hi I set a carousel with team member on it, I set Facebook link on social media part (Twitter,http://twitter.com/xxx, Email,mailto:xx@xxx.com), when I click on Facebook link the Facebook page load in the actual window and open a new window, can you help me o fix this bug thanks.

Hey mvacelet,

could you kindly share your page URL so I can take a look?

Cheers

I update the theme to the last version and it solved the bug!

While on the Portfolio page, on hover on any of the featured images, we have two “buttons” that appear – ‘View Larger’ and ‘More Details’. The ‘View Larger’ is on the left, and ‘More Details’ is to its right.

We want to do the following: 1. Move ‘View Larger’ to the right, while ‘More Details’ moves to its left. 2. Rename ‘View Larger’ to ‘View Portfolio’ 3. The ‘View Portfolio’ button should be a link that when clicked opens in a new tab (directing to a link that has been entered in the page for that portfolio item). 4. The ‘More Details’ will function as is.

Hey xfinia,

1. You’ll have to alter the order of the buttons inside of the nectar/tinymce/shortcode-processing.php file

2. You can use the .po file for that or edit the file listed above

3. You’ll have to modify the file listed above to add target=”_blank” onto the link

HI,

The supplied XML files will not load the dummy content, they are all failing. I’ve tried importing with theme turned off also, any suggestions please?

Hey Studionine,

Are you getting any error being shown upon trying to import it?

Cheers

Hey SebastianThiel,

add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:

@media only screen and (max-width: 690px) {
html #boxed .container-wrap .row > .wpb_row:first-child .nectar-slider-wrap[data-full-width="boxed-full-width"][data-parallax="false"] {
    margin-top: 0 !important;
}
}

Cheers

Fixed. Thank you!

Hi ThemeNectar,

I would like to make the colour of the testimonial’s name/source a darker colour than is currently used in the dark theme. I’ve tried to locate the section of code to do this but I haven’t managed it yet.

Do you have a little snippet of code to overwrite this colour to a black instead?

Many thanks,

David

Hey David,

.testimonial_slider blockquote span,
.testimonial_slider blockquote p,
.testimonial_slider blockquote {
  color: #000!important;
}

Cheers

Hello ThemeNectar,

I seem to be having an issual with the visual editor in wordpress 4, i can create items in rows such as text and images but the images are not showing up, nor it the map on the contact page, can you assist as to what might be causing it?

URL: http://processblack.co.uk/

Thank you in advance PLAYmoreUK

Hey!

I can actually see both of those items loading – what browser are you experiencing those issues on?

I am using Firefox, I’ve since updated Firefox and it seems to have sorted itself out, thanks for the prompt response, simply the best theme ever!

No worries :)

Cheers

On my requests list, did you say the audio player was coming in the next release or is this still on a request list for the future? If so do you know of any plugins or an easy way to embed this type of scenario into salient please?

Cheers Rich

There’s no further integration for audio players coming in the next release, but doing this would require some custom integration since you want it to play in BG and I assume throughout multiple pages.

Cheers

Can I re-address an early post please re the 500px icon I need to add to the header.php file currently i’m using font-awesome icons in there but there isn’t one for 500px, need to find another simple way (prob css) to add one in please

Rich

Hey, please see my post to your previous comment regarding it

Yeah I did thanks and have added a few replies as I have no idea how to implement this within salient :-)

I’ll check on the reply there then :)

Is it possible to change the down arrow on the nectar slider fairly easily? I wondered if the font icons would work here?

The easiest way to change it would be to change the font family of .icon-salient-down-arrow to whatever font you want :)

Ok, I can do that in which file do I need to change it please?

The rule for that is located in the style.css – but an example of how you could change the icon and font family would look like

body .icon-salient-down-arrow {
  font-family:FontAwesome!important;
}
body .icon-salient-down-arrow:before {
    content:"\f02b"!important;
}
Hell TN, thanks for great support and theme. I want to configure masonry w/sidebar blog homepage. There shows 2 blog posts’ excerpts in a row, and im trying to reduce the width of masonry item to show 3 items in a row I edited style.css. Reduced them 46,8% to 30% #post-area.masonry.span_9 .masonry-blog-item { width: 30%; } .masonry-blog-item { width: 30%; } but nothing changed. is it a cache problem or am i doing something wrong? (i have latest wordpress version also W3 total cache plugin)

thanks alot TN, it’s done :) great support

When adding a caption or description to an image why doesn’t it show up?

For instance on the section ‘A Destination’ http://richpearson.co.uk/ the first large image of the guy sitting down has a caption on it, but it doesn’t show up on the small image or the lightbox image?

Rich

You’d need to switch to the text tab or add the image through a text block in VC – you’ll actually see the image appear in the editor with the caption on the bottom

I’m using the single image block in vc – will that not support it then?,

What I would really like to see is that when the image opens in the lightbox a caption can be added to the large blow up image, also be amazing if captions could be overlayed on the smaller images as well, just right now there is no easy way to add or see captions.

Hey again!

1. No, as of now only the default add media button will, so skip using the single image element in VC to get it.

2. This is in item on the wishlist

Since adding

.video-texture { background-color: rgba(207,203,177,0.4)!important;}

for the slider overlay (which works lovely) I get the double logo again on scroll or in responsive mode – any ideas why?

Rich

Hmmm odd one this as its now fixed itself on it’s own ?

