FYI: Using your new awesome forced transparent header, provided with your new update, the map gets very small and pin-marker will hide behind the header. You only provided height-option in the manual insertable map, not in your std salient template…
http://kommunekommunikation.dk/om-os/kontakt-kommunekommunikation/Hey – for this use case the nectar map element would be more appropriate, but if you want to use the page template you can add this into the Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel:
#contact-map {
height: 600px!important;
}
Hello there, first of all, what a nice theme you’ve made! I was wondering if there is a way to hide the portfolio header, not the main header, but just the portfolio header with the project title and the arrows?
Hey nikobruggemans!
Add this into the Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel:
.project-title {
display: none!important;
}
Cheers
Thanks for the reply, but I actually want to remove the header from the portfolio single page like this page http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-frostwave/portfolio/geowolf-social/ with the menu, but without the ‘LOWPOLY SOCIAL’ and the arrows, is this possible? Thanks in advance!
Hey – add this in as well 
.single-portfolio #page-header-bg {
display: none !important;
}
Cheers
This worked fine, thank you! I was wondering if I can change the diagonal lines background of the nectar slider?
You’re welcome – use this
body .nectar-slider-loading {
background-image: url('your-img-src.png')!important;
}
FYI – I did some more testing on the load-issues and I am pretty much sure its a prob with your theme in Chrome. Both on PC and iOS. Sometimes the site finish loading still with more elements not loaded (and sometimes there is load error on the colour-overlay, frontpage (nectar slider) and other plug-ins. (I also put it in a ticket but cant find it).
Ok that was NOT only in Chrome. Just tested in Explorer and my Nectar-banner is not displaying. http://kommunekommunikation.dk/ – except from 2 pixes
Hey peter4576,
I’m not sure which loading issues you’re referring to – I can see the nectar slider not loading in, but when did this all start? Have you checked to see if it’s a plugin conflict?
Cheers
OK scarry. I disabeled all plug-ins, then activated them again and now it works. So now I know the trick if that happens again…
That’s super odd, but glad you’ve sorted it
I noticed that the “back to top” icon disappears on the mobile responsive version. Is there any way that to have that show up on the mobile device as well?
I feel comfortable editing the theme code. I noticed that the code is laid out in footer.php
<?php if(!empty($options[‘back-to-top’]) && $options[‘back-to-top’] == 1) { ?> <?php } ?>
Is there another function to add this for mobile as well?
Hey samueloh! Yes, this is disabled for mobile devices but you can enable it again in the init.js file – head to section #6 in that file to end up at the right place
Could you kindly let me know which piece of code in the init.js file needs to be changed? I’ve found section 6, but am unsure as to what or which values would need to be changed to have the scroll to top function show on an iphone or android device. I appreciate your quick response.
Change this:
//starting bind
if( $('#to-top').length > 0 && $(window).width() > 1020) {
if($scrollTop > 350){
$(window).bind('scroll',hideToTop);
}
else {
$(window).bind('scroll',showToTop);
}
}
to this:
//starting bind
if( $('#to-top').length > 0 ) {
if($scrollTop > 350){
$(window).bind('scroll',hideToTop);
}
else {
$(window).bind('scroll',showToTop);
}
}
Cheers
Thank you for your prompt response. I tried to change the code, but no change was made on mobile. Would you mind double checking the code? We have Salient 3.9 installed
body #to-top {
display: block!important;
}
Hi. Is there anywhere you show your new changes in last upload? Like Mouse Based Parallax Scene? From the info in the backend I dont really see the picture.
Hey peter4576, a video tutorial is coming for that soon but it’s just an option inside the visual composer row similar to the video background
Cheers

