Hi, I can not translate the themes, I’m using the plugin codestyling-localization more inside the themes folder in the file .mo languages ??do not have, tell me I can see where that file to translate.
thank
Hey eronpasam,
Make sure you have named the default.po/.mo file in salient/lang to match the language code you’re using in your setup. For example if you were using portuguese it would be named pt_BR.po/.mo

Hi there, me again! 
Is it possible in the Nectar Slider to drop down in the Heading?
For example:
Entertainment Business Affairs
We want to align our name along the left side of the slider vertically like shown here.
Thanks!
Hey inthemikz!
This would require some custom css but I can’t seem to see your example correctly in here to assist better – do you have a screenshot or URL where I could check?
Cheers
Hi,
Here is the url to our site…http://www.ebaonline.org/ On the home screen nectar slider you see our company name “Entertainment Business Affairs” on the top left. Reason we would like this is because we have a video displaying our clients and don’t want our company name to be blocking their faces.
Thanks in advance!
Hey! If that was the case you could just add line breaks between the words in the caption field – it would look like:
Entertainment <br /> Business <br /> Affairs
Is there an option or code I can use to keep the “Scroll to Top” button activated on mobile and tablet devices?
Hey, this would require a mod to the init.js file located in the js folder – you’d need to alter the “scroll to top” section of that file to allow it to stay on mobile devices
Hi, Love your theme.
Im having a problem with button width as I would like them to be equal. Also would like that text element to follow the scroll and having that kind of fixed feel.
http://www.zoan.palvelin.pro/terranova/filosofiamme/Hey ZoanEffects!
Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
.page-id-28 .nectar-button {
width: 100%;
}
Unfortunately having that area fixed would take some custom javsscript to make it perfect
Cheers
I am referring to the three blocks called:
A BREEZE TO BUILD WITH TUTORIALS TO HELP SHOW OFF IN STYLE
Thanks!
Hey! Please see this in regards https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DpJWWM4BAbo
No doubt a really silly question, but how do you get the nectar slider to appear over/under the header? I changed the setting under Salient-Header to make it transparent but it only works with the home slider.
Another newbie question, I want the nectar slider to take up the full front page until scrolling begins, but I can’t seem to extend the height. Changing Nectar pixel height does nothing. Column housing the slider has no options to extend height.
Thanks
PS – I did not personally purchase the theme, am working on it for my boss who did. Happy to provide his details if necessary.
Hey dazzazzad!
1. If the Transparent header option is active it should occur whenever the nectar slider is used in the top of page – if it’s not for 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
2. There’s an option for fullscreen in the Nectar Slider element that will handle this
Cheers
Is it possible to have a custom slug for the blog, eg;
http://richpearson.co.uk/journal/workspace/ instead of: http://richpearson.co.uk/workspace/I know this can be done in the portfolio section in the theme admin, but not in a blog?
Hey, this wouldn’t be theme specific – here’s a post on it though http://wordpress.org/support/topic/change-single-post-permalink
Three weeks ago, i was told the new version (with one page scrolling) will be released the next week. When will the release come?
Most likely on Saturday
Hi
I wonder how the Pinterest button is suppose to work. I am used to a screen bringing up all images from the page when you push the button but the Salient version only shows the featured image from the single portfolio page.
Example from my salient theme: http://www.fotabrollop.se/portfolio/anima-och-sany/
I want it to show like this one: http://jonaspeterson.com/portfolio/destination-wedding-elora-rajiv-bali/
Pinterest button further down on the page (below all images)
Thanks
Hey fredrics1,
The pin button in Salient is only pinning the current page rather than all of the images in your gallery – it looks like that pin button on the second URL is a custom solution
Cheers
Sorry, so on this page: http://richpearson.co.uk/journal/ I want the read more button class of continue-reading to have a see-through button like on this page: http://richpearson.co.uk/adventures/sports/
Hey, please see my last snippet in regards to your other comment
Hi,
I love the ascend version of salient. How can i go about copying the exact typography settings for this? Are they listed anywhere?
thanks
Hiya,
Is there a way on portfolio pages to insert the date above the title of the page?
Eg: I on here? http://richpearson.co.uk/adventures/sports/
Hey, It would take some modding to the single-portfolio.php file to output the date there
How would I go about changing the buttons on my site so they are see-through please, for instance the blog page listing current has a small black read more button, where would I go to change this?
article.post .more-link span, .blog-recent .more-link span, input[type=submit], button[type=submit] {
background-color: transparent!important;
border: 2px solid #000!important;
color: #000!important;
}
Hi ThemeNectar,
Is there any way of setting an automatic resizing option for images placed on the Caption field of the Nectar Slides?
