Hello,
want to buy the salient theme, and have a question.
I can put youtube videos as background video ???
Thank you very much,
good theme
Hey erfekto!
you can have a youtube video as a full width video in a row, but it can’t be the BG of the row in the sense that you could overlay content on top of it.
Thanks for responding.
one more thing
I can then only use video background if they are inserted in the html 5 with the tag <video>, ok ??
Thanks
Yes – you can see how it works from this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FLU9Pxo_RD8&list=PLL7Ay33CTsIAVMPtw3KPsAwDzr_XoVLeq&index=9
Hey Bud,
Is there a 500px icon in the icon short-codes, I can’t see for looking ???
If not how easy would it be to get one added please?
Cheers Rich
Hey – it would accomplished with css, what style icon are you using?
I think it was steady icons, I added my others manually in the header file
I was actually referring to the icon style – e.g. “Large”, “Large Alt” etc
Sorry small please
They are steady icons, but it appears steady icons don’t have a 500px icon on there website, here is the manual code I am adding to header.php for dribbble…
<a style="padding-bottom: 9px !important; padding-right: 5px !important; padding-left: 8px !important;" target="_blank" href="https://dribbble.com/richpearsonwd"><i style="color: #000 !important; font-size: 18px !important; line-height: 25px!important;" class="icon-default-style icon-dribbble" /> </a>
this is all wrapped in an list tag
Sorry I misunderstood your initial question – adding that icon since it doesn’t exist in any of the sets would require adding it to one of the existing sets if you have an svg by using https://icomoon.io/ or by just using an img 
That’s ok bud, I’m not understanding though as icomoon doesn’t appear in the salient shortcodes ???
I have an .svg of 500px icon, how do I get that from icomoon to salient – confused sorry?
I have generated the fonts for it, so what now lol – sorry
You have to place them in the fonts directory, then add this into the theme via font face (look at how i’m loading steadysets at the bottom of the style.css). Then you’ll be able to call the icon through HTML, however it won’t appear in the shortcodes
hello
what font did you use in ascend demo ? 
Hey akramkafina! See this in regards: 
thank you so much
really amazing theme :))))
You’re welcome 
Hello,
I’m using woocommerce and I want to ask, what should I use to make this: (it’s an e.g.) [URL=http://imageshack.com/f/kmpl1Aigp][IMG]http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/150x100q90/742/pl1Aig.png[/IMG][/URL]
I want in category, to have more option to change a product. What plugin should I use, please help me.
Thank you !
Hey sabinnitu!
I’m not aware of a specific plugin that would allow for that in extending WooCommerce – have you tried to pose this on the WooCommerce forums to see if some community members might have experiencing with one?
Cheers
Hi Just installed bwp-minify which is working great however it has altered the appearance of the icons. Please see the contact icon on http://www.yourpoweruk.com/solar-pv-for-leased-properties Can you advise on how to fix? The speed is a lot better, but the client’s not happy with this error. Cheers Thomas
Hey thomasheiser77!
You can sort that by removing font awesome from the list of css files to get combined: http://i.imgur.com/1ZAJwZc.png 
Cheers
Can I alter the white background colour on the portfolio page? I can change the header and footer colour but I’m unsure how to change the page background from white.
Hey spdobson,
You can use the Visual Composer row background color choice in combination with the full with background row type to handle that – however if you want it to be global change on your site it can also be handled with css 
Cheers
where do I access the Visual Composer row background colour choice? Thanks
Please see this in regards

Hiya,
I have the following custom css for changing the caption and headline in the nectar slider on the mobile, however whatever I try the headline won’t change size on the mobile, I am trying to get the .swiper-slide .content h2 down to 10px.
@media only screen and (max-width : 690px) {
html body .nectar-slider-wrap[data-full-width="true"][data-fullscreen="false"] .swiper-slide .content h2 { font-size: 10px !important; line-height: 30px!important;}
.homecaption {color: #333333; font-family: "Courier-Std","freight-text-pro",'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif!important; font-size: 30px; padding-top: 0px; text-decoration: underline; line-height: 1;}
}
Hey Rich,
Could you let me know which URL this is for again so I can inspect the code?
