Hi themenectar. I have a question regarding one page websites.

1) Is it possible to attach a different menu to one page only? 2) Is it possible to remove the home link from the header image?

Here is the situation for question 1) I changed my website to a one-page-website and it works very well. Except for my blog, blog posts and portfolio projects, because of the navigation menu which uses the tag references for the homepage.

When clicking on a blog post f.e., it will load a new page for the post, but somehow it doesn’t seem to work well. Sometimes the page stays white for some reason. Or it loads super slow. And after reading the post, I would like to go and see other pages again, but because I am not on the home page any more, the menu will not refer to the right item, and it won’t work any more.

I tried to outsmart this problem but couldn’t find the options available to do it. I created a new menu that would only be used on the blog page. And this menu would link back to the homepage, including the tags (which works if it’s something like www.website.com/#blog

But I can’t find a way to attach a different menu to one single page. Is this even possible? Or do you know of another solution to this problem that I am overlooking?

situation for question 2) When using the one page website, for some reason the page turns totally white if I click the header image to go back to the homepage. Any idea what could cause it? I wanted to switch it off so people won’t stumble on white pages while checking my website

Thanks so much for your time again!

One more question though. Can you explain why I can’t see the blocks with images of my blog post on mobile devices? What am I missing? What can I do to make them visible? I am a bit desperate as of why things dont’ show on my tablet and phone.

Some issues I am having: It looks like the images on my pages (I used an image block for them) get stuck during their fade-in animation on mobile devices. The little image slider on my frontpage and contact page stay semi-transperant and small. The images in my blog post + text won’t show at all on a mobile device either. I wonder if it’s because I used the images in a block with 3 columns. http://miriambos.com/how-to-add-a-logo-to-a-photo-on-your-phone/ And for some reason the following page doesn’t load its content at all. It stays blank http://miriambos.com/request-a-password

Feeling a bit desperate. I haven’t had these problems before the upgrade I made. This weekend I decided tor revamp all my pages a bit and used the pagebuilder more then before. I like how it works. But for some reason my mobile devices think differently :)

Hey! I can actually see the images displaying normally on my GS5/iPad – which mobile devices are you so I can try to test on them as well

Cheers

Hi, thanks for your reply :D

It’s on both my iphone 6 and my ipad (a 2 year old version, but updated). I emptied cache on the website and also removed history etc from both devices. Still the images stay small and semi transperant or are not showing at all. And the columns (when I use 3 of them) are not showing either.

Any use of a gallery (whether the VC gallery or a third party plugin) is causing my page to create a blank column down the right side and push the images off screen to the left. See here: https://theclearancelab.com/clients/

Any idea what is going on? It was all working properly before today, and no updates, installs, etc. have happened that might have caused it.

Hey,

I’m only seeing that issue occur in larger screens, could you kindly open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can take a peek?

Cheers

Will do. Thanks!

You’re welcome :)

How does this 3 bar menu item like in the newer demos? How can I configure or at least activate it? O.o

Hey,

it’s an option in your header settings tab in the theme options panel. Once you activate it there will be a new widget area in regards in the appearance > widgets section of your admin panel

Cheers

Hi, Trying to use the share to Pinterest button on a product returns the error

Parameter 'image_url' (value //tiku.eu/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/tiku-march-164-600x630.jpg) is not a valid URL format.

I have tested this in both safari and chrome.

Thanks.

Hey,

Do you have any plugins or a server setting active that might be stripping the http from the URL?

Cheers

So it turns out it was the CloudFlare plugin stopping it. Don’t suppose you know of a way that would allow both to work?

There might be a config option within that service to allow full URLs – have you tried reaching out to their support in regards?

Hello,

I have four portforlio main images being displayed on my home page. I would like to adjust them to be smaller on mobile. Could you tell me what codes to adjust for the sizes of it. I know how to target on mobile just need to know what edits to make to make it smaller.

Thanks.

Hey,

could you kindly share your URL in regards – Are you trying to make them a 2 col layout?

Cheers

http://rechargedsolutions.com/ and we are trying to make so that the four featured portfolio images on the homepage, when on mobile devices such an iPhone, are much less height as they take up a lot of screen space. I am wondering if we have to serve a vertically less tall image on mobile devices to replace that featured image just on mobile devices. What are your thoughts and thank you in advanced!

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

@media only screen and (max-width: 990px) and (min-width: 470px) {
.portfolio-items .elastic-portfolio-item, body #post-area.masonry.meta_overlaid .masonry-blog-item.regular {
  width: 49.8%!important;
}
}

Hello,

i really need urgent help. I wrote a week ago and also write a support ticket as you told me… but my problem is not solved till now but i think it is not that complicated.

i wrote this text within the support ticket (also with login data and url address): (...) I have done an intern page for our client. But there is a occurred problem with the Portfolio Grid. As soon as I resize the Browser Window, the Grid has big Spaces between the thumbs. (...)

Tahir answered this within the support ticket system: “Please turn on the Fullwidth option. “

But what does this mean? The blog type is already set to “Masonry Blog Fullwidth”. also “Enable Responsive DesignThis adjusts the layout of your website depending on the screen size/device” is ON.

Would be very great to get answer soon!

TICKET NUMBER is: #405273

Thank you very much

Hey! i’ll review the ticket shortly :)

Cheers

I’m having an issue with an unordered centred list on mobile devices.

