Hi again – I would like to have 2 page links in the footer. Is this possible? And I want those annoying paragraphs (like this empty space box between the orange and the beginning of the text: http://puu.sh/7THl1.png) removed.

Hey Moiety,

1. The only widget areas in the footer are the main columns above the copyright which you’ve turned off. If you want links in the copyright section you’d need to add them in the footer.php file.

2. Looking at your source code I can see HTML in that space that appears to be from you:
 
<p><a name="xbox_gift_card" class="local"></a></p>

Please switch into the text tab on your editor and remove it & any extra spaces that may be there to get rid of the p tag :)

Cheers

Thanks!

You’re welcome :)

Hello. I would like to please request a button style that fills on hover. For example, the white outline button. The jupiter and dante themes have this style. Works really good on the slider and is a little more obvious when selected. Thanks!

Thanks for the request joe88 :)

Cheers

Yeah, themenectar slide ordering page is blank …

Thanks for reporting OcalaWebsiteDesigns,

Just to let you & all others know – this is a known bug that will be sorted in the minor release coming out tonight. If you want to order your slides now just use this for the meantime: http://wordpress.org/plugins/intuitive-custom-post-order/

Cheers :)

Hi All,

could I ask you how can I add a button “read more” to a recent post? p.e. here: http://edux.vasefirma.com/kurzy-pro-verejnost I need to put a button under each column. Thanks for realy quick support and great theme! :)

Jay

Hey Jay!

You can either use the more tag on your editor: http://www.stickyreaders.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/more-tag-wordpress.jpg or simply activate the auto excerpt option inside of the Blog Options tab in the Salient Options panel :)

Cheers!

You are great! I like the new demo.

Thanks a lot royaltask, glad to hear! :)

muthm – I found that the transparent header has to be in conjunction with the Nectar slider.

Hey again greatnorwegian! Just to add to your statement – the transparent header will also activate if a page header is supplied (thus making it possible to use on any page/post)

Cheers :)

Hello,

When update to 4.0, the portfolio sidebar where social icons is located seem to be off place. How to fixes the problem?

Thanks!

Hey luvdesign,

This only occurs when not using the ext. responsive option available in the general settings tab of the Salient options panel. I’m going to sort this out for the minor update due out later tonight – thanks for reporting! :)

Hello I would like to report a problem in this update. There is a problem in header of the blog page – functions.php Displays the name of the last post instead of the name of the blog / page Look: http://www.reinodosol.org.br/blog/

Hey zubrycky, thanks for reporting! This issue has already been taken care of and the fix will be included in the update due out later tonight :)

Hello! I need to add a custom css for url button menu… I tried with this ul.sf-menu > li.myClass > a but not work. Which part of css menu I have to use?

Thank you so much!

Hey again!

I don’t see any custom classes on the items to target so in this example I’m just targeting a random list item in your menu:

 
body header#top nav .sf-menu li.current_page_item.menu-item-311 > a,
body header#top nav .sf-menu li.menu-item-311 > a {
  color: #000!important;
}

Cheers :)

Thank you for reply! Only a question.. is it possible like something body header#top nav .sf-menu .myclass li a ? And then in the menu admin I can call this clas in the custom css stlyle button?

thank you so much!

You’re very welcome!

Yes, except the correct selector would look like this:
body header#top nav .sf-menu li.myclass > a,
body header#top nav .sf-menu li.myclass.current_page_item > a {
  color: #000!important;
}

Hi, Can you tell me if your page builder would be able to create something like this layout: http://www.wpbyd.com/staging/screenshot1.png. Have a client that wants this homepage layout. Thank you.

Hey Dman222! Yes, that’s totally possible :)

Nice work. Say, I’d love to be able to add the texture-overlay to images within the Nectar slider but that option only exists for video. Is there some CSS magic you could recommend to allow me to ‘hard code’ an overlay effect on my images as well?

Keep up the great work and thank you for included the secondary logo option in this release. Your a man/team of your word!

Hey greatnorwegian!

You’d have to open the functions.php file and change this:

if($background_type == 'video_bg') {

    $active_texture = ($video_texture == 'on') ? 'active_texture' : '';
    $slider .=  '<div class="video-texture '.$active_texture.'"> <span class="ie-fix" /> </div>';

into:

$slider .=  '<div class="video-texture active_texture"> <span class="ie-fix" /> </div>';

if($background_type == 'video_bg') {

and it should display :)

awesome! many thanks!

You’re very welcome! :)

Is it possible to make the pricing table responsive? Like http://hogash.com/themeforest/?theme=kallyas_wp Also can I have a Center Header with the logo in the center like http://www.kriesi.at/themedemo/?theme=enfold

Hey maurinoloureiro,

1. The pricing tables are responsive by default: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-frostwave/features/pricing-tables/

2. This would require css I could provide :)

Cheers

Look, one is highlighted but when I hover to another one still the same. Once I hover the mouse I want bring him up.

Hey again,

Adding an effect like that would require some custom css development unfortunately.

Is there a master turn off option for the discussion option on the portfolio pages? Currently it automatically default checks the options of:

-Allow comments.
-Allow trackbacks and pingbacks on this page.

Thanks!

Hey Mark!

You can add this into the Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel to disable them in all portfolio items:

 
.single-portfolio .comments-section {
  display: none!important;
}

Cheers :)

Just done the upgrade and having some issues (http://racingconversations.com/) the transparent header did not show as transparent even when I tried a few options.

