Hi I just want to know that why there is no comment form under the standard blog with no sidebar posts? Im designing my own home page and I added the blog section via visual composer and “the standard blog with no sidebar” option, but there is no comment box under the post ( which shows the comments people did and making a new comment box… Thank u…

And just a point that I want to add, my posts are not excerpt I wanted to show the full post, so I need this comment box under the post…

Hey,

by default comment forms will only appear on the single post page for each post – could you please share your URL in regards so I can take a look?

Cheers

Pls consider to include

text-shadow: 0px 0px 20px black

Or whatever value you want (probably a form to customize this value will be great) into the HEADING css attributes

This because “heading” text on complex picture is hard to be read both in light and dark theme. The shadow will easily pop out from picture the title!

Awesome theme anyway!

Thanks! :-)

Hey,

Thanks for the request :)

Cheers

HI,

This theme support new Wordpress 4.2?

Regards

Hey kaixer,

there’s no known issues with it :)

Cheers

It would have been nice if you guys created an option to change the color of the background of the site, which properly affects all features including toggles, tabs, etc.

I’m spending a fortune on having to acquire a web developer to create all this CSS that I have to pay him more each time you modify CSS code on the theme.

Your competitor Bridge has told me they have an option to switch the background color by just clicking a button in the backend of the theme. You’ve been around longer. I’ve asked about this before but no interest by your company to do this. Avada also has options to assign colors to different sections of the site.

So instead I’m paying “a lot” of money slamming more expensive CSS code in the CSS section.

When are you guys stepping up to the game like these other theme developers and offering such a feature?

Also, I have to spend a lot of money to have the theme optimized as it’s a massive multi-purpose theme jammed with a lot of extras not needed.

Hey,

the BG color can be changed globally with this line of css if you don’t want to control it via VC rows:
.container-wrap, .project-title { background-color: #000!important; }

Are you referring to other css needed for different elements as well in regards?

Cheers

I’m referring to a global color change which also properly affects toggles, tabs and other many features. I hired on my web developer to add tons of code to make all of this happen yet at the moment, I still don’t have the toggle version where on a black site the toggle background shows black so that the white text can show up.

If you can share a page URL in regards I’d be glad to assist :)

I want to add a widget area for a sidebar into a Visual Composer template, how do I do that with Salient? :/

Can’t figure it out so far, thanks!

Hey,

there’s a widgetised sidebar element inside of the Salient VC – you’d have to place that into a column within the page builder

Cheers

Oh, indeed… I just found it, thanks!

Media Insert Button Broken: selects media but does nothing when Insert is selected…

Hey, if you’ve already tried seeing if any plugins in your setup are causing this – please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can take a look at what’s going on :) themenectar.ticksy.com

ok opening now…

Thank you

Hi I like this theme. Please let me know can we make this theme as a paid and free coupons website.

Please advise.

Hey,

you’d need to use a plugin to handle that functionality since by default there’s no functionality built in for that (woocommerce might have an extension for something similar)

Cheers

How do I remove the “Our News, Fresh out the Oven” header that shows up on pages like this: https://ezibota.com/author/wasiu-lawal.

Hey!

When editing the page there’s a page header settings metabox at the bottom – you can alter all the data for it there :)

Cheers

Hello, there is no option to edit the page. The issue does not arise with regular independent, customizable pages, it arises on the landing pages in which you can find all the posts attributed to a particular author or category. The “Fresh out the Oven” header is a default setting that I can not figure out how to get rid of. I am surprised more people haven’t brought it to your attention or perhaps they have and I am just not explaining the issue well enough.

Sorry I didn’t realize it was an archive page – archive pages in the blog will inherit the header settings from the page you’ve defined as your posts page. Edit that page and remove the header to clear it :)

The latest update completely breaks my site. I’m at a loss , what with ThemeForest urging me to update my themes and plugins. I can’t even find the older version of Salient that used to work and my site remains broken

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!

