Demo Image

On December 11th, 2012, WordPress released Version 3.5 named for the jazz drummer “Elvin Jones”.

With the release of this new version, there have been some changes to the “User Interface” which many of us were not overly thrilled about as we were accustomed to the old ways.

How to create Portfolios

The purpose behind Portfolios is to add multiple projects with the use of additional details and essentially to help showcase your work.

Portfolios can serve many purposes, such as:

  1. Showcase your past and current Projects.
  2. Showcase your photography sessions.
  3. Showcase your traveling / adventures.
  4. Outside the box usage: Shopping Carts.
  5. Outside the box usage: Product Display.

The possibilities are limited only to your imaginations.

Often we’re asked, “What is the difference between Galleries and Portfolios” and we’ve created a specific post that explains that in detail.

There is no pagination and you cannot assign links to Gallery images so when clicked opens in a new page. At least not when using one of our 5 customized galleries in KingSize.
