Disable slide animation on portfolio gallery post format items

  I’d like to be able to disable the rotator when viewing the portfolio. Pretty much every portfolio I’m creating is a gallery and it is very distracting having it all change constantly. How can I go about disabling the rotator but leave the nav arrows/controls?

  Portfolio
  Open the file “templates/grid.php” and on line 181 change 'autoplay' => 'true', to be 'autoplay' => 'false',

  Open the file “single-portfolio.php” and on line 74 change 'autoplay' => 'true', to be 'autoplay' => 'false',

  Blog

  To do the same for blog gallery posts you would open the file “templates/post-gallery.php” and on line 36 change 'autoplay' => 'true', to be 'autoplay' => 'false',

  Keep in mind that if you modify core theme files then each time you update the theme you will need to make all of those modifications again to the updated theme files. If you are going to customise PHP templates it’s best to do that in a child theme because that will make it easier for you to update the parent theme.

  Thanks! It was the right parameter but I had to edit single-portfolio.php and grid.php to get it to do what I wanted.

  Hey Andy,

  I have implemented the above code – and still the images rotate.

  Any other suggestions?

  Well, it works on the actual portfolio item – once visiting the portfolio – but the portfolio post – does not prevent them from sliding – So for example – on the homepage – they all auto slide.

  Hi, nkhouli.

  You are using an old version of the theme (v1.0.1). Please update to the latest version of theme (currently v1.2.1) and if after updating the theme you are still having trouble with this let us know and we’ll work from there.

  Details of the latest version of the theme are here → http://para.llel.us/support/groups/vellum/forum/topic/latest-version-vellum/

  Then I guess you can’t have modified the correct file. Either that or you didn’t upload the file to the correct location on your web server. You need to modify the ‘templates/grid.php’ file.

  grid.php worked –

  Why was that not mentioned above?

  Thank you.

  It’s in toxmox’s reply to Andy’s original reply → http://para.llel.us/support/groups/vellum/forum/topic/way-to-disable-content-rotator-on-portfolio-gallery-items/#post-55035

  Andy said he corrected his post but it looks like he didn’t. For that we’ll have to sit him on the Naughty Step for half-an-hour, but not before he gets the v1.3 theme update published.