Glad to hear :)

Hi Salient,

I would like to reduce the lateral menu spacing between each category product, it is separated by lines but the my menu is very long, I want to reduce it.

http://www.filtrosparaagua.com.mx/categoria-producto/equipo-para-tratamiento-de-aguas/

Thank you Raul

Hey Raul,

If you activate the Ascend skin, one of the changes that will occur is tighter spacing in widgets and sidebar items :)

Cheers

Thank you,

I activated the Ascend skin, in which part can I change the spacing?

Now it show the shop icon, but I don´t need it, how to remove the icon?

Raul

1. You can use this in your custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:


html .ascend #sidebar .widget.widget_categories li, html .ascend #sidebar .widget.widget_pages li, html .ascend #sidebar .widget.widget_nav_menu li, html .ascend #footer-outer .widget.widget_categories li, html .ascend #footer-outer .widget.widget_pages li, html .ascend #footer-outer .widget.widget_nav_menu li {
    padding: 8px 0 !important;
}

2. You can turn off the header cart in your WooCommerce settings in the Salient options panel

Hi there i recently downloaded your theme and am very impressed. I am trying to create a page the will be accesed through the main menu on top. But I cant seem to figure out how to link the page to the menu item? I see portfolio goes to the correct page and all but the new page i made gets the 404 error. I am working offline at the moment but could you run that by me on how to link those pages to the menu item? Thanks!

got it rookie mistake

No worries :)

I have since my previous questions been able to fix all but one issue i am now stuck on trying to get 4 products per row or 5.

I used your reply to a previous post: http://pastebin.com/SgWUGTBQ To make 4 per row with a sidebar.

I’m currently running full width mode w left side bar. Right now I am having the issue where my products are ultimately 4 per row but not sitting flush in a row so one or two end up on a row by themselves, where one sits by itself, but then there’s 2 or 3 rows with 4 in a row.

http://i.imgur.com/EDOI8no.png http://i.imgur.com/OUMRlnr.png

Thanks for the quick reply. This did align everything to the left, but i still have the same issue where 1 row has 1 product, next has 3, following has 4, next has 3, next has 1. :( I’ve played with the width and the margins and still nothing has fixed it.

FOUND IT. You posted on someone elses the following code:

body.woocommerce .main-content .span_9 ul.products li.product, body .woocommerce-page .main-content .span_9 ul.products li.product { width: 23%!important; } .woocommerce ul.products li.first, .woocommerce-page ul.products li.first { clear: none!important; } .woocommerce .main-content ul.products li.product.last { margin-right: 2%!important; } .woocommerce ul.products li:nth-child(4n+5) { clear: both!important; }

Glad you got it :)

Hi,

How can I activate the page builder in custom posts? I am using WP-courseware which uses custom posts named course_unit. I modified js_composer.php like this:

/* Default post type where to activate visual composer meta box settings */
            'default_post_types' => Array('page','course_unit')

But that doesn’t activate the composer. Any thoughts about how to activate it?

Thanks!

Hey moleacit!

For that you’d need to alter the nectar/meta/page-meta.php file to include those options on other post types :)

Sorry I am not a coder, it dont know where should I insert what. Is it an easy fix?

You’d need to edit this line:

‘post_type’ => ‘page’, and then also add the necessary code on your custom post template file to get it to display

Guys, this theme is AMAZING! I love it, and it just keeps getting better. Keep up the good work!

I’m about to start a new project which involves having an ecommerce store on Shopify, I’ve scoured the internet for Shopify themes but nothing even comes close to Salient. My question is: Is there a method that will allow me to use this theme with Shopify instead of Wordpress?

Thanks!

Thanks alfredsalib!

Unfortunately that wouldn’t be possible without porting all the code over to work with shopify

Cheers

Thanks for the reply :)

So does that mean that it technically IS possible? Is it possible to hire someone from ThemeNectar for this service? Or will I need to find a freelancer somewhere? Any suggestions?

Thanks again guys!

Hey again!

Unfortunately I personally can’t take on freelance gigs like that – but yes it would be possible, but take a good deal of work. You could ask around on Envato Studio :)

Hello,

Are you considering adding more features as demos and a new slider option (other than yours) in the upcoming releases?

I noticed Salient begins to be a little outdated and limited regarding your direct competitors. So sales fall down…

Please feel free to let me know.

Regards

Hey nunomiguelm,

Yes there will be new features and probably a new demo in the next release :) – however I’m not planning on bundling a third party slider with it at this time

Cheers

Hey,

Do you know why my span/sections are running outside of the box container? Here’s a screenshot:

LINK

I’m trying to put a border around a column and it’s running outside the container to doesn’t show the right border.

Hey Ace,

Could you kindly a ticket in regards with your log in credentials so I can assist?

Cheers

I have a previous ticket with the credentials. Here: http://themenectar.ticksy.com/ticket/278025

Thanks – I just made a mod to your fullWidthSections function in the init.js file located in the js folder

Hello & thanks for this great theme!

I have a little problem with the map… Since some day days, it doesn’t work… But that work before! Do you think why?

This is the link : http://www.marins.scouts-europe.org/scouts-marins-en-france/scoutisme-marin/

Thank u very much!

Hey aimery,

Make sure you’re on Salient v4.5.22 in order to get the fix for that :)

Cheers

Thanks! That’s ok!

You’re welcome :)
