Hey Guys,

another thing we noticed when developing with this theme is that when we hide a row within VC, the resources will still load in the background. (like images) Also the hide option on mobile seems to show several ‘bars’ and ‘sections’ even when it supposed to be hidden. I think this must be some bug because when hidden is selected for say mobile, it should hide the row so the element is seamlessly followed by the row underneath.

Can you guys take a look at it?

Hey iMytz, could you kindly share a URL where I can see the issue?

Sure I will submit a ticket for this with a temporary link

Thank you :)

The image that I set is not displaying on my Product Category page…I’ve changed that image, but it’s still not showing on the live page. Is there something in settings that I need to change? Please help! Thanks!

Hey – have you tried running this plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/ and what size have you entered to change them to?

I ran the plugin, but nothing changed..the image size is set to 116×150

Hey again, I’m currently seeing them being served 224×301 – keep in mind regardless of what you change the image size to it will still scale to fit the column spacing defined in the theme. Are you simply trying to make smaller columns e.g. 5 or 6 per row?

I want to ask, how to increase width of drop-down meniu? Like that: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/5751206/question.jpg

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

header#top nav > ul > li > a {
  background-color: #888;
  height: 96px;
  margin-bottom: 10px;
}

You’re welcome :)

Hi Phil. Can you please take a look at #399295 when you get a chance. This issue is in regards to PDFs not loading using the Lightbox and “pp” class in Chrome and IE. Thanks.

Hey – will take a look as soon as I can :)

What happen with your great adopted Visual Composer?! The latest install showing me completely different interface I use to work with! I really do not like it and want it the way how it was before.

Hey cleardesignnz, VC had to be updated due to ThemeForest guidelines – the only way to use the old one would be to use a Salient version before 5.5

Hey Nectar,

Im trying to recreate the frostwave/about us extended page, ( http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-frostwave/about/about-me-extended/ ) do you have template i can put into visual composer, the file doesnt seem to exist anywhere? So im working on it by eye and cant get it exact, and is becoming time consuming.

Thanks in advance

Hey – here’s the code to add in your text tab on your editor: http://pastebin.com/xvMMzYfY

Cheers

Hey Nectar,

Do you have any idea why my maximum file size is 2mb? This is driving me nuts. Plus for some reason my rolex badge disappeared from my site. Thanks to Tahir I got my VC to start working again but that disappeared too. Could you please help me with this? All my websites with the themenectar now have a 2mb upload file limit.

Hey!

Could you kindly share your URL showing the rolex badge issue?

Cheers

Yes of course. I am working with Tahir on inserting it into the child theme instead of inserting the main parent file since I did not have a child installed.

www.dennisjewelry.com ( If you look at the right side of the nav bar it does not appear )

Tahir uploaded the javascript previously to dennisjewelry.com to mimic www.lmfj.com a badge that appears on the right of the nav but it disappeared all of a sudden and I have no idea why. If you could shed any light on the situation it would be greatly appreciated.

Hey again – i’m currently seeing it displaying: http://i.imgur.com/bdy0xyB.jpg what browser are you noticing it missing on?

Hi,

We are using the salient theme and it is great! One problem that I can’t figure out – everything becomes responsive except for the nectar sliders? Can you help – it is tiny on mobile and hard to read – thanks! Here is the website – were using nectar sliders on the home page + a few other pages, having the issue with all of them: http://bit.ly/1y45Z5y

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

@media only screen and (max-width: 690px) {
body .nectar-slider-wrap[data-full-width="true"][data-fullscreen="false"] .swiper-slide .content p, body .nectar-slider-wrap[data-full-width="boxed-full-width"][data-fullscreen="false"] .swiper-slide .content p, .full-width-content .vc_span12 .nectar-slider-wrap[data-fullscreen="false"] .swiper-slide .content p {
  font-size: 11px!important;
  line-height: 18px!important;
}
html body .nectar-slider-wrap[data-fullscreen="false"] .swiper-slide .button.transparent a {
  padding: 3px 10px!important;
  font-size: 10px!important;
}
}

Hi – thank you for the quick reply – i copied the code and added it into the custom css box in my salient options panel and it didn’t do anything?

Hey – have you tried clearing your cache? I’m currently seeing the sizes bigger

Cheers

How do you save a page builder element to use elsewhere on the website? So if I have a complex row that has many custom settings and want to use it in three other places, is there a way to save this as a single entity. Without page builder I would just copy and paste the code for that section.

Thank you!

NVM just add the themes on top of each other then delete unnecessary stuff!

