Portfolio Collection not available on 7.1?

Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to create a collection > portfolio page on 7.1 site. I keep getting this error "The current template does not support portfolio pages." or "Our system has encountered an error. This exception has been automatically logged and reported. We will return shortly." Has anyone else run into this issue?

I'm using a collection page because I want to use the summary box feature to have images carousel through. If there's another clean way to do this without collections, let me know. Thanks!!

I had this same question and what I ended up doing was creating a post entry in my blog for every portfolio entry with the option to link to the source URL set to on and with a "portfolio" category assigned to it.

The source URL is my actual portfolio entry. When someone access the blog entry they are automatically routed to the source URL...

On my home page I dropped a summary section for my blog page and filtered the summary to only show entries that belong to the portfolio category.  It's a drag having to create a "blank" blog entry for every portfolio entry but it is now doing what I wanted...

You can see it in action on my home page here http://www.bestridesdc.com - My portfolio entries are under the "Journal" heading. Hope this helps someone...
