    In my website http://radesign.in I use blog posts as portfolio items. The site has two menus.
    The main menu comprises of ‘portfolio’ (a link to the homepage that lists the portfolio items), ‘about’ (page) and ‘contact’ (page). The second menu is a sub-menu of portfolio that lists the portfolio categories.

    Now I want to write articles and have them listed under a separate menu item ‘blog’ but in the home page (i.e, under portfolio).

    I modified the wordpress theme to suit my needs but I’m cluless on how to make it happen. Hope someone can guide me. Thanks in advance.

    hmm… this is not easy and i dont know which solution might fits your needs… its a bit unhappy that you use the normal post as portfolio items.

    Maybe Custom Post Types are a solution for you, but I would change it, so that you use a custom post type for your portfolio items, and the normal posts as normal posts for the blog 😉

    Custom posttypes are perfect for a portfolio, search the web for how to set it up…
