Hi there

My current site is http://www.wingdingevents.com.

I am about to purchase a new licence to recreate another one of my sites, which has a video page: http://www.stirlingaustin.com/videos

So I thought the way to build this is with portfolio page, and I wanted to make a test first so I created a portfolio page on the current site. http://www.wingdingevents.com/video-gallery/ As you can see I get an error messqge.

I have 2 questions

1, What is the the best way to reproduce the example site/video gallery page-with portfoloio or block grid and which child theme is best suited
2,how do I avoid the error message

Its not clear how to do portfolio videos galleries-is there a tutorial?
thanks

Stirling

Hi there,

Thank you for the login information.

1. I have fixed your error by editing the portfolio page and selecting a category under portfolio settings.

2. To create a similar page; when you edit the Portfolio page, you can select 4 columns under portfolio settings and select the layout as fullwidth. Then you can create Portfolio Items and use the Portfolio Items Settings below to display them accordingly.

Further you can hide any information that you don’t want to display in the front pages by using your own custom CSS rules and style them according to your requirement.

If you have any further questions, please let us know.
Thanks!

forgot one question, hope you don’t mind-the videos plqy in the proscribed box size, but I would like to make them open in a larger size window, (not full screen). Is there a way to do this in the css or is it a plugin?

thanks

Hello Stirling,

Thanks for the updates!

1] The order of the videos are dependent on the time and date they are published. You can edit it in your dashboard if you want one particular video to appear next to the other.

2] To put a border around the videos, please add the following css code in the customizer, Appearance > Customize > Custom > CSS

.page-id-1406 .x-iso-container.cols-3>.hentry {
  margin-right: 1%;
  margin-bottom: 1%; 
  width: 31.66667%;
}

.page-id-1406 .x-iso-container.cols-3>.hentry:nth-child(2n+1) {
    margin-right: 0;
}

.page-id-1406 .x-iso-container.cols-3>.hentry:first-child {
    margin-right: 1%;
}

.page-id-1406 .x-iso-container > .hentry {
    padding: 10px;
    border: solid 1px #000 !important;
    border-radius: 5px;
}

3] To remove the sort portfolio button, please edit the page and disable the Filtering option in the Portfolio Settings section in the page editing screen. Please see this screenshots: http://prntscr.com/b17ntq

Hope this helps.
