  Hello,

  I will try to explain what I’ve been trying to do:

  I created the website and i put two test images in the portfolio project thingies. What I would like is to sort them into different categories.

  Currently, when you look at my website you see there’s a sub menu to portfolio called Taarten (means cakes btw).

  I would like to put the projects with project type “Taarten” in that area. This way I want to create a nice and logical Portfolio instead of one big messy portfolio.

  Just the embedding doesnt seam to work. I made the Taarten page and in it I put :

  [portfolio display_types=true display_tags=false include_type=Taarten columns=3 showposts=10 orderby=date ]

  But nothing happens, it says there’s nothing there. Am I doing something wrong or is it impossible?

  Also if someone knows an easier way to create a categorized portfolio, please tell me!

  I hope someone knows how to fix this!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi,
  I’m not sure why that shortcode doesn’t work for you. However, you can create a link to page displaying only projects of the type “Taarten” without using shortcode. Your project type archives page for the project type “Taarten” is here: https://lisannehollander.wordpress.com/project-type/taarten/. Use the Project Types module at the left of the (custom) Menus page to create a link to that page.

  Note that you also have a project tag archives page with the same content: https://lisannehollander.wordpress.com/project-tag/taarten/.
