  I am trying to create a portfolio on WordPress. The portfolio option does not appear when following the directions from this support article:
  https://wordpress.com/support/portfolios/#:~:text=EffectivePortfolioTips-,ActivatePortfolios,todisplayonportfoliopages.

  Someone (not me) had a similar issue in 2015 and described it on this support site: https://wordpress.com/forums/topic/portfolio-option-not-showing-up/

  There is no solution listed.

  The last person I chatted with said it was a problem with a plugin so I contacted them. They said it does not have anything to do with their plugin because it’s outside of their framework.

  WP.com: Yes
  Jetpack: No
  Correct account: Yes

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to moderators and staff)

  Just to be clear the directions to enable a portfolio do not work (they are linked above). I do not have the “content types” option available.

  I am currently using the Jing Jang theme which supports Portfolios.

  You can navigate to Appearances>Themes and in the search bar enter subject:portfolio, this will filter the list to only include themes that support the portfolio function.

  Once you have enabled a theme that supports portfolios in a way that you like, go into the Writing settings and toggle on Portfolios. Next, you just need to add a project for the system to generate the ‘www.yourblog.wordpress/Portfolio’ page.

  All of your projects should populate this page as you add new portfolio items.
