I am using Levitation and have been able to make some modification thanks to information I have found on this site. But I'm a graphic designer and not a developer. Is it possible to add text below the portfolio boxes? My site is http://www.amicodesign.com. I would like to be able to add a very short description of the project below the portfolio items.

Hey,
you can try to replace following code in template_portfolio.php
<?php echo '<a href="'.$portfolio_image.'" rel="lightbox[portfolio]"><img class="aligncenter" src="'.$portfolio_image_small.'" alt="" /></a>'; ?> </div><!--end box_small-->with:
<?php echo '<a href="'.$portfolio_image.'" rel="lightbox[portfolio]"><img class="aligncenter" src="'.$portfolio_image_small.'" alt="" /></a>'; the_content('',FALSE,''); ?> </div><!--end box_small-->If you want a read more button just use the_content(); instead of the_content('',FALSE,'');

Thanks again for your help. I found the file, but now get this when I add the content. What am I doing wrong?? Am I supposed to turn the text into another image to upload or can I type what I need to add in the code you sent?
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/content/40/5480140/html/betasite/wp-content/themes/themeforest_levitation-wordpress-business-portfolio-4-in-1_60299/levitation/template_portfolio.php on line 45
Here is the code I inserted:
<?php echo '<a href="'.$portfolio_image.'" rel="lightbox[portfolio]"><img src="'.$portfolio_image_small.'" alt="" /></a>'; the_content('',A shopping plaza wanted to introduce itself and its tenants to neighborhoods in the area. This circular was developed, providing a map, descriptions of the the various businesses and coupons.,''); ?> </div><!--end box_small-->It's probably obvious that I don't write any code. I appreciate all your help.

Hey,
You can't insert your text content directly into my code - the function I posted above shows the excerpt text of your portfolio entry. So insert following code as it is into template_portfolio.php:
<?php echo '<a href="'.$portfolio_image.'" rel="lightbox[portfolio]"><img class="aligncenter" src="'.$portfolio_image_small.'" alt="" /></a>'; the_content('',FALSE,''); ?> </div><!--end box_small-->and use any text you want as the post excerpt. Use following tag to seperate excerpt from other content:
<!--more-->i.e. like:
and I told him that he should get moving or I'd be on him like a limpet. He looked at me with shock on his face and said <!--more--> more text content....Posted 2 years ago # -
Hi this post was exactly what I was looking for. However, after I did the code, the text worked great, but it doubled my posts on the portfolio page. Can you help me figure out why? I tried deleting the page and starting again, nothing has worked. I don't do much code work so any help you can offer would be great.
