ParticipantIs there a way to add a portfolio page feature to the Serenity theme similar or exactly like the Lifestyle theme ?
Love the portfolio feature I have used on this preview page:

Need a solution for this page:

Thank You

ParticipantYou can create the portfolio page using this tutorial or install a plugin (Beta)

ParticipantAwesome - Thank you! Will give the tutorial a try.

ParticipantI did install the portfolio based on the tutorial and it works ok. Making a new page adds a portfolio image.
But would like to pull portfolio items automatically from existing blog post categories not creating duplicate pages and posts.
It is possible to make a portfolio widget like in the lifestyle theme work in another theme, such as Serenity and/or Cre8tive Burst ?
I had it working for a moment and then it was gone at some point during the install of portfolio tutorial.

now it's just previewing my site as if you are on the homepage...I am trying to duplicate what is going on in Lifestyle to my theme, but I think I am missing something.
Thanks in advance.

ParticipantI didn't because I was afraid of all the BETA warnings. But I just did load it. Again - yes it works well but seems as if it's doing the same thing, I would need to input each portfolio item. There are not many directions and I am missing the point of "features/taxonomies" ?
Added a new portfolio using the plugin, no image yet (http://blog.mommydoodlesdesign.com/portfolio/design-portfolio/)
In the settings you can choose "Posts" and specific category "Graphic Design" but not sure what to do next or what that does?
I guess I just want a fancy archive page for this category I already have established
http://blog.mommydoodlesdesign.com/category/graphic-design/going back to the lifestyle theme - love the portfolio feature I have used on this preview page:
http://sweetcheekshq.com.previewdns.com/recipe-index/but don't want to change my or my other clients theme.

ParticipantI found this plugin
"Category Grid View Gallery"
it's still new but I think it will achieve the effect I want.
