FAQ

Who is this plugin for?
Target audience of this plugin is mainly theme developers who are willing to create a portfolio theme or want to add portfolio functionality to an existing one.
How is this plugin different from Jetpack portfolio module or similar plugins?
This plugin is actually inspired by Jetpack portfolio module and Portfolio Post Type by Devin Price and Gary Jones. However, Portfolio Toolkit is built with WordPress Plugin Boilerplate, which follows a slightly different approach in building plugins. On top of that, Portfolio Toolkit adds custom metabox with three fields.
What fields are included in a metabox?
There are three meta boxes at the moment:
Client – Client name for the project (e.g. Apple)
Date – Release date of the project (e.g. June 2015)
URL – Link to a live project (e.g. http://www.apple.com/)
Does this plugin include any templates?
No, it doesn’t. However, you can easily create your own in your theme (or child theme).
Can I participate?
Absolutely. You are welcome to report issues and submit pull requests.
