Hey,
How can I set up the shop page like yours? http://themeforest.net/item/salient-responsive-multipurpose-theme/full_screen_preview/4363266
Hey luckskywalker,
the shop page seen on the demo is just using the default WooCommerce dummy data included with the plugin – please see this in regards to importing it: http://docs.woothemes.com/document/importing-woocommerce-dummy-data/
Just want to say . . . I love your support. I use this forum to get some basic css and html questions answered because you folks go above and beyond to provide clear and concise answers. Thanks!!!
Thanks so much powerhound, I’m glad to hear you’ve been enjoying the experience! 
Responsive design is good, but sometimes in mobile we would like to get rid of some elements. It would be great for each item to have a combobox indicating its presence : all, desktop+ipad+iphone, desktop+ipad, desktop, etc or even simpler based on minimum screen resolutions (height and width). Setting min height = 0 and min width= 0 would make them present always. Not it is device dimensions not browser.
I have done this using CSS before. What is currently the Salient prefered way?
Hey Steve,
Because there aren’t options for this by default, the only way to hide certain items would be through css like this:
/* hide in iPad */
@media only screen and (min-width: 690px) and (max-width: 1000px) {
}
/* hide in smart phones */
@media only screen and (max-width: 690px) {
}
/* hide in both */
@media only screen and (max-width: 1000px) {
}
Cheers
Once again, great product, outstanding support! I have bought a few products here and no one comes close! Responsive support and great value rich videos!
Thanks a lot Steve! 
Hi! How can I change the text in the search? I want to change the language
From “Start Typing…” to “Empieza a escribir…” Thanks! I love your theme!
Hey Aka12TvK!
You can alter that text in via the .po file included with the theme or by simply editing the searchform.php file if you wanted to hardcode the change 
Cheers
i’ve updated the theme and I can’t upload images to the nectar slider and home slider. When I press the upload button, nothing happens. Help me please
all is updated theme, wp and plugin
Hey carloalbertodellasiega,
I would need to check this out for you on the back end to try and see the error since this isn’t a known issue – if you’ve already verified that a plugin isn’t causing this, please open a private ticket here in regards

Hi there quick question.
I want to add a menu item to my navigation but want it to be off a bit more to the right of the screen and have a different colour. I am sure its a matter of adding padding and a colour within the CSS class in the menu structure, just not sure what that could would be, any thoughts?
thanks a bunch!
Hey shiver1001!
Yes this could be achieved with css
Add a class to the menu item such as “cool-link” and then add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
.cool-link {
position: absolute!important;
right: 30px!important;
top: 30px!important;
}
body #header-outer .cool-link a {
color: red!important;
}
Cheers
thanks I have actually tried that and I managed to make it work except that the positioning seems off. I played with the numbers but cant get it to work, what I am trying to accomplish is that the donate button is to the right of the contact and a bit over. here is what is actually happening http://www.philmorrisonward20.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/issue.jpg
Any thoughts on how to rectify that?
You’re welcome 
If you just want to move it a little further away from the contact link – try this instead:
.cool-link {
margin-left: 10px!important;
}
Hi, Salient How to enable the breadcrumb on the product page? Thanks in advance!

Thank you for your help in advance : )
Hey paulbatterham!
I am actually seeing the video BG on your URL load in correctly with FF on Windows – are you still experiencing this issue or possible experiencing different results on another OS?
Oh interesting, the problem we are having is with FF on Mac.
Hey again! I’m on my Macbook now and am actually still seeing them load in – have you attempted to verify the behavior you’ve described on another computer?
So bizarre you are right, who knows what happened there. Thank you for looking into it.
Glad to hear it’s working now 
Cheers
Hi Guys!
Amazing Theme. Having soo much fun playing around with this.
Quick question though, on the Home Slider I’d like to change the location of the “left” option under the slide alignment for caption and button. Is there any specific css code which handles this?
Thanks!
Hey JMeyrick!
Yes you could control that with css, just let me know an idea of how you wanted to alter it so I can assist 
Cheers
Thanks! I would like to move the caption to the top left side of the slider image. It’s currently sitting a too low on the left and is getting lost in the background.
Hey again!
Try adding this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
body .swiper-slide[data-x-pos="left"] .content {
top: 130px !important;
}
.swiper-slide[data-x-pos="left"] .container {
margin: 0!important;
}
LOVE This theme so far.
Can you please tell me which site you purchased the blue flyover of the buildings around New York video from?
Thanks,
Hey graphicmonkey!
The sources for all the dummy data content are listed in the user guide 
Cheers
Hi, i am trying to replicate the slider in your Ascend demo. Its on the about us extended page. Can you please advise how to do this?
Hey dancarney, that’s a mouse based parallax row – here’s a tutorial on the subject
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NIgi-YyspcE
I have a problem with paging on my blog page. When I click on page2 then I get a 404 error. I have only installed the dummy data from the theme and set permalinks to postname.
Hey AlainL,
can you please share your URL so I can take a look?
Hi, the website is still under development. I need to send you login details so you can look at it. Where can I send login details to?
A private ticket at http://themenectar.ticksy.com/ would be ideal 
Hi, How do I add a textured overlay to my portfolio header image? Thank you =D
Hey paramourmelb!
Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
body.single-portfolio #page-header-bg:after {
background-image:url('YOUR-TEXTURE.png');
content: " ";
display: block;
height: 100%;
left: 0;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
width: 100%;
}
Cheers
One more question if you don’t mind. Can I create a “scroll to the top” button on mobile pages as there are on other devices with this theme? I noticed I have to keep flicking all the way back to the top of a long page on my android. Thanks!
Hey akaalvin,
You’d need to alter the logic in the init.js file that removes the button for mobile devices – you can find the correct section by searching for “toTopBind” in the file 
Cheers
Hi there, I have tiny problem. I can’t figure out how can add some content on my blog page before the blog posts. For example, I want to add a short message for my readers on the blog page, and after that I want to display my recent blog posts. I tried editing my blog page and adding the message in visual composer but every time when I update the page I don’t see anything but recent blog posts. Thanks in advance for your help.
Hey welovedoka,
instead of using the posts page in settings > reading, just add a blog element onto your page so you can control what’s above it in the page builder or editor 
Cheers
I would like to disable the Chrome-specific smooth scrolling effect that is built into the theme in Salient v4.5+ (and any others that are hard-coded and do not have an option in the theme options area).
Can you tell me where this code is located so I can remove or comment it? Thank you.
Hey joetweber,
You can find that in the init.js file by searching for ”//chrome ss” – should be on lines 158 – 161 
Cheers
Hello. I have problem of lightbox in portfoilo page.
If body height is lower than lightbox image, Lightbox image is cropped. So i fixed css, temporarily.
.page-id-77{
min-height : 1000px;
}
Here is problem page : http://nolook87.cafe24.com/?page_id=77
Click ‘Dressing Room’ category, min-height css off, and click image.
I using WP is 3.9.1 and Salient 4.5.1. When i using Salient 4.0.3 version, there was no ploblem.
Thanks.
Hey finalfire,
This was always the case because of the nature of the lightbox – anyway you can downgrade to show me the different functionality?
Cheers
This page work well. http://www.ixnine.com/?page_id=334
Try adding this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
body, .container-wrap {
overflow: visible!important;
}
Im having an issue with my nectar slider on the home page and the page header images on all of my pages on iOS devices (iphone and ipad). It is working fine on all other browsers. Do you have any suggestions on how I can fix this issue. It is urgent.
Hey SMU1227,
Can you please share your URL so I can see what the issue is?
Cheers
I cant share the URL because it is for a concept that I dont want out in public just yet. Also, the contact forms are not showing up when I use the new updated theme
Can you share it in private? http://themenectar.ticksy.com/ if not, please try and describe in more detail the the issue is you’re seeing and also let me know what contact form you’re using
So, when i try to open any of my pages via ipad, iphone, or safari, the nectar slider images don’t load. Also, the page header images on all the other pages won’t load either. The images load properly on chrome, internet explorer, and firefox, but not on safari for mobile or desktop.
As for the contact forms not showing up on safari or ios, I am using contact form 7. The issue started when I changed to the new “Ascend” version of the site.
1. Does this occur on the live demo for you as well?
2. Since there’s no known issues with CF7, it would be a lot easier to help if I could see the page in private – have you opened a ticket in regards?
Hi Nectar. I believe I found the issue that was causing my contact page to not display when using the ajax page loading feature. I’m using Gravity Forms and when that element is added to the page with the Enable Ajax option turned on for the form, the page hangs and doesn’t display.
If I turn that option off, the page loads fine, but the page goes white on form submit and never returns. I would prefer like to have the ajax option enabled, so can you offer any suggestions to resolve this issue? Thanks again!
Hey Joe,
Can you please share your URL so I can take a look at the error?
Cheers
Hi Nectar. I just created a new ticket with my issues. I would appreciate if you could take a look when you get a chance. Thanks as always for the support.
Hey! Could you let me know the ticket number?
Cheers 
No problem. Ticket #255063. Thanks. 
Thanks for letting me know 
Thanks Nectar. Any ETA on this? Regards, Joe
Hey Joe, I found the plugin conflict last night with Gravity + AJAX transitions – I’ll be getting back to you shortly in regards 
Hi Nectar. I updated the ticket. I cleared all cache, but still can’t get the form to submit. Hopefully, you can take another look. Regards.
Hey again – do you have the ajax option for the form disabled?
Hello. If I turn off the Gravity forms ajax option, the form will submit, but the screen turns white and never comes back. If I enable the ajax option, the Contact page will not load. All I see is the ajax icon loader. Hope this helps. Thanks!
Thanks for the additional clarification – i’ll see what can be done 
Hi Nectar. Please keep me posted if you find any fixes for this issue. I would like to go live with this site, but I really need to have the contact form working. Thanks as always for the help.
Will do – just responded to your ticket earlier today 
Hey Nectar. I just updated the ticket. Everything is working fine now. Thanks again for the awesome support. 
You’re very welcome 
I it east to change the size of the header (height) and logo position (to center) when viewing in portrait on a mobile device…or does this kind of change involve changing code? Thanks!
Hey akaalvin,
it would just require some custom css – here’s a resource on how to alter the mobile header size too http://themenectar.ticksy.com/ticket/46745/search/ 
Cheers
