Is there a way to add feature products to the home page?
Hey swizenfeld!
Yes, you can use the WooCommerce shortcodes available on the editor to place featured products.

Hello, on a demo site the slider with logos in the firefox browser isn’t scrolled http://data2.floomby.com/files/share/11_4_2014/0/kSbqINreDUWTGEHL6dcNfw.png
Hey BookWar,
what exactly do you mean by they are not scrolled? If you’re referring to auto scrolling this option was turned off intentionally for the client slider on the home page.
Cheers
I badly speak in English, but I will try to explain. If guide the cursor at a logo and to pull to the left or to the right, the slider is scrolled. If to make the same in the Firefox browser, the slider isn’t scrolled.
Thanks for further explaining
I’ve checked in Firefox on Windows 7 and Mac but can’t replicate – can you let me know what version and OS you’re experiencing this in?
Cheers
windows 7 home basic, firefox 28.0
Hey again – it seems we’re checking on the same setup but I’m unable to see this. I’ll have to test some more but since there’s been no other reports of this can you attempt to check on another pc in the meantime?
Cheers
Sorry, problems in my computer. Everything works at other computers well.
No worries

Hi,
i am trying to update the theme by uploading the latest zip version downloaded and i get this error “Destination folder already exists. /home/blablabla/wp-content/themes/salient/ Theme install failed.”
where did i do wrong?
Hey crdesign1,
You just need to delete the current version of the theme before trying to upload the new one
ok, thanks, but am i going to lose setting made on the theme? like accent color options, blog option etc ?? i need to know this.
with my other themes, when it comes to update i have an option to update it through dashboard or if i want to upload it, the theme comes with a different name so i can have multiple versions instaled.
No you won’t lose any of the theme settings or content – all of that is stored in the database rather than the theme files
Cheers
Hi ThemeNectar, I just wanna notify you on bug (Salient 4.0 – 4.0.2 & Google Chrome – Windows, on Firefox is it OK). 1) In the new type of gallery (grid gallery) if click on image in first row, lightbox appear with arrows on sides, but then if I scroll down, arrows dissapear. 2) If I click on image in second row, arrows does not appar at all. As I wrote higher, I think is just specific for Google Chrome. For example I tried Safari on Mac too and ther was it OK. Thanks!
Hey rattar! Thanks for reporting this – i’ll be sure to look into this and fix whatever I find
Cheers
If I download the upgrade from 2.0 to 4.0 and replace the theme folder. In order to load the creative version and new files without overriding my own content…should I import demo files? Please keep in mind I am working directly with the theme, did not create child theme for it. Thanks!
Hey mayka06851!
As long as you have not edited the core files of the theme you’re using you’re safe to proceed as you mentioned. However keep in mind the dummy data file will only import pages that doesn’t already exist with the same name
Cheers
Did last wordpress affect the older versions of this theme, on my website now sponsors and previous participants logos are not visible on the bottom of the page, can you please advise. http://mobeyday.com/
Hey castleyu,
I can currently see them still there – what browser are you experiencing this on? (there’s no known issues with the latest WP update on any Salient version)
Cheers
Is there a new way to display an image gallery inside of a portfolio item?
Hey aarondub84! Yes, just make sure you’re adding it into the extra content editor on your portfolio item and there should be no issue.
Cheers
Hello ThemeNectar,
First off, I love the theme and it’s well worth the price!
I have a quick question hoping you’d have the answer to: I’m unable to see the tag line, my website is www.maidsinBLUE.com and the tag line is supposed to say Calgary & Area Home Cleaning, I’m thinking it’s got to do with the extra css code for the transparent header (but I tried without css text but it still wasn’t showing the tagline) Please help
Thanking you in advance
Ryaz
Thanks Ryaz!
The tagline is actually hidden by default to accommodate the header resize effect – have you considered simply making an actual logo image that would contain your name/tagline for more precise positioning and styling as well?
Cheers
How did you make the full width 3 column thumbnails of the staff images on the About Us: Extended page on the live demo?
I thought they were portfolio thumbnails but it looks like you can only constrain to 4 columns with that. Thanks!
Hey rumarketing!
It’s the team member element with the secondary style selected placed into 3 columns with the row type set to “Full width content”
How you can change the theme to choice the Modern Creative ? Thanks.
