
Sorry to add to your pile of questions!
Is there any way to make a team page with the same layout as the portfolio page? Id like to see all the team on one page, and also allow the user to click on a team member and view their details and showreel? Basically exactly like the portfolio. When I go to make a new page with the portfolio template, it automatically brings in all the portfolio content I have, so I just end up with another portfolio page. Any why round this?
Hope that makes sense. Thanks! Jack
Hey Jack! You can easily select what categories will display on your portfolio using the new portfolio shortcode added in v2.5 so you can display just your “team” category on any given page.
Cheers!
hi ThemeNectar, thanks for your quick reply,
unfortunately the code did not work in my template, the hearts are still there… can you provide me another code that will work?
By poster I meant the the entry “post by ….” and I also want the comments removed (as for now there are no anyways, and I will not use this feature in the future). What’s the custom code for the removal of “posted by” and “comments”?
Also I want to remove the date. How do I do this?
I am using the latest nectar theme, purchased two days ago.
I appreciate your help!
article.post .post-content {
padding-left: 0px!important;
}
article.post .post-meta {
display: none!important;
}
(make sure you’re not pasting in pre tags around the snippets)
This is for removing the author & comments:
.meta-comment-count, .meta-author {
display: none!important;
}
Also you don’t need to start new comments for replies – they show up the same in my queue if you reply to existing ones
Cheers
thanks for the codes, strangely on some articles it does hide the date and the hearts, but on other articles not.
The hearts are also only partially gone.
And I still got the “posted by admin” text, which I do not want.
There is also another issue with the main menu only on my start page it still some old buttons, that I’ve deleted.
And yes, I have got the 2.5.1 version.
PS: sorry for double-posting, I need to get the homepage running in else my boss is going to freak out, but I want to keep your template because I like the style and the overall design, I am not eager to invest more money and time to set up another template – so pls help!
Since you have no many tweaks you’re looking for it would really be best to open a ticket with you log in info so I could simply get in and take care of it for you quickly
In regards to your menu, make sure you’ve deleted the items from your menu in Appearance > Menus.
http://themenectar.ticksy.com/Cheers
Hi there, the menu is fine now, I can see no comments and “posted by” text as well, thats fine, but even if I don’t see the love hearts when viewing my articles at the left hand side, some however still remain at the top right section of the articles’ header with the publishing date. So how do I get rid of this upper right section with the love hearts and the publishing date?
Hey,
enter this into your custom css box:
#single-meta {
display: none!important;
}
thanks a lot – worked like a charm!
You’re welcome
Hey TN,
I not sure if its just me but i noticed the “cart icon” is not floating at its right position if the “Enable WooCommerce Cart In Nav” option is turned on. used to be on the right side now its floating to the left in between the logo and the menu area. do you know anything abt it?
awesome updates as always!!
thank you so much
Thanks neibohood! Have you cleared your cache?
Cheers
Hi Guys we are not so good in CSS, we noticed no page builder there, would be hard to build the site like we want it to be or we will need coders
Hey nizarwannous,
there’s a visual shortcode generator so you still have an interface to add all of the elements from – you don’t need to know css as the mast majority of users don’t have much experience with it. It would only come in handy if you needed to do custom mods.
Cheers!
Just purchased for a client! Let’s get this party started!
Woot woot! Glad to have you aboard, wesleysoccer
Cheers
I requested an alternative and a masonry portfolio style, and you over delivered with an amazing update for Salient! You are a Web Designer GOD! Thank you so much for this amazing theme you created, you are f*cking brilliant! Can’t wait to show it off once I’ve set it up
joeykelava, thanks for making my night!
Big cheers! 
Love the theme, great work! Just reading the Extended Feature List and one of the features is Color Options. Can you invert the color of the theme to a dark color?
Thanks
Thanks fabv!
You would just need some custom css to change the main content BG color & text globally.
Cheers
That’s perfect. So that custom css would work with the all the Woocommerce pages across the board as well?
Yes, that’s correct
Hey Phil,
I have re-downloaded it on ThemeForest, and says I have the right version, but on WordPress, still says 2.1.5? If I delete the theme off wordpress, and re-install it, would that remove my pages with the shortcodes on it?
Thanks!
Hey Gareth!
No, you need to delete your theme in order to install the one, it’s standard procedure – your content will be safe
