I would like the theme was in Spanish also

Hey maravediss,

the theme comes ready to translate via the .po file into any language but a pre translated version is not included unfortunately.

Hello Nectar, I bought this theme and since I am only version 2.6. How come I do not have a theme updates, is not it automatic? What should I do to update my theme Salient??

Hey, please see my response to your previous comment in regards Cheers

Hi Nectar Hello I have written to you to tell you that I bought this theme there are 6 months while you are at version 5, my website I am only version 2.6. Does the updates are not automatic? What should I do to my Salient update?

Thank you and good to you!

You can either update by downloading the theme again from themeforest and reuploading it to your server via the wp admin dashboard in Appearance > themes or by using FTP to delete your current theme and replace it with the latest version. Alternatively you could use the Envato plugin http://premium.wpmudev.org/blog/how-to-update-themeforest-themes-with-the-envato-wordpress-toolkit/

Helle Nectar, Thank you for your reply. How will I still download the theme with a new purchase or just the same purchase? The second solution is to use a plugin evanto? How it works please? Thank you and good to you!

Hey, you can redownload the theme from your downloads tab in your ThemeForest account :)

Hi,

I’m really liking this theme and am taking my time learning the in’s and out’s of it while I make my site.

my question is I have a full width background row that has an infographic as the background. I made the row a 2/3 +1/3 split and made the 1/3 column my text for the info graphic. The problem is I need that column to be responsive but since the first 2/3 column is blank, it doesn’t move under the infographic when sizing down.

Do I need to create some blank space in the empty column before it will be responsive?

Thanks

Hey,

if you can get away with using a full width content row type instead with the option enabled to ensure all columns are equal height this will happen naturally. The alternative would indeed be to either use a divider in that column with a fixed height or use css to give the column height on the mobile display

Hi nectar, I’ve a big problem with theme. I try to create a nectar slider to replace the home slider. In the same time I’ve accidentally deleted the page HOME, I restore it but now when I enter the website the homepage is different: displays the blog page, while the blog page (by clicking it) is empty. How can I fix?

Hey creativeradian,

check out your Settings > Reading section of the admin panel to reassign the front/post pages.

Cheers

Hey Them Nectar,

I just want to know if it is possible to have a an animated gif logo over my video layer in nectar slider? I believe I have seen it somewhere before. Thanks mucho

I found where I have seen this : http://www.beyondthevalley.com.au/

Hey,

Yes – you can add your gif into the caption field on your desired slide like so:

<img src="your-img.gif" />

Cheers

Hello!

In the Nectar slider, is it possible to add the caption background to both the Heading and Caption as one whole boxed, semi-transparent background, instead of having just the caption with the background or having the caption and the Heading each with their own separate background?

Thanks! You guys are truly awesome with this theme!

Hey,

HTML will work in the caption field – if you can share your URL in regards I’d be glad to assist with the BG separation issue

Cheers

Oh that would be fantastic, thanks!!

Hey again!

Add this into your custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:

body .swiper-slide .content h2 {
   line-height: 60px!important;
}

Greetings…can you please advise if Salient and its mega menu meet the Ubermenu requirements here:

http://sevenspark.com/docs/ubermenu-3/requirements

If the mega menu is integrated into Salient, is there any change required if installing Uber to add images to the mega menu?

Nevermind…found their integration notes…

Hey,

Glad you found the solution :)

Cheers

Hi Nectar,

I have a serious problem with setting up nectar sliders to match Retina Resolutions (5k or 4k). I load images with 4000 px width and all seems to be allright (Desktop), but iPad Retina doesn’t show the pics. I’ve tested along with other pics and it seems that a wider resolution than 2000 px will not be displayed in Safari on iPad Retina. I’ve been testing background pics with 3000 px and they also won’t be displayed at all (So the truth is after having googled the problem that NO larger images than 2000 px will be displayed – that is in fact is a restriction of iPAD Retina).

So how can I satisfy 5k Retina iMAC Display Resolutions? It could be extremly useful if there would be an opinion to load high AND low resolution pics (like the logo and logo retina) on nectar sliders. F.e. a pic up to 2000 px Monitor resolution and one pic for Hi DPI Monitors. A Media Query would be necessary and a retina.js too. But I think that’s future and maybe the 6k Displays is on the way … This would be also a great feature for every pic placed into a page (You give the choice to define a resolution if you place a gallery/slider – so it would be great if you are able to define two – one retina and one “normal” res.)

