Is there a tutorial I can read on how to remove the actual pricing from the pricing table. Not sure what this means “Yes, you could remove the price from displaying either with CSS or by removing it all together in the function that is creating the markup in shortcode-processing.php :)”

Hey again!

There was a bug in 3.0 that caused them to not rotate, please update to 3.0.5 and define your testimonial autorotate timing again :)

Cheers!

THANK YOU.

You’re welcome :)

Hey Phectar,

-For some reason the view larger button keeps pointing to the featured image and not the full size image. How do I fix this?

-Also, I noticed that on some of the featured images I created have white rectangles appearing on the sides. Not all of them.

Should the recent images be a specific size to avoid this?

-Is there a way to set the images as different sizes or do they have to all be uniform?

-How do I just display the image in the recent work section? It currently shows the title and date at the bottom and I’d like that removed.

Kind regards,

-CS

Hey CS!

1. The view larger is linking to the full sized featured image – can I grab a URL

2. I haven’t heard of that before, just perhaps it could be a conflict with a plugin? If you can let me know a project to look at that has this issue I can tell you definitively what’s causing it :)

3. Oh, I thought you meant white edges on the lightbox versions. Scratch what I said in #2 then, it’s just a matter of your images being to small. Ensure that the dimensions are at least 600px by 400px.

4. You can have the freedom to use the masonry sizing which offers 4 different options as seen here: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient/portfolio-fullwidth-masonry/ and also if you go with the masonry layout non fullwidth and supply custom thumbnails instead of featured images all the sizes are up you and won’t be restrained.

5. Add this into the Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel:
.recent-work-carousel .portfolio-items .work-meta {
   display: none!important;
}

Cheers!

Cheers Phectar thanks so much. My site is really starting to take shape.

You’re welcome :)

Hi how can I like on the demo page, this text like this without lines create in between? when I try it with the centered heading appears at the bottom always a line.

“Our Passion For What We Do Transfers Into Our Services Phasellus enim libero, blandit vel sapien vitae, Condimentum ultricies magna et. Quisque euismod lobortis aliquam. Aliquam tortor enim in. orci ut et lobortis aliquam. Aliquam tortor enim in. “

Thanks

Hey dc-motion,

it’s not a centered heading shortcode – just regular heading tags that can be added through the editor. Paste this into the text tab on yours:

<h2 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #27ccc0;">Our Passion For What We Do Transfers Into Our Services</span></h2>
<h4 class="light" style="text-align: center;">Phasellus enim libero, blandit vel sapien vitae, condimentum ultricies magna et. Quisque euismod
lobortis aliquam. Aliquam in tortor enim. orci ut et lobortis aliquam. Aliquam in tortor enim.</h4>

Cheers!

Thanks ;)

You’re welcome!

When I am trying to use the Visual Composer it has a loading icon and does not load the rows Any help/advise?

Hey alp,

is there anyway you could lend me a login so I can check on what’s causing it for you? If so, please shoot me an email at themenectar@gmail.com and let me know.

It could either be a script conflict or your server running out of memory.

Cheers :)

Of course, you are too kind and love the fact that you are always so helpful ! Will email you now

Just answered :)

Cheers!

I see a few days ago you had an issue with scrolling on an android tablet. I too am having the same issue with a Kindle Fire HD 8.9, Silk. The site functions but is unable to scroll at all.

I’ve only just bought the theme and am playing around with it so I don’t really have a URL to share, but the domain is inkmethod.com.

The theme looks great and works terrifically on my desktop and laptop. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hey mableclaid,

I’m going to be ensuring that the smooth scrolling featured doesn’t get queued up on all mobile devices in the upcoming minor release – for now, you can just disable that option from the Salient options panel.

Cheers :)

first of all great theme – very pretty! I had a pre-sales question. I noticed that in the paradise portfolio all the hovering over the picture shows the date. I would imagine that option of showing the date can be changed to a location or anything else. Is that correct? or will it always show the date.

Many thanks in advance.

Hey MensEtManu!

Currently there’s only the option to show the date, but removing that all together is very simple. If you wanted to switch the information shown there instead, you’d have to modify the file a bit.

