My client requires functionality that revolution slider provides... Can you point me in the right direction to swap out Nectar Slider for Revolution within Salient? ...Which templates / code do I have to modify after installing the plugin?
also, I came across a post here on the support forum that mentions a revolution slider sizing issue with Salient - one that you apparently addressed in a private post. (http://themenectar.ticksy.com/ticket/55047/search/...
Could you clue me in on that sizing issue solution?
The revolution slider works alright with Salient . You simply have to use a normal row and place the shortcode in a text box page element. Make the slider fullwidth or fullscreen via its settings page.
Also do I have to insert the rev slider in the actual home page template code in order to have the rev slider to appear under the transparent header like the nectar slider used to?
Please update to Salient Theme Version 4.8.1 .That should fix it.
Please take a backup of your theme folder before you update so that if there are any changes made to the theme files they are not lost.
You can update your theme by downloading a fresh copy from ThemeForest, deleting the current version you have on your server and uploading the new.
It's recommended that you use FTP, but this also can be done with the WP dashboard if you prefer. The reason FTP is superior for this is because the theme won't have to be deactivated during the process so you won't have to reassign your widgets. If you're
interested in keeping up to date with the latest changes and fixes, please refer to the changelog: http://themenectar.com/changelogs/salient.html
Also, remember to clear your browser cache after each update if you notice anything off. Old theme files can persist in your local cache and make you think something's wrong.

Been getting a left margin of about 30px on Rev Slider. Been through all the settings. What am I missing?
Thanx for your support!
Also do I have to insert the rev slider in the actual home page template code in order to have the rev slider to appear under the transparent header like the nectar slider used to?
Hey Mark!
Can you please provide your site url and wp-admin login details so we can sort this for you.
Thanks

Ok thanx, I updated the theme files via FTP and I cleared my cache, but what is that supposed to fix?
The 4.0 Update issue I'm having, or the 30px left margin on the Rev Slider Issue?
- 4.0 Update is still hanging / stalling for me,
- and I still have the left margin issue.
Thanx for your help.
Hey!
Try adding in this, Add this into the Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel :
.rev_slider_wrapper ul { margin-left: 0px !important; }
Thanks
