You can add new projects through Projects<\/strong> \u2192 Add New Project<\/strong> in the WordPress Administration Panel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"add-new-project\"
The Projects<\/strong> \u2192 Add New Project<\/strong> screen.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Projects contain most of the same options as standard posts. You can read about these in the Add New Post chapter<\/a>. Additionally, they contain post options specific to projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Project Options<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Project\u00a0Options are found below the editor on the Edit Project\u00a0page. If the Project\u00a0Options are not visible, make sure they are checked inside the\u00a0Screen Options<\/strong>\u00a0area at the top.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are adding a new project, make sure you have saved the post before editing project\u00a0options. Otherwise, the project\u00a0options will not be visible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Header image<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The header image is displayed behind the title at the top of the single project page in the front-end. Select a wide but short image, around 1680px x 275px. Click the +<\/strong> button to upload an image.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you don\u2019t add a header image, the default background color will be displayed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Project status<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The project status determines whether your organization is still running this project (Active<\/strong>), whether it has been finished (Complete<\/strong>) or can also be set to None<\/strong> to not display any status information. The project status is displayed on the Projects List page template and in the sidebar on the single project page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Start date<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The start date denotes when your organization has started work on this project. The start date is displayed in the sidebar on the single project page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

End date<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The end date denotes when your organization has ended or plans to end work on this project. The end date is displayed in the sidebar on the single project page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Media Options<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The media options determine the display of any pictures or videos at the top of the post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gallery<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The gallery section is used to create a slideshow of images to be displayed at the top of the post. Click Add New<\/b> to add a new image. You can also click the pencil icon<\/strong> on an existing image to edit it, or the bin icon<\/strong> to delete this image.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Title<\/strong> is used to help you identify the image, and is not displayed in the front-end. The Caption<\/strong> is the text displayed at the bottom of the image \u2013 you can leave this field empty. Finally, the Gallery Image<\/strong> is the image displayed for this slide. Click +<\/strong> to select or upload an image. The recommended size is 1200px x 800px, but any size will be displayed correctly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Video<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The video is displayed in the media area, in separate tab to the photos set up above. The theme supports YouTube and Vimeo as sources of video. Find the video you want to display on one of the supported sites, copy the URL from your browser, and paste it here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Share buttons<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Set to On<\/strong> to display the sharing buttons for Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest and Google+.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
