Hey ThemeNectar,
This question is really low priority – and I’m in no hurry: Is it possible to have a repeating background image on a single post page by default (like this one: http://puusto.com/katajavarpu-juniper-twig/ )? (By the background image I mean something like this: http://puusto.com/blog/ )
Cheers, Teemu
Hey! Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
.single-post .container-wrap {
background: url("http://puusto.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/03.jpg") repeat scroll 0 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);
}
Awesome, thank you. 
You’re welcome
hello,
I bought your theme and thank you for the excellent work. I possibly have a request: can you fit into the back office can manage itself even the line-height for each title. Thank you. Sorry for my bad english, i’m french !

Hey Nicolas! Thanks for the reuqest
Hi! I have a little problem with the playback of a video background using the nectar slider.
Here the page link: www.sotow.it/wp/?page_id=1624
Why it doesn’t start?
Hey Marcovagabondo! Please use video files that aren’t hosted on the themenectar server – they’ll get blocked by default. If you want any seen on there check the dummy data section of your user guide for download links
Sorry, where i should put my video? Why i can’t use my domain to store my video files?
You can, but when I last checked I was seeing a reference to some video files on my server as opposed to your own. If you’re still having issues with this please open a ticket in regards with your login credentials so I can see what’s going on
How can i open a ticket? Here? http://themeforest.net/user/ThemeNectar
Sorry, here’s the link: http://themenectar.ticksy.com/
I found a solution! Thank you anyway
You’re welcome
Hello! I have bought the salient theme and wish to add in the dummy data for salient-frostwave/home-multi-layer-parallax/ – is this possible? If so, how do I do it? Many thanks, Claire
Hello, I’m trying to link videos from dropbox to the nectar slide. The link I copy from dropbox seems to not work. I’ve tried to use mediafire and got the same result. I’m not sure what to do in this case. Should i use a different host for my videos? Please help.
Hey mrindubitably,
you can link videos from anywhere, but it needs to be the direct source file – can you let me know one of sources you’re entering?
Cheers
Hey Dude,
Loving the theme, it’s ace!
Quick question though, is there a way to set maximum width of the portfolio, so as screens get larger, the portfolio section stops at a specific width?
Many thanks in advance!
DD
Hey DD!
Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
.single-portfolio .container-wrap .container {
max-width: 1025px!important;
}
Cheers
Awesome support, I can see how hard you work!
BUT, it’s still not working. Added to page css first then into site wide css and no chanhe.

Hey – sorry, I thought you were trying to alter the single project page width, not set a max width for a full width portfolio element itself. That unfortunately wouldn’t be possible without some custom JS development
Hey @richpearsonwd
Hey bud, did you consider using the black and white to colour rollover on photos in the next update?
see this class…

Hey SS3, thanks for helping him out!
That’s a nice work! Good luck with sales 
Thanks!
Hi! I installed the Disqus plugin and it works very well in all the pages (http://7aa.ea8.myftpupload.com/2014/09/nidi_battistella/). But it doesn’t work in the review tab of Woocommerce pages. (http://7aa.ea8.myftpupload.com/prodotto/baxter-diana-chester/) Can you help me?
Hey hawaiian1985, have you confirmed that disqus only doesn’t work in that area with Salient?
Yes ThemeNectar, I confirm that with the Disqus plugin enabled, the review tab in Woocommerce pages is blank. (https://www.dropbox.com/s/awwsph1ejj00247/Schermata%202014-09-23%20alle%2015.15.15.png?dl=0). In the other pages it works. However, if i disable the plugin, the tab works correctly with the stars rating e the comment box. (https://www.dropbox.com/s/86mn2l6tnj9vn1q/Schermata%202014-09-23%20alle%2015.18.29.png?dl=0). You have no solutions?
I was referring to if you checked that with WooCommerce & Disqus active it works when a different theme is active – I’ve noted to test that on my end as well
Hi Bud,
Please see my back to top button on: http://richpearson.co.uk/ as you can see I have made the size of it the same as the logo…
However I have 2 queries.
1) Because it’s so large half of it always appears in view – can anything be done about this?
2) I still want to change it, so it appears fixed in the footer and centred, can you explain what files I need to change please and what i need to put in the footer.php page to achieve this?
3) How do I increase the arrow size within the centre of the back to top square?
Cheers Rich
Hey,
If you search for “to-top” in the init.js file located in the js folder you’ll be able to find the relative statements to alter it’s starting position
done that thanks, it appears that changing this file in a child theme has no effect at all 
don’t want to make alterations to it in the main theme for obvious reasons.
