Sorry, the page crashes too, using Safari. The old these resolves the issue. It could have been something I’ve done, perhaps? Sorry to be a nuisance. Thanks, Russ

Hey Russ! The css you’re referring to is the same css (the dynamic theme styles) that have always been in Salient, however in 4.0+ they’re now minified to save as much space as possible/load faster – anyway you can update back to 4.0 so I can see the crashing issue? I can’t replicate this via the demo or locally on Safari.

Cheers

Thanks mate, you’re a legend. I’m installing 4.0 again now, will have it up in 5 mins. You’re right about the css, sorry I’m a tech idiot

Hi again, I’ve just reinstalled 4.0 for you to review. It’s now live for inspection.

It has crashed multiple times today on both my iPhone and Mac. Took forever to load, then crashed. I have tried numerous times reinstalling 4.0, but still the same issue.

Thank you so much for your assistance – 4.0 looks so much cleaner. I hope you can help me to get it working correctly. I’m lost.

Thanks again, sincerely!

Kind regards, Russ

Hi,

It just crashed again upon reinstall. To try to assist, a snippet of the Error Code Safari gave was:

I hope this helps…

Thanks, Russ

Hey,

each slider offers the option to add a class to it which you could use to target it specifically

 .swiper-slide.your-custom-class .content h2 { font-family: "Futura PT",'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif!important; font-weight:600 !important; font-size: 50px; text-transform:uppercase!important; letter-spacing: .1em!important; line-height: 330px!important;}

ok added this:

.swiper-slide.services .content h2 { font-family: "Futura PT",'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif!important; font-weight:600 !important; font-size: 30px; text-transform:uppercase!important; letter-spacing: .1em!important; line-height: 330px!important;}

And then added:

swiper-slide.services

All you would need to add into the extra class for the slide would be

services

hmm odd, done that not doing anything?

I just logged in and actually added the class to the home page slide (there was nothing inputted for that slide) and now the work is applying, but it appears your font choices are not loading (“Futura PT”,’Helvetica Neue’) and it’s defaulting to arial for me, make sure you have those webfonts included in one way or another

Hiya, It’s not the home page slide bud, it’s the services slide titled ‘IT’S ABOUT A STORY’ the class of services was added in there, and it’s not doing anything for me at all.

I have added these 3 lines into custom css

.swiper-slide.home .content h2 { font-family: "Futura PT",'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif!important; font-weight:600 !important; font-size: 80px; text-transform:uppercase!important; letter-spacing: .1em!important; line-height: 330px!important;}

.swiper-slide.services .content h2 { font-family: "Futura PT",'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif!important; font-weight:600 !important; font-size: 20px; text-transform:uppercase!important; letter-spacing: .1em!important; line-height: 330px!important;}

.swiper-slide.work .content h2 { font-family: "Futura PT",'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif!important; font-weight:600 !important; font-size: 20px; text-transform:none!important; letter-spacing: .1em!important; line-height: 330px!important;}

And added, home, work, services etc in the extra class box in each slider, but it’s not doing anything for me – I must be doing something wrong – Sorry

Hey Rich,

you’d have to add the image into the caption field on the slider and give it a class so you could center it and control the positioning specifically with css if needed

Morning, ok well I already have a caption does that matter?

something like this in the nectar caption box is showing up, but it appears above the buttons I have on the page, and is floating I need it to be flush at the bottom of the slider.

<img class="line" src="http://www.webteam.cornwall.nhs.uk/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/line_ee.svg" alt="line_ee" width="5" height="200" />

If it needs to be flush at the bottom it unfortunately won’t work via the caption field – you could get it below the buttons by setting it to position absolute, but to get it to work exactly your example site it would need to be added outside the normal slider content container so it could attach itself to the bottom of the actual slide. This would require a mod to the functions.php where the slide gets processed. I would consider just adding that line into the actual BG image itself as a work around

If I add it as part of the BK image won’t that look awful when the site stretches?

interestingly position-absolute does push it to the bottom but arranges it left ?? Could you just take a quick look? http://www.webteam.cornwall.nhs.uk/services/

Likewise I may want to add an image to the top of a full width section as well, for instance I want a reverse line at the top of the section titled ‘On both Mobile & Desktop’ how would I go about this please?

Change your css snippet to this

.line {
    box-sizing: content-box !important
    -webkit-box-sizing: content-box !important
    -moz-box-sizing: content-box !important;
    margin-left: -90px !important;
    padding-left: 50% !important;
    position: absolute !important;
    text-align: center !important;
}

How about not using the nectar slider could I add a large header image with headline, subhead line and line a different way

Yes, it would a lot easier through a standard row with the full width BG type, however you wouldn’t get the transparent nav if you wen that route

BTW The code snippet above makes the line disappear completely ?

