#call-to-action .container span {
font-family: 'openSansLight'!important;
}
Cheers
Thanks for that – could you provide the Custom CSS needed to increase the spacing between the letters (the letting)? Sorry for not being more clear.
Hey – Add this into the custom css box:
call-to-action .container span {
letter-spacing: 2px!important;
}
Hello again.
Can you provide a css snippet that I can paste per page that changes the Text Color of the header links? My header varies from light to dark and sometimes the menu items cannot be seen

Hey ThemeNectar
We’ve updated our wordpress as well as our Salient theme to the latest version. For some reason, we’re having a lot of problems loading the site on ipads/iphones… It takes minutes, while it loads right away in any other device/browser .
Do you guys know what could be causing this issue or what to do to fix it? Our users are becoming frustrated with this behavior.
site: http://5starperhead.com
Hey 5stars2014, was it happening prior to the update which you installed? Do you experience the same behavior loading the demo on your mobile device?
Yes. it was happening prior to the update and as a matter of fact, that was one of the reasons why we wanted to give it a try.
Installed the newest version of WordPress from scratch, installed the newest version of the Salient theme, installed the rest of the plugins we had before, uploaded the content backup we made of the previous site and it just hangs and takes a lot of time to load but ONLY IN iphones/ipads.
Images were reduced in kb size and even tried multiple combinations of caching without any benefit.
We believe the problem may be the nectar slider since it’s pretty much the only “fancy” thing going on in that site.
Can you look at the site with an iphone/ipad, perhaps you guys could get an idea of what’s going on or, can you provide me with pointers on where to start debugging this problem?
Hey again! Sorry for the delay – checking it out on my iPad it seems to load the same as other mobile devices. Have you tried on more than one device? I also can’t seem to replicate that loading behavior on browserstack
Hi guys,
small issue with a row of recent projects being displayed incorrectly. I have one image which is displaying larger than the rest on my homepage – see below at the bottom of my page
www.takeheeddesign.com
What is the cause / fix please?
Tried changing lots of settings etc. Thanks, Mat
Hey Mat,
This image http://www.takeheeddesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/nurturenest-logos-527x403.jpg is not uploaded at the minimum width requirement of 600px for an item – if you reupload it at that size it should work as expected 
SEO Fix -
Hey guys for portfolio items, the title of the item is always used as the alt text for the thumb image – even when overriding it with WordPress SEO’s “SEO Title” field. This works against proper SEO as it forces designers to either use their SEO title as the item’s title (which can look weird and unrelated) or not optimize for SEO. Can you modify your theme to respect WordPress SEO’s “SEO Title” field as the alt text for the portfolio thumbnails when utilized?
Hey co50,
Are you referring to the SEO Title field that’s added when using a specific SEO plugin?
Cheers
Yes – when using the SEO Title field in WordPress SEO, it replaces the existing title with what you enter there. The original Title basically becomes more or less a label in the WP Admin.
Thanks for noting, I’ll look into it
Hi Bud,
Any chance you could look at ticket number #300757 today or tomorrow, I need you to log in please and take a look at my child functions.php file as it’s breaking my website currently.
Cheers Rich
How do i go about this?
Hey Wayneleehongzhao,
Have you followed the user guide “troubleshooting video backgrounds” section in regards to adding the .htaccess mod?
Cheers
Greetings, how would you move the Caption of the Nectar Slider above the Heading?
Any pointers to which file to edit and code to move would be much appreciated. Awesome theme!
Hey worldwidewhirlwind,
You’d need to either modify the functions.php file at the nectar slider function or use css to alter the positioning
Cheers
Love this theme! One question I had was regarding WooCommerce.
I’ve been creating some test products, and I noticed that once I go to the cart page, something is happening where a sub menu from my main menu is getting activated on page load. Not sure if this is Woocommerce doing this, or Salient.
An image is attached to show what’s going on when I load the cart page. Any tips on keeping this from happening?
www.doggettstudios.com/cart.jpg
I should also mention that these are also ‘test’ products- the store isn’t actually live. Not sure if that would create the problem though.
Hey EricDoggett,
What’s the actual URL to your shop page so I can take a peek?
Hey there – sure – here’s a test product I created. Add it to the cart, and click the ‘view cart’ text, and you’ll see the next page load with the menu already displaying: http://www.doggettstudios.com/product/texas-christmas/
Try changing the transition method in your options panel to “simulated AJAX” (this feature was added in Salient v4.8)
Thanks – that worked! Although I hope I don’t lose cool ajax stuff in the meantime. Maybe a fix for the next version? Thanks again!
You’re welcome
Hi,
In the Shop : http://wp.glamorta.com/shop/I am not getting on the right hand, the Filter, Top Rated Products and recent reviews sections, like:
http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-ascend/shop/?sidebar=truePlease help, thank you.
Hey Web_Browser P,
Make sure you enable the sidebar in your WooCommerce options tab in the Salient options panel and then drag your desired widgets into it via the appearance > widgets tab
Cheers
Hello,

There’s basic css done to accommodate for buddypress, but further integration does no have an eta unfortunately
I have already bought this amazing theme, but have two related questions:
- What are the advantages/features of Ascend compared to the normal skin?
