Hey funkysmurf,

this would take some custom development actually since there’s a few things in place within the slider script to assist in the infinite loop. The video backgrounds were designed to just be a design element rather than house an informational video but there’s video lightboxing capabilities also built in if you want to link it from a button in the slider.

Cheers

Hey Marc,

yes you can use Disqus but the social network commenting inside of jetpack works better out of the box – if you need further help with it please open a ticket on the support forum

Cheers!

Hey andreeanne, thanks a lot!

I don’t think that filetype is supported in WordPress: http://en.support.wordpress.com/accepted-filetypes/

Cheers

Hey blairalyse!

Add this to your custom css box in your theme options panel:

.rsswidget img { 
   display: none!important;
}

Cheers

I mean I will take care of this for the next release – so the next update you download for Salient will fix the issue for you

Great, thank you in advance!

You’re welcome

You changed the font for that in your typography panel so now to overwrite that group selection, you will have to add this into your stylesheet:

body header#top nav > ul > li.megamenu > ul > li > a {
    font-family: 'OpenSansbold'!important;
    font-size: 12px!important;
    letter-spacing: 2px!important;
    margin-bottom: 5px!important;
    text-transform: uppercase!important;
}

Cheers

It works!! Thanks

You’re welcome!

There are no plans for it yet because of the large queue of items that still have priority for my development time.

Cheers

Can I buy the wordpress theme and use only the part i need as a hand crafted html template?

Yes, of course

Hey again, before you update you should make sure that the latest version has fixed your problem by checking the live demo in IE8. The latest version cleaned up a lot of little display bugs n the old IE, but the home slider not displaying was never an issue. You must also be aware of some of the design changes brought in 2.0 – surf through the live demo and notice some changes to the portfolio section and some icons used throughout.

As far as content goes – all of your sites information and theme settings will persist through so you don’t have to worry about that. Just delete your old copy and upload the new when you’re ready

(no hard in making a backup of the old though in your case)

Cheers!

Was able to mirror my site again except for one area

footer-outer #footer-widgets .col ul li {

border-bottom-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.102) !important; border-bottom-style: solid !important; border-bottom-width: 1px !important; }

This controls the footers widget. I want this to be in white, i was able to modify it on the last version with just changing values in the style.css

For some reason the new version does not show this in the styles.css but rather saying this under firebug:

universityplazawaterfronthotel.com/:157

Can’t figure out how to make the bottom lines in latest posts in the footer to be white and match footer quick links..

again universityplazawaterfronthotel.com

much appreciated

Hey again!

Use this in your custom css box:

body #footer-outer .widget.widget_categories li a, body #footer-outer .widget.widget_pages li a, body #footer-outer .widget.widget_nav_menu li a {
   border-bottom-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.102) !important; 
   border-bottom-style: solid !important; 
   border-bottom-width: 1px !important;
}

Hey TravisLaidlaw!

You’d have to use the full width section and do it that way – the only draw back if you wouldn’t have it automatically appear on every page. However if you’re comfortable coding a little you could integrate your subscribe button to the footer.php file where the main CTA section gets created as well

Cheers

Hey ninbin!

It only attaches to the top of the page if you have parallax set to true – just set it to false and you can use it anywhere like I am on the demo on various pages

Cheers

Awesome. But what if I want it to parallax?

The parallax effect on the slider will only work at the top of the page since it’s more complicated than most and the calculations rely on that position. Other elements like the full width section can parallax anywhere.

Cheers

Hey bobklingler,

if you need your image to expand the full width of the boxed container you will need to use a full width section shortcode as the boxed layout still have padding on the left and right for content in the editor. When you create your full width section, just set the padding top or bottom equal to the height of your image i.e. 125 and it should work

Cheers

It is still shrinking the image when I do that. Also – any image I place into the boxed layout shrinks from full size. Is there something I am doing that is causing this? I simply want to place an image on the homepage (it’s the company’s tagline) and let it just be an image. But when I do – the theme is shrinking it from its full size.

Screenshot: http://d.pr/i/JkR3

Without seeing a URL it’s impossible for me to know its full size, but as I said in my previous comment – there’s padding on the right and left of the sites content in boxed mode. The padding is illustrated by the red in this image: http://i.imgur.com/6yVOJ9h.jpg

So you’re image can not expand past that by default and will be resized down to be contained within. If you want it to stretch to the edge of your boxed layout, use a full width section shortcode and upload your banner as the background image. Since there will be no content in the section other than your image, set the padding of that section equal to your desired image height.

Cheers

Hey LouisLeedham! There is a gallery slider option available to you here’s a video that goes over the process of adding a gallery, just in case you need a reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Ql7B-mjDBI Skip to 2:45.

You also can place a Nectar Slider where ever you want as well

Cheers

...by parallax sliding effect I mean, as the user scrolls the video/image scrolls slightly as well

Hey scottwhittaker!

You’d have to take all the slider code and separate it from the theme to create a stand alone instance which would take a fair amount of work and would prove to be pretty difficult unless you were comfortable coding.

Cheers

Hey djminimi! Enter in a slug in your portfolio options tab of anything other than “portfolio” such as “work” or “projects” and then resave your permalinks in Settings > Permalinks

Problem solved! thanks! 5* support!

Great to hear

Hey luckskywalker,

Have you asked the plugin developer about this? Salient uses the default WP way of handling/displaying comments, so I don’t thinks there’s anything specific you’d need to do in Salient that wouldn’t apply for most other themes as well.

Cheers

Ah, I’ll ask for them.

Thanks

You’re welcome!

Hey again Lymf!

Thanks for mentioning – i’ll note to test for those two things

Cheers

Hey mavreyas, not yet but that’s a planned feature of upcoming releases

Cheers

Thanks. One criticism for the theme. All pages are great except contact page. Need to be more fancy like http://www.nesrullahcakiral.com.tr/iletisim/

Thanks for the suggestion mavreyas

Thanks wineservices!

Add this to your custom css box in your theme options panel:

.portfolio-items .col img {
   margin: 0 auto!important;
}

Cheers!

Hey kinkypixel,

it’s possible but not in the immediate future.

Cheers

Hey cunfek,

adding the lightbox to the default gallery would require a javascript mod – but I intend on allowing an option for this by default soon. Also, there’s no section on the demo I can link you to which shows the default WP gallery unfortunately.

Cheers
