The filter layout displays your content in responsive grid that can be filtered to show items from a specific category or items that have a specific tag.

The filtered layout can be used for any content source. For content sources that are not able to be tagged their respective categories are used as a filter and when using images from a folder as a content source the image's folder is used to filter the content.

Navbar style nav and images and marginless grid with overlay

 The example below uses the navbar style navigation and displays images from a folder in a marginless grid. When the user scrolls over an item the title is transitioned onto the screen in an overlay. This module also has the filter sort buttons enabled which allow the content to be sorted in Asc, Desc or random order.

Separator nav and boxed layout

The filter example below uses the separator navbar style and shows it's content in a two column boxed layout. The sort buttons have been disabled and a scale and fade transition have been applied. You can combine up to 8 effects to control how the items behave when they are filtered.

Filter using the button style

The filter below uses the button style navbar (the style is inherited from your template) and uses a simple fade transition for when items in the grid are filtered.

Single column filter

The filter below displays multi-column content in a single filter column using the separator nav style.

Options and settings

The Filter layout uses the same maximum column layout used for the responsive grid layouts.

Maximum number of columns.

This option determines the number of columns to group each category of items in. Columns within each group are defined in the layout tool.

Make items equal heights

Force all items to have the same height. Useful for maintaining the grid structure and if you have items with different heights.

Filter type
