Masonry Grid pulling all categories to filter

Hi,

Sorry for the delay. We are not yet sure what’s causing the issue, but we noticed that you’ve made modifications to the header.php file. What happens if you temporarily disable this template or replace it with the original code from the parent theme’s header.php file?

Best regards,

Hi,

The other sorting items are displayed because some portfolio items belong to multiple categories. For example, the item Harrisonburg Innovation Hub is assigned to “Commercial and Retail”, which is a selected category, but it also belongs to three additional categories, Anthony Barone’s Projects, Ben Reid’s Projects, and Kevin Gabel’s Projects.

Please note that all categories associated with the items will display as sorting options. The “Which Entries Should Be Used” option only controls which items are shown in the masonry element, but it does not control or limit the sorting/filter categories.

If you need to hide the other categories and only display the selected ones, try adding this css code:

#top .av-sort-by-term a, #top .av-sort-by-term .text-sep {
    display: none;
}

#top .av-sort-by-term .commercial-retail_sort_button, #top .av-sort-by-term .education_sort_button, #top .av-sort-by-term .healthcare_sort_button, #top .av-sort-by-term .industrial_sort_button, #top .av-sort-by-term .municipal-civic_sort_button, #top .av-sort-by-term .religious_sort_button {
    display: inline-block;
}

Hi,

For additional categories, you will need to manually add the sort category class name selectors (e.g., .commercial-retail_sort_button, .education_sort_button, etc.) to the css we suggested above.

You can also try adding this filter to the functions.php file to return only parent terms or categories.

function avf_masonry_term_args_mod( $term_args, $context, $params, $ajax ) {
    // retrieve parent terms only
    $term_args['parent'] = 0;
    return $term_args;
}
add_filter( 'avf_masonry_term_args', 'avf_masonry_term_args_mod', 10, 4 );

Let us know the result.

Best regards,
Ismael
