The example in the link will serve for your purposes because it is a dynamic call.
Make a new template variable, don't forget to assign it to your template.
Name
portfolio
Input Type
Check Box
Input Option Values
@SELECT `pagetitle` FROM `modx_site_content` WHERE `parent` = 3
where 3 is the ID of you portfolio resource container (the parent)
Probably you want to output this values in the front-end separated by commas.
If so, select...
Output Type
Delimiter
Delimiter
" , "(space, comma, space)
Now you can create a post with your template, go to the Template Variables Tab and will see the dynamic check boxes working.
then, place
[[*portfolio]] somewhere in the content
I recommend you to take a look to the Tag / Auto-Tag TVs as they probably fit better in your case.
(later maybe you will want to link to each one of these categories, like tags in a post)