- How do you turn Ascend on or off?!
Hey wibbler,
1. It’s just different styling for various elements
2. You can change that via the Theme Skin option in your Salient options panel > general settings tab
Cheers
hi before i purchase I have few questions .
1- does this theme support RTL, specifically Arabic ?
2- Can i change the logo from the left to the right of the page ?
Hey yss8166,
1. There’s a front end RTL stylesheet
2. Yes with a custom css snippet I could provide
Cheers
Hello,
How could I add a required form field when people are entering their checkout information in the Woo Commerce store checkout? I need an extra required textbox to say “Please List Everyone Attending”. Hopefully that’s not too hard.
Thank you! Nick
Hey Nick,
Have you posed this question on the WooCommerce forums as well since it’s not Salient specific?
Cheers
I haven’t, but will do so now.
Thanks
Hi, a quick question.. in the demo of the theme.. you have a floating config button to select layout styles.. how can i have that kind of floating button? i dont want the configuration.. but a floating button which i can use for a link to another website.
just to be clear.. the button im taking about is the one with id=”toggle-section”
Hey awaix,
That’s only for demo purposes but if you want that included send me an email at themenectar@gmail.com so I can send over the demo theme
Cheers
Homeslider only reduces partially in a responsive mode. Any Custom CSS I can insert to make it a 98% width in a responsive mode? Thanks.
Hey chickc, you would need to use the Nectar Slider instead – that with the flexible slider option activated would solve the issue
ok thanks. i will give that a try.
Sounds good
Ok got that to work and now of course I added the recent posts via Visual Composer and now my vertical thumbnails are now getting cropped horizontal. ??
anyone know how to resize the recent posts display thumbnails?
Ok found it. Change add_image_size( ‘portfolio-thumb’, 000, 000, true ); to the size you want.
Hey,
Glad you found it
Cheers
Hello Nectar. I have a question about hover links. You know when you click on a menu link and load the page, the link is highlighted right? To show you that you’re on the page?
Well, similarly I’d like this with links. More specifically:
I want to have 3 links in 3 columns. (Either picture or a simple word-link.) I want these 3 links to say: Kitchen, Bathroom, Outside. So there are 3 pages. These 3 pages are: Kitchen, Bathroom, Outside. I want these 3 links to link to its corresponding page. And then…
When I’m on the kitchen page, I want the Kitchen link highlighted. I want the Bathroom and Outside links to appear clickable but not highlighted. The Kitchen link remains highlighted to indicate that you clicked on it.
How do I go about this?
Hey theljmusic,
You’d need to manually add a css class to each of the links on the specific page which you want them to be highlighted
i.e.
<a href="" class="highlighted">Link text</a>
and then in the custom css box:
.highlighted {
color: #000!important;
}
Cheers
For your information:
I have had quite a few problems using the image-grid extensions – and also your own, when using together with your tabs. Please see following message.
The result can be found here:
http://www.erhverv.peterpackroff.dk/portfolio/roomz-chair/Hi Peter,
Thanks for using our Smart Grid Gallery plugin.
There was a CSS conflict with your theme style.css file. Unfortunately there is no way to fix it by adding some CSS snippet (this way usually works fine). Your theme developer used !important rule for images margins, that can’t be overwritten by our plugin.
So, I have changed your style.css file a little on line #2179:
from
.col.centered-text img, .wpb_column.centered-text img, .col.center img { margin: 0 auto!important; }
to
.col.centered-text :not(.justified-gallery) > a > img, .wpb_column.centered-text :not(.justified-gallery) > a > img, .col.center :not(.justified-gallery) > a > img { margin: 0 auto!important; }
This way it should work as it was before for all other images, but Grid Gallery.
Keep in mind, that if you update your theme this change will be lost. I am sorry for inconveniences, but this is the only way to make it work with your theme.
Let me know if you have any questions.
Regards, Pete
Hey Peter,
If you removed “Centered Content” option from your column that rule wouldn’t take effect (which is what’s causing the problem)
Cheers
Hello,
Love your website. I will be promoting it to people I know. I do have a a question. How do we make the video backgrounds play on ipads??
Hey, please see this in regards http://youtu.be/FLU9Pxo_RD8?t=6m38s
Hello,
Let me first say that I absolutely love your theme – it almost always does exactly what I need it to do.
However, I tend to have a lot of issues with how the elements on the page readjust themselves when resizing the browser. Rather than play with the custom CSS and @media and all the different pixel dimensions that the CSS changes I’d like to just disable the responsive design.
When responsive design is off, you lose horizontal information under whatever the max-width is set to.
I’ve forced a horizontal scrollbar with
html, body { overflow-x:scroll ! important; overflow:initial ! important;}
But I still cant seem to have the html to span 100% horizontally when the browser goes below my max-width.
Ipso facto.. Am I wasting my time trying to attain a fixed width site with a horizontal scrollbar that appears when the browser shrinks?
Good to hear Totalscope!
horizontal scrollbars don’t work on all mobile devices, but the website when the responsive design is off should still be zoomable by pinch zoom and allow you to see all the content – could you kindly share your URL so I can check on that for you?
Cheers