Whoops – it’s just missing some semicolons

.line {
    box-sizing: content-box !important;
    -webkit-box-sizing: content-box !important;
    -moz-box-sizing: content-box !important;
    margin-left: -90px !important;
    padding-left: 50% !important;
    position: absolute !important;
    text-align: center !important;
}

also, it seems that when using the visual page builder, the captions of posts are read, check out the first post here – http://www.republicofmusic.com/blog/

Hey RepublicOfMusic,

1. There’s no option to do these items by default but add this into the Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel to sort it:

.single-post #sidebar {
  display: none!important;
}
.single-post #post-area {
  width: 100%!important;
  margin-right: 0!important;
  padding-right: 0!important;
}

.single-post .post-featured-img {
  display: none!important;
}

2. If you’re going to use VC, it would be best to turn off the auto excerpt option and simply use the more tag in your editor to define where the excerpt should go – this should allow the text to go through

Ok cool, ill try this, however, i think this problem has steamed from the fact i cant work out how to change the portfolio title colour, only the background, and by changing the background changes it for the whole theme on other pages,

would it be possible to tell me where i can change the portfolio title colour, and the portfolio title background only?

thank for your time,

best,

when i say portfolio title, i only mean within the post, example here – http://www.republicofmusic.com/releases/latest-releases-28-04-14/

Sure

 
.project-title {
  background-color: #000!important;
}

.project-title  h1, body #portfolio-nav a i, body #portfolio-nav a i {
  color: #fff!important;
}

perfect! working with this im nearly there! can i change the font of all the blog posts to white? and is it possible remove the heart icon, and the lines from each post? http://www.republicofmusic.com/out-now-ema-futures-void/

Hey 312Media! Thanks for helping out New_Castle

Dude you are like the most awesome theme developer and support guy ever, all I did was let the fella know what I did wrong. If it takes a little off your plate then i’m all for it.

Thanks so much! That means a lot

ThemeNecter, if you could help with Ticket: #199411 I would be very greatful. Its been a while and we havent been able to find a fix for this issue yet. Thanks in advance.

My friend

there is one more thing: the about page. It lost its responsiveness. What can be the reason for it? The text is wrongly placed, and the photos are not touching the edges of the screen.

There is one man working on one page of the site(on my custom template, css and the two pages), he is writing the custom code for it. Is this possible that the code interfeered with the setting for the “about page”?

Hi Theme Nectar

There is also a problem with the “text block” within the Visual composer elements. On the visual section of the text block, I see no text, and no edit options. What might be happening?

Thank you Martyna

Hi Hi

I have one more question. I hope you don’t mind. I am building a page on the same website, http://www.mmevelo.com/misja/ where the photos below the block of text need to be in two columns. the row with the photos should have more or less proportions of 1/6 + 2/6 + 2/6 + 1/6, where the photos are in the 2/6 parts. Close to each other, but with a small margin between.

I created this custom layout through Composer,

The question is, how to achieve this effect of two photos for a row, close to each other,(big photos, but on the page appearing small to fit 2/6 size, enlarged to its true size when a person clicks on them)?

Thank you so much Be well Martyna

Hey Martyna!

1. The helvetica listed in the font options won’t actually load the webfont but will usually default to sans serif unless helvetica is installed on the users PC – i’ve noted to change this to just “sans serif” in the next release to avoid confusion, if you want the true helvetica you would indeed need to purchase/include it separately.

2. I’m seeing the images being uploaded at 312×456 http://www.mmevelo.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/4-zl-312-na-456.png if you’ve changed the size in the functions.php – have you also used the regenerate thumbnails plugin to recreate the images?

3. I am actually seeing the images still touch the edges of the screen and appear to behave how I would expect them in regards to responsiveness – are you still having this issue? If so could you perhaps provide an image showing what you’re seeing?

4. The latest update (4.0.3) fixed this problem – it was an issue caused by WP 3.9

5. Anyway you could allow me to log in so I can check on this for you to see why the columns are stacking?

Cheers

Hey Theme Nectar

1. Thank you. We have changed it to Arial.

2. Yes, I have regenarted the thumbnails, but it still is like this.

3.I will send you the screenshoots through the support forum, ok?

4. Thank you

5. I will send you the login details through the support forum.

Best wishes Martyna
