Hi ThemeNectar,
A client is having issues with their Salient purchase. According to website speed test, it would seem that all of our Nectar Slide Video backgrounds are being loaded twice. As videos are huge bandwidth hogs already, this is leading to a site that’s twice as large as it should be.
Hey SmithandTeam,
can you please share the URL of your clients site so I could take a look?
Just wanted to say that when multilingual the searcher is showing every language results. And they all have the subtitle (eg: page) in the current language so they all look the same.
Hey BulmaStudio, what plugin are you using for multilingual?
Hi – I’d like to add some padding to the top of my featured images on my portfolio page just to give some more space between each row.
http://www.mutual125.com/stories/I can’t however find the best way to do this. Any thoughts? Thanks!
Hey tonypantello,
Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
html body .portfolio-items .col {
margin-bottom: 40px !important;
}
Cheers
Hi,
Any plans to include RTL support in the upcoming release?
Thanks!
Hey WebScope! There’s already RTL support as of a couple updates ago 
Thanks!!!
You’re welcome
I just installed Salient and I’m having difficulty setting up my portfolio page. I don’t appear to have the option to turn on the “Gallery Slider” I don’t see the “project configuration” option at all for that. I’m running WordPress 3.9.2.
Hey djferens,
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.
Cheers
The boxed columns are nice, but I don’t want the jumpy rollover effect. I’ve looked through most files but can’t seem to find where the code is for this rollover effect. Any pointers?
Hey pinkgerbil, add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
body .col.boxed, body .wpb_column.boxed {
top: 0!important;
box-shadow: none!important;
}
Thanks!
You’re welcome

Hey tiyo!
Have you tested with another theme to ensure this issue with the json parsing is Salient specific?
Cheers
yes, its salient specific parsing issue. pls help.
Please open a ticket in regards then with your admin credentials so I can take a look http://themenectar.ticksy.com/
Hi
Is it possible to have some pages full width mode and some pages boxed mode?
Thanks
Also…
If I have approx 20 images is there any way to add them to a gallery style portfolio or will all images need to be uploaded one at a time.
I have 30 different galleries (portfolios) I need to add and adding individually will be time consuming.
Hey PLMMat,
1. Unfortunately that’s not possible as of now and would require custom development
2. You can use the visual composer Image Gallery element with the portfolio style if you’re just looking for a lightbox type portfolio
Cheers
Just one quick question, when i set up Nectar slider to fade transition, whenever i re-size the window it shows partial slides and then when i put back to full window size slider goes black and have to be refreshed in order to play again. Is this common?
Hi thank you for fast response. Yes i can also see it on the demo. Same problem. But it seems problem is only with google chrome. With Firefox, doesnt do this. Do you maybe think it has to do with some update or someone else has same problem with chrome?
Hey
What OS/version of the browser are you seeing this on? So far I’ve attempted on Windows & Mac but have been unsuccessful
hello again it is windows 7 and google chrome 36.0.1985.143
Thanks for the additional info – can you share your URL just so I can check as well?
Of course, it is still test version and they are not sure yet about the content and anything but i am trying to push salient because i believe it is the best template ever! http://monten.di-log.com i am sure i messed up something …
let me know if you have any news regarding this and then, another problem is that on 2 sites where i am administrator pins on the map are lost… used to be there but neither me or my client can see them anymore
Hey again!
1. The only way I can get this to occur is by using the maximize/minimize button – dragging the browser doesn’t cause this, is that what you’re experiencing too?
2. Google made a slight change to their maps API so I needed to update the theme to get the markers to show again – the update was released yesterday
Wow you are the best support thanks
1. Yes that is exactly what happens, when maximize/minimize!
2. Good i will update now
Thanks again and please let me know if you get any solution for 1.
I think I’ve found the issue – if you can open a ticket in regards with your login credentials I’d be glad to apply it to your setup prior to the next update http://themenectar.ticksy.com/
Hi there,
I am trying to remove my header on a portfolio page so I can use a full screen nectar slider. I have set the header to transparent but the page header for the title of the portfolio piece is still there. How do I remove this so the nectar slider is full screen? Thanks Simon
Hey Simon,
As of now this would require some custom development since css alone won’t be enough to (there’s scripting logic in place within the slider file that would also need to be altered)
Cheers
Hi Salient-Team,
first of all this is a really great theme! One of the best i’ve worked with
I still have some questions:
1. Is it possible to remove the header menu completely with css (if i add a “blank” menu i still get the navigation icon on mobile devices)
2. Is it possible to keep the background behind the logo and menu transparent, when the user starts scrolling?
thanks again!
Hey Knusperschnitzel!
1. Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:body header#top #toggle-nav {
display: none!important;
}
2. Open the init.js file located in the js folder and delete this line:
$('#header-outer').removeClass('transparent');
Cheers
Hi!
I just opened up a new ticket as my portfolio is showing very odd (as thin grey lines).
Please get to me as soon as you can
Thanks.
