Pre-sales question:
Can you control the width of the sites content or sidebars?
Hey,
There’s an option for “Extended Responsive Design” which changes the max width for those elements to a % value and a bit wider, so toggling that will be the only change from the theme options to alter it. If you needed a hardcoded px value you’d need to use a css snippet
Hi there,
We are translating our website to Spanish and I was wondering if by any chance there is a .mo and .po files for es_ES already done by someone.
Thank you. 
Hey! Unfortunately I don’t have a es_ES one to pass out
Large Icon Effect (Inverting colors)
If you look on my ‘home’ page you will see 3 circular (large) icons under the main slider.
www.andypeck.co.uk
At the moment the ‘Roll off’ effect is fine but when the user ‘rolls Over’ an icon I want the same effect you use on your own site where there is a COLORED OUTLINE effect. I suspect its there but has taken on the inverted background BEIGE color. Is there a way to have the disc maintain its BEIGE FILL but also have an ORANGE 1px OUTLINE to the main disc and also have the additional 1px SECONDARY OUTLINE outside circle?
Cheers Andy
Hey again,
The border hover is only added for the “large” icon style, the large alt actually leaves it out unfortunately
Cheers
Instructions on using (Hosted) background video
I know its out there somewhere already as im sure ive seen it in the past on here. Can you point me to a tutorial/Instructions on how to create a background video. Sorry to ask again but I cant find it in my notes.
- Best Practices - How to host locally (my server) - How to then implement inside Salient
Cheers Andy
Hey Andy,
this video covers that https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FLU9Pxo_RD8&list=UULadn-VhQG7cXY9UzMBj0Cw and there’s a section in the user guide for “troubleshooting video backgrounds” if you run into any issues 
Thanks – Ill give it a go

Disable Image Gallery ROLLOVER on just a row
Under my INFO text on my ABOUT ME page (http://http://andypeck.co.uk/about/) ive dropped in a 4 col gallery as using a grid or a WP gallery gives me unpleasant results.
Can you tell me how to EITHER completely disable the ROLLOVER (so nothing happens) for just this row via CSS or if there is another way to produce the same effect WITHOUT using CSS that I may have missed.
Cheers Andy
Hey,
.portfolio-items .work-info-bg, body .carousel-wrap[data-full-width="true"] .portfolio-items .col .work-item.style-2 i, .portfolio-items .col .work-item.style-2 i {
display: none!important;
}
Works a treat altho its a bit buggy on first load in Yosemite (large blocks) but once its refreshed seems to display ok. Perhaps you will be able to look at this for future updates
Cheers as always
I’ve noted this 
Responsive Logo & Text scaling
Ive stripped out my style.css so its empty (to be sure ive not created a fault) and yet when I view my pages on a mobile device both the logo & slider text ‘over’ shrink. Surely by default this should work? I shouldnt need to add css out of the box to make this work so how do I make this work.
**Ive also noticed all of your slider text over-shrinks too although your logo shrinks correctly
Cheers
Andy
by the way… my site is:www.andypeck.co.uk
Hey Andy,
the logo defaults to 30px on mobile, here’s a snippet to enlarge it http://themenectar.ticksy.com/ticket/46745/search/
As for the slider text:
@media only screen and (max-width: 1000px) {
body .nectar-slider-wrap[data-full-width="true"][data-fullscreen="false"] .swiper-slide .content h2, body .nectar-slider-wrap[data-full-width="boxed-full-width"][data-fullscreen="false"] .swiper-slide .content h2, body .full-width-content .vc_span12 .nectar-slider-wrap[data-fullscreen="false"] .swiper-slide .content h2 {
font-size: 33px !important;
line-height: 39px !important;
}
body .nectar-slider-wrap[data-full-width="true"][data-fullscreen="false"] .swiper-slide .content p, body .nectar-slider-wrap[data-full-width="boxed-full-width"][data-fullscreen="false"] .swiper-slide .content p, body .full-width-content .vc_span12 .nectar-slider-wrap[data-fullscreen="false"] .swiper-slide .content p {
font-size: 17px !important;
line-height: 31px !important;
}
}
Hello again…
Tried this and it did nothing in my Child-theme. Pasted it at the top under…. @import url(”../salient/style.css”);
I decided to try again and this time put the CSS in the actual ‘General Settings’ on the admin panel (instead of my child theme). IT WORKS!
