Hi! Thanks a lot for answering my question few days ago! I still have some.

1. Is there anyway that in the nectar slider with video BG after playing complete video can be stop instead of looping the entire footage? Maybe stop and show a Picture?

2. I want to use Trajan Pro font for the headings and body. Is there anyway to integrate these font as well?

3. In mobile i am having this problem in the Nectar Sliders http://nororimultimediadesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/Screenshot_2014-05-05-22-18-42.png The message goes to up, and its in the middle on the setting of the slider. And looks soo little it cant be really appreciated in mobile. how can i fix this!?

Thanks you :)

Hey JosephNorori!

1. Right now this would take some custom development but this is already a feature on the wishlist

2. For any custom fonts you’ll need to include them using standard font face rules – check out this tutorial in regards: http://zoerooney.com/blog/tutorials/installing-web-fonts-start-to-finish/

3. The text sizes scales down proportional to the rest of the slider to ensure no clipping on the image. This is also the same method of scaling as other premium sliders like Slider Rev/LayerSlider – if you want to change it you just need to look for these rules in the mobile viewport in the responsive.css stylesheet located in the css folder.

No matter what I try, the single image element is NOT centering. It’s between a divider(?) headline that’s centered with some words, and below is a text block which is centered. The image is selected “Alignment center” but it just does not get aligned.

An image further down the page, with the same settings, is also aligned.

https://www.getgenteel.com/how-it-works/ under “Stick Alternate Sites With Consistency”. Pretty obvious. Any solution??

Hey genteelllc,

You should be able to simply set the text alignment to center on the row holding your image to achieve this. If that doesn’t work, add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel:

.center img.img-with-animation {
    display: block!important;
}

Cheers :)

When I upload the theme via the uploader in Wordpress under Appearance -> Themes I get this error.

Unpacking the package…

Installing the theme…

The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet.

Theme install failed.

Hey mborgelt,

Please see this article in regards:

http://support.envato.com/index.php?/Knowledgebase/Article/View/269/0/my-wordpress-theme-isnt-working-what-should-i-do

and scroll to the “Common ‘Broken Theme’ and ‘Stylesheet Missing’ WordPress Issues” section :)

What is the custom CSS Class for the new Modern Creative nectar slider? I am looking to have my type big and centered like in the demo. Thanks!

Hey AmyNYC! There’s no css needed – you can simply select your font size to be larger like the demo (100px) in your typography options panel for the Nectar Slider Heading :)

I’d like to incorporate the Modern Creative styled top nav into my site. I like the bold all caps buttons. How can I accomplish this?

Thank you!

Hey AmyNYC!

Just head to the typography options and select “lovelo” for the navigation :)

Thank you!

You’re welcome :)

Hi,

Is there a way to automatically fit pictures full size in the masonry gallery? I thought this was how the theme would behave but it creates 4:3 thumbnails which is pretty damn useless :(

It gives the option between small, medium, large but I need the original aspect ratio!

Thanks!

Hey lapoune,

The only way to make an actual masonry gallery is through the portfolio and setting the portfolio element to lightbox only, which offers the sizes shown on the demo here: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient/portfolio-fullwidth-masonry/ The sizes to choose from are Regular, Wide, Tall, Wide & Tall – if you opt to not use those sizes (which are documented in the user guide) you can supply a custom thumbnail for each item instead of a featured image – no cropping will occur in that use case :)

Cheers!

Hi,

Is there issue with embed videos like youtube, with Firefox scrolling is not working at all when mouse cursor is on the video iframe?

Hey again,

You can add as much text as you like via the “Project Excerpt” field available in every project – but you’ll still need to supply an image for the BG if you don’t want a black box behind the text.

Cheers

Yes that was nice feature! Thank you! Is there any change that I can replace “black background” with different colors with classes for example?

