To make the header transparent permanently you say look for $(’#header-outer’).removeClass(‘transparent’); in init.js and remove – there are several instances of it, which do I remove?

Hey dessington,

The one inside the smallNav() function

Cheers

When adding a slider in fullscreen mode I still get a grey gap below the slider of about 30px even though all footers are disabled. How can I disable this?

Hey dessington,

could you kindly share your URL in regards?

Cheers

Site is not live yet, but here is a screenshot: http://awesomescreenshot.com/02246hio85

Hey again – whenever you get to a staging server or a live server can you please allow me to see so I can see what’s causing it?

Hey, I used this code to shrink the size of the featured image, but I was wondering if I would be able to center it as well?

I tried adding margin: auto in that code but it wasn’t working

Thanks!

article.post .content-inner .post-featured-img img { width: 50%!important; }

Hey thomasmkl,

could you share your URL in regards?

Cheers

Hey – for some reason that URL is going to a 404. Could you kindly verify it’s correct?

Cheers

Hi,

After updating to the newest Salient version, I’ve noticed that row background images set to parallax on desktop seem to not resize appropriately via mobile. See image below. I realize parallax doesn’t work on mobile, but it seems these images should be scaled much more than this image preview.

The weird thing is if I am on desktop and shrink the browser window to smartphone width, the bg image scales appropriately. See second image.

Thoughts to correct?

Hey tonypantello!

What mobile device and browser are you using so I can see if I can replicate? Also do you see this occurring on the demo?

Cheers

Hi, this is on a iphone 5c using safari or chrome. And no, this does not occur on the demo. I think that there has to be something wrong with our responsive CSS file. Our developer customized it and after updating the theme, we always replace it with his. I can send you it if that would help.

Hey again, please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials http://themenectar.ticksy.com/ :)

Hi! Thanks for a fantastic theme!

I just wonder where I can delete the home slider buttons, I dont want to have them. Thank you!

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

.slider-nav {
  display: none!important;
}

Is your theme compliant with PHP 5.5?

Hey OcalaWebsiteDesigns, yes – there should be no issues.

Cheers

Hi Nectar,

I have experienced an issue with displaying tabs correctly. An Image Gallery (3 Columns) won’t be displayed in a correct way. Also if I am using WP-Google-Maps Pro inside a tab (but the same with your VC Map implementation!). Take a look: http://homepage.bls-bayern.de/immobilien/eigentumswohnungen-in-muenchen-solln/

It does not depend on a specific Browser (iPad very often, Android nearly always and so on). If I switch from tall to landscape (Smartphone / iPAD) or i refresh the site the issue is going away. Here are two images to show the issue: http://homepage.bls-bayern.de/wp-content/uploads/tab-issue-01a.jpg

Please any advice to solve this – Thanks

BTW I wish you a Happy New Year and all the best!

Hey ImediaMP,

Try to add this:

$(window).trigger(‘resize’);

into this section of the init.js file located in the js folder right before the return false;

$('body').on('click','.tabbed > ul li a',function(){ 

Cheers

Hi Nectar,

yes it seems that your instruction solve the problem. Great!!!!

You’re very welcome :)

Hi, i just purchased Salient. I previously had Jupiter installed as my active theme, before I installed the Salient theme through the Envato toolkit. It installed successfully, but when i chose to activate it.. my wordpress site broke and only will give me this message…

Fatal error: Class ‘WPBakeryShortCode_VC_Row’ not found in /home/content/p3pnexwpnas05_data02/56/2373756/html/wp-content/themes/salient/nectar/nectar-vc-addons/nectar-addons.php on line 431

I have deleted your theme via FTP and tried again, through the wordpress theme installer and still the same thing happens. What do I do?

