How I use dot Folio [www.timedeskblog.com]

I am using dotfolio to create user friendly point of entry to the toolkit. My index page is the startingpoint, and I provide my customers with their owm dotfolio, to further expand the functionality to their site.

The layout control is not yet perfect, but I just wanted to share this approach with you. I realise it's a dummies approach but It shows what you can do with the default toolkit, without digging into the code.

The current forced info fields need some tweaking, and the hard coded "portrait" title needs to be removed, but it's a start for most newbies. I guess.

Once you are satisfied with your dotfolio page, you go to the kernel in your admin pannel, and change use the redirect setting to change the url.

Cheers
Ben

Theme Selva

Ben, Did Theme Selva work out of the box, or did you have to edit the default dotfolio CSS? Also, a tip with the portraits, you might want to set the width and height of the portrait class in the CSS file so that the portraits don't dominate the page, unless of course that is your intention. Your site looks great, and I'm glad you are find the package useful! Cheers, Nick.
