Hello ! Salient is really nice! I have 2 questions for you guys : In the Blog Menu can we add “related articles” at the bottom of the articles ? In the Home can we add a newsletter form to allow users to enter their email to stay in touch or to receive a newsletter ? Thanks a lot for your quick previous answer :)

Hey mrhobb,

1. Unfortunately there’s no element for this at the current time but I’ve noted the idea :)

2. You can use a plugin for this in regards

Cheers

I am trying t o make a slider with images and videos that slide, but it doesn’t work. The slider doesn’t slide to the next automatically and if I activate loop it stops loading at all. Also if I activate arrow navigation. Please fix?

I am talking about Nectar slider.

Hey Salton,

please share your URL in regards

Cheers

Hi guys and lades, can I use the latest Visual Composer with your theme?

If you use your own customized Visual Composer with the theme then I got a couple of questions: - Do you customize VC to match your theme? (This usually leads to the fact that I can only use VC that comes bundled with your theme, and cannot upgrade the VC as I normally do with any other plugin. Is this the case with your theme? - Can I use Visual Composer Add-ons with your theme (such as Ultimate Add-ons, or Takenawa Extensions)? Thanks a lot. Elijah.

Hey,

It is a customized version of VC and it also will be updated to the latest version in the upcoming release. Ultimate Add-ons should work as is but haven’t tested the Takenawa Extensions addon

Cheers!

Hey ThemeNectar,

I have a quick question:

I’m trying to change the hover text color inside the ajax search results when typing.

I tried to add this line to the custom css:

body #search-outer .ui-widget-content li a:hover {color:#0a0204!important;}

But its not really working. The color is still blue when i hover.

Thanks!

Hey again – could you kindly share your URL in regards so I can see why that is?

Hello ThemeNector,

It seems to be working now, dont know what i did wrong the first time.

Anyways, thanks a lot for your help. Great support!

You’re welcome :)

The back to all icon is now center aligned directly under the title. I what the icon to go back to being left justified as it is in the demo content. However, I can’t figure out how to do this. Do you have any suggestions?

Hey again – currently I can’t see that occurring here: http://www.thinkingmen.net/portfolio/branding-concept/ is there a direct URL to demonstrate the issue?

Hello yes please take a look at the recent project section on the home page. There is where you will notice the back to all icon is now centered align for some reason. Also I can not seem to change the background color when you hover your mouse over one of the recent project thumbnail images?

Hey, add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:


.carousel-wrap[data-full-width="true"] .carousel-heading a.portfolio-page-link {
    position: absolute;
}

Hi,

Firstly great theme – the video slider in particular is fantastic for marketing purposes.

A question about the slider – I currently have that little arrow that points downwards to indicate that there is content beneath the slider – if the user clicks this arrow he is taken directly below the slider to the content. Is it possible to have a button there instead that does the same job, i.e. is linked to content directly beneath the video slider in the same way as the arrow is? Or put differently, what do I link a button on the slider to so that if someone clicks on it they are taken directly beneath the slider rather than to a different page?

Many thanks

Hey maxbrown23!

Please see this in regards :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rj-NQ3YItlc

Hi Guys,

Love the theme! Quick question: Is it possible for an accordion to open on hover instead of click? I currently have an accordion that opens on click. Can you advise?

Hey Marketingnetwork, it would take a mod to the init.js file located in the js folder. You’d need to alter the event for the toggle section to be a hover one instead of click :)

Cheers

Which Zoom magnifying effect are you using in the new 5.0 ecommerce template. Is it built in into the theme or third party? Thanks

Hey superbrecs, thats a portfolio style available in the visual composer image gallery element.

Cheers

Hi, can you explain how to use. I looked up the source and your div class=”easy zoom” – so it is not a plug-in? I want to mouse over product images and magnify the product. Thanks

You’d need to initiate your images via the plugin inside of the init.js – if you do a search for ”.panr” you’ll see where the other ones get called :)

Is there a way in blog options to have fullscreen with meta overlaid?

Hey,

Are you referring to combining the two available blog headers in some way?

Cheers

Yes… I love the fullscreen option, but also like have the meta with sharing options laid out on top of the image.

Right now that would require modding the single.php file since the social icons are placed underneath in a different style by default

Cheers

Im loving this theme! Im a complete newbie, but it feels like I know what I’m doing and the results are quite impressive. I need help with one thing though.

—> the Portfolio shortcode: the effects with the mouseover are great! However, I want to use the portfolio shortcodes only to present my services in an interactive way, without a bigger picture showing when I click on them. Instead, I would rather have them link to my services page. How can I make it so?

Hey!

You can add a custom URL for the link in your project configuration box in the External URL field :)

Cheers

Hi there -

Salient is so fantastic! I am having fun and it’s my first time to do wordpress.

