Hey, just wondering why we are not using the H6 header for customization? Can you include the option to adjust the font via the Salient font menu in a future release?

Thanks!

Hey FromInfinity, I’ve noted your +1 for the feature – there’s no specific reason I excluded it from the typography options

It’s hard to be more !important than !important. Please consider refactoring styles – use the fact that CSS means Cascading – it’s very hard to code a child theme when so many things in CSS are declared as !important. Regards

Hey alekwisnia, thanks for the feedback :)

I tried editing the .PO file from the lang folder. But the translation is not showing in the front-end from the website. How and where should i place the new .PO file? What name should it get (salient-nl_NL of just nl_NL)?

I tried almost everything.

Hey,

you need to name it nl_NL.po and also ensure that you have your language code set to that in the wp-config.php file of your WP setup

Hey ThemeNectar, any ideas how to fix this issue with the mobile viewport?

Thanks!

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

Is it possible to change the slideout icon to a small image instead? thkanks

Hello Theme Nectar,

We have a problem with the Nectar Slider. On a Nexus 4 Android device, the swipe function to go to next/previous slide is not working: http://www.mediatics.com/desa/thegoldenwheels/meet-our-fleet/first-class/

Can you have a look on that?

Thanks! Sergio

Hey Sergio, could you kindly check if activating the desktop swipe option in your Nectar Slider element corrects that?

It’s working now, many thanks ThemeNectar!

Hi,

I am facing one issue when it comes to page header line height.

My headers are 50 characters long. They look perfect in desktop version and tab but when I see them on mobile, the line height reduces.

Sentences get too close, almost not legible.

This problem I am noticing only for the page header where I have not put any background image or colour. The colour background header has appropriate line height.

Can you help me with this?

Best, Prajakta

P.S. I am not a developer.

Hey! Could you kindly share a URL in regards so I can take a peek?

Hey there – when clicking on any of my toggles, the page is redirecting me to the top of the page. Is anyone else experiencing this? Is there a fix for it? Thanks folks.

I disabled the social plugins as well as tried disabling one page scroll. I even hired someone to give me custom JS solution and they still couldn’t fix this. I think it is a theme issue, as I am still seeing the issue.

Looks like it is the KissMetrics analytics plugin causing the problem. This is an extremely popular tool – how do we fix this issue?

Hey,

I haven’t tested with that plugin before but it seems that it’s just adding something to the toggle element which is messing up the event – there might be a way to bypass certain elements in your plugin, have you reached out to the developers in regards?

Cheers

Hello ThemeNectar

I’m customizing the “404” page of the Salient theme and I would like to introduce the Nectar Slider to this page.

The question is that I’ve been searching in the comments of Salient and I’ve actually found an answer where you explains how to do it introducing the following shortcode on 404.php file:

<?php echo do_shortcode('[nectar_slider_shortcode_here]');?>

Unfortunately, I don’t know why but it doesn’t work… If you have any other idea about how to introduce the Nectar Slider inside the “404 error” page I would be very grateful!

Many thanks!

Hey! That should still work but you’d need to open your functions.php file and change this:

//nectarSlider mediaElement 
    if(stripos( $post->post_content, '[nectar_slider') !== FALSE || stripos( $portfolio_extra_content, '[nectar_slider') !== FALSE
    || stripos($post->post_content, '[vc_gallery type="nectarslider_style"') !== FALSE || stripos( $portfolio_extra_content, '[vc_gallery type="nectarslider_style"') !== FALSE) {

        wp_enqueue_script('nectarSlider');    

    }
to this:
//nectarSlider mediaElement 
wp_enqueue_script('nectarSlider');        

Works like a charm :) Big thanks for your awesome support!

Hello! Love the theme. I have basic layout based on the About Us from the Salient demo. My issues is the seems to be a huuuuge gap of empty space of the bottom of the top column boxes. See here: http://e-logistics.us/evolutionlogistics/services/temperature-control-delivery/ Sometimes it happens to extend the top boxes and sometimes on reload it works perfect. Very strange.

Hey! Are you using the current version of the theme? If so please open a ticket in regards with your admin credentials so I can take a look at what’s going on :) themenectar.ticksy.com/

Hello, I want to create a Landing Page with no navbar or header. How to hide those?? are you gonna create a separate template for a landing page in next update??

Hello again,
I want to remove “About” word from Author Bio. I am using Original Skin. Instead of “About John Doe”, I want only “John Doe”.
I am just a Web Designer and not WordPress Developer :(

Hey!

