How to add an extra social icon and textbox? I want to add my issuu-account to the theme. www.issuu.com

If you’re trying to add it into the footer/header with the others you’ll need to open those files and add a new list item into the social list – you could use an image or icon if you have the means to load a new icon file for that network into the styles to call

Hi! Thank you very much for the theme! It is really great and we enjoy working with it. Howerer all wordpress developers which we hired to work with the theme tend to harm some of it functionality. Do you offer any kind of customization work for additional payment? If yes we would greatly enjoy. You are the best!

Hey changellenge! Unfortunately I’m too busy with development/support to take on freelance gigs – but I’ve seen decent work from Envato studio (through mods that have been done to various buyer’s setups). Have you already tried some developers from there?

Cheers :)

Thank you very much! unfortunately I have not tried Envato studio yet! Do you have someone to recommend? Thank you in advance!

Sadly I don’t, but you can assure a certain level of quality since the developers have to be approved through Envato :)

My site portfolio posts appears twice, do you know whats the fix for this?

Hey secinc, check to make sure you don’t have the portfolio template assigned if you’re using a portfolio element ins visual composer or the shortcode on the same page.

Hi ThemeNectar,

Sorry for the long list of requests. By the way, you guys have been very helpful! Can you please help me with the follow requests below?

site is live here urbanworkstest.com

1. Tighten navigation leading on smartphones. Also, make carets white…see screenshot here for details….http://i.imgur.com/MlWCLMp.png

2 When in a project/portfolio page can I have my nav be highlighted to show which page they are on? See screenshot here… http://i.imgur.com/reldor3.jpg

3. Can we make the visited nav be bold instead of regular weight? See screenshot here… http://i.imgur.com/4lstrVg.png

4. This request, I would be very grateful if you cloud help out on. At this stage in my project I’m in need of some custom navigation. Can you take a look at my screenshot and see if this is possible? If so, what steps can I take to complete this? ... http://i.imgur.com/1rwfhY6.jpg

5. Can we bring up the names under team head shots? Also the leading needs to be tighter… http://i.imgur.com/f6mSaYw.png

6. On my site I’ve got a custom png caption, but If I wanted some functionally to go to the next slide that looks like this… http://i.imgur.com/KemTNo4.jpg, what kind of options do I have? I think the carets that is currently on the site now gets lost in dark areas. Can we change colors to the current carets to make them more visible?

7. Is there custom CSS I can add to make all hard breaks have less leading space? The breaks have to much space. See screenshot here… http://i.imgur.com/dJnYbq3.png

Hey! Somehow I’m not seeing that image getting cropped by more than 10-15 pixels on the sides – is that about the amount you’re seeing or is it more significant?

Yes, that’s about what we’re seeing. I know it’s not a lot, but we want to give our clients a definitive ratio for future uploads, with the guarantee that all of their image will be visible.

Hey again – try setting the sliders height to 756 instead of 765 :)

Hello!

I’m trying to remove the quotation marks in the testimonial carousel. I’ve searched the comments and saw this:

return '<blockquote><p>"'.$quote.'"</p>'. '<span>? '.$name.'</span></blockquote>'; }

and change it to this:

return '<blockquote><p>'.$quote.'</p>'. '<span>? '.$name.'</span></blockquote>';

Which I found in the new files, but it doesn’t seem to be working for me. Is it because of the change in the new updates?

Thanks for the help!

Hey wildefranz!

That’s correct – just make sure you’ve changed that in the correct location. If you’re using the page builder instead of raw shortcodes, the file to change is located at nectar/nectar-vc-addons/vc_templates/testimonbial.php

Cheers :)

I had to switch this echo '<blockquote><p>"'.$quote.'"</p>'. '<span>? '.$name.'</span></blockquote>'; to this: echo '<blockquote><p>'.$quote.'</p>'. '<span>'.$name.'</span></blockquote>'; On that file – but yes – that did it. Thank you!

