Portfolio seems to be missing?

  • Hi, I’m brand new to WordPress, and I’m trying to help my son set up a website for his artwork. We’re trying to use Sketch expressly for the built-in portfolio feature, but the instructions on the theme information page don’t match up with my dashboard options. It seems like Sketch was made for WordPress.com, and we’re using www.remarpro.com. I’ve been through the documentation several times now, searched this forum, and have come up with nothing and am at my wit’s end. I can’t even say more about the problem because the portfolio and any way to edit or add to it are simply absent. I know it isn’t much to go on, but I’d really appreciate some help with this.

    Oh, and another weird thing is that the home page currently has a menu, but it doesn’t exist under the menus customisation section. However, if I add a page, it will appear in the seemingly non-existent-but-clearly-actually-existent menu. This isn’t the main issue, though, but any light that can be shed would still be useful.

    I also can’t seem to find a way to disable the sidebar. I’ve read several different ways to do this, they just don’t seem to be applicable to my dashboard.

    Now, it seems that a different theme (Crio) I tried in the meantime has supplanted my son’s actual content with its own generic content.

    Again, any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    I managed to figure out most of the issues here——apparently, a plugin called Jetpack is required, and that’s where I had to delve into the settings to enable the portfolio option. I didn’t see that mentioned anywhere in these instructions, but once I discovered Jetpack was the missing link, the rest of the instructions made sense and I was able to get the portfolio up and running.

    I was also able to purge the junk installed by the alternate theme that I tried and found my son’s content again.

    I could still use some help with the menu and sidebar, though. Thanks.
