    Hello. 

    I have earlier submitted a ticket, but since it has been closed I'll make a new one - hope it is okay. 

    In my page I would like to show photos of our employees in a page similar to the one you have in your preview called "Portfolio - 3 columns". 

    I would like to make a Masonry, but post pictures myself and not relate the Masonry to posts. So what i actually want is to add pictures to the masonry instead of relating the gallery to posts. Is this possible?

    Hope you understand the question ;-) 


    Thank you se much.

    Hi Stine,

    Sure, it is better for us to create new ticket for different kind of issue so it will be easier also for other users to find the solution for the same problem.

    I understand your issue partly, if you want to make similar page like this one:


    (view large version)

    Then here is the page structure for visual composer:

    [vc_row][vc_column reveal_effect="fadeIn" reveal_duration="0.7" reveal_delay="0.1"][lab_heading title="Team."]Our team and staff is presented here, we do what we love,
    Who we are, what we do and our social networks, connect with us.[/lab_heading][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column reveal_effect="fadeIn"][lab_team_members reveal_effect="fadeIn" hover_style="distanced" hover_bg="rgba(255,255,255,0.7)"][lab_team_members_member image="3586" name="Danilo Pelzer" sub_title="CEO" description="Facebook.
    Twitter.
    [email protected]"][lab_team_members_member image="3588" name="Lisa De Ridder" sub_title="Web Designer" description="Behance.
    Twitter.
    Dribbble. " link="url:%23||"][lab_team_members_member image="3590" name=" Richard Müller" sub_title="Web Developer" description="Stackoverflow.
    Twitter.
    "][lab_team_members_member image="3589" name="Manuel Milani" sub_title="Designer" description="Pinterest.
    Google+.
    "][lab_team_members_member image="3587" name="Gabriele Guerra" sub_title="Finance Manager" description="Hello, my name is Gabriele Guerra, I'm a Finance Manager at Kalium.

    You can write me anytime: [email protected]"][lab_team_members_placeholder title="Wanna join our crazy team?" link="url:mailto%3Ahello%40kaliumtheme.com%3FSubject%3DHello%2520again|title:Join%20us%20now!|"][/lab_team_members][/vc_column][/vc_row]

    Add the code as "text" then edit with Visual Composer.

    Hi Arlind. 

    Thanks for your reply - that was very helpful. 

    I'm actually using the page to view our team as well, but i would like for the users to be able to sort in the team (so that they can view the marketing team alone, the support team and so on). I would like it to be similar to the attached picture from your preview page, so that the different images have categories that you can sort them after. 

    Can you help me make that happen? 

    Best regards 

    - Stine

    Hi ikbirk,

    The problem here is that the Team members widget does not support sorting and categories.

    One possible way is to create few portfolio items and assign them categories. After that you can create a custom portfolio page by selecting only team members and thats how they can be sortable.

    Does this works for you?

    Hi again. 

    Sorry for taking so long to respond. I've just had time to look at it now. 

    I'm am not quite sure what you mean about "custom portfolio page" - do you have some sort of guide for it? 


    Thanks. 

    Stine

    Hi ikbirk,

    No worries about the delay.

    Custom portfolio – I mean to create a new page and assign "Portfolio Page" template, then select items from Custom Query:

    Then select the items to show in that page:

    Thank you for your reply Arlind. That was a great help. 

    I only have one more question. 

    I've made i work by making a portfolio for each team member and assigning the portfolio the category of one of the office departments. But that brings me to a new problem. 

    When I view my page and click one of the photos of the team members i get redirected to the portfolio. 

    What I would like instead are two different thing: 

    1) I would like to be able to add custom text on the hover - not just the title and category. Is that possible? 

    2) Is it possible that when you click a photo you get redirected to a URL instead of the portfolio? I would like each photo to link to the team members LinkedIn profile. Can I do that? 

    Thank you again :-)

    Hi Stine,

    Thats great you have managed to sort that out. To achieve the final results I need your WP credentials and set these things for you. Can you please send your WP credentials and I'll handle this.

    To include your credentials click Insert Credentials button in editor toolbar. (See how)

    Hi Stine,

    I've added this code in functions.php:

    // Team members show subtitle
    add_filter( 'kalium_get_portfolio_query', 'team_members_page_fix' );

    function team_members_page_fix( $query ) {
    $id = get_queried_object_id();

    if ( 3536 == $id ) {
    $query['subtitles'] = 'subtitle';
    }

    return $query;
    }

    And then to disable members link for each member in Project Link:


    (view large version)

    Then to show description for team member, use Sub title field:


    (view large version)

    And result will be:


    (view large version)

    I hope this will work fine for you.

    Perfect! Just what I wanted! Thank you so much. 

    Unfortunately I'm not done! So sorry for being a bother! Hopefully this is the last issue. 

    I would like it show as a Masonry, but when i enables this option it (for some reason) shows ALL of my portfolios - not just the team member categories i want. I can't make the rest disappear no matter what I do. 

    Is there some way to make it work? 

    Thank you so much!

    Hi Stine,

    No worries, I'll help you to achieve desired results,

    I saw that this is a theme bug so can you please send me your FTP credentials, I need to check code files and find the problem, because it only happens in your site thats why I need to check your files.

    Also I've noticed that you have 1.9.3 version of Kalium and latest version is 1.9.5 so consider updating the theme and see if this will fix the issue. 

    Save your custom code that I gave to you and after you update you can place it again.

    Hi Arlind. 

    So sorry for the late response - I have been away from the office. 

    I will update the theme right away. 

    What are the FTP credentials? 

    I'll save the code. 


    Thank you again.

    Just a quick other question before i update the theme. 
    Will it delete any off my implemented CSS code?

  • [deleted] replied

    Hi Stine,

    The CSS stored in Custom CSS will not be affected after theme update and you are safe to do that. Just make sure if you have modified any file inside the theme to keep the backup of it.

    lkbirk replied

    Great. 
    And what are the FTP Credentials? Then I'll send them to you right away. :-)

  • [deleted] replied

    Hi,

    The FTP will help me to login to your server and manage files of WordPress to investigate this issue, this way I can edit the code of the theme directly and test if it works, usually you use your cPanel login information to login to your FTP, or better, you can create a temporary FTP account for me, whatever suits you the best. Here is more information about that:

    Please note that when you want to send your credentials, do it via this button, to make them safe from public access:

    Hey Arlind. 

    I'm on the case of getting the FTP Credentials for you. It's a bit difficult, and as I am not at the office full time it might take a few days. 

    But I have not forgotten about it - I have asked my colleague in charge, so please bear with me ;-)

    Hi Stine,

    No worries about that, when you get the credentials, I'll take the time to check it.

    Hi Arlind. 

    I can see that it is working after i've updated the theme, so no need for you to login. 
    Thank you for your help with everything - great support!

    Best regards,
    Stine

    Hi Stine,

    Glad to hear that

    If you like our theme, it would help us a lot if you could give us five star rating on themeforest from your Downloads tab, (if you don't know how, just open this link).

    A huge thank you from Laborator in advance and have a great week!

    Will set this ticket as solved from here.