So is it possible to implementate this feature in the next release? 2000 px slider pics doens’t look great on 5k iMacs

What do you think about it and is there a workaround now?

Thanks

Markus

Hey Markus,

By default mobile devices in the default browser might have issues loading an image that big but the workaround for now wold require some custom development (switching image sizes which are loaded for each device) This idea to implement a retina workaround to satisfy desktop and mobile is already on the wishlist to avoid having to use a plugin.

Hello Theme Nectar,

I like your theme alot. I’m almost finished with setting up the website. I got two questions left: 1. In which file can I find ‘Log out’? I want to change it in another language.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/zenp1qyep8o0hem/voorbeeld.png?dl=0

2. Where can I find the sidemenu of the blog? I want to remove the one with the ‘Pages’.

Hey Jeltje!

1. It’s a string in your .po file that you can edit in the same way as any other string, but if you want to mod it directly check out the comment.php file in your Salient theme directory

2. Please check out the appearance > widgets section of your admin panel

Cheers

Thank you!

You’re welcome :)

Can you work for freelance web site project? Because I am looking web site design with development project.

Hey,

Unfortunately I am totally swamped with work to the point where I can’t accept any freelance gigs – but if you need modifications done you could head on over to Envato Studio for customization gigs :)

How do you override styles? I am using child theme and sometimes styles come but it seems others are being pre-empted by javascript. For example, the height of the menu bar. There is too much top/bottom padding on the logo, so the distance from the main nav to the drop downs is too far. I would like to correct this but I cannot seem to do this via the style sheets. Great theme overall but it would help if one could do more with the child theme to customize.

Hey,

When you need to override values that javascript sets use !important on the rule. For example:

#header-outer {
  top-padding: 0!important;
}

Cheers

ah yes of course. I’d forgotten! thank you! and thanks for the quick reply.

You’re welcome :)

You my friend, have created a thing of beauty. I’m so excited to get this theme I don’t even know where to begin on my site. This is by far the greatest theme I have ever experienced! You’re a rock star for real! Thank you for this fine product…

Thanks so much jn9necreative!

What font is used on the roll over in the portfolio? http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-ascend/portfolio-fullwidth-style-2/

How do I find / change that font in the salient control panel within the wordpress admin area? Is it under “Typography”? For example, I see Body, Navigation, Navigation Dropdown, Necta Slider Heder, etc. Is it in that list?

Hey,

It’s called Lovelo and yes you can use that section of the options panel. Check out the h3 in regards.

Cheers

Thanks. I’ve tried changing the font and the font size for “Heading 3” (which I’m assuming is what you meant by “h3”), but I don’t see the fonts on top of the portfolio rollover changing.

http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-ascend/portfolio-fullwidth-style-2/

So, to be clear, “heading 3” controls the font styles of the rollover text in the portfolio?

Hey – yes that should be the one to effect it. If it’s not working for you could you kindly open a ticket in regards at themenectar.ticksy.com with your admin credentials so I can take a further look?

Cheers

Hi. Great theme! A few questions as I fine tune my site:

1. How can I change the “project-attribute” & “project-type” slugs for my site? For example, I want this URL: http://www.recapturist.com/project-attributes/motels/ to instead be: http://www.recapturist.com/category/motels/

2. How do I change the Page Title for my project category pages? I am getting an “Item not updated” message when I click submit after I go to Portfolio > Project Categories > Click Category Name and edit the SEO Title under Yoast WordPress SEO Settings. For example, I want to change the Page Title for this page to be something other than “Minnesota Archives”: http://www.recapturist.com/project-type/minnesota/

Thank you.

Hey recapturist,

1. You’d need to modify the functions.php file in regards at the taxonomy creations

2. Try modding this section in your taxonomy-project-type.php

<h1><?php $term = get_term_by( 'slug', get_query_var( 'term' ), get_query_var( 'taxonomy' ) ); 
if($term) {
    echo $term->name;
} else {
    wp_title("",true);
} ?></h1>

Cheers

Thank you for the quick response.

You’re welcome :)

Box layout- I set the box layout in salient admin however when I navigate to another page, it reverts back to full width slider page. I need the box layout consistent throughout entire site.

Thank you

Thanks, i’ll be with you as soon as I can

Cheers

Thank you

You’re welcome :)

My site is not functioning as it should, was working just fine with the Salient theme. Now, the home page is messed up but all the other pages seem to be working just fine. http://jayweight.com/

Although it could be something to do with my hosting service.

Hey,

I’m seeing the home page display normally – could you please clarify what isn’t working on your end?

Cheers
