Hi there,
for custom layout how can I have 7 columns please, I have tried: 1/7 + 1/7 + 1/7 + 1/7 + 1/7 + 1/7 + 1/7 but that didn’t work out.
thank you
Hey 
Unfortunately this wouldn’t be possible without custom development since Salient is based on a 12 column grid system.
Cheers
no problem, I will work around it! thanks for getting back to me!
You’re very welcome! 
Hey ThemeNectar,
i love the theme and how it works. Since the last Update (WP and the Theme) i have many problems to open the page within my Safari. Chrome works fine (i think it might be the mp4/webm video support?). My friends told me that their Firefox at Windows does also work fine. Safari on iPad and iPhone has also performance issues.
I already did a full reset with my safari (cache etc) but no change at. Do you have any idea what the problem might cause?

Many thanks in advance Daniel
Hey Gefilmt!
I just checked on Safari (windows & mac) but can’t see anything wrong – can you let me know what some of the issues you’re experiencing are?
Cheers
Hello Nectar,
I just updated the themes to the most current version and the button on my nectar slider got messed up (at least in Chrome and Firefox). http://www.upupweddings.com/As you can see the blue button is overlapping the text background (at least in Chrome and Firefox). It looks normal in Safari.
Thanks!
Hey althaua, you just need to add this into your Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel to assist with the header transparent BG mod you have:
@media only screen and (min-width: 1000px) {
.swiper-slide .content h2 {
line-height: 100px!important;
}
}
Cheers!
Thanks!
You’re welcome 
I’m getting some padding on either side of the nectar slider in BOXED mode… Only since I’ve updated to the latest version of the theme today. Can’t see any particular CSS that’s causing it … is it something wrong with my image size? They are 1600px wide…
http://tcc-staging.com/client4/Hey SeanAUS120,
that’s odd but enter this into the Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel to sort it 
.nectar-slider-wrap[data-full-width="boxed-full-width"] {
margin: 0 -57px !important;
}
Cheers
Hi, The latest WordPress 3.9 update on tinyMCE affected the visual editor of this theme specifically the “Text Block with WYSIWYG”. I hope you’ll be able to release an update to fix this problem.
Thanks
Hey bizhoop,
Salient v4.0.3 was released shortly after WP 3.9 went live and corrects this issue 
Hi,
Thanks for all the help with my previous comments, it is really appreciated.
Am I able to include a LinkedIn share button on blog posts?
KR, HWA
Hey HWA,
unfortunately this wouldn’t be possible without some custom development however you can also use a plugin for social buttons and deactivate the built in theme ones if you desire 
Hi, thanks for the reply.
OK, if I wanted to position the social buttons in exactly the same place would I need to edit one of the PHP template files? I’m not sure I can access the far right of the blog post title element from the CMS.
Kind Regards,
HWA.
Yes, you’d need to edit the single.php file located in the root of the theme directory 
Hi, really great theme! Assuming that they are based on the same codebase, why are the Home Slider and Nectar Slider on separate settings pages with slightly different options? Is there a design decision that I’m missing? Or perhaps historical reasons?
Thanks cperrone! They are actually based on completely different slider frameworks – the Home Slider is really only around for legacy users and for new users who like the look better 
Ah ok, that explains it! Nectar Slider is just great for any page really, so I’m happy to use just that and I’ll simply ignore the home slider. Great to see some level of integration with Revolution Slider too, although you spoiled us with the toolbar transparency and parallax effect of Nectar Slider. Really, really awesome work. Looking forward for your next updates 
Thanks a lot cperrone! 
Parallax isn’t working on Nectar Slider. Attempted to correct it in many different ways, and it doesn’t work on any page. Slide Image is just unresponsive. How do I fix this?
Hello jonellsworthre! Are you using the boxed layout? The parallax effect is disabled for this as the demo shows because it can cause issues on some browsers (because it’s a fixed element being contained). If that’s not the case I’ll need your URL to see what’s up.
Cheers
Its on the full width layout. URL is currently “flagshipp.com”
if(navigator.userAgent.indexOf('Safari') != -1 && navigator.userAgent.indexOf('Chrome') == -1) { return false; }
Awesome, thank you
You’re welcome 
Hi!
Im trying to use early access google fonts. Iv tried several methods to put the @import url(http://fonts.googleapis.com/earlyaccess/nanumgothic.css); into header.php , but it doesnt get me anywhere. iv also used the snippet to change font familiy in custom css.
Any help appriciated.

Hey Etemmu! Could you supply a URL so I can see if the font is getting loaded properly? (I assume you still have it in your header.php correct?)
I tried to send you a private message about this issue, i cant open the page due to clients request. But the problem persists. If I add @import url(http://fonts.googleapis.com/earlyaccess/nanumgothic.css); into the header.php the snippet it self actually shows on top left corner when I view the page in boxed mode.

I solved this issue… can’t put that in header.
Good to hear Etemmu 
Cheers!
PS – would you provide a “Forgot password/ resend password” page to you theme in next release?b
Hey again,
WordPress automatically has a forgot password page built into the core – it’s not something a theme would need to add. You can get to it by adding /my-account/lost-password/ onto your URL – if that’s not working you might have a permalink/plugin conflict.
Cheers
Thanks – just FYI – I disabled WooCommerce-plug-in (which I had never used or manipulated) and it worked :0)
WooCommerce adds a page /my-account which could have hijacked the permalink 
Glad you sorted it!
Pls be advised that I get no update info about a version 4+. Im still on version 3.9, and the hover-colour (accent colour) is not working on your theme :0(
Hey Peter, there is no Salient version 3.9 I believe you’re referring to the WordPress version you’re using. Also if you want to get email notifications when updates are released you need to check the box for “Get notified by email if this item is updated” in your downloads page on ThemeForest.
What element are you having an issue with the accent color? (There’s no known issues with that) Supplying a URL would be helpful 
www.kommunekommunikation.dk – the logo and text-colour screws up. The accent colour is no longer working.
I’m seeing that you have a custom header color scheme active in your header options with those colors selected – if that’s not the case it would be best at this point to allow me to log in to see what’s going on 
Hi there. Yes, this is not true. I have no custom header colour at all… you are welcome to log in. How can I send you credentials securely?
You can post a private ticket here: http://themenectar.ticksy.com/
just let me know the ticket ID here once you’ve done so