Since there’s no built in way to add a class to the project thumb columns – you would only have your choice of selecting them by the category they’re assigned or coloring them all together with one color :)

Hi ThemeNectar,

Is there a way where I can get my heading/caption to align centered vertically on my Nectar Slider as seen on this page…http://i.imgur.com/h7tZzag.png ?

I’ve got the “Slide Content Alignment” set to left/center and it’s not where I want it. site is live here… urbanworkstest.com/patricia

Thank you

Hey! Add this into the custom css box:

.swiper-slide[data-x-pos="right"] .content {
    width: 70%!important;
}

thank you!

You’re welcome :)

Cant seem to implement the nectar slider – Create Slides and slider location, insert shortcode and nothing. It’s the same with the portfolio. Nothing changes to the site once the shortcode has been inserted

Hey lukecope,

since there’s no known issues like that I would need to take a peek at your setup to find out what the issue is. Please open a private ticket on http://themenectar.ticksy.com/ with your login credentials and let me know your ticket id :)

Cheers

Hi Nectar,

How do you change the color of the text in the box that is revealed when the toggle opens?

Thanks! Tony

Hey Tony!

Add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel :)

body .toggle > div {
  color: #000!important;
}

Cheers!

This may be a doll question… but there are a lot of different templates to chose from in the page property panel. But it does not make a difference which template I chose, when viewing the page…? What is it for then? (question).

Hey,

The templates are should effect the output of the page as they say – e.g. the portfolio template will add a portfolio to your page, the sidebar layout will add a sidebar to your page. If they’re not applying to your pages, I’ll probably need to log into your setup to take a look at what’s going on :)

Hi. Is there a way to add a page-sidebar? Like making a custom one for my own template?

I ended up using “widget on pages” which did exactly what I wanted. (I just didnt know then there was a plug in for it, sorry)

(and it was working 100% as intended)

Glad to hear :)

Cheers!

Love the look and feel of this theme, as well as how quickly it appears to load – considering using this theme for one of my upcoming project. Does this theme include a boxed content feature – a feature where one or more paragraphs of text is displayed in a shaded or colorized box?

Thanks oboston!

Yes, you can enable boxed columns or add a BG color to any normal column you need.

Cheers :)

Thanks for the follow-up. Purchasing a copy of Salient today!

You’re very welcome!

Cheers :)

Hi guys, i’ve seen you updated your demo and i really like it. I’ve two question for you.

Does it means you added something to the theme or something like that or it’s only a web change?

How can i do a full column color like you do in your demo? i mean here http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-frostwave/about/about-me-extended/ there is a 2/3 column red and a 1/3 cyan, ther’s a shortcode or it’s css?

Thank you very much.

Albe

i updated the theme and now it’s ok, well done.

However i’ve a question about column:

i’ve created a full width row with background image and a 1/2 column with opacity, now i’d like to set a height for that. I can set the height for the row but the column in opacity has it’s own. How can i set the column height to 100% to follow the full width section height?

Thanks

Hey albeandreetto!

There’s a bunch of new features that came with 4.0 – I simply created a new demo to show some of them off :)

In regards to your column questions, I believe this video tutorial will give the answers you’re looking for:

How can I transltae the ‘All’ word in portfolio bar?

I tried by change it in functions.php and template-portfolio.php on string (‘All’, NECTAR_THEME_NAME) after the translation via PO file didn’t work. What do to?

I used codestyling-localization plug in. It edit mo. po files so the string ‘All’ didn’t tranlated unless I changed it in shortcode-processing.php. Also I cant cahnge the slug of portfolio categories because it deasapear. I left it with the orginals names from the demo of the template. Why?

One more question: How can i revert it to rtl support the progress bars? Thanks

Hey again,

I’m guessing you didn’t name the .po according to what you have defined in the wp-config.php file as that’s the most common cause for translations not working.

