Portfolio featured image issue

Hello,

Please don’t add in the entry content the same image which is set as a featued image.

I haven’t, which is why it seems so strange. If I add in an image in the content, it shows up 3 times. You think this could be a setting I’ve missed?

Could you send an access data to your installation to our developer? We cannot reproduce this issue. Our developer e-mail is: dziudek[at]gavick[dot]com

Hi GavickPro,

I also have a question in regards to the featured image from each project. I think the size is really big and they all appear quite blurry.

Can that be adjusted from the WordPress settings or do I need to use the Css editing?

Thanks,

Were you able to find a solution to the feature image also being posted at the top of your post? I am having the same issue.

@imzorubaite, @astima – the issue is caused by fact that these posts are generated by a 3rd party plugin “Freefolio”, which duplicates the featured automatically – I suggest to contact the developer of the plugin and suggest him that this plugin should have an option to not display the project image when the featured images are supported by the user theme.

@martabeatris83 – please add in your CSS:

.entry-header > img {
width: auto;
margin: 0 auto;
display: block;
}

We will add in the next release an option to disable scaling the images to 100%.

Thank you very much for the support GavickPro, really appreciate it.
It worked:)

Thank you! This was the issue. That’s a shame the two aren’t working together.

Gavick Pro,

I added your suggestion to my CSS in order to decrease the size of the featured image on each post and it worked for the older posts.
However, I am encountering the same problem again as I starter adding new posts. The size of the featured image is quite big.

I am confused with solving this one.

@martabeatris83 – the code is 100% ok, but your issue is caused by fact that your images are too big i.e. here: https://somethingwedesign.com/tea-packaging/ you are using an image with width 1200px so it is even downscaled.

Got it. Thanks again for helping out.

Hi Gavick Pro

I am just setting up my blog with your lovely theme. My purpose is actually not really blogging, but presenting cv, portfolio and creative projects.

I will use the blog-function for displaying both parts of my portfolio and then creative projects. But I am also interested in having a page called portfolio where all the posts displaying stuff I have made while working freelance will be shown.

It should work a bit like on this website under work – https://somethingwedesign.com/
but I do not know how to get the portfolio page to work like the blogpage, with the images side by side as links to a page displaying the full content.

How do I set this up?

Hopefully you understand my question?

Best Kat

@katnyholm – did you tried to use as a portfolio a category page? There is the only solution which we can provide without core changes in the theme.

Hi again

So when you wrote with your idea, I thought OF COURSE – that is how to do it. I made a portfolio page with no content and then I made three different categories called Graphic Design, Web design and Photo. My thoughts was that they would then appear as a drop down under portfolio – just as seen on https://somethingwedesign.com/ BUT that does not happen. So I haven’t quite fixed my problem yet!

The actual link called portfolio I made as a page, because I want it to figure in the menu – it doesn’t need to have any info on it, because when people see the drop down options they will click on one of those and then see the different parts of the portfolio which they are interested in…

Do you have any suggestion as to have the drop down and when clicking Graphic design all post categorised as Graphis design, will show in the same manner as on the frontpage, the blog post page?

Best,
Katrine

Please try to create 4 menu items:

1) On the first level called “Portfolio” as an external link and set it to “#” – then it will be unclickable

2) 3 menu items as a child menu items of Portfolio which will be a category menu items – they should appear as a frontpage listing
