Hey, Is there any solution to link my email directly from the header ? I know I’ve to use : Email Me But it’s just the way to link this directly from the my button contact in the header www.clementbreuille.com Thank you

Hey,

you can add it via the Custom Link section of the menu page. Just add mailto:someone@yoursite.com as the link and Contact Me as the label.

Cheers

done, it was that simple ? ^^ thank you

You’re welcome :)

Hi, ever since I made the 2.3.6. update with WooCommerce, the checkout feature does not work in IE anymore. This has been over 5 days now. The state dropdown menu is frozen on the screen where it doesn’t allow the customer to type in any of their information. It’s like the java script is breaking the forms. Unfortunately most of our customers are from the IE browser (Firefox,Chrome work fine).

I don’t know if this information helps at all to fix the problem: >Your theme has bundled outdated copies of WooCommerce template files. >salient/woocommerce/cart/cart-totals.php version 2.3.0 is out of date. The core version is 2.3.6,

Thank you and please let me know if you can fix this issue.

Hey superhealth, the update for that will be out later today – thanks for reporting :)

I appreciate it! Thanks a lot for checking into this. I look forward to the update today.

Hi,

In your eCommerce demo when hovering over woocommerce products you see the price and category labels. Would it be possible to show the product description on hover in combi or instead of the category labels?

Cheers

Hey – as of now that would require modding the woocommerce theme files in regards but I’ve noted the idea :)

Hey guys are there any updated WooCommerce template files with the new Salient update and if so how do I update my WooCommerce template files?

Hey ivory2345, the update for that will be out later today :)

Hi,

I would like to import a custom font I have. is it possible to do this? If it requires a plugin, would you be able to kindly let me know of a free plugin to do this?

Hi,

Everytime woocommerce is updated there is an issue with: Your theme has bundled outdated copies of WooCommerce template files.

Is there a simple way around this?

Regards

Hey – it shouldn’t occur everytime but an update will be out later today to remedy this :)

OK – so I spent all day trying to make this work:

Nectar Slider on home page with Imagemapper (image map plugin) shortcode in the caption field.

Image map links work on desktop, iPad both in portrait and landscape view.

Image map links do NOT work on iPhone portrait or landscape view.

But… get this, the links DO work on iPhone portrait or landscape view when I put the same shortcode in the Slide Out Widget Area.

It seems that something in the Nectar Slider is deactivating the hyperlinked areas of the image map but only on smartphone.

Failing a fix for this – how far away is the VC update which allows for a different Home page on selected mobile devices?

Site: sydneyicecream.com.au (behind coming soon page) If you don’t have login details any more, please let me know.

Thanks again for looking, Wizard247

P.S. There are also supposed to be hover overlays on the image map which work in the Slide Out Widget Area but not when used in the Nectar Slider…

Any ideas on this?

I realise you don’t provide support when it involves other plugins, but is there any way I can have a completely different Home page for smartphone layouts?

Thanks, Wizard247

Never mind! I’ve changed my approach and have found a workaround. :)

Hey – glad you sorted it :)

hi, im using salient theme in the mobile version when i am scrolling the page how can i fix the menu

how can i change the portfolio url ? ex : www.test/portfolio/test i want 2 change the portfolio name as my wish

i have applied the menu code but when i am scrolling the menu that main menu is not in top, please refer http://dev2.maiglobetravels.com/

secondary menu is not fixed please give me a solution

ThemeNectar,

This is a great theme! Just one small problem though. My portfolio is invisible. My friend bought this for me and a few weeks ago it was working fine. Now, my portfolio page has a big gap where the items should be. These invisible items are still linked, but I cannot see anything.

Link is http://www.thinktrack.ca/portfolio

Anything I can do? Restore a specific theme file?

Thanks. :)

Hey! Could you verify that your theme is using the current version and that no plugins are causing the conflict ?

Cheers

A plugin was causing the conflict. Thanks for the help. :) AMAZING theme by the way.

Glad to hear :)

Cheers

I’m guessing that the woocommerce product VC module ignores the products set menu order because only in the VC modules does it display them out of order compared to the shop page.

If that’s true, I hope you can update it to follow the products menu order.

Thanks!

Hey – i’ve noted to test with that, thanks for noting :)

Awesome, thanks! One more note regarding woo products. I tried using a woocommerce shortcode to display products by category instead of the VC module. So I placed this shortcode into a text block. The output looks quite bad. I removed all my own custom styles in the child theme, and it still looks bad. So I’m guessing the parent theme needs to accommodate the styles for this shortcode.

[product_category category="appliances"]

Thanks!

Hey,

could you kindly share a URL in regards so I can see what’s causing the styling issue?

Cheers

Hi,

I was wondering how I can use WPB VC + Salient VC together? Some modules like the Post Grid in WPB VC is really useful but it seems to be missing in the Salient VC.

When I have WPB + Salient activated together, the website just has a white page meaning there is a conflict.