My list appears fine on desktop, the bullet points are tucked nicely next to the words, but on mobiles the bullet points are hard left. I’ve tried css-ing the points to none, but it has indented the centered text so it’s off center. I’ve also tried inside and outside css and that didn’t change the behavior either.

Any ideas?

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

.main-content ul li {
  list-style-position: inside!important;
}

That got it! Cheers :) I’d missed off the !important >_<

Hola Salient friends – is there any way of implementing SamHerbert’s SVG-Loaders for page transition loaders please? Thanks! https://github.com/SamHerbert/SVG-Loaders

Hey!

Those certainly are cool – it would need to be integrated into the header.php file though at the ajax-loading-screen section

Cheers

Hi ThemeNectar, at first: awsome theme!great work! Its my “first time” with wordpress so sorry for the “nooby” questions ;).

I want to imbed a comment section (blog > “Leave a Reply”) for the portfolios. How can i do that?

Thanks

Hey! By default every portfolio item allows for comments – when you’re editing a project in the admin panel scroll to the bottom and locate the discussion metabox for the “Allow comments” checkbox :)

Hi, I’m trying to create a new portfolio page after 1 year. In all the old portfolio items, you could tick a box, whether you wanted to have the gallery slider activated or not. Now this option is desappeared, and my new portfolio pages have all a preview gallery slider up on the right side of the page. I want to hide this preview, and still have just the slider gallery. How can I do this? This is a page like I want: http://noistudio.com/portfolio/biblioteca-di-garbagnate/ this is the new page with the preview i don’y want: http://noistudio.com/portfolio/nuovo-polo-fieristico-di-carmagnola/ Thanks

Hey, 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.

ok, but where can I find this “image gallery element”? before I added media and I created a gallery. Now if I do the same, the gallery doesn’t have the options you say. Have I to add a nectar shortcode? But in the nectar shortcodes there isn’t “image gallery element”.

Hey – it’s located inside of the Visual Composer page builder, not in the shortcode generator https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N4mt0lOJ888

Cheers

Thank you again for a create theme.

I have onepage and I want that every row height is 100%. So just one row is visible at the time. When user click menu then it scrolls another row.

So is there a way to make row height 100%? Kind of like parallax slider which height is always full browser window height.

Hey,

Unfortunately this isn’t an option yet but it’s an item of the wishlist

Cheers

I am using 5.5.5, have set up contact page in settings and no marker show up on the map. All works fine if I use a page builder map element but the contact page does not work.

?

Hey – since this isn’t a known bug 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/

Hi, I didn’t purchase this theme myself but I’m working on a client’s website who purchased it themselve. (http://www.bnbmanager.nl/ )

Is it possible to edit the width of (only) the mobile Nectar slider? Since this client has a background image with some text, part of the text of mobile slider gets out-of-screen. So I’d like the background image to be ‘zoomed out’ a little bit more.

Hope to hear from you!

Thanks.

Hey! You can split your css up with this in the custom css box located in your Salient Options panel:

@media only screen and (max-width: 1000px) {
   /*mobile rule here*/
}
@media only screen and (min-width: 1000px) {
  /*desktop rule here*/
}

Thanks! :)

Hi mate,

I have downloaded the main file and imported the dummy content for the single page demo but I cannot find it anywhere in the ‘pages’ section.. Where can I get the actual one page content as found in the demo?

Also, with a Salient one page demo, is only one page indexed by google? Or are individual sections indexed as a page each eg. home, About us etc… Please explain how this works with the Salient theme.

Thanks

Hey,

1. There’s a separate dummy data file for the one page setup – it should show up as the page “Home”

2. Only the one page would be indexed

Cheers

Do you have only html version?

Hey, unfortunately it’s only a WP theme as of now

Quick question I want to use this high quality video http://www.pond5.com/stock-footage/9793935/black-ink-splats-paint-drips.html as the background of the portfolio eye candy. will this work?

Hey – yes, you can use any video you desire as long as you upload it in mp4 and webm formats (converters are listed in the user guide)

Cheers!

I deactivated all of my plugins and its still doing it. It happened after I upgraded the theme and downloaded the Salient visual composer plugin but even after I deactivated that plugin it still does it.

Hey bosueke,

I’m now seeing the mobile displaying through Salient as opposed to a different mobile theme – have you cleared your cache on your phone? If so please let me know what device you’re checking on

Cheers

Good day,

I have a problem with the “project categories” function. I deleted all the dummy categories (e.g. “photography” etc.) and tried to make my own. However, the new categories does not appear for some reason (and yes I have assigned my portfolio items to the new categories). On the other hand, if I remake the dummy categories they appear perfectly.

What shall I do? With best regards, NJ

Hey,

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/

Hi, I would like to place a promo bar at the top of my page (above the logo and social media icons area. I tried the DW Promobar plugin but it ended up covering the social icons above my logo area.

What would be the best way to add a little div or something above that area that float with the floating navigation bar when people scroll? I’d like it to be always visible.

Hey,

could you kindly share a URL in regards so I can assist?

Cheers

Hi there,

We’re looking to not have the Google Map scroll on mobile as you swipe down the page. Currently, especially for full-width, taller maps, once you get to the map on the screen and continue swiping to scroll, the map pans around instead of the actual page scrolling. Can you add an option (or provide custom code) to disable this?

Thanks!

Hey,

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

@media only screen and (max-width: 690px) {
  .nectar-google-map { z-index: -1; }
}

Cheers

Perfect, that took care of it! Thanks a bunch!

You’re welcome :)
