Hello! How can I put the navigation menu under the nectar slider? Thanks!

Hey – as of now this would take some custom development unfortunately

Cheers

No worries, I’m always happy to help people. :)

great thank you so much :) good luck with your story sounds harrowing!

Hi yaelslasky,

I’m also waiting for a reply as well. Meanwhile, I might help you out with your questions.

I’m not the admin but I can respond to your questions. I bought this theme and I have been using it for more than 1 year now.

1. Can i display multiple images, meaning if i will click on an image in the portfolio can i have like 5 images appear?

A. Yes, you can.

2. Can i have a full screen video as the homepage

A. Yes you can use Fullwidth to display your video on homepage.

Thanks for helping out yaelslasky, senimation :)

what is there usual time for responding does anyone know i have been waiting 5 hours and no response?

Hey yaelslasky, i’ll be with you as soon as I can :)

I’m desperately seeking for help. I updated the latest version of Salient and it completely messed up my entire website. What can I do to save this? I don’t have any backup. pls help…

http://www.senimation.com/

HELP! pls….. :(

Some pages are working but mostly mp4 and pictures are not displaying. Why?

Especially the Home page, Gallery page and Works page are completely messed up and not displaying at all.

Hi ThemeNectar, I’ve been trying to solve this issue for many hours. The whole website went down for a while and I contacted the host server to locate the issue. It’s finally back in business but there are some bugs in the new theme. The home page works fine during the first visit but when I click on other pages then back to home page. All the mp4 videos are not showing. This has been bothering me. Please reply. Thanks.

Hey senimation,

I’m glad you got most of it working again – please try changing your transition method from AJAX to the standard option in your Salient options panel in the page transitions tab

Cheers

HELP!

Hi

Was hoping you could help with two questions.

1. I am trying to add an address to the Top header bar as i currently have the social media links in the top left, is this possible?

2. Contact form 7: is there a way to make the field name white? as the form is on a black background and the text is grey so doesnt stand out as i would like?

Thanks

Hey,

1. You’d have to add the address as a custom menu item in the appearances > menu section of your admin panel

2. Yes, it would require css though – if you could supply a page URL i’d be glad to help though :)

Cheers

Hi There!

I am looking very seriously at buying this theme i have 2 pre sales question for you.

1. Can i display multiple images, meaning if i will click on an image in the portfolio can i have like 5 images appear?

2. Can i have a full screen video as the homepage

Please be in touch asap as i need to buy a theme really soon!

Thanks!

Hey yaelslasky,

1. You could have as many images as you need to appear on the single project page but the lightbox (if used) will only show the featured image for the project clicked

2. The Nectar Sliders allows you to use a video background in any instance which could indeed use the fullscreen option

Cheers

i dont really get what you mean is there any way i could speak to you as it will be easier to explain it

Talking through here, emails or the support system https://themenectar.ticksy.com are the only ways currently – please see my response to your other comment in regards :)

Hello! Is there a way to trigger mobile menu sooner? I have 8 menu items and when resizing browser window those goes to two rows before mobile menu kicks in.

So I would like to adjust mobile menu appear on bigger screen size 1000px – 1290px.

Thanks!

Hey,

it would be a lot easier to shrink the menu font sizing to stop that from happening in that screen size than to adjust the mobile trigger. Could you kindly share your URL in regards so I can assist?

Cheers

Hello,

I need help with translating the theme.

I used the .po files and edit them with poedit to get 2 new files es_ES.mo and es_ES.po then I add them to the themes lang directory. I changed my wordpress settings language to Español and I guessed that was it but they dont seem to be working.

(on the wp-config file I cant change the define (‘WPLANG’, es_ES’) since it doesnt exist, and if I try adding it, my site crashes. )

What i wanted to change is the search text “start typing” and search results text and also portfolio view larger and more info.

I also tried adding them to the child theme I created so when a new update is availabe it wont get erased, but no luck, it doesnt work.

Any ideas on whats wrong?

I have it working now, apparently my file wasnt saved correctly. I saved them to the salient lang folder. Will it work if i save it to my child theme lang folder?

Im afraid if I move somethimg it wont work again jaja.

Hey – add this into the child theme functions.php file to have it load from there :)

add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'my_child_theme_setup' );
function my_child_theme_setup() {
    load_child_theme_textdomain( NECTAR_THEME_NAME, get_stylesheet_directory() . '/lang' );
}

Cheers

Hey – unfortunately I haven’t personally tested that plugin yet however if you encounter any issues please let me know :)

Cheers

Hello, how can I change the link color on a dark row?

Would like it to be white, not accent color.

This is a test, the link I refer appears at half http://www.anizeen.com/new/?p=1680

I tried adding a custom CSS to it, but doesn’t seem to apply.

Thanks

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

body a.whiteurl {
  color: #fff!important;
}

Cheers

Thanks! That worked :D

Glad to hear :)

Nectar,

There is a dilemma with the template. Please look at my site in the mobile version dennisjewelry.com. Right now my clients loves the site but does not like the “home page” of the mobile version because of the mouse based parallax skewing everything out of order. What should I do? The rest of the site mobile is fine except for the navigation logo being out of place but what should I do with the home page for the mobile version. I tried dudamobile but its so much extra work since we already have most of the site done and it doesnt look that much better. Please help.

