I’d like to show my ACF field however my field is under a group field. All it shows on the gallery is “ARRAY” text. Other text fields show correctly. Any help you can give would be appreciated.

Thank you for your help in advance!

Hi,
This is very tricky, it seems that the get_field method is returning an array.
If you know some PHP I can tell you where you can add some condition to extract the value from the array, but it would require some logic and PHP knowledge from your end

Best, David

Thanks for your reply. Yes I am familiar with PHP If you guide me I can follow your direction. Thanks again for your help in advance!

it would required some PHP knowledge, but open the class_media_boxes_shortcode.php file and find this:
$output         = get_field($output);
this is the line that get’s the ACF field, maybe this could help you a little: https://support.advancedcustomfields.com/forums/topic/how-to-get-field-data-from-a-group-inside-a-group/

Our Website :- www.Brahmakumaris.Com

no, I would update the plugin here at CodeCanyon, then you can download the modifications here (in your downloads page) and finally update your plugin in your WordPress installation

Meanwhile you can extend your support period here: https://codecanyon.net/item/wp-media-boxes-portfolio-responsive-wordpress-grid-plugin/22881148 since codecanyon says your support is expired

Best, David

Dear David.

Thanks for the update.

- When should we download from codecanyon Download Section ? - Once We download what is the steps to implement in wordpress ? - Will it impact the existing portfolios and other setting we have used in our site?

Regarding support, we will do it in this week only. Thanks for the support so far.

Best Regards, IT Team Brahma Kumaris

Hello,
The update is on CodeCanyon now, you can download again the plugin here: https://codecanyon.net/downloads

you have 2 options in order to update the plugin:
1) remove the plugin from your Wordpress dashboard, and re-upload the new version (don’t worry your options/settings wont be removed)

2) or just replace the plugin’s folder via FTP (in wp-content/plugins/wp_media_boxes)

I hope this makes sense,

Best, David

Hello, is it possible to add an HTML content for the popup content in the Wordpress version of the Media Boxes Portfolio? Best regards Gino

Hello Gino,
Ohh unfortunately at the moment is not possible with the WordPress version, maybe in the future I add a way to add HTML content for the popup on each post

Best, David

Hello! i would like to buy your plugin. I was just wondering if it’s possible to create a gallery of media with custom description containing contact information like address, phone number, email address (clickable) and website link. I am trying to create a local restaurant portfolio. Thank you in advance! Giorgia

Hello Giorgia,
Yes, it is possible to add custom content in the “post content” area of each item/image

I hope this helps

Best, David

Hi David, first of all congrats, I see you keep improving the plugin.

I´m working again on my website and I have a problem with “media boxes” that is driving me insane. And I wouldn’t bother you if it wasn’t a crucial one.

For some reason, in a totally arbitrary way, sometimes media boxes does not respect the “3 columns” parameter and, instead of nicely filling up the whole width of the screen, ends up stacking the videos in 2 columns on the left-hand side. Refreshing the page sometimes fixes it and sometimes not. Scrolling down and lazy loading more boxes sometimes triggers a rearrangement of these and fixes it and sometimes not.

This happens independently of browser and resolution. I tried playing around with the “grid layout” AND the “loading options” parameters but it doesn’t make any difference.

Please help as the problem defeats the purpose of the whole plugin.

Hi David, thanks a lot. It worked. But I have another question: I´m migrating my website, so I cloned the whole website with softacuolous but now media boxes does not seem to work. The media files are there, the plugin is there too, the post metadata of the images seems to be there too. But no thumbnails appear. Any general tip on how to proceed in this case?

Hello
Ohh this is strange, can you send me a living example online? so I can take a look? you can contact me privately via email here: https://codecanyon.net/user/castleplugins#contact

Best, David

Fixed! It had nothing to do with media boxes.

Dear Team,

We Have observed that even after deleting post from the wordpress backend, still we can see the post on media box front end.

How can we share details further ?

