Hey. I want to populate the template on a “staging” server (entirely different host). How would I then transfer it to the final host server? Or is that a larger discussion? Is it a complex process?

You’re welcome!

Moving a WordPress site can feel daunting the first time you try it depending on your experience – have you ever tried to move one before?

Cheers :)

No. I’ve never tried it. I read up on it and then get overwhelmed and give up. I’m tempted to just populate the site on a staging server until it looks the way I want it to and then just repopulate it on the live site in the middle of the night like one of Santa’s little helpers.

Am I making this more difficult than it really is?

If you’re interested, watching a video on the process could make it easier to understand: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LaPi8wtalbM :)

Great update. I’ve fallen in love, so please take these suggestions with that in mind. Three little items…

1. Minor – Although there was an update the zip name was the same as the previous version.

2. Nectar Slide Feature request. I always spent a lot of time on the slide shows tweaking the text. The Slide Ordering tab is perfectly laid out for reorganizing the slides, but it would be great if we could a .display both Heading and Caption and b. allow us to edit them there.

3. I’ve been coding for a while, but… I missed the fact that there was a combobox where I could select the Slider Location… Maybe others do too? On hd 1920×1080 resolution the combobox is so wide you miss the down arrow. How about using a 50% width? Slider location names should fit easily.

Thanks again. Love Salient!

Hey SteveZL! Thanks for the suggestions and reports :)

Cheers!

Awesome theme, thanks. Can you assist with the custom css to change the row background color on hover?

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

 
.wpb_row.striphover {
   transition: background-color 0.2s linear;
  -webkit-transition: background-color 0.2s linear;
}

.wpb_row.striphover:hover {
  background-color: #97e2ed!important;
}

Cheers!

Thank you for the help.

You’re welcome :)

hey, i am struggling to get a style like you have on this page ( http://themeforest.net/item/salient-responsive-multipurpose-theme/full_screen_preview/4363266 ), i want to be able to have colored blocks like you do in colums, can you please help me out with a example?

Hey andrewlhoward,

there’s a dummy data file included which you can import to get all the setups if you desire – also there’s going to be new Youtube tutorials soon for 4.0 features :)

the design is created by simply setting your row in visual composer to “full width content” and then setting background colors on each of your columns.

Cheers!

Hy,

I have a problem with fonts end images. The font look strange and load time and i need to scroll to have the font look good. the images at load time are doing something strange, i don’t now how to explain, is better to see for yourself.this happens in firefox

www.specializate.ro | I’l much appreciate any help

Best regards, Bogdan

Hey Bogdan,

I can’t seem to see anything wrong in Firefox/Chrome on load before scrolling. I checked on Windows 7 & Mac – what are you looking on?

Cheers

Hi,

Is it possible to like change the name Salient in WP-admin on left side? To like a client name?

and also in customize when you are previewing the salient theme there is a logo as well?

:)

I got this

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/smart/public_html/ny/wp-content/themes/salient/nectar/options/options-init.php on line 139

Hey I tried to change back to salient but it stills gets an error and I am having a client meeting within 20min.!!!!!!!

Hey – sorry to hear you ran into issues with it. Unfortunately I was asleep after I answered you. From the sounds of it, you just had a syntax error. If you wanna let me log in to change it for you I’d be happy to or an easy way to restore it to working condition would be to simply replace the file with one from a freshly downloaded version from ThemeForest :)

Cheers

Just updated to 4.1 and I seem to have lost my portfolio … tried rebuilding it with shortcodes a few times but no luck … http://www.seanobrien.com.au/media/

Not a plugin conflict, as made no difference if I deactivated all of them.

Hey Sean,

Checking your URL you’re somehow using a very outdated version of the main theme javascript file (init.js). Did you delete the old theme before uploading the release?

Cheers

ahhhhhh perfect! I just reuploaded that file and all working perfectly. Good spot, thanks!

