I have tried adding the button shortcode. But, the button icons do not appear. What should I do to fix the issue? The website is www.actifyme.com
Thank you!
nevermind
Hey – glad you found the answer 
Hi guys,
What is the code I can use to play YouTube video as a pop up from a text link or button? I am trying this WATCH VIDEO and it gives me “Image cannot be loaded. Make sure the path is correct and image exist” but on demo page http://themenectar.com/demo/salient when one clicks on ‘BUY A BEER INSTEAD’ YouTube video is popping up fine. Any advise?
Hey cleardesignnz,
Use 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>
Cheers
Hi there,
I have a quick question regarding the testimonial slider. How do I get rid of the quotes? I have edited shortcode-processing.php to
return ‘
’; }’.$quote.’
’. ‘ ? ’.$name.’
but the pesky quotes are still there. Any ideas?
Thanks, Erica
Hey Erica,
Edit the nectar/nectar-vc-addons/vc_templates/testimonial.php file in regards
Cheers
You guys rock!
You’re welcome
Is it possible to use the same styling for pagination used in portfolio for standard blog posts…?
Hey Gr8Meta4,
As of now you’d have to copy the code from the single-portfolio.php and paste it into the single.php file
Cheers
Hello, I purchased the theme but I can’t upload to wordpress. There is this error:
“Unpacking the package…
Installing the theme…
The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet.
Theme install failed.”
I’ve search this folder but there isn’t. How can I do to upload the them? Thanks in advance
I’ve just resolved it XD
Hey – glad to hear
Hey Nectar, Great theme, looking forward to purchasing your new ones.
I’ve looked through here for info on making my navigation menu transparent and though you’ve explained it, I’m having trouble finding the line in init.js as you’ve explained here:
1. } 2. You’d need to open the init.js file located in the js folder of your theme and remove this line: if($(’#header-outer’).attr(‘data-transparent-header’) == ‘true’) $(’#header-outer’).removeClass(‘transparent’);
html body #header-outer.transparent[data-transparent-header="true"] {
border-bottom: none!important;The site is done except for this little bump and I’m afraid that I’ll ruin the whole thing if i do it wrong.
Also, will this technique make my logo transparent? I don’t want to make my logo transparent, just the navigation background. If you take a look at the site, i think you’ll see what I mean
http://www.miamichurchggcc.comI want to keep the logo and eliminate the background color on the navigation. Thanks in advance for you help theme nectar. Keep making awesome stuff!
P.S. and just a side question- Is it possible to implement the slider text features into the nav bar to keep text sliding as the viewer scrolls?
also, how can i place the logo in the center of the navigation menu without the nav bar trying to compensate for where the menu links would be? Ex: I don’t want the large space on the bottom of the logo when i choose the center feature
I used this code temporarily but it casts a drop shadow which looks like a line running across the page
html body #header-outer.transparent[data-transparent-header=”true”], html body #header-outer { background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.0)!important; }
is it possible to keep it how it looks (transparent with the logo and without the line) but make it so that i can click through it? its currently like an invisible wall which at the moment is fine but I would like to make the space functional if possible
Hey DrunkDrummer,
Add this into the custom css box as well:
html body #header-outer.transparent[data-transparent-header="true"], html body #header-outer {
background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.0)!important;
box-shadow: none!important;
width: 250px!important;
}
Cheers
Hey there, thank you for the great theme! Loving the multiple options available! One question that, as I can see here, has been discussed a few times: I have a client who really wants to have captions and social sharing inside the lightbox view. I would like to check if you have plans on building in in the nearer future.
Another way: Would it be possible for me to use another Lightbox plugin? I read that might be difficult?
Thax for your help! Stefan
Hey Stefan,
You could indeed use another lightbox plugin but if you wanted to replace the current one on portfolio items it would take some custom modding to the files – unfortunately I can’t give an eta on the feature at this time though
Cheers
Hey, thanx for the reply! We are using an image gallery in grid style view (is that the portfolio items you meant?). I tried to get some other Lightboxes running, but can’t get them to work. Is there a simple trick to override the PrettyPhoto?