This is such a great theme, and it’s so refreshing to have so many great options and regular updates. Thanks for the excellent product!
One suggestion: I would absolutely LOVE to have the option to use a centered logo. Our logo is a circle, and so it’s rather tiny off to the left, but if we had the option to build the menu around (to the left and to the right of) the logo, and perhaps allow it to be a little larger, that would be so great. Alternatively, even an adjustment for how much the logo shrinks down upon scrolling would be very welcome. Thanks in advance for looking into this! =)
Thanks joetweber!
You can actually center the logo now with a little css (add this into the Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel)
header#top nav {
text-align: center!important;
}
header#top nav > ul {
float: none!important;
display: inline-block!important;
}
body #header-outer .span_9, body #header-outer .span_3 {
display: block!important;
float: none!important;
margin: 0!Important;
width: 100%!important;
}
header#top #logo img {
margin: 0 auto 20px auto!important;
}
Thanks for the fast response! Unfortunately this code does not work for me… (I’m using the latest version of Chrome.) The logo and nav are now in separate blocks, but the logo remains on the left and the nav remains on the right. Played with the CSS a bit more, but no luck. Thoughts?
Anyway you can share your URL really quick so I can take a peek?
f8creative.com – user = ThemeNectar / pass = Troubleshooting
Thanks! Can you apply the snippet again into the Custom CSS box so I can see the issue?
Cheers
CSS re-applied, and it is now working—thanks!
Is there a way to separate, say, 3 menu items to float:left of the logo, and 3 to float:right of the logo?
You’re welcome! – This would actually take some custom development as the menu items would need to be split into different lists to work easily with the floating left/right
Cheers
Hi, i can’t work something out. on my frontpage when you scroll down i have a portfolio that i use as a menu to go to different pages. under that i have a testimonial section. behind the testimonial section i have a picture paralex enabled and no repeat because then the whole effect is gone.
So when the portfolio is fully open no problem text testimonal scrolls nicely over the picture, but when i choose a section of the portfolio it gets ofcourse smaller. and when i start scrolling down my picture is not enough it starts to show white page after a while. Is there a solution or do i need the background picture bigger any idea what size. but the effect of scrolling with full portfolio wouldn’t be that nice with a stretched picture.
You can check it out on www.energyhealingcuracao.com
Thanks, Thomas
Hey Thomas,
It sounds like you’re experiencing this: http://themenectar.ticksy.com/ticket/128447/search/

Hi Theme Nectar
I hope you are doing great. I have updated the theme to the newest version, and noticed an issue. Within the Salient settings, on the general settings page, is a box to be ticked :
Extended Responsive Design This will enhance the way the theme responds when viewing on screens larger than 1000px & increase the max width.
I marked it as ticked, saved it, but now when I want to untick it, it redirects me to the portfolio page, without saving me choice for the Extended responsive design option.
(I created a test website with all the files from mevelo, and work on the test site before I make changes on the mevelo site) www.szybkiepozycjonowanie.com (it will be deleted after the website mevelo is finished, and it not accessible by the search engines) I set this option, and now the test website is distorted, all pages.
How to correct it?
Also the new theme version shows polish characters differently than the rest of the text. www.szybkiepozycjonowanie.com/misja
3. We would like to add social sharing icons to appear on images when they are enlarged, in their lower left corner. Portfolio images, or the images added through the “add media” option available through Wordpress. Are you planning to add such an option in the future? or perhaps someone has already added it from those who purchased the theme, and the solution is available
Thanks, cheers
Martyna
Hey Martyna,
1. Can you allow me to check on this in your admin panel to see if I can find the error since this isn’t a known issue?
2. Do you have the “Load Ext. Characters in Default Font” option checked in your typography options?
3. I’ve noted this for the wishlist but I’m unaware of any other users who did this mod – you might be able to find a suitable plugin though
Cheers
Theme Nectar
By some magical force, it is fixed now. I woke up, and the site works well! haha. this is a bit crazy, but it does. so no need to spend your time on fixing it.
2. I will see to it.
3. Thank you
Best wishes Martyna
You’re welcome
Hello! Can nectar slider headers and captions be translated with qtranslate? I’ve successfully used qtranslate with home slider, by adding this: $caption = qtrans_useCurrentLanguageIfNotFoundUseDefaultLanguage($caption); to template-home-4.php code.
To disable home slider, and get nectar slider working, I’m using Default Template. I just don’t know where I can modify nectar slider caption and header code.
Hey Sekkosikim,
The slides in the Home & Netcar Slider are populated from a standard WP custom post type so there data should be translatable by default – I have not used that plugin and only know how to get at it from WPML (there’s a checkbox that says “Make ‘Slides’ translatable”)
Cheers
Hello,
in my portfolio i have a problem that i got white stripes at the images, how can i fix that? Im using google chrome. here is the problem how it looks like; http://imgur.com/mGEcKd5
thank you for your help
Hey scaleokilian,
can you share your actual URL so I can assist?
Cheers
www.thomas-hellmuth.com
thx
Hey – I actually can’t see the white line but I believe if you add this into the Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel it’ll fix it on your end:
.portfolio-items .col {
background-color: #111!important;
}
Cheers
nothing happened… i pasted it in the portfolio page and then in the css box that is right?
ups… everything is fine.. it works.. yayyy thank you.. but um by the way how do i download the update and install it?
Hey again – you can update by downloading a fresh copy from ThemeForest, deleting the current version you have on your server and uploading the new. I recommend using FTP, but you can use the WP dashboard if you prefer. You won’t lose any of your content or theme settings so don’t worry about that if you were
but i changed the background color from the portfolio there where no option so i did that in the style.css file
You can do css edits via the Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel or through a child theme style.css – I would suggest transferring you mods in one of those two locations
Hello, is it possible to disable the search function?
Hey – here’s the ticket that explains how to: http://themenectar.ticksy.com/ticket/52594/search/

