hi,
I havee and other issue, I have problems with scale text, I set up the font for headings in the salient font menu, an it works well under the 1080px screen but over 1080 pxls they grow up, and I dont know how to fix it.
check the image https://www.dropbox.com/s/irgag3d5yk3w6sq/ERROR2.jpg or try here scaling over 1080px with this link http://www.themakingof.com.co/home/well is already the opposite situation, 
sorry, over 1080 its ok, but under 1080, grow up,
Hey lasperolas, I actually am not seeing this behavior on my end – it appears to scale normally, being the largest on large screens and progressively getting smaller when shrinking the window. Are you still having this issue?
yes its still the same. I try this in PC chrome, ist probably the browser?, it is probably about upgrade the wordpress to 3.9?
Can you let me know what you have the Nectar Slider heading set to in your typography options tab? If that’s set to what’d you expect please allow me to log in so I can see what’s going on

ok Im trying updating the salient theme to 4.0 I talk to you later whats going on, if I can’t set up the font I told you 
, thnx
Sounds good
Cheers!
Hi, I’ve transferred my salient wordpress design from one hosting service to another by exporting the database sql file and uploading it to the new site. Now When I go in to make edits, I’m not able to see text in the visual tab of a text block. Usually you see this kind of code in the “text” tab. But it’s showing in the visual tab. It’s making things harder to make changes now. See screenshot here… http://i.imgur.com/qPHcgpw.png
Have any ideas on how to fix this? site is live here… http://urbanworkstest.com
Hey LiskaD,
if your new setup in using WP 3.9 you’ll need to update to the latest Salient (v4.0.3) which is the only release that supports that WP version.
Cheers
Thanks for the advice. If I update to the latest theme version, will I lose the look of my site that was built with the old version? Also, how should I go about updating to the new site? Should I go to Appearances/Add New Theme and then done?
Hey again! You’re safe to update as long as you didn’t modify the core template files within the theme but it doesn’t sound like you have – and yes, just you can update as you stated from the admin dashboard, you’ll just have to delete the current theme version first before you’ll be allowed to upload the new
Cheers
Hi
I cant for the life of me work out how to create the 23 coloured boxes here:
http://themeforest.net/item/salient-responsive-multipurpose-theme/full_screen_preview/4363266“A Breeze To Build With” “Tutorials To Help” “Show Off In Style”
Please can you tell me which option I need to select.
Many thanks!
Hey martinkspencer!
I actually have a video tutorial just for that
Cheers
About the
fullscreen=”true” flexible_slider_height=”true” slider_height=”700”
Before trying all the combinations, I wanted to ask you if we need to setup the slider_height when you use flexible_slider_height=”true”
(I’m a little bit confused about how to combine flexible_slider_height and slider_height)
cheers Ramiro
Hey Ramiro!
The slider height set is going to be the height of the slider you desire when viewed at 1600px wide – scale your browser to around that size and set what you desire and the rest will scale from there no matter how big or small the screen gets
Cheers
Hi there,
is there a way to display both euros and pounds in the pricing table?
best,
Hey RepublicOfMusic! Right now that would take some modding to the pricing table shortcode as only one currency per set of pricing tables can be added. If you wanna dig in the code it’s located in the shortcode-processing.php file in the nectar/tinymce directory
Cheers
ok cool, thanks for letting me know, appreciate your time as always!
You’re very welcome
When can we expect for RTL support?
Hey mr_henry, most likely in the next release (about 2 weeks)
Hiya,
How do you manually increase the size of icons and change there colour without using the custom colours please?
R
Hey,
If you need to make custom sizes/colors for them outside of the accent color scheme it would be another situation where wrapping the icon in a div with a certain class and then targeting that specific icon through it to change the size/color would be the quickest solution.
Cheers
Could you give me a code example please
<span class="custom-icon">[icon color="Accent-Color" size="regular" image="icon-heart"]</span>
html body .custom-icon .icon-default-style[class^="icon-"] {
color: #27CFC3!important;
font-size: 64px !important;
}
Cheers
5* theme by the way!
Thanks!
Hey pixilpusher! Yes, you should be fine to use it – but if you’re planning on adding a full width slider it would be best to place it through a template file using the slider call function
<?php putRevSlider("slider1") ?>
Cheers
Hiya,
I’m currently targetting the following CSS and using fonts from Adobe Typekit, question how do I target just specific areas fo rspecific fonts, eg I want the Nectar title to be Proxima Nova, all other text to be Freight Text Pro ??
h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, h7 {
font-family: "Freight Text Pro",'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif!important;
}
p, em, div {
font-family: "Freight Text Pro",'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif!important;
}
body {
font-family: "Freight Text Pro",'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif!important;
font-weight: 500;
font-style: normal;
-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased
}
Hey,
here’s how to target the Nectar Slider heading to keep it apart from the rest you’re setting as Freight Pro:
body .swiper-slide .content h2 {
font-family: 'your-family'!important;
}
Cheers
Hi again,
Quick question: is it possible to increase the thickness of the coloured lines used to make up the interactive pie chart?
Hey camdenhowitt!
This would require modding the file /salient/wpbakery/js_composer/assets/js/jquery.vc_chart.js since the chart is drawn with javascript rather than css alone.
Cheers
Hi, Nectar! I have a problem that the zoom effect on a portfolio item doesn’t work – you can see it here: http://cms.globema.pl/com/solutions-2/ Do you know what may cause the problem?
Cheers!
