Hi,
I'm trying to bring in 4 items from the portfolio in a row on the homepage. So far I have done it by creating a new php page and calling it on homepage. The code I added into this page was:
<div class="divider"></div>
<div class="hometitlewrapper">
<div class="hometitle">
<h2>Recent Work</h2>
</div>
<div class="hometitledesc">
<p>You can view more of our recent work in our <a href="#">Portfolio</a> section.</p>
</div>
</div>
<?php
global $avia_config;
if(isset($avia_config['new_query'])) { query_posts($avia_config['new_query']); }
// check if we got a page to display:
if (have_posts()) :
$loop_counter = 1;
$extraClass = 'first';
$grid = 'grid4';
$image_size = 'page';
$showcaption = true;
$hr_class = "hr";
switch($avia_config['portfolio_columns'])
{
case 1: $grid = 'grid12'; $image_size = 'page'; if(isset($avia_config['remove_portfolio_text'])) $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;
}
//iterate over the posts
while (have_posts()) : the_post();
?>
<?php
$loop_counter++;
$extraClass = "";
if($loop_counter > $avia_config['portfolio_columns'])
{
$loop_counter = 1;
$extraClass = 'first';
echo "";
}
endwhile;
else:
?>
<div class="entry">
<h1 class='post-title'><?php _e('Nothing Found', 'avia_framework'); ?></h1>
<p><?php _e('Sorry, no posts matched your criteria', 'avia_framework'); ?></p>
</div>
<?php
endif;
if($loop_counter != 1){ echo ""; }
if(!isset($avia_config['remove_pagination'] ))
echo avia_pagination();
?>
<?php
global $avia_config;
//set a deafult query with all portfolio items in case the user just selected to display the page tempalte instead of setting up a portfolio properly
if(!isset($avia_config['new_query']['tax_query'][0]['terms'][0]) || $avia_config['new_query']['tax_query'][0]['terms'][0] == "null")
{
if(!isset($avia_config['portfolio_item_count'])) $avia_config['portfolio_item_count'] = '4';
$avia_config['new_query'] = array("paged" => get_query_var( 'paged' ), "posts_per_page" => $avia_config['portfolio_item_count'], "post_type"=>"portfolio");
}
?>
<!-- ####### MAIN CONTAINER ####### -->
<div class='container_wrap' id='main'>
<div class='container'>
<div class='home_portfolio_row'>
<?php
/* Run the loop to output the posts.
* If you want to overload this in a child theme then include a file
* called loop-portfolio.php and that will be used instead.
*/
get_template_part( 'includes/loop', 'portfolio' );
?>
<!--end content-->
</div>
</div><!--end container-->
</div>
<!-- ####### END MAIN CONTAINER ####### -->...and while it shows up how I want, the image sizes get messed up and shortened. Also when the page refreshes, the images load normal size, then get cut down to about 80px. Any ideas?
Create a new thread and tell me what problems you are encountering and what you want to know. 
There is no step 3 :)
