Hi in portfolio – I have a long list. I want it as a drop down so that is what I’ve selected. The problem is that the list is to long. – Is it possible to change the display for the dropdown menu – take a look http://is2015021811hbaw.wp.olo.dk/?page_id=9

Thanks

Thanks for great support :)

2. the plugin is outdated :/

Thanks for great support :)

Sorry spam :) – seems like the plugin codestyling localization doesn’t work with child themes?

Hey.

Quick question. Am I able to add Login/Register links on the secondary menu for Woocommerce? And if the user is logged in it shows their name?

I came across this but if you can let me know where I can add it in your files: http://docs.woothemes.com/document/display-my-account-link-in-a-template-file/

Thanks

Hey tabishiqbal,

Yes it’s possible with that code – it would need to be added into the header.php file

Cheers

For anyone else who wants this and wants it showing up in the secondary menu all the way to the right put the code here:

<?php if(has_nav_menu('secondary_nav')) { ?> <?php } ?>

Hey – thanks for posting that for others :)

Hello ThemeNectar! I just wanted to say, that your theme is a delight to work with! I have been using Avada since 2013, and i’m so glad that I switched to the Salient theme, thank you for making such a great product!

Thanks so much alvseike!

Cheers :)

Hi salient! I’ve updated the new version of your theme. Can I overwrite my old style.css file?

Thanks

Hey – if you made direct edits to your parent theme style.css you couldn’t do this. However if you have a child theme you should be fine :)

Hi there. I’ve purchased Salient and was wondering when push and pull columns depending on screen size will be implemented into the page builder?

Many thanks.

Hey adayin,

It’s out now in 5.5 :)

Cheers

Hi thanks for the update. The latest version doesn’t seem to support the full-width content layouts I had previously spent time getting right. All pages using full-width blocks are now set within the container. I’ve checked the block settings and all say “full-width content”

The update has also stripped out any style changes I made in the child theme. Do I need to update the child theme in any way?

Many thanks, Danny

Hey – if you update to 5.5.1 it should sort the child theme issue :)

Hello again,

For the Blog posts, I would like the post-header to appear above the image.

I can make these edits but don’t want to edit core files.

How do I go about this change?

Many thanks

Hey libertad,

You could use a child theme in regards but there’s not other easy way to go about this

Cheers

Hello. I have a question regarding the Nectar Slider, in full screen mode. When adding a slide, you have the option to use Left/Centered/Right and Top/Middle/Bottom. I find that when the ‘bottom’ option is selected, this is never quite low enough for me (often the slides I use are photographs where the subject is covered up by the text). Is there a way to have the ‘lower’ setting with a greater margin from the top?

Thanks, Andrew

Hey Andrew,

If you can share your URL in regards I could assist with the css :)

Cheers

Sorry, but I can’t find a way to change “Watch Video” and “More Details” texts to something else in my portfolio layout. Where should I do that?

And also, when I open my website on a mobile phone, my main menu button is obscured with the admin menu. What might be the problem? http://epicshot.ru/wp-admin login: epic pass: epic

Thank you!

Hey Orthank,

1. You can use the .po file – check out this plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/codestyling-localization/

2. Try adding this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:

@media only screen and (max-width: 1000px) {

#wpadminbar {
  position: fixed!important;
}
}

Hello again!

I had a question regarding multiple map instances inside of tabs:

I found some posts from months ago where you addressed this with adding a line to the inti.js file. That part works. The problem I’m having still, is that only the map in the first tab is centered on the marker. For the rest, the marker is up and left, in the same direction that the map was displaying before the mod to the init.js file. Is there a simple fix or another line to be added to the js file to correct this?

Thanks very much!

Hello,

Just wondering if you had a chance to take a look at this?

Thanks!

Hey – the line you added into the init.js file is causing the issue, IE apparently doesn’t support:

window.dispatchEvent(new Event('resize'));

try changing that to this:

if (document.createEvent) { // W3C
    var ev = document.createEvent('Event');
    ev.initEvent('resize', true, true);
    window.dispatchEvent(ev);
}
else { // IE
    element=document.documentElement;
    var event=document.createEventObject();
    element.fireEvent("onresize",event);
}

Did you

Okay, by all accounts, that seems to have rectified the problem! Thank you SO much!!!

Now, the only other issue I am having with the tabs, is that with the maps, all of the tabs past the first one load with the map off-center… The marker is off to the top-left, out of frame. Is this common, have you seen this happen before?

Thanks again!

Hey Salient,

I’ve been been trying to screw around with CSS and applying div classes to the nectar slider heading (doesn’t stick on update) so that it has the “caption” (semi-transparent) background.

Is there an easy way to apply the same caption background as the slide subtitle to the heading?

I’d really appreciate help here.

Thank you!

Aaron

Also, on mobile, the slider text shrinks so much it’s nearly illegible. Anyway to fix this?

