Awesome theme 
Thanks ikonome!
Hey ThemeNectar, I don’t want to sound impatient, but I’ve not had a response for a whole week now on my support ticket #371935. Please could you check to make sure it’s not been forgotten/deleted and maybe give your support guys a prod to see if they can help me please? Thanks! Still love your Salient theme 
Hey imaginednation,
Sorry for the delay – I haven’t been able to hit the forum in full force in the past couple days because of the upcoming update
Cheers
Hello
been more than 4 days already and my support ticket 377107 has not been answered yet.
Hey siamrocket, sorry for the delay – I have not been able to hit the forum in full force in the past couple days because of the new update with I have been polishing up. Thanks for your patience, i’ll be with you as soon as I can
Hi how can it be that wordpress-pro-event-calendar doesn’t work in this theme. When I enable it, some of the theme elements doesn’t work. And the plugin does not neither.?
Hey giraf87,
I have not tested with that plugin – could you share a URL in regards?
Cheers
Sorry – I meant the URL for your site using the plugin so I can what issues are showing up in the console
I guess it is something with font awesome but not sure?
I’ve got the solution from the plugin – I’ve changed the core.php in the plugin to this
wp_enqueue_style( ‘font-awesome-original’, dpProEventCalendar_plugin_url( ‘css/font-awesome.css’ ),
Everthig is fine now.
Hey – glad you sorted it out, thanks for posting you solution as well
You’r welcome
Cheers
Dear Developer(s),
We bought Salient some time ago but waited to see the development go on. We are now ready to develop our new site from Salient.
I saw an update is scheduled for release very soon. is it worth the wait? I know you guys use a forked version of VC so that’s also why I’m asking.
I believe I read somewehere the forked VC will also be updated in the next release? In other words.. Do you suggest on waiting untill the update or is it just a minor maintenance release? Any tech details you can share are greatly appreciated!!
Hey,
The next update will be out very shortly so you might as well wait
Cheers
Hi, Awesome theme. Thanks. However, when the website is open in Firefox the font icons are not displayed as well as the left/right navigation on images. Chrome/Safari seems fine but i dont know how to change it. Any chance you could point me towards a solution please? Thanks.
Hey,
Could you please share your URL in regards?
Cheers
Theme Nectar. I am building two different versions of the same site for a client using Salient. However, one version has different options. ie the “Transparent Background” Header option is not there on one of them. Neither is the “Header Layout” section. Can you help me please. Both are WordPress 4.1.1 running Salient theme.
Hey,
Are you using the same version of the theme? You can check the theme version in your theme options panel > information tab
Cheers
I made some tabs and inside each tab there is a portfolio object (to display different types of projects in a different way then the standard portfolio filters), but only the first tab seems to display the portfolio items correctly. If I select another tab then the portfolio items are not displayed correctly (they are displayed as narrow horizontal lines). Is there any way to solve this?
Hey – try to add this
$(window).trigger('resize');
into this section:
$('body').on('click','.tabbed > ul li a',function(){
var $id = $(this).parents('li').index()+1;
if(!$(this).hasClass('active-tab') && !$(this).hasClass('loading')){
$(this).parents('ul').find('a').removeClass('active-tab');
$(this).addClass('active-tab');
$(this).parents('.tabbed').find('> div:not(.clear)').css({'visibility':'hidden','position':'absolute','opacity':'0','left':'-9999px','display':'none'});
$(this).parents('.tabbed').find('> div:nth-of-type('+$id+')').css({'visibility':'visible', 'position' : 'relative','left':'0','display':'block'}).stop().animate({'opacity':1});
if($(this).parents('.tabbed').find('> div:nth-of-type('+$id+') .iframe-embed').length > 0) responsiveVideoIframes();
}
return false;
});
in your init.js file located in the js folder. Add it in right before the “return false;”
For the full width masonry style four, what are the ideal dimensions when using either the “Wide” and “Wide & Tall” for displaying images?
