How to make portfolio visible?

    Hello WordPress world,

    It’s my first time using WordPress but I have been using computers since 1989, so I’m not a novice user. I have also used many template sites to build my online portfolio, so the concept is not foreign to me.

    That being said, I am unable to view my portfolio projects on my site UNLESS I type in the entire URL with /portfolio at the end of it. When it appears, it appears in ARCHIVES (what?!). This will not do. I need my site to look like the template I chose — SNAPS — which showcases the projects below the main image.

    I selected the ENABLED box in the portfolio section of my dashboard, so where on my site is it???? What am I doing wrong??????

    Any help and/or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you!

    I read WordPress’s support page for Portfolios, which confirmed what you’ve seen occur:

    “…portfolios are displayed automatically at the address ​http://yourgroovysite.wordpress.com/portfolio”

    So perhaps you could embed your portfolio projects within posts that will show up on your front page? Here’s a link showing how to do that:

    Hope this helps!