Hey lnbbroductions,

because you’re using the mouse parallax in an implementation that assumes blank column spacing on desktop (which doesn’t) naturally occur on mobile are you trying to create that same spacing for the images in mobile or are you just looking to remove the mouse parallax when on mobile?

Cheers

Thank you Nectar, its really whatever you think that could make it look better for the mobile device. I am not sure what I could do. I understand the mobile devices are not yet compatible with the mouse based parallax or optimized for it, but the rest of the site looks fine on the mobile version, its just the home page since we utilize that mouse based feature. I could take it off but last time it didn’t look nearly as good with the coding that I used. If I could somehow just replace the home page or re direct it to another home page with simple images and a slider then it would be totally fine. I am not really sure what to do Nectar. Thank you

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

@media only screen and (max-width: 690px) {
.nectar-parallax-scene {
  display:none!important;
}
}

then you could add specific classes onto your rows in the page builder like “discover-the-process” and add this into the custom css box to apply a mobile specific BG

@media only screen and (max-width: 690px) {
  .discover-the-process {
     background-image: url('your-img.jpg');
  }
}

Hello

Really interested in purchasing.. so here comes the presale questions:

1- Is the theme compatible with a- Gravity forms? (a must for me) b- Ultimate addons for visual composer c- Essential Grid (a must for me since i have tons of galleries) d- Templatera (for saving vc layouts)

2- On the blogs page – Can i filter what categories will show? I have many categories and would like on 4-5 out of 12 to show on the blogs page… can i make this happen? I would also like to know if there is a sort filter for the blog, where i for instance can sort by date… or such….. and are breadcrumbs customizable? like can i control what shows in the breadcrumbs or do you even have breadcrumbs?... In the meta.. can i hide the authors?

3- Does the theme come with any sort of galleries?

4- What custom post types does the theme have? If i add my own custom post types… will i be able to link the theme options to them?

5- Is there any chance you could show me a screenshot of the custom vc modules the theme adds?

6- Is there a way to make the scroll to top button appear on mobile too?

Sorry for the questions, its a beautiful theme, i am really looking forward transferring our huge website to it, but would like to be sure before i get my clients into this mess…

Hey,

1. it’s compatible with gravity forms, ultimate addons and templatera but I’ve never tested with essential grid

2. You can select what categories will display in a blog element but there’s no filter feature such as the portfolio available yet for the blog

3. The portfolio styles seen in the theme can be used in a Visual Composer gallery element (all but the masonry functionality)

4. The portfolio and slider elements have their own post types

5. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N4mt0lOJ888

6. That would require some modding to the theme files as of now

Cheers

Hi I’m interested in purchasing, but how easy (or hard) is it to change the css of the form fields? I like more of a flat look. Is it simply a matter of changing it in the style.css file?

Hey – yes, you could also just add custom css into the theme options panel in regards. I could help with this if needed too

Cheers

Hey again!

Another quick question, when someone goes to upload a blog post, under “gallery” in “format”, the option:

Gallery Slider Would you like to turn your gallery into a slider?

There is a box to tick, can I make this box automatically tick, instead of manual tick?

Thanks!

Hey again! Open the nectar/meta/post-meta.php file and edit this section:

array(
                            'name' =>  __('Gallery Slider', NECTAR_THEME_NAME),
                            'desc' => __('Would you like to turn your gallery into a slider?', NECTAR_THEME_NAME),
                            'id' => '_nectar_gallery_slider',
                            'type' => 'checkbox',
                            'std' => 1
                        )
and change the
        'std' => 1
to
        'std' => 'on'
Cheers

Thank you very much!

You’re welcome :)

How do you make a full screen slider using either the home slider or nectar slider without having the images blur or stretch. I can find a resolution which I can upload and get the crisp image exactly as I want it to be.

Cheers

Byron

Hey Byron, since the fullscreen slider will adjust the width/height to fit the users screen size it’s impossible for the image to not resize as well. Could you kindly share your URL in regards so I can take a closer look?

At the moment I’ve got a nectar slider that’s set to full width in the visual composer, this is the only way I’ve been able to stop it from stretching the images. The problem now is that when the slider resizes it almost becomes invisible even when I’ve set the flexible height. I don’t think flexible width works however when the full width is set in visual composer.

http://192.185.78.143/~catseye/

Hey again – I’m currently seeing the flexible height option turned off, could you kindly activate it and allow me to check on it for you so I can see what’s going on better?

Cheers

Hello, can I mix Masonry Style on my site?

I want to use Meta Overlaid on my homepage and Classic on my category pages. Where do I set this up?

Thanks

I’ve noted the idea for the wishlist :)

Awesome! :D

OK so I fiddled around with your code somewhat and I solved why the radius value wasn’t changing. All I did was change the “none” to a value of 0.

At this point I just need to customize the color for the background of the percentage bars, change the font to Lovelo, and change the sort portfolio text color, hover state and size as well.

Thank you again.

Hey – please see my previous response in regards :)

Cheers
