Hi there,

for custom layout how can I have 7 columns please, I have tried: 1/7 + 1/7 + 1/7 + 1/7 + 1/7 + 1/7 + 1/7 but that didn’t work out.

thank you

Hey :)

Unfortunately this wouldn’t be possible without custom development since Salient is based on a 12 column grid system.

Cheers

no problem, I will work around it! thanks for getting back to me!

You’re very welcome! :)

Hey ThemeNectar,

i love the theme and how it works. Since the last Update (WP and the Theme) i have many problems to open the page within my Safari. Chrome works fine (i think it might be the mp4/webm video support?). My friends told me that their Firefox at Windows does also work fine. Safari on iPad and iPhone has also performance issues.

I already did a full reset with my safari (cache etc) but no change at. Do you have any idea what the problem might cause?

Many thanks in advance Daniel

Hey Gefilmt!

I just checked on Safari (windows & mac) but can’t see anything wrong – can you let me know what some of the issues you’re experiencing are?

Cheers

Hello Nectar,

I just updated the themes to the most current version and the button on my nectar slider got messed up (at least in Chrome and Firefox). http://www.upupweddings.com/

As you can see the blue button is overlapping the text background (at least in Chrome and Firefox). It looks normal in Safari.

Thanks!

Hey althaua, you just need to add this into your Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel to assist with the header transparent BG mod you have:

@media only screen and (min-width: 1000px) {
   .swiper-slide .content h2 {
        line-height: 100px!important;
   }
}

Cheers!

Thanks!

You’re welcome :)

I’m getting some padding on either side of the nectar slider in BOXED mode… Only since I’ve updated to the latest version of the theme today. Can’t see any particular CSS that’s causing it … is it something wrong with my image size? They are 1600px wide…

Hey SeanAUS120,

that’s odd but enter this into the Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel to sort it :)

.nectar-slider-wrap[data-full-width="boxed-full-width"] {
    margin: 0 -57px !important;
}

Cheers

Hi, The latest WordPress 3.9 update on tinyMCE affected the visual editor of this theme specifically the “Text Block with WYSIWYG”. I hope you’ll be able to release an update to fix this problem.

Thanks

Hey bizhoop,

Salient v4.0.3 was released shortly after WP 3.9 went live and corrects this issue :)

Hi,

Thanks for all the help with my previous comments, it is really appreciated.

Am I able to include a LinkedIn share button on blog posts?

KR, HWA

Hey HWA,

unfortunately this wouldn’t be possible without some custom development however you can also use a plugin for social buttons and deactivate the built in theme ones if you desire :)

Hi, thanks for the reply.

OK, if I wanted to position the social buttons in exactly the same place would I need to edit one of the PHP template files? I’m not sure I can access the far right of the blog post title element from the CMS.

Kind Regards,

HWA.

Yes, you’d need to edit the single.php file located in the root of the theme directory :)

Hi, really great theme! Assuming that they are based on the same codebase, why are the Home Slider and Nectar Slider on separate settings pages with slightly different options? Is there a design decision that I’m missing? Or perhaps historical reasons?

Thanks cperrone! They are actually based on completely different slider frameworks – the Home Slider is really only around for legacy users and for new users who like the look better :)

Ah ok, that explains it! Nectar Slider is just great for any page really, so I’m happy to use just that and I’ll simply ignore the home slider. Great to see some level of integration with Revolution Slider too, although you spoiled us with the toolbar transparency and parallax effect of Nectar Slider. Really, really awesome work. Looking forward for your next updates :-)

Thanks a lot cperrone! :)

Parallax isn’t working on Nectar Slider. Attempted to correct it in many different ways, and it doesn’t work on any page. Slide Image is just unresponsive. How do I fix this?

I can see the slider parallaxing normally on all browsers it should (Firefox, Chrome, IE, Opera) – if you’re using Safari it’s also disabled for performance reasons on there, but you can enable it if you want by opening the nectar-slider.js file located in the js folder and deleting this line:
 if(navigator.userAgent.indexOf('Safari') != -1 && navigator.userAgent.indexOf('Chrome') == -1) { return false; }

Awesome, thank you

You’re welcome :)

Hi!

Im trying to use early access google fonts. Iv tried several methods to put the @import url(http://fonts.googleapis.com/earlyaccess/nanumgothic.css); into header.php , but it doesnt get me anywhere. iv also used the snippet to change font familiy in custom css.

Any help appriciated.

:)

I tried to send you a private message about this issue, i cant open the page due to clients request. But the problem persists. If I add @import url(http://fonts.googleapis.com/earlyaccess/nanumgothic.css); into the header.php the snippet it self actually shows on top left corner when I view the page in boxed mode.

:(

I solved this issue… can’t put that in header.

Good to hear Etemmu :)

Cheers!

PS – would you provide a “Forgot password/ resend password” page to you theme in next release?b

Hey again,

WordPress automatically has a forgot password page built into the core – it’s not something a theme would need to add. You can get to it by adding /my-account/lost-password/ onto your URL – if that’s not working you might have a permalink/plugin conflict.

