Hello Nectar,
So to start – thank you for the great theme. I noticed you answered someone’s question on how to change the portfolio filter order. I am not able to find those exact php folders mentioned.
Hey gaborgerecs,
You’d have to modify the wp_list_categories functions inside of the shortcode-processing.php file which is located in the nectar/tinymce directory 
Cheers
The web developer who started my site – set up a child theme, and I believe this has made things a little less straight-forward.
Are you willing to look at my site and help direct me on how to change the portfolio filter order? http://erectorsets.wpengine.com/portfolio/
Never-mind. It took a while but this plugin helped a lot. http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/taxonomy-terms-order/
Hey – glad you sorted it out
Hello Themenectar,
thank you for your awesome work on Salient !
My client needs lots of customisation, and most css code can be found here, but there’s one thing I can’t seem to find:
I’m using portfolio style 1 “Meta below with thumbs on hover”. On mobile, there’s no vertical space between the items. Would it be possible to add some vertical spacing there?

Hey!
Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
@media only screen and (max-width:1000px) {
html body .default-style .portfolio-items .col.elastic-portfolio-item {
margin-bottom: 25px!important;
}
}
Cheers
Thanks for your support!
You’re welcome
Hi Team ThemeNectar, as you can see I am well on my way; bit.ly/b-excited.
I have been to the moon and back but I could use help with the following;
1. I have only the .webm format provided in the nectar slider for the video on the homepage and it gives two audio tracks. How to fix this? ( I don’t even have the two recommended formats webm AND mp4 enabled) and is it possible to enable the audio not until on ‘mouse over’?
2. How to change the grey into white behind the black blocks ( huren, events, ... ) and increase the size of the blocks?
3. the third and fourth portfolio item under pers. are both off. the third only a few pixels and the fourth a lot. how to make ‘em fit?
4. the team. and the contact form both have this flip in effect, I would like to remove this. How to?
I look forward to your answers, thanks in advance.
2.
Hey,
1. Checking your URL I can only hear the audio playing once – did you have the loop option on before by chance?2
2. Are you trying to change the BG color on the menu item itself or am I misunderstanding the mod you’re after
3. Use the featured image instead of the custom thumbnail option and ensure the images are at least 600×400
4. Edit the columns which hold those elements and change the animation to off
I have a problem with the Slide Out Widget Area. I’ve put a “Tags” widget in there, but it doesn’t style the way it does like it does on the rest of the page.
It has the default, ugly way of displaying the Tags. Any way I can fix this?
Nevermind. I fixed it but using the following code in the child themes CSS file:
#slide-out-widget-area .widget .tagcloud a, .post-tags a {
background-color: #333;
color: #FFF !important;
cursor: pointer;
display: inline-block;
float: left;
line-height: 22px;
margin: 3px 3px 0px 0px;
font-size: 8pt !important;
padding: 5px 7px;
position: relative;
text-transform: capitalize;
transition: all 0.2s linear 0s;
border-radius: 2px;
}
Hey – glad you sorted it
Hey guys, i’m using a background on my page, is there any way to set opacity on that background ?
Hey! How are you setting the page BG? If you can share the URL to the page I’d be glad to assist
Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
.wpb_row .row-bg, .full-width-section .row-bg {
opacity: 0.4!important;
}
Hey kosticfilms, if it is possible to automatically do that it would require a plugin since Salient only inserts an open graph tag for the featured image by default
Yes that would be great! We also need ability to share with e-mail option as well .Is that possible and how much that would cost ? Thannks
It would require some custom development if you can’t find a suitable plugin – if you need someone to assist I would check out Envato Studio in regards
It would be great if you could help us with that it is important for us to have at list videos that we can link .How soon you can find plug in? Thanks
This plugin might have a video open graph tag option: https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-open-graph/
Hi we installed that plug in but it is still sharing only picture not video . Can you do that from with in ? This is link of the page : http://kosticfilms.com/?p=20
I would like the side widget part to come out on a normal button, or I want to change the Icon into a text / or different PNG picture.
How could I make a normal button link to the action? And How can I change the Icon on the top left.
my site is: http://www.hansarhotel.com/Thanks a lot, site is almost finished but really want to change this first.
Hey, you’d need to modify the header.php file in regards. Check out the slide-out-widget-area-toggle section
so there is no link I can give a button to give the action to call out the side widget?
and how would I change it in the Header.php file?
Look for “slide-out-widget-area-toggle” to end up at the right place – the issue with using css only is that you’d need to also delete all the styling in place for the animation it does when it opens
I don’t want to delete it, I want to be able to change the icon. Or I want to assign the action to open the side widget to a normal button in the top menu. In my case them name would be “book now” then the side widget should open and the options to book the room should appear. the 3 stripes do not clear enough what the button implies.
