You can add portfolios to your pages/posts via the shortcode method: [cubeportfolio id="1"].
The id paramenter represent the unique id (required) for a portfolio.
You can insert any number of portfolios on your pages/posts using this shortcode method.
The plugin comes with 8 templates for witch you can extend them to look and feel as you wish.
After you select a template you can live customize that template with a lots of options.
When you change the style for a template, only that template will look as you choose.
The style for default templates will remain the same.
To extend from a template already customize, go to Cube Portoflio admin main page and duplicate that portoflio.
To create singlePage or singlePageInline popup you must create new entries for `Cube Posts` type. To link an item of the portfplio to the `Cube Posts` type watch this video.

be available only for the pages that use Cube Portoflio plugin.
To download the latest version you must go to your Codecanyon downloads page.
There is a folder named cubeportfolio at the root folder of the downloaded zip.
With your preferred FTP client software (FileZilla, Cyberduck, etc) connect to the remote server where your WordPress website is hosted.
After that navigate to the /wp-content/plugin/ directory of WordPress website, where you can find cubeportfolio plugin installed.
Select the cubeportfolio plugin directory and choose delete option to remove the outdated version. You will not loose plugin settings/data.
Then, select the above folder named cubeportfolio (downloaded from Codecanyon wich is on your computer) and put it on /wp-content/plugin/ directory.
Cube Portfolio is now up-to-date and should be working correctly.
Import/Export feature is useful when you want to transfer a grid from one wordpress site to another. The export will generate a .json file with
Cube Portfolio grids and settings from database. At import you must provide a .json file from a previous export.
Note When you import a file it's always best to make sure that you have the same version number on both sites.
Please update the plugin on both sites before doing an export -> import.