Any solutions or will there be an update to integrate the use of WPB VC?

Thanks

Hey – unfortunately you can’t use both at the same time as of now. This would require some custom development but the new grid option in VC may make its way into the Salient version

Cheers

Hi,

I love your Ecommerce layout, but i’m wodering if the theme has the Login/Sign up header?..I’m gonna use the them wite Dokan(Multivendors) theme. Will the theme work well with that plug in?.

Thanks and best regards,

Hey,

I haven’t tested with that plugin yet unfortunately, please let me know if you encounter any issues though :)

Cheers

I have the same parallax performance issue… site is testing.layer3.net.nz main page feels very ‘laggy’. Remove the parallax and it’s fine.

Hey – if you update to the current release the shakiness will go away when using the styled scrollbar option :)

actually had it on, but turned it off/on again and it seemed to do the trick. Thanks for keeping up with this old comment :)

Hey,

great theme but it has 2 big problems imo:

1. Full width post readability.

The optimal line length for body text is considered to be 50-75 characters per line. Salient blog demo has 140+ which makes it really hard to read.

Salient posts should be more like https://medium.com/.

2. The two identical hamburger icons on mobile when using the slide out widget.

It’s bad (UX/UI) design. It confuses users because they have to guess which icon is the site’s menu. This also means higher bounce rate if they don’t find what they are expecting on the first click.

What are your thoughts on this matter?

Hey,

1. You could either use custom css to further shorten the width of the content area or simply increase the font size in the typography options panel

2. This is an item on the wishlist to allow the user to define a custom icon for the slide out widget area – for now it would take custom css if you’re making use of both the regular menu and the slide out widget area together

Cheers

Is there a way with the Team Member element to change the picture from black and white to color when someone hovers over a picture? Here’s the page http://freshstart.church/the-team

Thanks.

Hey,

This wouldn’t be possible without some custom development as of now unfortunately

Cheers

Hi, is there a way to make the zoom effect on the portfolio preview go from black and white to color? The default is a dark-overlay to full color, but I’d love to go from a desaturated image to full color. Thanks!!!

Hey,

This wouldn’t be possible without some custom development as of now unfortunately

Very shaky performance of parallax background in Google Chrome if smooth scroll is enabled.

Do you know anything about that? If I scroll, the bg is behaving so very much NOT smooth, that I have to enable either parallax or smooth scroll.

That does not happen if I use a 3rd party plugin for smooth scroll but I can not use it because it is changing the container width somehow and that produces a gap between fullwidth container an the screen edge.

So I really would like to use your build in smooth scroll but what is this what I see in Google Chrome? I have to find out if I only see this on my machine or you, too.

If you respond to this, I will send you details about where to see it.

Salient v5.5 separated Visual Composer into a plugin and it is no longer automatically built in – this means when you activate the theme you’ll have to still install the Visual Composer plugin via the admin panel. It is included still with the theme and no purchase is necessary, just head to the plugins section of your admin panel to install & activate. Cheers!

I installed the new update, activated it, cleared the browser cache and nothing has changed regarding the shaky parallax performance in google chrome. ????

I am using a very customized Salient version, so I can not just run every update. However, I installed the original salient, latest version and nothing changed with the performance in chrome. Can you please talk to me about this more in detail? Obviously this was a known issue for you, what exactly have you changed to fix it or at least try to fix it. I had to switch back to my custom salient version but as I said, there was no difference in regards of parallax performance in chrome.

Hi Theme Nectar,

I’m trying to make a portfolio similar to the one used on ‘Portfolio Masonry Style Four’, but I can’t seem to get the font you’ve used was this already set as a default, as mine is different?

Thanks for your help.

Thanks for the quick response that’s great all sorted, not sure if this is a bug or something I’ve done wrong but my icons all have a white background rather than matching the column/row bg colour, I had this all working then it changed and I can’t figure out what I might of done – you can see what I mean here – http://www.aletalkproductions.co.uk/page-2/

If there is anyway you could advise me on how to remove the white circle around each icon that would be great.

Ah, just figured it out, it only works on full width background rather than full width contents i think

Hey – glad you sorted it :)

Hi Theme Nectar, How do I change the Recent Projects Heading color to white? The default is gray. http://loureirojiujitsu.com

Thank you, Maurino Loureiro

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

.carousel-wrap[data-full-width="true"] .carousel-heading {
  background-color: #fff!important;
}

I tried but still not working.

Hey – I don’t see that snippet getting added, could you kindly open a ticket in regards so I can take a look? themenectar.ticksy.com/

Cheers

Does anyone know what the bold font is that is being used in the navigation? Also, how do I create the effect used on the home page where the slider image extends to the very top of the page and the navigation sits on top of it?

Hey arteest,

1. The font is called “Lovelo”

2. You can activate the transparent header option in your header options tab within the Salient options panel :)

Cheers
