Hey, ThemeNectar how’s it going? Could you please guide me on how to center an image with Css animation? I used Center HTML tags and it did not work. Can you please guide me thru the process?
Hey jeremydarko!
You should be good by checking the box for “Centered Content Alignment” on your column which holds the image with animation 
Cheers
I already did but it’s aligned to the far left and Not centered the icon not the text
The icon is aligned the the far left & the text is centered even when I checked that box
Hey again,
The text with icon is different than centering an image – if you’re only trying to have one text with icon element on a row you might as well skip using that element and just using a heading tag with icon shortcode in a text block
Cheers
Hi, how can i restore default header setting in the page which has been already built (the header settings were define only for that particular page, i didn’t change it for whole site)? It doesn’t work even when I leave blank all the fields in the page header section. It’s always give me white space below the navigation bar. Thanks
Hey witula,
anyway could you share the page URL so I can see what’s setting that space?
Cheers
My page url: http://test.firma-sys.pl/
Make sure that in your page header settings the background color is removed and not just set to white – also check the fields to ensure no extra spaces are in them. If you’ve done so and can’t get it to go away please open a ticket in regards with your credentials so I can check it out http://themenectar.ticksy.com/
Hi! First of all, love the theme. For some reason the Home slider does not load anything for me in Chrome (which is up-to-date at 36.0.1985.143 m), but it works great in other browsers. This is my second fresh installation of WP and Salient without any extra plugins. Just bought the theme a few days ago. I have dummy data loaded but haven’t done much else with the site yet. http://www.therogersagency.com/newsite. I have a ticket open for this: #268721. Thanks in advance for your help!
Hey jusdog83!
You just need to supply a background image for the first slide and it should load in on all browsers
Cheers
Hi,
Hi,
I’ve bought your theme, a regular license, and I’m building my own site with it.
I’d like to offer your theme to my client, and here rises a question concerning the regular license: Is it allowed to build a functional demo site, a draft, using Salient (or another theme) in order to show it to a client, to sell the idea, and ask the client’s approval, before actually purchasing a license?
Well, I asked this from the Envato Support. I’m waiting for their answer. Anyway, I guess, I’ll be buying a second Salient license soon.
Hey teemuluo!
One license is only meant to be used on one live site
Cheers
Okay, thanks. I’ll buy another license.
You’re welcome
I just bought another regular license. Thank you.
Awesome to hear!
Cheers
FYI, I got an answer from the Envato Support some time ago: “You’re welcome to work on the site using a temporary development server before moving it onto a live/production server. Once the site is live, just be sure to remove the theme from the development server. – If the item required you to register the license/url, you may want to check with the author if this can be reset.”
Thanks for the additional info regarding their response
I have disabled Ajax transitions in Salient admin but the effect remains. have emptied cash too
new.fotabrollop.se
What’s wrong?
It got switched off eventually. Browser caching… ?
Hey fredrics1! Yeah, it sounds like it was browser caching
Hi guys,
Loving the look of this theme. Before I purchase can you please tell me if it’s possible to create 100% full width content sections in the portfolio section to look similar to this http://tinyurl.com/knlhccy ?
Cheers
Hey npboy99!
For some reason that URL is leading to a 404 – can you try to add it again?
Cheers
No problem, well I just went ahead and purchased your theme, its looking awesome – nice job!
Thanks a lot!
Cheers
Hi there,
Regarding your previous comment:
“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”
I’m also having the same problem. What is the recommended memory for this theme?? I am running it on a 512MB cloud server, that should be enough to run 5 pages at least.
Regards,
Hakan
Hey Hakan! I wasn’t referring to the server’s RAM itself but rather the memory allocated to PHP. You can ask your hosting company what that’s at by default and increase it if you’re running out
Hi,
I have bumped the php.ini memory_limit from 128MB to 256MB, I’ve still got the same problem. Looking at the PHP logs I get the following:
Thu Aug 21 21:04:51 2014 [client 127.13.49.129] PHP Fatal error: Call to a member function init() on a non-object in /<path -to-wp-themes>/themes/salient/functions.php on line 685, referer: https://<my-domain>/wp-admin/themes.php
Does this shed any light?
