    Good afternoon,

    For the past 4 days, I have been trying to add a portfolio of my written works to my website (as photographs) using the portfolio grid option.

    I have literally gone through every option there is in order to set up a portfolio on my page. I can’t find WHAT to do after putting the portfolio grid in place and configuring it. I’m used to the “add items” part that the gallery has… so I don’t know where to drop off my portfolio items in order to see them such as in the demo (yes, I have also tampered with Portfolio Items to fill up my portfolio grid and whatever it is that I am doing, it isn’t what needs be done. Guess I need a more of an “Creating a portfolio for Dummies” insight).

    Lastly, the support videos take this “add items to your portfolio grid effectively” part for granted. I would very much appreciate it if anyone could enlighten this facet of the theme for me. Thank you very much in advance.

    Hi Stasha!

    Please go to Portfolio Items > Add New in WordPress dashboard to add new portfolio items http://i.imgur.com/ZL930er.jpg
    There you will see that you can use Avia Layout Builder as well. Then you can configure portfolio grid element to display it on your page.

    Cheers!

    Hi!

    I’m working on new video tutorials for the portfolio items but they aren’t quite ready unfortunately.

    The single portfolio view is exactly like creating a page. You add in your content and it gets shown.

    When viewing a group of portfolio items you use a regular page and add in a portfolio element from the Advanced Layout builder to that page and then select what groups and how many to display.

    The Featured Image (http://en.support.wordpress.com/featured-images/) you set on each portfolio item will get shown in that grid display. When clicked, it takes you to the single portfolio item page.

    If you choose to use the Ajax portfolio where the items appear on the same page as the portfolio grid then the content for that individual portfolio item needs to be set in the meta box under the visual editor:

    Best regards,

    Hi Devin,

    Much clearer now. That is the kind of insight I was looking for to help me make sense of the many alien options available in the theme.

    Thank you very much,
    S
