hello! great theme and I aim planning to re purchase. However the client requires a url on he bottom of every photo in the gallery. Is this possible? Thanks!

Thanks neilgalang!

You can use custom text where the dates are on any portfolio item http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-ascend/portfolio-fullwidth-style-2/ – but text is not able to be overlaid on lightbox images if that’s what you were trying to do.

Cheers

Hi helpful people of Salient! Got a couple more questions for you.

1. Is there a way to add texture to row background images? I would like my background images to align in look to the slider at the top of the home page. (re: Gieka.net/wordpress).

2. Is there a way to add just a partial divider line under the navigation to break the space on the initial transparent setting? I think it would be nice to have a line that is just slightly longer then the navigation (as opposed to the full screen line break that was there before I made it transparent). I also was hoping to align this line break in color with the orange nav.

Thanks much for the fantastic support and theme. Love it!

Hey thegieka!

1. Not yet, but this idea is already on the wishlist :)

2. Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:

#header-outer.transparent .container {
   border-bottom: 1px solid #ef4e27;
}

Cheers

Thanks. One more question….sorry to be a pest.

How can I decrease the padding between the nav and the line break? I would like it closer to 5 pixels and would like it to align with the same padding on transparent and non transparent heading.

Hey again,

You disable the header resize effect in your theme options panel > header tab and also set a smaller padding number :)

Cheers

Hi,

I`m having a problem with a page. My site is in maintenance mode because i`m working on it. I updated the theme do the lastest version and reinstalled Wordpress but whenever I go from any page on my site to creartiv3.eu/comanda/ using the top navigation menu, it gets stuck. The loader keeps spinning and nothing happens.

Any idea what might be wrong? Any users had this previously?

Thanks.

That’s really odd – but if you’ve tried a different browser and can’t get in, shoot me an email at themenectar@gmail.com and let me know once you’ve send it :)

I managed to sign with the old fashioned way. Ticked is opened. Thanks.

Thanks, I’ll be with you as soon as I can :)

Hi,

I’ve updated my website to 4.5.1. I’m using Disqus plugin, but it doesn’t show up. How can I resolve this issue. Thanks :)

Hey ShadiK!

Please share your URL so I can take a look :)

Here you go, http://www.shadi.tv/the-field/

Also, can you tell me how to make the title 100% fullscreen? There’s a white strip when I open it. Is it possible to make it like “Home Extended”?

Thanks! :)

That’s odd – is there anyway you could allow me to login so I can check the setup closer? http://themenectar.ticksy.com/

Hey there, I couldn’t register for your support forums, so I’m reaching out here:

In the Nectar Slider, we have a main headline where the return to line happens right before the last word, so the layout looks really weird.

We’re trying to see if there is any way to control the return to lines for the headline + caption in Nectar slides?

Or is there a way to increase / reduce the width of the content displayed in the Nectar Slider? (that way we can add extra width for the one word to fit).

Definitely could use your help.

Regards,

PW

Hey PW!

1. You can use line breaks in your caption text like this:

Your eyes are not playing tricks on you. <br />
Video backgrounds are natively supported  <br />
in our exclusive & touch-friendly Nectar Slider. 

2. Unfortunately there isn’t – but you could actually still use a recent project element with items in a custom category e.g “blog” that you could only display on the home page and not in your other portfolio listings (there’s the option to use custom project links which could lead to your blog posts:) if desired) – see the ascend demo homepage for an example of this

Cheers

Kicking ass taking names! Thanks :-D

You’re very welcome :)

Hi there,

I would like to have our website translated to other languages. How can that be done through the .mo and .po files?

Thanks very much for your attention.

That screenshot is showing the plugin WPML active which offers a language selector you can add into your header :)

Thank you! Is there any really good and free alternative to WPML? I’ve found qTranslate and Multisite Language Switcher, but I don’t know how reliable they are.

You’re welcome :) I know some people use qTranslate, but I haven’t personally tested it as much as WPML

First off, this template is amazing! Very easy to use and extremely powerful. My comment is for the purpose of making a suggestion.

Would you consider offering more header control in future releases? I’d like to be able to put company contact info in the header as that seems to be a search engine plus. As of now (to my knowledge) the header can only house nav, social and logo.

Thanks!

Thanks hackandedit!

Yes – as of now that would require modding the header.php file, but additional header layouts/options are already on the wishlist :)

Cheers

Fantastic! Thanks man. Again, outstanding work with the template. It’s seriously a pleasure to work with.

Thanks a lot hackandedit! :)

This theme only keeps getting better and better. This developer really cares about supporting and improving his product. One of the best theme purchases I have made in many years.

Thanks a lot woots! It’s great to hear that :)

How do I create a slider in my portfolio. The option showed in the tutorial video seems to not be in the same place as my version of Wordpress.(3.9.1)

Also, Is it possible to create a video background that has a parallax effect on scroll and color overlay in a row in the middle of a page ? I can only create the scrolling parallax on the nectar sliders, and those dont have a color overlay option i believe.

Thank you!

Hey EntrepreneurT,

1. That option was removed since it is now obsolete – the image gallery element in the page builder offers the same display as that plus a ton of other options and th flexibility to move it where you need in the page rather than being forced to keep it at the top.

2. Unfortunately video BG’s can only be parallaxed through the slider – if you needed to add a color overlay to it, css be make that possible :)

Cheers!