Cheers :)

is there a way to change the order of the Portfolio as i am adding older item and they are appearing first on the “gallery”

http://www.clownnoir.ie/index.php/portfolio/

Thanks, Eva

Hey Eva!

You can use this plugin to reorder your items :)http://wordpress.org/plugins/intuitive-custom-post-order/

Great theme! Been playing around with it. Very comprehensive!

Question about slider… I decided to put Revolution Slider for a little more layer effects. A couple pixels are visible above slider and about 20px are below rev slider. If you can tell me the code and where to place custom css I would appreciate it!

Even tough Nectar Slider is awesome!... Its a very fast and nice slider.

Please see screen shot here https://www.dropbox.com/s/q143a4thtvgrcgo/revslider.jpg

Hey stevef22!

Is there anyway you could supply me an actual URL so I can see more about how you placed it in order to give the best css solution :)

Cheers

Sure, take a look here… http://boxerboogierun.com/clients/wizard2/?page_id=1086

Top rev slider is accomplished making another home-template file and inserting PHP line where Nectar Slider Div was.

Second rev slider is shown by just clicking on shortcode and selecting red icon for Rev Slider.

The top one has px above and below it.

The second one will loose nav arrows if I tell rev slider to force full screen.

Not sure best method to have a tight 0px padding rev slider on page. If you can tell me the code and where to put it I will!

Side Question:

Is it possible to have a diff background for each page? If yes, what would the CSS or code look like?

I would like a different background for each page.

Hey again!

1. Add this into the Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel:
body #rev_slider_6_1_wrapper {
    margin-top: -5px!important;
    margin-bottom: -37px!important;
    z-index: 1000;
}

2. In the page builder view on each page there’s a css button in the top right hand corner that will allow you to input css that will apply to the current page only. In that box you can enter this to change the background image:

body {
  background-image: url('your-img-url.jpg')!important;
}

Cheers :)

Hi ThemeNectar,

Thanks for getting back to about the gallery issues prior thats all sorted now.

But I am trying to upload and play .swf web banner files on a particular portfolio page and it doesn’t allow me to upload- can you please help on this matter?

Try opening the style.css file and deleting this rule:

object, object embed {
    display: block;
    height: auto;
    max-width: 100% !important;
}

Awesome! As soon as I deleted that code it was playing perfectly- thanks a lot for your support!

I may have asked before but have you managed to test this theme on samsung galaxy tab 2 10.1 yet? As I can’t seem to tap on links in firefox?

You’re welcome :)

The only known issue I’ve had reported was scrolling on Android tablets only works some of the time – in 3.0.5 I remedied that, but unfortunately haven’t heard of the bug you’re mentioning to fix it. I’ll note to test :)

Pre purchase questions:

1. is there a way to center the logo? if not how hard would it be to get it done?

2. does the theme support layerslider from codecanyon? cause I need true parallax effect on mouse movement not only when scrolling

3. in future releases are you planning on updating visual composer so it’s always uptodate with it’s latest release?

4. any plans on releasing a dev license? so I can use this as a base for future clients/projects since it has some nice tweaks compared to the stock visual composer script.

Thank you!

Hey a-max!

1. It would require custom css – it would only prove to be difficult if you left the header resize effect on.

2. There’s no known issues with that plugin, but if you encounter any just let me know and I’ll help :)

3. I’m going to updating it when necessary and including it with my own updates – it’s a forked version of that plugin, so updating it will require time.

4. I might look into what options I have available in the future in regards to this, but as of now I haven’t considered this yet.

Cheers :)

hello,

quick question, is there any way to adjust the featured image size in blogposts smaller?

thanks

s

Hey rebelle143!

use this in the Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel:
body article.post .content-inner .post-featured-img img {
    width: 50%!important;
}

Cheers :)

thanks!

You’re welcome! :)

I agree with drastic99. Thanks for taking the time out to answer our questions Phectar!

You’re very welcome! :)

i wish all support was as amazing as yours.

Thanks a lot drastic99, it’s awesome to hear that! :)

Hi ThemeNectar!