Hey – glad you sorted it :)

Can I have the logo centered in the menu?

Like this: http://imgur.com/YqxKJaq

I understand you probably need to edit the code for this, but can you please give me any tip to get it done somehow! Thanks

Hey wuzup – this would actually require modding to the header.php in addition to new css since the menu would need to be split completely. This is an item on the wishlist but for now I would recommend checking out Envato studio in regards

Can I use brightcove video in the nectar slider? If so, how?

Thanks again! KM

Hey! Could you kindly share the link of the page using the video so I can ensure I know which one you’re talking about?

I am using the .icon-tiny as bullets, but the text wraps and does not indent. How do I get the .icon-tiny bullets’ text to indent?

Thanks, KM

Hey,

Could you kindly share your URL in regards so I can take a look?

Cheers

Hi, trying to help to a client with this theme. Is it possible to resize the following blue bar : http://themenectar.com/demo/salient/ It’s a blue bar with the following quote: “Stop blending in with the rest of the crowd and start leaving your mark on the web”

we’d like to resize the bar to be thinner and hopefully with text half the size as well.

Hey – yes, you can control the top/bottom spacing via the padding input fields in the row. You can also use a different heading tag or just change the font size for that one in the typography options tab of your theme options panel

Hey ThemeNectar,

Just as a heads up you might want to update the included Salient child theme on the next round of updates. It’s still using the @import method to load parent styles and this is no longer the best practice.

The correct method is to add a wp_enqueue_scripts action and use wp_enqueue_style() in the child theme’s functions.php.

Cheers!

On a side note I’m also getting the following WooCommerce message:

“Your theme has bundled outdated copies of WooCommerce template files. If you notice an issue on your site, this could be the reason. Please contact your theme developer for further assistance. You can review the System Status report for full details or learn more about WooCommerce Template Structure here.”

Hey!

1. I’ve noted this for the next release

2. 5.5.5 should clear this issue :)

I’m getting this error when I try to install the VC plugin: Destination folder already exists. /home/content/21/8685521/html/wp-content/plugins/js_composer_salient/

Hey Dallasn8, it appears you already have a copy of the plugin in that destination – could you kindly check that and delete it if there?

Is there a way to remove the vertical lines on the top menu bar? A couple of the lines seem to take the same color properties as the color chosen for the social icons/text, when viewed in responsive (mainly tablets).

Hey – could you kindly share your URL so I can take a look?

Cheers

Hi Sir,

When viewing my site on a mobile phone all the content seems rather close to the sides

Is there anyway I could add some padding on the left and right for mobile?

thanks

Hey – add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:

@media only screen and (max-width: 690px) {
body .container, body div.slider-nav {
  max-width: 280px!important;
} 
}

Hi Nectar. I wonder if you could help me. Can you let me know how to remove the white sace at the bottom of my parallax images please? www.outpostvfx.co.uk

thanks

Hey! Are you using the latest release of the theme?

Try opening your init.js file located in the js folder and changing this line:

$(this).find('.row-bg').css({'height': $(this).outerHeight(true)*2.8, 'margin-top': '-' + ($(this).outerHeight(true)*2.8)/2 + 'px' });
to this:
$(this).find('.row-bg').css({'height': $(this).outerHeight(true)*3.8, 'margin-top': '-' + ($(this).outerHeight(true)*3.8)/2 + 'px' });

Hi there,

First of all, I could not be more impressed with the theme. It’s absolutely fantastic!

However, I have an issue with my site and I can’t work out what the problem is.

The nectar slider, and all page animation effects have stopped working on my homepage – http://www.garydunn.co.uk/

However on other pages, I.e. http://www.garydunn.co.uk/pensions/pension-reviews/

They work absolutely fine.

Can someone work out what I’m doing wrong? I’ve spent ages looking, reverted back to numerous previous page versions and found nothing.

Edit: Testimonials aren’t loading either.

Hey!

I’m only seeing one slide in the code as well – could you kindly open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can check out the setup more? https://themenectar.ticksy.com

Cheers

Hey guys, could you please take a look at ALT tags. We created lot’s of SEO Alt tags for headers in Wordpress media library. In most themes these ALT tags are located an loaded automatically, but it does not show up in Salient. Any chance to fix this? it’s not logical to add ALT Html code to EVERY picture on the website when it could be managed from one place. (media library)

Thanks a lot!

If you open a ticket in regards I could give you modded file earlier than the next release :) https://themenectar.ticksy.com/

Cheers

I will submit a ticket now, I hope you can provide me the fix soon. thanks a lot!

You’re welcome :)