Thanks, Hakan
Hey again! 128MB is actually more than enough so that wasn’t the issue (I assume you might’ve only had only around 32mb allocated) – judging from that error you’re experiencing it’s probably due to some security settings on your server. Try opening your js_composer.php file located in wpbakery / js_composer and changing this line:
if (!defined('VC_THEME_DIR')) define('VC_THEME_DIR', get_theme_root());
to this:
if (!defined('VC_THEME_DIR')) define('VC_THEME_DIR', mb_strcut(get_theme_root(), 1));
I’ve tried that, still the same result and error. I’ve tried other themeforest themes (such as Incarnation) to see if the problem is with my server, and they work fine on the same server.
At this point I would need to take a look at the setup since this is not a known issue – please open a private ticket with your admin credentials so I can check things out: themenectar.ticksy.com
Hey!
Use this
#loginpanel {
z-index: 1000000!important;
}
Thank you so much
You’re welcome
Hello!
I cannot figure out how to change the colour of the text on the Testimonial slider. I noticed you made it white on the demo version, which is what I want to do.
Thanks!
Hey PointPerGame!
You can change it to white by selecting “light” for the text color on the row the testimonial element sits in
Hey Phil!
Hope you doing fine man. I have a quick question regarding the Portfolio. When sorting the Portfolio, it says “Sort Portfolio” and then it has all the categories and what not. Is it possible to rename the “Sort Portfolio” to “Sort Businesses”?
Thanks!

Hey Gareth!
You can change this with the “Custom Portfolio Page Sortable Text” field in the portfolio options tab in the Salient options panel
Cheers
Hi, How to Add a border to Product Image on shop page? Thanks in advance!
Hey luci30,
Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
.woocommerce ul.products li.product a img, .woocommerce-page ul.products li.product a img {
border: 2px solid #000;
}
Cheers!
Hello! Love the theme!
It looks like the marker support for the map/contact page has stopped working. Not sure why – I haven’t made any changes to that section. But for some reason, the marker isn’t appearing anymore. Here’s the page:
http://www.austinchristmascards.com/contactAll the map info in the settings and the map insert on that page have the marker set to:
30.224185|-97.953528|Our awesome location
which should drop it right on that map.
Looking at the code, it should be appearing. Here’s the relevant code from the browser:
<div id="map_53f5fdcc138e3" style="height: 500px;" class="nectar-google-map" data-greyscale="1" data-extra-color="#009eed" data-enable-animation="false" data-enable-zoom="1" data-zoom-level="12" data-center-lat="30.245573" data-center-lng="-97.801495" data-marker-img="https://austinchristmascards.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/intro-graphic4.png" /><div class="map_53f5fdcc138e3 map-marker-list"><div class="map-marker" data-lat="30.224185" data-lng="-97.953528" data-mapinfo="Our awesome location" /> Any thoughts?</div>
Hey EricDoggett, this was fixed in yesterdays update (v4.5.21) – Google made a slight change to their API which required the theme to be updated
Thanks for the quick reply! It looks like this still isn’t working, though. I’m on a child theme of 4.5.21 (according to the theme details panel in WP). I also tried using the theme without the child theme: http://austinchristmascards.com/contact/
Hey again! I’m still seeing your map.js file as the old version – please ensure that the contents of that match the latest release. I just downloaded the version on TF again to verify that it’s the correct and working code
Thanks – fixed now! I just replaced that individual file. Odd though how that file didn’t get updated when I copied the new theme folder over..
That is odd but glad to hear you got it
Hi,
My map marker was working fine on the contact page but has now gone missing. No settings have been changed. Tis is the page http://www.motivmedia.tv/image-technique/contact/
Please advise.
Thanks,
Rory
Hey Rory,
Please update to the latest version to get the fix for that – v4.5.21 sorted it which was released yesterday
Cheers
Could you possibly tell me which files I need to update that relate to the map? I tried updating the whole theme but it has changed created some unwanted changes to my design for some reason.
Thanks
You could update js/map.js, functions.php and nectar/tinymce/nectar-gmap.php
Hi,
Thanks for the response.
I changed the functions.php and map.js files
No sign of the other file – nectar/tinymce/nectar-gmap.php in the documentation
Unfortunately all I get is a black box where the map should be
My apologies, the file is actually located at:
nectar/nectar-vc-addons/vc_templates/nectar-gmap.php
Hi,
I’d like to have a subtle pattern (i.e. a repeating image) behind my blog page. How could I do it?
I have a Blog page and the Blog element on a row. I tried to edit the row of Blog element: I added a background image and chose ‘Background Repeat’. Yet nothing happened. I didn’t see the image. What did I do wrong?
Kind Regards, Teemu
Hey Teemu!
Anyway you could share the URL of the page where it didn’t apply so I could take a look?
