Have an awesome day.
Cheers, Teemu
Cheers Teemu!
Hi guys, I am struggling to get the back to parent to work under the portfolio pages, I want it to go back to the category that the portfolio ten is in. But when i click it just reloads the page. the website is: www.brindley-fleet.co.uk and the car manufacturers across the top are the portfolio categories.
Any help? Thanks Ash
Hey Ash,
you can set the main portfolio url in the portfolio tab in the salient options panel and also override the link for every project in the project configuration box via the portfolio parent override select field
Cheers
Hi, the theme is very nice. Before I purchase it.
I just wonder, for the Slider, is it easy to set up data-fullscreen to “true” ,?Because I want the slider to be full screen.
Thanks.
Hey, yes you can set that option for your sliders when editing the vc element for it
Thanks for reply, and I have another question that can I use a group of sub Project Categories to be the “Horizontal Filters”, I haven’t found such kind of options yet.
Hey! Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
#portfolio-filters-inline ul li, #portfolio-filters-inline ul ul {
display: inline !important;
}
Thanks for your support. Sorry I didn’t describe my needs clearly.
Example: Project Categories : Applications Featured Illustration Logo Gallery -Bali/Maldives/Other?”Bali Maldives Other” are three sub categories to the Gallery?
Of course I can select portfolio only to show posts under Gallery. And I wonder if I can use only the three sub categories as filter options.
Great thanks!
Hey! Could you kindly share your URL to the portfolio page so I can quickly take a look to assist better?
em…I just have local version now. No problem, I can add little js to achieve my effect first. Will show you later, and will open a ticket on the support forum. Thanks again, it’s a nice theme.
You’re very welcome
HI Themenectar,
On my site www.os-is.com I see that, with my last update, the box shadow changed of the text in the Nectar slider on the homepage. It was nicely left aligned but now the boxes around the text some times hardly have any padding around the font. For example ‘Uncertain times ….’ does not look well.
Can you please advice what I should do to get this fixed?
Thanks in advance, Marc
Hey marc, what browser are you seeing this occur in?
Firefox 32.0.3 on a Mac
and Firefox 32.0.2 on Windows
Firefox 32 now doesn’t support any good css method to handle that padding effect – in the next update i’m going to try and make a Javascript workaround
Hi, I am having a little issue in responsiveness and mobile images with my Nectar Sliders.
Basically, when i resize my browser / view on mobile, the sliders stay at the same height, so i end up with images that are say 300px wide by 600px high.
I have read in the comments on here that there is a ‘flexible height’ option that would allow my sliders to be responsive. I have searched but cannot find this setting.
Where can i turn it on so the sliders become responsive and the images scale correctly?
Thanks,
Hey, The option should exist when editing the nectar slider element in your visual composer view. If you’re missing it then you most likely need to update your version of the theme to a later release
Is there a way to make the site more mobile friendly by changing the viewport size? I would prefer the site to look like the desktop version on mobile, rather than keeping icons large and fitting vertically.
Thanks
Hey, If you want to disable the responsive aspect of the site, you can do so in the general settings tab of the salient options panel
Hi, thanks for the response. While that is an option, that option will not correctly show the website on mobile. For example, I would like the site to stay responsive, but just shrink the content to fit in the window. rather than maintain size and just move everything around, I do not want placement to change just relative size.
Could you kindly share your URL in regards so I can inspect the page?
For example of how the site should look in mobile, you can review another website I am building with the Florida theme (had to do some custom CSS to allow for the correct mobile view) wp.thelittlelogolab.com
And for the Salient theme, please review design.haydendawkins.com
You will notice that on thelittlelogo site, the mobile view is more similar to the desktop site, yet still readable and easily navigated.

Hi!
Is it possible to add a backgoujd color to the theme header (not only the page header). A color to the header globally.?
Hey! Are you referring to the top navigation header? If so you could handle this via the header options tab in the salient options panel. However if you’re trying to color the page header globally it could be done via css
having problem with infinite scroll … says all items loaded but there should be more. Pls advice. http://kevinzahri.com/videos
nevermind figured it out …. thanx. great theme!
Glad to hear
Even though I have now fixed the header so it doesn’t follow on scroll
#header-outer {
position: absolute!important;
}
Why is there a white background on the header just as you scroll down the page?
http://richpearson.co.uk/Cheers Rich
You’d need to remove this line from the init.js file
$('#header-outer').removeClass('transparent');
Having displayed the bg header space as none as you suggested on this page: http://richpearson.co.uk/journal/
.blog #page-header-bg {
display: none!important;
}
I now get the title and row appear at the top of the page, I simply need a 150px gap at the top and for the page not to show a grey band in responsive mode, any suggestions as to how I fix this please?
Cheers Rich

