Hello, love the theme and your support. I’m trying to create a two column grid in my contact form. The first column should have first name, email and company. The second column should have last name, phone number and budget. Under the two columns I want the message to be full width. Can you help? My url is http://50.87.189.220/heynowmedia/site/contact/
Hey mrindubitably!
Add this into the form creation box within CF7:
<div class="col span_6">
<p>Your Name <span>*</span><br />
[text* your-name] </p>
</div>
<div class="col span_6 col_last">
<p>Your Email <span>*</span><br />
[email* your-email] </p>
</div>
<p>Your Message<br />
[textarea your-message] </p>
<p>[submit "Send"]</p>
Cheers
Thanks, but this his how the form looks now http://50.87.189.220/heynowmedia/site/contact/ ...any thoughts. I would like the email to line up with the name and the message below the name and email. Can you help?
Hey again – from what I can see the form is looking aligned. Did you already do some more work to this?
Hello,
I’ve been using salient for quite some time and haven’t experienced this problem before and I’m thinking it might have something to do with the update yesterday.
Midway through the day the custom CSS for my site suddenly is unable to affect the html. When viewing the page source I’m able to see that there is a <script type=”text/css”> with all of my custom css in the <head> of every page, yet the html is unaffected by it.
I’m not really sure what could have happened as I wasn’t working on the site when the problem occurred.
Here’s a link to the site if that helps teamoneil.com (As you can see there are some weird spacing problems as a result of the CSS issues)
Any help would be awesome, thanks!
Turned out to be a dumb mistake on my part and I was able to resolve it
Glad you got it sorted 
Saw that Pirco had a problem with 4.8 and the sidebar disappearing.
I have the same problem with the sidebar disappearing on the main blog page (it’s ok though on individual post pages). I also noticed that pagination has now disappeared. Here’s the shortcode:
[nectar_blog enable_pagination=”true” layout=”std-blog-sidebar” pagination_type=”default” category=”all” posts_per_page=”7”]
Thanks! Eric
There’s a minor update coming out to sort these issues tonight – thanks for reporting
Hey,
is it possible to define a background color for the sidebar area?
Hey Domchu, if you’re referring to the new slide out widget area – yes, you can handle that in the header options tab of the Salient options panel by selecting “custom” for the color scheme
Hi, Im referring to the normal sidebar area. I marked it in the following picture for you.
http://s14.directupload.net/images/141003/2qtucd6k.pngHey Domchu,
#sidebar {
padding: 10px!important;
background-color: #e8e8e8!important;
}
Cheers
Is there a way I can shrink my image size on my homepage:
www.coreyagray.com
to look more like this?:
www.alexnazari.com
Hey!
Disable the extended responsive design in your options panel general settings tab
Cheers
now is there a way to create more space in between each item?
the homepage images are smaller which is what I wanted, but now each of my pages layout is distorted.
for example:
http://www.coreyagray.com/portfolio/great-falls-2/there is a bigger square image (trees and water) under all the smaller ones. that one is supposed to be at the top right of the page with the horizontal line under it, and the two bigger images below that (snake and pink flower). that is how it was laid out previously before disabling extended responsive design. is there a way to leave it disabled and fix the layout of my pages? or enable it again, restoring the layout, and still decrease the size of the images?
Hey again,
is there anyway you could 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
Hi,
How can I add bottom underline to hover and active menu item?
I tried:
border-bottom: 3px solid #0077c1;but then it’s too low just above slider I would like to have it around 5px below menu item.
Thanks!
You answered for all other questions but not mine why?!
Hey prajn, when you comment again on a comment before I have a chance to see, it gets pushed down in the queue based on how ThemeForest sorts things on my end – sorry about the delay
Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
header#top nav > ul > li > a:hover {
border-bottom: 3px solid #0077c1;
padding-bottom: 10px!important;
}
Cheers
Hi,
Today I made update to Salient 4.8. I’m using child theme, but right now I have two issues: - pagination is missing and not working - my menu got messed up. Search button is below other menu items.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/19i49s7nsq7bzou/Screenshot%202014-10-02%2019.09.06.jpg?dl=0How can I fix these ?
Hey – please update to 4.8.1 to get the pagination fix. In regards to the search issue, that’s not a known problem. Could you kindly share your URL?
Really loving your work. A couple questions.
1) Is it possible to not have the date show as a meta item on top of a portfolio item? I just want the title.
2) I’d like to make the portfolio item pages all black (with the heading being white on black)...is there a way to achieve this?
3) Is it possible to have one centered footer widget column?
Thanks
Hey tyronemackay,
1. You can turn the date off in your portfolio options tab in the Salient options panel:
2. Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
.single-portfolio .container-wrap, .project-title, .project-title h1 {
background-color: #000!important;
color: #fff!important;
}
.single-portfolio .container-wrap p {
color: #fff!important;
}
3. Yes, but it would require custom css
Cheers
Thanks. I can’t believe I didn’t see the date toggle.
