Hello!

Is it possible to create a toggle area, and then, drag some pre-existing rows into it?

I’d like to create an archive-type of setup where, once some of the two-column rows are of no use, I could drag them into the toggle area.

http://www.artblend.com/art-fairs/

Thanks!

Hey again!

You can’t actually drag the row itself, you’d need to drag the content elements from your other existing row into the toggle row one by one

Yes I see that. Thanks for pointing that out!

You’re welcome :)

Greetings – do you have a target delivery date for your next release?

Thanks, Doug

Hey Doug! It’ll most likely be out mid Feb :)

Nectar team,

Quick question, when I go to the Dashboard -> Salient -> Theme Information, it indicates that I have version: 0.1? Is that the latest and most update to date version? I purchased the theme about a week ago.

I ask because after reading over some of the forums comments I have come across users saying they are using version 4.0? Does this make sense to you?

If I am not using the most current version how can I update or upgrade my current version?

Thanks.

Hey!

You don’t lose any features – the child theme is only meant for customizing the code of the parent theme without having to directly edit it (update proof)

Cheers

Thanks for the quick reply.

You’re welcome :)

Hello ThemeNectar, I am trying to setup a image gallery inside one of my portfolios. The problem I’ve run into is, I can not make the image gallery ‘Full Width’.

I want to set up a portfolio page similar to this: http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-frostwave/portfolio-fullwidth-style-three/

But, I want to use an image gallery instead of the Portfolio component. I need the image gallery to be Full Width as well. Is this possible? If yes, can you kindly explain how.

Many thanks.

Hey evermaven,

There’s a layout option in your image gallery element which you can select fullwidth in – if that doesn’t work please share a URL so I can assist :)

Cheers

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately I can not share a URL for I am working off a local server. I can however share a DropBox screenshot file with you that showcases my setup and output. Hopefully viewing those you will be able to help me out. If not please let me know and I will active a URL for you to view.

Hey,

You have the style set to Meta below thumb w/ links on hover – change that to one of the others and they will sit flush side by side :)

Hello,

Your design is amazing. Thanks for the hard work.

We have a problem with gravity forms and have submitted a ticket today: Ticket: #355521

When we activate gravity forms our images disappear, they are fine when using the stock theme, could you help us at all please?

Thanks a lot

You’re welcome :)

Dear Sir,

Thank you for your support answer. I am not sure the reason I have been given is accurate. I have been told that the problem is “maybe” because I haven’t entered my registration key in Gravity forms. However, as already mentioned the form worked perfectly fine with a standard theme and gravity forms key is used for automatic updates, which we do not want until the site is actually working. If you need me to add it in, I can and have no issue in doing so, if its your advice.

I have also been told I need to purchase another copy of your theme for two landing pages, if this is the case I am happy to do this, but after at least one of the landing pages are working.

Please confirm if you could assist me with getting the site to work, anyone of them in the first instance, and I will be happy to purchase your theme again before you can help with the second site if required.

We do really like this theme and design, and are planning on purchasing it for our other projects, but only once the landing page/s are working.

I hope you can help.

Thanks a lot. Gersh

Hey again! I actually personally didn’t check that ticket yet – will do so now :)

Hi, please take a look at my sticky footer i made; http://logsexec.wpengine.com/advisory

I have a problem, my self made footer is a full width background column. Why is the width not the same as my other rows?. This only happens when i try to sticky my column into a footer.

Hey logisticsexecutive,

Try setting the row type to full width background and then removing the part of your custom css that sets the width to 100%

Cheers

doesnt seem to work T_T

Could you kindly open a ticket in regards so I can take a further look?

Cheers

Hi,

Why my portofolio categories doesn’t show? It’s only display All option in dropdown filter?

Please check here: http://www.ratakan.com/marketplace/

Before I updated the theme it’s works fine.

Thanks

Hey hanstantra,

could you kindly open a ticket in regards so I can take a look at the backend of your page? themenectar.ticksy.com

Cheers

I just sent a ticket. Thanks

Thank you!

Hi favourite theme-developer!

I can see that there are just about one million of your customers asking how to make a sidebar sticky…

Soon I will have like tonnes of posts on my post-page (my own custom design), and the sidebar with filters is really no use at all, if it cannot be made sticky.

Any plans on option to add this in the VC or just as CSS-class or such?

Any way I can get around this manually without messing up my entire site?

Cheers

Peter

Hey Peter,

right now it would take a plugin because unfortunately there’s no quick class to add that wouldn’t require new javascript development

Cheers

Hi there,

Attempting to increase the font size in the main nav in style.css.

Found what I need here:

header#top nav > ul > li > a { padding: 0px 10px 0px 10px; display: block; color: #676767; font-size: 20px; line-height: 20px; -webkit-transition: color 0.1s linear; -moz-transition: color 0.1s linear; -o-transition: color 0.1s linear; transition: color 0.1s linear;

Adjustments work in Chrome / Firebug, but take no effect whatsoever in the Theme. It’s possible this is a caching issue – however am I missing some overriding styling issues that’s preventing me from changing the font size in the nav????

Cheers!

Hey SpruceNZ,

You can handle this in the typography options tab of your Salient options panel – but if you wanted to use css it should look like this:

body header#top nav > ul > li > a {  font-size: 20px!important;  }

Cheers

Hi,

I really love you the Salient Nectar theme. A tip for improvement would be to implement a lazy load on the nectar slider. At the moment a couple of slides in high res makes the loading time quite slow. This would be a great feature.

