Hi guys, my slider isn’t showing on the home page?? Any solution?? thx
Hey Fige,
Are you trying to use a Home Slider or the Nectar Slider? The Home Slider is placed by assigning one of the available home templates in the Page Attributes box and the Nectar Slider is place through the applicable shortcode/page builder element.
I have tutorials on placing/using both sliders here:

Ok thanks guys…..... I just realized that my website isn’t even “booting” on the home page _ it’s like in “blog mode”... I am trying to figure this out.
You’re welcome 
Have you checked the settings > reading part of your admin panel?
Hey! ok i found the solution…. i wasn’t using the home page model….. Looser >_< sorry guys! Thanks a lot! Everything work fine now!
No worries!
Glad you sorted it
Hi,
Why is the last portfolio items/image have different height then the rest? http://46.23.77.174/~errive/referanser/Thanks in advance.
Hey ItotalAS, I don’t see any portfolio items with a different height but in general that could happen from either:
1. Using a custom thumbnail instead of featured image where the image supplied was not of the same proportions.
2. Supplying an image for the featured image which wasn’t big enough.
Cheers
Hi,
I found it out
Btw, where can I edit the text when you have the mouse over on portfolio item and it says:
View larger – More details
And any idea how I can make the contact form in footer smaller?
GREAT Theme!
Hey again!
1. Run a search and replace for “more details” inside of the nectar/tinymce/shortcode-processing.php
2. Add this into your Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel:
#footer-outer #footer-widgets .col input[type="text"], #footer-outer #footer-widgets .col input[type="email"] {
padding: 5px!important;
}
#footer-outer #footer-widgets .col p {
padding-bottom: 9px!important;
}
Cheers
can you sale this on HTML version I will order this if you do it, excelent theme, thanks
Thanks templatorian
Unfortunately there’s no HTML version yet, but you could port the theme to be raw HTML if you’re decent with coding
Cheers
Hi there,
I am using the Home – Portfolio Eye Candy, and some how I have managed to mess up the order of the front page items, there is now a super long blank image on the home page, 1. how can I remove this please? 2. how can I select what portfolio item appears on the home page, and 3. which portfolio item will be shown as a small box or large box please.
Thanks in advance
Also I cant get the columns to work with the Megamenu, when I use “megamenu” the menu items dont seem to appear in three columns, and the same when I use “megamenu columns-3” and the last menu item is a little cut on the screen.
Thanks again
Hey VP229,
1. I would need need to see your URL to better help out.
2. You can choose this by what categories you select in the portfolio element for that page.
3. You can pick what sizes each project will display in via the “Masonry Item Sizing” dropdown in your Project Configuration box in each item. Also see the user guide > “Masonry Sizing” for more information.
4. Same as #1
Cheers
Thanks for your reply, I have made a ticket request so you can have a look: Ticket #158164
Thanks for opening a ticket – I’ll be with you soon enough
Cheers
I must say the communication here is excellent! Thanks I’ll be waiting.
Thanks a lot VP229
Hello, I can create a one page portoflio style with this theme?
Thank You.
Hey kauejones!
Yes, but if you wanted animated scrolling for each section you’d need to use a plugin like this: http://wordpress.org/plugins/page-scroll-to-id/
Cheers
Wow, thanks for the tip. I already bought the theme and I’ll try it =)
Thank you.
Welcome aboard
Cheers!
Hi,
How can I change the name of the directory theme (salient) ? When I do the normal stuff like activate an other theme, change rep. name and re-activate it’s going wrong…
Many thanks Regards
Done I find an answer thanks
hey da1234, I’m glad you found the answer
Cheers!
Thank you for the great theme.
One problem with the Ajax cart with the boxed layout option. With that option, the position of the Ajax cart become weird.
www.botaniss.com
Please let us know the solution for this.
Thank you.
Hey mu1975
that’s the intended position of it – modifying that would require a good deal of css development since you would need to make space for it elsewhere depending on where you want it to go.
Cheers
Hi ThemeNectar,
I’m trying to upload a WebM file for the Nectar Slider to play on my homepage (www.jaicg.com), but every time I attempt to upload it, there’s an error message that reads, “Sorry, this file type is not permitted for security reasons.” Help!
Hey jaiconsultinggroup,
WordPress has no restrictions against WebM as it’s a supported video type. This probably has something to do with your server security settings – i’ve found a relevant thread on the subject which poses many workarounds: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/uploading-webm-videos
Cheers
I have a video placed on a portfolio page and I would like to stop it from autoplaying. Where is the setting for this?
The page can be seen here: http://motionlogicstudios.com/portfolio/dragon-strike-live-wallpaper/Thank you
Hey JohnMLS,
You shouldn’t use a video background if you don’t want it to autoplay. The standard video player element will suffice and allow the user to have control over it
Cheers
Will the standard video player element allow me to have Images and Video on the same page? I thought I was using a standard video element since its a nectar slider?