Hey Globema! Have you already checked to make sure it’s not a plugin conflict?
Hello!
I instaled WPML, but i can’t switch on plugin, because it’s write: Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 67108864 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 491520 bytes)
I tried to set define(‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ‘256M’); in wp-config.php but it is not works…
Do you have any idea what is the problem?
Ty: Z
Hey penyigey! You were correct to set the memory limit higher in your config file, however it seems your server is actually capped and doesn’t allow to you increase it. I would get in touch with them so they can assist is raising it
Cheers
Are there any plans for another update soon?, really interested in seeing what you have up your sleeve next
Also hoping you will seriously consider my alternative blog
R
Hey Rich!
The next update will indeed be a featured based one – will probably be out in 1-2 weeks
Is there any way I can turn off the audio for Nectar Video Slider? (or user can control?)
Hey cormanemarketing! Search for this in the functions.php
<video class="slider-video" width="1800" height="700" preload="auto" loop autoplay>';
and change it to:
<video class="slider-video" muted width="1800" height="700" preload="auto" loop autoplay>';
Cheers
Thanks for reply! It works!!
Also is it any possible if we have set video background and the Title/Caption can be slide ?
You’re welcome
Unfortunately changing the behavior of this on a per slide basis would require some custom development – right now it’s an all of nothing property.
1) can you add images in the menu like ubermenu does? 2) do you have demo content for the updated version?
Thanks.
Hey nancy1of1!
1. No, this would require custom development or indeed using ubermenu
2. The current dummy data sets can be found in your download package from Themeforest
Cheers
Hi again,
I am wondering if I am able to add a text background to a nectar slider subtitle.
Many of the images I use for the nectar slider are dark (which suits the light font option) however there are some sections of my image which are very bright and cancel the white text out. Am I able to add a black background to the slider caption text so that all the caption text is visible?
If you are unsure what I mean I can explain further.
Thanks in advance.
Also, since upgrading to wordpress 3.9 I cannot edit any text block properly. When I click the edit icon on any text block the visual tab is completely blank (white). Only when i select the text tab does the words show however this makes editing anything very difficult. I have no added any new plugins.
Why would this be happening? How can i fix?
Hey paul19!
1. You have the option to add a transparent black BG behind the caption text or to change the text to a darker color if needed: http://i.imgur.com/G2M2jo1.jpg
2. Salient v4.0.3 is the only release ready for WP3.9 – please update to get the fixes http://themenectar.com/changelogs/salient.html
Cheers
Legend, thanks mate.
You’re very welcome
I have support tickets open for over a day. I really need help, please help. Simple questions, no replies, not sure why?
Hey greenmeanie, tickets are responded to simply in the order in which they were opened (complexity doesn’t effect the wait) – However not all questions can be answered in under 24 depending on the current queue load, if you can give me your ticket #’s I’d be glad to take a look
please, still waiting over 2 days: http://themenectar.ticksy.com/ticket/202491
Hey again – just to note, we would’ve seen your ticket yesterday if you didn’t post 2 additional comments. As is states in the forum notice on the top “Please Note Before Posting: Every time you post a new comment before we have a chance to respond your tickets gets unintentionally bumped to the bottom of the queue since tickets on our end are sorted from oldest to newest in terms of last comment posted. If you have additional comments prior to us responding, please edit them into the initial post :)”

Ok so I’m curious. I am growing to love this theme the more I use it, but I was wondering if it’s possible to make the header transparent using a full_width_section?
Hey thomasmkl! Right now it would require some custom development but this is already on the wishlist as a future feature
Hey ThemeNectar,
Is there a way to hook in to change the “starting-logo”, when using the transparent header, on a per page basis?
The reason I’m asking is that some pages use dark slides/page header images and some pages don’t. This causes an issue with the header starting logo depending on what is underneath it (dark vs. light). If the logo gets modified to compensate for dark backgrounds the logo text becomes illegible on light backgrounds and vice versa.
I might just end up duplicating the header.php and modifying for specific pages but thought I would check if there were any other alternatives first.
Cheers!
Hey Syrehn! As of now changing this on a page by page basis would indeed require a conditional mod in the header.php – however i’ve noted this for the wishlist
Cheers
Hello, Some questions before I purchase. 1) I would like custom headers, custom backgrounds, custom menu backgrounds or transparent menus on a per page basis, is this possible? 2) I would like custom menus on a per page basis. Ie. on “home” assign menu1, on “shop” assign menu2, sticky menu assign menu3, etc. 3) I prefer to set google fonts, colors, sizes etc through admin panel. Is this possible? 4) do you have shortcodes to detect display type? I’ve worked with a theme that allowed you to do conditionals on displaytype. eg., if mobile don’t display enclosed content like [display not mobile]CONTENT[/display] 5) can you adjust header/menu/content/footer/widget styles through admin panel? 6) do you have a screenshot of the admin panel so we can see what is customizable?
thanks!
Hey eco_emilio,
1. Yes to all except custom menu BG’s on a page by page basis would require custom css.
2. This would also require some custom development or the use of a plugin to handle the logic
3. You have control over the font families, sizing, letter spacing, transforms and subsets through the admin panel but coloring would need css.
4. Unfortunately no, this would require media queries – however there might be a plugin for that functionality you could grab.
5. Yes
6. There’s too many tabs in the theme options panel to link them all but if you check out the video tutorials I show the options panel in a few https://www.youtube.com/user/ThemeNectar
Cheers!
