Can you just try using the Posts Categories? Call one category “iOS Dev” one “Newborns and toddlers” and one “Fine Art”
Then in your menu, you can link directly to those category archive pages. Every time you add a new photo, set it as a Post rather than a page.

PS if you do this, the original pages you have created will need to have their slugs (permalinks) changed, so that the categories can use them. You won’t need to delete the pages if you still need them but atleast change the slug to like “ios-dev-2” just so that it doesn’t screw up the internal permalink scheme.

Have you tried Appearance > Widgets?

Your theme has a custom CSS style on the <a> tags within the .set div.
Add this to your CSS (or inline)

.set > a { padding: 0 0 10px 0; }

Play around with the bottom (the 10px) padding until it looks like you want.

Can you post a link to the site?

What is the reason you want to use images instead of text?
The reason I ask is that the answer to your question will most likely require custom coding and creation of a child theme. If you are comfortable doing that I can give you some help with this.

A much easier option is to pick a Google font and set all your header tags to that font. Check out this plugin – https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/wp-google-fonts/

This could be a JavaScript conflict. Have you tried disabling ALL your plugins, and seeing if that resolves the issue? If so, enable them all one by one to find the plugin that is causing the issue.

You can also check to see if it’s theme-related by switching to the default theme and seeing if that fixes it.

Once you’ve found the culprit you will be able to troubleshoot.

Check to see if the theme has updates. Some things – plugins and themes – break on WordPress updates, and theme shops push out fixes to their themes. Sorry I can’t be more specific, but it’s worth a shot… ??

From what I’m able to tell, all of those other images are Landscape size: they are wider than tall. The one image that is messed up is Portrait: taller than it is wide. The simplest thing without knowing your theme or plugin is to crop that image in Photoshop to be Portrait size like the rest of them.

Also, I’d like to point out to you that the images you are linking in this portfolio are waaay large! You should crop them or use a plugin like Imsanity to reduce the file size.
Here is an image that is in that portfolio: https://www.furkanbalikci.dk/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/Tolga1.jpg
See how big it is? This means that when someone goes to your page, their browser is loading aaaallll those huge photos! That is not good for page speed or mobile users ??

can you provide a URL?

It’s because that image is a portrait photo and all the others are landscape. Go into PhotoShop and crop it using the “ratio” crop tool and enter 250 x 185 in the ratio boxes. Then crop your photo according to that shape.

It sounds like you could benefit from reading up on Information Architecture planning. Because your issue is stemming from a nonexistent content model. Take the time to do that first, identify and categorize the pages on paper (or Excel or whatever) first, so you know what you’re working with. There is no doubt many of those pages and posts will end up in different categorizations.

Depending on the content, a Custom Post Type (or a few!) sounds like it could be the solution for you. Also, figure out what belongs in the blog and create a few more categories to accommodate those pages and move them over.

But trust me when I say the planning and organizing phase needs to happen first, it will save you a LOT of time when you decide to move these pages.

This book by Stephanie Leary can help you understand all this. It’s small, don’t worry ??

have you tried deleting those two lines from comments.php?

As you have discovered, you should never ever alter the files in WordPress core in any way. The file considered “core” are all files except those inside the wp-content folder. You were in wp-includes, which you should never touch.

What version of WordPress are you running?

You can go to Appearance > Menu and create menu items for each category you want separated. WordPress will create the page automatically.

If the categories are not appearing as an option in your menu, click on “Screen Option” (all the way at the top left of the page) and tick the Categories option and they will appear.

I also have the Pro version but am unable to log into your site for some reason. What is the correct way to do it in the Pro plugin? Is the API the only option or can I do template override files from within my theme?
Thank you.

I’m guessing you mean an anchor on a particular section that automatically drops you down to that section on the page. You could try putting an a tag with title (like “destination” around an element in your section, then targeting that in the menu?

Then, go into your menu and create a custom link to that page with ‘destination’ (or whatever name you want) appended to the end of it like so:

https://www.mysite.com/products#destination

I didn’t test it but something like this should work ??