Hey Quentinus15, it’s not a skin or something to activate – the two demos are using the same theme version just with different pages created to show off different features/styles. Both sets of dummy data are included if you’re just looking to get the modern creative starting point though
I know I keep saying this, but can you maybe add in some social network api feeds to the next release? instagram, 500px, dribble etc would be amazing, have a look at this… http://codecanyon.net/item/500px-gallery-wordpress-plugin/7113295?WT.ac=solid_search_thumb&WT.seg_1=solid_search_thumb&WT.z_author=burtton
Hey Rich, thanks for the link!
Adding functionality like this is still on the wishlist
As you can see the groups B and F got more cell-padding like the others so, is there any way to make all the groups be using the same pattern? or be all same?
Thank you! and good job by the theme
Hey byanothername!
By default there’s no css class in place for that many columns 0 the max supported is 6. If you use more odd things can occur like that but if you can supply me a URL I’ll assist in making it normal
Cheers
if you can make this normal I would really appreciate it
Thank you! 
Thanks! Add this into the Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel:
header#top nav > ul > li.megamenu > ul > li {
width: 12.33%!important;
}
header#top nav > ul > li.megamenu > ul.sub-menu {
width: 100%!important;
}
Yes it works! Thank you so much and nice job with this theme I love it.
You’re very welcome
Hi, Nectar! Really a great theme! A few questions.
1. How can I change the trasparency of the dropdown menu background in the navigation? I found a way to make the mega menu transparent: body header#top nav > ul > li.megamenu > ul.sub-menu { background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.6)!important;} What do I need to make regular dropdown menu this effect too?
Also, can I change the font color of the menu items but not change the fonts in the mega menu and dropdown menu?
2. When I select products, the search icon in the nav is covered by the shopping cart icon, I chose the Full Width Header option in the Nectar settings. is that possible to move the nav and search icon to the left a bit? Or any other better way to deal with it?
Thanks so much.
Thanks weusthem!
1a. Add this into the Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel:
header#top .sf-menu li ul li a {
background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5)!important;
}
1b. and this:
header#top .sf-menu > li:not(.megamenu) ul li a {
color: #FF0000!important;
}
2. Thanks for pointing this out! This will indeed only occur when using the full width header option – I’ve noted to sort that for the next release. (The quickfix now would just be css to move the nav items a bit to the left)
Cheers
Hi Nectar! I have a problem with contact form 7 on the latest version of Salient – when I put it on the site, it adds an extra gray space between last row and footer – I can not set the page color to display on all the site, because there is always some gray space (about 60px) upon the footer.
Can you help me?
Greetings!
Hey Globema! If you can share your URL I’d be glad to assist
Hey again!
I’m seeing a few empty html tags appearing under the full width section – can you try switching into the text tab on your editor and deleting anything you find at the bottom under the full width section?
Hi, the problem was with contact form, when I delete it, and create new, everthing works fine. Thank you!
But I have one more issu, when I upgrade my site to salient 4: http://netstork.globema.pl/1023-2/ pictures with parallax effect disappeared (there should be parallax photo as a backgorund of milestones, and testimonials) everytime I make the background parallax it disappears.
Hey again!
This shouldn’t be a new issue of 4.0+ – it appears to be occurring due to the webkit transforms the slider you’re using has. Can you confirm by removing the slider for a second to test?
I have removed it, that’s true – it work, but what can I do with that?
webkit has a known browser level bug when using transforms with elements on the same page that use background-position: fixed (which the parallax sections need). I combat this in the Nectar Slider by hiding the slider when its scrolled out of view to cure the issue, but you’d need to write to the developer of your slider to see if they have a workaround
Cheers
Is it possible to use this as a single page theme? So basically hide navigation and search?
Hey ajaffarali,
Yes – add this into the Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel:
header#top .span_9 nav {
display: none!important;
}
Cheers
Thanks- that did it but I still have the horizontal thin line. I have disabled the logo as well but I still have the sticky menu that now shows up as a blank white line which looks a bit off.
Hey again – sorry I assumed you only wanted to remove the links but keep the header/logo.
Switch that snippet to this:
#header-outer {
display: none!important;
}
Cheers
Perfect- thank worked. One more question. I have set up 3 slides on the Nexus Slider but at the moment, I have to manually move between them (left/right arrows.) Is there a way to rotate between the slides automatically? The three slides are all video backgrounds basically with no text.
You can always add something in for the autorotate timing input to have the slides automatically advance. http://i.imgur.com/SZY951l.jpg
Cheers
That worked. Thanks again. Awesome theme and awesome support.
