Wix Portfolio: Customizing Your Wix Portfolio Pages
17 min read
Customize the pages that showcase your portfolio's collections and projects. Select elements on the pages to discover and play around with their customization options. You can also manually add or remove elements like you would for other pages in your Editor.
Wix Portfolio is built on dynamic pages which allows you to apply a template page to all projects. This means that if you add or remove additional elements on a project, those images or text box changes are applied to all of your projects.
Your portfolio pages consist of:
- Portfolio: The main page where your collections are displayed. Think of it like the homepage of your portfolio.
- Collection pages: The pages that display all the projects that appear in the selected collection.
- Project pages: The pages that display each project's information and media.
