Basic beginner question: I did set up the simple portfolio as my homepage. How can I edit each portfolio post? As a Wordpress Beginner I don`t know where to find access. Do I have first add each portfolio page to the menu in WP?
Another question is how to edit the header section/overhead menu? With Elementor I can only edit the "content" of the page.
First of all thank you for purchasing Bifrost, we hope that you'll be satisfied at the end with our product, we'll try out best to help you understand how the things are built in and how they work.
Portfolio Items:
The images that are displayed on the portfolio element are portfolio items, they are linked through categories to the portfolio element. The images that are displayed for the portfolio item are placed on featured image of each portfolio item.
The following example shows a posts element in which are attached 'Apps', 'Development' and 'Editing' categories, which means all the portfolio items that have assigned one of these categories will be directly displayed on that page.
One more thing is the Metro Layout Type in which the posts are manually added via query field, the reason why they are manually added there is because of their flexibility for columns.
In the theme you can either use the header that comes as default where you can upload the logo from Customizer and manage it from there or via Elementor where you can create headers and assign them to different pages, so please hover onto button Edit with Elementor and see if there appears a header template. https://prnt.sc/ppaaad
Click onto the template and the editor for that template will be opened where you can easily edit it.
If no header appears, apparently you haven't assigned any header to the website and you're using the default one, please check the video below to see how the things are created.
I did find the query field where the posts are manually added, but I still cannot find where to change/upload the placeholder image for the featured image as well as for the portfolio post image itself. Where exactly do I edit each individual post?
When I open one portfolio post with Elementor I only can edit the text not the image. And when I go to my WP to the portfolio item I only can edit the picture like crop, scale ...See attached screenshot
I did solve the problem...I had to delete the placeholder image first in the WP settings before I could upload a new one. It took a while to find that and it would be much easier if everything could be edited with Elementor. But thank you for your help. No need for further explanation :)
I do have some more questions:
After I did upload some pictures the pictures a no longer aligned with the text (see attachment). How can I fix that? As I want the design to be very simple I would like to know if can I delete the Portfolio Categories? Also, where can I delete the enlargement effect when clicking on one image?
Good to know that you managed to solve feature image issues.
1) Can you please provide me with an URL for that? So, I can check and see where that is coming.
2) Removing the categories directly is not possible, but if you want to hide them while creating the posts, you can do that on meta tab. https://prnt.sc/q00eei
3) Sure, simply add the following style in Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS.
.p-portfolio-single .p-portfolio-gallery .p-portfolio-gallery__item a { pointer-events: none !important; }
Feel free to ask for anything you need.

I don't know if something similar is possible, you can edit the portfolio item itself and add a redirect URL to it or play with the media gallery element, you can add there images without having to give them an URL or link with portfolio item.

I am having problems to understand how to customize the portfolio items. I would like to show different projects/posts but with the same design structure. I tried to set it up with the customizer, elementor or in the WP portfolio item itself but I failed :) Is there a way to simply copy a preset portfolio item (for example the vertical portfolio v2) and use for different posts?
For your better understanding here my URL: www.tessaoehne.com I was able to set up the posts on top by using the items which were preset. When you down scroll down to the bottom left side with the 4 squares, this is where I`m stuck. I tried to set them up with elementor but when I place a picture it sometimes appears on top of page and on the other post it doesn`t. I couldn`t find where to edit the position.
So to make easier I was thinking of simply making a copy of one the preset portfolio items and just replace the pictures. Is that possible?
2.
On the homepage the menu on the right side is hidden behind the 3 lines. I would like this to be consistent on every portfolio page. Where can I change that?
3.
I did add a site icon in the customizer and it shows in the tab but I doesn`t show when I make a bookmark?
4.
Text alignment: When you go to the first portfolio item "seaside" and scroll down to the description you will see that it is not aligned. Where can I change that?
2) Please go to Appearance > Customize > Header > Layout and select type to template, a new field will appear below where you can select the template. https://prnt.sc/q3a7mc
3) Please clear the cache and check it again, you can also convert if it's JPG or PNG to .ico that works better with favicons.
Regarding 2.) I did change the Header Template as you described, but now no Header at all appears on the portfolio item? I did also check the settings in WP and the header visibility is set to inherit? What could be wrong?
Two more questions regarding the portfolio page:
1. I have now 9 items/ posts on the page. When I look at the page on my Ipad the items are shown as squares, 2 side by side and the last one alone on the left. Is it possible to have the last item adjusted/increased to the whole size of 2 for the Ipad?
2. I did create a new portfolio item with elementor and added a widget/Media Gallery with one picture. Is it possible to adjust the size of the widget to the height of the picture?
One last question: It`s funny – the Query/order of my last 2 portfolio items seem to be different depending on the browser. With firefox the order is different than with safari or chrome? Do you have any idea why?
You're welcome anytime, feel free to ask for anything you need.
1) Is that so? It should have worked if the settings of the portfolio item are set at inherit, but there can be only one case that it can fail, if there is only one template created. So, if you have only one header template published, please create a blank one and publish it, after that re-select the template click save and select again the header you want to use, that will solve it, if not please provide me with your wp-admin and I will fix it & explain the process.
2) If you press on the monitor device new devices will be available, so you can change columns for each device. https://prnt.sc/q4amsw
3) Well, by default the section will inherit the height of all elements that are onto it.
Maybe there is any other setting selected in the section height.
4) That's quite strange, are you using same height of the images? Calculation of pixels can be different on devices, if their height is the same, you can try fitrows and the calculation will be all the same.
I could solve 1) by creating a blank header and reselecting the template.
2) Even though the customizer shows the Ipad preview with one column it doesn`t on my Ipad. See attachment I was thinking maybe it`s because I did set the site boxed and not full width? But there the Ipad preview is also with one column?
I like to have two in a row, only the last picture at the very end is standing alone on the left side (as I have 9 items) and I would like only this one to be full width. Is that possible?
I am very sorry for the late reply, we were not working on the weekend.
2) Unfortunately that only triggers the iPad display not change the columns in that section, it could be that iPad resolution in Customizer is bigger than the actual(yours) iPad.
I've checked on iPad resolution via simulator it shows 2 columns. https://prnt.sc/q4xvpj
Since, you're using metro and you're not able to manipulate with columns, you can change it via Custom CSS in Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS.

Dear Customer Service,
thank you for your answer.
I could solve question 2 & 3.
Would it be possible to have one portfolio post without a link so that it is just the featured image but won`t open up the page?
Regarding my other smaller questions for the finetuning I decided to come back to you later when I finished the content.
Thank you
Kind regards

Hi,
You're welcome anytime
1) There are two ways to achieve that, one is by installing the following plugin which will allow you to duplicate any post or portfolio.
- https://wordpress.org/plugins/duplicate-post/
The other one works only if you have designed completely it with Elementor.
How to save: https://prnt.sc/q3a3ff
Then to import it: https://prnt.sc/q3a3ol
2) Please go to Appearance > Customize > Header > Layout and select type to template, a new field will appear below where you can select the template. https://prnt.sc/q3a7mc
3) Please clear the cache and check it again, you can also convert if it's JPG or PNG to .ico that works better with favicons.

4) Actually the title is well aligned. https://prnt.sc/q3ajtp
You need to remove the content padding via Elementor.
