    I am putting a portfolio grid into a view for a business directory and having to use a shortcode rather than the portfolio element.

    I can get the grid showing up but cannot get it to show only a particular category – it shows everything. Here is my code and the link to see it.

    [av_portfolio categories="health-beauty" columns="5" paginate=false]

    Wholesaler Directory

    What am I doing wrong?

    UPDATE:
    I thought it was because it was in a table or as part of gravityviews. So I created blank pages to see if I could call the portfolio grid outside of the table.

    Same result. I even used the magic wand thing in default view to make sure I had the correct code:

    I embedded two shortcodes on the page: the first is using the magic wand and choosing portfoliogrid – Cosmetics as a category:

    [av_portfolio categories='68' columns='4' one_column_template='special' items='16' contents='excerpt' preview_mode='auto' image_size='portfolio' linking='' sort='yes' paginate='yes' query_orderby='date' query_order='DESC' av-medium-columns='' av-small-columns='' av-mini-columns='' av_uid='']

    No idea why it changes to categories=’68’ from Cosmetics.

    Second is me writing the shortcode out:

    [av_portfolio categories='cosmetics']

    Now look at the page: http://www.tradingtree.com.au/portfolio-test/

    No category separation is coming through. Its showing everything no matter what i use as categories.

    Help Please

    Hi jsharpripple,

    The problem is this part categories=’cosmetics’ you should use the category ID, based on your portfolio category cosmetics is 68.
    So it should be categories=’68’

    Best regards,
    Nikko