You’re welcome! :)

Hello mate, to echo the other comments here… thanks for another brilliant update with ‘Frostwave’ :) I LOVE the new demo too.

  • Is there any way to remove the bottom header line when in transparent mode? I had a little search through the discussion and the support forum & couldn’t find a similar Q&A.

Thanks again, Darrell

Hey Darrell! Glad to hear you love it :)

1. Yes, add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:

html body #header-outer.transparent[data-transparent-header="true"] {
  border: none!important;
}

2. This only occurs when the smooth scrolling option is enabled in the theme options & parallax sections exist – I’m considering disabling that option for Safari all together since it can’t handle it as well as other browsers.

Cheers!

Thanks for the snippet, much appreciated ;)

In terms of Safari – that makes a lot of sense. I noticed it with smooth scrolling on my own site so disabled it and also with the image animations from time to time. Safari appears to suffer from quite a few little quirks!

Thanks again, D

You’re very welcome!

Cheers :)

Hi and thank you for an awesome theme! I have two questions, and I’ve been trying to search both the forum and woocommerce, but have’nt found an answer.

1. I am using woocommerce with the sidebar and it’s currently displaying three product/category images on each row. How can I change it to display four images each row instead? (And the images then of course needs to be a little bit smaller to fit)

2. I can’t seem to find where I can change the woocommerce turqoise/petroleum accent color to my desired color? Could you give me a few pointers where to look?

Hi again!

I added the snippet, but it seems to be a little bit trickier. The images are now smaller, but are still only displaying 3 in a row.

See here: http://nytt.creativfriskvard.se/produkt-kategori/kinesiologytape-3/kindmax/

Any idea of what I can do?

Thank you!

Hi again,

Just wanted to let you know that I experimented with the right margin percentage, and by setting it to 1% instead of 2% it works like a charm.

Good to hear! :)

Anybody else having an issue with the latest update and Page Title (entry-title) for blogs or custom post-types not showing up at all?

Update: Very odd thing is happening. Entry-title actually does show in other responsive screen sizes but just not for this one:

@media only screen and (max-width: 1300px) and (min-width: 1000px)

Hey ehong33234, no reports have come in for that yet, but if you can provide me access to your site I’d be glad to take a look :)

Cheers

Private message sent. Thx!

Thank you! :)

Silly question: I see you just updated you theme. How do I go about updating it on my site? I want to make sure I don’t somehow, mess things up. :)

Hey atplay2! You can update by downloading a fresh copy from ThemeForest, deleting the current version you have on your server and uploading the new. I recommend using FTP, but you can use the WP dashboard if you prefer. You won’t lose any of your content or theme settings so don’t worry about that if you were :)

Thank you.

You’re welcome :)

Hi does the shop work for Australia with bank transfers, and can you accept credit card payments from it

Thanks

Hey markuspd,

the shop is entirely powered by WooCommerce as most themes are on ThemeForest – you can confirm it meets all of your requirements by checking out their main site: http://www.woothemes.com/woocommerce/

Cheers :)

Hi ThemeNecatar, two questions: 1. is there a way to disable the “Leave a Reply” section in the blog page (generally or per each blog post entry)? 2. Can the buttons and some text strings of the entire theme be easily trasnlated in another language (other than english), without having to mess around with the php-files? eg. the entire blog section as well as other sections of the theme have got english terminology like “Posted by”, “Leave a reply”, “No comments”, etc. Any hint to translate those strings would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hey again! You don’t need to do anything about it, it’s just a warning (the same warning coming from some of your plugins as well).

Cheers :)

Hi again, thanks for your quick reply, really appreciate your fanstastic support! I would like to completely remove the part highlighted in the printscreen attached. Could you please tell me, which php-files to modify for this? I dropped the codestyling localization plugin, cause it was slowing my site down. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16957693/remove%20blog%20information.jpg

Thank you!

You’re very welcome!

