Hi!
I can’t register at your support forum..I sign in with my twitter account but I cannot post any question..
I need help…my comments are not showing up in a PAGE..
Any help would be great!
Hey multicorechina, if you want to add comments to regular pages, open up your page.php file and paste this in:
<div class="comments-section">
<?php comments_template(); ?>
</div>
under:
<?php the_content(); ?>
Cheers!
Just have to say it again…. Best theme ever!
Thanks a lot themekiller! I dig your avatar by the way, don’t know if I mentioned it last time haha.
Cheers 
could not find any info about high res photo specs. for high res size (like Retina) should it be at 150? and what dimensions (for full screen photos used)
also, what resolution for portfolio thumbnails?
the Theme forest search bar disappeared, so I can no longer search for this question. sorry if you already answered it.
Hey alcakes,
if you’re trying to upload high res versions of images for a retina desktop/laptop display then you would need a plugin to swap your images out with 2x versions of themselves – all of your images will already display crisp on retina mobile devices since the screens are small enough that the images you uploaded on desktop will be large enough to hold a high quality, but extra steps are needed for large retina displays in regards to user defined images.
Hope that helps!
Im asking for metrics. 2x versions? 2x what? whats the metric? I need formats and resolution specs. thank you!
also my web designer doesnt understand how to create more parallax on the entire page with my elements. he’s asking for code. is that neccesary? does one of your videos cover this? you happen to know the minute count of where you cover that? – the documentation didnt really cover this.
specifically SHORT CODE
Hey again,
1. 2x the size of the regular image i.e. an image at 800×400px would need to be 1600px x 800px for it to display perfectly crisp on a retina desktop display.
2. This video does indeed show me adding a parallax fullwidth section shortcode if you needed an example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YYYtSUp-cl0
Cheers
awesome! one more thing…. The main video on top… It says I can only use these strange codecs like: OGG and m4v…(which are a hassle and require major crunching with 3rd party software) Because the theme (where you put the link in) states it must be those certain codecs. Has this updated? and if so, do I ignore what theme says? and if so, what exactly ARE all the accepted codecs (to date) ? thank you!
but then thread says H264 is ok too? So has this changed?Hey again!
The formats required are standard browser html5 acceptable formats: http://www.w3schools.com/html/html5_video.asp
You also don’t need any software to convert – there’s a ton of professional online converts for free like:
http://video.online-convert.com/convert-to-webm http://video.online-convert.com/convert-to-ogg http://video.online-convert.com/convert-to-mp4Cheers
awesome! yes the video here looks SO smooth!! http://themenectar.com/demo/salient/video-backgrounds/ We want it to be nice like that
oh! one more thing. (sorry!) do I put the MP4 where the M4V use to go? and do I put webMD where it says to put an OGG link? (my understanding only Opera uses ogg… and Im not too concerned about catering to Opera. 
And what DIMENSIONS? 1920×1080 for home page video? or smaller?
Hey again!
1. It sounds like you’re confusing the video shortcode with the Nectar Slider – the requirements are different because the nature of the videos are different.
The video shortcode is actually just a shortcut for placing the WordPress video shortcode (which is built in natively and not apart of the theme) learn more about it here and all the available options: https://codex.wordpress.org/Video_Shortcode
2. The videos always need to be in a standard 16:9 aspect ratio for Nectar Slider, it’s up to you whether you want to supply 1280×720 or 1920×1080
Cheers
Hello! How I can change the colors menú ? Color bottom, color bottom hover and page selected.
thank you so much!
Hey markosansa!
you have complete control over the header colors in the header options tab of your Salient options panel – I don’t know what you’re referring to with the “bottom”, but if you’re trying to add a line of color under the text, than that would require some custom css
Cheers!
Thank for reply. Sorry! “button” not “bottom” I need to change the colors buttons menu
Hey again!
As I mentioned in the header options you have color pickers for this – just select custom for the color scheme option to unlock them
Cheers!
aaaah ok!!!! header color scheme “custom”. thank you so much!
No problem!