Maybe I am confused.. can you point me to a Standard Video player element so I know for sure what your talking about?
Thank you
The standard video player looks like this: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient/portfolio/flippin-the-bird/ it’s not apart of the slider. It’s just called “Video Player” in the page builder
You mean in the Nectar Shortcodes? I am not seeing Video Player anywhere… I see VIDEO in the shortcodes as mentioned. And in the Page Builder I see ADD MEDIA.
The video element is in the page builder as seen here: http://i.imgur.com/FOi7Wyu.png but the video shortcode is also going to do the same thing
ok cool, Thank you!
You’re welcome
Hey man!
Still loving this awesome theme, have a look at what we created with it: http://www.hearthstone-league.be/?p=1141Now on this page I have a small issue, I haven’t been able to fix myself. Under each image I use in a post/page there is a big margin. If i put a small image next to text, it will align much higher than the text.
For example in between the “The Deck” image and the text “2x Holy Smite” there is no space in the editor but when I view the page there is a line in between.
Am I missing something?
Thanks in advance!
Also appearantly the comment section is acting up: http://www.hearthstone-league.be/?p=1141#comment-19 and whenever someone makes a comment, the social sharing count numbers dissappear…? Any help is much appreciated, I can manage coding normally but this is going over my head.
Hey ColourCore!
1. I don’t see much of a huge space, but try adding this into your Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel to fix it:
.content-inner img {
margin-bottom: 0!important;
}
2a. It looks like your plugin Simple Twitter Tweets is breaking the comments avatar alignment. Add this into the Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel to fix it:
.comment-list li.comment > div img.avatar {
margin-left: 0!important;
}
2b. This only true if you click on the comments link since it adds a hash into the URL like: http://www.hearthstone-league.be/?p=1141#comments
If you remove that hash it works: http://www.hearthstone-league.be/?p=1141
I plan on addressing that bug soon!
Cheers
Thanks a ton Nectar, everything worked except for the avatar alignment one but I’ll replace out the twitter plugin for another one.
Thanks so much, we can go live now! Much appreciated!
You’re very welcome
Cheers!
Is there anyway to have my Portfolio Subnav items – next to my Portfolio Top Nav, and do away with the gray bar completely to give my site more vertical real estate? I would be so incredibly happy if I could somehow figure this out. Thank you!
Hey Amy!
If you want to move the the filters to your main nav in a dropdown you could make links in that menu to go straight to portfolio categories. If you add /project-type/your-category onto your URL you can view all the items in a given portfolio category. For example http://themenectar.com/demo/salient/project-type/music
If your goal is to save vertical space this would be a good option and you could use this custom css to remove the title on the category pages too:
.tax-project-type .container-wrap > .container > .row { display: none!important }
Is there any way for it to still say “Sort Portfolio:” and then have the menu items? And is it possible to add another dividing line in the main nav?
Hey again,
Both of these items would require modding the header.php file to make it look right.
The /project-type makes sense, except the page no longer shows up in my Full Width Alternate 4 col Style I’ve been using. Is there a work around? Thank you so much for all of you’re help!!!
Yes – you just have to select that layout in your portfolio options tab in theme options panel
Cheers!
thank you!
You’re welcome
Hey Phectar,
My web launch was a success and I have to thank you for your kind help through out the process.
1- I completely overlooked the sidebar on the blog and there are Theme Nectar comments on the side. I looked at the comments section and spent 20 minutes manually deleting spam posts but couldn’t find those ones in particular.
Is there a way to find all of these in one shot and just delete them?
Also, a couple of color tweaks I’d like done just to particular pages I’m having difficulty with.
2 I’ve set the border in the contact section to 1 px but for some reason it isn’t showing up on the front?
3 How to change the background color of the comments field? When you click on an image in the portfolio section both the comments window and the text are white which makes it impossible to read what you’re typing.
Aside from that everything is locked down and looking great.Cheers!
-CS
Hey CS!
1. I removed them for you – just used the comment search for “themenectar”.
2. I’m not sure what you’re referring to here – can you elaborate a little more as to what border you’re referring to?
3. Changed it for you – if you want to alter it more the rule is in the top of your custom css box.
Cheers!
Hey Phectar,
The border that I was referring to is located at the bottom of each information field. There’s a drop shadow at the top which i’ve accomplished but there’s also a beveled highlight that ccs calls a border and like I said it’s just a highlight to compliment the cast shadow at the top and I’d like that effect for all information fields meaning the contact section and the comments inputs at the bottom of each post on the blog.
Here’s an example.
http://creaturebox.com/contact/Thanks so much for fixing that for me. I actually brought 2 new sales to you this past week! This theme rocks and others agree!
cheers
-CS
My apologies but also I’ve tried to change the Background color of the landing page for the blog. When you click on a post the background page is white. I saw this global code that someone was inquiring about months back and gave it a shot but it didn’t change the color. Here’s what I used.
body, .home-wrap { background-color:#260000!important; }
-The hover states for the post go dark as well.
