Hi. I tried to even the padding on my widget-footer (there is always a lot of space on the bottom and not on top on all rows) and tried to play around using this code I found. But it doesnt seem to work. What am I doing wroing here?
footer-widgets .row {
padding-bottom: 5 px !important; padding-top: 30 px !important; }
Hey peter4576,
That’s because of your Facebook widget – use this:
.cff-likebox {
height: 150px!important;
}
Cheers
Ah sorry my bad! I thought it was responsive, the plugin
No worries 
Hello could you please tell me how to fix my recent work opening a new page? I have a recent work section on my home page and anytime I click any of the images they open in a new tab (target _blank I assume) and I don’t want this to occur. I want them to open in the same page. Thanks!
Hey NinetyAndNine,
please update to 4.1.1 and this will be sorted 
Cheers
I updated to 4.1.1 and it is still happening … I even emptied my cache
Please share your URL so I can take a look 
Thank you very much for being so helpful. It’s still a work in progress site but here you go : www.JolietteDesigns.com click on any of the recent work images and they open in a new tab (inspect element shows target _blank on them) no option I see to change that but you’ll know better than I. Thanks!!
Hey again!
I thought you actually meant the recent work element in the theme, not the portfolio one being used to show recent items. Have you entered anything in for the external project URL in the project configuration box?
external project URL fields are all empty
Can you please open a private ticket in regards with your login credentials so I can take a look? http://themenectar.ticksy.com/
I am having problems with the nectar slider not displaying or loading when using a video. I’ve tried the steps available on the user guide but still no luck. Also, the video I am trying to use works elsewhere on the site so I know that it is not the video which is the issue.
Hey godzspeedcomms,
please share your URL so I can assist you

Hi Nectar. I have a few questions please. 1) I’m using Yoast SEO and I’m noticing that Yoast is not recognizing images within Visual Composer. I’m getting the “no images appear on your page” warning. I tested this on page using your Team Member element and I suspect this may also occur with the Image element. Any suggestions or are there plans to improve this? 2) Is there a Lightbox feature in the theme. I simply want to view a PDF in the Lightbox using a URL link? Thanks as always.
Hey Joe,
1. Have you confirmed this only occurs with Salient or is it a VC issue? Also, whether or not Yoast can see them – they are indeed there and visible to search engines.
2. Try using this in the text tab on your editor
<a href="http://your-url.com/your-file.pdf?iframe=true“&width=800&height=1000"></a>
Cheers
Thanks again Nectar. For item 1, I assume it’s probably with VC. I used the Enfold theme a long time ago and that developer added in some custom code to help support this for Yoast. I was just curious if others had this issue. I can probably just ignore the warnings, if it works with fine with search engines.
No worries – I’ll also try and check with the VC team to see if it’s a known issue 
Cheers
Hi there,
Can you take a look at the following page: http://andypeck.co.uk/portfolio/swindells/
I have 3 issues:
>1 I need each of the rows (with three columns in each) to stay together and not wrap untidily which it will do on different resolutions/monitors sizes. Therefore, I want to end up with a two row grid made up of 3 columns in each row.
>2 The first row I created here seems to have a bug in that its wrapping when it shouldnt and the second row (which is nothing more than a duplicate of the above row) is correct! Odd behaviour and I cant find any rogue code.
>3 I would like to put an ‘orange’ icon at the front of each line that starts with the word ‘Overview’. How is this done as I dont want them as buttons, just vector graphics?
Cheers as always. Andy
- to add to the first point. What I mean is I want to ensure it always remains as 2 rows by 3 columns regardless of screen size or image size. Is this possible?
Hey Andy,
1/2 – can you open a ticket with your login credentials and paste your ticket here so I can sort this for you?
3. Yes, a vector graphic would do or you could use one of the icon shortcodes 
Cheers
Hi there,
Thanks for getting back to me. Here’s the ticket No: #222089
in regard to question 3. Can you give me an example on how to do this with the icon shortcode as it seems to only create it as a rollover button. I just want a static icon (no button) * ive also added this point to the questions in the support area
Cheers Andy
Thanks – just need the admin login credentials now

Hi there,

Thanks, I’ll check as soon as I can 
Hi ThemeNectar, I wonder if there is any possibility to convert into a hyperlink the overall image of the Home sliders. This way when the user clicks on the image opens a new page
Hey zonacincofoto,
Yes – but this is only an option in the Nectar Slider, if you’re using the Home Slider I’d suggest switching in order to get the feature without having to do custom development.
