Hey Salient team,
You helped me a lot since then, and I thank you for that. 
I have a quick question for you, maybe you have the solution for me.
I have a 4 pictures gallery here : http://kribou.ca/nos-services/ I want for each 4 pictures, to have its own URL (to other pages). I don’t see the option anywhere. Do you know how to do it? Thank you a lot.
Little up?
Hey alexandreminem!
Unfortunately commenting multiple times before I can see pushes the comment further back in the queue due to how TF sorts things on my end. Sorry for the delay!
The way to go about what you’re looking for would be to use an actual portfolio element – then in each of the projects use the “external project URL” field to set the page link you need
Cheers
Hey Themenectar, thanks for the help! The portfolio element is good, but 2 things doesn’t work : - the publication date appears under the title of the image (i don’t want it) - the image doesn’t sort in the way I want.
Check the page to see the difference between the gallery and the portfolio if needed. http://kribou.ca/nos-services/Thanks for the help, the support is really great, i love it.
Hey!
You can remove the portfolio date in the portfolio options tab within the Salient options panel and reorder the items with this if needed https://wordpress.org/plugins/intuitive-custom-post-order/
Wow you’re great, thanks for your reply. Last (quick) question for you : how can I edit the style of the text in the portfolio picture? You can see on the page words like “pré-démarrage – idéation” and others. I would like to change color + size. Where can I do that?
Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
.portfolio-items .col .work-item.style-3 h3 {
font-size: 24px!important;
color: #2bded2!important;
}
Thank you SO MUCH, you’re awesome.
Let me ask you one quick and last question please : I don’t know how to use additional CSS class. I want to add a 2 px solid border to one picture I have, on an article. How can I do that?
Thank you again for your help.
Hey,
You can add the class onto the image directly like:
<img src="" class="my-class" />
and then enter this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
.my-class {
border: 2px solid #000!important;
}
Cheers
You are great!!! That was my last question. Thank you for your patience, and your help for all my questions. I’m really glad to have your theme and recommand it to my customers. Thanks again.
You’re very welcome!
Hi, I updated the theme a month or two ago and it somehow disabled the map markers. The settings have not changed (location #1 – #4 are still enabled and coordinates set up). http://www.blackdoghospitality.com/contact/
Hey Radishwrangler! If you update to the current release that should sort itself out
It worked. Thanks!
You’re welcome
Salient is single handedly the best theme on all of ThemeForest. I’ve bought a ton of items on here through multiple different accounts and every time I get a new web design project I look for a theme that might feet my specific needs. But I’m wrong in doing that because Salient is such a flexible theme it literally works in every situation. I’ve built e-commerce sites, blogs, general informative sites, membership sites, and more using Salient. I absolutely love this theme and have purchased many licenses for it. You won’t be disappointed with this theme. Also the support goes out of their way to help you out. Many theme authors set a super strict terms of service saying anything not included in the theme they won’t help you with. ThemeNectar literally went out of there way to help me customize their theme outside of what the standard theme offers. This is my first review on a product in years because I couldn’t hold off anymore. Truly a great product. Thanks so much ThemeNectar
Thanks so much for taking the time to write that MattVanDyck! I really appreciate it and am delighted to hear you’ve been enjoying Salient so much
Cheers!
Hello, Thanks for all the support. I’m trying to make the submit button red for my newsletter sign up. I want the button color #e2231a. Can you help? My url is http://50.87.189.220/heynowmedia/site/
Hey mrindubitably,
Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
input[type="submit"], button[type="submit"] {
background-color: #e2231a!important;
}
Cheers
Hey Guys, I tried the code you sent me, but the newsletter submit button is still grey. Is there anything else i could try? Hope you guys can help.
Hey again, add this in as well:
body .mc4wp-form button, body .mc4wp-form input[type="submit"] {
background-color: #e2231a!important;
}
Thanks again for your support. I’m not sure what’s causing the issue, but we haven’t solved it yet. The frustrating part about this is my mailchimp newsletter sign up in the footer has a red submit button. http://50.87.189.220/heynowmedia/site/
No worries – is there anyway you could open a ticket in regards so I can check on why the snippet isn’t working on your end? http://themenectar.ticksy.com/
Hi, love the theme. How can I add a sitemap to the footer?
Hey LucidRob_Designs, if you want one automatically generated you would need to use a plugin for this
Thanks.
You’re welcome
Hi, I love your theme but I have one question
I am using the Standard Blog /sidebar function but instead of placing the featured imagine above the text and having it in huge size, I would like to use it aligned to the left next to the next. Is this somehow possible?
I can manually use a picture and make it visible before the Read More button, but then it won’t show up in the “Related Posts” plugins.
Is there a fix?
Thanks
Hey TradRol!
Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
article.post .content-inner .post-featured-img img {
float: left!important;
margin-right: 20px!important;
width: 50%!important;
}
Cheers

Hey rachellawtog,
have you tried to delete the current theme via FTP before doing the upload?
Cheers
Hi!
Quick question! Is there a way to adjust the spacing height of DIVIDERS on mobile. I adding some spacer on my home page and on mobile they are making larger spaces then I would like.
