Hi, enjoy your theme.
In the blog page, the Love it and Share icons next to the blog title are not aligned correctly when we view the page. Why is this the case? You can see it at : http://eugenegallery.com/?p=1395
We resolved the error.
To fix a different title issue, per another comment in the discussion, we had the following custom CSS in Sailent:
.row .col.section-title span { display: block!important; }
This apparently changed the title block which squished the icons to the end. Commenting this out resolved the icons, so it is not a Salient Theme issue but a compatibility issue with another fix.
Thank and again wonderful theme.
Hey eugeneart, glad to hear you sorted it!
Thanks for posting the explanation 
Cheers
Hi, How come my footer isn’t in 4 columns? I’ve set the settings under salient/footer options/4 columns. see site here… http://thecravebar.com
Anything I can do? Thanks!
Hey PairDesigners!
I’m seeing some stray HTML between the columns – this could be from one of your text widgets. If you want to text this is the case, drag your current text widgets into the inactive section and see if it goes back to 4 columns

Hi, I modified my functions.php file and it caused a php error which crashed my entire site. Unfortunately, I did not save an unmodified version. So I downloaded the latest Salient theme and copied the functions.php file from it, overwriting my modified file. The site is back to normal but my Nectar theme is not working.
I tried recreating the Nectar slides to no avail.
The site is modulemaster.com. Any suggestions?
Thanks, Will
Solved the problem. I had downloaded the Salient theme from my Envato account, but the functions.php file wasn’t compatible with my Nectar slider.
Hey Will! Glad to hear you found the issue
Cheers
I’m having some issues with the Visual Editor when using Visual Compsoer since the latest updates. No text/rich text editor showing up in the Visual Editor tab, only red dotted lines where the text would be.
Currently running Salient V 4.0.2 and WPBakery Visual Compers 4.1.1 Please help, it’s making it slow going building out the site.
Thanks for your time.
Hey shoutoutstudio,
Salient v4.0.3 is the only version compatible with WordPress 3.9 (it was released the same day as the new WP version) Please update to get the fixes
Cheers!
My apologies. I overlooked that there was a 4.0.3 Thanks for the quick response!
No worries
Cheers!
Hey, Google just noticed that the “Analytics Code found outside of <head> tag”. Is there a quick fix for this issue?
Cheers
Hey sean7787, All of the scripts in Salient are loaded in the footer instead of the header for faster page loading – this should not interfere with the analytics script working in anyway.
Thanks for the help so far. Got another question, for the cart page I can’t get the buttons to align properly, especially on smaller responsive layouts ( the cart and checkout buttons touch, for example) I noticed this behavior is the same on the salient demo page. Is there a fix for this? Thanks!
Hey lovelyjunkie,
Add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel to alter the mobile layout:
@media only screen and (max-width: 690px) {
.woocommerce .actions .button {
width: 100%!important;
margin-top: 5px!important;
}
}
Cheers
Hi, are there any print css styles set on this theme anywhere? Where would I need to look to find where I can make print style changes? Thank you.
Hey LiskaD,
there is not a specific print stylesheet but you can enqueue your own via a child theme if you want to
The process would be the same as listed here
Cheers
Hello!
I believe this is a bug.
The header text does not center vertically properly on the contact template page. Please see attached image link. The header works fine on all of my other pages except this one.
http://imgur.com/0iBCl1VHey orcawest!
I would try changing the page to the default layout in the page attributes box and using the Visual Composer map element instead this should solve that issue
Cheers
Works! Thanks!
You’re welcome
Hello. I wanted to have a custom font in my wordpress site. I uploaded it to my server and I added it in this format to the css stylesheet:
@font-face { font-family: ‘Fontname’; src: url(‘css/fonts/Custom Fonts/Fontname.otf’) format(‘truetype’), font-weight: normal; font-style: normal;
} But i feel a bit lost about the next step. Could you help me wiht this?
Hey estebanpeiro,
you will now need to simply set the font active on your desired elements – can you let me know where you intended to use the font so I can assist?
I wanted it to be in every element: headers, paragraphs, etc. How can I set i active?
Hey – try adding this rule:
html body, html body p , html body * {
font-family: ‘Fontname’!important;
}
Should i add it just like that in any part of the stylesheet? Should i notice the change of the font after doing this?
You’ll add that after the @font face rules you added to declare the font – and yes as long as the name matches up with the font family you defined it should work. If it’s not please allow me to see your URL
I added that rule and it didnt work. I thought I might have put something wrong and wanted to star over, so i went back to the original stylesheet, but now the font has completely changed (is neither the original one nor the one i wanted) and all of the icons have disappeared. Would you know what might be happening? Could you help me with this? Thanks
Hey again estebanpeiro!
I would need to check your URL in order to see what’s causing that issue – can you share it with me?
Cheers

