Using posts, is it possible to show/hide the sidebar on per post basis? On certain posts, I would love to display full browser width images but I need to hide the sidebar for that to happen.
Also, do you know if the menu can work with something like Mega Menu. Would love to show recent posts in a category with the image.
Finally, what would be the best way to add a 728×90 banner somewhere in the header?
Hey ajaffarali,
1. This would require custom development or custom css rules to show/hide the sidebar on specific pages based on the post id.
2. If you meant uber menu – yes, but it would require the use of a child theme to modify the header.php to make it work. (there’s a guide on their site about the process)
3. Adding it directly into the header.php file and using css to position it would be the best way

omriamos Thanks a ton for your advice – I’ve used your code, but it seems to have left the negative space at the top of my page. Ideally I’d like to have no project title and the nectar slider appear as the first page element underneath the header.
Example here: http://www.husamelfaki.net/home/?portfolio=slashthree-v5
Any help appreciated!
Hey again husamelfaki! If the goal is to have 0 space on top use this instead:
#full_width_portfolio .project-title {
display: none!important;
}
Cheers
That got rid of some space so thank you for that…seems like I still need to get rid of 93px from a rogue margin-top somewhere? Check that page =)
Currently the page is password protected – could you let me know the pass so I can check it out?
Whoops!! Try ‘husam1’ =)
No problem! Add this as well:
#full_width_portfolio .parallax_slider_outer {
margin-top: -15px !important;
}
Absolutely killed it – You’re amazing. Thank you!! Will send you the final product when I release. Cheers!
You’re very welcome
Cheers!
Hey guys,
Bought the theme and passed it on to a friend who is going to help me build my website. He came back to me and said he’s not familiar with wordpress.
He asked whether or not you guys are able to provide me with a generic HTML template?
Thanks in advance.
Hey mv726,
unfortunately there’s no HTML version available to buy – however if you’ve already bought the WordPress version you could try and have your friend extract the HTML from it if he’s comfortable with some coding
Hi Again,
Can someone please point me in the right direction to get the source image for the background world map in the demo here:
http://themeforest.net/item/salient-responsive-multipurpose-theme/full_screen_preview/4363266Just the same image used behind the testimonials and client logos.

Hi Fellas,
The portfolio section is doing my head in and i need your help. Basically what i have are some portfolio images which are 950×530 pixels.
I’ve uploaded it on the site which you can see here -http://andypluslam.com.au/portfolio/one-more-beer/
Why is the theme stretching and pulling the images? I just want it to sit exactly how i made the images.
Cheers,
Andy.
Hey Andy,
if you’re referring to the image gallery element you’ve place you would need to use the Basic slider style or an actual Nectar Slider (with the flexible height option selected) to have the images stay at a fixed proportion
Cheers
Hey,
I’ve used the image gallery element with the basic slider however it seems to still be pulling the images?
Cheers.
Can you change it to the basic style so i can take a peek?
I have changed it to the basic slider for you to see! It appears as 1265×1235 instead of the 950×530 i wanted.
The size of the slider will change depending on the screen size as you have it in a full width content section which always scales to the current space available. If you shrink your shrink a little you’ll see. What’s important is that it’s staying in the correct proportions though so no clipping is occurring – if you’d prefer to have an unresponsive slider you’d need to change the row type to now be full width content and then set a css rule to force the slider to always remain that size (which will need to be handled for mobile too since it will go off the screen)
Hi,

Hey mythem_es, feel free to shoot me an email at themenectar@gmail.com
hello Nactar, Please help me in Nectar Slider. I created 2 slide, use short code to home page but I can not see anything. Also trying to import your dummy data, change static home to home-basic page (from dummy data) which have slider but can not see anything. I’m using WP 3.8.2
Thanks
Hey dominicnguyen,
please share your URL so I can see what’s going on
Cheers
Hi guys
Fantastic theme, i was just wondering if you could add the fade in animation to any row? I have a page with just text elements in it and want to make them fade in like a blog page
Thanks
Nic
Hey Nic!
you can add the fade animation to any column(s) so the answer is yes – check out this tutorial in regards: http://youtu.be/N4mt0lOJ888?t=4m40s
Hi mate. Sorry for spamming:
Also: Your visual components/ elements – is it possible to modify your elements and add new? e.g. my own set of elements? You have the Text+icon box. But what if I wanted the icon to be centered horizontaly instead of aligned to top?
Cheers
Peter
Hey again!
A modification like in your example would be a css edit rather than requiring a new visual composer element all together – however if you wanted to add your own the answer is yes, but you’d need to be comfortable with WordPress coding to a decent extent: http://kb.wpbakery.com/index.php?title=Vc_map

