Hiya,
sorry 1 last thing I forgot to ask, how in mobile responsive mode (iPhone 5) do I target the height of the nectar slider please it’s 835px in normal mode but how does that translate to mobile or is there a mobile css rule I add of this per page please?
Cheers Rich
Hey Rich, you can actually use the minimum slider height option when the flexible slider height is active on your slider. 
Hiya bud, did that and it doesn’t seem to do anything still left with a 30px white gap at the bottom of the iPhone screen no matter what height I put in the minimum slider height box?
Which page contains the slider, I’ll take a look
just open the website www.webteam.cornwall.nhs.uk on a mobile (specifically iPhone 5) and you will see the cover doesn’t expand down the screen fully (gap at bottom)
Username to login is: ThemeNectar password is: traru2TA (above is just temp will need to delete asap)
I’m seeing that your min height is set to 300 – for what you’re going for I’d say to make it at least 500 but if your goal is to always have it fullscreen, just activate that option in the slider
Hi Bud, change it 500px but on mobile makes no different as the white 30px gap is still there at the bottom, I don’t want to make it full screen as that isn’t part of my design, can I not target the homepage id and nectar slider in mobile somehow to remove this gap?
I’ve just changed the min height to 500 and can now see the reason it’s not getting bigger is because of your custom css in the child theme:
body .nectar-slider-wrap, body .parallax_slider_outer {
height: 368px !important;
}
body .swiper-slide, body .swiper-wrapper, body .swiper-container {
height: 370px !important;
}
so sorry bud, didn’t realise I had that in there, so just change those 2 values then by an extra 30px and i’m good to go?
yes, or you could remove them or make use of the minimum slider height option instead of messing with the css
Any update on the update release?
Rich
It’s out now
Awesome yeah seen it downloaded and installed already :) some questions coming your way though :) – R
I updated Gravity Forms today and even though my styles are in the child theme I seem to have lost the responsive ness part of the form, e.g. I added this and now it doesn’t work.. any ideas please..
@media screen and (max-width: 800px) {
.gform_wrapper .top_label li.gfield.gf_left_third,
.gform_wrapper .top_label li.gfield.gf_middle_third,
.gform_wrapper .top_label li.gfield.gf_right_third {
float: none !important;
width: 100% !important;
}
}
The code you gave me before is stopping the 100% width in responsive mode on the input forms ? e.g.:
body .gform_wrapper li.gfield.gfield_error.gfield_contains_required {
padding: 0!important;
}
body .gform_wrapper .top_label li.gfield.gf_left_third, body .gform_wrapper .top_label li.gfield.gf_middle_third, body .gform_wrapper .top_label li.gfield.gf_right_third {
margin: 0 0 8px !important;
width: 33.3% !important;
}
body .gform_wrapper .top_label .gfield_error {
width: 100%;
}
Hey Rich,
Add this as well
@media screen and (max-width: 800px) {
html body .gform_wrapper .top_label li.gfield.gf_left_third, html body .gform_wrapper .top_label li.gfield.gf_middle_third, html body .gform_wrapper .top_label li.gfield.gf_right_third {
width: 100% !important;
}
}
Cheers
Tried this earlier and it didn’t seem to work, will try again though in case it was my syntax
Nope it was me your correct works great now with html in front of the media query – thanks bud
You’re welcome
Hiya bud,
Could you help me please get my homepage (the 3 icons) to be smaller in responsive mode eg on 1 line like how we did it with the logos towards the bottom http://www.webteam.cornwall.nhs.uk
Hey Rich,
@media only screen and (max-width: 690px) {
html body .main-content .custom-icon .icon-default-style[class^="icon-"] {
font-size: 42px !important;
}
body hr {
margin: 20px !important;
width: 8% !important;
}
}
Cheers!