So I went back to custom CSS and now I have a white line at the top and still a scroll bar on the right.

Thanks for your help.

Hey muthm! If you wanna turn the option again so I can take a look I’d be glad to help troubleshoot :)

From what I can see the issue may have been as simple as you accidentally have a blank space entered in for your page header. Make sure those inputs are empty if you don’t intend on using the page header.

Cheers

Hello: I upgraded to version 4.0 and the logo in the header duplicate is me. Before there. Why can it be? Thanks

Hey digrafo,

Have you cleared your cache & done a clean update? If so please allow me to see your URL so I can check out what’s up :)

If I emptied the cache. Sorry I had not put me with it again.
In www.picogordo.com have page construction, please sign in by:
http://www.picogordo.com/index.php
or
http://www.picogordo.com/tienda/
How I can contact you directly?

It appears your header.php is using outdated markup – do you perhaps have a child theme with that file in it? If so you need to update that to match the current version. If that’s not the case, please just make sure you have the latest header.php file from 4.0 :)

“Slides Ordering” doesn’t work, ouch!

Hey MunnkCorp! Please see my response to velocity_uk in regards :)

Thanks!

You’re welcome :)

“Order Slides” doesn’t seem to be working – just get a blank screen here.

Thanks for reporting velocity_uk! This has already been taken care of and the fix will be included in tonights minor release :)

Cheers

Hi! I’m thinking about buying your theme. It looks like it has everything I need. I just have one question: I want to have some kind of “fullscreen horizontal slider for a mixed set of vertical and horizontal orientated pictures”.

A little bit more detailed: It should be a fullscreen (but does not need to be! a fixed height is fine, too, but fullscreen would be nicer!) horizontal slider with a mixed set of vertical and horizontal pictures. I imagine the pictures to be all the same height. Is there something like that in your theme and can you show me a demo?

You’re welcome!

Unfortunately the carousel element isn’t quite what you’re looking for as all items inside have to be the same width and it’s limited to three columns. An example can be seen on this page with the team members: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient/about/about-the-team/

as far as plugins go I’m not sure of one that does exactly that and would need to do some research to find the right fit.

Cheers :)

Hi! I just bought your theme cause it fits my needs! Still hoping for a solution for my “horizontal scroller”.

I found “Royal Slider” which has some possibilites but is not perfect. I achieved to make a “carousel” out of a wordpress gallery, but with that I’ve got to much empty space around the pictures! I would love to have some kind of “film stripe” so I’ve got a fixed height and full width area with some kind of “scroller” where I just can scroll horizontally through my pictures!

Hope you can do some research and perhaps you find something some other would be interested in, too! :)

Hey again! Welcome aboard – I’ll keep an eye out for this :)

Hi,

I am actually using the previous version (3.1.5) but having many bugs with Nectar Slider while using video background.

I have 2 sliders with a video background in each one. The two videos are hosted in the server of the web site.

My 2 videos are encoded in 3 formats = .mp4, .webm and also with .ogv

According to the help documentation I also added in the .htaccess file = AddType video/mp4 mp4 AddType video/mp4 m4v AddType video/ogg ogv AddType video/webm webm AddType video/webm webmv

The first issue = with Firefox (version 28.0) PC/MAC when the first slide is loaded with the first video I can hear the sound of the second video which loads in the same time.

The second issue = the video are not displayed on iPad.

The third issue = the video are not displayed with Internet Explorer.

My questions are :

1) Do you know how to solve this issues ?

2) If I upgrade the theme will it solve my bugs ?

3) I can not see any video background in the new version. Is it still possible to add video background in the Nectar Slider in the new upgrade ?

Hey digitalopenminded,

In regards to your issues:

1. Video backgrounds are not intended to have sound – since there’s no controls you’d be forcing it upon the user which is not ideal from a UX standpoint. If you want to have videos with sound it’s recommend to add the link to that video via a button in the slider that will open the video in a lightbox (you can still have a video BG that can act as a preview with no sound)

2. As covered in the Nectar Slider tutorial here: http://youtu.be/FLU9Pxo_RD8?t=6m34s it’s not possible to autoplay a video on mobile devices so a fallback image is used instead.

3. The only version of IE that won’t play the video is 8 and a fallback image will be used instead – if you’re experiencing other versions no playing the videos please share your URL so I can take a look :)

In regards to your questions:

1. Please check my above answers to your issues.

2. There was a few IE11 bugs fixed in 4.0 in regards to the nectar slider.

3. There’s video backgrounds all over the new demo including the home page – what are you seeing instead?

Cheers :)

Hi there, In a tutorial vids you suggested that self hosting videos was better than Vimeo & YouTube (Control, Parallax scrolling/smoother etc). Can you recomend what I should look at here a regarding player and how to get a version that plays like yours (no controls, watermarked logo etc)

I did take a look at JW Player but it leaves a watermark logo on all screens unless I pay $99 a year. What plugin or player do you use and is there an extra cost? Im currently on Vimeo Pro and happy to switch to achieve the same results as you if I buy.

Regards Andy

Hey Andy,

It’s only better when you’re embedding them into a slider – also the Nectar Slider only allows for self hosted videos if you’re trying to add video backgrounds. You don’t need to buy any player – the theme will handle it all for you. Video backgrounds don’t need a player at all and simply use the HTML5 video element & self hosted players for pages like this: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient/dining/auctor-consectetur-ligula/ are built in :)

Cheers

You’re welcome :)
