Under Site Configuration --> Reusable Content Sections, it's not possible to create a Portfolio Section - the option is not available. Is this by design or has it been left out by accident?
It's by design (sort of). Actually, the sections that are not available to create as reusable sections have either not been tested as such or had some issues. Feel free to modify permissions for this doctype though (Reusable Sections Folder), allow creating a portfolio and see what gives.
The whole process is as follows (for anyone else reading this):
You add one or more sections under the "Reusable Sections" folder
You add one (or more) "Placeholder" section(s) under any page you want
Within the "Placeholder" section, you select the reusable sections you need to display.
The PageSectionRenderer.cshtml partial view which is responsible for rendering the correct section just calls itself when it encounters a "placeholder" section, so there's no need for any changes in code. I can't recall whether I simply didn't test it or I actually had problems with it, so the only way for now is to actually try and use it this way.
