Hey Themenectar,

Love the theme, but for the world of me I can not make the Google Maps work at all. See sample page. http://www.ventnortourism.org/ventnor-city-outdoors/

Please let me know. Thanks!

Nevermind, had another plugin jamming it up.

Hey – glad you sorted it :)

Hi.

Do you plan on adding breadcrumbs?

Thanks.

Hey Joanna123,

Right now it would still require a plugin but it’s been an item on the wishlist :)

Cheers

Thanks for the update guys,

After doing it though we get the following message;

Your theme has bundled outdated copies of Woo Commerce template files. If you notice an issue on your site, this could be the reason. Please contact your theme developer for further assistance.

Are you planning another update to address this too?

Hey Raccoon_Nasty,

Yes – the update to clear that will be out soon

Cheers

Looking forward to speedy update, as it is our customers with IE can’t checkout due to the inability to select the state in alternate shipping address.

salient/woocommerce/cart/cart-shipping.php, salient/woocommerce/cart/cart-totals.php version 2.3.0 is out of date. The core version is 2.3.6

Thanks for your efforts!

Hey – the update will be out later today, could you kindly share your URL in regards though?

Hi there, I have a few issues/questions for you:

1. Please could you tell me why when you click on one of my portfolio items the “back to all” (4 squares) doesn’t link back to the main portfolio page. How do you alter this? Each item basically links to the page you are on (http://soundfair.com/portfolio/electricity)

2. Is it possible to have the Header logo change as you scroll down the page to specific anchor points?

3. Is it possible to have the hover colour different for different items on the Navigation menu?

4. Is it possible to have 3 columns of portfolio items fill the fill width with no padding in between? so they all butt up to each other?

Sorry for all the questions but I’m really struggling finding any literature on these issues.

Amazing theme guys, Thanks

Hey wardanddodds,

1. Have you set your portfolio URL in the Salient options panel > portfolio tab?

2. Unfortunately not yet without some custom development

3. With custom css yes – add this into the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:

header#top nav > ul > li:nth-child(2) > a {
  color: #999!important;
}

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

@media only screen and (min-width: 1000px) {
.portfolio-items .col.span_4 {
  width: 33.3%!important;
  margin: 0!important;
}
}

Cheers

Brilliant, thanks guys. Worked really well. Although on Point 3. I wanted the hover state (color) to change but as it is, the menu items have changed color in their original state, anyway, that will do. Thanks again. Great support. Quickly. I downloaded the plugin “Parallax-Background-for-VC” but it doesn’t seem to work as it looks like you guys have customized the VC panels. Correct? I need to get a fixed video background with empty sections in the site so when you scroll down the page the video can be seen through the gaps in the background. In your opinion, what is the best way to get this to work? nI really appreciate your time Mr Nectar

I’m having some issues with the Nectar slider. After searching the comments here I know the slider uses the “Cover” option by default. I’m wondering if there is a way to disable this so the image isn’t stretched? I’ve got some banners I want to display that already have text and some static images and they look very poor quality.

Hey ameledeo,

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

.swiper-slide {
  background-size: contain!important;
}

Cheers

Hi! Is there a way to disable the UGS and the keywords in the product page? http://www.olivier-magermans.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/Capture-d’écran-2015-03-14-à-18.51.15.png

I juste want to keep the categorie link. Thanks! :)

Hey,

Could you kindly share the product page URL in regards?

Cheers

I can’t cause I have to be in maintenance mode… You can not answer without seeing the page?

If you’d want you could also open a ticket in regards to allow me through the maintenance plugin :) themenectar.ticksy.com/ticket/

Hi Guys

Love the update :) i have just updated woo commerce and have received this message

Your theme has bundled outdated copies of Woo Commerce template files. If you notice an issue on your site, this could be the reason. Please contact your theme developer for further assistance.

Please advise how i can correct.

Thanks

Hey DNDS! This will be sorted in the upcoming update :)

Thanks, could you let me know when that will be? have a client who will want to know when it will be fixed.

the update should be out today :)

Hi,, Im interested in your theme, it looks great,,, however I’m wondering if it is possible for the blog to have the filters at the top the same way as the portfolio? Thanks

Hey JewelSki,

As of now that would take some custom development unfortunately

Cheers

I just wanted to say that I’m building my third website with Salient and I just LOVE IT! The best template for Wordpress ever. I have a bunch of incredibly happy clients – it’s just awesome, thank you thank you thank you. And your Forum for Support is just brilliant as well. Well done guys, you rock.

Thanks so much lisawilkins!

Hi ThemeNectar!

Installed your theme, and it works nicely. However, for some reason one of the social icons for the header won’t show up at all. I have 4 defined (twitter, youtube, google+, linkedin) and the youtube icon simply refuses to show up. I’ve tried disabling and enabling the icon, the complete social icons header, etc, but nothing seems to fix it. Looking at the code, seems that the YouTube icon is the only one not receiving a ::before on the i tag in the li’s. Any idea?

Thanks much.

You could open a ticket in regards at themenectar.ticksy.com/ticket/ :)

Just did, ticket number is 398769. Thanks!