Cheers 
Thanks for your answer, that is implemented in a way Nectar Slider. Might you show me some example.
Thanks
Hi ThemeNectar, I all ready solve the question. Thank
Great to hear 
Cheers
Can you tell me how to get a secondary sticky menu to work as a sub-navigation section like on this site: http://newrelic.com/insights/use-cases
You already are using the stick.js for sticky sidebars, there must be a way to add other elements as sticky elements (I just lack the skillz)
Hey greatnorwegian,
The sticky.js would only work for sidebars without development, if you need a horizontal menu to stick it would need to be some custom JS. Do you already have a horizontal navigation setup? If so please share your URL so I can point you in the right direction 
Cheers
I do not have one built yet but if you can point in the direction to something that will work and not conflict that would be great.
Are you looking to turn the submenu already assigned to the navigation into a horizontal sticky display when on the parent page of that menu – or do you need a different menu all together that’s added into the page editor somewhere to be the one?
Cheers
Similar to http://newrelic.com/insights/use-cases, I’m looking to create a horizontal list within a div on specific pages that would contain intra-page links (bookmarks). When the user clicks on a link he scrolls to that section of the page but this horizontal list would stay sticky on top of the page, right under the main navigation (so it would be offset by 100px or so).
What you describe could work too but sounds more involved. I basically want to be able to ‘stick anything’ that I might put into a row using the visual page builder. I’d add the sticky class to that page row or content within the row if I wanted it to stick to the top.
When the header shrinks the row would need to move up with it so if you have that option enabled it would require some custom scripting – if not, than it would be as simple as adding the class “sticky-content” to the row and using something like this in the Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel:
.sticky-content {
position: fixed;
top: 120px;
width: 100%;
left: 0;
}
Gorgeous theme, but when I activate, Woocommerce I get a white screen with the logo and menu at the top. Every thing is the latest version. Am I doing something wrong?
http://walls101.com/Thanks maui!
I would get in touch with your hosting company to ensure your PHP is not running out of memory as blank screens usually point to that.
Cheers
Hi ThemeNectar,
I’m having trouble making a child theme. I’ve followed all the steps correctly and everything is coming out all crazy. Are you able to tell if there is anything that I’m doing wrong? Anyway to fix this? site is live here … thecravebar.com
Hey PairDesigners, I don’t see anything wrong on your URL but I assume you’ve deactivated it – please open a private ticket with your login credentials so I can look at the child theme and see what’s wrong 
Cheers
Hi ThemeForest,
I’ve got the latest theme and wordpress versions and I’m not able to see or edit text in a text block. See screenshot here… http://i.imgur.com/TFZXXZZ.png
Site is live here.. thecravebar.com
Anything I can do to fix this? Thanks!
Hey PairDesigners,
There’s no known issue with Salient 4.0.3+ and WP 3.9+ – If you’ve already checked for a plugin conflict please open a ticket in regards so I can see what’s causing the error 
Cheers
I have problem with tabs since 4.1. Some JS mixup!
I have deactivated ALL the plugins. I have changed to salient theme (I’m using a child). No change. I have cleared my cache.
http://www.nykopingsgk.se/kontakt/Hey alexkappelweb,
I don’t see any tabs on that page – where are they supposed to be?
Yeah sorry. I had to correct that Contact Us page because it was our live site. The same error can be found on http://www.nykopingsgk.se/klubbmastare/
Thanks for the updated link – have you already verified it’s not a plugin conflict?
I just tried deactivating everything again. So no, and I even tried the latest version of the theme WITHOUT using my child theme.
It has something to do with this line right after ul
div class=”clear” style=”visibility: visible; position: relative; left: 0px; display: block; opacity: 1;”
Cause when I delete it in Chrome “firebug” and start clicking the tabs. It gets right again. Try yourself.
That’s a style created from javascript so there’s nowhere to delete that or modify it via css, however since the tabs are still functioning normally on my testing locally and on the demo running the latest version I would need to log in to your setup to assist further

Thanks – just responded 
How can I show a milestone that it 3,500? When I put 3,500 in as “Milestone Number” it becomes 3…
Hey SteveZL,
You can’t have commas in a milestone without custom development unfortunately – you would need to enter “3500”
Cheers
Wow, sounds a little peculiar…Must be more complicated than I thought. No way around it?
Not without modding the JS code unfortunately – in this example page they explain the basics of adding decimals to the numbers which is a similar method to what you’re looking for: https://github.com/mhuggins/jquery-countTo
Hi Theme Nectar,
Witth WooCommerce installed, how do I setup the product/category pages to have a sidebar on both the left and right sides?
