Portfolio Grid and Portfolio Masonry

Thank you Ismael for shedding some light on this. It does not solve all the issues I reported.

In fact, we had this “.av-current-sort-title {display: none;}” in our customized CSS. I took it out. Now the “…and currently active category” makes sense. No need to customize the CSS. We can just change the settings. We probably just wanted to eliminate the word “ALL”.
It would be good to show all category names that are selected instead of only showing the ones that are currently displayed. You can see how useful that would be when you look at the test page I created. As you can see, I limited the initial load to 6 items only. However, there are about 25. If the headline would show all used categories then one could quickly select the category of interest. That would be a useful feature to add. Clicking the “All” should display all. That is what you would expect as a user.

A big issue is that after translation using WPML, the recommended plugin, the translated pages do not look the same. Please kindly compare the EN with DE to see yourself. The Portfolio Grid has lost the category selection in the view and in the editor. The Masonry lost the categories in the editor view only. This is a problem that might need to be solved together with the WPML team.
Too bad, you do not allow screenshots to be attached.

Thank you again for your kind support.

Hi Ismael,
1. thank you for helping to remove the word “ALL”. All good.
2. to show the “empty” categories would be much better. I guess that is a feature request.
3. of course, the categories are translated as you can see in the test page in the masonry. next to it. same categories. the portfolio grid loses the categories altogether and masonry loses them only in the backend. Something to be fixed by the compatibility group.

Kind regards
Wolfgang

Hi Ismael,
2) we tested the suggested modification, but it does not give a useful functionality. Yes, it displays all portfolio categories in the portfolio grid, but selecting then one of them will not deliver the expected result. In our example, we display the travel products for each city. In the initial load of the page, we show the first 4 product thumbnails (portfolio pages). The headline shows now (after the modification) all categories. What I would expect is that clicking on another category (city) I would see the product thumbnails of that category. But that’s not the case. It would only show them if they had been on the page already. So that is is useless. This feature requires more development work. I will put a feature request, Not something to be solved in the support area.
3) WPML team has delivered a patch that makes the Portfolio Grid and Masonry settings translatable. The patch should be integrated in the next update from you guys. It is 90% perfect.
The issue is coming from this file \enfold\config-templatebuilder\avia-shortcodes\portfolio\portfolio.php.
Find this line:
$display_cats = is_array($params[‘categories’]) ? $params[‘categories’] : array_filter(explode(‘,’,$params[‘categories’]));
and add this after it:
if (defined(‘ICL_SITEPRESS_VERSION’)) {
$display_cats_wpml = array();
foreach ($display_cats as $display_cat) {
$display_cat = apply_filters(‘wpml_object_id’, $display_cat, ‘portfolio_entries’, true);
$display_cats_wpml [] = $display_cat;
}
$display_cats = $display_cats_wpml;
}
It works, however, the selected categories are not visible in the AVIA editor in the translated page. This is something you should fix. It is a programming error in the ENFOLD template. Easy to test as well in your own system. Use ENFOLD. Create portfolio categories. Translate them using WPML. Create portfolio items and assign them to portfolio categories. Create a page with Masonry and Portfolio grid and select some Portfolio categories to be shown on the page. Translate the page with WPML and see that the category selection is lost in the front end and the back end. After the above patch is applied, the portfolio category is only lost in the back end. Front end works.
I give you access to our clone with the test page. Please check it out.