Hey,

1. Add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:

<pre> 
.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;
}
</pre>

2. The text sizes scales down proportional to the rest of the slider to ensure no clipping on the image. If you want to change it you just need to alter the few lines of css for elements in that viewport. Look for these rules in the mobile viewport in the responsive.css stylesheet located in the css folder.
 body .swiper-slide .content h2 
 body .swiper-slide .content p    
 body .swiper-slide .button a

Hello! I’m editing a client’s site that is using your theme (live theme BTW!). I have a couple questions on the version of VC you’re theme uses. It looks like it’s using version 3.7.3 which is pretty outdated. I did notice you’ve made some modifications to it as well. The issue is that my client wants some of the functionality of the VC add-ons like Templatera, etc, but they aren’t compatible with the older version of VC.

I can purchase a new version of VC but I’m wondering if that will override the components you’ve built in and customized? Also, the way the plug-in was bundled with the theme is a little different. It’s there and working but doesn’t show up on the Plug-ins page from the WP admin panel. I could FTO in and overwrite it with a new version but wanted to check with you first.

Thanks in advance for your help! It’s a great theme!

Hello Again, I’m hoping to get a response about the VC version issue. My client really wants to continue using your theme but we’re stuck until that plug-in can be updated. Please advise. Thanks!

Hey,

The latest version includes an updated VC which will work with templatera :)

Cheers

I bought this theme and it is unbelievably amazing. I just have two small questions:

1) How do you add links w/ box on the parallax homepage like the one on the demo?

2) The older version of Salient had an option to put extra content on a portfolio page but in aslider form. Is the content slider feature for a portfolio still available in Salient 5.0 ?

Hey Jmondesir,

1. Are you referring to the buttons within the Nectar Slider?

2. That option was removed since it is now obsolete – the image gallery element in the page builder offers the same display as that plus a ton of other options and the flexibility to move it where you need in the page rather than being forced to keep it at the top.

Hello,

Just updated to the latest version to go with the latest woocommerce. It seems to have changed the spacing on the main product pages. One of the products has a second line of text and instead of the next line of products moving down and being all in line, it does not clear the row and starts after the product with the longer title. The responsive smaller screens seems fine, just the main desktop size. I am sure it is just a css fix, but could not figure it out…

Thanks!

Tim

the shop page shows it well too

I mean the home page with the featured products. Thanks! :)

Hey – i’m not seeing that you’re on 5.5.2, could you kindly update to this?

Hi Sir!

Sorry, where can i change the: “Slide Content Alignment > Bottom” the css height for the slider…. Unfortunately for below still too high for me….

see….

THANKS FOR HELP :)

Hey tjg!

Could you share your URL in regards so I can assist with the css?

Cheers

Me again. Was referring to solution to Ticket: #232915 for the above question

Hey – thanks for the additional info in regards

Have you offered a solution to “limit or select” which single portfolio items show when clicking the previous/next buttons in the portfolio pages? As of now every portfolio item shows up everywhere and I’m trying to limit the results to specific portfolio’s that have a defined category ( i.e I don’t want to see items from portfolio B when browsing in the portfolio A page) I looked around but only found a reference you made on 6/19/14 to an Ajax mod and something for the wish list. Thanks

So I finally updated to 5.5.2 and see the new Single Project Nav Arrows Limited To Same Category. I have checked the box but it is not limiting the projects to the specific category. It is still showing every project regardless of category. Am I missing something?

So I checked the box for Single Project Nav Arrows Limited To Same Category in the Portfolio Tab, but it is not limiting my projects to a specific category. It is still showing all of the projects. What am I missing or doing wrong?

Hey, could you please share your url in regards so I can take a look?

sorry if this is a repeat, but I could not figure out how to do this from the questions other people asked:

I have a page with ‘Products’ in the menubar and a ‘Products’ section on the page. How do I have the browser slow-scroll to the ‘Products’ section of the page when I click on ‘Products’ in the menubar?

Hey brothman01,

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

Cheers

Thank you so much for creating this beautiful theme, it works for everything.

I’m having an issue with the home slider height. I set the height to 800 in the admin panel, however when I navigate back to the home page from other pages it will have the slider set at 650px instead. This happens randomly and is hard to reproduce. It is appending style=”height:650px !important” to the #featured div in the home-template-4 file. How can I fix this?

Thank you!

Hey -

Have you considered using the Nectar Slider instead? It overs much more control over the sizing and has more accurate sizing for mobile :)

Cheers

Looking to buy this theme. Can you please confirm that I will be able to create a blog like this: http://www.sequoiacap.com/grove

Your reply is much appreciated!

Hi Phil. Will the new update support the Ultimate Addons for Visual Composer plugin? If so, do you see any performance issues with using this within Salient. Also, it would be nice to have light and dark menu and logo options for the page header and slider. Thanks!

Hey – since the new updated will bring a current release of VC the old compatibility issues should go away :)
