Hey Phectar,
If you can take a look at my home page right above the section where it says "Some Friends That I've Worked With" you'll see a thin white line going across the top of the red full width line.
I can’t seem to remove the white line at all. I’ve tried to mess about with padding and such but can’t figure it out for the life of me.
Any thoughts sir?
http://csmurphy.comHey CSMurphy,
currently I can’t see the line you’re talking about – what browser are you seeing it on?
I’m using Safari.
Here’s what I’m seeing in Safari http://i.imgur.com/FOn1Wnd.jpg
Interesting I see a white 5 pixel in height, full width line going across. I guess if no one else sees it then it’s not an issue. I don’t see it in any other browser but Safari.
Sorry for wasting your time sir.
No worries – if you can replicate it on a second computer please let me know the version number of Safari being used 
Just thought we’d let you know there is a Salient Group on Facebook just for users, not the author, to share ideas.
Hey webcoursesbangkok, thanks for sharing! 
Hi, my client bought this beautiful theme and ask me to modify his content & I did that but my client is saying that he can’t see well organized layout in safari. I am not good fan of safari, can you please help me? My client can’t see this number http://prntscr.com/5v82q8 & address http://prntscr.com/5v837q. Website url is http://www.prestige-cycles.co.uk/. Hope you will help me.
Thanks
Hey ThemeFog,
I can’t see that appearing in other browsers as well – is that info still there?
Cheers
Yes 
I’m on a mac now checking in Chrome/Firefox and also can’t see it just as on a PC – what browser version/OS are you using and how did you add that info? Did you do so from the header.php file or through menu items in the admin panel
Hi,
my team and me are currently building the site for our client with The Ken, but we are considering switching to Salient or other theme, because The Ken developers are not able to provide us with the functionalities and support we need. (Technically, they could, but they are not delivering.)
Here are the mockups for the two most important pages on the site: Homepage and the Search page. You will find the most important features boxed with the colored background – blog feed (2 columns) and WooCommerce shop feed (1 column), plus infinite scroll or load more loading the next batch or page of posts / search results; also, both the home page and the search page should share the layout and styling regarding main content (blog and product feeds).
Homepage mockup: https://docs.google.com/drawings/d/1cfak-L4rWtFrDY8uZ2Yb9N9-lRBZ9VFpROJEOJ-HTTs/edit Search page mockup: https://docs.google.com/drawings/d/1okfKyLY0cUlvHp-aVF4DzwXt_h0vFdn3aVhQ4WA0138/editCan we do this with Salient?
If yes, what are the ways of communication with the support, should we need it, if we decide to switch to Salient? And how soon the support usually responds?
Thanks
Hey Atrim,
Unfortunately that wouldn’t all be possible without some custom development at this point
Cheers
Tried looking around the boards, but is there any way to give the Nectar Header text some transparency?
Thanks!
Hey!
Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
.swiper-slide .content h2 {
padding: 4px 0px;
display: inline;
position: relative;
left: 10px;
background: none repeat scroll 0 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5);
box-shadow: 10px 0 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5), -10px 0 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5);
-moz-box-shadow: 10px 0 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5), -10px 0 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5);
-webkit-box-shadow: 10px 0 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5), -10px 0 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5);
-o-box-shadow: 10px 0 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5), -10px 0 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5);
line-height: 45px;
}
I am finding this theme superb, and easy to solve many design challenges.
However, I would like to add some whitespace to the full-width masonry grid, so that it looks like: by-form.net. Minimum 5px, maximum 10px. Is this possible? What CSS would need to be changed to keep all the heights in-tact?
Thank-you.
Hey,
Adding a border like that would require some custom development as of now but it’s an item on the wishlist 
Cheers
OK. I can imagine the issues with responsiveness it would provide. I’m reasonably handy with handling CSS/HTML, is there a solution that could be provided or does this fall outside the support guidelines?
It would be a little difficult to make it perfectly even borders on all sides with the way it’s coded right now, simple css I could provide would most likely result in different borders around some projects unfortunately
OK, I would appreciate the simple CSS regardless, to see how it looks. Thank-you.
Sure – add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
body .portfolio-items .col.elastic-portfolio-item {
padding: 5px!important;
}
Hi, just installed salient but the site loads really slow and pagespeed insights says its because of alot of java-scripts.. How can I make the page load faster? Im gonna have to purchase another theme if I can´t make it faste.. :/
http://pagfy.se/Hey hoggohill,
You can combine the scripts when using the bwp minify plugin
Cheers
Hi!
I’m trying to hide the “Post Header Settings” meta box in the admin through the Screen Options tab with no success. I uncheck the “Post Header Settings” checkbox, then the metabox disappears, but when I create or edit another post the metabox is there again. This only happens with posts, not pages.
I’m using the 5.0 version of the theme.
Is this a bug?
Thanks in advance
In line 219 in the /salient/nectar/meta/post-meta.php file it says:
'id' => 'nectar-metabox-page-header',
Maybe it should be changed to:
'id' => 'nectar-metabox-post-header',
Am I wrong?
Hey laparada,
I’ve noted to look into this further for the next update 
Cheers
Hi
Is the Visual Composer front end installed in the Salient theme – I don’t seem to be able to find it – and if not – is it possible to install it?
Best regards Claudia
Hey Claudia,
By default the front end editor wouldn’t be possible without modding the theme a bit
Cheers
Hey,
Head to our site here. See how I added a black see-through background to the nectar slider text? Is there a way to get that to fade in with the text, so it doesn’t come in blank on a new slide?