I noticed that on small computer screens (like 13”) the slider is resized, but not the image file within, which crops the image top and bottom. If I just change the image for a smaller one it will look good on small screens, but it will look way too small on bigger screens (16.9” and up). Can you understand me?
Another issue; I have the last theme version but the marker icon is not being displayed on the map.
Thanks for your attention.
Hey iBoardCanada,
1. Make sure you have the flexible slider height option on to scale the images to exact aspect ratio’s on any screen
2. Could you kindly share your URL so I can take a look why that is?
Cheers
Thanks once again ThemeNectar, I thought I had checked the flexible slider setting, my mistake.
The URL is http://iboard.ca/.
Cheers.
No worries! I’m actually seeing that your map.js file is still not from the current release of 4.5.22 – can you try downloading the theme again and replacing that file with the fresh one?
Problem solved. Thanks!
You’re welcome
Hi,
my friend just purchase this Theme few months ago. He asked me to do something with his web.
I’m wondering why there is a small white space between my “Testimonial” row and “Call to action” button.
Do you mind to help me sort this out?
http://impactbusinessstrategies.co.uk/Hey CaliphStudio!
It seems there’s an unclosed strong tag in your editor – please switch into the text tab on it and delete any stray html strong tags you find
Cheers
Hello,
Thank you for creating such a beautiful and flexible theme!
I just have one question. I would like to use Google Analytics to track how many times someone downloads my resume. I’ve read that I need to add an event handler to the link that should look something like this:
I’m using one of the theme’s buttons to link to the resume.pdf file and I was wondering if there is any way to integrate the event handler in the button’s html? I tried adding the onClick bit to the button code (in the text editor), but it didn’t work (the website displayed the html rather than the button). Do you know of any way to track button presses (or downloads) using Google Analytics?
Thank you! Nikki
Hey Nikki!
Here’s the html for a button which you can add the event onto
<a class="nectar-button large extra-color-2 regular-button" href="#" data-color-override="false" data-hover-color-override="false" data-hover-text-color-override="#fff"><span>Test Button</span> </a>
Cheers
Hello. Awesome theme. Probably the best I have ever purchased.
I recently started using the portfolio options and I was trying to find out a way to remove the view larger option.
I found an answer from a year ago that said to do:.portfolio-items .col .work-item .work-info a.pp {
display: none;
In the custom CSS and it doesn’t seem to work.
Hey hatr3d!
Use this now instead:
.portfolio-items .col .work-info .vert-center > a:first-child {
display: none;
}
Cheers
Hi, it’s Avi. I guess most of your customers haven’t upgraded to the latest Apple OS for mobile devices. All my client sites utilizing Salient are broken with no access to the nav bar and websites are messed up in general. I added a ticket but haven’t received a response. I know it’s not your fault, but who knows what Apple has done disregarding WordPress based sites or perhaps it’s just some configs in Salient (although Salient rocks). Can you please do what you can to resolve these issues and release a new version as me nor my clients can run our businesses online because of this. Please help. *Also, in this next release, can you add social network icons for iTunes, Amazon, MySpace and IMDB? Sincerely, Aviad
Hey again Avi,
Still looking into fixing any ios8 bugs that maybe exist – the new update will be out soon
Cheers
Thank you
Hello hello,
I have a situation which is baffling me and I’m wondering if it’s possible using the visual composer or otherwise.
I have an element which has a full-width background image, and 2 columns (1/3 + 2/3; completely irrelevant information :-p). I’d like to have a third column which is below the two columns, spanning across the whole page – BUT, I also need the full-width background to cover all three columns. Do you know how I can do this? at the moment, I can only do it with two separate full-width backgrounds.
Many thanks!
Edit: http://i.imgur.com/rYKJKom.jpg – This screenshot might help. I’m looking for it to be like this, but just one full-width background.
Hey aduncan1987,
you could used nested rows inside of the main one with BG to stack columns while staying inside of a single parent row
Cheers
Thanks for the reply – I’ve tried nesting the rows inside the main one, but I can’t get it so that there are two columns (1/3 + 2/3) on top, and then one column (1/1) below, all within the same parent row 
Hey – here’s how it would look inside of VC http://i.imgur.com/sn8RaQt.png is that what you ended up with but it didn’t work?
Thanks for that! having seen your image and done a bit more playing around, I’ve managed to nest them like your image . I have a big problem however – it won’t let me insert a simple carousel in the nested element! is there a way for this to happen?
On that note, is it possible to buttons on the simple carousel that are a bit like the nectar slider buttons, or the testimonial slider buttons?
Many thanks!
