Portefolio items are with odd behaviour

Hey forcetechnology2,

Thank you for the inquiry.

A sort button or category will only display when a post that belongs to that category actually exists or is visible in the page. We can use css to display hiddencategories or sort buttons but nothing will happen when you click on them. This is one of the limitations of the sort option.

.av-masonry-sort .avia_hide_sort {
	display: inline;
}

Hi,

Why isn’t the thumb nail images showing on posts loaded after clicking Load more?

The images are there but they are being covered by the masonry content. There seems to be a lot br tags in the posts. Example.

<h3 class="av-masonry-entry-title entry-title " itemprop="headline">Sådan vælger du den rigtige servicetype til din forretning</h3>
<div class="av-masonry-entry-content entry-content" itemprop="text">ARTIKEL
br
br
br
Af Henrik Blach, FORCE Technology, Projektleder,…</div>

Did you intentionally add the br tags? Adding this css code might help but it will remove or hide the br tags.

.av-masonry-entry-content.entry-content br {
    display: none !important;
}

Hi,

Thank you for following up.

Looks like the issue only occurs when the loaded post has been created using the Advance Layout Builder (ALB). To fix the issue temporarily, please edit the enfold/config-templatebuilder/avia-shortcodes/av-helper-masonry.php and look for this code around line 561:

$markup = avia_markup_helper( array( 'context' => 'entry_content', 'echo' => false, 'id' => $entry['ID'], 'custom_markup' => $this->atts['custom_markup'] ) );
$items .=	"<div class='av-masonry-entry-content entry-content' {$markup}>{$content}</div>";

Replace it with:

$content = strip_tags($content);
$markup = avia_markup_helper( array( 'context' => 'entry_content', 'echo' => false, 'id' => $entry['ID'], 'custom_markup' => $this->atts['custom_markup'] ) );
$items .=	"<div class='av-masonry-entry-content entry-content' {$markup}>{$content}</div>";

This will remove all the tags in the masonry excerpt. We will forward the issue to our channel.

Another solution is to manually define the excerpt for posts that were created with the ALB.

Hi!

– And the multiple
is still there = the caption to the preview looks very odd

Looks like you have created a copy of the masonry file. Unfortunately, the theme is using that file instead of the file where you added the modification. We edited the copy of masonry file and implemented the changes. This removes the br tags from the excerpt.

– When I select Podcasts only one preview is shown but there are two podcasts.

The other podcast does not show because it is not loaded, yet. You have to load more posts until the other podcast is visible. Again, this is a limitation of the sort button. It can only sort posts that already exist in the page. It cannot dynamically fetch the post from the database and return it in the page if that is what you are expecting. Unfortunately, that is not how the sorting option works.

– The screen is still freaking flickering when I click Load more

I am not really sure why that is happening but you can try this css code.

.avia_loading_icon {
    display: none !important;
}

– Two categories are not shown at all: Guidelines and Rapportager And two categories are not shown at all.

The categories show up when you load more posts.

Hi,

Thank you for the update.

Have you tried manually adding excerpts to posts that were created with the advance layout builder? If you cannot find the Excerpt field or box, edit one the ALB posts and enable the Excerpt field from the Screen Options. You can then manually add the excerpt instead of showing the content of the ALB.

We can remove the whitespace and linebreaks with a script but we may get unexpected results such as a missing space between the headline and the actual content.

Hey!

Don’t you agree with that?

We are actually offering work arounds, or at least providing suggestions to fix the issue temporarily, while we are trying to figure out what is actually causing the issue. I thought that was how the previous responses are coming.

The issue seems to only occur when the posts are created with the advance layout builder, so manually adding an excerpt and showing that text instead of the actual builder content should fix the issue temporarily.

We will forward the issue to our channel.

Cheers!

Hi,

We added a new filter called avf_masonry_entry_content in the latest version (4.8.3) that should allow processing of the masonry content before returning it. We can use this filter to return a content without the tags and the extra spaces. The filter can be added in the functions.php file.

Example:

 add_filter("avf_masonry_entry_content", function($content) {
	$content = strip_tags(trim($content));
	return $content;
 }, 10, 1);

Let us know if that helps.

Hi,

Thank you for following up.

The same code works properly on our end. Did you copy it from your email? Please try to copy it directly from the forum to avoid conversion of symbols such as apostrophes.

The previous login token has already expired, so we cannot access the dashboard. Please generate another login token or provide a user account in the private field.

Hi,

We corrected the code in the functions.php file and it seems to be working correctly. The white spaces in the masonry content are now gone including the br tags. If you want to completely remove the content, just replace the filter with this one.

add_filter("avf_masonry_entry_content", function($content) {
       return "";
}, 10, 1);

Best regards,
Ismael
