Hey rebelle143!

Unfortunately this require some custom development as of now – but functionality like this is on the to-do list

Hey bluehaus!

The fade effect was just added in v 4.5 of the theme – if you’re already on that you can find the option by editing the nectar slider element inside of visual composer

Cheers

lol How did I miss that??! sheesh. Thx! Sorry for the stupid question.

No worries! Cheers

Hey ivory2345, the WooCommerce setup seen on the demo is made from importing the WooCommerce dummy data file included with the plugin itself: http://docs.woothemes.com/document/importing-woocommerce-dummy-data/ once you’ve added that you can choose your layout for fullwidth/sidebar in the WooCommerce options tab in the Salient options panel

Hey teemuluo,

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

body #portfolio-filters-inline .container > ul li#sort-label {
  font-size: 16px!important;
}

Cheers

Thanks again. Sunny Regards, Teemu

You’re welcome

Hey white29!

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

.single-portfolio #page-header-bg .span_6 h1 {
  display: none!important;
}

2. The default project size for masonry items is 500×500 – if you wish to alter that you’d need to do so in the functions.php file and then regenerate your thumbnails.

3. Css would indeed be a good option. In the text tab on your editor you’d add a class like

<a href="" class="cool-color">link</a>

and then in the css box add

html body .cool-color {
 color: #000!important;
}

4.

html body, html body p {
  color: #000;
}

5. Actually the demo uses videos around 20-30mb

6. This would indeed require some custom html as of now – but i’ve noted the idea. Also you could just use a plugin like https://wordpress.org/plugins/social-media-widget/

7.The second line of text only comes when using the ascend skin and the ajax search is turned off. To alter the starting text you’d need to edit the search-form.php file

8. Are you referring to the loading animation?

Cheers

Hey jeremydarko!

There’s some unclosed html markup in your post which could’ve occurred if you pasted it in from somewhere else. Switch into the text tab on your editor and remove any div tags that you come across

Thanks so much for your assistance!

You’re very welcome

You’re welcome

The shortcodes are formated in the shortcode-processing.php file located in the nectar/tinymce directory – could you elaborate a little more as to how the formatting changed so I can assist?

Cheers

perfect! not sure how i missed that file. all is formatted and working like it should. much appreciated, as always

You’re very welcome

Thanks BandFM!

Unfortunately there’s no carousel option for recent posts yet like there is for recent projects, but it’s already an item on the to-do list

Beautiful! If you guys do that! Your theme will be the champion of champions! Thanks

Another thing I would suggest if you can, you should add options to center the logo/title in the header and also the main navigation, just a suggestion. Thank you again! Keep up the good work!

Thanks a lot & I appreciate the additional suggestion

Hey ncvdv,

1. The display of portfolio items/posts on that page was created using the portfolio element – some of the projects in it were just using the external url option to link them to blog posts instead of portfolio items. Unfortunately this would be the only way to get that look as of now since there’s no default functionality to display blog posts automatically with portfolio styling yet.

2. That’s a standard blog post with the ascend skin selected in the general settings tab of the Salient options panel & the fullscreen header selected in the blog options tab

Cheers

You’re a champ ty xxxxx

Oh also, can you tell my why the nectar slider isnt sliding? The “Home” slider in admin DOES slide, but it breaks styling on the below content blocks so have used nectar slider on home..have 2 slides but only one shows! both set correctly!

Hey again!

It appears your Nectar Slider has no autorotation set and also the arrows, pagination bullets and desktop swipe off. So essentially there’s no way to control it – edit the Nectar Slider element in your page builder and turn on one or a combination of those items and it should be fine

Hello

Assuming you don’t want to import the dummy data file to get all the layouts from the demo to learn from/use, it would be highly recommended that you go through at least some of the video tutorials to get a better grip on how to build with Salient. The home templates are not the correct way to place a Nectar Slider & none of those templates in the page attributes box will reflect any of the layouts from the Ascend demo – those templates are just quick ways to create basic home pages seen on the original demo and make use of the Home Slider not the Nectar Slider. All of the newer demos use the page builder (visual composer) or shortcodes to place the various theme elements.

Also, in regards to the segment you’ve pasted from the user guide – there’s bold text directly under that which states “For detailed guides on using both of these sliders please refer to video tutorial series here“

Thanks ImageResult!

You can modify the image sizes in the functions.php – just search for “portfolio-thumb” to end up at the right line to change. Once you’ve modified that just regenerate your images in order to have the sizes created. https://wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/

Cheers

Thanks mate! Now it’s awesome.

Good to hear

Please see my response to your previous comment in regards

Hey iclclifetv,

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. Just saw this was already answered. Missed it yesterday. Even gave a link for implementing the Revolution Slider.

Thanks for your patience.

Hey USEYOURHEAD, glad you found the answer!

Cheers

Hey kylepink,

For the fade transition you’re going to want to alter the line:

 speed: 900,

– the one you listed is actually for the slide transition only

Hey ajkhansa,

1. I would need to log in and check out your page since you should indeed be able to freely move the elements around to you liking. Could you open a ticket in regards: http://themenectar.ticksy.com/

2. The global CTA is configured from the Salient options panel in the Call to action section – but it appears you don’t have that active on the page. The blue link at the bottom of your page is coming from the column link field for the full width column inside of your row

Cheers

Hey again,

Yes – you don’t have to use the portfolio in masonry if you’re going to have external link projects. The only thing is the posts won’t be populated automatically and you’d need to add them in as you desired.

Cheers

Ok thats great, but just to clarify, i was talking about the ‘Blog recent posts’ not to be styled like Masonry, i wasnt talking about the portfollio. I want the ‘Blog’ to be styled like the portfolio thumbnails on homepage.

Basically, I want to be able to have big image thumbnails of recent posts from the blog on the homepage. Thats it. I hope this is clear & sorry for the back and forth, blogging will be important for the site i need.

Thank you for your time!

Hey again!

To clarify further – the actual blog or recent post elements can only be displayed in the actual blog styles available if you want the posts to be generated automatically. The ascend demo homepage shows some featured posts in a portfolio element in which the projects that serve as the posts are using an external link option that leads to the post. Therefore if you want to display posts in any of the portfolio styles you’d need to make projects for them as you desire – the process would be manual

Thanks so much cassioetc!

Unfortunately there is no PSD available since all of the themes elements/design is css based without images – just taking a screenshot of the demo itself would prove almost as useful.

Cheers

Hey findley75494, yes but it would require the use of a plugin such as http://wordpress.org/plugins/page-scroll-to-id/

Cheers

Very cool. Thanks for the quick response.

You’re welcome