I also had a look into prettyPhoto.js to check where to make changes to display captions and social items. But I am not the Pro to do that easily. As I understood the code, both would be included basically, but they are not displayed…
Any quick tips or ideas? Thank you!
Hey again!
1. If you wanted to replace the prettyphoto function for the portfolio you’d need to modify the shortcode-processing.php located in the nectar/tinymce directory to call your new plugin – but it should work normally elsewhere
2. The code for prettyphoto is located in the style.css and the init.js files – just search for prettyphoto to end up at the right places
Cheers
Super! Thanx!
You’re welcome
Suggestion: The Padding and also logo on scroll should be able to be set seperately. E.g. my logo is tall and short, but on small header (upon scroll) it would look better if it could be replaced with a wider, less tall logo. Do you know what I mean? + large padding is necessary for the large logo, but looks bad in use with the small logo.
Hey Peter,
Thanks for the suggestion
Cheers
Hi,
My link is http://designova.ca/firm/ 1.I have created a sub menu for my firm page using simple html.. Can you please tell me how to make them the same style as Main menu but in white mode (menu is in dark mode) and align right like the main menu? 2. Also right now the sub menu’s font size on mobile is too big. Is there a way to make them appeal in one row only on a vertical mobile view? 3. Is there a way to put two different logos on top right with one link to my English version and one link to my Chinese version? 4. Can you tell me how to change the back ground color of project page only? Thank you very much~
Hey,
1. Take it out of the h4 tag and then add this into your custom css box in the Salient options panel:
div#FirmSubMenu {
float: right;
}
2.
@media only screen and (max-width: 690px) {
div#FirmSubMenu a {
display: block;
float: none!important;
width: 100%!important;
}
}
3. You’d need to add them in the header.php file
4. Use VIsual Composer and edit the row which holds your portfolio element – change it to full width background and set the color/padding there
Cheers
Hi the css you gave me:
header#top .sf-menu li.custom-color-1 ul li a { background-color: #000!important; }
It colours my background completely. But i only change the hover color instead?
Hey logisticsexecutive,
change it to:
header#top .sf-menu li.custom-color-1 ul li a:hover { background-color: #000!important; }
Cheers
Can we create a custom menu per page? Because there’s some page I would like to use the one page feature to show product (landing page) And add a little home button to the new menu to come back to it.
Also, can we add icon to the menu.
Thank you.
Hey – that would either some custom development to the header.php file or the use of a plugin such as https://wordpress.org/plugins/page-specific-menu-items/
thank you. Is it possible to add a little icon to the menu when there’s more than one option like we can see here: http://www.helpscout.net
Hey again, if you’re using the default skin in your general settings tab you’ll get those arrows by default for dropdowns
what would be the kind of code I should add to the php file to setup a different menu on a single page on my website instead of creating a subdomain and create a landing page. Would be better to have everything in one wordpress installation because the plugin doesn’t seems to be really useful. Thank you.
Hey,
In the header.php file you could add a conditional such as
<?php
if(is_page('Home')) {
<ul class="sf-menu">
<?php
if(has_nav_menu('top_nav')) {
wp_nav_menu( array('walker' => new Nectar_Arrow_Walker_Nav_Menu, 'theme_location' => 'top_nav', 'container' => '', 'items_wrap' => '%3$s' ) );
}
elseif($sideWidgetArea != '1') {
echo ' <li><a href="">No menu assigned!</a>';
}
?>
</ul>
} else {
/* other menu here */
}
?>
Cheers
Hello,
I’m having a small issue with the portfolio. I’m sure it’s a simple fix, just not sure where to go. When viewing an individual portfolio project, the 4 square on the left of the header is giving me a dead link, redirecting me to a 404, how can I set that to link back to the portfolio page?
Thanks!
Hey! You can define it in your portfolio options tab in the Salient options panel
Cheers
Hello,
I am unable to set two separate portfolios rows on one page. I wanted to do one portfolio group of 3 columns (large thumbnails) then below have a 4 columns (smaller thumbnails) which includes all the portfolio items along with horizontal sort filter. However when I set that, the sort filter will not work for the 4 columns portfolio items. It just have one group instead of all and includes the wrong group labels as well. Anyhow you can help me with this? Thanks!