Thanks, Ace
Hey,
Not without modding the nectar-slider.js file located in the js directory
Cheers
Whoopsie, another wee prob:
I had a SEO analysis made, and it turned out that multiple H1s on a site was really bad. So I tried and change the headline next to the ” to be H2 instead. However, I made the H2 same size as the H1, as I wanted it to be like “part” of same content.
But my CSS is overwritten. I have no custom CSS on that page, changing the H2. I have nothing in the general CSS box, and in your backpanel I changed it to 46px. But for some reason it is overruled and set to 18px. I have NOTHING anywhere telling the H2 to be only 18px Im totally lost here.
Hope you can guide me in the right direction:
http://www.erhverv.peterpackroff.dk/blog/Hey,
Try adding this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:
article.post .post-header h2 a {
font-size:14px!important;
}
Cheers
Hi. But you are refering to the posts? I am referring to a basic styling inside the quote-box on top
The quote at the top that says “… jeg er aquote-for-backgroundltså ingen havmåge, der bare skider folk i håret….” is displaying at the full size for me – is that what you’re referring to?
1. Unable to get Nectar Slider Location to appear in Slide Sorter after saving location. Any ideas on how to resolve issue? Thanks.
2. oh, am digging the new fade out… anyway to adjust fade duration? Thanks.
Hey,
1. Could you kindly open a ticket in regards http://themenectar.ticksy.com/
2. You can do so in the nectar-slider.js file located in the js folder. To end up in the right location search for “fade”
Cheers
Hi No1 Nectar in the world!
Can you tell me if you are going to release the option to select placement top/ bottom of a row/ column? Or is there an easy hack for this, using simple CSS?
I have some content that I wanted vertical aligned and aligned bottom in some columns, but have no idea how to. Ive searched for CSS, but didnt find a solution that worked 
Cheers Peter
Hey again,
It’s an item on the wishlist
Cheers
Hi Nectar! I need a nut-cracker!
What happens on my blog? I have added shaddow on my mansory blog-items. Cool – it worked! But pls have a look at the FIRST blog-post in the row. The shaddow is cut off on the bottom.
Why is that??
http://www.erhverv.peterpackroff.dk/blog/Hey Peter,
Are you talking about the column that says “… jeg er aquote-for-backgroundltså ingen havmåge,”
Cheers
Nope I am talking about the first post on the left.
I’m currently seeing a shadow on all posts – could you provide a screenshot so I can see what you are?
hello, the map of the contact page is blank, any idea?
Hey,
could you share a URL in regards?
Cheers
Hello, excuse me where can I change the text of the “Read More” button in the excerpt of the post???
Hey gurudeviaje,
That would need to be handled through a translation plugin such as https://wordpress.org/plugins/codestyling-localization/
Cheers
Hey ThemeNectar!
Still loving your theme, I noticed that AWESOME lightbox you’ve implemented into Salient. Is there anyway I could use that specific Lightbox for my Nextgen gallery?
Thanks!
Hey,
Unfortunately that would take some custom development at this point
Cheers
Hello there!
Quick question is it possible to place a text box over the google maps shortcode. If so what’d be the best approach?
I’m using the shortcode on default template. If that helps.
PS Great work! Salient is hands down the best theme I’ve had the pleasure of working with.
Hey 9volmusic,
As of now that would take a bit of custom development. You’d need to use css to position the map absolutely and then have the elements below to sit on top manually
Cheers
I have a client using Salient theme and getting these error message: One error is on live server, one on dev server. The page does not load at all. Just the error message.
Fatal error: Call to undefined function nectar_quick_minify() in /.../wp-content/themes/salient/css/colors.php on line 292
Fatal error: Call to undefined function nectar_quick_minify() in /../wp-content/themes/salient/css/custom.php on line 333
Might these belated to WordPress 4.1 update?
Thanks. All in all a great theme…. prior to this “issue” 
Hey!
Have you ensured that you have the clean latest version of the theme by deleting the current one you have and uploading a fresh copy?
Cheers
It looks like that was the issue. I contacted the original developer of the site yesterday about updating the theme—which was done this AM.That fixed it. Thanks for your prompt reply.
Hey – glad you sorted it out 
Hello,
First of all, i’m really enjoying your Theme
great job!
And i’ve got a question. My header/menu does not seem to go back to
the homepage when i’m viewing one of my portfolio projects.
Is there a way to fix this?
www.nielsdielen.com
Kind regards, Niels
Hey Niels!
I can’t seem to access your URL at the moment – can you confirm it’s correct?
Cheers
Hello,
I’m really sorry it was indeed the wrong url
www.nielsdielen.nl
i forgot i was dutch
I hope you can help
Kind regards
Hey again! Make sure to set the URL in your portfolio tab within the Salient options panel
That fixes the back buntton, thanks 
But i still have the problem that my main navigation menu does not link to the correct pages when i’m in a portfolio project.
For example im looking at a project, and click on ‘contact’ it does nothing. Do you know how to fix this? or how to hide this navigation menu when the visitor is looking at a portfolio project?
Hey,
Try using full URLs with the anchors in them such as
“http://nielsdielen.nl/#contact” instead of just ”#contact”
Cheers
Yes i also thought that would help, but then it tries to go to this URL:
“http://nielsdielen.nl/?portfolio=mysterie-van-serton#home”
Could you kindly open a ticket in regards with your login credentials so I can assist? http://themenectar.ticksy.com/
Yes, i made a ticket with my login info
Thanks, i’ll be with you as soon as I can