Hey – You can find the minimum dimensions for those sizes in the user guide at the masonry sizing section
Found it, sweet thanks!
Cheers
How can I make the overall checkout page smaller? The user has to scroll down to see even the basic fields. Is there a way to make the fields smaller? When the checkout page loads, it really is a bit overwhelming due to the huge fields and long page whereas the user and site owner want it fast and done.
Hey – try adding this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:
body .container-wrap input[type="text"], body .container-wrap textarea, body .container-wrap input[type="email"], body .container-wrap input[type="password"], body .container-wrap input[type="tel"], body .container-wrap input[type="url"], .container-wrap input[type="search"], body .container-wrap input[type="date"] {
font-size: 12px !important;
padding: 8px !important;
}
Hi, thanks as always for the great support! I added the code and it didn’t do anything. I checked on safari, firefox, and chrome browsers. Anything else I can try?
Hey – did you ensure that you didn’t accidentally paste the pre tags in with the snippet?
Cheers
Correct. I didn’t paste those. I copied exactly as in your script. No
Okay, I think it worked. The form field size remains same but padding between fields looks to be smaller. Is that correct? Any way to make form boxes smaller?
Hey again – Are you just trying to make the margin between them smaller?
On the checkout page, I get a lot of complaints about people not seeing the CHECKBOX for “I’ve read and accept the terms & conditions” next to the submit button. Is there any way to make it stand out more like move it above the submit button or have it checked already? Any other recommendations would help, thanks!

could you kindly share your URL in regards?
Cheers
I am really frustrated!!
Why am I getting Fatal error: Class ‘WPBakeryShortCode_VC_Row’ not found in /home4/fonsi141/public_html/dynamicexplainers.com/wp-content/themes/salient/nectar/nectar-vc-addons/nectar-addons.php on line 431 ????
I uninstalled the theme and installed it again and I STILL get it. Go can I remove this so I can work on my website?
Thanks!
Hey alfonsorodz, make sure you don’t already have a different version of visual composer active in your plugins prior to activating the theme
Hello,
I used: #header-outer { background-color:rgba(255,255,255,0.0)!important; }
To make the header transparent. What would I need to include to remove the shadow that appears at the bottom of the header?
Also wondering if you could send me the shortcodes to edit header font color, hover color, and the color of the link to the current page before & after scrolling, as well as a short code to force the header to scroll up when the page is scrolled.
Thanks!
Also wondering if there’s a way to make the header opacity and color change on hover.
Hey,
1.
#header-outer {
box-shadow: none!important;
}
2/3. You can control those colors in your header options tab of the Salient options panel – just select “custom” for the color scheme. Also here’s the css you were looking for
#header-outer {
position: absolute!important;
}
#header-outer:hover {
background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0.8)!important;
}
Cheers
The reason I ask about custom css for the header font color is because some of my pages have dark slider images, and some have lighter images – making it hard to see if I choose just one color scheme that applies to them all.
Also, I’m using the option to force transparency since using custom css on the regular header leaves an empty area at the top. Since I’m doing this, my logo doesn’t appear until the page is scrolled. When it is, the font color also changes. Is there any custom css to control how the header behaves on scroll to prevent this?
I really appreciate all the help. Thanks again!
Hey,
As of now it would require a lot of css on specific pages to accomplish this – however this item is already on the wishlist to become a theme option so I’ve noted your +1 for the idea
Cheers
Hi, I just updated to the latest version and for some reason I get this error when editing a page from classic composer to visual composer:
“Your page layout was either created with a previous Visual Composer version or you have elements/text located outside of VC rows (which could have occured if you switched into the classic editor view to make changes). Visual Composer requires all content be contained within rows to render correctly – before converting your layout to the new version, make sure to read this page.”
When I click on CONVERT, it messes everything up. HELP PLEASE!