Cheers
Hi there,
Pre-purchase quick one: can I upload an animated looping gif as a logo image for the header? Or is there another way to achieve this?
I’m thinking something like this: http://netdna.webdesignerdepot.com/uploads/2013/07/sweet-crude-logo-animated.gif
Thanks in advance!
Hey alejouss,
Yes, the logo will accept an animated gif & that’s a really cool example by the way
Cheers!
Hello,
First of all thnx for the awesome theme.
I have a question regarding the “Contact” page. I can’t get the map to appear, although I have given the Latitude and Longitude coordinates in the contact options. Can you help me with that?
Is there a shortcode that I am missing?
Hey keici!
Have you chosen the contact page layout for you page in the “Page Attributes” box? Also, have you enabled location #1 and entered lat/lng for it as well in the contact options tab?
Cheers
Hey!
The CreatureBox guys are using a modified version of your theme! Looks awesome
Best,
Chris
Hey Chris!
I actually had the pleasure of assisting them recently with some support tickets – they really did do an amazing job with the design!
Thanks for taking the time to mention it here too
Keep up the good work!
Hi ThemeNectar, your theme looks amazing! I would like to ask 2 questions related to the carousels before buying the theme:
1) Would it be possible to customize this fullscreen slider so it will display picture thumbnails instead of the carousel dots? If not: is there another shortcode in the theme that generates an auto-playing slideshow with thumbnails?
2) Is it be possible to use pictures in the testimonials, like here:
or even completely replace the carousel dots, like this (Satellite7):
Hope you will have a moment to answer these question. Thanks!
Hey pyramus99,
Unfortunately both the items you’re looking for would require custom development as there’s no built in options to aid in altering the bullet nav to use images instead – if it’s something you’re really set on I’m sure some nice folks at microlancer would be able to do the mod as long as you don’t mind paying for customizations
Cheers!
All right: thanks for your quick reply
You’re welcome
Dear ThemeNectar, I just purchased the theme several days ago and I am loving it But I have a few things that I can’t customized it myself. Can you help me with this?
1) I want to change the hover effect for “Nectar Slider Solid Button”, because I want the hover color to be distinct enough than the primary accent color. I tried to change the opacity from the code below from style.css, but it doesn’t change anything.
.nectar-button:hover, .full-width-section .light .nectar-button:hover {
opacity: 1;
}
.full-width-section .light .nectar-button {
opacity: 0.9;
}
You can find my second and third question here :
http://themenectar.ticksy.com/ticket/142627
http://themenectar.ticksy.com/ticket/142216
Thank you so much in advance
Cheers!
Hey Fayth!
There’s actually javascript in control of making that hover effect – to alter it you’ll need to remove that function. You’ll need to open the nectar-slider.js file and delete this piece near the bottom:
$('.swiper-slide').each(function(){
$(this).find('.solid_color').each(function(){
var $currentColor = $(this).find('a').css('background-color');
var $hoverColor = shadeColor($currentColor, -16);
$(this).find('a').hover(function(){
$(this).attr('style','background-color:'+$hoverColor+'!important;');
},function(){
$(this).attr('style','');
});
});
});
Now you can use css like this: body .swiper-slide .button.solid_color a:hover { background-color: #000!important; }
Cheers!
Thank you for your advice, it finally works (I decided to change the -16 point instead). Anyway, it all thanks to you.
Once you have the time, please look for my 2nd and 3rd question in your support forum, here they are:

Thanks again
Cheers!
Will do!

hi, very great theme,
I want to know where I can change the left & right margin on mobile devices (responsive on / full-width mode)
thanks a lot
Hey Markhutw, thanks a lot!
You would need to create a new media query for that size like this:
@media only screen and (min-width : 450px) and (max-width : 690px) {
body .container {
max-width: 450px !important;
}
}
You can enter that into your custom css box in the Salient options panel
Cheers!
Hi, How do I add a percentage symbol on the milestone counter. Thanks
Hey wardanddodds, this will become an option in future updates and if you’re not going to be adding a % on every milestone you’re using right now than the mod won’t be worth it because it will become a fair amount of work.