-CS
Hey again – i’ve just sorted those items for you
Oh hey thanks Phectar. Where would the code be exactly so I can tweak the color?
In the custom css box in your options panel
Ahh there they are. Super thanks so much. . .. again!
You’re welcome
I Really appreciate your help. I owe you a custom drawing or something. . . .
Haha, that would be awesome!
Hello. On my page I’m trying to mod the output of portfolio object list/grid. My problem is that I cannot get portfolio content with the_content(). I am modding shortcode-processing.php the_title() works fine.. Any help please?
Hey ehakio, are you trying to generate the entire portfolio grid by using the_content() or just trying to use the content() to display whatever you have in your content editor for that page?
Hey. In trying to print just the thing that i have in content editor but the_content returns empty.
Hey,
It doesn’t make much sense to call the content of the editor from a shortcode since the shortcode is sitting inside of the content itself – it would cause a never ending loop. Are you using the portfolio page layout instead of the shortcode perhaps?
Im trying to get the portfolio content(from single portfolio editor) and print it to homepage(inside portfolio shortcode grid). The post content string happens to be empty.
If you have any advice, thanks. Maybe im just thinking wrong way around..
That helped me to understand what you were trying to do better
the_content should correctly be able to pull the data when used inside of the loop – but it keep in mind that it will only pull data from the first editor in your portfolio item i.e. the one that populates the sidebar on a non-fullwidth item. The extra content editor would require a different query.
hey there sorry to bother again but wanted to know if its possible to het the right vertical scrolling timeline like this http://www.flklrsurf.com/#hello or something similar, if so how could it be done and with what plugin or custom css.
Hey Juniormc, as of now it would require custom development but I’ll note this idea for the wishlist
Cheers
Thanks, hopefully when purchased it’ll get updated with that feature
You’re welcome
hey there i found one on github, however i dont know much about installing the plugin myself, was wondering if you could implement it http://www.thepetedesign.com/demos/onepage_scroll_demo.html# and when? because i think that it goes well with parallax home screen, and i really just want it
Hey again,
That’s a jQuery plugin not a WordPress plugin so even after the script was loaded you’d have to manually code each section in order to get the effect i.e. there will be no UI or WordPress integration. If you really want this implemented right now, I would suggest taking a look at microlancer.
Milestone symbols disappear when in mobile / tablet resolution. Any idea how to fix it?
Hey edugauche,
the fix for this is going to be included in next weeks minor update – I still have to do more investigation, but the it’s most likely JavaScript related and not a simple css fix.
Cheers
I’ll figure a way out with css for the time being then. Thanks!
You’re welcome
I keep getting: Could not create directory. salient/wpbakery/js_composer/assets/css/ui-custom-theme/images keep getting this when trying to upload the theme
Hey Scorpioproductions,
have you ensure it’s not a permissions problem? Also if you’ve already changed the permissions to be writable on your server have you tried to FTP the theme instead of using the dashboard uploader?
Cheers
Hey chonafree!
Currently only the page builder row with video background has this option. The Nectar Slider might get it one day, but for now that only has the option to add a texture overlay.
Cheers
Thank You! I am so thrilled with this theme! I’m enjoying setting up my fashion site!
You’re very welcome & that’s great to hear chonafree!
Is there a way of buying the nectar slider for my theme?
I mean the slider is awesome, but it would be a lot of work to transfer from my current theme just for the great slider.
Hey sailchecker, unfortunately it would take some work to port it out as of now but I hope to one day make it into a plugin
Hey emaillion!
When you were doing the custom mod you must have not changed all the areas correctly because your cart contents is not getting populated with products until the ajax kicks in when you add a new product. Your icon also gets replaced for the old one again when that happens and everything works.
ok what can i do in order to fix it ? can i send u admin access ? please help me, what’s your email i’ll send u admin access
the easiest way to fix it would be to restore the original files you modded by replacing them with freshly downloaded ones. After you have it working again you can following this ticket for all the areas to change: http://themenectar.ticksy.com/ticket/130812/search/
Cheers
Hi guys
Awesome theme! We’re getting closer to launching! I wanted to ask how can I make the Nectar Slider automatically change the slide every so many seconds. I can do it for the Home Slider but I can’t find a setting for the Nectar Slider.
Thanks Ovi
Sorry, my bad! Found it!
Hey Ovi! Glad to hear you found it
Cheers!
Hi, another quick question: How can I edit the text size within the Nectar Slider slides?
Hey again
The typography options panel will allow you to modify the sizes in the wide desktop viewport – but if you’re interested in adjusting the mobile sizes look for these rules in the mobile viewport in the responsive.css stylesheet located in the css folder.
body .swiper-slide .content h2 body .swiper-slide .content p body .swiper-slide .button a
Cheers!