Hi there, Since updating I’m now getting a gap between the header and portfolio content, how do I fix this? Best example here – http://www.samueljustice.net/portfolio/battlefield-4-naval-strike/ Kind regards, Sam
Hey!
Add this into the Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel:
.single-portfolio .row.project-title .container .title-wrap {
padding: 0!important;
}
Brilliant, thanks!
You’re welcome
How can I add a Facebook widget (images and likes) in the bottom footer?
Hey peter4576!
You’d need to install a Facebook widget plugin of your choice – since the bottom columns are merely WordPress widget areas, it’s really up to you what you place there
Also I think you should add a FAQ PDF to your documentation. I bet it will save you tonnes of time answering the same comments. Like “How do I add my custom icons instead of the Font Awesome” etc.
Hey again!
There’s an FAQ that’s constantly building on the support forum: http://themenectar.ticksy.com
Cheers
Hi there.
I just bought this template. Best one ever! However, I DONT understand why you only provide a text pdf-help document instead of displaying IMAGES and explain how to do in your demo.
OR inside your demo you should write HOW you did things. Cos Im nin-techy and dont stand a chance…
cheers Peter
Hey Peter,
Glad you like it There’s actually a video tutorial series that explains how to do just about everything you could want. Have you checked it out yet? https://www.youtube.com/user/ThemeNectar
Is there anyway to give the testimonials section a fixed height, so that it doesn’t change heights all the time with different lengthed text. I tried doing it with CSS classes and it wouldn’t work, and tried modifying the wrapper but it changes all of the sections.
Hey niccyboy, since the height of the testimonials will change in each view depending on how big of a screen its being viewed on this would ideally require some JS development. The ability to toggle this functionality is already on the wishlist too. However if you don’t mind writing a few media queries to set the height in the various views (desktop, ipad mobile etc) – I can supply the correct css to target it if you share your URL
To those wanting to adjust the color of the Nav menu when in transparency mode, just add the following to your custom css (Salient > General Settings – Custom CSS Code) and change the color value to whatever you like:
#header-outer.transparent header#top nav > ul > li > a, #header-outer.transparent header#top nav ul #search-btn a span, #header-outer.transparent .sf-sub-indicator [class^="icon-"] {
color:#fff!important
}
Hey theorian82!
There’s an input in the options panel for this called “Header Starting Text Color” that appears once you’ve checked the option for the transparent header effect
Can’t seem to get the “static” command to work on the nectar slider, is there anything else I need to do other than add the command in extra class box on the slider page?
Loving the theme, feel like I’m using wordpress properly for the first time!
Hey quick-brown-fox!
That should be all that is required – would you mind sharing your URL so I can take a peek?
Cheers
Sure, thanks for getting back to me. http://quick-brown-fox.com
Thanks!
It looks like it’s working normally to me – if you just look at the text on the slide with the static class you’ll see it doesn’t move at a different speed than the BG image like the others. Were you looking for different functionality out of it?
I just tried it in Firefox and it works! My primary browser is Safari, in which it remains static. It’s not an issue really, I just wanted to test it out to make sure I’m getting to grips with the theme. It’s all new to me!
Ah yes, the parallax effect I opted to tone down the parallax effect for Safari since it’s lower performing than other browsers & leaving it on in combination with the smooth scrolling option really put the browser in too much stress.
Cheers
Thanks again for the answer. At least I’m doing it right, and I’m happy with the way it looks in Safari, anything else is a bonus. Great theme, I’ve had lots of compliments about the site so far.
No problem & glad to hear
Cheers!
Hello,
Great theme! You have done an amazing job with integrating lots of useful functionalities. Thank you.
I am trying to have the secondary top menu hide while scrolling down. I am trying to only have the main menu but not the secondary. Could you please give some insight on how this can be achieved. Your help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
Thanks ATPHOTOSYS!
Unfortunately this would require javascript development – if you want to take a stab at it the correct place to add the code would be in the init.js file located in the js folder. Essentially there would need to be a scroll event that listens for when the window has been scrolled down from the top and hide/show the top nav accordingly
husamelfaki, if you’ll ever see this comment….
I have done the same thing just add this custom css in the General Settings page:
/* hide portfolio title */
.project-title .container {
display: none;
}
Hey omriamos, thanks for helping husamelfaki out!
Hi,
Just wanted to let you know that there is an annoying white line when using the transparent header… http://screencast.com/t/yDbeUeunoBI believe it’s a bug, but maybe it’s intentional.. In any case I fixed it manually by adding this custom CSS:
/* remove unwanted horizontal line from transparent header */
body #header-outer.transparent[data-transparent-header="true"] {
border-bottom: 0 !important;
}
Hey omriamos, that is indeed intentional as seen all throughout the demo – your css is correct for removing it though
Cheers
Hi! Awesome theme again, and thank you for helping me with a question so rapidly in the past.
I wanted to ask if there’s a way to simply remove the title header on all of my pages? Specifically, right underneath main header with my logo and links, when I navigate to a portfolio item page there’s a title with some left/right navigation on there and all. I want to completely get rid of it as I plan to customise the page to be as simple as possible. Any tips or recommendations?
Thank you very much! Awesome work.
Hey husamelfaki!
Add this into the Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel:
.project-title .container { display: none!important; }
Cheers
