    Hello, 

    is it possible to extend the portofolio types or add a custom one ?

    I would like to have headline and a link in my zig-zag Portfolio in the Backend which is then displayed automatically in a special format in the Frontend. 

    I understand that I can use the HTML type, but it would feel easier to have it in the UI . 

    Is it possible to extend that ? Is there something like a more developer documentation, I tried to find that but could only find the normal documentation. 


    Thank you. 

    Sabrina

    Hi Sabrina,

    Hmm I don't thing that it's easy to do that because we don't offer an option like this in our theme for the moment. But it's a nice idea to allow users to create their templates and save them as samples to use in other projects. We will discuss if we can introduce an option like this in the future.

    If you're looking for professional help in this matter, there's always someone available for such tasks on the WP Kraken or Codeable. Pricing and timeline are always straightforward there and that's the main reason for recommending those services.

    Have a nice week!

    Hi Ylli, 

    thanks. I am not really looking for professional help, as I would like to try these things first for myself. 

    I have now started to design my pages with WPBAkery rather than the portfolio system. I was "misusing" it for the nice design but I found it too limited without the possibility to customise it better. 

    Maybe it is also just not the right way to display what I had in mind (a link list to have a way to display picture, link to external side and my description, rather than a portfolio list). 

    I still feel there is something in there, which other people might want to use as well, and the portfolio system has lots of functionalities for that but is maybe a separate post type rather than using it via portfolio. 

    Anyway, Thanks for the help :) 

    This can be closed. 

    Thanks

    Sabrina
