    I want to use portfolio items to display the output from another plugin – in this case wp job manager. For example, I need to add a small table for text output, a link button and reduce the size of the image.

    To do this I understand that I need to be able to edit the portfolio template, or create a new one, to add the relevant fields and php to get the data. However, I can’t see a template for portfolio items. Can you tell me where it is? I assume I can add the customised version in the child theme?

    Thanks

    Hi brian7454!

    Thank you for using Enfold.

    You can find the template on config-templatebuilder > avia-shortcodes > portfolio.php. Unfortunately, you can’t modify the portfolio grid template in the child theme but you can use the existing filters to modify the content of the portfolio grid. Regarding the plugin, please contact the plugin author for more info.

    That seems a dodgy idea, editing parent files… tears are inevitable when you do that sort of thing.

    In truth, I’m very disappointed. I don’t want portfolio items that have immense images; I want to be able to specify how they are output – I need items that incorporate small images and a little content, content that can be displayed as I want. There is no information on how to do this anywhere, and it seems that the portfolio pages are very difficult to customise, which for someone with my knowledge means they cannot be customised. So, bog standard or nothing.

    I’ve been waiting a couple of days for a fix to the bug on portfolio pages so that I can have a closer look at them, but there’s no sense wasting time until the theme has been updated because I won’t know if what I’m looking at is being output correctly.

    I was also hoping to have something other than have a static listing of team members but it seems I need to create them as custom posts and display them as portfolio items….which don’t seem to be easy to modify. I thought this theme would allow me the flexibility to do what I need, but it doesn’t seem to be easily modified at all.

    Hi!

    You can do the following to overwrite portfolio.php with a version on your child theme:

    Hi!

    Did you try the advance layout builder to build or modify the portfolio items? I think the advance layout builder is enough to achieve anything you want.

    The most important thing for me to modify is not the individual portfolio items. It is the portfolio listing output, like on the 3-column portfolio display. That allows me to output only a title and text extract. The advanced builder doesn’t work on that, does it? Maybe it accepts bare html though, will have to look again.

    Hey!

    Are you referring to the Ajax Portfolio Preview? you can put HTML or theme shortcodes there (columns for example).

    Josue,
    No, that’s not what I meant – if you are talking about the portfolio single items. I mean the portfolio display, like a list of items. Anyway, I haven’t been able to do what I want, so I’ve kinda botched something else that is similar but not sortable.

    What I wanted was a portfolio item that was an image (about 30% wide, a block of text beside it and a set of divs with text below. So the portfolio items could be made to look like ‘Our team’ items that linked to single pages.