Pointer on Google maps does not work, i have tried same way as it shown in example. Any help pls.
Hey, make sure you’re on Salient v4.5.22
Hi Bud,
1) I have added a few styles to custom css to try and move the portfolio nav controls to the footer, see: http://richpearson.co.uk/portfolio/my-life-in-snooker/ however I cannot get the back to nav grid icon to stay in the same position when switching around in responsive etc,
#portfolio-nav ul, html .single-post #single-meta {
margin-top: 180px!important;
}
#portfolio-nav ul.controls {
position: relative;
right: 48%;
left: auto;
}
#portfolio-nav a i, #portfolio-nav a i {
color: #fff!important; }
2) I have also added a few styles in custom css to try and get the portfolio title to arrange left instead of centre, however although I have this working in responsive mode it doesn’t seem to arrange far left and there is something pushing it to the right, again see: http://richpearson.co.uk/portfolio/my-life-in-snooker/
.project-title {
background-color: #ffffff!important;
text-align:left!important;
}
Appreciate it if you could help me out on these.
Cheers Rich
Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
body #portfolio-nav {
position: absolute!important;
}
that’s great thanks although in responsive mode it still doesn’t quite line up in the center of the block ??
Did you have an answer to point 1 as well please?
Rich
hi, is there a support site or email support?
Have some questions regarding my menu, i imported the xml data and it certainly looks different than the one on your demo.
Hey RicardoRL, yes you can create a ticket here: http://themenectar.ticksy.com/
Hi I wanna buy your theme because of the fantastic visual design however our team wanna a featured testimonial page like this http://the7.dream-demo.com/main/pages/testimonials/testimonials-100-percent-width/ I wonder that can salient theme do that on any way? Thanks!
Hey ImHUan!
this could only be possible if you created the testimonials manually in columns – the only testimonial element in Salient is a testimonial slider.
Cheers
Hi Bud,
I have taken this block of code from single.php:
<!--ascend only author/comment positioning-->
<div class="row">
<?php if($theme_skin == 'ascend' && $fullscreen_header == true) { ?>
<div id="single-below-header" class="<?php echo $fullscreen_class; ?> custom-skip">
<span class="meta-share-count"><i class="icon-default-style steadysets-icon-share" /> <?php echo '<a href=""><span class="share-count-total">0</span> <span class="plural">'. __('Shares',NECTAR_THEME_NAME) . '</span> <span class="singular">'. __('Share',NECTAR_THEME_NAME) .'</span> </a>'; nectar_blog_social_sharing(); ?> </span>
<span class="meta-category"><i class="icon-default-style steadysets-icon-book2" /> <?php the_category(', '); ?></span>
<span class="meta-comment-count"><i class="icon-default-style steadysets-icon-chat-3" /> <a href="<?php comments_link(); ?>"><?php comments_number( __('No Comments', NECTAR_THEME_NAME), __('One Comment ', NECTAR_THEME_NAME), __('% Comments', NECTAR_THEME_NAME) ); ?></a></span>
</div><!--/single-below-header-->
<?php }
if($theme_skin == 'ascend') nectar_next_post_display(); ?>
<?php if( !empty($options['author_bio']) && $options['author_bio'] == true && $theme_skin == 'ascend'){
$grav_size = 80;
$fw_class = 'full-width-section ';
$next_post = get_previous_post();
$next_post_button = (!empty($options['blog_next_post_link']) && $options['blog_next_post_link'] == '1') ? 'on' : 'off';
?>
<div id="author-bio" class="<?php echo $fw_class; if(empty($next_post) || $next_post_button == 'off' || $fullscreen_header == false && $next_post_button == 'off') echo 'no-pagination'; ?>">
<div class="span_12">
<?php if (function_exists('get_avatar')) { echo get_avatar( get_the_author_meta('email'), $grav_size ); }?>
<div id="author-info">
<h3><span><?php if(!empty($options['theme-skin']) && $options['theme-skin'] == 'ascend') { echo '<i>' . __('Author', NECTAR_THEME_NAME) . '</i>'; } else { _e('About', NECTAR_THEME_NAME); } ?></span> <?php the_author(); ?></h3>
<p><?php the_author_meta('description'); ?></p>
</div>
<?php if(!empty($options['theme-skin']) && $options['theme-skin'] == 'ascend'){ echo '<a href="'. get_author_posts_url(get_the_author_meta( 'ID' )).'" data-hover-text-color-override="#fff" data-hover-color-override="false" data-color-override="#000000" class="nectar-button see-through-2 large"> More posts by '.get_the_author().' </a>'; } ?>
<div class="clear" />
</div>
</div>
<?php } ?>
<?php if($theme_skin == 'ascend') { ?>
<div class="comments-section">
</div>
<?php } ?>
</div>
<?php if($theme_skin != 'ascend') nectar_next_post_display(); ?>
And added it to single-portfolio.php.