I there a way to make those particular DIVIDERS on the homepage smaller on mobile?
Also on the homepage I have text in a section with a different background. I had to add padding (50px TOP 40px Bottom) to have the text centered in the box. It’s centered in a browser, but on mobile it’s noticeably not centered.
Is there a way to fix these things?
THANKS HAPPY FRIDAY!
Hey petruccelli,
could you kindly share your URL so I can take a peek?
Cheers

display: block!important;

What’s the difference between the default theme and ascend? I can see a visual difference but can’t figure out what is available as an in-theme option and what is exclusive to Ascend :/
Hey,
The option to switch the skin is available in your general settings tab – the differences include various differences in styling for theme elements and inputs. You can check on all this in action via the live demos
Bunch of problems still with the latest Salient just released today – rendering my website useless to anyone viewing it. On my iPhone with the latest iOS, my home page www.acmediaservices.com shows 4 of my logos and just the site map. Then if I click the reload it just shows my logo and top color and nothing else on the Home page and if I refresh again, the slider spins with nothing. Go to my website with an iPhone with the latest iOS (iPhone is not an iPad). My website is completely useless now. Each time I reload the Home page, something different and odd occurs. I’ve never seen this from Salient. I am one of the main people who has worked hard to connect with you and explain the issues. These past two Salient updates have not fixed this issue. It’s only made things worse. I guess I’m the only one utilizing Salient who has an iPhone with the latest iOS. For a moment, my site worked on my iPhone and I tried to access my Web Design page with the portfolio. All I saw were the categories listed and no portfolio items as well. My menu bar is gone on the iPhone. By the way, I refreshed my phone and safari browser on my iPhone. I have a bunch of screen capture shots. My website is a mess with these updates not working on and with whatever was done. I wouldn’t encourage my clients who have Salient to update at this point, when they really need to. Please review my site, locate and fix the bugs as I can not be the only person having issues with Salient trying to work with the new iPhone iOS. I have developed a certain level of trust and devotion to Salient, but I think you guys need to hire a Mac / iPhone expert to fix these issues as you are not able to do it. With over 22,000 sales, I think you can at least try to afford it. Salient is my favorite theme, but this is a disaster which has not been fixed. Please contact me as I have already opened up a ticket 
I love Salient and your tech support. I just don’t know what’s going on with Salient and it’s serious compatibility issues with the latest Apple iOS for iPhones. Please help. Thank you. -Avi
Hey again,
I actually completed testing with a physical iPhone 5s running ios8 and also did simulated testing via browserstack using an iPhone 6 with ios8 – I could not see any of the issues you’re referring to. The only known issue which was reported by users was the slider text not showing up at all and then it showing, but becoming blurry after 4.8 which last nights update sorted. I can attach screenshots for you of what I’m seeing on ios8 or supply a screencast:
http://i.imgur.com/34CxvGB.jpg http://i.imgur.com/nnVfvTX.jpgSince you’re the only one experiencing the odd array of problems described above and I still have not been able to get it to occur at all on 3 different sources of testing with ios8, something else seems to be at play. Have you attempted to check on more than one device using ios8? And are you also seeing these same issues occur on the demo as well – you hinted above that the issues are no longer present for you on an iPad but were the other day?
For some reason it takes somewhere under 24 hours for my iPhone 5s even after clearing cache in Safari to see the better version of Salient on my iPhone. At this point, a lot of images are in black and I don’t know what can be done about that, as it were not the case before. Please visit www.acmediaservices.com to see if you have that as well. Also, one of my clients who has Salient, I reinstalled the new version and it has a lot of issues at this point. Once again – will probably take 24 hours or less to show up properly and hopefully there won’t be any bugs including images being blacked out, which I have a feeling will happen. We’ve never had this issue before with any Salient updates where in a sense it takes around 20 hours or so until a phone recognizes the new Salient version. And the blacked out images, this is a problem. They were fine before. It’s nice that you are testing your theme, but can you view my site and see what you see? Thank you
Now my site is back to being the disaster it was yesterday. Something is wrong with how the iPhone 5s and perhaps other iPhones / their Safari browser on the iPhone / WordPress / Salient are dealing with each other. I’ve updated my site to your various versions as you released them and have never experienced this ever. Other WordPress themes I know of have not been affected by this iOS update as much. Something is not right here. You need to buy more iPhones. Not just iPhone 6. You need 5s, 5, 4, etc. – same for iPads. Some that are on your latest theme version. Some that are not, etc. This situation is affecting my site and my client sites that are on Salient. If you notice, other people here on this message board are posting messages to you about compatibility issues with Salient and the latest Apple iOS. Salient “rocks” as a great theme but now with the latest issues – it’s “crumbling” our websites.
None of my Salient client sites or mine are e-commerce based sites. Do you understand how this situation would be affecting e-commerce based Salient sites that are relying on sales of items? Yes, disaster. Please help. Please fix. This is not fixed. I’ve never seen a WordPress theme have such problems, but I really like this theme. This situation is not good. In fact it’s bad. Again, please help.