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

 .meta-comment-count, .meta-author {
  display: none!important;
}

Is there any possible way to add a Google Adsense code where the 2nd menu is? if you take a look at EverythingDriven.com there is a nice size gap between the Search magnifying glass and the logo. I would like to add a google adsense logo there.

Hey yeaitsedgar,

it’s possible but you’d need to add the code to call the ad directly into the header.php file and then probably position it via CSS :)

hello what font is that on the home page the bold font

Hey plummerforcongress! The font is “lovelo”.

Cheers

I cannot understand, if I am sharing www.idmtl.com on facebook, I still have some “Phasellus enim libero, blandit vel sapien vitae, condimentum ultricies magna et. Quisque euismod orci ut et lobortis aliquam. Aliquam in tortor enim.” that appear. where to change that ?? My main page does not have that !

Hey thecrazyblueman, when I share your URL I’m seeing “Expliquez votre design ou votre idée en 60 secondes dans le but de susciter l’intérêt des gens à se joindre à votre équipe.” Are you still having this issue?

Hi Nectar, your theme is awesome, I love it :) Just one question: I’m using the “zoom effect on hover” for all my portfolio items, Is it posible to hide the “title overlaid + date” from the thumbnail? I only want to see the image with the zoom effect.

thx in advance

Add this as well :)

.portfolio-items .col .work-item.style-3 .work-info-bg {
   display: none!important;
}

Cheers

wow great, just what I wanted, thx for the support :)

You’re very welcome! :)

Hi! On my portfolio page: http://iwork3.us/portfolio/ it used to be when i hovered over each img, it will turn to my accent color.

Now it has taken salient’s accent color (teal) as its own. Any clues?

Any help would be great! This theme and your constant updates is totally out of this world! I’m constantly having a headache because of thinking of new things to add and new ways to do things.

Thanks

oh, and was the syntax error fixed? or is it something i need to look into? thanks!

nvm. i figured it out. THANK YOU so very much, once again.

Sorry for the delay & glad to hear you sorted it! :)

Cheers meic01!

Thanks for all the updates! It looks like the accent-color doesn’t take the value from Accent Color custom setting and I always get the default aqua color. I added a custom css: .nectar-button { background-color: #ec4350;}

which works fine but I’m not sure if it’s a bug or I missed something :)

Cheers!

Hey Poloplayer! Are you experiencing this for all elements or just a nectar button? If it’s only occurring on the CTA button then this is a known issue :)

Cheers

Hi Theme Nectar

Hi and how are you doing? Our site is nearly ready.

I have three questions:

1. On the homepage we have three portfolio items, and each is linked to a specific product page. http://www.mmevelo.com when I hoover over the portfolio item, darken cover appears with a light title of the portfolio on in the middle of the item. How to have more text on the portfolio image when I hoover over it? Like on this page http://functionals.eu/ here you see three square portfolio items, with text, price, item title, and read more.

Also, I am trying to make those three portoflio items on the home page to be squares, right now they are rectangles, nearly squares, but not completely. How to make them squares?

2. For one of the pages of the site, the about page, I need a smaller font, like H7. What should I do to be able to include h7 fonts?

3. the product page. How to make the main product image appear bigger? I changed the main image size in the woocommerce options, into as big as1000×1050, but it did not change the size of the image of the product on the product page. http://www.mmevelo.com/produkt/plecak-rowerowy-mmevelo-sunshine/

Thank you for your help :) best wishes

Your theme is awesomeness M.

Hey again!

1. The top of the image is actually aligned with the heading text, it seems the image you’ve uploaded just had a good amount of blank space at the top/bottom: http://www.mmevelo.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/tur-wiek.png

2. That will actually cause a lot of problems, the child functions.php should only add to the parent functions.php – if you make it an entire duplicate file it’ll probably just break the site. For now it would be best to keep track of that specific mod for updates to reapply since it’s just one line to change.

Cheers :)

Thank you!

You’re welcome! :)
