When I create a page and set the Template to any of the portfolio types, is it possible to restrict the posts that are shown based upon category?
The use case is that we have three pages where we want to use the "Portfolio" template but each one needs to show posts from different categories.
Many thanks in advance for your help!

I second this question - I would like to know too!

<?php
query_posts('cat=17&posts_per_page=3');
while (have_posts()) : the_post();
the_title();
the_content();
endwhile;
?>
you can use this for restrict ing the categories. just you need to pass your category id and limit the posts per page.
thanks

p5systems, I'm sorry, I'm not quite understanding your answer because I'm still learning my way around WP.
For example, I want three different Portfolio pages: Video, Photography, and Ebooks. Video portfolio is for category "videos," Photography portfolio is for category "photos," and Ebooks portfolio is for category "books." Let's say portfolio page for video is ID #123, for photography it is ID #456, and for ebooks it is ID #789.
How would I modify your code example for the Video portfolio page? If I see how it's done for a specific page and parameters, then the other two would be easy to figure out.
Also, do I insert the code into the Custom CSS in Theme Options, or do I insert it elsewhere, perhaps a child theme?
Pinboard is a great theme, and I'd love to be able to customize it just a little bit more. Thank you :)

Okay, but it seemed like a logical continuation. I'll post another thread later, thanks.
