Show selected projects in /portfolio page.

Hi Gustavo, take a look at the Portfolio and Portfolio Shortcode support pages for more information. These were written for WordPress.com, but things work very similarly.

Also, to use the Portfolio, make sure Jetpack is installed and connected to WordPress.com, and that you have activated Portfolio in Jetpack under Custom Content Type.

Sacredpath,

Thank for the response. I obeyed you and made the homework.
It worked semi-fine. Having the Jetpack and Portfolio options operative and using the Shortcode I can display specific Project-Tags in a page, having selected the Default or Full-Width templates.
But the Portfolio template of Espied shows ALL the projects, not the selected tagged ones.
This is the shortcode that I used (the tag slug is “featured”):

[portfolio display_types=false display_tags=true?include_tag=featured]

So the Portfolio template of Espied overrides custom shortcode.
It will be nice to preserve the tiled Portfolio Template even with Shortcodes.
or maybe I’m missing an option.

Thanks for Your support!

Don’t select the Portfolio page template when using the Portfolio shortcode. Use the Full Width Page Template. Are you doing that?

Yes, I tried the Full Width Template and it works showing selected tags with shortcode.
It just would be nice to keep the tiled style similar to the Portfolio Page Template, with the zoom animation and titles at mouseOver.

Thank for your interest in this topic.

You can always create your own page template in a child theme and then create the CSS to display the shortcode posts like the Portfolio page, or you could use the unique CSS body class for the particular page, preceding the various CSS selectors to style that particular page like the standard Portfolio page.

Sounds promising! I thought it was only possible by writing PHP which scares me a little because I belong to the graphic area rather than programming.
However i will not venture to make those changes yet as i am populating the site with content first.

Sacredpath, thank a lot for your dedication to help!

Let us know how it goes!

Just to jump on this,
I set up a homepage with “Portfolio Page Template” active. It’s showing all projects. However, if I wanted to limit the Project Types displayed and keep the specific visualization, I would have to edit this directly in the css, correct?

There is currently no way to exclude certain Project Types from a Portfolio page. In some themes, there are category and tag CSS classes declared in the post divs and you can use that to hide posts with certain categories or tags from the main blog page. Portfolio template pages do not have the equivalent of that. You could, while use a Child Theme add a Custom Page Template.

Well friends, sorry for the delayed update.
I really thanks and appreciate your attention.
As Kathryn asked for, I found the easy solution for this and it dont require any code just using the well knowed capabilities of the theme itself.

Just redirect your site to the Tag or Category listing page that You need to show. Create a special tag for featured content and you are done.

By example:

https://duran.graphics/project-type/illustration/

https://duran.graphics/project-tag/featured/

So I show selected content keeping the tiled style of the front page.

Glad you found a solution using those built-in URLs!
