Portfolio Categories

Permalink
My objectives:

- Create a portfolio entry of data: title, description, photo gallery, category(ies).
- Have these portfolio entries displayed on the relevant category child page
- The individual jobs do not have separate pages, just separate divs within the relevant category page.

I have managed to modify the Sortable FancyBox Gallery block to accommodate title and description fields. Which works, but does not let me add the block to a category.

I am pretty certain I am going about this the WRONG way. Which leads me onto the underlying question: how do I achieve my objectives in C5?

I am presuming I should be using a blog entry; but how do I add the sortable fancybox gallery to the blog entry template?

Anysort of clarification on this subject would be great.

So after a couple of hours research, I think that what I am after is:

Page Type (with a custom attribute 'Category') > Then create the category child page (hoping this could have been made dynamically) and add a modified Page List block in the main content area.

The modified Page List block would contain a category checkbox to add that portfolio item to that/those categories.

My question is then:

a) How do I create a gallery inside a page type template?

b) How do I add a checkbox attribute to add and apply categories on the page type template?
