gk8 Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 Hello all, I'm attempting to set up a direct-booking website for my property management company. It's important that each property page be within a collection so it can be re-used across the website in various areas as a summary block. Because the property detail page needs a flexible design layout, I believe the portfolio collection type is the only one that will work for me. The problem is there is no way for me to use the summary block tool and import the portfolio collection content. Assuming this functionality doesn't get updated, does anyone know if there is workaround for what I'm trying to achieve? Related but lower priority - if there's a workaround to add category tags to the portfolio collection elements, I'd love to hear it. I really don't understand why this isn't an option. Thanks in advance! Link to comment

Note also that Portfolios are limited to 60 sub-pages too. The most flexible collection type is arguably a Blog collection. Did this help?

No, not that I'm aware of unfortunately. Using a third-party paid plugin (like this https://squarepaste.com/shop/p/portfolio-filter) seems to be the way to go... for now. Link to comment
