    I’m hoping someone can help me with this one.I’ve been at it all day and can’t find a solution.

    I installed the plugin Simple Portfolio for a website I’m working on.

    Its working perfect with one exception.

    I can’t create a custom category template that will work. I have done this for post category template’s such as category-4.php and they work perfect.

    It appears that the simple portfolio categories all use the archive.php template and I can’t set them to custom templates.

    I have 4 simple portfolio categories
    /portfolio/category/Hospital
    /portfolio/category/Schools
    /portfolio/category/University
    /portfolio/category/Pharmaceutical

    I wanted to set up the templates so that if someone clicks the link for /portfolio/category/hospital they will get a custom template for that category.

    Can this be done in simple portfolio ???? or will it always use the archive.php template!

    No, still no solution.

    I’m thinking of taking the plugin off the site as the support for it is really bad.. Its a simple request and yet still no reply.

    on archive.php line 72 change

    get_template_part( ‘content’, get_post_format() );

    to

    get_template_part( ‘cat’, get_post_format() );

    then create cat.php (just save content.php as cat.php or whatever you want to call that page)

    make all your custom changes to cat.php I am not sure if you can actually create a custom theme for these category pages.
