Portfolio function needs additional plugin to function

Revised on 2/25/16

Theme author provided instructions on how to resolve my issue (installing Meta Box plugin) and now everything works perfectly. Changing my review to 4 stars!

Thanks for the help!

Downloaded this theme specifically for the beautiful way it displays portfolio items. I thought it would be perfect for my new website to display my client work.

Unfortunately, there is no way to change out the images used in the demo site, or add photos to a new portfolio entry aside from a single featured image.

I went to the support page to find some help, figuring I was missing a step. Turns out it is a flaw in the theme…a couple of other users have the same exact problem and have not found a solution. The original forum post requesting help is a month old, and there has been no response from the theme author on this issue.

I am now going to have to ditch this theme and find another one instead, unless the theme author can resolve this issue.

It is a shame since this theme is so beautiful.