FULL SCREEN LIGHTBOX / IMAGE SIZE
Hi there,
Why doesn’t the prettyPhoto lightbox select the biggest available picture size for large screens? On my 2560×1440 monitor, it currently selects pictures of 1024×682 – while my original portfolio pictures are actually 1500×1000 pixels. And it doesn’t even scale the smaller picture, but just shows a lot of black.
Little bit waste of space if you ask me 
Or check it out live – you still have my access to my staging server!
Hey! Can you link me to a specific portfolio item where this occurs? I took a quick glance at your items and only came across tall portrait images
sorry about that – i’ve just added another girl for you to check out
The image I’m seeing is uploaded at 1000×669 and displays that size in the lightbox – can you try uploading one at a larger size like you mentioned of 1500×1000?
Cheers!
[link removed]
oops sorry, my bad… i’ve added a new one to that gallery!
btw: would you mind to delete that url in your previous comment? trying to stay below the radar until launch
Just flagged it for removal – also i’ve found the issue, open the vc_gallery.php file located in nectar/nectar-vc-addons/vc_templates and replace lines 174 – 193 with this http://pastebin.com/4yP87A37
SUPER, it works! Although vc_gallery.php is rapidly becoming a familiar face to me, I could never have fixed this so quick myself Thanks a bunch, ThemeNectar
You’re very welcome!
Is there also a way to have it not “hang” so low but in the vertical center? Because this forces the lightbox to scale smaller than necessary.
Hey – that would require a mod to the prettyphoto.js file unfortunately as those are the default plugin calculations and css alone won’t help
all right, thanks for your answers!
You’re welcome
Hey there, your recent update 4.1.1 broke this thing again. I’ve re-added those lines, but could you please include your fix from above into the theme itself next time?
Thanks
Hey again – during my testing there were some sizes that would cause prettyphoto to act weird so I backed off on it for the time being – will note to look into it more though
Hi this issue seems still not fixed with your recent updates. I need to manually fix it over and over, because I can’t easily override this in my child theme. Could you please fix this with a minor update?
Hey again sorry for the delay on this one – as I mentioned last, when I removed the limit for the size sometimes it would cause display issues with prettyPhoto depending on the size of the image so I held off on implementing the change I gave you but will note to test further
Hello,
One question, can the top menu of squarespace can be done currently with your theme? This top menu integrates normal elements with an sliding door menu as a mobile menu at the same time.
Thanks
George
Hey George,
Not yet without custom development, but additional header/menu options are already on the wishlist
Cheers
hi,Nectar. i would be great if you could help me out!
i want to change the Share Button. like facebook, twitter. I want change the button to other Chinese social networking sites,because i couldn’t vist the facebook and twitter. So,please help me ,how to change the Share Buttons.
Hey huxing188,
If you wanted to add custom sharing buttons it would require custom development since each button needs Javascript to pop open the window/populate it with the current page content & query for the share count.
Cheers
thank you . and ….. can you tell, which file is about the sharing buttons in the theme files. please.
Hey – they’re generated in the single.php/single-portfolio.php files and the script for them lives in the init.js file located in the js folder
Cheers
Hi, I love the look of your theme and I’m considering buying it. A couple questions for you though:
- For the ‘Portfolio Fullscreen Slider’ are you limited to 3 images in a grouping? If not, how many? Also, what is the recommended image size for this?
- Is it possible to have a each portfolio thumbnail link to a ‘Fullscreen Slider’ that showcases that project with multiple images?
- For the various portfolio styles that use horizontally oriented preview/thumbnail images is it possible to change all to a different orientation and aspect ratio? (say if all of my images are vertical)
Thanks!
Hey LDiehl!
1. No, there’s no limit
2. Yes if you desired that it’s pretty straightforward (you’d just use the visual composer image gallery element in each project)
3. It would require changing the image size inside of the functions.php
Cheers
Is there a way to add a preview image for a video blog post without having to display the image in the actual post?
Basically a way for the post to have an image in the ‘Recent Posts’ widget, without having an image display in the post itself.
Hey Tom_Munz,
Anyway you can share your URL real quick so I can verify the setup to help?
Cheers
Http://tmunz.com – you’ll see a ‘Recent Posts’ widget area near the bottom of the home page, with one of the posts not having a preview image since it is a vimeo video.
Hey again – it seems you have not selected the post format “video”, once you switch to that your post should populate the video itself in that area where the featured image would go
I just gave that a shot, but no luck. I’m guessing it’s because it’s a Vimeo video in a Video Player element as opposed to the OGV/M4V formats inserted into the post. Is there a way to make it work with Vimeo/Video Player Element videos?
When you activate the video post format there’s a box titled “Embedded Code” – just paste your iframe code in there and remove it from the main editor
Ah that worked perfectly, thanks!
You’re welcome

http://trucbrush.com/Thanks,Manish.
Hey Manish,
I’ve just checked your site in IE, Firefox & Chrome and all seem to load the video in normally. The only issue I see is that it’ not sized correctly because you didn’t upload it at a 16:9 aspect ratio.
Cheers
Yes it is working fine .. Thanks To help me .. Thank,Manish.
You’re welcome
Hey anjumon06,

Which is the first slide you have and is needed for loading the slider in – please ensure that path is correct and the image exists on your server