Hey, one way to get around that would be to switch to the classic editor and manually add the carousel shortcode into the column outside of vc so you don’t have that restriction. In regards to the button question that would take some custom modding
After a bit of fiddling, I have the desired result! I’ll mention that there wasn’t an option to set a column background colour for each column like you would if the column wasn’t nested, but I added the shortcode from an un-nested column and achieved the nested columns, with individual backgrounds
Many thanks for your help with this issue!
You’re welcome Glad you got it sorted
Hi,
Just ran into an issue which I’d say is related. Here is an image.
I’ve added individual backgrounds to the three nested columns shown, as mentioned in the previous post. For some reason however, although the 2% padding has worked fine in the top left column, in the other two columns, additional CSS has been applied to change the padding to 0px and I have no idea why. As far as I can see, the background colour shortcode used for the three columns is exactly the same as I copy and pasted the code:
[vc_column_inner width="1/3" enable_animation="true" animation="fade-in" column_padding="padding-2-percent" background_color_opacity="0.7" delay="2" background_color="#000000"][vc_column_text] lorem ipsum xyz hello [button....] [/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner]
[vc_column_inner width="2/3" enable_animation="true" animation="fade-in" column_padding="padding-2-percent" background_color_opacity="0.7" delay="2" background_color="#000000"][vc_column_text] lorem ipsum xyz hello [/vc_column_text][carousel easing="easeOutSine" scroll_speed="1200"]...[/carousel][/vc_column_inner]
Sorry I can’t provide a link to the site as my organisation have locked it down, but if you have any idea what might be causing this, it would be a great help.
Thanks
Hey again – are you also on the latest Salient release?
Hmm…it would appear an update happened today…
I’m currently on 4.5.22 – allow me to install and I’ll get back to you with the outcome!
Argh, the outcome is not a positive one – my nectar sliders died, as did a lot of my text and images. One of my full-width backrounds suddenly went huge as well (original image size, rather than just the height of the vc row). I have reverted back to 4.5.22 for now and the padding issue remains!
The row BG issue is a known bug of 4.8 and is about to be sorted in the minor release due out in a couple hours – as for the other elements disappearing it was most likely a caching issue. If you update again and share your URL I’d be glad to take a look
Hi,
Nice one on getting a 4.8.1 out so quickly. However I’m having the same problem. I’ve cleared my cache from the beginning of time in both Chrome and IE11, closed all windows and I still have large empty spaces with lots of text missing. To give an example of an issue I was able to somewhat troubleshoot, I have a Team Showcase shortcode on one page and after applying the update, it has the following style:
element.style {
display: none;
}
HTML line:
<div class="tshowcase-pager-wrap " style="display:none;">...</div>
But without the update, the style is shown as crossed out when inspecting the element. Again, the website is currently password protected and I’m unfortunately my organisation won’t allow me to share this but if there was any way that you might know how to resolve this off the top of your head(s) it would be hugely appreciated! For now, I’ll continue with 4.5.22.
Many thanks.
That’s odd – if you can share the URL in private that would help, but one thing to try off the top of my head would be:
.tshowcase-pager-wrap {
display: block!important;
}
Hi there,
I’ll get onto my boss regarding the URL – in order to access the site myself I have to change my hosts file!
Anyway, so I’ve sort of fixed the problem. I’m using a child theme so I replaced my child init.js and header.php with the 4.8.1 versions, then added my changes. After doing this, all text reappeared, but the sliders and team showcase didn’t. I then did a bit of searching and thought my child functions.php may be the problem – I have a function in there to use my child init.js rather than the parent one:
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'javascript_init_script_fix', 20 );
function javascript_init_script_fix() {
wp_dequeue_script( 'nectarFrontend' );
wp_enqueue_script( 'salient-child', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/js/init.js', array( 'jquery' ) );
}
I changed the number after “javascript_init_script_fix” (priority?) to 10 and cleared the cache, loaded the page, and then my sliders and team showcase returned! but, the carousel on my homepage changed to 3 columns (when I’d edited init.js to make it 1 coulmn). So I changed the number a few more times, and the carousel eventually changed to one column – but then when I navigated to another page and when back to the home page, the carousel reverted to 3 columns. And I then found it would intermittently choose between 3 and 1 column upon refreshing.
I’v tried all kinds of priority numbers but have got nowhere. Do you have any idea what I may need to do to fix this? I appreciate that it may be difficult without viewing the site itself
Thanks, Andy
P.S. Sorry about the length!
Hey Andy! That’s strange – whenever you can share the URL privately it will be a lot easier for me to help diagnose the root cause
Hi guys! I have a question about the pricing table. I was wondering if it is possible to replace the default title (“[pricing_column title=”Column 1”) with an image. I couldn’t find this question in the comment section..
Thanks!
Hey favothemes,
This wouldn’t be possible without some custom html markup as of now
Cheers