Since the images are loading in the css a traditional lazy load plugin won’t work :(

Thanks for your great work! :)

/Daniel

Hey Daniel,

Thanks for the recommendation – the idea to use lazy load has been on the wishlist :)

Cheers

brand new installation of wordpress new installation of the lates ver. salient activated all recommended plugins uploaded dummy content modern creative as soon as i copy salient settings for modern creative – getting error 508 and logs me out of wordpress

Hey shah147,

What’s happening when you try and open a ticket? If you can’t do that please contact me with your admin credentials at themenectar@gmail.com

Hi,

I am looking at purchasing your theme to create a similar website – website is http://upfitness.co.uk/

Can I check if your theme can be used to create a similar website, taking into account of the ‘Real Results’ sections, sidebars, the tagline section above the navigation menu, Woocommerce integrations and the wrap section below the sliding images?

Thank you and I will hear from you soon.

Best Regards

Hey envato88,

Some of the features would be easily accomplished but others would take some custom development – you could basically get the same functionality out of it but one thing that wouldn’t be possible without a plugin is the type of content in the megamenu for the store on that example site

Cheers

Suddenly when I click on Nectar Shortcodes button inside pages, I don’t get any shortcode options. The usual drop down is just a small little section that doesn’t show anything.

Screenshot:

Hey,

Please ensure that no plugins are causing that conflict – if none are could you open a ticket in regards so I could take a closer look?

Cheers

Yes, I have deactivated plugins, tried turning salient visual composer on then off, tried different browsers, and they are all still having this problem. I’ll open a ticket.

Ok, i’ll be on the lookout for it :)

I can not get a nectar slider work on my custom post type page. I am afraid, I have to register the custom post type somewhere to make it work with the theme features, right? Where would that be?

Hey – you’d need to wrap the output of your custom post type data in a do_shortcode function such as http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16931885/wordpress-shortcode-in-custom-field-within-custom-post-type

That will not work. I am not doing this in a php file. I have a custom field, just like the default editor and in that editor I put content or a shortcode, like for the nectar slider. Your shortcodes do not work, others do, like for the revo slider or for the essential grid, which comes from the same author. They prepare their shortcodes to work with custom fields but yours do not work.

So is the shortcode just showing up without parsing like

[nectar_slider]
etc.?

hello

I would like to translate some words from English to Spanish. I used the Codestyling Localization plugin does not work the translation, is coming out in English.

What problem can I have?

Thank You.

Hey aintzerga,

Make sure you’ve renamed your default.po/.mo to the langauge code you’re using and that you’ve regenerated the .mo file in the plugin after adding strings.

Cheers

Hello ThemeNectar,

I was wondering if you could come back to the issue with anchor link highlighting on continuous page designs?

http://themeforest.net/item/salient-responsive-multipurpose-theme/4363266/comments?filter=all&site=themeforest.net&term=anchor&utf8=%E2%9C%93#comment_8644417

Thank you!

Sorry about that – will check now :)

Hello ThemeNectar,

is there any update about this issue? The latest 5.5 version not even has it fixed, but also introduces the bug in its first form. The anchor links are set as selected all the times.

I have the theme installed and I love it, it’s version 3.1, I don’t want to upgrade to the newest theme as I’ll lose all my settings ( I didn’t create a child theme) the only issue I have is that the nectar slider is not responsive on mobiles, can you please give me the code that will fix this?

Hey Eavan1,

There was a newer option aded in for increased responsiveness which would require modding several files – if you update to the latest version you won’t lose your theme options settings, only direct code changes you made to files. Have you done that?

Cheers

Thanks, but unfortunately I can’t find my details from when I purchased the theme so I can’t update it, any suggestions?

Hey again – you’d need to get in touch with Envato to recover the license file to gain access to it again, Unfortunately I fon’t have direct control over your account

I have a bug in promotion display circle. how can i fix this? http://s27.postimg.org/b9a9p39bn/Captura_de_ecr_2015_01_19_s_10_40_07.png

Hey -

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

html .woocommerce ul.products li.product .onsale, html .woocommerce-page ul.products li.product .onsale,  html .woocommerce span.onsale, html .woocommerce-page span.onsale {
   width: auto!important;
}

thanks!

You’re welcome :)

Hi,

My site goes completely blank and I get a 500 “internal server error” whenever I try to activate this theme. Any ideas on why it would be doing this?

something must have been messed up in my wordpress installation. I removed it and re-installed, and then was able to install your theme perfectly! :)

Hey – glad to hear :)

Hey TN I did an FTP to update to version 5.0 and now my site is completely blank. Do you have any ideas on what could have happened? I appreciate anything you can do. Please let me know your thoughts.

- Jeremy

Hey – please ensure that you did a clean update by deleting the old version prior to uploading the new. Also verify that no active plugins are causing it

Cheers!

No I did not. All I did was rename the folder to Salient 5.0 and drag the files from the latest version into the folder previously named Salient 4.0. Is there a way to reverse the damage done as I don’t have access to anything but my dashboard?

rename the folder back to what it was called prior – if that doesn’t work please share your URL so I can take a peek :)
