Basically, I like the avia portfolio grid’s functionality and it would work ideally for my current requirements. However, the problem on the client end seems to simply be a matter of vocabulary. I’m going to have ‘Products’ and ‘Procedures’, which could easily be accommodated by categories, but there’s a hangup about using ‘Portfolio’ for ‘Products’.
Options:
How can I implement a portfolio grid drawing from a custom type?
Alternately, would simply renaming the labels and slugs be a workable option? (I’m looking at register-portfolio.php or similar)
Yes, I’ve seen where it would work renaming labels (Though not completely sure how to enable that in a child theme off the top of my head).
Secondary issue we discovered was the inability to use portfolio category slugs. There’s the ‘products’ page with a grid pulling from portfolio items with the ‘product’ category and likewise for ‘procedures’.
Ideally, the urls would be /products/product and /procedures/procedure
Otherwise, it’s looking like the whole thing will have to be done in a custom wp loop drawing from custom content types (Which I think loses a ton of friendly back-end functionality for the client.)
Hi!
Thank you for using the theme!
If you want to create a new post type, duplicate the includes > admin > register-portfolio.php file. Rename it to something else, for example register-life.php. Replace it with this code: http://pastebin.com/ZBpzgbSe
Add this on functions.php:
require_once( 'includes/admin/register-life.php' ); // register custom post types for life entriesThis will register the custom post type life. You can now select the Life Entries when you’re using the Blog Posts or Fullwidth Masonry elements. Replace “life” with different custom post type name.
Cheers!