You’re very welcome :)

Hi Theme Nectar

I have a question related to the custom layout in composer. I set 1/6 + 2/6 + 2/6 + 1/6 and put photos into both 2/6 parts. the 1/6 parts should remain empty space

but it does not work. I receive the photos one below the other have a look: http://www.mmevelo.com/misja/

I have the latest composer version from the newest Salient version

How to fix this? Thank you, Martyna

Hey Martyna! I wrote back to you on your ticket earlier in regards – and when using custom columns make sure to simply the fraction when possible (so enter the 2/6 into the custom layout as 1/3)

Cheers :)

aha, ok, I will :)

thanks :)

You’re welcome :)

¡hola!

How do I change the sidebar title color? I’ve got the paragraph text color in the sidebar figured out, but would like to change the sidebar title cover site wide.

Thanks Dude!

Hey canook! :)

Add this into the Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel:
#sidebar h4 {
  color: #77cc6d!important;
} 

Cheers!

Hello again! Is it possible to hide the featured image on blog posts? I know you can do it with portfolio single items – curious if it’s an easy change on blog posts too?

Thanks :)

Hey skucenski!

Add this into the Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel:
.single-post .post-featured-img { display: none!important; }

Cheers :)

Hi,

I’m having an issue where the images on the slider flash quickly to black after loading. This is happening on two pages. I’m using chrome on windows 7. Doesn’t seem to be an issue on IE surprisingly. Any chance you know what’s going on / how to fix?

Also – I’m gonna put in another request for a sticky footer that will work regardless of the amount of content :-) – I ended up using a plugin, but it’s been in a pain to make function correctly. I saw some comments that requested this in the past, hoping it will be a feature in a future update!

Thanks so much, and fantastic theme!

How about some simple css for the sticky footer: (add this into the Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel)

 #footer-outer {
  position: fixed!important;
  width: 100%!important;
  left: 0!important;
  bottom: 0!important;
}

worked perfectly – thank you!

You’re welcome :)

Hi, Great theme – thank you. Two questions:

1. Is there a way to loose the line that divides the header in the modern transparent theme from the slider?

2. Also, is there a way to hide the search functionality in the header outside of commenting it out in the theme code.

Thanks!!! Sean

Thanks Sean!

1. Yes, add this into the Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel:
html body #header-outer.transparent[data-transparent-header="true"] {
  border: none!important;
}

2. Yes: http://themenectar.ticksy.com/ticket/52594/search/

Cheers :)

Have you any plan on publishing a Salient user-login page (integrated login) in the future?

Hey again, right now that’s not on the wishlist because there’s so many plugins that can do that well and for free.

why after moving site to new server all salient options are on one site, i can’t change anything? plizzzz help me fast, my client is waiting…

i found out that link to js files looks strange ex. ”/wp-contentthemessalientnectaroptionsfields/add_remove/field_add_remove.js?ver=1399567313”, tell me why?

Hey slowix, that sounds like a server related issue – please see this in regards: http://themenectar.ticksy.com/ticket/178318/search/

Hello! Which file I have to modify for change the text: Notify me of follow-up comments by email. and Notify me of new posts by email. in the comment form blog ?

Thanks!

sorry! this is a text plugin :)

No worries :)

Help and suggestion: You did SUCH a fine job on making the Nectar-video slider so handsome and user friendly. But when adding video as background to a row there are no “look up” buttons, and you have to copy-paste the full URL.

Also there are no Align-functions on the background-videos, which is a shame.

PLUS – you provide an colour-overlay but I believe every one (myself included) would have liked an alpha-option as well.

Thanks again! I love your theme more and more every day!

Hey again!

1/2. Thanks for the suggestions :)

3. You can control the opacity of the color overlay like this for now:

.video-color-overlay {
  opacity: 0.9!important;
}

Cheers

and how about align?

This couldn’t be done without JS work since it’s simply not set up to accept the alignment conditional and css alone wouldn’t be able to handle it.

Hi there. No matter how I try, I cannot modify the size of the image. It displays the original uploaded size no matter if I use the WP edit function, or edit the code myself etc. http://kommunekommunikation.dk/kanalstrategi/ Is this a bug?