Cheers
yes sorry it’s http://richpearson.co.uk
Add this:
html body .nectar-slider-wrap[data-fullscreen="true"] .swiper-slide .content h2 {
font-size: 10px !important;
line-height: 30px!important;
}
Hi,
Do you know why the boxed layout would be doing this in FF? I didn’t modify any of the core files or styles.
Hey ace2296,
could you please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can take a further look? http://themenectar.ticksy.com/
done 
Thanks! What’s the ticket ID?
Thank you 
Hi there, i’m thinking of purchasing this theme. Is there demo content?
Thanks Robelen
Hey Robelen, yes – there’s dummy data files for each of the three live demos.
Cheers
Hey,
Fantastic Theme. Only recently i have noticed my markers on my maps have dropped off. All the information is correct and hasn’t changed. Any help would be great. Link to the effected page can be found below.
http://northernneuro.com.au/consulting-locations/Hey smalldogdesign! If you update to the most recent release 4.5.22 that’ll be resolved 
Thanks
Did that and still no luck? Any suggestions?
Unfortunately it seems you have a coming soon page active, could you allow me to bypass that so I could check it out?
Helllo!
First of all, great work on the theme.
I’m wondering, when viewing the nectar slider on a mobile device, the text inside (on top of the image) becomes really small – almost unreadable. Also, the two action buttons become tiny too, I’d rather have them larger and underneath eachother. Is this possible at all?
Thanks airviper!
The text sizes scales down proportional to the rest of the slider to ensure no clipping on the image. If you want to change it you just need to look for these rules in the mobile viewport in the responsive.css stylesheet located in the css folder.
body .swiper-slide .content h2 body .swiper-slide .content p body .swiper-slide .button a
Cheers
Thank you for your info!!
But updating the css in those classes didn’t work..
I checked the CSS data using the inspector to see where it’s pulling the rules from and found this:
@media only screen and (max-width: 690px) .nectar-slider-wrapdata-full-width=”true” .swiper-slide .content h2,
font-size: 15px!important; line-height: 21px!important;
But I wasn’t able to find these rules in responsive.css.
The site is located on www.conservision.org/dev for your reference.
Thanks heaps in advance.
Dont worry, found it! It’s in the custom.php file
Hey again!
It would seem the rules on lines 3283 & 3307 of that file is the ones overwriting it since you’re using the fullscreen slider 
Cheers
Hi – I’ve been experiencing some issues with viewing a page on my site in safari on an iPad. It initially loads with this error and after refreshing it is resolved. Can’t replicate in other browsers. See images below. The page is mutual125.com/vote. Thoughts?

Normal http://www.mutual125.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/image1.jpg
Hey tonypantello!
What version of the iPad are you using? From the looks of your screenshot, it looks like the main stylesheet is somehow failing to load
Cheers
I am using an iPad air, version 7.0.4 – any thoughts/ideas to get it to load? Thanks
Thanks for the additional info – could you also confirm whether or not this occurs on any of the demos for you?
Hello,
I’m having some trouble with my buttons while on Ascend mode. When they are set to “transparent and color on hover”, they stay colored in after you hover. You can view what I’m talking about on the buttons on my first image “learn more” and “view portfolio” at http://worldwide-design.com/. Let me know your thoughts.
Thank you, Nick
Hey Nick!
Are you on v4.5.22?
Cheers
That was it. Thanks!
You’re welcome 
Hey Nectar,
When I view the mobile website, my author line in blog posts disappears. How can I get it to show?
Thanks!
Hey deezydev!
Which blog layout are you using – is there anyway you could share the URL so I can take a look?
Cheers
How can I control the movement of the slider header and caption text?
I am interested in delaying the slide overlay text …. perhaps fading in from the left, preferably with the nectar slider or the home slider.
I have searched the everywhere for this info but no luck.
Hey marklove,
That would need to be altered in the nectar-slider.js file located in the js folder – search for “captionTransition” to end up at the relevant section
Cheers
Thank you. I’ll check it out.
You’re welcome 
Greetings. I’m interested in your theme (Salient) and I have a several questions:
1. Your page builder is same as Visual Composer Builder? Btw, the newest version of Visual Composer now includes FRONTEND editor, is it available in SALIENT?
