How to Make a Portfolio Website in WordPress with Elementor - Sites on WordPress
video description
So I tried with portfolio widget you shared in this video and go to the Query section->Source: Listings - Include by Term: Listing categories and from there I chose: -Hotels- and that just solved my problem of showing! [Because this term is items in a taxonomy I created].- Thanks a lot! :)

Can I make video portfolio grid with it with static text overlay over it?
Grid showcase videos and to not make extra rows with text , (half transparent) text or picture overlay on top video show short title and brief description.. Same could go with audio files and grid of square soundcloud players. Not all people are photographers, so just photo grid is not enough to call it portfolio widget.. it's more gallery than portfolio. Would be nice to consider the fact that various people need to make portfolio not only photographers.

I think I understand the styling options of this widget, but I can't figure out how to populate the portfolio with images (it seems like a lot of other's are having this problem/confusion too). I'm building a new site with the portfolio as the main content. I don't have any -posts- with feature images to populate the portfolio with. Can I just populate the portfolio from my media library? There is a -manual selection- setting under query>source, but then what? What do I query for? Where? How?

I wanted to use this Portfolio feature to display a galley of my original artwork, click on the thumbnail and a larger version of the image would appear along with some info about it. That's how I am used to seeing Portfolio's on websites....this -Portfolio- feature you have is actually only a display of actual posts to your website and not for lack of a better term -an advanced image gallery- at all?

Hi, I currently use elementor PRO. I need to use thumbnails on my portfolio section and when the user clicks any thumbnail I'd like they could see other images inside this -proyect-. As an example, the images in my portfolio will be clients logos, and when you click on any of them, you'll be able to see images of the particular proyect. How can I achieve that? Thanks!

So at 3:30 it says you can sort the Query by Date, Title, Menu Order, Random. Three of those are obvious, but the tutorial never explains what -Menu Order- means. What menu? Where? I would like certain posts (pages in my case) to stay towards the top of the portfolio. Too often these tutorials simply list the options shown without actually explaining what they mean.

This is probably a dumb question but I've seen it done on one other builder (but poorly) so I figured I would ask. I realize it will need to be in an update but is there anyway to make it possible to show the -excerpt- instead of the title on hover. Either way this looks great and I'm probably going to purchase it soon but that would definitely convince me.

2016 and it's not been renewed. Elementor is great, and at the same time it's a total disappointment when you actually use it or try to find info for it. But, hey, you've got all those great people creating the content you don't care to create because you're barely making any profit, right? :o(

This is way out of date. The query section looks nothing like this. There is no option to display by category or tags. The new version is actually HARDER to use. Sorta baffles the mind. Why would you remove the ability to have gallerys based on categories. That is sorta the whole point. :(

-Full control over the layout-? You can just display the title of the post and can just create a color overlay as hover effect. Even free plugins do it better. Don't understand why a powerful tool like elementor does not have more options for such an important widget.
