If I create an alternative (extra) main-menu. Would it be possible to (through script) to replace the default main-menu with this alternative one?

(and how to?)

Hey Peter,

Yes, but this would need to be handled in the header.php file – i’m not sure how it is you want it to display and what will be different about the alt menu

Cheers

Im not sure you get what I mean, sorry. What I want is to KEEP the existing menu. But for a sub-area of my website, I would have like to display a different menu. This could also relate to my other question regarding a menu as a short-code, if that is possible.

All of above I thought could be done using the usual CSS, where I am able to HIDE the menu. I thought it would also be possible to replace it on selected pages.

The nectar slider font doesn’t appear to be retina ready as it looks quite blurry on a retina macbook. This is true on my site as well as your demo. Do you have any solutions for this or plans for a workaround? It’s odd because I know it’s not a graphic but seems to be impacted similarly by retina. Thanks!

Hey ehong33234,

This only occurs on Safari, but is being looked into :)

Cheers

I have created a POWERFUL LOVELY SITE off your theme.

Is there a way to kill the animation effect when my pics load? There seems to be a delay in displaying the images and it comes in the form of a fade animation. All the pics seem to load at once altogether…

Hey!

When using a masonry display unfortunately the layout must wait for all images to finish loading in order to calculate the correct positioning for each posts

Cheers

How do I add subcategories to pages? Like if I wanted to make folders under a page?

Hey coreygrayhhs,

you just have to drag and drop the pages in a nested fashion in your Appearance > Menus section of the admin panel like so: http://i.stack.imgur.com/lsQa6.jpg

Cheers

Thank you!

You’re welcome :)

I accidentally took off lightbox for my portfolio page and I don’t know where to go to change it back. help?

Hey – glad you got it :)

is it possible also view the nectar slide with video background on ipad? thanks

Hey Jagoda, unfortunately not – I cover why not in my video tutorial here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FLU9Pxo_RD8

Hello guys,

i was wondering if there is a possibilty to build something so my guests can switch the language between english and german for example (no automatic translate i want to do it by my own) or do you recommend a plugin what works the best for you theme?

Greetings, Thomas

Hey Thomas,

WPML would be the go-to plugin for this :)

Cheers

Are there any plans to incorporate feeds to popular networks such as instagram, dribbble, 500px, etc into a portfolio VC element?

Rich

Not yet, but I’ll add the idea to the wishlist :)

On your demo: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-ascend/ how did you get the masonry section to appear please? (the section under the quote ‘we enjoy sending…’) is this linking to a bespoke page or is it a blog entry?? Was a bit confused on which setting to add ??

Cheers Rich

It’s a portfolio element set to display masonry with the option checked for max columns to 4

Do you know in css if there is a way to make the declaration for line through on hover be any thicker?

R

Not by simply using line-through for the text declaration – you’d probably need to use some custom css

I need to make the back to top a larger square, is there some css to do this please? And also are there any plans to include back to top in mobile views?

Cheers Rich

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

body #to-top i {
    height: 59px !important;
    line-height: 56px !important;
}
body #to-top {
    height: 59px!important;
    width: 59px!important;
}

Hi Bud,

I’m working on my new layouts and portfolio and it’s coming on quite nicely, couple of questions

1) On this page: http://richpearson.co.uk/home-alternative-three/ and viewing on the ipad (or in responsive) the section at the bottom titled ‘About me’ & ‘Why I photograph’ runs into 1 column, I would like it to show as the 2 cols I have set it as, any ideas why it isn’t doing this please?

2) The section under the nectar on: http://richpearson.co.uk/home-alternative-three/ which has the 4 images, I have set these to onclick show a larger image, however at the moment they say ‘image cannot be loaded’ any reason why this is happening please?

Cheers Rich

Hey Rich,

1. Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
@media only screen and (min-width:690px) and (max-width:1000px) { 
.vc_row-fluid .vc_span6, .wpb_teaser_grid.wpb_carousel .vc_span6 {
    width: 48.75% !important;
}
}

2. Could you open a ticket in regards so I can check out what’s going on?

Cheers

Hi

How do I change the Author on the blogpage from what is current my word press admin username. I want to be able to enter any name, depending on who posts the blog – how do i do it?