Hey skstuart!
currently you can only have one sortable portfolio per page but that’s a limitation that will be lifted in future updates
Cheers
Hello,
Can you please help me with targeting custom CSS to elements? I’m assigning extra classes and adding the appropriate custom CSS, but nothing is happening!? I set up a custom footer text widget with div ID, complete with complimentary CSS yesterday and it worked. I come back to the page today…I haven’t changed anything…and now the element is no longer custom styled. When I firebug it, the ID is there, but the CSS is not. I have tried to apply CSS to other elements as well, and same thing, I can see the class I assigned to it in firebug but no applied CSS. Why is this happening? What am I missing with trying to target these elements in the theme to apply styling?
Also, parallax isn’t working when I view in Explorer 11..?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Okay, the theme doesn’t seem to be calling any of my custom CSS now on any of the pages….and it was yesterday..? Any idea what’s going on here?
Hey,
could you kindly open a private ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can see why that’s occurring? http://themenectar.ticksy.com/
Cheers
Hi,
when can I expect an update? I will wait for it, because I would love to have more example demo sites 
How easy would it be to create a site like that: www.takethat.com
? 0r can I create an even better site with your Theme?
nice weekend,
Tom
Hey Tom,
An update is coming very soon which will bring a new demo – also, for the most part you could create a similar site
Hi there,
I watched your video on Importing Dummy Data & First Steps, but I don’t seem to have the Dummy Data from the zip file of the downloaded theme. Would it be under a different name or is it no longer available?
I’ve been having troubles will the page builder as well, it just looks like my old page builder from Wordpress. It seems like I’m missing some of the important features from Salient theme and I’m not sure where to find it. For example, there’s the “Author” section that comes after my blogs, but I don’t know where to go to fill in that content or picture.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Hey!
could you kindly open a ticket in regards so I can see why you don’t have the page builder? The dummy data files are still located inside of the main download from ThemeForest, but there are different sets now with corresponding names to the demos shown
Cheers
Hey!
Yeah I managed to work through this, but now there’s a more pressing issue. I’ve already posted to the ticket so you can just reply to me there.
Thanks!
Hey,
Ok will do
Cheers
hi two question.
on template one page, the style portfolio is fixed or can change view with portfolio style four for example??
I can bring home on single page parallax, a video in backgroud opening?
thema on a single page, scroll the menu is done by id or shortcode?
Best regards
Hey giampietro75,
1. You can use whatever portfolio style you like
2. You can indeed use a video background for the parallax Nectar Slider at the top of any page
3. For one page scrolling you use id’s
Cheers
When is the update to fix the buttons on Gravity Forms page breaks due? Is there a code I could use to fix this myself? It’s a pretty high priority for me
Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel to quickfix it for now:
input[type=submit], button[type=submit], input[type="button"] {
background-color: #333333;
padding: 7px 11px;
border: none;
color: #fff;
cursor: pointer;
transition: all 0.2s linear 0s;
-moz-transition: all 0.2s linear 0s;
-webkit-transition: all 0.2s linear 0s;
-o-transition: all 0.2s linear 0s;
width: auto;
font-size: 12px;
border-radius: 2px;
-moz-border-radius: 2px;
-webkit-border-radius: 2px;
-o-border-radius: 2px;
}
input[type=submit]:hover, button[type=submit]:hover, input[type="button"]:hover {
background-color: #27CFC3;
}
Didn’t work. I’m talking about the “next” button for a page break, not the submit button.
Thanks for all your hard work on this theme!
Hey again! Could you kindly share the URL in regards that shows the issue so I can check it out more?
Hello. I installed the theme but I got one question though. Is it possible to change the order of the items in the portfolio?
Without changing the date…
Yes – you can use this in regards https://wordpress.org/plugins/intuitive-custom-post-order/
Sorry but one more… With regard to the full-width posts. I’d like to setup something like a conditional rule where posts in a category like ‘Brands’ would display full-width (no sidebar) while all other posts display as they were. I’m all up for seeing how I can do this, and it’s going to prove a lot more interesting trying to get this working in a child theme!!
Thanks in advance
Hey again.
You’d need to modify the single.php file in regards which would be child theme compatible
Cheers