Hey,

Make sure you don’t have any plugins remaining from your old theme or ones that might conflict (deactivate any you suspect might interfere before uploading Salient again)

Cheers

Hi, I updated to Salient 5.0 and the Update To Cart button is full width of page. I do have a child theme but I am not sure how to update the theme if I have child theme setup. Please help as I don’t know how to handle this or fix the Update Cart button. Thanks!

Hey ehong33234,

You would still update the theme normally it’s just that you might have conflicting files in your child theme setup – Since 5.0 includes a lot more woocommerce files in the woocommerce directory – ensure you don’t have any that would be interfering in your child theme

Cheers

Is it possible to hide the footer specifically from the home page?

Hey,

Add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:

.home #footer-outer {
   display: none!important;
 }

Hello,

1.The excerpt on the homepage for the posts shows “continue reading”, how to remove that.

2. How to remove the “Read More” button from all post types except the standard and gallery posts.

3.Is there any way possible to remove the “Audio” format as I don’t want users using that.

4.Is it possible to remove certain elements of the “Post Header Settings” i.e remove the “Page Header Background Colour” don’t want users using these settings.

5. In “Ascend” mode when sidebar is enabled for blog posts the “Share, Category and Comment” buttons moves to the left. How to fix this as I want the sidebar enabled for advertising.

http://www.pointsquad.com/

Thank You.

Hey ahsanuk,

1. Add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:

.excerpt a {
   display: none!important;
}

2.

.continue-reading {
   display: none!important;
}

3. Edit this line in the functions.php file:

add_theme_support( 'post-formats', array('quote','video','audio','gallery','link') ); 

4. You would need to edit the nectar/meta/post-meta.php file

5. Could you kindly share a url in regards so I can see what you mean?

Cheers

How do I fix the text layout so it spans the entire row? energizeyourvoice.net

as you can see on the services and faq page the content is too narrow for the element/row.

Hey,

I’m seeing that you have line breaks all throughout the text – please switch into the text tab on your editor and remove those or any excess spaces between the sentences

Cheers

Love this theme. And I love the slide-out widget – and would love to use it.

Works fine on my iPad, but on my Android phone, when the slide-out widget is being used, all pages load with it in the active state, and it won’t go away (X is unresponsive). I noticed it first on my own site, but then found that it does this on your Ascend demo as well.

Hey,

What version of Android are you using?

Cheers

2.3.4

Hey, ThemeNectar! First of all, thank you for your amazing job which in my opinion is worth more than $58. Salient theme is the first WP theme I’ve ever bought on the Internet, and I certainly didn’t expect to buy a masterpiece! So far Salient satisfies every my need in designing my own website and also it offers really impressive variety of options and settings. Keep up with great work!

Still, there’s one question which brings me here. I want my website completely in russian language. Searching comments section on themeforest.net showed me some of your posts where you have recommended Codestyling Localization plug-in for manual translation.

Well, I’ve translated a decent amount of data using that plug-in but nothing has changed on my website. ‘Read more’ blog buttons are still ‘Read more’ and not the language I translated them into. Also, the plug-in shows me this:

http://screenshotuploader.com/i/1501/ka-xn.png

Can it be the reason why everything is still in english? The support file on this problem says me to contact theme author.

I’m really looking forward to your help! Best regards, PapaJohns.

Hey,

could you kindly open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials themenectar.ticksy.com ? After ensure that you’ve renamed your .po/.mo file in your salient/lang folder to match the language you’ve defined in your wp-config.php file

Cheers

No need to open the ticket. I had no idea I needed to rename something… Now I’m done with renaming, and everything is in a language I want!

Unfortunately, there’s no documentation about the necessety of renaming .mo/.po files. Or is it just me who couldn’t find it?

Anyway, thank you very much, 10/10 supported!

Hey again, glad you found it! I didn’t include it in the user guide because it’s a general practice with translating rather than a theme specific thing

Hi,

We are trying to give style to portfolio items. Using Title overlaid and zoom effecet, css class .work-item.style-3 . I manage to put titles down and change fonts with this.

