I'm not sure if this will work though... </p> <p> Regards,<br /> Peter </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/can-i-somehow-display-portfolio-category-aliases-in-the-setup-instead-of-name#post-86737 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 07:01:39 +0000 mgma 86737@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Yes... so I can have unique portfolios that each contain their own "Best Sellers" category... the way I'll tell them apart, and assign portfolio items to them in the back end, is seeing their slugs. Cause otherwise they'll all say "Best Sellers" and I won ;t be able to tell which is which.</p> <p>Brilliant? </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/can-i-somehow-display-portfolio-category-aliases-in-the-setup-instead-of-name#post-86699 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 05:30:47 +0000 Ismael 86699@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hey! </p> <p>I'm not sure how to do this but can I ask what advantages can you get from displaying the category aliases rather than the actual name?</p> <p>Regards,<br /> Ismael </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/can-i-somehow-display-portfolio-category-aliases-in-the-setup-instead-of-name#post-86689 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 04:54:07 +0000 mgma 86689@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Thanks. Not working though. This changed them on the front end. The opposite of what I'm trying to achieve. I want the regular names on the front end, but the slugs on the back end. Is this a different PHP file?</p> <p>Thanks again... </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/can-i-somehow-display-portfolio-category-aliases-in-the-setup-instead-of-name#post-86575 Wed, 05 Dec 2012 07:42:33 +0000 Dude 86575@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Open up includes/loop-portfolio.php and search for following line:</p> <pre><code>$output .= &quot;class=&#39;&quot;.$category-&gt;category_nicename.&quot;_sort_button&#39; &gt;&quot;.$category-&gt;cat_name.&quot;&lt;/a&gt;&quot;;</code></pre> <p>You can replace $category-&gt;cat_name with eg the slug or the category nicename - if you i.e. want to use the slug then replace it with: $category-&gt;slug . </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/can-i-somehow-display-portfolio-category-aliases-in-the-setup-instead-of-name#post-86561 Wed, 05 Dec 2012 04:22:53 +0000 mgma 86561@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>And BTW... Names AND slugs would do the trick as well... </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/can-i-somehow-display-portfolio-category-aliases-in-the-setup-instead-of-name#post-86560 Wed, 05 Dec 2012 04:18:52 +0000 mgma 86560@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>I am trying to setup multiple portfolios that contain the same <em>name</em> category (display when sorting... i.e "Best Sellers") but a separate "Best Sellers" category in each portfolio.</p> <p>SO... when choosing which categories to pull from in the theme settings while setting up portfolios... as well as assigning posts to portfolio categories (check boxes on the right when creating a post)... how can I get these to display the category <em>slugs</em> instead of the names... even though the names will show up when sorting these portfolios in the front end?</p> <p>Thanks... </p>
