# Adjust Archive page

 * Is it possible to rename the Archive page? OR… to display the project type name
   instead of Archive? I did this for the post categories and it has the category
   at the top of the page.
 * Basically I want it to say the project type at the top of the page instead of
   Archive.
    Also do you have the css to lower the title? you can see it’s cut off
   a bit.
 * Thanks for all your help. I’m VERY happy with the way the site has turned out.

 * There are a couple of ways you could do this – this is the one I’ve tested:
 * First, you’ll need to set up a child theme, so your tweaks won’t be overwritten
   when updating the theme. Here are some guides in case you haven’t made one before:

 * Next, download the [Sketch](https://wordpress.org/themes/sketch/) theme.
 * Make a copy of the custom template for portfolio project types, called taxonomy-
   jetpack-portfolio-type.php, and place it in your child theme.
 * In the same file, you’ll also want to replace the line
 * `<?php sketch_paging_nav(); ?>`
 * with
 *     ```
       <?php pictorico_paging_nav(); ?>
       ```
   
 * That should get you started – the project type should now appear as the page 
   heading on your project type archive pages.
 * Let me know how it goes!

 * Hello Kathryn
 * First of all thank you very much for your helpful support in this forum.
 * I followed the steps as you described above and it worked fine for renaming the
   archive page to its title. However doing so, the following problems appeared:
 * 1) 4 of 5 featured images were not shown anymore on the main portfolio page
    
   2) the one picture which appeared has been resized automatically 3) clicking 
   that picture did not lead to the page of the portfolio post anymore but opened
   the picture in a slide show instead.
 * I now deleted the taxonomy-jetpack-portfolio-type.php again, as it didn’t work
   so far. Could you please give me advise, how I could solve these problems?

 * You’re welcome!
 * I’m not sure why just adding the new template caused those other issues, that’s
   odd.
 * You could try another method, still within your child theme, so your changes 
   aren’t overwritten every time you update the theme.
 * Copy the file archive.php from the parent and place it in your child theme.
 * Below this existing code on lines 62-62:
 *     ```
       elseif ( is_tax( 'post_format', 'post-format-chat' ) ) :
         _e( 'Chats', 'pictorico' );
       ```
   
 * …add a **new** condition:
 *     ```
       elseif ( is_tax( 'jetpack-portfolio-type' ) ) :
         single_term_title();
       ```
   
 * Let me know if that does it – it worked well on my test site.
