Hi, is there a way to build category-like blocks without any link to categories at all? I mean, I'd like to use the same style of category blocks (size, responsiveness, title position, hover effect, grid spacing) to make links to other pages, not to a category. I would love to be able to use the grid (category/post grid) to build blocks that link to other pages.
Thanks, it's a great solution as long as I can build linked pages (portfolio items) from templates. Too bad, this will add "portfolio/" to permalinks, and it's not so seo-friendly. How could I bypass this problem?
Thank you, we're getting closer. I'm sorry but "image grid style" does not allow to add custom links to images, as far as I can see from the settings. Else, is there a way to use portfolio without getting a URL like "xxxxxxx.com/portfolio/pageToCareAbout", I mean, without "portfolio"?
Thanks for your support, I really need to figure out how to display category-like blocks that link to simple pages.
- You have to set the Image link in the Media Library Display Box here : http://prntscr.com/qzbgy3 .
- Unfortunately the portfolio keyword cant be removed from the url though it can be changed to any other name using the Salient Theme Options Panel -> Portfolio Section.

Hi there,
In regards to the question, I recommend creating portfolios and using portfolio elements to display.
Hope this helps.
Kind regards,

Hey Again,
You can use the Image Gallery "Image Grid" Style and link it to individual pages : http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/galleries/ .

Thank you, as for now I changed the permalink type to "url/%postname%/" so I can use the post grid block. I'll see if it suits what I need.
Thanks for your prompt support!