It has worked to a degree, see at the bottom of: http://richpearson.co.uk/portfolio/my-life-in-snooker/
However if you click next post right through to the last post, the next button keeps keeps re-peating the same 2 posts, eg sports & portraits, looking at the blog section I notice the last post just doesn’t show anything.
Obviously me copying this block of code isn’t quite right, can you advise please what I need to do? What I would like on the last portfolio cycle is for the block to go back to the first item (thus causing a loop cycle).
Cheers Rich
Code above reduced to
<div class="row">
<?php
if($theme_skin == 'ascend') nectar_next_post_display(); ?>
<?php if( !empty($options['author_bio']) && $options['author_bio'] == true && $theme_skin == 'ascend'){
$grav_size = 80;
$fw_class = 'full-width-section ';
$next_post = get_previous_post();
$next_post_button = (!empty($options['blog_next_post_link']) && $options['blog_next_post_link'] == '1') ? 'on' : 'off';
?>
<?php } ?>
</div>
<?php if($theme_skin != 'ascend') nectar_next_post_display(); ?>
Hey Bud,
I want to move the portfolio controls to the bottom of the page, I have located the code in single-portfolio.php, but don’t know how to move it, the title needs to stay at the top, and the grey bar needs to move to the bottom.
http://richpearson.co.uk/portfolio/my-life-in-snooker/In an ideal world I would love to know how to create a next/previous section like this page: (scroll to bottom) http://samking.co/adventures/austin-vol-2/ any help to do this would be hugely appreciated please.
Rich
Hey Rich,
The code to move would be this: http://pastebin.com/Z2dWXBMQ and would need to go after this:
<!--/container--><pre> custom css would also be needed to style it Cheers</pre>
Hi, themeforest… I am interested for purchasing Salient theme. Since i am still beginner i want know do You have Bosnian or Serbian latin language translation file ready? Thank You!
Hey boskov!
The theme comes ready for translation, but does not include those already pre translated
Ok, thank You, what would be easiest method to do that translation?
ThemeNectar, i just bought Your Salient theme! Currently reading documentation. I think it will fulfill all of my expectation!!!
Hey onelogo,
search for the portfolioHoverEffects() function in the init.js file located in your js folder
Cheers
Hey ThemeNectar, Codestyling-locatization does not see my salient-child theme at all !!! Anyway this is warning i have at top of it:
Scripting Guard [ details ] The Plugin Codestyling Localization was forced to protect its own page rendering process against 17 incidents ! . . . . Malfunction at current Theme detected! Name: Salient Child Theme | Author: Boško Vasi? Below listed scripts has been automatically stripped because of injection: http://total-trade.ba/wp-content/themes/salient/nectar/assets/js/nectar-reorder.js http://total-trade.ba/wp-content/themes/salient/nectar/assets/js/nectar-meta.js http://total-trade.ba/wp-content/themes/salient/wpbakery/js_composer/assets/js/theme_admin.js http://total-trade.ba/wp-content/themes/salient/nectar/tinymce/shortcode_generator/js/chosen/chosen.jquery.min.js http://total-trade.ba/wp-content/themes/salient/nectar/options/fields/color/field_color.js http://total-trade.ba/wp-content/themes/salient/nectar/options/fields/upload/field_upload.jsIs this some error on theme or? I started translating manualy using poedit. it was difficult to find a way where to put translated file and how to name it! salient-bs_BA.po and salient-bs_BA.mo
That plugin just throws warnings for scripts that are loaded on admin panel pages – don’t worry about it, it won’t effect anything for you
Can you make the image gallery VC component display variable image sizes in the grid? I don’t want them all to be square, would be nice if it could be overridden somehow…
Try just entering the size “medium” or “full” instead of a pixel value
Hi, how to make the slider title bolder and larger like this page? http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-frostwave/home-multi-layer-parallax/
I do not seen an option for it.
Hey fantill,
you need to change the typography settings for the slider header in the typography options tab in the Salient options panel – the font used is “lovelo”
hi! i’d like to know what code could i use to make the horizontal row padding (X) the same size as the vertical column padding (Y) on every project so i don’t have to change the padding manually on every image.. is that possible?
https://www.dropbox.com/s/zwnoq1gqcs5p2mh/padding.jpg?dl=0cheers!
Hey ricpolisel,

Cheers
