You were right – the ACP_URL and ACP_Version variables needed to be changed. Now it works great.

For learnings sake, why are the variables defined as below? You could either point me to some guide that describes it in detail, otherwise a brief description about why each part is written as it is. (for instance why 1.1.1? why ACP?
define( ‘ACP_URL’, plugin_dir_url( __FILE__ ) );
define( ‘ACP_Version’, ‘1.1.1’ );

thanks again!

i see your point – and it resolved my issue. thanks for all your help.

Ok, thanks for the tips. Unfortunately I haven’t had success yet. I still am trying to creat two different Portfolios – One called Portfolio and the other called Experiences

I tried 2 ways.

First, I tried adding a second class called ‘/class-experience.php’ and then adapting ‘plugin.php’ to create two different custom post types: 1 for portfolio and another for experience. This never worked and after a few hours of guesswork, tried option 2.

Second option, I duplicated the entire plugin and replaced ‘portfolio’ with ‘experience’ everywhere. This worked great, except for 2 issues. 1 is minor: it seems only 1 dashboard image will show up, even after changing the image and making sure the image filename is adapted. This is minor. The Second issue is Major: The Features don’t show up for my second portfolio!

I was wondering if you might know off the top of your head, why the Features option does not show up? I realize this way is not elegant, but it will do the trick for me.

Thanks a lot

Thanks for the reply,

And for making the plugin, its great for a first time user like me.

Your tutorial was great for linking to pages – success!

I’d like to figure out how to create two different portfolios. 1 portfolio for Projects filtered by Sector (Energy, Transport, DIY, etc),and another for Travel Photos filtered by location (India, US, etc).

I found a plugin (webphysiology portfolio) that seems to incorporate what I am referring to, but it lacks the filtering abilities built in that arconix portfolio has.

I am almost wondering if the easiest thing might be to somehow create a copy of your plugin, that creates a custom post type called portfoliophoto, and only pulls from portfoliophoto. What do you think?

I realize that a more elegant solution would be to define another category (as in webphysiology) aside from ‘features’ that would label each project as ‘photo’ or ‘project’ and then be able to pull either in a page. But my guess is that would be more time-consuming.

If this makes sense, maybe you have a better idea?

Hi everyone,

Great-looking plugin.

I just downloaded this a few days ago and I was wondering if there has been any updates to a couple questions in this thread:

1. Linking an image to another page. (Or linking an image to a portfolio item) Where can I locate the blog post mentioned above?
2. Setting up seperate portfolios on seperate pages.

thanks