all hail TN, thank you for the amazing new update!! multi layer paralax is mindblowing, thank you 
if you’re wondering to buy this theme or not, DO IT
Hey jem_shard, thanks so much! Glad to hear you like it
Hello, is it possible to sort the portfolio filter categories not in alphabetical order, but in a custom order? Now it is ordered in aplhhabetical order, but i would like to have in a different, custom order. How can i do this? Thank you. Best regards.
Hey gaborgerecs,
You’d have to modify the wp_list_categories functions inside of the shortcode-processing.php file which is located in the nectar/tinymce directory
Cheers
How can I make a responsive contact form (horizontal)? I mean 3 fields of name, email and phone in one line with button send? Thanks

With boxed layout on, the home page slider does NOT scale to fit the screen but is cout off instead. is there a setting on the themes backend that make the slides scalable for tablets and mobiles? withiut having to edit the media queries?
Hey stackr,
1. Can you share a URL where this occurs?
2. As long as you have the flexible height option on the scaling should be seamless, i’d be glad to check this out on your setup as well
Hi, where can the flexible height be adjusted on the theme backend? or do you mean auto height in the css?
will send URL but must be private as site not live yet thanks
1. The option is located in the edit settings window for the Visual Composer Nectar Slider element http://i.imgur.com/X18ThIu.jpg
2. Please do so via the forum http://themenectar.ticksy.com in a private ticket
Cheers
as I said previously we are using the home slider NOT the nectar slider…. direct link to private ticket form?
1. The Home Slider does not have the same scaling options as the Nectar Slider and would not be suited for what you’re looking for.
2. There’s no direct link I can give you further then there, once you create a ticket you’ll have the option to choose whether it’s public or private
ok well it should be scalable on devices as its the HOME PAGE SLIDER? is there not a fix for this???
Hey again, I’m not sure what you mean – The Home Slider does scale down as shown in the demo http://themenectar.com/demo/salient/home/home-basic/ it just doesn’t scale the same way as the Nectar Slider so some of the edges of the image will get clipped. Please share your ticket ID so I can check your setup
ticket no. 223069
Thanks, i’ll look into it as soon as I can
hi, its fixed except for ipad +iphone landscape orienation…? any extra media query css for this? thanks
have responded in ticket no. ticket no. 223069
Thanks, I’ll respond as soon as I can

Hello, I a have a question before I buy your great template, is it possible to use the e-commerce function from all pages , like placing a buy button on a portfolio single page? Thank you!
Hey isoarts!
Yes, WooCommerce allows you place add to cart buttons through their shortcodes anywhere you need: http://docs.woothemes.com/document/woocommerce-shortcodes/#section-9
Cheers
Amazing! Sold! 
Great, glad to have you on board!
Hi,
When icons Flickr and 500px ? Thanks!
Hey dacas, can you elaborate a little more so I can fully grasp the question at hand?
Cheers
Sorry, I need in the secondary nav to display social icons, Flickr and 500px. Thanks!
Hey again!
If you need to add custom icons into the header just open the header.php file and add new list items in the
<ul id="social">
Cheers
Can nectar slider headings, captions or even the image itself have a link attached so that when clicked it goes to a project of my choice?
There’s the option for “full slide link” which will set the link onto the entire slide: http://i.imgur.com/nYEfr8p.jpg
Hello,
I’ve installed the theme and I like a lot. The best theme I’ve worked with so far. However, there’s are 2 problems.
1. I don’t see any button shortcode in my visual composer. No call to action buttons or normal ones.
I am editing a portfolio page and I want to do something similar to what you’ve done here right under the header: http://themeforest.net/item/salient-responsive-multipurpose-theme/full_screen_preview/4363266 I’ve set up a full width content row, with red background and a image gallery on the left. On the right I want some text and a button like in the demo, but…
2. I can’t control the left and right paddings without writing html every time. The way it is now, the text box has no padding on the left/right
Hey calin_balea,
1. http://youtu.be/N4mt0lOJ888?t=6m1s
2. You can add column padding through the row settings – have you checked out this in regards? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DpJWWM4BAbo
Cheers