Hello ThemeNectar!
I’m tweaking things again in the theme and I’ve come across a problem I don’t know how to solve. Our website has been using the full width option until now, and we want to change it to the boxed layout option at the moment. My problem is that all my nectar sliders that are not on top of the page either disappear or do not appear full size. example (scroll down)-> http://www.4ucontrol.com
Is there a way for the nectar sliders to appear full width? I mean, the width of the boxed layout.
Thanks!
Hey 4ucweb!
It appears you currently have the boxed option off – when you turn it back on I’d be glad to take a look
Cheers
hello! Yes, I turned it off because I couldn’t let the images that way through the night 
it’s boxed now!
Hey! Try adding this into the Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel:
body .nectar-slider-wrap[data-full-width="boxed-full-width"] {
margin: -68px -147px 0 !important;
}
hello and thanks! it worked for the home page, but not for all sliders in the other pages, for instance -> http://www.4ucontrol.com/apps/ what am I doing wrong? I’m sorry for bothering you so much, I’m a noob
Hey again!
My bad – change that snippet to: body .nectar-slider-wrap[data-full-width="boxed-full-width"] {
margin: 0 -197px !important;
}
perfect! you people are geniuses, thank you very much!! keep up the GREAT work
one happy customer!
You’re very welcome
Cheers!
Hey, would be great if you could help me out!
Is there a quick fix to disable the fraction expand out on the nectar slider buttons?
Basically don’t want the shape to grow like it currently does?
Thanks man!
A hover colour change would be cool though
Joe
Hey Joe,
to disable that open up the nectar-slider.js file, search for this: http://pastebin.com/FAW6fAgC and delete it
Cheers
Hi When viewing on IPad I’m getting a big gap between header menu and Nectar Slider, any ideas? juliettedoddrell.co.nz Thanks in advance
Hey j_doddrell! Can you kindly open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can log in and see what’s going on? Just let me know your ticket ID here once you’ve done so
Cheers
Thanks, ticket id is 217440. Also just wanted to say loving working with this theme
That’s great to hear! I’ll be with you as soon as I can
Cheers
Hi, I’ve seen you request to login How should I do this? Set you up as a user? What email should I use?
You can actually just provide your own user account but if you would prefer to make a new one, you can use any email since it’s only going to be a temporary login (just remember to set it as an admin for the access level)
Cheers
Hi Nectar.
Big ups for the theme (y). http://plotpoint.dk/
I used the Nectar slider as a Video-slider, but they rarely load proberly. It only loads 1 out of 5 times, otherwise it seems to be stuck. I’ve made both mp4 and webmhd in only 50-70mb a piece. Is there anything i can do to make it load proberly, stream and play within a second or something, without just making the file super low and pixilated?
I really like how the videoslider is fullscreen on all windows and parallaxes, so i dont see another plugin as a great alternative
I hope you can help.
Thanks plotpoint!
I use around 30MB videos for the demo actually, but if you’re coming in around 50MB I can’t see why that would be an issue for playback. I’ve gotten consistent results using Firefox on your site (loads in quickly and plays without stopping) On Chrome it might be getting stuck because it named .mov.mp4.mp4 – please try just making the extensions a single .mp4 or .webm
Cheers
Hey Nectar.
I suddently thought that would work too. I tried renaming them. I even tried rerendering them low quality and converting them, but I still get stuck with chrome. I used the Miro Video Converter to convert both mp4 and webm. Cant seem to figure it out or debug it.
Any suggestions?
Cheers
Hey again! It seems your webm was not converted properly as I can’t access it directly in Chrome http://plotpoint.dk/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/showreel2014.webm – please try running your mp4 through this http://video.online-convert.com/convert-to-webm
Dam. Did not work either. I testet some sample files and they work just fine. No converter makes my files supported for chrome so i guess i have to try rerendereing with some other codecs. If that dosent help ill figure something else out. Thank you for pointing it out that it must be the file. Thought some code could be the problem but now i know it cant be.
Cheers
You’re very welcome

Hey Folks,
i have a question regarding the detail pages of the portfolio items:
So when you set up some portfolio items, give them certain categories and call it’s fine when using the portfolio only one time in the entire web page.
But when i set up a second portfolio on a different page, different categories i stumble across one problem:
Every portfolio item gets a automatically generated detail page, so when clicking on “more details” of a portfolio item, you get on the detail page where you can select all other portfolio items. There is my problem, i don’t want that all portfolio detail pages are viewable, because they all are browsable when being on a detail page.
Sorry for my bad english, when you have more question i will answer them. Is there maybe a option i’m missing to seperate the detail pages somehow?
Many thanks in advance, as always very nice template
Best regards, Jorys
Hey Jorys!
You can use css to hide the arrows on the more details page (enter this into the Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel)
#portfolio-nav ul.controls { display: none!important; }
Or you can disable the details page all together by setting your portfolios as “lightbox only”
Cheers
Pre purchase question.
Is it possible to place the shopping cart item contents in the upper corner of the header?
Is it possible to place other cart items in the sidebar like product categories, popular items, etc. as in other woo commerce sites.
Thank you.
Hey othebeach,
1. There already in an AJAX shopping cart that appears when items are in the cart in Salient but if you needed to mod the output of it, some custom development would be required.
2. Yes, you’re free to use the WooCommerce widgets however you like
Cheers
Hey TN,
is it possible to remove the bottom border from the transparent header option? I tried to look into the editor but I cant find it. Also, I’ve noticed the nectar slider captions aren’t sharp when viewed in safari. know idea why?
Thanks
Hey neibohood,
1. 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. Fonts will render slightly different in each browser but I believe Safari is the worst of all if I’m not mistaken.
Cheers
How do I have a secondary header at the top as displayed in the demo with the country selection?
http://themenectar.com/demo/salient/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/2.pngI know WPML can do the multilanguage dropdown selection but not sure how do I actually have a selection for country such as Australia / US as we will have different pages for different country…
Hey largeserver,
That screenshot was indeed from WPML – inside of the plugins options there’s one for “What to include in the language switcher” and a checkbox for flag
Cheers