In regards to the slug issue – i’ll need to log in to your setup to check on this. Can you open a ticket in regards? http://themenectar.ticksy.com/

As for RTL support – it’s coming in the next update so please sit tight :)

Is it possible to make the Nectar Slider responsive? Currently, if I view the slides on a cellphone, everything shrinks to much I can’t read anything.

Hey sildona,

the text sizes scales down proportional to the rest of the slider to ensure no clipping on the image. This is also the same method of scaling as other premium sliders like Slider Rev/LayerSlider – if you want to change it you just need to look for these rules in the mobile viewport in the responsive.css stylesheet located in the css folder.

Hello can you please tell me how to: - Remove the title of the product on both the shop page and the product page. - Disable the images on the product page from opening in lightbox, instead just replacing the current photo (Under woocommerce settings i currently have Enable Lightbox unticked)

Thank you

He turtleturtle!

1. Add this into the Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel:

 body.single-product div.product .product_title, .woocommerce ul.products li.product h3, .woocommerce-page ul.products li.product h3 {
  display: none!important;
}

2. If disable the lightbox (which will need to be done by removing a line in the init.js file) – there’s no functionality to have the image replace the main image on click, that would require custom development or the use of a plugin. By default if you disable the lightbox all that will happen when you click an image is it will open up in a new page (like a standard image link)

Cheers :)

Hi! I’m having trouble setting custom font colors on the blog page for some reason.. I’ve been able to do custom css for other pages of my site but seems this blog page won’t take anything! I’m trying to change the font color of the post title to #2B2B2B and date number to #dae500. Is this how blog pages behave? or am I missing something. Thanks! http://nelsontai.com/blog/

Hey!

1. It seems there’s already custom css setting these elements to custom colors – have you sorted this?

2. As of now there’s no way to use full width rows on the main blog overview page – but support for this may be coming soon :)

Thanks for always getting back so quick! Amazing theme and support :) I’m not sure why the custom css doesn’t work if I try to put it on the actual page (Pages > Blog > CSS). It worked when I put it in the overall css editor (Appearance > Edit CSS)

That’s weird indeed, but glad you got it working :)

Cheers

Hello!

Love this theme! I wondering… Is there is a way to have the mobile menu only appear on Phones and tablets? I switch back and forth between a 2550×1440 monitor and a 720p TV (Native 1024×786). The mobile menu is always present on the 720p television.

Thanks, I really love this theme and I love the support! Best investment I’ve ever made on Envato!

Thanks for the reply. I took a screenshot and the dimensions were 1024×729 on the smaller resolution screen (Cropped the start menu).

On the 2550×1440 monitor, the absolute smallest I could get a window without the mobile menu was around 1110 Pixels.

Is there something wrong? Or is there some code where I bring it to 900 pixels?

or is there indeed a way it only shows up on mobile devices?

All of the css media queries and JS logic is set to target 1000px and lower which is how the full menu displays on an iPad landscape – but if you want to try and lower it further to help in your case, search for all instances of 1000 inside of responsive.css (located in the css folder) and do the same inside of the init.js file (located in the js folder)

Cheers :)

Hey!

I am having trouble with the Contact 7 form. Is there someone from either your side of Contact 7 side who can jump on my site and take a look?

I’ve read all the documents but it’s no help!

Donation will of course be compensated for time :)

Andy.

Hey again Andy! Have you tried to switch to another theme to see if the form works?

Hiya!

What do you mean by switching to another theme? I don’t think the form is configured properly :(

Any chance i can get in touch with a dev or something? I’m happy to pay to get it fixed.

Just need it up and running as clients can’t contact me.

Cheerios,

Andy.

Hey!

Since contact form 7 is not a part of Salient itself – I was suggesting that you rule out the fact that it’s a theme problem by changing to say twenty fourteen for a minute to test. As far as setting up the form correctly – there’s not too much you have to do. As long as you have the correct email address in the mail meta box and correct fields in like this: http://i.imgur.com/F7G04Eb.jpg it should work assuming your server isn’t blocking outgoing mail.