Hi, When I add an item to my cart, a bag icon appears in header, But after that when go to details page of any products, bag icon doesnt appear! how can i fix that?
Thanks
Hey hamed_afk!
It should remain active on the products details page as well – can you lend me your URL so I can check this behavior out?
Cheers
I cannot use Salient, all „Upload” buttons don’t work. I cannot upload logo or any image (it seems like an error with javascript). I need quick help.
Hey sylwiaszmalec, please open a private ticket on the support forum with your credentials so I can log in and see what’s going on
Cheers
Lets say IF I wanted to use the portfolio in a few other ways than intended – could I then dublicate the portfolio folder?
Lets say I wanted to make a private CV:
1. I would like one portfolio for classes I have taken at university (and degrees and such)
2. I would like one portfolio for past work eksperience
3. I would like one portfolio with skills
Could I create 3 different portfolio pages and set some category attributes to only display selected areas?
Does this make sense to you?
Hey again Peter,
You could assign each of your portfolio items to a different category named accordingly e.g. “skills”, “past experience” etc and then create a different page to display each set of items. You can then choose that some items or portfolio pages be password protected if needed
Cheers
Hi. I tried what you suggested. But I would have 3 different categories/ subjects I want to achieve: Recent projects/portfolio, Work experience, Education. 3 Categories in all. However, I will need a list of attributes which you also offer. (eg. graphic design, webdvelopment etc. But I cannot choose from that in your template. It would be so cool if you could also add the attributes to your theme.
Thanks
Thanks for the suggestion – I’ll note it on the wishlist
Cheers
Hello, first of all wanted to congratulate you on the template, it’s really good. I have a problem with the latest updates, if I activate the retina logo, when you scroll to me twice in the head. Right now I have it removed. Know anything about it?, Thanks.
Thanks Ar3D
Yes, this was an issue of WP 3.9 that Salient 4.0.3 fixed (it was released the same day as WP 3.9)
Cheers!
Thank you! I did not realize that update.
You’re very welcome
Just me again Nectar, I was wondering if you could take a look at the following test site: http://visitbiggar.users38.interdns.co.uk/ I cannot work out why the main nav seems to be centered on the grid not aligned right?
Forgot to say, finding shortcodes not working as well (both your ones and third party) – panel behind wp editor screen
Any advice?
Thanks again
Hey again!
1. Your menu is simply running out of room on smaller screens- add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel to sort that:
@media only screen and (min-width: 1000px) and (max-width: 1330px) {
header#top nav > ul > li > a {
font-size: 12px!important;
padding-left: 6px!important;
padding-right: 6px!important;
}
}
2. Do you mean the button to open the shortcode generator is not working itself or the shortcodes are not working when added to the editor?
Cheers
Thanks so much Nectar -will try that – weird as I’m viewing/working up theme on a 27” mac.
Regarding shortcodes – what happens is that I see the nectar shortcodes and supreme shortcodes add button, however when selecting the button (blue) the panel that normally pops up in front of the wp editor in order to choose the required shortcode is actually floating behind the wp editor panel – as a result I’m unable to select a shortcode – can email screengrab if required
Thanks so much for getting back to me
D
Nectar – tried the CSS however to me it still appears to be over to the right more – sorry
My bad! I thought you were referring to the issue that arises when you’re viewing the site on a small screen. The snippet I provided is still a valid fix for that, but now I can see what you were initially referring to.
1. The reason for the menu being unaligned in general is the bootstrap framework you or one of your plugins is including. Attempt to disable your plugins to see which one is doing it for the fix.
2. Please also see if it’s another plugin conflict causing the shortcode generator window to display incorrectly and let me know
Cheers
Nectar, I’ll take a gander at the installed plugins and keep you posted. Thanks again
You’re welcome!
Hey Nectar!
The latest update is working great, thanks for that!
Quick question, do you have a snippet I can use to remove the bottom borders on sidebar links?
Hope you had a great holiday
Hey TwoSolid
#sidebar div ul li {
border-bottom: 0!important;
}

I hope you enjoyed the holiday as well!
Cheers
Hello ThemeNectar,
As you might remember you donate the theme to BBHRF, and it’s just great. However, recently I noticed that the text editor doesn’t work…
I’ve added a screenshot below, as you may notice the text is white which is why I’ve highlighted it.
http://i.gyazo.com/84553782d21091095bd3c9383268e3ed.pngKacper
I saw the change log, and it describes my situation. White text in editor and double logo.
Can you help with the theme update?
Hey kacper99, yes WP 3.9 brought about this but Salient v4.0.3 fixed it as you know – can you shoot me another email at themenectar@gmail.com so I can get you the updated release?
Cheers
From what i see you keep giving support in themeforest, while my ticket (#198112) is waiting for a response for 3 days now.
Nice theme, but you should improve your ticket response speed.
Thanks inje,
no support staff are working this weekend and while it’s a Holiday, I’m still doing my best to handle both places on my own – but as you may expect, there’s a lot more tickets than comments so the queue is longer there. Thanks for your patience
Hi there, love the work carried out on this theme. Apologies for contacting you over the Easter weekend.
As per Moiety above I was wondering if there’s a way to upgrade your version of VC to run the various add-ons I’ve purchased through code canyon to run with VC
Thanks for your time
Darron
Hey Darron, I hope you had a great Holiday weekend!
The VC in Salient should still allow for common VC addons, just not ones that require 4.0+ can you let me know which you’re having trouble with?
Also if you want to update your VC manually you’d have to remove the Salient version by commenting out some lines in the functions.php – note that if you do this you’ll lose all of Salients custom elements too. Just let me know if you need assistance with this
Cheers
Hey Nectar – thought so – it’s the waypoint vcv add on shortcode that is asking for VC version 4.0 min – I’ll leave as is – any thoughts on updating salients version?
Take care
The thing stopping me currently is the front end builder 4.0 brought, a lot of development would need to be done to get all of Salients custom elements to work with that – still sizing it up.
Cheers
very true Nectar – noticed a few add ons are still not playing nice with it!
indeed, hopefully it will all get sorted out soon
Thanks again
You’re welcome
Hi – Does Ultimate Addons for Visual Composer works with the visual composer delivered with this theme?
Hey Moiety, I haven’t tested with that plugin unfortunately