Any updates to become compatible with “Squarespace”? I am using the “Marquee” template and though it has parallax scrolling, I would like to integrate video as well. Any idea how to do so on their platform with Nectar?

Hey – Salient is only a WP theme, if you’re referring to getting a port to squarespace unfortunately there are no plans for that as of now.

One of my clients was using Salient and after doing some work for them, I liked it and have suggested it to many other clients over the past several months. For several reasons I will no longer be suggesting it to my clients. The one that annoys me most often and is really annoying me today is that you have placed ”!important” in your css for practically EVERYTHING and we always have a hard time overriding it. SUPER ANNOYING.

By the way I would say that the second most annoying thing is that there are less design settings than most themes have. One example, “Accent Color” is not a good way to offer color options (4). Anyone who’s used Avada (and spoiled) and then Salient probably feels the same – Salient has far too few settings.

Hey blackhorsemedia, i’m sorry to hear that.

1. All the styles which do use !important can still be overridden if the selector is written to be more specific, if you need any assistance please let me know.

2. Thanks for your feedback :)

Cheers

Hello,

Does this theme support Schema and Structured Data from Google.

Best

Rohit

Hey Rohit,

this would require the use of a plugin as of now

Cheers

Hello Nectar,

Can you please advise as to which line of code to remove to remove the quotations (” “) from around the text in the rotating Testimonial feature?

Thank you,

Hey CrossLeaf,

please see the file nectar/nectar-vc-addons/vc_templates/testimonial.php

Cheers

Thank you Nec.

You’re welcome :)

Hi, Does the theme support <!-nextpage->?? I’m showing a client how their site could look using your theme but they have pages that are split using this code and no page links are showing up at the bottom! Thanks

Hey!

Add this into the page.php after the_content

<?php wp_link_pages(); ?>

Cheers

Perfect, thanks very much!

You’re welcome :)

Weird bug on this latest update. For some reason every time I try to work on a particular page it takes about 20 seconds or so for VC to populate which is highly annoying. The page pops up the first 20 seconds with some jargon that says.

PreviewUpdate Welcome to Blank Page, You Have No Content Yet!

Add Some Content or Use Predefined Layouts… Add element Add text block

Anyone else having this issue?

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/

Cheers

Hey Phectar quick question. . .

How do I completely remove any kind of logo in the top left? It seems to just default to some text with a bounding box when I removed the image and I’d rather nothing there at all.

Hey CSMurphy,

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

header#top #logo {
  display: none!important;
}

Cheers

Thanks so much sir!

You’re welcome :)

Hi again. I would like to add the “related posts” function in my blog and I would like to know if this function is in your theme and how I can activate it. I purchased your theme last august. Maybe it was not present in that version… Thank you

Silvia

Hey Silvia,

There’s a recent post element but unfortunately no related posts as of now

Cheers

Hi :) It’s a funny fact, but “next post” function on my blog leads to previous one. How come? :-O Could you please help me? Thank you

Silvia

Ok, I’ll try. Thank you :)

Now it works perfectly. Thank you

Glad to hear :)

Sorry guys, but your support is absolutely not satisfying.

6 days between every answer? Seriously? Since now 3 weeks we work on my ticket #408114 and still no solution in sight. This is not what I expected when I purchased your theme.

Worse: Since now 2 weeks I am waiting for an answer (better: a solution) for my second Ticket: #410339.

Meanwhile this is absolutely frustrating.

When can I expect to get a theme that works like promoted???

Hey kriegundliebe,

sorry for the delay – when ticksy updated to the latest version the ticket queue on our end changed and some older tickets were overlooked. I’m checking on those now

Cheers

Hey guys,

I’m french and I have a question, Home Slider and Nectar slider never appears on phone or computer of my clients. Is this normal ? Maybe I have to disable parallax ? I don’t know, on my computer it’s OK, I don’t understand why they can’t have images…

Hey,

Could you please lend the URL so I can take a look?

Cheers