Hi Bud,
Just going back to the sidebar buttons: http://richpearson.co.uk/adventures/sports/
Why is it that the styles look so different on the button shortcode when they are in the sidebar than in the main theme? I would like the button at the top of the sidebar to look the same as the ones in the main site please.
Hey currently I’m seeing your Url through a fatal error
Unfortunately I can’t access your url at the moment due to the fatal error
Seems ok for me, that’s strange
It’s up for me now – could you link me to a page where you’re using a sidebar with the buttons? I couldn’t see that on the URL provided
It’s the slide out sidebar that is on every page
#slide-out-widget-area a.nectar-button {
font-size: 13px!important;
font-weight: normal!important;
padding: 15px 22px!important;
}
Hi. I’m having a problem trying to get my home page slider image to show. I imported the dummy content (creative), and have uploaded an image to the home slider. But, the home page just shows a dark grey area with a spinning wheel.
Hey DrMarie,
You need to actually upload the image to the Nectar Slider instead – please see this in regards:

Hi ThemeNectar, The picture in my Nectar Slider is fitting fine in Chrome, IE and Mobile (Iphone) but when I try to see in Safari Desktop is cutting. Could you help me out, please? http://loureirojiujitsu.com
Hey maurinoloureiro, I actually can’t see a difference in Safari on my PC – are you checking on Mac? Also do you see the same behavior occurring on the demo?
Hey guys, When you highlight any of the copy on the site http://50.87.189.220/heynowmedia/site/ a blue color goes over the letters. I would like to change that blue to #e2231a. You can get an idea of what my I mean by highlighting some copy on www.heynowmedia.com
never mind i figured it out!
Glad to hear
Hi favourite developer!
http://privat.peterpackroff.dk/I have had a lot of issues with plug-in widgets in your footer. They render wrong – but only in the footer. As soon as I place them inside a page, they are cool.
In the footer is currently found the Cumyulus Tag-cloud plugin (which was working inside the pages) and a Social Icon plug-in, which is displaying wrong when placed inside the footer.
Hope you can help
Peter
Hey, try adding this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
body #footer-outer .lsi-social-icons li {
display: block !important;
float: left !important;
}
Hi I already jave visual composer – can this be used instead of your version? What exactly does ‘highly customised’ entail? I’m thinking of Visual Composer updates etc. Thanks Glennyboy
Oh also can the portfolio link out to external site9s)?
Hey glennyboy1,
1. You can deactivate the Salient VC in your options panel – you can also see it in action here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N4mt0lOJ888
2. Yes, external links are an option for each project
Cheers
Was trying to gauge what your version does that the original VC doesn’t? Also if the main VC is updated do you in turn update yours? What is the rough timeline for updates?
It has mostly custom elements and it’s own styling for the ui. If bugs are fixed in the Raw vc version I implement them as well, but updates for salient come out every month – not every one has vc changes though
Hello,
How can I get rid of the space between the greenish full-width section and what’s below (the quote and logos)?
http://www.artblend.com/mj/Hey,
set the bottom padding on the row holding those elements to 0 – it appears to be at 35 at the moment
Cheers
How do i do that? I tried…
.full-width-section.standard_section {
padding-bottom: 0px;
}
as custom CSS but it doesn’t seem to work
You can do it directly in the row edit settings window within Visual Composer – if you need assistance please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can take a look at what’s going on themenectar.ticksy.com/
Yes that took care of it. Thanks! (as well as the update)
Great to hear!
What is the best way to upgrade an existing installed Salient theme with your new release? We want to upgrade from 4.5.22 to 4.8.1.
Hey,
You can update by downloading a fresh copy from ThemeForest, deleting the current version you have on your server and uploading the new. I recommend using FTP, but you can use the WP dashboard if you prefer. You won’t lose any of your content or theme settings so don’t worry about that if you were
Hey!
The font on the nectar slider looks great when on a desktop view but when it goes down to mobile it is just too small to be able to read.
Is there any custom css you can provide me with so that I can up the font size on mobile devices?
Thanks again!
Joe
Hey Joe!
The text sizes scales down proportional to the rest of the slider to ensure no clipping on the image. If you want to change it you just need to alter the few lines of css for elements in that viewport. Look for these rules in the mobile viewport in the responsive.css stylesheet located in the css folder:body .swiper-slide .content h2
body .swiper-slide .content p
body .swiper-slide .button aCheers
Hi TN,
Do you know when / if icons in the menu’s is likely to appear?
I was thinking about using a custom CSS class, but can’t seem to find where the icons reside in the theme? Where would I find the URL for the different icons?
Cheers, Peter
Hey Peter,
the icons are all in the font files within the css/fonts – if you wanted to add one in the header, you could do so by calling it in a menu item within the HTML
Great, thanks!
You’re welcome
