Genesis Portfolio Pro will add a new “Portfolio” post type where you can add portfolio entries with images and galleries to show of your visual content.
The default template and styles will create a portfolio grid showing your featured images in a landscape format. These will link to a simple page where you can control the content including text, images, and even galleries.
To get started click “add new” under the new “Portfolio” menu item to add your first Portfolio entry. Simply add your images and content just like you already know how to do with posts and publish. Add a few more entries to build your portfolio archive and show off your work in an attractive grid.
In the settings there is no way to change the default view of 3 columns in the porfolio overview / archive page.
Handy plugin for adding a portfolio custom post type to your Genesis theme. Does exactly what I needed it to do.
This plugin was a lifesaver. After searching the web for a solution and most required moderate to complex solutions and paid tutorials. I was happy to find it and see that it came from a trusted Genesis source. THANK YOU! THANK YOU!
I’ve been using Genesis themes with the portfolio CPT for a while. Happy to have it made into a plugin. Now I am not limited to themes who have incorporated it into the theme.
And, I’m starting to use it with Advanced Custom Fields to create a customized user experience for data entry