.portfolio-items .col h3 { font-size: 35px !important; } .portfolio-items .work-item.style-3 .vert-center { bottom: 20px; margin: 0px !important; padding-top: 15px !important; position: absolute; text-align: center !important; top: auto !important; width: 100%; }, also link with this .portfolio-items .work-item.style-3 .vert-center { opacity: 0!important; } body .container #portfolio.portfolio-items .col:hover .vert-center { opacity: 1!important; }, unfortunatelly just can get that when you hoover background become slightly dark. Any tips.

Thanks

p.s. I leave zoom efect and remove background from grid galleries with this body .work-info-bg { display: none!important; }

Hey – checking out that URL I can currently see a dark overlay, have you already sorted this?

Hi, yes :)

Good to hear :)

Hey and thanks for a very great Theme.

we are now currently building the page and in the portfolio we are adding more than 300 projects, categorized into 12 theme (video, pictures, etc)

So I have two questions:

1. Due to a lot of project I want to hide the “ALL” button on the portfolio page. I only want people to use the other categories button.

2. If it is not possible to hide the “ALL” button, is it possible that when someone presses the ALL button that meybe only 20 out of 300 would load up. But then the user could scroll down the page and as he scroll, new projects will render in. So in other words, scrolling for some time would eventually have 300 projects listed on the page.

Hey!

Use this:

#portfolio-filters-inline #current-category {
  width: auto!important;
}
#portfolio-filters li, #portfolio-filters-inline li {
  float: left!important;
}

Cheers

Hey man.. This code is not working.. The titles are still on the center and not on the left. Here on the link you can see how it looks after i put your code in: http://testing.tjarnargatan.is/?page_id=399

Could you please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can take a look at what’s going on :) themenectar.ticksy.com/

Love the theme, been using it for a while now. Quick question:

Im using the Cube Portfolio plugin located here: http://dealersocket14.wpengine.com/resources/

But for some reason when clicking a portfolio item, a full page overlay pops up, but the overlay does not cover the navigation. It is supposed to. Is this just a Z-index issue?

Thanks!!

Hey!

I’m currently seeing that it is – It most likely was a z-index issue, have you already sorted it?

Cheers

Thanks for responding so quickly. Yes it was a Z-index issue. All fixed! Again, fantastic theme, love your work, keep it up. There are many sub-par themes out there with bad support and you continue to blow us away. Keep on rockin!

Great to hear! :)

Hello !

I have a few pre-purchase questions:

- Is it possible align the nav bar in the center, with social media icons on the same line?

- Is there an option for users to filter blog posts, like in portfolios?

- Is there a possibility to add social media icons that aren’t included with the theme?

- Can I use a custom favicon?

Thank you!

Hey manigaze,

1. Having the social media links in the same line would require manually adding them into the header.php as by default they are above the nav

2. No yet – only the portfolio uses the on the fly sorting

3. It would require manually adding them to the files as well

4. Yes that’s handled in the options panel

Cheers!

Hey everyone -

I noticed that if you select “Centered Menu Alt” for your header, when you view the site on mobile, the mobile menu button is non-functioning. It appears, but tapping it simply reloads the page. I’ve tried different combinations to keep this from happening (www.doggettstudios.com), but for now I’ve gone back to the standard header+additional nav menu so that I can have a menu structure visible on mobile.

Any thoughts on how to fix this?

Thanks!

Eric

Hey Eric,

I can’t seem to replicate this on my end – is there anyway you could please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can take a look at what’s going on :) themenectar.ticksy.com/

Cheers

I was fiddling with the header.php file, through the back end Editor, and somehow broke the entire site.

Despite reverting all PHP files back to the originals, the site still doesn’t load. Any way to see what went wrong and revert, without losing all my content?

site is at http://kansascityactorstheatre.org

DISREGARD. Reinstalled theme, it’s all fine again now.

Hey – that’s good to hear :)

Cheers
