Why did the format change on my site?!!? Last night it was exactly how I wanted it. Today I open it up and now my nav tabs are in a drop down format, my footers are centered, my blog has gone to a single column and the side bar is now below it.

??

Hey MiaGal, I would need to see your URL in order to help out :)

It is not live yet so I’ll do a private ticket

Sounds good :)

Hi any way to get the megamenu to show content? http://tinypic.com/r/9ibqsm/8

Hey kylesalonga! That would require custom development or the use of ubermenu :)

How do I change the language of the date format for the portfolio and blog items? I have not found it on the default.po file.

Hey Jussimir,

the language of that should be determined by what language you’ve set WordPress to in thew wp-config.php

Ok thanks very much, now is working =D

You’re welcome!

Hi, nice theme. Does it come with 1 click install demo data? Does it come with the New York city video stock that’s in the About page? Where can I obtain that video?

Hey WebCreative4302013!

1. There’s a dummy data file included but you must use the WordPress importer to upload it (only takes a minute)

2. I’m glad you found the info – as you’ve noted all the sources are listed in the user guide :)

Cheers

If video is purchased what do I need to do in order to swap out your video with mine in terms of format, size, etc. for it to load quickly and loop smoothly?

You need to convert it into mp4 and webm file types, ensure the file size isn’t much more than 20-30mb (for that small of a loop) and you can leave it in Full HD for the size as I did on the demo :)

Thanks for the great theme!

I can not see my video on IE & firefox on window 8.

But I can your video well at http://themenectar.com/demo/salient/ on the same device.

Any suggestions would be highly appreciated.

Hey mu1975!

If you can send me a URL i’d be glad to take a look at why that might be :)

www.botaniss.com is the URL. Thank you in advance.

Hey again! Have you already followed the “Troubleshooting Video Backgrounds” in the user guide? http://themenectar.com/docs/salient.pdf

Hi :-)

Is there some way you can avoid setting all this up and instead building the site up from you exact same template (http://themenectar.com/demo/salient/)

So you just have to change you information, your products and so on?

Hope you understand – The reason i’m asking is, in not that good at this.

Hey bendorff1991!

Yes, there’s a dummy data file included which contains all the layouts form the demo :)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_wKJFYCZN1U

hi~~!!!! Set the page to `home recent posts` and it will come up with 4 posts. Can you tell me how to increase the number of `recent posts`?

The number of posts displayed if the page is set as the home recent posts is four. Please let me know how the number of recent posts can be increased.

How can I set my blog just like the home-blog at the live priview? That ’s what I wanted and I want to know about it in detail.

Hey backin79,

that layout doesn’t use the recent posts layout so change that to “Slider Only” – what is needed for that is the actual blog element accessible in your page builder/shortcodes. That will generate a full blog with as many posts as you need in any of the available layouts :)

It is possible add slider in post?

Then I found a lag on mobile device when I drag my finger in opposite direction.

Example is I dra 2 times down and when I go up there is a very heavy lag.

Test ipad4

Thanks

This happen sometimes for example when I switch browser tab

Hey kaz2057,

you can add a slider, but you shouldn’t set it to fullwidth. Please share your URL so I can see the lag you’re talking about :)

hello,

I want to implement a gallery like ‘http://creaturebox.com/gallery/' please help asap. secondly, My fonts are not working,please assist url is http://marchofrobots.com/wordpress/

Thanks

Hey,

1. That was custom created by them – you’d need a plugin if you didn’t want to write some markup yourself.

2. It seems you’ve created a custom class “parallax_cont” and only missed applying it to the first heading/paragraph.

Cheers :)

u mean i need a plugin to implement gallery like http://creaturebox.com/gallery/' ,can u suggest some plugin please? Can’t this gallery be implemented using portofolio option?

The portfolio doesn’t offer columns that tiny – this would be more appropriate for a standard WordPress gallery and you could use a plugin like http://wordpress.org/plugins/jquery-lightbox-for-native-galleries/ to make them lightbox

I love the portfolio layouts and the ability to ‘love’ them.

Could you please add a feature that allows users to Sort By: Date Added Most Loved

Otherwise I love everything else, if that is implemented then I will definitely buy it as no other theme seems to have this functionality.

Hey sletts02,

Thanks for the suggestion! I’ll note this for the wishlist, but for now this would indeed require some custom development.

Cheers

Hi ThemeNectar Support,

First I want to say this is an amazing theme! I’m currently using it but I have a question. I want to use a custom font for Home Slider but I don’t really know how. I have the font uploaded in css/fonts but then which php/css doc should I edit to have a result?

Thank you a lot!

Hey topvase! You can handle it all in the main stylesheet (style.css) here’s a quick guide on it: http://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/using-font-face/

Hey Nectar,

Two questions:

1) why does a black bar appear between the header and the body of the page when I use the Nectar Slider? (It’s large in chrome and appears on scroll in other browsers): http://www.upupweddings.com/

When I change the slider to full width the black bar goes away but then text padding in the body of the page goes away – making it look like the footer is almost cutting off the text.

2) I know you can have a transparent background color behind a caption on the nectar slider. How do I apply that same affect to the heading instead of the caption?

Can you please allow me to log in so I can check on it for you? Shoot me an email at themenectar@gmail.com with credentials :)

Cheers

will do, thanks!

I’m starting another website under another domain name. Can I use my single license for it or I will have to buy another one? I do not sale the site to someone else.

Hey Marc!

You’re supposed to only use the theme once per domain so it would legally require another license.

Cheers :)

What’s a quick way to add a slider to the home page?

I have set the home page: Apperance > Menu > Front Page Displays > Your Latest Posts. I need the front page to show at least 125 posts. It’s cutting off at 10. What .php file can I adjust to change this limit?

Figured it out. Thanks for the excellent template!

Hey again – glad you sorted the problem :)

Hi ThemeNectar,

Is there any possible way to make the header bar transparent?

That would be awesome combined with video/pic full width/height sliders.

Hey hookieoalo!

Add this into your Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel:

#header-space {
   display: none!important;
}

#header-outer {
   background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0.9)!important;
}

Cheers :)

Why there is no Google+

Hello sai2,

As of a few months ago when I last checked, Google+ does not allow for a share count to be retrieved outside of their default sharing button they provide which is why I have not added it as an option in Salient yet. I would be forced to either drop the counts for the other buttons or have Google+ not display a count and look broken.

Quick question regarding the font for the main logo. I tried to change the font in style.css (I’m using a child theme) by altering:

header#top #logo {

However it won’t pick up the new font. It sticks with the default font.

Hey Rob!

Try using this:
body header#top #logo {
  font-family: 'helvetica'!important
}

hi… i want to set up Blog Category Page Header Image

Hey backin79,

The only way you could do that would be to create a new page, set your header image as normal and then place a blog shortcode/element on the page which is set to only show your desired category.

Cheers :)

Hey there,

Is it possible to add a poll plugin which used the same template as the default template? Please let me know which plugin to download.

Thanks in advance

Hey IVSIVRIS,

Unfortunately I don’t have any poll plugins to recommend and haven’t been asked about them much to through my insight out there – if you get one and encounter any bad styling errors just show me and I’ll see if there’s a quickfix :)

Cheers

Hi! Thanx for Great Theme!

I have a small question, do you plan add testimotional with photos like here http://themeforest.net/item/blandes-multipurpose-responsive-wordpress-theme/full_screen_preview/6511749