Hey Peter! The width/height are set to auto for images so that they can be responsive – if you need to upload fixed size small images give them a class of “fixed-size” like this:

<img src="" class="fixed-size" />

and then add this into the custom css box:

.fixed-size {
    width: 20px!important;
}

Ni Nectar. A few questions and requests please. 1) Is there any Drop Caps included in the theme? 2) Is there a way to have a sticky sidebar menu? 3) Would be nice to have a Page Subtitle added for the Portfolio pages instead of just a Page Title.4 ) Please consider a custom JS box, just like the custom CSS section. 5) You mentioned the page Scroller ID plugin, but it would be great to include side navigation element (bullets) on the page to scroll to certain sections. 6) Would be nice to have a side slide-out menu on mobile. 7) Is there a way to display pull quotes within a page? Thanks as always!!!

Hey Joe,

1. Unfortunately there’s no drop cap shortcode built in

2. Only in the portfolio right now.

3/5/6. Thanks for the suggestions!

4. It’s worth mentioning you could technically get away with adding JS into the Google analytics box – just make sure it’s in a script tag.

7. There’s only styling for a blockquote built in, but similar to the drop cap, you probably could find a plugin to add these and more

Cheers :)

I have a question:

As we can’t update the complete theme to the vewrsion from 17 th of April, and experience problems with the double logo and Composer, after updating Wordpress to 3.9

is this possible to update certain files/folders from the newest version of Theme Salient from the 15th, to remove those problems with Composer and double logo? and to update the entire theme next week?

if it is possible, which files should I update to the newest version from the 17th of April?

Thank you! Martyna

Hey again Martyna! It seems you’ve uploaded your logo at a very large size: 1279×629 try uploading it at a size that matches the height you’ve defined for the logo in your header options :)

Hey Theme Nectar

Thank you for your answer and help. best wishes Martyna

You’re very welcome :)

Hi, is it possible to put logo on top, and center menu underneath?

Awesome! The only one problem I can’t disable search icon in the menu.

Also logo disappears when transparent function is enabled, but it gets back as soon as you start scrolling.

Here’s how to disable the search: http://themenectar.ticksy.com/ticket/52594/search/

Can I see your URL for the logo issue though?

Cheers :)

Hi: Is it possible to control the color of the transparent nav text and the hover/selected state of the transparent nav? I’d like the selected page to appear blue and currently it is white.

Thank you!

Hey again! Use this into the Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel:
body #header-outer.transparent header#top nav > ul > li > a:hover, body #header-outer.transparent header#top nav .sf-menu > li.sfHover > a, #header-outer.transparent header#top nav .sf-menu > li.current_page_ancestor > a, body #header-outer.transparent header#top nav .sf-menu > li.current-menu-item > a, body  #header-outer.transparent header#top nav .sf-menu > li.current-menu-ancestor > a, body #header-outer.transparent header#top nav .sf-menu > li.current_page_item > a, body #header-outer.transparent header#top nav > ul > li > a:hover > .sf-sub-indicator > i, body #header-outer.transparent header#top nav > ul > li.sfHover > a i, body #header-outer.transparent header#top nav ul #search-btn a:hover span, body #header-outer.transparent header#top nav .sf-menu > li.current-menu-item > a i, body #header-outer.transparent header#top nav .sf-menu > li.current-menu-ancestor > a i {
   color: #0ebdf6!important;
}

Amazing! Thank you!!!

You’re welcome :)

Hi there, on your demo theme, you have these cool icons (like the one that is a diamond in a circle) and under the diamond, it says Award Winning Quality Accusantium quam, ultri eget tempor id, aliquam eget nibh et. Maecen aliquam, risus at semper ullamcorper

Where do you insert those elements? I can’t find a short code for that?

Thank you!

G

Hey mrpiano! That’s just a large icon element with a text underneath – the icon shortcode it the only one used and that specific icon is in the steady sets family: http://i.imgur.com/4dBFu9H.jpg :)

Thank you!

You’re welcome :)
