    Hi everyone,

    i really like this plugin but for the apparently no option to have fary usefull shortcode parameters.

    Do you know if it just me that cannot find these shortcode parameters for this Visual Portfolio plugin?

    would be very usefull to have these shortcode parameters as for other app like Recent Post Carousel (https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/wp-responsive-recent-post-slider/) or similar.

    Anybody know if there are shortcode parameters for this Visual Portfolio plugin?

    Thank you very much for any reply,
    Really appreciated,
    Have a nice day,
    Ciao,

    Hey.

    Our shortcode used to output Saved Layouts only. For most use cases you should use Gutenberg Block, which allows you to configure everything. https://visualportfolio.co/documentation/portfolio-blocks/

    An advanced shortcode will be never added to our plugin as it is an outdated WordPress feature.

    hi nK,

    thank you really much for your reply.
    I had to automate large nouber of carousel and that was the easiest way i thought. I’ll try to make advanced shortcode on my own, untill i’ll find another way to automate the process.

    Congrats again for this plugin, really nice looking and really powerful.

    thanks again for you reply,
    have a nice day,

    Sorry nk,

    You know it for sure: where are all the information setted in the Gutenberg editor saved?

    ‘Cause for every grid or carousel there are many information to set (as the layout, style, and you know for sure more than me all the possible settings), and these information must be saved somewhere. Do you know by chance where are all the information saved?

    Thanks in advance for your help
    Wish you a nice day,

    All right, i solved – if anyone will look up to this thread here there is an automated solution, that i wasn’t able to see before as i didn’t know how Gutenberg editor works.

    The solution to automate all this process is in the DB.
    In the table wp_post_meta of course are created all the variables of single posts, including the Visual Portfolio ones.
    Creating a new Visual Portfolio layout make add some rows to this wp_post_meta table – the same number of the variable that this plugin use (thus around 100-200 rows).
    Once these rows are individuated and duplicated, by changin the post_id colum with a new id for the new layot of the portfolio and changing the variable value the process is outomated.

    Ciao,