Open up the header.php file located in your theme directory and edit this:
<div> <a href="#sidewidgetarea" class="closed"> <span> <i class="lines-button x2"> <i class="lines" /> </i> </span> </a> </div>
to this:
<div> <a href="#sidewidgetarea" class="closed"> <span> Book Now </span> </a> </div>
I tried this, but then the text does not fit, also the a herf=”#sidewidgetarea” does not work if i add it to a normal button. How can I do that? because then it would look more together.
http://www.hansarhotel.com/right now i changed the Stylesheet a bit so i can see the text, but I can not change it to look and behave the same as the other buttons.
So please tell me how to make a button in menu options that would open the side widget. which link should it have. because I can not find the one that works. Thanks a lot!
Hey again! Add this as well into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
header#top nav ul .slide-out-widget-area-toggle a {
width: 84px!important;
margin-top: 4px !important;
}
#header-outer:not(.transparent) header#top nav ul .slide-out-widget-area-toggle a {
color: #000 !important;
}
thanks.
You’re welcome
how would i change the font size and font for this part? because now it seems to be slightly different then the other menu parts.
The selector for it is:
header#top nav ul .slide-out-widget-area-toggle ahowever I don’t see it display different currently to write a sample rule for you
Hi, I still would like to also have normal buttons which can call out the side bar, see http://www.hansarhotel.com/ and scroll down there is a “book now” button which I want to link to open the side bar. please let me know the script / link to use in order to make this happen. thanks a lot already!
Hey,
You’d need to open the init.js file and add your button selectors into the slide out widget area event, just search for “Slide Out Widget Area” to end up at the right location
Cheers
i can open the file and see that part, but what should I copy or add?
I want to have a normal button on the site which would open the side widget. I do not know what you mean with “button selectors”
This is the line to modify,
$('body').on('click','.slide-out-widget-area-toggle a.closed:not(.animating)',function(){
and you’d need to add a new class such as
$('body').on('click','.slide-out-widget-area-toggle a.closed:not(.animating), .button-link .nectar-button',function(){
Now just give your column holding the button a class of “button-link” and it should work
For some reason, all the parallax sections on my site are no longer the content inside the parallax area. Just started about a week ago. No new plugins added or anything. Very strange, was working fine. Any example page is http://fcstldev.wpengine.com/sunsethills/. The parallax section is below the map section. Can send you my login info if you need it. Thanks!
Hey!
Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
.col {
z-index: 10;
}
Gracias!!!! That worked!
Cheers
Hi,
Been doing a lot of tweaking on my site and I have some few questions. 1. How do I add a sidebar on my homepage (currently set to a blog) 2. How do I add a sidebar on a regular page.
Thanks
Hey,
1. You can choose the blog layout in your theme options panel > blog tab. You can then add widgets to your sidebar in the Appearances > widget area of your admin panel
2. You can choose the sidebar layout for a regular page in the page attributes box when editing your page
Got it. Thanks
You’re welcome
Hi again,
Im having problems with the Tabs [ tabbed content ] module. The tab name will not change. Im able to open the popup that has the field with the tab name, but it does not change when I save it.
UPDATED: Actually, it does save properly after I update the page. It just doesn’t visually update in real time after closing the pop up window. just an fyi, maybe a small bug.
Hey – thanks for pointing this out!
Hi) Help me, please. 3 eassy questions: 1-2. Menu – font and position like this: http://themeforest.net/item/salient-responsive-multipurpose-theme/full_screen_preview/4363266 How can I move to the center and have a bold font without changing “Body” tag? 3. Moving slider like this: http://themeforest.net/item/salient-responsive-multipurpose-theme/full_screen_preview/4363266 How to do it?) It’s really cool!
Thanks a lot!
Hey,
1. There’s an option for you to choose the header layout in your header options tab via the Salient options panel in the latest release. Also you can choose the font family (the one on the demo is lovelo) for the navigation in the typography options tab
3. The URL You’ve linked is just leading to the home page on the demo – to link to a specific page try starting from here: themenectar.com/demo/salient-frostwave
Cheers
Thank you for your answer, but…
1. I can only choose header layout between “Standart Heeader” or “Header With Secondary Navigation”. Where can I find “Center”/”Right” option? 2. About the lovelo – unfortunately, I can only choose “Regular” font style for this font (e.g. the Open Sans font allows wide changing of styles – Itallic, 800, 700…)
It’s typical question, I hope – how to get bold fonts in Menu with center alignment… (like this http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-one-page/)
3. So I mean this effect: http://www.americanwhitewater.com/dev/
Hey!