Question is then… Why cant I put this into my Child theme and make it work? Ive hoped to avoid keeping CSS in two separate places. So untidy and causes confusion later.
Thanks Andy
Try this in your child theme:
@media only screen and (max-width: 1000px) {
html body .nectar-slider-wrap[data-full-width="true"][data-fullscreen="false"] .swiper-slide .content h2, html body .nectar-slider-wrap[data-full-width="boxed-full-width"][data-fullscreen="false"] .swiper-slide .content h2, html body .full-width-content .vc_span12 .nectar-slider-wrap[data-fullscreen="false"] .swiper-slide .content h2 {
font-size: 33px !important;
line-height: 39px !important;
}
html body .nectar-slider-wrap[data-full-width="true"][data-fullscreen="false"] .swiper-slide .content p, html body .nectar-slider-wrap[data-full-width="boxed-full-width"][data-fullscreen="false"] .swiper-slide .content p, html body .full-width-content .vc_span12 .nectar-slider-wrap[data-fullscreen="false"] .swiper-slide .content p {
font-size: 17px !important;
line-height: 31px !important;
}
}
Hi ThemeNectar! Is it possible for me to re-download the dummy data somewhere? We had someone set up the site for us initially but did not load hte dummy data, and I can’t get in touch with him right now to get it from him.
Thank you!
Hey cvuong,
Send me an email and I’ll attach it for you 
Cheers
Hi there! I snet you an email but never got a reply. Can you send it to cbtvuong[at]gmail.com? Thanks much!

I’m trying to style the mega menu I have. I am trying to get the mega menu’s column title to ALWAYS have a red background (#C40000) and the font color to ALWAYS be white. I have spent about 2.5 hours this morning trying to accomplish this but have not been able to successfully do so. It seems whenever I move my mouse over the column, the red background disappears and the title font color is red. Totally not what I need! Can you please tell me what I need to add to custom CSS to make these changes?
Also, do you know the CSS to change the hover background and color for sub menu links in the mega menu? Currently it is a dark grayish color with a lighter gray font color. Would love it to be the red color background and white text on hover.
Here is the link to my site I’m building where you can see the mega menu. Also, here is a link to the screenshot for what I’m trying to accomplish as well:

Thanks so much!!!! Wonderful theme and wonderful 5 star support! Had my church rate this theme with 5 Stars! You guys rock!!!! 
Hey design126!
Checking out your URL now it seems that you’ve accomplished the styling you were interested in – if that’s the case please just let me know 
Cheers
Yes! I kept playing with it and achieved the look I was shooting for! in terms of the column headers having the red background and white text. However I’m still unable to figure out how to change the hover over background color and text color for the menu links in each column. Right now when you hover over a link in the menu columns it’s a grey color with grey text. Would like to change that if possible.
Thanks! Really loving this theme! 
Hey again!
header#top nav > ul > li.megamenu > ul ul li a:hover, header#top nav > ul > li.megamenu > ul ul li.current-menu-item a {

Hi!
I have a “Our activities” part in my menu and two sub-parts of “Our Activities”, which are “Football” and “Basketball” but I don’t have a page for only “Our Activities” but it’s possible to click on it from the menu.
How to remove this possibility? But keep the “Football” and “Basketball” sub-menu when a user put his cursor onto “Our Activities”?
Many thanks!!!
Hey Barou_WP!
In Appearances > Menus in your admin panel just create a custom menu item link and for the url add ”#” 
Cheers

Hey!
You can import the dummy data if you haven’t already to get all of the pages seen on the demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_wKJFYCZN1U&index=1&list=PLL7Ay33CTsIAVMPtw3KPsAwDzr_XoVLeq after you do that you can then name them, order them and delete ones you don’t need 
Cheers
I see,i guess I imported a wrong dummy data, thanks alot!
You’re welcome 
Can you tell me how to change the title for the Teams Members section ‘OUR TEAM’ to ‘OUR LEADERS’?
Hey johnball,
The label is configurable right inside of the Visual Composer element for that
Cheers
Ah! Got it. Thank you.
