[Plugin: Portfolio] Templates field missing

Hello,

This field appears if you have custom templates in your theme only (in your case it seems that you don’t have).
Please check that you have next templates from the ‘template’ folder (our Portfolio plugin folder) in your theme folder:

‘portfolio-post.php’ and ‘portfolio.php’

Regards,
Oksana

I am having the same challenge with templates not showing up. I checked and the .php files are in my theme directory. Also, I set up categories and they are not showing up either. Disappointed – I really wanted to use this plug-in. Can you advise?

Please could you describe what do you mean:

‘same challenge with templates not showing up?’

Whcih exactly?

I set up categories and they are not showing up either

Portfolio doesn’t support categories, it’s supporting the technologies and executors only.

Regards,
Oksana

I don’t think the instructions are clear for this plug-in. I added a portfolio page in the portfolio section. No template there. I added a new page and used the portfolio template in the page with a featured image as per instructions. I have no idea how to get the images below the main featured image or fill out the “read more” page.

In addition, all my head styles and menu items have changed colors and fonts.

If anyone has used this plug-in, I’d really like to know how it works.

Please follow the instructions below:

1) = I cannot view my Portfolio page =

1. First of all, you need to create your first Portfolio page and choose ‘Portfolio Template’ from a list of available templates (which will be used for displaying of our portfolio).
2. If you cannot find ‘Portfolio Template’ in a list of available templates, then just copy it from ‘/wp-content/plugins/portfolio/template/’ directory to your templates directory.

2) You got the visual errors which are related to your theme. Our free services are not applied to the layout stylizing of custom WordPress themes. All standard WordPress themes support our plugins. If you’ll install standard theme 2010 or 2011 then everything will be displayed correctly. We are not responsible for differencies between custom and standard themes. We understand that not every user can edit styles and add necessary changes to the plugin template manually, and that is why we are offering our service in order to help you and adjust plugin for your current WordPress theme. If you have programming skills then you will cope with this modification easily.

Best regards,
Oksana

First of all, I’m using an up-to-date theme. The visual errors are related to your code overriding my style sheet which I have fixed myself.

I did get the template added in the pages. My real question is how does this template reflect the html example you have on your website. I noticed it is not using the wordpress plugin.

I asked how to create the same effect you created on your website with multiple projects and how to get the thumbnail images in the template.