1. If you’re not seeing the option for “header layout” http://i.imgur.com/sHSP5SZ.jpg you probably just need to update your version of the theme
2. Lovelo is only available in one weight, but it’s already bold and uppercase as the demo shows
3. That’s the portfolio element with the Title overlaid w/ zoom effect on hover
1. Thank you, upgrade and ok! 2. Could I use Open Sans Light for navigation? I can’t find it in menu… 3. I’s like to have this effect with my Nectar Slider…Is it possible? I saw some examples of it but can’t find now(
Hey!
2. You have to choose “Open Sans’ and then 300 for the weight
3. Unfortunately that’s not available for the Nectar Slider – if someone did that effect on it, it must have been some custom development
Have not had any plugin conflicts until installing the WPMU DEV Jobs & Experts plugin. When activated, the Nectar Slider admin controls are not functioning as expected – the “Image” and “Video” background button images in the individual slide admin disappear leaving only the text links, which do not work. Have any thoughts on this issue related to the theme…? (I have also advised the plugin maker.) Thanks in advance.
Hey Gr8Meta4! There most likely is a javascript conflict occurring but I would need to test with the plugin to see where it’s coming from
Hi Theme Nectar, unsure what is going on buy my icon wont load when I upload it and place in the lat & long on my google map?
Any chance you could help? Cheers, Chris
Page is below..
http://christopherdodson.co/?page_id=26Hey Chris,
Make sure you’re on the latest release of the theme to solve that issue
Cheers
Is it possible to use images in the menus rather than text? I want to have a Home image rather than the actual word. Regards
Hey, that would require some css – you could add a class onto the menu item and then target it specifically with css to add the image and remove the text
Hey guys,
If you go to my site here: LINK
When you scroll down the logo fades in (top left), but only after you scroll past the first section. Is there a way to make it fade in sooner?
Hey – if you check the box for exclude the row from using the header bg inherit it should solve the issue
Awesome thank you! Also, is there an option for a non fixed header?
You could achieve that with custom css – add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
@media only screen and (min-width: 1000px) {
#header-outer {
position: absolute!important;
}
}

Hello Dear Team,
Today I try to download the latest version of the theme purchased. But the one proposed by Theme forest version is v3.6.2 Avada – Responsive Multi-Purpose Theme .
Do you know why ?
Best Regards.
My mistake… The answer was in the question. Since the Salient discovery I lack sleep. Sorry
No worries
Not sure what happened but the blog posts semi disappeared?? http://www.compassprep.com/the-trembling-state-of-college-admission-tests/
Please help!
Dave
Since my initial post, I updated the theme to the latest version hoping it would fix the issue and am still experiencing missing featured images and/or missing text within the posts.
Any ideas?
Hey – are the blog posts supposed to appear on the “blog” page? Currently I can only see embeds you’ve done in a two col layout
Not 100% clear on what you mean..
But this post for example, has all the text and a featured image but the actual post doesn’t display all of that. Every post was working perfectly w/ the current setup before this past weekend. Can you advise on how to properly post and blog?
http://www.compassprep.com/the-trembling-state-of-college-admission-tests/Hey again!
I’m seeing that you have the excerpt option on which strips out all of the text beyond a certain character limit – did you unintentionally activate that in your options panel?
Does the clever human behind Nectar know how to remove the grey background on PDF viewer when inserted using the iFrame method?
http://www.minus-akasse.peterpackroff.dk/1-juli-2014-svar-paa-rykker/?preview=true&preview_id=1604&preview_nonce=d6b9218cae&post_format=quoteHey – I can’t seem to access that URL, could you verify it’s correct?
Ah sorry – I gave you the Preview URL… http://www.minus-akasse.peterpackroff.dk/1-juli-2014-svar-paa-rykker/
Hey again! Unfortunately you can’t target elements inside of an iframe embed with css – you’d need to pass the attribute onto the embed itself if wherever you’re adding that from allows them at all
oh.. 
thanks anyway. Ill send Adobe an email ;0)
You’re welcome
Hi there, what code do I need to use to disable the sticky header without messing any of the other sections up? Cheers
Hey,
@media only screen and (min-width: 1000px) {
#header-outer {
position: absolute!important;
}
}
Hello my friend the new slide out widget area is totally awesome. I had a question though, how can I give it a label instead of the image/css that is currently being used please?
Hey!
You’d need to modify the header.php file at the slide-out-widget-area-toggle section
