Portfolio filter not working right in icon

Hello,
I need some help :confused: I just created a portfolio with about 5 categories: wedding, birthday, sweet 16, etc.
For some reason when I click on the dropdown filter and select wedding the page is blank and then I have to select page 2 in order to see anything. Any clue as to why this is happening??

Also how could i set it so that weddings is set to always open first?

Thank you so much!

Hello Rena,

Thanks for writing in! By default, the portfolio page will load 24 items in chronological order regardless of the category. You can filter out the items by category using the button. However, there is only 1 item or no item loaded in the click category, it does not load other items which is not present on the page. You will have to go page 2 and another batch of 24 items is loaded again.

One thing to understand is that the purpose of this button filter is only to sort portfolio items by category loaded within the page.

Hope this explains it briefly.

Thanks for the explanation. That makes sense, mostly. The only part I dont get is that right off the bat, I choose wedding from a freshly loaded page nothing loads. But there are about 30 items in that portfolio and i loaded them first so if its a chronological thing I would thing it would be ok.

Is it possible to remove pagination and just have every item in that filter load? This is the second time I had to completely recreate these portfolios and I’ll cry if I have to do it a third time :frowning:

I appreciate the help,
Rena

Hi Rena,

Sure, please edit your portfolio page in admin (the page where you assigned the Portfolio template), then set the Posts per page to 10000 instead of 24.

That should remove the pagination since the limit per page is higher. Unless you have more than 10,000 portfolio items, then you can increase it even more.

Thanks!

Thanks, for some reason that option is not on my page. I dont know if its disappeared with the new wordpress update? My portfolio is on a page called “testimonial portfolio”

Is it something I can accomplish with some php?

Hi Rena,

It appears to be meta boxes conflict with Gutenberg, you must update your Pro theme to make sure it’s fully compatible with Gutenberg. Then you should see that setting again.

Thanks!

That was a rookie move, sorry.
It’s now working much better. Except that if I click on a portfolio item it then brings me to a page for that item and I dont want the portfolio items to be clickable at all. They dont need their own page. How can I stop them from linking to another page?

Thanks again for your help
Rena

Hello Rena,

To stop the portfolio items from linking to each portfolio items, please add the following CSS code in the X > Theme Options > Global CSS (http://prntscr.com/evui3r)

.page-template-template-layout-portfolio .x-iso-container .entry-cover{
    pointer-events: none;
}

We would loved to know if this has work for you. Thank you.

That did it! Thanks for your help,
Rena