You’re welcome 
Hey, this theme is awesome but one thing i wondered if there’s a easy way to upload for portfolio without creating each items. Like a where i don’t have to create each portfolio item to able add one pic each.. I just wanted to able to upload 30 photos in once and have it load in instead upload each of them when i has 300 photos to share :/ its taking too forever. That where i dont has much time to able upload one a time.
So hope hear from you soon and thanks!
Hey level5!
You can use the visual composer image gallery for that – just select the portfolio style when configuring it 
Cheers
Hey thanks for replying back quickly..
Um i already on the visual composer using the add elements as portfolio and all… But i don’t want do the Portfolio add new part cause you has to create one new portfolio and add one image with it..
I was trying to say that are there’s a way i can upload lot pics to “media library” and edit the images on media library as “uploaded to” instead of me have to click “adding new portfolio” then add image one a time on each of new portfolio?
Any Help or tutorials by how do that more clearly will be nice!
I’m just confused by what u trying to point me to.. so hope hear from you soon & thank you!
Hey again! I meant the actual “Image Gallery” element, not the portfolio element http://i.imgur.com/apOlagn.jpg 
Ohh Thanks buddy!!
You’re welcome 
Hi Team ThemeNectar,
are you able to reproduce/solve the following bug (Bounce back to top on android when using carousel)?
- Create carousel
- Add a few carousel items (e.g.: pie charts)
- Load page on Chrome for Android and scroll down from top
- You see the page scrolling and immediately bouncing back to top
I hope you can help me!
Regards Marcel
Hey Marcel,
Could you kindly share your URL so I can verify the other options you may have active?
Cheers
There is another buggy behavior on the same site on dektop (tested with chrome/firefox):
- Load Website in low width window (responsive)
- Make the window wider
- Headings in Nectar slider disappear
- Animated elements get stuck
Thanks for your support!
- Load page in chrome for android
- Buttons with linked URLs within boxed styled columns (animated) don’t respond to touch. The links do not load.
I would appreciate your help!
Cheers Marcel
I have found a workaround for the above mentioned bug by adding a surrounding a href to the buttons.
You can still test the bug-behavior on the third, yellow ComMedia-Button. I did not apply that workaround to that one.
Hey eyevolution, thanks for mentioning the bugs – will look into them today 
Great, thank you! I’m looking forward to hearing from you soon 
I’ll keep you posted 
Hey guys! Is there any news on those bugs?
I have one more for you :o) Favicon, Logo and GoogleMaps Custom image uploaded within your admin-panel seem to be served via HTTP only. Thus I get “insecure ressources loaded” notification on SSL secured sites. Do you have a Quickfix for me?
Thanks!
Images loaded within nectar slider are affected as well: always HTTP
Hi, sorry, but I do not install single plugins to fix implementation bugs. I think you have an understanding for that.
The bug has probably to do with this constant in wp-config that is often incorrectly in use.define('WP_CONTENT_URL', 'http://........")
Don’t know if this bug here is caused by wordpress core functions.
Here is a dirty quickfix for functions.php that patches the ressource error regarding the header logos.
function nectar_options_img($image_url){
$image_id = fjarrett_get_attachment_id_from_url( $image_url );
if(!is_null($image_id) && !empty($image_id)) {
$image = wp_get_attachment_image_src($image_id, 'full');
return $image[0];
} else {
return is_ssl() ? preg_replace("/^http:/i", "https:", $image_url) : $image_url;
}
}
This bug is all about ressources that are related to wp-content. Do you have an idea if there is a function that handles all images in your code?
Cheers, Marcel
This has got to be something simple. I’d like my navigation bar/menu to be white in mobile view before scrolling down. Currently it’s a dark gray. www.timharman.com
Hey! Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:

Hello,
Sorry if my question is stupid, but I can’t find how to make portfolio sorting text (Custom Portfolio Page Sortable Text) to be bilingual.
Thanks in advance!
The same question is about bilingual usage of “ALL” option in Portfolio Sorting. 10x
I found another issue – seems that portfolio sorting doesn’t work when all the categories are written on Bulgarian (Cyrillic Characters). When switch to English it works great.