Remove this from the single.php file:

_e('About', NECTAR_THEME_NAME);

Cheers

Hi my man,

Is it possible to override/set the transparent header on a per-page basis?

The way it works now (takes effect if Slider or Page Header is used) is not ideal because we use a basic text w/colored background page header on some pages and want the full transparent header (no page header used) couple with a full-screen slider on other pages. Right now it seems all or nothing. The basic text/color page header is all messed up looking if we enable transparent header.

So is there any way to enable/disable it per page?

Hey,

there’s checkboxes to disable or force the transparent header in every page in the page header settings box :)

Cheers

Ah, OK – the transparent header setting has to be ON for these options to appear. Now I see it. Thx!

Glad you found them :)

Hey Phil!

Just a quick question, inside my “New Post” page, I see there is two options in there,

- Nectar Shortcode - Post Header Settings

Can I remove these two please from view on that page? Also, in “VIDEO” under “FORMAT”, can I hide the following:

“Preview Image Image should be at least 680px wide. Click the “Upload” button to begin uploading your image, followed by “Select File” once you have made your selection. Only applies to self hosted videos.”

That’s all Phil!

Thanks again,

Gareth.

Hey!

Add this into the nectar/assets/css/nectar_meta.css file

.post-type-post #nectar-metabox-page-header, .post-type-post .nectar-shortcode-generator, #nectar-metabox-post-video tbody tr:nth-child(3) {
display: none!important;
}

Cheers

Hi,

I am currently using this theme. I have added the menu fix

.sf-menu ul { width: 25em!important; }

But when I add another link under a dropdown link it over laps the dropdown.

I tried

.sf-menu ul li ul { width: 25em!important; }

But it is still overlapping the menu. Is there anyway this can be fixed. Also I am looking to add a logo above the heading and text lines on the nectar slider.

Is there a good way to do this?

Thanks

Pete

Hey,

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

.sf-menu li li ul {
  left: 25em!important;
}

Cheers

Woocommerce checkout dropdowns are frozen. I’ve noticed other people have had this same issue. Is there a quick fix? Thank you.

If you update to a recent release this problem should be sorted :)

Ok, and that is 5.5.5?

1) How did I change the padding above the Pricing Table? There seems to be a lot of padding between my in-page CTA button and the pricing table. See http://arondale.com/brytech3/gsa-schedule-professional-services/

2) Whenever I try to format the text in the pricing table, either the formatting looks OK but with a lot of added padding, especially when using a carriage return or line break to space the text. How do I override this? http://arondale.com/brytech3/gsa-schedule-professional-services/

Hey,

1. Add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:
.pricing-table {
  padding-top: 20px!important;
}

2. The only spaces i’m seeing in your pricing tables as of now are coming from your class add .smalltext1 which has padding defined. Do you have any examples I could see that show the issue when using line breaks?

Cheers

Thank you for replying… but it did not work, unfortunately. If I change it to 800px it will push the table way down the page… so I know the class is correct. However, when I put 20 or even 0px (as I have it set now) the pricing table does not move further up the page. I tried on multiple browsers. Still no luck. Perhaps it is the element / component above the pricing table? I cannot get final payment from my client until he see’s I’ve resolved the spacing issue. Anything else you can suggest would be most appreciated!!!!

Hey! Change the snippet to this:

.pricing-table {
  margin-top: 20px!important;
}

HI ThemeNectar… would love to buy your theme and noticed your BLOG DEMO. Wanted to ask if I would be able to download the BLOG DEMO as is (minus the pictures) and start incorporating my information or is it not doable?

Hey, yes that entire dummy data structure is included with the theme for you to import :)

Nevermind ThemeNectar!

It was just an errant “box-” text on the Google Analytics dialog. Surely I tipped it there intending to write something on the CSS dialog and I left there by mistake.

Hey,

Glad to hear :)

Cheers

Hello ThemeNectar,

So far the theme has worked nice, but in some point a “box-” plain text appeared right on the body. Is visible on the foot of every page, and given it’s a text element right inside the body, I cannot hide it.

Could you check my URL and see what may be going on? http://www.mediatics.com/desa/thegoldenwheels/

Thank you! Sergio

Hey,

As of now I can’t seem to see it – could you kindly provide a screenshot I can take a look at you’re on your end?

Cheers

Hey again!

I managed to fix my permalinks issue but in the process reset the default Salient permalink post structure and can’t remember what it was. Do you mind letting me know?

Thanks!

Hey,

For the demo I’m just using / postname / – are you referring to that or something else?

Cheers

Yep that fixed it.

Thanks!

Glad to hear :)
