Hi, the slider doesn’t seem to work in Internet Explorer? It also doesn’t seem to auto-slide at all? Even with the setting checked. Thank you for your time.
-Ray as well! 
Perfect, thank you
You’re welcome
Hey TN,
How do I create a page like that home portfolio eyecandy? is that part of the latest update?
-Ray
Hey Ray!
That was added in 2.5 – there’s now a portfolio shortcode which offers masonry & fullwidth layouts to choose from
hi there. My blog page is breaking – see my page here
The sidebar is being pushed down to the bottom of the page and breaking the rest of the page. For some reason the bottom post seems to stretch across the entire page. Please help!!! I sent a comment to the support page but it doesn’t seem checked as often.
Thanks!!
Hey dcmike77,
The theme comments are only supposed to be for pre-sale & basic questions – I prefer to channel all real support questions that other people could benefit from to the support forum. Because of this there’s a much higher volume of questions that end up there so the queue is longer, this is exaggerated by the holidays – thanks for your patience

Have you checked for a plugin conflict? I would need to log in ideally to check on things for you if you can’t track it to a plugin related issue.
Cheers
Having a bit of trouble removing the wordpress admin bar just like your demo. It leaves a blank space if I remove it because the header is fixed.
I also want to know how I can change the “Portfolio” name and slug to “Artists”. Thanks Nectar!
Hey apena89!
1. Are you on the latest release? There was a css bug in versions prior to 2.6 that would cause this. If you’re up to date please allow me to check the URL.
2. You can change the slug & name in your portfolio options tab in the Salient options panel
Cheers
Yes I am on the latest version and I still get that bug. my url is rmx.vexyl.com
Hey again!
How are you trying to remove it? The correct way to remove it for users logged in to by going to your profile in the admin panel and unchecking the box for “Show Toolbar when viewing site”. There should be no extra space when doing that.
Cheers
Yes I’m on the latest release and it is stilled bugged. My url is rmx.vexyl.com
Okay I see that bit in the options, but it only applies to my account. I don’t mind seeing the toolbar, I just don’t want other users to see it by default.
For now I used a custom CSS code to hide the toolbar and change the “top” CSS rules for the Salient menus
Only users logged in would see the bar by default, the only solution to auto hide it for everyone would indeed be with css.
Cheers
Hello,
How would I make a video NOT autoplay? After I click an item on the main portfolio page, and enter the specific page… how do I make the videos NOT autoplay? I have mutiple nectar sliders on this one page, and would like them to not all start playing at the same time.
I tried NOT checking the loop function while adding the nectar slider.. but it loops anyhow. So then I added this [nectar_slider full_width=”false” parallax=”false” arrow_navigation=”true” bullet_navigation=”true” desktop_swipe=”true” loop=”false” location=”PiranhaVideo” slider_height=”420” autorotate=”5500”] and as you can see I added a FALSE loop to the command.. but no luck.. still loops.
What can I do? Thanks in advance
Hey JohnMLS, the loop parameter has nothing to do with the videos autoplaying, it relates to the slider looping infinitely in the sense you can keep scrolling right or left forever without reaching an end. Unfortunately there’s a lot of things in place to ensure the videos will loop because they’re meant to be used as a design element rather than for informational videos. If you have videos like that you might want to opt for a having one of the buttons in the slider link to the video which would pop it open in a lightbox
Cheers
Is it possible to change the nectar slider transition to a fade in/out instead of the default slide/swipe transition?
Hey greatnorwegian!
Unfortunately that would require a good deal of development as the slider doesn’t offer any other transition by default as an option.
Cheers & happy holidays
Hi,
i’m looking to buy your salient theme but i would need to be able to drop adverts into the masonry blog page (which i would use as my homepage). ultimately this page is what i would have http://themenectar.com/demo/salient/blog/blog-masonry-no-sidebar/ but i would need some of the posts to just be a picture which, when clicked, will open a new window linking to a sponsors site (i’m using the adrotate plugin). is this something i can do in the salient theme?
I am looking to purchase a theme in the next few days so would really appreciate a response.
Many thanks
andrewHey andrew!