How can I remove the slide count of nectar slider? Thanks

Hey Anatal,

Add this into the custom css box:

.swiper-container .slider-prev, .swiper-container .slider-next {
  width: 50px!important;
}

.slide-count {
  display: none!important;
}

If someone, lets say me for example, for some reason wanted to have audio on the autoplay background video, would it then be possible to either: A: Turn off the sound as soon as the video is scrolled OUT of the window? B: Adjust the soundvolume so that the video turns down gradiently until its out of the screen?

This would be a cool feature, specially when having more videos on one page…

You can accomplish this on video BG rows by editing the row.php file located inside of the nectar/nectar-vc-addons/vc_templates directory and removing the loop attribute on the video element near line 244 :)

Impressing if you have memorized all the lines. Thanks mate.

You’re welcome :)

Hi ThemeNectar,

Every time when I go to my site at thecravebar.com its a little glitchy while the homepage loads. Can you let me know why I’m seeing this narrow grey box on the home slider?... http://i.imgur.com/yREtwgQ.png

How can I fix this? Thanks!

Hey PairDesigners!

I’m seeing your server taking between 1-2 seconds before actually loading in any of the javascript (which the slide needs to adjust to the screen width) – have you tried to reach out to your hosting company in regards or see if any plugins are causing it?

I have version 3.15. I would like to upgrade. Do you have any upgrade documentation? Do I just install the latest as if it were a new theme? If I do that will it affect the current design? www.HonestMotion.com.

Hey kjdoyle1! There’s instructions in the user guide, but to summarize:

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 :)

Hi there,

Please could you provide me with the custom CSS to switch my logo to the right and my nav menu to the left in the header (keeping the responsiveness if possible).

This is the site: http://www.motivmedia.tv/image-technique/

Thanks,

Rory

Hey Rory!

Add this into the custom css box in your Salient options panel:

#header-outer .span_3, #header-outer .span_3 #logo {
   float: right!important;
}
#header-outer .span_9 {
   float: left!important;
}

Cheers

Thanks but the navbar is now appearing in the center rather than on the left – http://www.motivmedia.tv/image-technique/

is it possible to float it left under the social media icons?

thanks

Hey again – add this in as well:

header#top nav > ul {
   float: left!important;
}

Hey bud, you just keep excelling yourself with Salient – very awesome has nearly every feature going now :) – except 1…... off canvas right or left slide in menu would be so awesome :)

Awesome stuff mud Rich

It’s definitely on the wishlist, I just couldn’t fit it in the schedule for 4.5 due to time constraints :)

no worries bud, hopefully next release? :-)

Hopefully in the next featured based one :)

Hi there – trying to get the buttons on the first slide of this home page to align further right, and further down? Any handy CSS / Extra-Class name?

http://www.floorplanz.co.uk/wordpress/

Any help appreciated!

Hey parkcorner!

Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:

.home .swiper-wrapper > div:nth-child(2) .content {
    margin-right: -200px;
    margin-top: 100px;
}

Cheers :)

Thank you very much! Super theme! Super guys!

You’re welcome :)

Hi there, I was using an older version of this theme, have just updated and can’t for the life of me see where I create a ‘gallery;’ portfolio item, i.e. with multiple images. I tried inserting a [gallery] but it put them in the sidebar. I vaguely remember there was an option for “display images as gallery (or slideshow)” or something to that effect. So, basically, just need to know how to have multiple images for one portfolio project?

Hey BC03!

That option was removed since it is now obsolete – the image gallery element in the page builder offers the same display as that plus a ton of other options and th flexibility to move it where you need in the page rather than being forced to keep it at the top. To use it simply go into the Visual Composer view on your editor and add an “Image Gallery” :)

Cheers

Hi !

Is there a way to not display the date under the images in a portfolio list set as ‘Meta below thumb with link on hover’ ? I know I probably have to erase the line of code that handles the meta but I can’t find it.

Some help would be really appreciated ! Thanks ! Keep up the good work, your theme is awesome !

Hey Nordways!

There’s an option to disable the dates from displaying on portfolio items in the Salient options panel > portfolio tab :)

Oh sorry. I didn’t even check the Salient options panel as I thought that kind of options wouldn’t be available. Thank you for pointing me to the right direction. I have another question though, is it possible to set a specific order for the portfolio items to display without playing with the publication dates, and that is more specific than just alphabetical order ?

Thanks ! :)

Hey again! You can use this plugin for drag and drop reordering :) https://wordpress.org/plugins/intuitive-custom-post-order/

Hi there,

Thank you for the great theme, I’ve just got two small questions.

- I’ve noticed that the portfolio boxes are not correctly aligned on my page. http://www.courtney-novits.com/portfolio/ If you look at the one project I’ve uploaded, you can see that it overlaps the black on the left. Is there a way to fix this?

- When using the small icons, is it possible for these to work like bullet points. For example, if the text is multiple lines long, can it be indented to where the first line’s text began? I’ve used icons in the tabs on this page http://www.courtney-novits.com/about-me/ and although most text is only one line long on a full screen, it is multiple lines long on smaller devices.

Thank you

Courtney

Hey Courtney!

1. The last item in a portfolio masonry display will appear out a few pixels if it’s not touching the edge of a screen – this is because of the extra width needed on every project to ensure no white lines/empty spaces between the projects when using the isotope plugin.

2. You can use the fancy list Visual Composer element for this :)

Cheers

Great, thank you!

You’re welcome :)

Hi TN,

Somehow I can’t find the default.php file mentioned in http://themenectar.ticksy.com/ticket/178318/search/.

Could you tell me where to find it and if this solution is best?

Thanks

Hey hookieoalo – it’s located in the nectar/options directory :)
