  Hi:

  I just switch themes (Fontolio to Sketch). I was wondering if there was a way to include my list of project types in the portfolio section of my website? I looked at the Sketch theme info and I read somewhere about creating a menu for the project types and then using the custom menu widget. I tried that but it didn’t work. Any help would be appreciated.

  My website: https://ebonymcfarland.wordpress.com/
  Theme: Sketch

  Thank you in advance.

  Hi there,

  There isn’t a way to list your project types using the Sketch theme’s portfolio page template.

  You could, however, use the portfolio shortcode with the default page template to display your project types alongside your portfolio items. Here’s an example of what the shortcode would look like:

  [portfolio display_types=true]

  Using the shortcode with the default page template, you could also add a sidebar to your page with the custom menu widget added to it.

  You can find further information on the portfolio shortcode here:

  Let me know if that helps out or if you have any extra questions!