Maybe I am totally wrong, but seems that Portfolio Module can not be used with 2 or more languages. For example I can set “Main Portfolio Page URL” (in Salient/Portfolio section) only for one language
Hey mucho_mano,
1. You’d need to open the file which contains those to add them into the .po file http://wpml.org/forums/topic/how-to-translate-a-variable-in-my-theme/ the file to look in will be nectar/tinymce/shortcode-processing.php 
3. You can keep the text using Cyrillic characters, but make the slugs for the categories english and it should work
4. You don’t need to set that URL – it can be overwritten in each project via the project configuration box
Cheers
Hi again,
And thanks for the quick reply.
1. So, I have tried to do it, but seems I am doing something wrong:
a. I have opened file /salient/nectar/tinymce/shortcode-processing.php and found that “All” appears on 3 line:
<span id=”current-category”><?php echo __(‘All’, NECTAR_THEME_NAME); ?></span>
<li><a href=”#” data-filter=””><?php echo __(‘All’, NECTAR_THEME_NAME); ?></a></li>
<li><a href=”#” data-filter=””><?php echo __(‘All’, NECTAR_THEME_NAME); ?></a></li>
b. Duplicated this file /salient/lang/default.po and renamed to bg_BG.po (since I want to make Bulgarian translation)
c. Add the lines bellow in my file bg_BG.po and upload it in the same folder, where default.po is located:
- @ js_composer
#: ../nectar/tinymce/shortcode-processing.php:1043
#: ../nectar/tinymce/shortcode-processing.php:1046
#: ../nectar/tinymce/shortcode-processing.php:1056
msgid “??????”
msgstr ””
Also tried this:
- @ js_composer
#: ../nectar/tinymce/shortcode-processing.php:1043
#: ../nectar/tinymce/shortcode-processing.php:1046
#: ../nectar/tinymce/shortcode-processing.php:1056
msgid “All”
msgstr “??????”
“??????” (Bulgarian) means “All”
Unfortunately both tries doesn’t work
3. Fixed – 10x
4. Yeah I saw that and did it. It works, but I have another issue now:
a. Let say I have 2 items in Bulgarian version of Portfolio (its slug is “???????”) and another 2 items in English version of portfolio (its slug is “portfolio”). When I am on the page of some English item and navigate through the items, using header’s arrows everything is OK. But when I am on the page of some Bulgarian item and navigate through the items, it shows me not only Bulgarian items, but English items too. In other words I can navigate not through 2 items, but 4 items.
Maybe the problem comes from the fact that all the items (both Bulgarian and English) have the same parent slug:
/portfolio/bulgarian_item_one
/portfolio/bulgarian_item_two
/portfolio/english_item_one
/portfolio/english_item_two
Maybe it must be:
/???????/bulgarian_item_one
/???????/bulgarian_item_two
/portfolio/english_item_one
/portfolio/english_item_two
I have tried to create one new item as part of Bulgarian Portfolio, but I can’t change its parent slug, it is always “portfolio” no matter what language I choose.
Thanks in advance! 
Please ignore point 4 it is fixed. Only point 1 is not fixed yet 
Hey again! Could you kindly share your URL to the portfolio page so I can check the setup?
Hi ThemeNectar,
On a page, I’d like to have my NectarSlider in the middle of the page, not on top. I moved it thanks to the visual composer but it changes nothing, is it possible?
Same thing, I can’t have 2 theme nectar slider into the same page, it doesn’t work. How can I do it?
Thanks!
Hey!
Make sure you don’t have the parallax option enabled for the ones which are not going to display at the top
Hi Nectar. A few questions please. When clicking on a blog category name or blog author name, the results are displaying in standard blog format. 1) Is there a way to display the results in a masonry view instead? If not, can this please be added some way? 2) I noticed in the standard blog results, the featured image is displayed, along with other images in the post, which makes the results look messy. Is there a way to display only the featured image? 3) Is there a way to make the featured image smaller on the results page? Thanks as always for your help.
Hey,
1. Yes – change the blog layout to the masonry one in your theme options panel > blog tab
2. Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
.article-content-wrap img {
display: none!Important;
}
3. How much smaller did you want it and how were you thinking it should be aligned?
