The Works archive and Selected work - Auno

Portfolio Pro
This article covers functionality available to customers on the Pro version.

All your projects live at /work/, in the Works template that comes with Auno Pro. The page lists six projects at a time in a two-column grid, and visitors can switch it to a list or to a one-column composition.

#What the Works page shows

The Works title with its project count and, on the right, the list, grid and composition view buttons with the grid selected
The view buttons beside the Works title.
Title with the count

Works (12): the number of published projects follows the title.

Views

Three buttons beside the title: List (a row per project with a small cover, its title and year), Grid (the two columns of cards, one on phones) and Composition (one large cover after another, with the title, year and an arrow over the cover's foot on hover; touch screens keep them under it). The choice is remembered in the visitor's browser, apart from the choice made on the blog.

Cards

Each card shows the cover, the title and the year, with the media badges and collage set on the grid, see project media: galleries and video.

Pagination

Numbers that swap the projects in place, with addresses such as /work/page/2/ that open the right page when shared.

The archive always shows six projects a page, whatever SettingsReading says for posts.

#Open the page in another view

The grid is where the page starts. To start it as the list or the composition, select the Query block in the Works template and choose the view in the Opens in field of its Views panel. That view's button moves to the front of the three, and a view a visitor picks is still remembered over it.

#Edit the Works page

Open the template

Go to AppearanceEditorTemplates and open Works.

Change what you need

Edit the intro under the title, pick another pagination style on the Pagination block, or select the Post Template block to change the media settings of the grid.

Save

Click Save. The archive at /work/ changes on the next load.

#Show your work on the home page

Insert the Selected work pattern from Auno sections on any page, or start the home page from Home (with portfolio) in Auno pages. Both show the six latest projects in the same grid, followed by a View all link to the archive. See build the home and about pages.

#Questions

The Works page shows a 404

WordPress has not picked up the /work/ address yet. Go to SettingsPermalinks and click Save Changes without changing anything, then reload the page.

Can I change the address /work/?

The address is part of the Projects post type in Auno Pro. A child theme or a small plugin can change it with the register_post_type_args filter; save the permalinks afterwards.

Selected work shows the wrong projects

It shows the six newest by publish date. Change a project's date to move it in or out.

I set Opens in, and my browser still shows the old view

Your own earlier pick is remembered in the browser and wins. Open the page in a private window to see what a new visitor gets.
