Portfolio vs gallery

Hello,

as far as i understand it, it’s not possible in wordpress to have a gallery with filters. Sorting images with filters is only available in portfolios – right?

To showcase my artwork on one page with filters (b/w, color, food, people…) i tried this:
– i made a new portfolio
– then “add media”: a wp-gallery with only 1 image.
– Project Layout: above
– Project Options: image

Result: a portfolio post with the fullsize image, the navigation arrows, the tags and the “featured image”.
Fine, except for the “featured image”.

So my questions are:
1. How can i hide the “featured image” inside the portfolio post?
2. Is there a better/easier way to build a portfolio which looks/works like a gallery. (Plugin?)

Thank you
JM