You’d be able to do it, but would need to create some sort of css to hide the post title/meta just for that one post type so it can just be the ad image
Cheers
Hello Dear,
Please help. I am having a problem with adding nectar shortcode video elements. I’m adding the video element under the extra content title but it does not appear. The strange thing is that I could add the video element for another portfolio item but I can’t add it for the specific portfolio item I’m working on now. I double checked every link and every file. By the way the same video element code that works for one portfolio item does not work for the other either. How is this possible? I can give you more details if you can find the time to contact me from “info@muratkulacoglu.com”.
Best regards,
Murat Kulacoglu
Hey Murat!
That’s pretty strange indeed – just send me an email at themenectar@gmail.com with your admin credentials and the project in question and I’ll gladly take a look
Cheers
I did. Waiting for your response. Thank you sir.
Hey again!
I just sorted it for you – the issue was that you had mp4’s in each of the m4v attributes, upon changing the attribute to use mp4= they all started to work as expected.
Cheers & happy holidays!
Thank you very much dear sir. I appreciate your taking the time. Have a nice year
You’re very welcome! – You too
After installing Salient theme and upgrading wordpress I tried to download the dummy text following the instructions in your video. I got this error.
Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.
Please contact the server administrator and inform them of the time the error occurred, and the actions you performed just before this error.
More information about this error may be available in the server error log.
Apache Server at topdank.com Port 80
After this my page no longer works on the permalinks at all. I deleted the .htaccess and it brought the page back but if I click to sort permalinks by numeric it gives the same error and still wont let me install the dummy text .xml file. Any ideas? I don’t think it is the theme but it started right after I tried to download the dummy .xml file
www.topdank.com is the domain
Hey justin9321!
Since it’s an internal server error, you indeed would need to check the log – but if it was brought on by importing the dummy data than it sounds like it might be a php memory limit issue.
Cheers & happy holidays
i set the google font for my porfolio (longtran.co) from option panel. I want to know how can i make the font at my font page and the font of my blog seperate?
Also for my post, I dont want to display the tile, post by, date, and date and like. How can i do that
Hey longzone,
1. You can add this in your custom css box to alter the font of the blog headers only:
body article.post h2.title {
font-family: 'openSansLight'!important;
}
2.
.post-header, #single-below-header, #post-area.masonry article.post .post-meta {
display: none!important;
}
.masonry-blog-item .content-inner {
padding-bottom: 0px!important;
margin-bottom: 0px!important;
border: none!important;
}
Thanks ,but when I click into a post, the post tile/tags/leave a reply still have the same font, how can i separate that as well.
Use this as well
.single.single-post .section-title h1, .post-tags h4, h3#comments, h3#reply-title { font-family: 'openSansLight'!important; }
Hi I would like to ask if this theme will be able to play a video to fullscreen from a slider after clicking a play button? Thanks
Like this one http://themeforest.net/item/dante-responsive-multipurpose-wordpress-theme/full_screen_preview/6175269
Full-screen video.
—- supports native video playback for parallax backgrounds,
and it also allows you to play your videos full-screen.
If yes then I am sold =)
Hey jerwynntan,
there’s a fullscreen option for the slider which can house a video, and you can also have a button to open a video from a button on the slider but it’s a player and would require the user to click the fullscreen button. This can be seen on the home page of the demo at the “Buy a Beer Instead” button
Cheers!
Hi,
I have only 1 menu item in the top secondary menu. How can I center it across the page (like in responsive view) instead of having it on the right?
Thanks and Happy Holidays!
Hey danielzd!
Enter this into your custom css box:
body #header-secondary-outer .container {
text-align: center!important;
}
body #header-secondary-outer ul {
display: inline-block!important;
float: none!important;
}
Cheers!
A couple of pre-sale questions:
1. Is it possible to place icons in header menu links? 2. Can you make the boxed layout content area narrower (like 960px)? 3. How easy is it to fully change the color scheme of the theme (e.g. full dark)?
Thanks.
Hey iMotacky,
1. Not by default, you’d need to use a plugin or take on some custom development.
2. Yes, with custom css.
3. You have complete color control over the header/footer and any full width section in the theme but if you want the body to automatically be dark by default, you’d need to use css – I already have it on the support forum for anyone who needs it
Cheers
Can I use the Nectar Slider on the Blog Recent Posts page?
