Work page layout - can be changed?

edited September 2014 in Blame Posts: 5
Hi there,

We're a creative collective working on our new site with your theme. It's looking great :) But we're having some troubles when adding works and filtering the portfolio.

First of all the layout of the default 'work page' doesn't seem to fit with our needs. Almost all of our portfolio is based on video projects so we need to embed vimeo/youtube videos just like the blog posts do (or similar). Right now the video post is like a lightbox link and it's not exactly what we'd like.

Is there any option to achieve that? Also, is possible to create a regular Page layout and set it on Works?

Waiting for your answer.
Thanks!

    In Full width images option, and scroller videos are represented by images. I think that it would be easier to switch to videos in case of Full width images, then with scroller. Hower Slider option(for displaying work media) does show videos instantly.

    We did it as we did, cause in case of slider there is only one item visible at once, and in case Full width images and scroller, there are many items visible at once. If there will be many videos embeded then site will be heavy, not user friendly, and there is huge possibility it will crash browser for many users. Even worse when someone by accident would enable auto play on more then one video.

    So I advise to rethink what you wish to do:-) Cause we did it in "end user" in mind ;-)

    You will have to merge HTML of page layout with works layout. Any Wordpress developer should do it in few hours at max.

    With regards.

    Thank you for your help!

    We finally decided not to mess with work & pages so we're figuring out how to set the site according to our needs.

    Thanks! We can close this discussion.