I want the social icons in the header using secondary navigation to appear on the right end at the top of the page rather than left end, can you please advise custom CSS on how to do this?

Thank you very much in advance!

Hey tomsato,

#header-secondary-outer #social {
  float: right!important;
}
#header-secondary-outer .sf-menu {
  float: left!important;
}

Cheers!

Thank you for the fix! Highly appreciated, you provide the best support on the themeforest planet :-) Shame i can’t give you five stars more than once…

Hi, how do I enable the Portfolio SORTING? (I would like the banner, not the dropdown).

Sorry to post a repeat question. I looked it up here already and found a response to ElusiveDogCow with a screen shot/directions to the “Portfolio Display Settings” (on the “right side…”) – but I still can’t find it anywhere.

Thanks for your help!

hey nevermind, i figured it out…

For others who might be looking, it’s editable via dashboard menu > PAGES > [create or choose a page which will be your Portfolio page*] > open it for editing options and see right side

!!! Note that under PAGE ATTRIBUTES, the Template must be set to “PORTFOLIO” for the “Portfolio Display Settings” box to appear !!!

Then the “Display Sortable” checkbox will show up, yay!

Hey violet424, i’m glad you found the answer :)

Another way to add a sortable portfolio would simply through the portfolio element in the page builder or portfolio shortcode in the editor. Both of those ways will allow you to enable the sortable filters with a checkbox when adding the element.

Cheers!

Hi,

I want to purchase your theme but I was wondering if you provide PSD files?

Thanks,

hey ydaria83, unfortunately there’s no PSD’s included because there’s no images used in the design elements. If you needed a PSD for mocking up, a screenshot would be almost as useful.

Cheers!

Hello Dear Nectar Guru,

After the update to Salient version 3, our portfolio section’s last line of thumbnails started getting cropped from the bottom. It was OK on the previous version, but on this one, the base line of thumbnails are cropped from the bottom. Here, please scroll down to bottom and take a look.

http://www.mentalcw.com/?page_id=731

any idea why? please help…

Hey!

That’s pretty strangem but add this into the Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel to fix it:
body .portfolio-wrap {
  margin-bottom: 0px!important;
}

It worked! Thanks a lot :)

You’re very welcome :)

Hello,

Great theme, is it possible to add sidebar to gallery/portfolio thumbnails page? And, can we include google ads/ads anywhere in the pages?

Thanks

Nvm about the blog post situation, I got it covered. Can you tell me how to create a border around the thumbnails in http://themeforest.net/item/salient-responsive-multipurpose-theme/full_screen_preview/4363266.

Thanks! You been a great help

Don’t have to answer this, I got the problem situated! :)

Hey luvdesign, really glad to hear you sorted it :)

Cheers!

I have very much enjoyed this theme and I appreciate the clean code! I went to add a new portfolio item yesterday and it put the preview/thumbnail image larger than the others. I swapped out the photo I was using with one from an existing portfolio item, and then switched them back and now they are both bigger than the others. Any ideas? http://santacruzaerials.com and also http://santacruzaerials.com/aerial-video/

They are getting different css classes. The one with class=”custom-thumbnail” is sizing differently than class=”attachment-portfolio-thumb wp-post-image” but even if I enter it as a custom thumbnail, it displays larger. Thank you, Mary

Of course, since I posted this I was able to fix it by removing and replacing the image 5 different ways. (even though that didn’t work last night) I would still appreciate some insight as to why that happens. Thanks!!

Hey marymacit!

If you uploaded the image through the custom thumbnail option, there will be no hard cropping ensuring the same size as the others – it would be up to you to verify the proportions before uploading. The featured image is the correct way to have your images auto crop and remain the same size :)

Cheers

Hello! As I can add the wpml language selector in the secondary navigation of menu?

Thanks!

Hey Ramon6!

You can select the language dropdown to appear in either menu from the WPML settings – were you having problems adding it?

I want to add the wpml switcher widget in the menu of head

Like this: http://themeforest.net/item/salient-responsive-multipurpose-theme/full_screen_preview/4363266

Yes, there’s an option for that within WPML: http://i.imgur.com/gZX1pGl.png