You’re very welcome!
Hey there!
Any idea why I’m getting the white bar around the bottom of my Nectar Slider and side of page?
http://replayhouse.com/studio/Thanks!

Hey Jack! It seems you have a blank h1 tag above you “Inside Replayhouse” – check the text tab in your editor and remove that. Should clear up the space
Cheers!
Hey! No luck I’m afraid :L
I removed the blank h1 tag but nothing seems to have changed. Could the issue be somewhere else?
Thanks!
Jack
Hey again! No luck im afraid :L I removed the h1 tag as you said. Perhaps the issues is somewhere else? Hope you can help,
Thanks ,
Jack
I’m also noticing that you’re stylesheet is missing the browser reset that should be at the top. Can you open the style.css file in your theme directory and ensure this is at the top near line 30?
html, body, div, span, applet, object, iframe, table, caption, tbody, tfoot, thead, tr, th, td,
del, dfn, em, font, img, ins, kbd, q, s, samp, small, strike, strong, sub, sup, tt, var,
h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, p, blockquote, pre, a, abbr, acronym, address, big, cite, code,
dl, dt, dd, ol, ul, li, fieldset, form, label, legend {
vertical-align: baseline;
font-family: inherit;
font-weight: inherit;
font-style: inherit;
font-size: 100%;
outline: 0;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
border: 0;
}
Cheers
Thanks! I put it in under the
/—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—--/
/* 1. Browser Reset + Font Face
/—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—--/
Still no changes to the initial problem of the white bar under the Nectar Slider tho. Any ideas?
Thanks again,
Jack
Hey again!
Inspecting your style.css file in the browser it appears you copied the pre tags in around it which can’t be there and that you also have this<link href="http://replayhouse.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/apple-touch-icon.png" rel="apple-touch-icon" />
sitting in there too? That could be what was breaking the reset section in the first place. If you can locate that line please remove it
Wow thanks for the quick response! Fantastic thats fixed it! Thanks so much for the help, best theme in town. I’ve another couple of sites to do in the next few months, il be back!
Jack
You’re very welcome Jack! Glad it’s been sorted
Where did you get the Viking video from? Would love to use that and a couple of other videos like that.
Hey ajaffarali, this was provided by Pedro Conti – you could try getting in touch to ask for his permission to use it on your site as well but you’d probably need to give credit somewhere
Cheers
Hi – I would like to have the Add to cart button displayed under the product. Could you help me with this?
Hey Moiety,
since this would need to be done through WooCommerce filters and has nothing to do with the actual theme you’re running – it would best to pose this question on the WooCommerce forums. I’m sure the nice folks over there could shed some light on it
Cheers
Dear ThemeNectar,
I am having the problem that my editor is completely gone and blank. Herefore I cannot update my pages. There is no text shown and the button of the visual editor is gone. Besides this the Nectar short codes button also fails to work.
What is the solution for this?
See my attached files.
http://i.imgur.com/wPAKxhE.png http://i.imgur.com/7KoetWw.pngHey MarketingFlorijn!
It appears there’s some sort of scripting error – if you’ve already checked to make sure it’s not a plugin conflict please allow me to log in so I can see what’s going on
You can open a ticket with your login credentials here: http://themenectar.ticksy.com/
Cheers
Thanks for your response.
I opened a ticket (both public an private). Can I safely give my login-details in de private ticket?
Kind regards,
You’re safe to give them in the private one, yes
OK I posted them there, now awaiting for (hopefully) a solution..
Thanks! I’ll be with you as soon as I can
Just a quick question. I am using the ‘Landing Page’ as my Home. Under the testimonial box, i have chosen a background image however wanted to put a black background with around 70% opacity so see the white text.
This functionality however does not seem to be working.. Can someone please confirm?
Hey again Andy,
The background would have to be on the row holding the testimonial slider and the background color with 70% opacity would need to be on the column holding the testimonial slider – if you can share your URL I’d be glad to look into this for you
Okay.
So here is a link to my website – http://andypluslam.com.au/
I have figured out the opacity thing asked earlier however the problem now is why the background is not full white, as per the logos?
If you look closely, the logo backgrounds and the background of that section are two different tones. This wont changed despite me setting the background at #fffff
Thanks,
Andy.
Hey again! Can you let me know exactly where on your site you’re referring to with the white issue? The client slider I see on your home page linked shows up completely white for me at the moment.
