Trying to figure out how to get related portfolios

If you're looking at a portfolio, you might have the portfolio ID in the URL. You would query the database for that portfolio's category, and then you would have it.

If you're looking at a portfolio category, you might have the portfolio category name or ID in the URL. You would use $this->uri->segement(x) to get it.

So, the data is always there, you just might require more queries or method calls to do what you want to do.

Does this help?
