Hi,
I saw that you replied to fleshlesh3 about visual composer saying:
Hey – Salient v5.5 has separated Visual Composer into a plugin and 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 (there will be a prompt at the top of your screen). Cheers!
I’m not getting this prompt at the top of my screen in the admin panel. How do I do this download?
Thanks for your help!
Hey courtrightdesign,
you can find the plugin file inside of the plugins folder within the Salient theme directory if you need to install it manually 
Cheers
Hi
Great theme, one question. I’d like to add a drop shadow to the text in the page headers to make it stand out a bit more against the images I’m using. Can you advise the CSS. I’ve tried a few CSS options from searches I’ve done here, but none are adding a drop shadow to the text.
Thanks, Paul
Hey!
Try this in the custom css box in the Salient options panel:
#page-header-bg h1, #page-header-bg .subheader {
display: inline-block!important;
background: none repeat scroll right -53px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5)!important;
box-shadow: 10px 0 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5), -10px 0 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5)!important;
-moz-box-shadow: 10px 0 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5), -10px 0 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5)!important;
-webkit-box-shadow: 10px 0 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5), -10px 0 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5)!important;
}
Thanks a lot, that works fine 
Cheers 
Hello There,
I am wondering on how to overlay a subscribe form(first name, last name and email address) on top of one of the slides in nectar slider.
Thanks
Hey,
you could paste the shortcode or html inside of the caption field for your slide

I’m not sure what version of VC Salient uses, since you said it’s a custom port, but what happens when VC updates, does that get updated in the theme some how? I’d like to ensure I’m using the latest and greatest version of VC. Thanks!
Also doesn’t look like front end mode works with this theme, is that correct?
Hey! The front end editor was disabled but the theme updates the VC when applicable, it is a forked version so not all features are included
Ah, I see. Thank you.
Cheers
Can I add multiple themes to one website? I would like to combine the blog creative theme with the modern creative.
Hey,
You’d simply have to rename the initial demo pages imported in order to import the next set of dummy data

Hey,
I have purchased this beautiful theme, made a new installation of wordpress and added this theme, activated without issue, but when I install and activate required plugins (composer, contact form, woocommerce) it goes 500 internal server error, and I have to delete those plugins via ftp, because I am not able to access my admin at all. Whats wrong?
Thanks, best regards,
David
Hey,
Have you narrowed it down to a specific one that causes the issue for you? e.g. you can activate the first 2 but the third presents the problem
Cheers
I made some tests and its visual composer which causes the problem
Hey again – could you kindly get in touch with you hosting company to have them check the error logs so we can see exactly what the issue is that you’re server is experiencing?
I spoke with support of my hosting (ipage) and they resolved the problem. They increased memory limit, and now it is working.
Hey, glad to hear! 
Hi! I’m using this code to show mobile menu always:
header#top .sf-menu { display: none; }
header#top #toggle-nav { padding-right: 20px; display: inherit!important; }
body #header-space {
height: 56px!important;
display: block!important;
}
body #header-outer {
position: fixed !important;
}
#mobile-menu {
position: fixed!important;
top: 52px!important;
width: 100%!important;
}
But when I click link at the mobile menu scroll does not go on right position at the page. It seems to take height from mobile menu and leave space (depending on height of mobile menu) before right row. Any ways to fix this?
Hey,
could you kindly share your URL in regards so I can take a look?
Cheers
Hi! I sent URL from contact form of your profile page. Thanks!

Hi guys,
Don’t suppose you have plans for a vertically oriented menu layout at any stage?
Thanks as always 
Hey – it’s actually on the wishlist 
Awesome, awesome, and a third for good measure, awesome

Sorry, I know these things are difficult to put an ETA on, but do you have a rough idea of when that update might be ready?
It actually might come in the next update but that’s still a bit away

I am converting a client’s Bootstrap site to a Salient WP site. What is the preferred way to have both reside on the same server and be able to activate one and deactivate the other without removing them?
Hey – please see my last comment in regards
I am converting a client’s Bootstrap site to a Salient WP site. What is the preferred way to have both reside on the same server and be able to activate one and deactivate the other without removing them?
Hey,
You could keep them in different directories and keep the current site intact while you build the WP one – you could then switch the domain to point to that other directory when you’re done with it
Cheers
Migration Question. I developed a WP site on my host and would now like to transfer it to my client’s host. What is the best way of doing so?

hi, is there a way to edit the layout of a product page? i mean is it possible to edit the layout as we can on single pages using visual editor? currently, you have 2 different ways for the products on demo store but i dont know how to change them? Also i would like to know if we have the option to rearrange the things on the page, for instance i would like to move some of the technical information under the title and not in the tabs under the image. please let me know if there is any documentation for that? thanks.
Hey,
If you wanted to edit the layouts for the product pages and the single page you’d need to see the files inside of the woocommerce folder within Salient in regards. If you’re just trying to access to provided layouts in Salient see the WooCommerce tab within the theme options panel 
Cheers
Hello,
When I activate contact form 7 plugin, page builder and some other editing buttons break. here is how it looks: http://abload.de/img/contactform7problem5xla6.pngAs soon as I deactivate plugin everything is back to normal.
Same happened when I tried activating plugin “Insert HTML Snippet” But I don’t need this plugin as theme has built in shortcodes for HTLM code…
Any Solutions or suggestions on what can be causing this problem?
Thanks
Hey,
It seems the plugins might be loading a version of jquery UI stylesheets that are conflict – could you please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can take a look at what’s going on

Hello how do I get the header to stay a little bit transparent when scrolling and to get a texture pattern overlay like this site? http://www.gearylsf.com/
Thank you.
Hey,
There’s an option to parallax inside of your slider element – once you turn that on you’ll get the fade effect. However the texture overlay was custom css that person wrote
Cheers
Hey Nectar, thank you for the support. Couple questions, how do we get the inherit row feature to only feature on a single page?
Also in a portfolio template style how do we put more info or change the info on the element when you hover a portfolio page? With the meta hover overlay option it gives the date of the post but how can we change this info to something different or at least disable it?
Hey!
1. This would require some modding to the init.js file as of now
2. In your project configuration box when editing a project there’s an input for “Project Excerpt”
Cheers

Hey TPDLondonLTD,

function my_child_theme_setup() {
load_child_theme_textdomain( 'wpexplorer', get_stylesheet_directory() . '/languages' );
}
add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'my_child_theme_setup', 1 );
I supose “wpexplorer” isn`t correct $domain for silent. I try few option but nothing works. Any chance to sorted this small issue for me ? Thank you very much for any help
Hey Naymapl,
instead of wpexplorer use this:
load_child_theme_textdomain( NECTAR_THEME_NAME, get_stylesheet_directory() . '/languages' );
Cheers