Cheers
Ok, I think I figured it out:
the Single Project view NEXT/PREV buttons seem to navigate in reverse. The NEXT (ie. right) button goes to the project that is displayed before it on the Portfolio page.
I am using Post Type Order plugin.
Actually, it doesn’t even loop through all the items sometimes. I will uninstall the plugin and just try sorting by date instead (which is going to be slow and annoying)
Hey matijaerceg!
I believe there should no issues when using this plugin for custom sorting: http://wordpress.org/plugins/intuitive-custom-post-order/
Cheers
Hi Can we know where can we get a similar cityscpae video like the one you have here http://themeforest.net/item/salient-responsive-multipurpose-theme/full_screen_preview/4363266
Hey nizarwannous, the exact source for that video and others is listed in the user guide in the “Dummy Data” section
Cheers
is this buddy press 1.8 compatible at the moment?
Hey conradtiu, there would be some styling required for that plugin to make it look good, but I don’t believe there would be any major conflicts.
Cheers
Hi Nectar,
Just wondering if there’s any plans for ajax page loading transitions? Would be awesome
Thanks, J
Hey J!
it’s a feature already on the wishlist, so it will make it into the theme someday!
Awesome as ever – very much looking forward to it
Thanks a lot!
Cheers
p.s. any thoughts on when “someday” will be? Understand you probably can’t guarantee anything, but …
Unfortunately there’s no way to give an ETA – i’m still beyond buys trying to wrap up the current release which is overflowing with items so it would at least need to wait until the release after that where I could consider it again.
Cheers
Sounds like the next release will be another exciting one
Thanks!
Cheers 
Hello there,
First of all, my client and I absolutely love the theme. It’s precisely what we were looking for. Their only complaint thus far is the absence of a yelp icon for the social media section. They are a fairly new small business, however their yelp scores are extremely high and we’d like to highlight this in multiple areas.
Many thanks,
JCGable.
Hey JCGable!
There’s a way you can add that yourself right now with a small mod – open the footer.php file and add a new list item into the:
which would contain your icon/image of Yelp
Hopefully that helps!
Thanks for your response! It looks like you meant to post an image there, unfortunately it may have been corrupted. It just shows up as a line in both Chrome and Safari. Would you consider reposting?
Many thanks, Jcgable
Hey, sorry about that! I just mean to say you’ll be adding a new list item into the:
<ul id="social">
Before purchasing, can you tell me if this supports buddy press 1.8? Thanks!
Hey conradtiu, there would be some styling required for that plugin to make it look good, but I don’t believe there would be any major conflicts.
Cheers
Hi,
I purchased this theme recently. After a few days I started having the problem where I would click on Nectar Shortcodes, only to have nothing happen. I browsed the support forums and figured that it was a permissions problem. I went to CHMOD the shortcode-generator.php file only to find that it was not there at all. Is it possible to have this file sent to me, or am I missing something here?
Thanks
Also, I love the theme it is fantastic – just need to fix it so I can keep enjoying it
not only do the nectar shortcodes not load, but when I click on “Remove Upload” to remove a header image, I just get (javascript:void(0)) and no response at all. It happens with other links too.
Hey greenlaaf, it sounds like you have a script conflict with most likely a plugin you have installed – if you want me to log in and check on that for you I’d be glad to
Thanks. Can you email me with info to make you an account? The only plugin I’ve installed is a maintenance mode plugin.
You can create the credentials as anything you want as it will only be temporary – just send me an email at themenectar@gmail.com when you’ve created the account
(Make sure it’s an admin)
Cheers!
hello, i will like to buy the team, but one question. do this theme supoort right to left (hebrew language)
Hey rotemyagel,
it would require some custom css to set up as of now as there’s no support for it by default yet.
Cheers
Hi ThemeNectar,
Is it possible to make a post slider with the 3 most recent posts at first?
Thanks!
Hey LeffDesign! Unfortunately that would take some custom development – but I intend on upping the functionality of the recent posts shortcode in the future.
Cheers!