One more question, is it possible to create separate portfolio pages or have the portfolio load to a pre-determined category?
Wanting links on the home which take you to purely video work and then another link taking you to only print work.
Hey – yes, you can place a portfolio element on a page that is set to only display one category or you could link directly to the category archive by adding /project-type/category-name on your URL like so: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-frostwave/project-type/music/
Is there any video shortcode support (none was in the description) for Vimeo or YouTube?
Hey geekybeaver, Youtube and Vimeo video emebds are indeed supported and you can place them whenever you need within pages/posts
There is a very big space between the text when you press enter to go to the next line. Is there anywhere i am able to control this. the website is http://steffdesign.dk/
Hey steffmann,
Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
p {
line-height: 16px!important;
}
Hi,
The boss bought your theme so it won’t show a purchased tag for me
I’m just sorting out some portfolio pages, and can’t find where to change the colour of the filter when using the fullwidth option. Its a black bar with white text. Tried changing everything that was black in the salient options but still no go.
Does it need a custom css bit to change it, or have I just missed the option?
Screenshot to the menu here
Thanks
Hey squeakybadger!
Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
body #portfolio-filters-inline {
background-color: #fff!important;
}
#portfolio-filters-inline #current-category,
#portfolio-filters-inline .container > ul li#sort-label,
#portfolio-filters-inline ul li a, #portfolio-filters-inline ul li a:hover {
color: #000!important;
}
Cheers
Perfect, thanks!
You’re welcome
Hello,
Our company bought this theme a few days ago and we have lost a lot of valuable time trying to get it to work. We have tight schedules and we are extremely frustrated by the lack of support. We posted a ticket two days ago, we had one response requesting login details to our site and since then we haven’t heard anything. We cannot get this theme to work properly, and its messed up our work schedule.
The Nectar Slider doesn’t work:
1) Images don’t load up
2) Images that come with the template don’t fade into each other
We have done the following:
1) We have disabled any plugins that could cause a conflict
2) We have uninstalled the theme and reinstalled the theme.
We have tried everything.
Can someone please get back to us to resolve this problem.
Thank you.
Hey fskhan, what’s the ticket ID? The queue is on average 24 hours, but due to the two recent updates things are a bit slower. If you can share your URL or ID here i’d be glad to take a look for you
Hi the ticket ID is Ticket: #292330, thanks.
Thanks and sorry for the delay
Hi, trying to display a different home page for different devices and different views (i.e portrait vs landscape). The images I’m using on the Nectar Slides don’t display the way I want them to in responsive mode so I have different image versions for different screen sizes. Any way to select a specific home page based on the @media only screen method? I tried a plug in (Equivalent Mobile Redirect) and it does the job for mobile devices, but I need specific pages for specific screen sizes. Help! Thanks! Love your work btw…
Hey superbrecs! Have you considered just using the flexible height option on the Nectar Slider? That will ensure no clipping occurs on any screen size
I tried, but these images need to be full screen and only way to do that is to use 2 separate images to achieve the desired effect on landscape vs portrait. Any other way you think I can specify pages based on screen size? I’m at a loss. Thanks
If that were the case you’d need to just add two sliders on the page and then give them both classes which you could then use css to target them and allow me to display in each viewport
Any way you can share example code? Thanks
Sure – you’d add a class to each row that contains the sliders such as “mobile-only” and “desktop-only” and then add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
@media only screen and (min-width : 1px) and (max-width : 1000px) {
.mobile-only {
display:block;
}
.desktop-only {
display: none;
}
}
@media only screen and (min-width : 1000px) {
.mobile-only {
display:none;
}
.desktop-only {
display: block;
}
}
Worked perfectly. Thanks!
You’re welcome
Hi, I am trying the same thing as above but now using the Fullscreen Rows, However a blank dot navigation shows. Any way to “hide” rows by using a method similar to above?
Hey,
Unfortunately not as of now – but i’ve noted to add a workaround in the next update
Cheers
Hi! Great theme! Thank you very much!!
I need one-page-navigation (like your go-to-top button), so I have two questions:
1 – Where would I go to learn about the One Page Scrolling feature implemented in 4.8 version?
2 – I read here the same questions and everytime you leave a link to page-scroll-to-id plugin. But it doesn’t work. I add to my link rel option but nothing happens – it just jumps to anchor without animation. What’s wrong? Here is very similar problem – https://wordpress.org/support/topic/animation-not-working-just-jumping
Hey aa_leg!
1. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rj-NQ3YItlc
2. Please check the above tutorial
Cheers
YOU ARE AWESOME! great thanx!
You’re welcome
Actually as above I have sorted point 1 but need to know how to deal with point 2 (clickable area)
Cheers Rich
As per your last comment above please could you give me an example?