Thanks!
Sorry I thought I had sent the number… Here you go. #200645
Thanks, I’ll check that out now 
Hi… I’m having a weird blank section issue.
If I create a page, then add via the visual composer a blog section, enter options and publish, I see the blog posts fine.
If however I try the same thing using a portfolio page, I can’t see the blog posts (using the exact same code). The weird thing is the code is there in the front end, as if you move the mouse around you can click on links etc. you just can’t see anything.
Cheers…
Hey thinklikeme,
the blog element wasn’t meant to be used in a single project/post page – you can safely use a recent posts/projects element though. However this restriction will most likely be lifted in future releases 
Cheers
Hi. That makes sense, thanks. Will try a different way… and on trying a different way I had another query:
When I set the portfolio element to open an image up in a modal window, that all works fine but there is no obvious way to close the window (the only way I’ve found is to use the escape key)
Seems like the modal window is getting cropped top and bottom.
Any thoughts?
Cheers…
Can you share your URL so I can take a look at why this may be?
Cheers 
Sure. Our development URL is here: http://instinct.weloveapes.com/work/savse-smoothies/
If you scroll down the page a little the modals should pop out of the coverage thumbs…
Cheers.
Hey again!
It seems the issue is coming from a plugin that is also loading the prettybox plugin – can you attempt to check for a plugin conflict by deactivating your active plugins?
Cheers
Love this theme!
Do you happen to have a psd once i purchased this theme? 
Thanks tryxe 
Unfortunately there’s no PSD’s included because there’s no images used in the design elements. If you needed a PSD for mocking up, a screenshot would be almost as useful.
I’ve encountered a problem with the visual composer, when i add a text block I’m unable to see the text, like its invisible. i could type, and nothing shows till you come out from it. the only way i could see what i type is if i use the classic editor ( it doesn’t give me good idea of what i want or how i’d like it to look)
Hey Juniormc, you need to update to Salient v4.0.3 – that’s the only version compatible with WP 3.9.
Cheers 
I downloaded the new one … I had to reset my database and all coz of some issue.
Actually I don’t think I did … Lol sorry about that will try again, if the same thing happens will let you know
No worries – let me know if that doesn’t clear it up 
Hiya!
Can someone please point me in the right direction on how to update the theme?
I’ve downloaded the theme again from Themeforst, gone to:
Appearance > Themes > Upload Theme > (Salient.Zip) however got this error:
“Unpacking the package…
Installing the theme…
Destination folder already exists. /home2/andylame/public_html/andypluslam.com.au/wp-content/themes/salient/
Theme install failed.”
I just need to do the update to fix up the little logo duplication in the header.
Hey Andy!
You just need to delete the current version you have of theme before uploading the new 
Having some issues with loading the Frostwave XML typography settings. Can someone let me know the Google font for the Nectar Slider and the font sizes and settings in general. I reloaded the XML file and it’s just the same typography settings. I figured it out before but it’s not working again. Thank you.
Hey acmediaservices! The XML dummy data file doesn’t import the theme options – the other file located in the dummy data folder is for that (you paste the contents of it into the import tab of the theme options). For whatever reason if you can’t get it the font is called “lovelo” and it’s at 100px 
Cheers
On my portfolios, I’d like the functionality to be able to share the photos to Facebook, Twitter, or Pintrest that are being presented in prettyphoto with a button of some sort. Is there some way to do this?
Hey magnifyvalor,
unfortunately there’s no easy way to place the share buttons in a lightbox without some custom development – they can only be used on actual pages
Cheers
Thanks anyway, amazing theme 
You’re welcome 
Hi,
your theme looks fantastic. But before i purchase it i have few important questions : Because i’m new in WP, maybe the answer will be obvious :
With the portfolio style masonry, is it possible to enlarge images without going to a new page ? (like it’s possible with “simple” gallery) Same question for videos. As well do you have embedded vimeo ?
thanks
Thanks gdeschaud!
1. Yes you can turn any portfolio into a gallery only without the single project page 
2. You can embed a vimeo video wherever you need but it can’t be the thumbnail of a project in the portfolio grid if that’ what you’re wondering.
Cheers 
What a nice job you have done, anticipating all our needs. Sorry to be asking trivia questions, but I’m still new at this.
For anyone reading this link- Once you enable activation you have a series of Animation options available…
THanks again.
Thanks SteveZL! I’m slightly confused at your question – did you end up figuring it out and editing in the answer or are you querying about the animation options in some way?
Cheers 
I’m experiencing a strange bug with the transparent header when viewing my site on an iPad.
The transparency is working as intended to start out with. I scroll down the page and the header becomes solid white (as intended) but the problem happens when I scroll back up to the top the header becomes large again but the transparent background turns GREY instead of back to transparent.
Is this a known bug? I can’t find any discussions on this matter.
Hey seanleeoliver! Mind if I grab your URL to test out really quick?
sure
www.seanleeoliver.com
I can see it occurring too on my iPad mini – i’ve noted to test for this and see if it’s a theme bug or mobile browser bug. Thanks for noting 
Ok cool. Just thought it was strange. Glad I could help.
Indeed, thanks
