Hi there,
I was wondering if it’s possible to make a page template to display the content of a portfolio item in a specific category.

I have a portfolio page called “last issues” which displays the covers of old magazines, if you click one you go to the single portfolio post and you can see detail about that issue. All items have the portfolio category “archive”.

I would like to have in the main menu a link “this month’s issue” which will display the content of a portfolio item which will be the only member of the category “this month”.

The difficulty here is to link directly to the content of the portfolio item instead of listing the post from the category “this month”.

I cannot do a custom link because the idea is to change it every month.

Can you help?

Hello There,

Thanks for writing in! Regretfully, this particular customization request is outside the scope of our support as this is not related to an issue with the theme and instead has to do with your customization of it. As such, you will need to investigate this particular issue on your own or seek help from a developer should you not feel comfortable making these changes yourself. If you have any further questions about the theme, we are more than happy to provide you with assistance on these inquiries.

Meanwhile, may I suggest that you create a page template in your child theme. On this template, you will be displaying a page with some modifications which will get the latest portfolio item content for that month. Perhaps the codex code help you: https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/template-files-section/page-template-files/page-templates/#Custom_Page_Template

Thank you for your understanding.
