Thanks! I *almost* had it... my ignorance of how to code that PHP 'switch' was my downfall. I also edited functions.php to add my new image size. Thank you so much for the clear instructions! :) Devin on "create custom column sizes" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/create-custom-column-sizes#post-91958 Thu, 17 Jan 2013 01:06:48 +0000 Devin 91958@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Hey chembro303, The grid is a 12 column grid so six would be possible in this instance. Open includes>admin>register-admin-options.php and look for: <pre><code>array( "slug" => "portfolio", "name" => "Portfolio Columns", "desc" => "How many columns should be displayed?", "id" => "portfolio_columns", "type" => "select", "std" => "4", "subtype" => array('1'=>'1','2'=>'2','3'=>'3','4'=>'4')),</code></pre> add a 6 option to that with: <pre><code>array( "slug" => "portfolio", "name" => "Portfolio Columns", "desc" => "How many columns should be displayed?", "id" => "portfolio_columns", "type" => "select", "std" => "4", "subtype" => array('1'=>'1','2'=>'2','3'=>'3','4'=>'4','6'=>'6')),</code></pre> Then in includes>loop-portfolio.php look for: <pre><code>switch($avia_config['portfolio_columns']) { case 1: $grid = 'grid12'; $image_size = 'featured'; break; case 2: $grid = 'grid6'; $image_size = 'portfolio2'; break; case 3: $grid = 'grid4'; $image_size = 'portfolio3'; break; case 4: $grid = 'grid3'; $image_size = 'portfolio'; $showcaption = false; break; }</code></pre> add an option for the 6 option: <pre><code>switch($avia_config['portfolio_columns']) { case 1: $grid = 'grid12'; $image_size = 'featured'; break; case 2: $grid = 'grid6'; $image_size = 'portfolio2'; break; case 3: $grid = 'grid4'; $image_size = 'portfolio3'; break; case 4: $grid = 'grid3'; $image_size = 'portfolio'; $showcaption = false; break; case 6: $grid = 'grid2'; $image_size = 'portfolio'; $showcaption = false; break; }</code></pre> Regards, Devin chembro303 on "create custom column sizes" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/create-custom-column-sizes#post-91837 Wed, 16 Jan 2013 11:02:58 +0000 chembro303 91837@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ I love this theme (Velvet) - thanks. One thing I want to do is have a portfolio page with rows of 6 columns (head shots of people) in addition to the normal options (1,2,3,4). I tried to modify a few of the underpinnings of the theme but I just couldn't get it to work. While full instructions would be much appreciated :) at a minimum can you point me to the files I would need to modify and the basic gist of what I need to do in order to add a "6" option in the portfolio columns configuration selector that will display 6 portfolio items across using a new custom image size (approx. 130x170 in this case...)? I was able to add the "6" item as a new option in the select box but it didn't seem to 'do' anything when I select it. I must be missing something. Thank you!!!