Hey touronama,

the author name will display based on the current user account writing the post as per default WP functionality – changing this would require the use of a plugin or a custom mod but isn’t theme specific

Cheers

Hi guys! Awesome theme… Just 1 question.

Is it possible to add a .png or .jpg or any kind of image (a logo for example) to the home video slider? I would like to achieve the logo centered on a video background.

Thanks

Hey bautistajulian!

Yes, you can use an img tag right in the caption field to handle that :)

<img src="source.png" />

Cheers

Portfolio links are redirecting to Home page??? http://www.firsths.tv/messages-2/

Hey jasonstewart24,

Have you tried to disable any plugins to check for conflicts? Also I would try resaving the permalinks in Settings > Permalinks

Cheers

Resaving the permalinks worked! Thanks

Good to hear :)

Hi there, I have a question regarding linking to project attributes. I am linking to specific categories that I have set, but when i ‘view’ the category, the page that is created looks nothing like the one from the portfolio. We have categories like commercial, design etc. and they are set to display all at once, but when i view one from the dashboard, even though its the same category, that page is different. I am just wondering what is happening and where I can make the edits i need to. Thanks again for your time,

Hey keyframeinc,

This is a bug and the next update will address it and allow you to link directly to the project attribute page with the expected layout

Cheers

Hi :-)

I’ve seen a post where you described to someone how to change the text colour of the nectar slider:

.swiper-slide .content h2, .swiper-slide .content {
    color: #000!important;
}

But I’d like to know if it’s possible to change text colour and/or background colour of an individual slider if you have two sliders on one page? I’d like one slider to have white text, and the other to have, for example, blue text.

Also, does .content h2 relate to the heading or the caption?

Many thanks, Andy

Hey Andy,

The snippet above will cover both the text and heading of the slider – if you want to isolate sliders different you can add a class to slide you want to change the color of for example “blue-colored” and then change the css accordingly:

.swiper-slide.blue-colored .content h2, .swiper-slide.blue-colored .content {
    color: #20b8ff!important;
}

Cheers

Thanks for the reply,

It almost worked, in that it didn’t work (lol), but when I inspected the element (chrome), I found the following:

hello.com/media="all" 
.swiper-slide[data-color-scheme="dark"] .content h2, .swiper-slide[data-color-scheme="dark"] .content p, .swiper-slide[data-color-scheme="dark"] .content .button.transparent a, .swiper-slide[data-color-scheme="dark"] .content .button.transparent_2 a {
color: #111;
text-shadow: none!important;
}

When I unticked the color property, it did work. Been playing around with the CSS to see if I can get it to properly work, but no luck so far. Do you have any idea what the issue is?

Thanks

Hey – could you share your URL so I can check on it for you?

Hi,

Great theme, best Ive ever bought!

I’ve come across an issue, I’m looking to have 2 contact forms on the website. I can nearly replicate the first one apart from having the google map full screen. http://urban3dwebtest3.net/?page_id=1011 Can this map go full screen?

Regards

Got it thanks anyway!

Hey Urban3d, glad to hear you got it :)

I’ve been trying to get my portfolio to display 6 images but the masonry style is set to a default of 5 so it is placing the 6th pic on a new row on desktop. Is it possible to change the max columns to 6? I know there is a check box for 4, but I’d prefer 6 :P

Hey Vinnydude,

This would actually take some custom css and a js mod in order to allow the column number to change – however it’s on the wishlist to allow the user to define the max column number

Cheers

Hey, me again,

My site looks very small when opened on google chrome. I’m not quite sure why. It looks great in Safari. Also, is there any way I can make the top banner load a little bit quicker and fade in?

Thanks

Hey zekemusa! Please ensure that your browser zoom level is set to 100% – I can’t see a difference between Chrome and other browsers currently.