Hey JoelGoldstein!
Yes, you can use both of those shortcodes on the same page
Got it, thanks
Cheers!
hi…love the theme…can i ask 2 pre-sale questions?
1. do the header options all have transparency setting options? 2. on the eye candy sample page, can i place more than one item before the portfolio grid? your sample is the blue ink video then the portfolio grid..i would love to be able to showcase like 3 projects in parallax effect before the entire grid comes up.
thanks!
Hey mikedubs!
1. No, you’d need to use a line of custom css to adjust that.
2. Yes, you can place whatever you want before & after it
Cheers
thanks for the reply! just bought the theme a few hours ago! would love the css snippet for header transparency and i figured out how to accomplish item #2
That’s awesome to hear mikedubs!
Use this in your custom css box:
#header-outer { background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0.7)!important; }
body { background-color: #f5f5f5!important; }
Happy holidays!
you are the man! much thanks & merry xmas
You’re very welcome!
Hi, I noticed that you keep a steady speed of responses here. Should I ask my question here instead of posting it on the support page as I did a few days ago?
Hey Prohibit!
The theme comments are only supposed to be for pre-sale & basic questions – I prefer to channel all real support questions that other people could benefit from to the support forum. Because of this there’s a much higher volume of questions that end up there so the queue is longer, this is exaggerated by the holidays – thanks for your patience
Makes perfect sense, thank you!
You’re very welcome!
TEAM MEMBER PAGE – CHANGE AVATAR SIZE:
I tried width/height in style.css: .full-width-section .team-member img { width:100px; height:100px; } and just inventing here: .team-member img { width:100px; height:100px; }
I also tried with !important, but I can’t make the avatar change for the team member page.
Hello ramirocastro,
this is a valid snippet and should work (just tested):
.team-member img {
width:100px!important;
height:100px!important;
}
Can you please provide me with a URL if it’s not?
Cheers
it works, thank you for that. It’s because i had changed before the .row .col img width/height from auto to another value, and it seems that it was better to leave them ‘auto’ and change other specific values (like .team-member img)
Thanks again
You’re welcome!
Hi.
Just purchased the theme, and it’s just absolutely amazing. However I was wondering where the “blurred coding” video-clip was located? I would love to use it as a “Under construction” background clip.
Once again; Amazing theme 
Thanks, A.Westerhoff
Hey saconsult, thanks a lot!
Here’s the src: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/coding.webm
Cheers!
Thanks!
Oh, and one fast question; Is there any way to make the map on contact page, black and white?
Cheers.
Hey saconsult! Check this out in regards: http://themenectar.ticksy.com/ticket/136845/search/
Cheers mate
Cheers! 
at my home page http://longtran.co . In the porfolio section CAMPAIGN/MEN/WOMEN/BLOG I want to get rid of the date . How can I do that? Can i have a subtitle there instead?
Hey again longzone, you currently have a coming soon plugin active so I am unable to view your site – can you give me the admin URL or disable that so I can see to help?
Cheers
Weird, I must have ended up on http://longtran.com instead of .co – I still have your credentials from the email so I’ll hide the ones you just posted for your protection again
my site is www.longtran.co
I added some custom css box to remove the date from the two boxes – you can’t easily add additional text in there without custom development though.
Cheers
can it be remove from all the box?
Took care of that for you
thank you so much
You’re very welcome!
I also want to know how to Remove Featured Image From Appearing Inside Post
Here you go:
.single .post-featured-img {
display: none!important;
}
Cheers
please check for me , why I cant write in my post in my blog . The text not appear in my post
I knew why because my font is why. I want to know where can i change the font color?
never mind I got it. Thanks
You’re welcome longzone – glad you sorted it!
Is there a way I can make it use the browser’s default scrollbar? I’m having problems with the theme’s custom scrollbar…
Hey partiallypro, yes – there’s an option in the general settings tab in the Salient options panel to disable the smooth scrolling which also disables the styled scrollbar
Cheers
