    Dude, I don't want to be an arse.. but, you can see he's not responding which means he's probably busy. As far as I can guess, with GDC stuff.  Just wait patiently like everybody else?  I don't understand why it's so hard for you.

    Man you could have said "maybe he is busy with GDC" and that would have been enough. I just hope you don't speak like this when you are out in public.

    Heyaa.
    Does anyone know if its possible to add kinda hierarchy type of menu for going through the portfolio. 
    For example: Just two links on the menu "Professional Work" and "Personal Work" , when you click one, it shows works only for that one.

    Most of the requests so far are pretty simple tweaks? I mean, learning some simple coding would do the job. It's wordpress, it basically holds your hand when you code something. There are also countless modular plugins available for free or paid for, that do everything that's been asked for. 
    The template is excellent as is and requires little to no customization to present work appropriately. People looking at a portfolio don't really care as long as it's functional. Watch the excellent resource below for more information.

    does this work for the free version of wordpress? or do you need access to areas that require a subscription in order to fully implement this theme?

    Hey all,

    Due to a significant amount of work from clients I was unable to respond to you all,
    But I'm available and will be spending quite some time redoing the codebase for Wren Theme.

    This means that I will be taking a lot of your suggestions and feedback over the last while
    and implementing a lot of the feature requests you all have had.

    So with that - check back here for updates soon, or for more frequent - check the master
    branch on Git.

    Thank you all for the support and feedback, the response has been amazing!

    - Scott.

    I didn't find any way to make it work with the free version. I do believe you have to have the Premium service Wordpress offers.

    Unfortunately Wren is only supported on self-hosted blogs using wordpress.org itself.
    I'll be looking into it in the future, but I'm not sure.

    Apologies, 
    Scott.

    Just a quick update - Wren's website is down, but the latest build is still available to download from Github.
    https://github.com/Sythenz/WrenPortfolioTheme

    Still working on revamping the codebase - will post here when I have more updates.
    Thanks,
    Scott.

    Hey there everyone,

    I plan to start covering WrenTheme and it's development over on my twitch stream so
    that you all can give feedback while I develop and see what's happening!



    Please join, post feedback, and let me know any suggestions you have for
    the next update in WrenTheme.

    Thanks,
    Scott.

    Just checked out your site recently, looking really awesome Jonathan :)

    After organizing my time, I've made significant room to get it fully updated.
    So here's hoping!

    Pro tip: Forget trying to wrestle WordPress to make a portfolio.

    Besides, author pulled down all their pages, which means definitely no updates. And they haven't visited Polycount since Dec '21.

    Just use ArtStation. Free, responsive, easy to setup and use, standardized, easy for employers to use.
