Our Work-section, additional options

Dear Joren,

Display the project title on the hover state.

I’m afraid it isn’t supported by the theme nor Sydney Portfolio plugin’s core at the moment. You might still have chance to achieve it by customizing the portfolio loop item content which is defined in the main file of Sydney Portfolio plugin.

1. Open “sydney-portfolio” plugin folder > sydney-portfolio.php file

2. Find this code block

3. Replace it with this one

4. Apply the following CSS code through the Simple Custom CSS plugin

.project-item a{
	position: relative;
	width: 100%;
	height: 100%;
	text-align: center;
}

.portfolio-title{
	display: none;
	position: absolute;
	top: 0;
	left: 0;
	width: 100%;
	text-align: center;
	color: #fff;
	z-index: 21;
}

.roll-project .project-item:hover .portfolio-title{
	display: inline-block;
}

As you are editing the main plugin’s file, you should take it at your own risk. The change you have made will be overridden once the plugin gets updated in the future.

… and I would like to make the ‘category-buttons’ above a bit nice.

What do you mean by “a bit nice” here?

Try to style it using the following CSS selector:

.project-filter li {
   /* Style declaration goes here */
}

I hope this reply helps.

Kharis

Dear Kharis,

Thanks a lot for you reply! It worked!

But I did decide to switch to an ‘easier’ theme, after trying to change some things in the theme. I feel like I am too inexperienced to edit the Sydney-theme, while I am also not happy enough with the way the theme looks now.

Once again thanks,
Joren

P.s. issue is resolved though, I forgot to mark the button!