Please see my response to your previous comment in regards
<div class="row"><section class="containera strip--light containera--thin"><nav class="pagination-item pagination-item--left is-clickable js--is-clickable ">
<h6 class="light"><?php previous_post(); ?></h6>
<p class="meta"><small><?php previous_post('%','Older Entry', 'no'); ?></small></p></nav><nav class="pagination-item pagination-item--right is-clickable js--is-clickable ">
<h6 class="light"><?php next_post(); ?></h6>
<p class="meta"><small><?php next_post('%','Newer Entry', 'no'); ?></small></p></nav></section></div>
Now I wanted to ask some questions please
1) How do I remove the word ‘Previous Post’, ‘Next Post’ next to titles? 2) How do I make the whole block clickable? I added the mouse pointer but it does nothing unless you click on the links themselves whereas I want the whole area to be clicked.
Hope you can help Rich
You’d need to add a second link in the markup which through css would be positioned absolute and have a width/height of 100%
As per your last comment above please could you give me an example using this code?
<!--Next/Previous-->
<div class="row" style="height:80px;" />
<div class="row"><section class="containera strip--light containera--thin"><nav class="pagination-item pagination-item--left is-clickable js--is-clickable ">
<h6><?php previous_post('%', '', 'yes'); ?></h6>
<p class="meta"><small><?php previous_post('%','Older Entry', 'no'); ?></small></p></nav><nav class="pagination-item pagination-item--right is-clickable js--is-clickable ">
<h6><?php next_post('%', '', 'yes'); ?></h6>
<p class="meta"><small><?php next_post('%','Newer Entry', 'no'); ?></small></p></nav></section></div>
<!--/Next/Previous-->
I simply just need the whole area mouse pointer onclick to go to the previous or next post
Rich
Hello,
The shorcodes doesn’t seem to work. It doesn’t appear after being added and it seem to break the format of the page.
Please advise.
Thanks
Hey zaheer0047, if you’ve ensure no plugins are causing that – please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can take a look at what’s going on themenectar.ticksy.com/
Hi Bud,
I want to add a row manually in single-portfolio.php but it needs to be fullwidth across the page, eg go here: http://richpearson.co.uk/adventures/portrait/ scroll to the bottom the row needs to be full width like the next/previous section?
Cheers RIch
You’ll need to add it outside of the container div or give your row the full width content class
cool yeah I sorted this thank you bud
Hi,
I got a problem with the purchase process that when the customer buy a product, the cart process goes well but they get an empty zip file in the end. I’ve checked out the zip files as far as I’ve seen everything seems fine.
I’m having this problem since I’ve set up “variable product” as product data. http://cl.ly/image/3c1c3w0k0m1a
Do you have any suggestion? Please quick reply.
Thanks
Hey Seyyahil,
have you tried deactivating Salient for a minute to test this out to ensure it’s theme specific?
Cheers
Hi there,
I have tried it out on the twenty theme today and got the same error. http://cl.ly/image/0G0V3g0y2H1Z It seems the issue not about Salient , isn’t it?However I’ll be very glad if you suggest me something about what should I do to fix it up?
Thanks in advance
Hi again,
I looked into the issue about what could I do for. I’ve tried many things to solve it. I talked to godaddy for MOD_SECURITY core ruleset they said this is not a mod-security error, it is about the theme or plugin. I have deactivated all of woocommerce plugins and reactivated them again.
Also I’ve installed “Woocommerce Add to cart Ajax for variable products” + “WooCommerce jQuery Cookie Fix” and applied this one http://docs.woothemes.com/document/jquery-cookie-fails-to-load/
Nothing changed.
i wonder if it is about variable.php http://goo.gl/LBFk7T
Thanks
Unfortunately since it’s not theme specific it’s hard to say – but I believe you could get a solid answer of what route to take if you query this on the WooCommerce forums
Hi! Sorry, I was looking for the answer before asking but I don’t find any solution. I would like to add a slider gallery (nectar style) on a project. I’m trying to show a web design project; for that I need to have my PNG image showing a display, and we can see the others images by clicking on the arrows. But the problem is that the images are scaling over 100%. What should I do to see my entire image (heigh and width) > not croped, and it would be great to have a padding around the image to.
The idea is to have something like the bird in your demo but in a slider gallery : http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-frostwave/portfolio/geowolf-social/ I’m using a full width portfolio style.
Sorry for my english… Thank you!
Another think, when I upload an image with an important transparent padding it’s OK, but when a see it on a smartphone, the image is really croped.
Hey!
Could you kindly share the URL to your page so I can see this?
Cheers
Well… I have a maintenance plugin activated… Maybe I van give you my password in a private message ? How can I do to show you?
Hey again, could you kindly open a ticket in regards so I can take further look? I can’t see any scripting errors but it appears the navigation is also not working
