Support » Fixing WordPress » How can I amend a theme's PHP file to make it include text on a 'portfolio page?

  • Hi. I’m using the excellent pinboard theme. I have a page using the ‘porfolio’ template – but I need it to also show some static text before it shows the dynamic content. Having googled around it seems I need to edit the template’s PHP file to make it include page content (rather than ignore it as it does at the moment). I don’t have enough experience in PHP to work this out so I would be very grateful if someone could help

    Here is the template’s code:

    <?php
    /*
    Template Name: Portfolio
    */
    ?><?php get_header(); ?>
    	<?php global $pinboard_page_template; ?>
    	<?php $pinboard_page_template = 'template-portfolio.php'; ?>
    	<?php if( pinboard_get_option( 'location' ) ) : ?>
    		<?php pinboard_current_location(); ?>
    	<?php endif; ?>
    	<div id="container">
    		<section id="content" class="column onecol">
    			<?php pinboard_category_filter( pinboard_get_option( 'portfolio_cat' ) ); ?>
    			<?php $args = array( 'cat' => pinboard_get_option( 'portfolio_cat' ), 'posts_per_page' => get_option( 'posts_per_page' ), 'paged' => max( 1, get_query_var( 'paged' ) ) ); ?>
    			<?php global $wp_query, $wp_the_query; ?>
    			<?php $wp_query = new WP_Query( $args ); ?>
    			<?php if( $wp_query->have_posts() ) : ?>
    				<div class="entries">
    					<?php while( $wp_query->have_posts() ) : $wp_query->the_post(); ?>
    						<?php get_template_part( 'content', get_post_format() ); ?>
    					<?php endwhile; ?>
    				</div><!-- .entries -->
    				<?php pinboard_posts_nav(); ?>
    			<?php else : ?>
    				<?php pinboard_404(); ?>
    			<?php endif; ?>
    			<?php wp_reset_postdata(); ?>
    			<?php $wp_query = $wp_the_query; ?>
    		</section><!-- #content -->
    		<div class="clear"></div>
    	</div><!-- #container -->
    <?php get_footer(); ?>

  • The same text on everypage or different per page?

    I’d like the text to be whatever I put into the page on the WP dashboard.

    At the moment, I have some ‘intro text’ on a page with a portfolio template, but the template ignores everything on the page and goes straight to the dynamic part. So no intro.
