    Hello OceanThemes team! :)
    I would like to ask you for a little advise for the gallery section of my website. Could you suggest me how to make the gallery with different sections like you have done in your demo version - guestroom, livingroom ( for my website it would probably be : Work in progess, Finished projects). 
    In the Dashboard menu --> Gallery section I have created new Gallery with category (Work in progress) and then I have added the photos that I wanted to be displayed + Featured image in it and after saving and publishing it, the new section had appeared in the website but when I click on the "work in progress" it displays only the Featured photo without the ones that I have added in the gallery. 
    The main idea is to create a gallery or portfolio which works and looks well like the one in the demo but with different sections instead "guestroom" and "livingroom" .It displays to me only the featured photo without the ones in the new gallery I have created for the category "work in progress".

    I found that creating New gallery and putting featured image + setting category for every single photo solves the problem and then they appear together but the photos are more than 300 and it would take some time to do it and I hope that there could be a faster way.
    Hope I have explained well.
    Thank you. :)
    Kind regards, Nick. Have a good day!

    Hi,

    If you want to click feature image to show content, you can use element "OT Portfolio Style Masonry 1/2/3"

    And you need to upload content in  Dashboard --> portfolio.

    Dashboard --> gallery only use to show feature image.

    Also, when you upload content in portfolio you can visual composer to build (same the page).

    Setup visual composer for portfolio : 

    1, In admin dashboard -> Visual Composer -> Role Manager and see more image :

    2, In Custom Post Type "portfolio" and see more image :

    Good luck!

    Hello,
    thank you for the fast response.
    I have tried to do the instructions as followed but when I created the Portfolio Mansory styles 1/2/3 and click on the featured image it opens the uploaded pictures and kinda solves the situation but the way it's showing the pictures is not like the way I want to ( you can see from the attached file how they open ). Is there a way when I click on a certain featured portfolio picture to open them with different style not like the one from the picture because it doesn't suits well with the main design style of the website. Probably it would be good to open them like the ones from OT Gallery Mansory - like small thumbnails and on click to enlarge a little bit... or may be in another variation instead of the one shown in the image I have uploaded. The theme I am using is Talos which is amazing and only this situation with Portofolio/Gallery settings needs to be solved and my website will be ready to roll ;) 
    P.S. In the Visual composer settings there was not "service" check, only the "page" check was there + other options like "ot_gallery" and "portoflio".
    Thank you again for the fast response and attention.
    Kind regards, Nick. Have a good day! :)

    Hello,
    I have done the same thing as instructed but the portfolio images still appear the same - vertically on the page with huge "X" above instead of other design style - for example - horizontally with image click and enlarge will look good. I hope we could solve this situation with this portfolio settings because this is the only thing left to do on my website to be ready.
    In Rolemanager settings the "service" check is missing - check the images attached.
    Thank you again for fast respond.
    Hope we could solve this situation.
    Kind regards, Nick. Have a good day.

    Hello, I know that method you have described which also wrote 2 posts behind. But the issue here is that I must upload images 1 by 1 and create new gallery for every single one of them which doesn't work for me.
    "I found that creating New gallery and putting featured image + setting category for every single photo solves the problem and then they appear together but the photos are more than 300 and it would take some time to do it and I hope that there could be a faster way"
    Is there a way if I give you link to my website + username and password to try and configure the portfolio issue ?
    Thank you.