I just wanted to ask – if I import the XML files of the dummy data, will my pages or menu bar get affected? I was hoping to copy some elements like the about us, etc.

Hey insideinvestor!

It will import a new menu location which will contain all the links – it shouldn’t add them into an existing menu location you have. :)

Cheers

Hello. could you post the theme styling for tables? I made a table but it has no default theme styling on it for some reason.

Thanks a bunch! Best support and theme on themforest hands down!

You’re very welcome :)

When will multiple masonry sortable portfolio shortcodes be able to exist on the same page? I really really need this. The site in question is chrissibley.com I love the theme except for this issue. It seems like it would be very easy to switch the jQuery references to classes rather than using the id attribute. I would consider the possibility that the theme can create multiple items on the same page with the same id a bug.

Hey raysarno, it’ll be available in the upcoming release :)

Cheers

Awesome, thank you! Any idea when that will be?

In 1-2 weeks most likely :)

Hi,

How can I change text value for portoflio category ‘All’ – predefined category for dispalaying all portfolio items ? I thought that I found it in functions.php file , changed text values, but nothing realy happend. Probably, I’ve changed a wrong value or file ?

Hey cobrinjo,

Try also making the change in your shortcode-processing.php file located in the nectar/tinymce directory :)

Cheers

Thanks a lot ! I’ve totally neglected this file :)

You’re welcome :)

Hello..

I need to create a secondary navigation under my main header that sticks in there while i scroll down the page.

i does not have to be a menu per say with a dropdown elements..

to do this i created a row of content in home page, and design it as if it was a menu.. please see picture http://postimg.org/image/aljnq8utp/

the problem is that this row of content does no stick in the top while scrolling down. i need it to stay visible under the main header.

i saw here in comments this css code: }

.sticky-content {
 position: fixed;
 top: 120px;
 width: 100%;
 left: 0;

of course i named the row class with the name sticky-content.

but is not working ok.. the content sticks in the top but as i scroll down, all the content of the website pass on top of the sticky menu and overlap so i can not see the content in the sticky row.

can you please tell me how to fix this?

then when this work ok, i will just copy that row on the rest of the pages of my website. i know this is probably not the best way to do this.. if you can recommend a better or easy way of doing what i need i will really appreciate it.

thanks in advance for your support and awesome theme.

Hey joseanyelo,

Try changing your snippet to:

.sticky-content {
 position: fixed;
 top: 120px;
 width: 100%;
 left: 0;
 z-index: 10000;
}
Cheers

it works perfect… thanks alot :D

You’re welcome :)

Hello there!

I think it would be awesome if you made a whole bunch of demos, kinda like the Bridge theme.

Thanks!

Hey, thanks for the suggestion :)

ThemeNectar, I was able to change my site background from the default grey to white using the following CSS code:

body .vc_text_separator div, body .container-wrap, body .home-wrap, body #page-header-wrap { background-color: #fff!important; }

However, I am left with the default grey under the thumbnails in both my portfolios and image gallery. How do I remove the grey or change it to white?

See the following DropBox link for examples. I’ve circled where the problem is. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, EM

Hey EM,

Could you kindly share your URL in regards so I can assist with the rest of the css needed?

Cheers

Here’s the URL (http://neileverosborne.com/portfolios/). As you can see underneath each image there is a small little grey bar which I can not seem to remove. Any thoughts on how to remove it or even change it to white?

Thanks, EM

Add this into your css box :)

body .portfolio-items .col {
  background-color: #fff!important;
}

Hello, I am attempting to create a Team page using the Portfolio.

There are two major factors in this page, the ability to sort through the team’s occupation (why I chose portfolio) as well as the option to click the image and bring up a lightbox with text content.

Currently, the theme only allows the featured image to be opened in lightbox for the portfolio, however I’ll need the portfolio items text content to be displayed. Is there an easy way to have the portfolio lightbox open the portfolio items content in lightbox rather than the featured image?

Thanks,

Hayden

Hey Hayden,

Unfortunately not as that would take some custom development at this time – but i’ve noted your +1 for the idea on the wishlist :)

Cheers

Hello, is it possible to sort the portfolio filter categories not in alphabetical order, but in a custom order? Now it is ordered in alpha order, but i would like to have in a different, custom order. How can i do this? Thank you. Best regards.

Hey, you’d need to do a little modding to the functions.php file at the wp_list_categories function :)

any chance of a true full screen row like the nectar slider? % padding sorta works but isn’t perfect across displays

would love to be able to design full screen layouts using columns.

other option would be to allow for custom layouts inside of the nectar slider.

cheers!

Hey! That item is on the wishlist, for now it would indeed take some custom development though

Cheers
