Hi there,
I would like to have a portfolio page with 6 columns, how can I do that?
Also, how can I use this 6 columns layout with the “Recent Posts” shortcode (or the recent posts2 described here: https://community.theme.co/forums/topic/display-more-than-4-portfolio-items-with-recent-posts-shortcode/)?

thanks,

Raphael

Hi Raphael,

Thanks for writing in!

The portfolio and recent post shortcode has a maximum limit of 4 columns only.

Having 6 columns could be possible with custom development, but this would be outside the scope of support we can offer. You may wish to consult a developer to assist you with this. X is quite extensible with child themes, so there are plenty of possibilities. Thanks for understanding. Take care!

OK, thanks, can you at least point me in the right direction? Where is the code for the 4 columns layout?

Hi there,

It should be on this file

\wp-content\themes\x\framework\views\global\_portfolio.php

Example,

switch ( $cols ) {
  case 'One'   : $cols = 1; break;
  case 'Two'   : $cols = 2; break;
  case 'Three' : $cols = 3; break;
  case 'Four'  : $cols = 4; break;
}
//Overrides the above columns
$cols = 6;

About the recent posts shortcode, it’s not possible. It’s part of cornerstone core files, you may then use Essential Grid to replace recent posts element.

Thanks!

OK, with this I’ve added a cols-6 to the container, but when I edit the css to change the width, the items in the portfolio are smaller but still in 4 cols…
I think I have to change some settings in isotope, I am right?
Can you tell me where are the x config for isotope?

thanks a lot

Hi There,

Please take a look at this file: x\framework\views\global\_script-isotope-portfolio.php

Hope it helps 🙂
