    I would like to create a “Portfolio Preview” or “Portfolio Sample” Section on the Homepage. However this doesn’t appear to be an option in the shortcodes. I would ideally like it to include the featured image, followed by the title of the portfolio item. When clicked it would take them to the full listing of Portfolio Items.

    Dropbox link to basic mock up provided. Trying to mimic a similar style to the Integrity 7 example.

    Please let me know if this is possible.

    Thank-you kindly,
    Ashley

    Hey Ashley,

    Thanks for writing in! At this time, the closest you would be able to come to this would be to utilize the [recent_posts] shortcode to output your portfolio posts on the homepage (there is a video over this in the Knowledge Base). This should give you a very close approximation to what you’re trying to accomplish.

    Thanks!

    Worked great. Is there also a way to make it so the date doesn’t show on the homepage preview?

    Couple other questions as well. What code would I need to place in order remove the drop shadow on footer text and use different text colors?

    And how so I center my headlines vertically within the Headline sections?

    Hi There,

    go to Customizer > Custom > CSS and add following:

    .x-recent-posts .x-recent-posts-date { display: none; }

    About the footer: which stack are you using?

    to fix the headline add the class “mtn” to the heading this will remove the margin top heading so the heading is centered vertically evenly.

    I already have a class on my headings. Is there something I can add in the Customizer instead?

    Thanks again!

    Hey Ashley, we’re glad to know that you figured everything out. 🙂 Additionally, for future reference we kindly ask that our users not bump their threads as stated in our support policy on the entrance to the forum. Since we answer questions from oldest to newest and bumping a thread makes it appear as brand new, this will only serve to lengthen our response time.

    I also want to remove the drop shadow from the portfolio items.
    Had a go at pasting in a few places the code Ashley P posted

    .widget {
    text-shadow: none;
    color: #fff;
    }

    But nothing changed unfortunately.
    Could someone explain in a little more detail where I should go to paste this code?
    I’m using Integrity #7 stack

    thanks