Cheers

Thanks – just FYI – I disabled WooCommerce-plug-in (which I had never used or manipulated) and it worked :0)

WooCommerce adds a page /my-account which could have hijacked the permalink :)

Glad you sorted it!

Pls be advised that I get no update info about a version 4+. Im still on version 3.9, and the hover-colour (accent colour) is not working on your theme :0(

Thanks!

Sorry I thought I had sent the number… Here you go. #200645

Thanks, I’ll check that out now :)

Hi… I’m having a weird blank section issue.

If I create a page, then add via the visual composer a blog section, enter options and publish, I see the blog posts fine.

If however I try the same thing using a portfolio page, I can’t see the blog posts (using the exact same code). The weird thing is the code is there in the front end, as if you move the mouse around you can click on links etc. you just can’t see anything.

Cheers…

Can you share your URL so I can take a look at why this may be?

Cheers :)

Sure. Our development URL is here: http://instinct.weloveapes.com/work/savse-smoothies/

If you scroll down the page a little the modals should pop out of the coverage thumbs…

Cheers.

Hey again!

It seems the issue is coming from a plugin that is also loading the prettybox plugin – can you attempt to check for a plugin conflict by deactivating your active plugins?

Cheers

Love this theme! Do you happen to have a psd once i purchased this theme? :)

Thanks tryxe :)

Unfortunately there’s no PSD’s included because there’s no images used in the design elements. If you needed a PSD for mocking up, a screenshot would be almost as useful.

I’ve encountered a problem with the visual composer, when i add a text block I’m unable to see the text, like its invisible. i could type, and nothing shows till you come out from it. the only way i could see what i type is if i use the classic editor ( it doesn’t give me good idea of what i want or how i’d like it to look)

I downloaded the new one … I had to reset my database and all coz of some issue.

Actually I don’t think I did … Lol sorry about that will try again, if the same thing happens will let you know

No worries – let me know if that doesn’t clear it up :)

Hiya!

Can someone please point me in the right direction on how to update the theme?

I’ve downloaded the theme again from Themeforst, gone to:

Appearance > Themes > Upload Theme > (Salient.Zip) however got this error:

“Unpacking the package…

Installing the theme…

Destination folder already exists. /home2/andylame/public_html/andypluslam.com.au/wp-content/themes/salient/

Theme install failed.”

I just need to do the update to fix up the little logo duplication in the header.

Hey Andy!

You just need to delete the current version you have of theme before uploading the new :)

Having some issues with loading the Frostwave XML typography settings. Can someone let me know the Google font for the Nectar Slider and the font sizes and settings in general. I reloaded the XML file and it’s just the same typography settings. I figured it out before but it’s not working again. Thank you.

Hey acmediaservices! The XML dummy data file doesn’t import the theme options – the other file located in the dummy data folder is for that (you paste the contents of it into the import tab of the theme options). For whatever reason if you can’t get it the font is called “lovelo” and it’s at 100px :)

Cheers

On my portfolios, I’d like the functionality to be able to share the photos to Facebook, Twitter, or Pintrest that are being presented in prettyphoto with a button of some sort. Is there some way to do this?

Hey magnifyvalor,

unfortunately there’s no easy way to place the share buttons in a lightbox without some custom development – they can only be used on actual pages

Cheers

Thanks anyway, amazing theme :)

You’re welcome :)

Hi,

your theme looks fantastic. But before i purchase it i have few important questions : Because i’m new in WP, maybe the answer will be obvious :

With the portfolio style masonry, is it possible to enlarge images without going to a new page ? (like it’s possible with “simple” gallery) Same question for videos. As well do you have embedded vimeo ?

thanks

Thanks gdeschaud!

1. Yes you can turn any portfolio into a gallery only without the single project page :)

2. You can embed a vimeo video wherever you need but it can’t be the thumbnail of a project in the portfolio grid if that’ what you’re wondering.

Cheers :)

What a nice job you have done, anticipating all our needs. Sorry to be asking trivia questions, but I’m still new at this.

For anyone reading this link- Once you enable activation you have a series of Animation options available…

THanks again.

Thanks SteveZL! I’m slightly confused at your question – did you end up figuring it out and editing in the answer or are you querying about the animation options in some way?

Cheers :)

I’m experiencing a strange bug with the transparent header when viewing my site on an iPad.

The transparency is working as intended to start out with. I scroll down the page and the header becomes solid white (as intended) but the problem happens when I scroll back up to the top the header becomes large again but the transparent background turns GREY instead of back to transparent.

Is this a known bug? I can’t find any discussions on this matter.

I can see it occurring too on my iPad mini – i’ve noted to test for this and see if it’s a theme bug or mobile browser bug. Thanks for noting :)

Ok cool. Just thought it was strange. Glad I could help.

Indeed, thanks :)