For some reason the sites are working fine now. Even though I reset cache and cookies I decided to instead of typing in the links in the iPhone 5s Safari browser to just search for my website and other websites I designed on Google and they show up fine. I will work on updating other client sites who utilize Salient and see how it goes. You have all been quite patient and nice at ThemeNectar and I appreciate your patience and attentiveness to this matter. Salient has become my favorite theme of all time for many reasons. I am confident in it. So when I see such issues I didn’t know what was going on. Not all theme developers are as attentive as ThemeNectar. Some are just plain MIA (Missing In Action), but that is not the case with ThemeNectar. If anyone reads any of this, if perhaps some things I shared here during this journey is helpful in troubleshooting some things, I hope it is only for the good, as I consider this to be the #1 theme of ThemeForest that I have confidence in. There are some others that are on top of it as well, but there are so many reasons to choose Salient first. I’ll check back later today and let you know how it’s going. Thank you.
That’s great to hear – just let me know if you run into any other issues
Cheers!
Will do. Thank you.
You’re welcome
Hi again.
Maybe I was a bit naive, but I had hoped I could make the first grey box (underneath the banner) on this page a “Share on Facebook” column-link.
Will the new row-ID make this thing easier? Or should I go a complete other way?
This is the code I got from Facebook…
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/share-buttonInclude the JavaScript SDK on your page once, ideally right after the opening tag.
Place the code for your plugin wherever you want the plugin to appear on your page.
Hey,
You should be able to place that in a column but there’s no easy way by using the column link attribute to have the entire column be clickable to that button since it’s an embedded element
Cheers
Hi, I’m wondering, how can i turn off image animation in element “single image”? Cheers
Hey witula,
Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
img.img-with-animation, .col.has-animation, .wpb_column.has-animation {
opacity: 1!important;
}
Cheers
I’m doing some custom coding on this template, I want to make the maximum number of columns for the masonry portfolio 3, not 4. Can you please tell me which files I need to look to make this change?
if($portfolio_containers[i].hasClass('constrain-max-cols')) {
mediaQuerySize = 'four';
and then the “constrained cols” section of the style.css file
Hi, great theme, is there a way to show the footer widgets only in the Home page? I want only the copyright to show in the other pages.
Hey antoniahv, add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
#footer-widgets {
display: none!important;
}
.home #footer-widgets {
display: block!important;
}
I’m asking again, could you please help me here?
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.
Hey prajn,
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
Thank you very much!
Hi,
Wonderful theme. I was wondering if it’s possible to have the back to all button above the project title on smaller devices (phone). Now the title is above the 4 squares. (Already removed the previous- and next-button.)
Hey eyedi!
@media only screen and (max-width: 1000px) {
#portfolio-nav {
position: absolute!important;
top: 0!important;
}
#page-header-bg h1, body h1, body .row .col.section-title h1 {
height: 73px!important;
padding-top: 20px!important;
top: 40px!important;
}
}
Cheers
Thanks a lot for your quick reply!!
You’re welcome!
I have another question. Is it possible to add space between the header and content (featured image + added content) on a portfolio item page? Now the content is placed right against the header.
Yes – could you share the page URL so I can assist with the css?
Hello, here’s an example : http://www.eye-di.be/wp/portfolio/dia-de-los-muertos/
.single-portfolio #post-area .video {
margin-top: 40px;
}
Thanks again. A problem I came across; On smaller screen-sizes the padding is gone. Any chance for quick fix? You can see it on the same page.
Hey again,
Change the snippet to:
.single-portfolio #post-area .video {
padding-top: 40px;
}
Cheers
Thanks again, you’re the best. The support is awesome!
You’re welcome
Kudos on the theme.
I’m using the following for light box, are both features build into salient and how do I use them?
form lightbox – have button on click show form in lightbox: [formlightbox title=”Let’s get started”] .[contact-form-7 id=”2614” title=”Contact form 1”] .[/formlightbox]
video lightbox – have image on click play video in lightbox: Link url: youtube video Link Rel: wp-video-lightbox set to autoplay.
Thanks
I mean I’m using those plugins currently
Hey jonnythecrow!
You can do a video lightbox straight in Salient without a plugin by doing this in the text tab on your editor:
<a class="pp" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yarB1NCyqfs" target="_blank"> Video link text </a>
but to link to a lightbox with html content such as that form you would be better off using the plugin
Cheers
I’ve been naughty and not updated as i should have been—due to past experiences with OTHER themes…and my site breaking down.
I’m still using 4.0.3…and now want to upgrade to 4.8 or the newest patch 4.8.1
Can I do that still…or do I need to update some in between? I did download previous patches (not all, but most) and would like to know best way to handle this so site won’t have struggles.
Advice?
Hey JaimeBuckley!
You should be fine to just go straight to 4.8.1 Make a backup of your current theme before deleting it and replacing it in case anything goes array though – also remember to clear caches after updating.
Cheers
Hi,
On the About us page, the Ascend demo, you have a title and a subtitle on an image that has the mouse parallax feature on it. My question is how did you make that? It seems like a nectar slider that has the mouse parallax feature instead of the usual parallax effect. Could you please explain to me the settings you have there?
Thanks.
Hey calin_balea,
