  Hello,

  I’m trying to start my WordPress up again, this time with a portfolio.

  I changed my theme to Illustratr as it supports a portfolio, however the portfolio page isn’t showing up on the website at all.

  Does anyone know how I can get it to show?

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

  Hi jbuck3000 – you need to apply the Portfolio Page template to your homepage in order for the portfolio to be displayed. You’ll find the template options in the Page Attributes box when you’re editing the homepage.

  https://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/page-options/

  Once you do that, your portfolio will show on your front page.

  Let me know how it goes!
