Portfolio projects as featured content in Textbook
-
I am trying to add portfolio projects as featured content or the portfolio site as a featured page, but it does not work (even though my theme “Textbook” supports it, I think). Blog posts and regular pages are not problem, they are fine, but nothing happens with tagged portfolio projects.
I went through the setup guide and did it as laid out. But unfortunately it does not work. I have tried a “work around” with portfolio shortcuts in posts, but I am not happy with the results.
How can I get my portfolio projects as featured content?
The blog I need help with is http://meowfactor.wordpress.com
Thank you very much.

The theme you are using here http://meowfactor.wordpress.com/ is this one https://wordpress.com/theme/textbook.
Portfolio themes are found at https://en.support.wordpress.com/portfolios/#portfolio-themes
Have you consulted relevant support docs also?

re: switching themes
Themes are just “skins” on WordPress.COM hosted blogs.
Note that switching themes https://en.support.wordpress.com/themes/#switch-themes can be easily done, provided you are logged in as Admin under the same username account that registered the site, you tohttp://NAME_OF_BLOG.wordpress.com/wp-admin/themes.php
*Replace NAME_OF_BLOG in that URL with the actual name of your blog. wp-admin/themes.php
We have a preview function. No content is lost when switching themes on WordPress.COM hosted blogs. It does not matter if the site is private or public. Use the customizer https://en.support.wordpress.com/customizer/

Portfolio projects are not currently supported in TextBook’s Featured Content area.
That said, both the theme’s designer/developer and myself happen to be quite fond of cats, and this is not a major change to make. :) We are going to try to add support for portfolio projects and will keep you posted here.

Thank you both for your answers, now I know why it did not work. :)
I really like the theme, so I am waiting for the update. In the meantime, I’ll see what I can do to best showcase the portfolio projects.
It’s amazing what cats do in the virtual world.
