Creating a Portfolio Post

Creating Portfolio Posts

To create a portfolio post, navigate to Portfolio > Add New. We recommend you to use Visual Composer in creating portfolio post. Click on the Backend Editor button to change WYSIWYG editor into Visual Composer builder.

Scroll down to configure Dahz Setting then fill out the available field:

  • General Layout
    • Header Option: style option to display header of the post.
    • Portfolio Overlay Background Color: set the color of background image when hovering on post featured image in portfolio page.
    • Portfolio Overlay Text Color: set the color of title font when hovering on post featured image in portfolio page.
  • Portfolio
    • Short Description: to add a description of the collection.
    • Media URL Video: to add a video as the header of post.
    • Image Header: to add an image as the header of post.
  • Element
    • After Header: add HTML code to display content after header in portfolio post page.
    • Before Footer: add HTML code to display content before footer in portfolio post page.

NOTE: if you choose a video as the header, you also need to assign an image that will appear on the prev/next post preview at the bottom of collection page.

Assign Portfolio Featured Images

In portfolio post, you can set 2 additional images with the featured image and a background image that will be displayed on portfolio archive page. All those images will be displayed in the portfolio page when you use layout 1 (Calista), but if you use other layouts, only the main featured image will be displayed.

To assign a featured image to existing posts, navigate to your post’s create or edit screen and look to the bottom-right of the screen. You’ll see a box titled ‘Featured Image’ where you can add your desired image. Be sure to click Update button when you’re finished.

Customize Portfolio Post Page

To customize the appearance of a portfolio post page, navigate to Appearance > Customize > Portfolio > Single Portfolio Layout. You can choose the default header style to use in a single post page and enable/disable pagination.
