I have a photographer who would like to upload many pics into different galleries, such as weddings, corporate, etc. And then have a “portfolio” page that shows them all in a sortable way. This seems possible from the theme, but we are kind of pulling our hair out trying to do it; it appears that when one shows a grid pulling different portfolio galleries, all it will show is the single featured image on that combined grid, not all the images. Which would mean that we’d have to put up each image as a separate post or portfolio item.
Can a page pull all of the images from other page galleries onto it? Or can images be uploaded and identified as belonging to certain categories without handling each one as a separate post or page? We want to be able to upload 20 Wedding pics to one portfolio page and ID the set as “weddings,” and 20 Corporate images to another page, and then, in addition to being able to show those pages individually, we’d like to be able to create a page that combines them all and offers a sort of them.
Is this possible? Or do we have to upload 20 individual wedding images as featured images in 20 individual portfolio “items”? Because in truth we are talking about hundreds of images here and to not be able to produce sortable galleries of images more easily than that seems so weird that I believe I must just be missing something. Documentation doesn’t get into any of this at all…so we’re stuck.
Hi kaylesimon!
It sounds like you’ll want to use the portfolio AJAX feature for this, http://kriesi.at/themes/enfold/portfolio/portfolio-ajax/. You can upload more images to each portfolio post and have the preview display a slideshow or gallery of the preview images.
Best regards,
ElliottHi Elliot,
Thank you, but that isn’t what I’d like to be able to do. Perhaps it would help if I gave a specific example:If I create a portfolio category called “weddings” with the subcategories, “wedding portraits,” “wedding moments,” “engagements”, I’d like to be able to show ALL the images on one page, with sortability by their subcategories.
Without having to upload every single photo separately and use it as a featured pic.
right now, all I can accomplish is to create a portfolio item with a set of images, define it as “wedding portraits,” add a featured image, etc. And then show a page with the thumbnail for each portfolio category, upon which they can click to see JUST the images from that category. Via ajax or other means. Yes, with ajax the other categories are still at the bottom of the page, but the IMAGES from that category are not showing.
My only workaround is to take each individual image and add it as a single portfolio item. There is no way to pull various sets of of images from a portfolio category onto a combined page.
Hi!
Currently the only feature similar to that is the AJAX portfolio. You can create a feature request here, https://kriesi.at/support/enfold-feature-requests/, and if it gets enough interest we may see something get added in a future update.
Best regards,
Elliott
