    Hello,

    I would like (for example) to push a button and add or remove a portfolio category from the Portfolio Grid element.

    I am not speaking about filtering among the already defined portfolio categories, but directly change them when a button is pressed on the interface.

    Anybody have a clue about this?

    Regards,

    Just for making clear my final purpose: What I really want is being able to search through multiple portfolio categories, tags and custom fields in my portfolio and present then in a portfolio grid.

    I have seen various taxonomy plugins but they speak about posts..

    Which is the best way to achieve it?

    Hello!

    If you mean on the front end, where a user would be doing this then you would need to find a plugin or have one created for the task. The theme doesn’t have any mechanism in place to filter portfolio items other than by category.

    Thanks Devin, that is clear.

    My problem is that if I define many portfolio categories (say 16 categories) and place them all in a sortable Portfolio Grid, the functionality gets a bit compromised (esthetics basically).

    Do you think it is a lot of changes that have to be done If I wanted for example to use a drop-down in order to display all these categories?

    It would be a good amount of changes but not huge. The biggest issue you may run in to that you might not have checked for yet is that the sorting does not pull data from other pages. It only sorts and displays the items that are already visible on the screen.

    So keep that in mind in thinking of how you would set things up.

    Yeah, I guess that I can live with the fact that the sorting does not pull data from other pages.

    Could you suggest the starting point? portfolio.php?

    Yes, inside the shortcodes folder in the config-templatebuilder.
