There is no option of portfolio in 'Post Type - is equal to - 'portfolio'

It isn't showing any option of portfolio, after installing both plugins

Hi Hammad,

It's difficult to tell what you're referring to without a link to the relevant video or the name of the plug ins, but I believe you are referring to the Custom Post Types and Advanced Custom Fields plug ins used in one of Zac's courses.

I believe you've probably skipped a video as you would need to use the Custom Post Types to first create a post type named "portfolio" and then use the Advanced Custom Fields plugin to specify the field types you want to associate with the "portfolio" post type.

Once you have those setup you should be able to work the rest out.

Hope that helps Don :-)

Thanks for the reply Don. But i found out the problem by myself. Actually we can't give the same name to the custom post and a page. It was portfolio in the video. I changed the custom post type name from portfolio to my_portfolio, it worked then.

No problems Hammad, good to hear you've worked it out :-)