Nectar Slider with the new arrows in fade mode viewing on Firefox on an iMac – when arrows clicked, the slide bounces left and right and then the next slide shows. Still errors in the most recent Salient version.

ok thank you

You’re welcome :)

Is there any way to remove the padding at the top of pricing tables? I assume it is there to handle the highlighted column when used. I do not want a highlighted column for one particular table, but I do want a title directly above the pricing column. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

Absolutely. I am wanting to get the subheader (U.S. & CANADA TITLE REPORTS) down to just above the pricing table on this page, so I can use it as a simple but easy to read rate sheet. I don’t want to impact other pricing tables as I’m using them in the typical way (with highlighted columns) on other pages.

http://bfb.0d5.myftpupload.com/rates/

Please disregard. We have gone another direction for that page for unrelated reasons. Thanks for all your help!

Hey – glad you got it sorted :)

Hello,

Woocommerce is saying the cart-totals.php in Salient is old, should this be a worry?

thank you :)

yes. says version 2.3.0 and woocommerce is at 2.3.6. I know sometimes these are necessary to change so often, but was bringing to your attention.

i compared to woocommerce file and it has some differences in it.

Hey – yes, i’ll be sorting this in the upcoming update :)

Hi,

One question:

What shortcode did you use to create the div that contains the quotes (with a transparent background on the left and the white logotypes on the right (on the homepage that appears by default, below the counters)

I’m looking to replicate that styling on my website.

Thanks!

Regards Joao

Hey Joao!

That’s a testimonial slider which you can find inside of visual composer :)

Cheers

Hello,

Thank you for your help this far. Here’s another question. I am trying to use Custom CCS to replace the background-color of a Separator with text div element where “Vacantes disponibles” is ( http://bit.ly/1xlh6a4 ).

So, I create the Custom CSS in the ”</> CSS” button on top of the Edit Page, enter the CSS ( http://bit.ly/1NU0Qr0 ), then, type the new class on the Separator with text element ( http://bit.ly/1AxdfXQ ), but the background-color stays the same.

I have tried to add the class from the .css file, but the best I have achieved is turning the box around the text transparent using “inherit”, but the bottom line crosses the text.

Is there something else I should try? Thank you

Hey ViaEducacion,

Could you kindly share the page URL in regards?

Cheers

Hello!

Is there an e-mail I can share the ip? It is in development and there is no domain yet

Hey – could you kindly open a ticket in regards at themenectar.ticksy.com/ticket/

Hi TN! Back again… (wasn’t sure if I should post new or stay in our previous thread, since the other issue was resolved – if you prefer one thread, please let me know).

1) I’m having a small issue with the gallery. Scaling the page up and down leaves a small white sliver to the right of each gallery thumbnail. It only happens at certain sizes. All my images are larger than 600×400. Screengrab is here: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/28713589/thumbswhite.png

2) I’d like to get even gutters between images on my blog, as seen on your demo here: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/28713589/ownage.png but when I lay things out this way, I get thin vertical gutters but wide horizontal ones, as such. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/28713589/gutters.png

Thank you!

Hey again!

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

.portfolio-items .col {
  background-color: transparent!important;
}

2. That was actually just a column setup within visual composer using image elements in each – it’s not an image gallery or portfolio element

Cheers

Hi TN, Regarding #2 above (columns within visual composer using image elements in each, as seen here: http://themeforest.net/item/salient-responsive-multipurpose-theme/full_screen_preview/4363266), am I correct that images set up this way can’t be navigated with arrow keys (next/previous)? Is that because each image is in a different column? Thanks!

Hey – the only way that would be possible is if you used a carousel element with the images inside but it wouldn’t quite look the same

Cheers

Tried searching for this but couldn’t find it. I’d like to have a footer menu item open in a new window. How do I go about doing this? Tried to use .html code in the menu item but didn’t work. Thanks.

Hey shorefellowship,

All the links in your footer currently have similar spacing – which widget is the one you’ve added the custom links to?

Cheers

I actually took it off because I couldn’t figure out the spacing. It was the link that says MOPS on the bottom. How can I get that to open in a new window?

Hey – if you’re using a custom menu widget when actually creating the links in the menu click on the link for Screen Options in the top right of your screen. Hidden away in the dropdown there, below the usual Show on screen checkboxes, is another line of Show advanced menu properties checkboxes.

Just check the box for Link Target and then all your Menu Items will have the additional option of Link Target : “Same window or tab” or “New window or tab”

Hi Phil. I’m using the pp class to display PDF documents within the iFrame Lightbox. This is working great in Firefox, but in Chrome and IE, I just get the loader icon, which just hangs. I know there were some past issues with the Lightbox and Chrome, but I wasn’t sure if these issues were resolved. I’m running Salient v5.0. I tested this in Chrome v41 and IE v11. Thanks for your help!

Hey Joe!

Could you kindly share your URL in regards so I can test the issue?

Chers

I’m trying to add my logo to the Salient theme. Is there an easy way to do this without getting into the files and hand editing them?

If not, can someone offer some guidance on where and how to do this? It appears the them UI in wp-admin only lets me add text for the title of the site and a tag line (which gets truncated at the top of my browser anyway for some reason)

Hey baylor3217,

You can upload your logo in the Salient options panel > header options tab :)

Cheers

Great work. I love the template, however, it is very slow. Via Yslow, it received a D. “Overall performance score 65”

Is there any way to streamline it a bit? I love the design but if it takes too long to load, people won’t wait around to see it.

Hey arteest, you could use W3 Total Cache for caching and bwp minify for code minification – this should increase the pagespeed noticeably :)