Hey,
If you’ve already checked that you don’t have any HTML or elements outside of VC rows in the text tab on your editor 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
Hey Nectar,
I haven’t heard anything from Tahir in regards to the rolex javascript coding. I’ll be happy to pay money for the service if that is whats necessary. Whatever I need to do. Seriously I really need help. If its too time consuming please let me know and I will not bother you about it anymore. I am also willing to pay money for the support.
Also on a mobile device my home page looks kind of screwy I am assuming this is because of the mouse based parallax, is there any way I could swap out a different or simpler home page whenever someone uses a mobile device?
Hey,
1. Sorry for the delay – he probably flagged the ticket for me but I haven’t had a chance to hit the forum as hard as normal since I’m putting the final touches on the new release. I’ll be with you as soon as I can
2. In the coming update this will be possible from VC options
Cheers
Thanks Nectar, I really appreciate you helping and I am super excited for this new release being able to change mobile version in the VC is going to be a gamechanger. Hope its soon.
No problem!
Hey TN I’ve been trying to disable the responsiveness to my website, however even tho I disable it in settings, it still continues being responsive on mobile. Is there a way to turn this off completely and reenabling when I’ve decided to go back to it? Thanks
http://flyrlbinternational.infoHey,
The option in the theme options panel should remove the responsive.css stylesheet all together – 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/
Cheers
Hi I have a question.
I am using full width portfolio… My portfolio displays 4 items in one row, and I know it shows 5 when the browser is larger. But I want the default setting to be 5 items in one row. How can I change that?
Hey themickyd,
As of now there’s only the option to constrain the columns to 4 for all desktop views but if you wanted to mod that you’d need to activate the option for it and then change the rules in the responsive.css stylesheet in regards. If you search for ”.constrain-max-cols” you’ll end up at the necessary rules
Hey ThemeNectar! Awesome theme. I completed my website, check it out : http://tinselfete.com
I have just one issue, rest i could find answers in here. My Pinterest Social icon in the Contact page shows invalid url while with Facebook, viewers are able to share! Thnx in advance
Hey – nice site, thanks for sharing! When I’m on the contact page I’m actually able to use the Pinterest button normally. What browser are you currently experiencing the issue on?
Is it possible to display future scheduled portfolio items? I want to use them like a calendar but can only display older items.
I can only find plugins to fix this that work with posts, not portfolio items.
Thanks!
Hey,
As of now this would indeed take the use of a plugin – When you tried using the ones you have did they not display options for the portfolio items at all or did the options display and simply not work?
Cheers
Thanks,
All the plugins I tried only work for posts & not custom post types like portfolio items.
I solved the issue by using “The Future is Now!” plugin and editing the line:
if ( $data['post_status'] == 'future' && $data['post_type'] == 'post' )
to:
if ( $data['post_status'] == 'future' && $data['post_type'] == 'portfolio' )
Everything works great now, thanks.
Hey – glad to hear
Hi there, I am very interested – got a question concerning the page builder though: you describe that you use a tailored version of the VC. Does that mean that any add-on of VC would work with your theme?
thanks my best regards p.-
got two others: 1) your new changelog: “Added in option to custom link image gallery pictures indivudally” – can you explain what this means? does it mean, that I can address an image f.e. in a single portfolio page with its own link? 2) In your portfolio main oage I see, that mostly the portfolio featured image is displayed, the date of post, and the portfolio item name. Question: Is it possible to replace the post date with a different content (f.e. text)? The main reason is, that I want to use the portfolio as a kind of item list. The post date would not be much of interest, but an additional information (as text) insetad, would. Please let me kow if this would possible and how… that would be perfect!
thanks in advance! P.-
Hey,
1. The VC version is being updated very shortly (within a day or two) which should provide compatibility with most vc addons
2. Yes, you can link any portfolio item or gallery image item to a custom URL rather than a single project page
3. Yes you can use a custom text snippet instead of the date
Cheers
this sounds awesome – you got me! thanks!
You’re welcome