2. If I’ll buy the Ultimate Addons for Visual Composer, is it compatible with your theme?
3. Also I’m Interested if your theme is compatible with Slider Revolution Responsive?
Hope you will answer on my questions as soon as possible, because I like your theme very much. Thanks and looking forward.
Hey molotovv,
1. There’s no frontend editor in the Salient VC since some of the custom elements wouldn’t work good with that
2. Yes, but there might be styling conflicts since a bunch of the elements in that are also in Salient’s VC
3. Yes but if you need use the slide in a full width layout, you’d need to call it through a template file for it to work correctly
Cheers
TWO THINGS that should be addressed: (1) On Mobile Devices, can you have the navigation bar as a sticky bar so it will follow the user as they scroll down the page? it does this on the desktop version, please have it on the mobile (responsive) version. (2) Can you create/add a RANDOMIZE option for the ‘Nectar Portfolio’ shortcodes? It would help alot if we can randomize the selection instead of it always being the same content if we use the portfolio on many pages without the filter.
Hey maijintheartist,
1. Add this into your custom css box located in the Salient options panel:
@media only screen and (min-width : 1px) and (max-width : 1000px) {
body #header-space {
height: 56px!important;
display: block!important;
}
body #header-outer {
position: fixed !important;
}
#mobile-menu {
position: fixed!important;
top: 52px!important;
width: 100%!important;
}
}
2. That’s an item already on the wishlist 
Cheers
Also the masonry portfolio is slightly flawed because no matter how many columns i use it ALWAYS has a white space which looks like a missing image. can you clean up the code for the masonry style portfolio so we can avoid the “missing space look”. i noticed it only happens on smaller screens on the desktop. www.maijintheartist.com/art
SECONDLY, i added the CSS code you recommended in the salient options panel. and not the navigation bar is COMPLETELY gone when viewed on the mobile device. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/53748863/dell/Screenshot_2014-09-07-23-41-40.png it only shows up now when i scroll down alot. i need to be there as soon as i hit the page but then become sticky and follow the user as they scroll down the page…please check on your mobile device to see what i mean. its gone when you load up the page, but it comes back only when i scroll down half the page. www.maijintheartist.com
please address this with an updated…working code.
Hey again,
1. That’s not occurring because of messy code, it’s because the column number is dynamic changing from 5 to 1 based on the screen width. You can set the option for “Constrain max columns to 4” which will make it always use the same column number on all desktop displays, making it much easier to order projects with sizes that’ll work without spaces. You can use this plugin to rearrange projects easily as well: https://wordpress.org/plugins/intuitive-custom-post-order/
2. Sorry, there was no way to know you were using a secondary navigation since I didn’t have your URL 
@media only screen and (min-width : 1px) and (max-width : 1000px) {
body[data-smooth-scrolling="1"], html body {
transform: inherit !important;
}
body #header-space {
height: 175px!important;
display: block!important;
}
body #header-outer[data-using-secondary="1"] {
position: fixed !important;
top: 106px !important;
transform: inherit !important;
z-index: 1000000;
}
body #header-secondary-outer {
position: fixed !important;
top: 0 !important;
}
#mobile-menu {
position: fixed!important;
top: 175px!important;
width: 100%!important;
}
}
Hello,
Is it possible to use products as portfolio items?
Alternatively slide products similar to “clients” feature or like portfolio (last section) here: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-frostwave/home-basic/
Thank you again!
Hey YoZeeto,
unfortunately not yet – but new WooCommerce design options/layouts are on the to-do list 
Cheers
Hi Team, I’ve added slides to my Nectar Slider however the slider is not rolling through the slides, rather the first slide just remains. Can you please assist? Thank you, Jessica
Hey Jessica!
Have you added an auto rotate number into that field on the slider element?
Cheers
Hey!
I can’t seem to find how to add ‘Single Image’ to a page… It’s already on some of the templates but doesn’t appear in the visual composer. Is it somewhere else?
Thanks
Mat
Hey Mat!
It should show in Visual Composer as an element – if you can’t see it could you please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can take a look at what’s going on
themenectar.ticksy.com/
Cheers
Thanks for your swift response, but all sorted now, I hadn’t got all the options turned on in the settings (Durrrr… New to wordpress! Ha).
No worries!
