Make my portfolio my home page—

IMPORTANT—KEEP!!!

Create a Home Page and assign the Home Page template to it.

Create a Blog Page and leave it set to the default template.

 

Go to the Reading Settings and set the Front Page to the HOME Page, and the Posts Page to the Blog Page.

Now head to the Menu Manager, and create a new Menu. Expanding the Screen Options in the upper right will allow you to add Portfolios and Skill Types to menus. We’ve created 3 different menus for pages, portfolios, and skills.

Now head into the Widgets area. In each of the sidebars, you can drag the Custom Menu Widget. We’ve added three menu widgets to each sidebar and assigned each of the menus we created to the different menu widgets.

 

 

1.2.1 Adding Portfolio Items

To add a new portfolio item, navigate to Portfolio > Add New. Here you can add a brief description of the project, assign various categories and upload media.

1.2.2 Adding Images

To add images to each portfolio item, you simply need to upload your images using the inbuilt WordPress media uploader. All images uploaded while creating or editing your portfolio item become attached automatically and will be shown on the project’s detail page. You can upload an unlimited number of images. Images should be 700px in width by any height.