Hey bizcrave,
This would require defining a new widget area in the functions.php and calling it in the woocommerce.php file 0 unfortunately there’s no option for this by default.
Cheers
Hello again!
Thanks again for making such a wonderful theme. Quick question —
The WYSIWYG editor seems to have broken. It was working for a while but has since rendered incorrectly without access to any of the kitchen sink controls.
Please see the example below: http://imgur.com/5HzgAdcAny idea what is causing this? Thanks!!!
Hey evilgeniusdan,
If you’re running WP 3.9+ you need to make sure you’re on the current release of Salient in order to correct this issue – if you’re updated on both please check for plugins that may be causing this 
Cheers
I am using this code in the Custom CSS box for Semi-Transparent Header:
html body #header-outer.transparent[data-transparent-header=”true”], html body #header-outer { background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.7)!important; }
But I want it when you scroll down a little bit that the header turns to solid color??
Hey Milo!
Can I please see your URL so I can check on what’s overwriting it?
The map on contact page does not seem to work properly when using a section-title in firefox with a windows size larger than a span 12 column. It works fine in chrome and IE. How can I fix this?
see http://jonatanbergstrom.com/contact/ for example (firefox)
Also, scrolling pages on a touch screen (windows 8.1) is really slow/laggy in chrome, and does not work at all in IE and firefox. Is this a problem on my end or a problem with the theme/wordpress?
Hey snilton,
1. Use the Visual Composer map element instead if you’re trying to place object(s) above the map (set the page template back to default)
2. I assume if you simply disable the smooth scrolling option in the theme general settings it’ll fix itself, but I’ve noted to test with W8 touchscreen non mobile to see if I can replicate – thanks for reporting 
Cheers
How do i create a multi line infowindow? In the contact settings i could use
EDIT: duplicate comment
Having trouble commenting here. How do i create a multi line infowindow. In the conctact settings i could us /br tags. In the map element i cannot
And another edit: hardcoded the infowindow text in map.js. Thanks for the help!
Hey again snilton! Glad you got it 
Cheers
Is it possible to have a 5 column row? It’s seems like there is a bug in visual composer…
Hey again, despite VC allowing you to use 1/5’s in the backend via custom layouts – both VC and Salient don’t support 1/5 columns on the front since the grid system both use is based on a 12 column system. If you wanted to use that you’d need to use some custom css in order to get it to work.
Cheers!
Hi there,
Amazing theme thanks so much.
I can see your using the Lovelo font through out the site – I am using the Typography editor and would like to have the text appear as Lovelo at the same size as the demo for the general text (ie lowercase and 12px I think)
Mine seems to be uppercase – I have even changed all of the options to lowercase and still the text appears uppercase.
Can you help please?
Thanks Jim
Thanks Jim!
Lovelo is actually used in uppercase throughout the demo and is only available in that by default – which section were you talking about? If you mean the body text that is actually Open Sans in the default weight 
Cheers
Ah okay, so when I changed the body to the Open Sans it has gone to the default lower case
Thanks so much
You’re welcome 
Hi ThemeNectar,
I have an issue with the blog posts, everything appears okay until I click on the post itself and there is no contents – An error message also appears:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_the_permalink() in /home/jimp1234/public_html/jimparker.photography/wp-content/themes/salient/single.php on line 74
Do you know what could be causing this?
Many thanks Jim
Hey Jim! Is your WordPress up to date? This is an issue caused by the Google+ sharing button when using earlier WordPress versions – please try and update your setup or deactivate the Google+ button for now (I’m pushing an update to correct this very shortly)
Cheers!
Hi ThemeNectar,
I downloaded your theme last week so I presume its the latest update?
Also how do you deactivate the Google+ button? As far as I can see in the… Salient – Social Media – settings I only have the FB and IG links in the fields. All the rest (including Google+) are empty…
Many thanks! Jim
Hey again!
The update which fixed this was just released a couple days ago – and the button is able to disabled by the blog options tab 
Can you add extra social media accounts? For instance: flickr?
Hey again,
you would need to add them into the footer.php/header.php files into the social list – i’ve noted to add flickr for the next release though 
Cheers
Hello, incredible nice theme (best I’ve seen). Is there an option to have a blank page? I would like to have a page without the header, footer and the menu to design a coming soon page…
Thanks TheWhiteHoward!
Right now you’d need to create a page template for that or simply use css on the page you wish to hide that on:
#header-outer, #header-space, #footer-outer {
display: none!important;
}
Cheers