Hey Paul, will do
hello… I have installed the theme and I can find all my css except one… my website location is http://localhost/mysite/ all my css path in firebug are in http://localhost/mysite/wp-content/themes/salient/style.ccs (for example) but one css path is http://localhost/mysite/ , can you please tell me how to find it in my website tree? thanks
Hey mvacelet,
What css file can’t you find? Are you referring to a custom css file outside of the theme itself or are you trying to locate a specific stylesheet within the theme?
Cheers
it’s a theme css, I need to modify the following code header#top nav > ul > li > a, header#top #logo, .sf-sub-indicator [class^=”icon-”], .sf-sub-indicator [class*=” icon-”], header#top nav ul #search-btn a span, header#top #toggle-nav i, header#top #toggle-nav i, header#top #mobile-cart-link i, #header-outer .cart-menu .cart-icon-wrap .icon-salient-cart, #search-outer #search input[type=”text”], #search-outer #search #close a span { color: #ffffff !important; } I need to change the” header#top #toggle-nav i” color, how can i do it? by the admin? or where is the css? thanks
That’s the dynamic css which lives in the colors.php file in the css folder
Hi, love this theme! – www.boltsecuring.com
Hey, thanks for sharing!
Cheers
Hi.ThemeNectar I have bought your WordPress theme one year ago, this theme is very beautiful, I like it very much.Today, I re download the compressed package, I see the inside of the content is updated many, there is a mall site, but now I reinstall the theme has encountered a problem,When I upload salient.zip (5.67 MB), wodpress suggested I compression package file is too large can not upload, then I use FTP to extract the file upload to the theme directory, when I enable the theme, Webpage doesn’t even work. nothing read out.Plesase help me, WordPress version:wordpress-3.9-zh_CN Thank you!
Hey lwfevip!
If you’re getting a blank page after activating the theme then your server is most likely running out of memory – I would reach out to your hosting company and ask if they can up PHP’s max memory limit if it’s set low
Cheers
Hi, this is a great theme thank you. i’m just having some trouble with the sliders (both home and nectar).
For some reason images keep getting cut off and do not seem to be resized to fit the users screen. Example, I upload an image 1920×508 and allow for a flexible height. I would assume this means that the image is resized down from 1920 to fit the users screen width proportionally?
The odd thing is when I do this I only see part of the image, it seems it is blown up to be larger than it actually is. Any ideas? Thanks.
http://192.185.162.46/~dyersrod/Hey jadecreative!
when using the flexible slider height option you need to set the sliders height equal to how tall your image would be at 1600px wide
Chees
Thanks for the quick reply. I tried that, it does look better but still cuts off the top and a little on the sides. Any other ideas? I’m using version 4.0.3. Thanks.
Thanks for pointing that out – that’s actually bug that occurs when the header resize is disabled, to sort it before the next release on your end enter this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
.parallax_slider_outer.first-section {
margin-top: 0 !important;
}
Ok I have to say, this support is fantastic. Not only have you provided a great theme but the only minor issue we had has been resolved quickly. I’m very pleased and impressed, thank you.
You’re very welcome!
Cheers
I used the css code to center the navigation but I’m left with a huge padding under the menu, and I just can’t seem to figure it out and was wondering if you can help me get rid/modify the amount of padding under. Here’s the test site:
http://test2014.starpointproperties.comThank you.
Hey bryvntxiii, try adding this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:
body header#top nav > ul > li > a {
padding-bottom: 15px!important;
}
@media and only screen and (max-width: 1000px) {
body #header-space {
height: 228px!important;
}
}
Cheers
It worked, thanks!
You accidentally pasted in the pre tags with the snippet – please remove them and it will go through
Thank you so much, and so fast too! Another thing, I hope it’s not too much but is it possible to have two logos on top, one aligned to the right and one to the left? Thanks again!
You’re welcome
That would actually require modding the header.php to accommodate a second logo unfortunately css alone couldn’t provide a good solution
Hi, I was wondering if you can help me with reducing the space between the logo and the navigation menu on the same website. Thank you so much in advance!
Add this into the custom css box
#header-outer img {
margin-bottom: 0!important;
}
Thank you so much!
Sorry to keep bugging, but can you please help me with getting rid of the space/padding to the left (also the right end) of the logo?
You’re welcome
I think I missed the answer for getting rid of left/right padding of header logo?
#header-outer .container {
max-width: 100%!important;
}
Hi there – is this theme a white label?
Hey netclick,
You’re allowed to change the name of Salient wherever you want in the theme options/admin but by default it’s not unbranded
Hi,
Once again thanks for the great theme. I saw there is new update to 4.5.2
I have the following question – always is nice to get updates, but I have custom code on few of the php files of the theme – functions.php, page,php, single.php etc. After each update I need to place again this custom code. Is it possible to save all this work?
Hey plgospodinov!
If you’re modding theme files you should do so in a child theme so that those files will persist through theme updates
The “back to all” button on portfolio items are linking to themselves and not back to the portfolio page. Please help.
Hey jstamb, make sure you have the main portfolio URL set in the portfolio tab of your theme options panel
I figured it out shortly after posting this…oops. Thank you for your quick response though!
You’re welcome
Cheers!