Cheers
Hey,
sure, thank you so much. Here it is: http://puusto.com/blog/Thanks! I can’t see any image getting applied in the code either so could you kindly open a ticket in regards with you admin credentials so I can check out the backend setup? http://themenectar.ticksy.com/
Cheers
That worked, thank you again.
You’re welcome
Hi i’m trying to create 2 different menus for the homepage and pages other than the homepage but having problems. I’ve followed the instructions here: http://themenectar.ticksy.com/ticket/132615/search/ I can’t get the homepage to show the menu, but my other pages show the 2nd menu. From what I can see when I search the homepage, the menu is there but just not visible. Would you know why this is happening? www.nelsontai.com
it looks like my homepage menu went into a div called ‘menu-submenu-container’. no idea how it got there or how i can make the menu appear back
Hey siumaiii!
in this step:
if (is_front_page()) {
wp_nav_menu (array ("theme_location" => "homepage"));
}
else {
wp_nav_menu( array('walker' => new Nectar_Arrow_Walker_Nav_Menu, 'theme_location' => 'top_nav', 'container' => '', 'items_wrap' => '%3$s' ) );
}
The attributes of the wp_nav_menu should still be the same as the other, I was just trying to emphasis the change of the theme_location parameter. So it should look like:
if (is_front_page()) {
wp_nav_menu (array ('walker' => new Nectar_Arrow_Walker_Nav_Menu, "theme_location" => "homepage", 'container' => '', 'items_wrap' => '%3$s' ));
}
else {
wp_nav_menu( array('walker' => new Nectar_Arrow_Walker_Nav_Menu, 'theme_location' => 'top_nav', 'container' => '', 'items_wrap' => '%3$s' ) );
}
Cheers
Thanks for the quick reply! Works perfectly now!
You’re very welcome
Hi, really love the theme, especially it’s highly support of woocommerce! I’m now bulding my on-line shop, it’s amazing! But i have a question here…how to make a drop down list of my product for choosing color? I already set up the attributes but it only shows text but not a drop down list. And how to make a text area for buyers write down their needs?
The product page is here: http://www.nihao.com.tw/shop/nb-amnimal/thanks!
Hey guys,
We’re not able to get Facebook or Twitter login with the ‘Jetpack Comments’ add-on. The support forums are telling me the theme needs to be updated to use the newest comment function.
Here is the link: http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/comment_form
Thanks in advance, great work as ever!
Hey Eastworks!
Salient already uses the latest comment form function – something else must be at play. Anyway you could open a ticket in regards so I can check it out further? http://themenectar.ticksy.com/

Hi ThemeNectar,
it is good to see the theme is still going strong and updates keep on coming. Way to go!
I have a question on implementing a JotForm Shortcode in a Row ( tried text block & even raw html ). It just show the jotform shortcode on the live page instead of actually showing the actual Jotform. I’ve tried the plugins [ Form Generator for Wordpress ] & [ Jotform Integration ]. Contact Form 7 doesn’t play well with my server. Is there a way to make Jotform happen?
Hey ncvdv!
Have you attempted to switch themes for a minute to see if the shortcode will parse to ensure it’s a conflict with Salient?
Cheers
Hi there,
Firstly, this is possibly my favourite Wordpress theme of all time. Great job. I have one request for help. I find that on iPad portrait view there is too much space left and right of the content, and that 2 columns breaks to 1 too early. Is there a way to extend the grid so I can keep 2 columns at iPad portrait size?
Thanks in advance guys. Dave
Hey Dave!
You’d need to modify the media queries in the responsive.css file:
@media only screen and (min-width : 690px) and (max-width : 1000px) { to have a lesser value than 1000px in order to change that
Cheers
Love the theme! Really awesome.
How do I get rid of the white space between 2 elements on a page. Have 2 text boxes that have different background colors and do not want the white space between them. Thanks Shannon
Hey Shannon!
There won’t be able whitespace between columns in the full width content row type, but if you’re not using that you’d need some css to close the gaps. Can you share the page URL so I can take a peek?
Cheers
it is actually the rows not the columns. Thanks
In that case just ensure the rows are set to full width background or full width content for their type – if that’s still not working please share your URL so I can take a peek
that did it. One other question. Want to change the color of the name of the person quoted in the testimonial slider. Different from the quote.
Use this in the custom css box in the Salient options panel:
.light .testimonial_slider blockquote span, body .testimonial_slider blockquote span {
color: #000!important;
}