Hello,
Can you please contact me privately via email? here: https://codecanyon.net/user/castleplugins#contact

I would be happy to take a look at it

Best, David

Hi, I found that the “Media Boxes Portfolio – WordPress Grid Gallery” plugin is having a conflict issue with the “Super Forms – Drag & Drop Form Builder” plugin. The Super Forms isn’t letting me drag elements in the form builder from the backend when the media box plugin is activated. The Media boxes portfolio plugin is loading scripts all over your backend while it shouldn’t be doing that. the javascript file loaded that is causing the conflict issue. please check – https://prnt.sc/23b12ij When I block that js file from being loaded, all is working again. please let me know a quick resolution.

sent you an email :)

Ohh it seems that your email is unresponsive, since I received an email failure notification.
But don’t worry, I pushed the update to CodeCanyon, so now you can download again the plugin here: https://codecanyon.net/downloads and you will get the latest version

Best, David

Hi David, thank you so much for the new update. Now, it’s working fine.

I’m building a portfolio here: https://varsinais-suomi.fi/kumppanuusfoorumi/kumppanuusfoorumi/ymparisto/liikenne/

Have made several additions to the css code earlier, but now I’d like edit the css and none of the changes I’ve made in the code don’t show on the actual portfolio on the website. I was trying to edit the header texts on top of the drop down menus, but the text on the website doesn’t change no matter what I do with the code. After that I tried to delete the whole segment from the code, but it doesnt disappear. Tried renaming the portfolio, refreshing, then cloning and renaming it, but none of these helped and now I’m clueless.

Example below: I edited the text between the ”” (from alue to julkaisija) but the text on the website still is alue instead of julkaisija.

} .media-boxes-drop-down:nth-child(1):before{ content : “Julkaisija”; }

Hello,
Try using the !important attribute on your CSS rule, for example: https://imgur.com/a/mEAnYd5

I hope this helps :)

Best, David

Hey David hope you are well.

Is it possible to add links to some images in a gallery while the other images remain as image popups?

Hi Rob,
Ohhh unfortunately at the moment there’s no setting for this, but I will take note for an update

Best, David

I have used the plugin for awhile and I am very happy with it. I am attempting to see if it can be used with NextGEN gallery. It lists NExtgen as a source option but I am not able to display anything. I only have one Gallery I would like to display. Are they compatible? Thanks!

Hello,
Ohh, I don’t have NextGen Gallery at the moment, but is it like a custom post type?

Best, David

Hey there, I’m making a custom shop photo gallery and I want each image to go to a unique URL, but can’t see how to do that. Is it possible?

Hello,
Yes, it is possible, first you need to set that when you click on the thumbnail you want to link to the post page, as shown here: https://imgur.com/a/uthCKVd

then in your post or image, you can customize the post link, here (in the meta data): https://imgur.com/a/y90unZ4

let me know if this makes sense,

Best, David

I’m looking for add-in to my WP, List by Year News magazine PDF file with show cover) Will this plugin be good for this task, User can see grid list most current PDF, and if need sort by month or tags is possible (Note: PDF catalog is a member subscriptions) (better have this in WP or independent jQuery version?)

Hello,
I’m not sure I understand, is your PDF catalog a custom post type in your WordPress installation?

Best, David

I what to show Cover PDF like you have YOUR CLIENTS (templates) data file is manage from MySQL or .json file?

most current on top > Cover PNG/JPG ==> When user click on cover They will Open PDF file (target _top _blank or if you have modal window)

Ohhh, yes it is possible, the data depends, if you want the Wordpress version, the data could be handle by adding a “custom post type” OR by manually importing the images from your WP Media Library

here are some video tutorials on how it works: https://www.castlecodeweb.com/wp-mediaboxes/documentation/#html

and if you want to use the jQuery/stand alone version, you need to place the data manually in the HTML (the URL for your images and the links for your PDF’s), but this version is not compatible with WordPress pages though

I hope this makes sense :)

Best, David

hello,

I need a portfolio WordPress plug-in that can display multi-level categories. Can wp-media-boxes-portfolio-responsive-wordpress-grid-plugin be implemented?

thank you

Hello,
What do you mean with multi-level categories? can you explain a little bit more?

Best, David

Hi, I have a technical problem with my plugin. My PNG images are seen with a black background, I can not solve it, the PNG images are the same that I have in my media library, only with their plugin they are seen with a black background.

thank you it was very helpful. I would like to know if you can help me with something else. I am creating a filter with more than 30 DROPDOWN categories, when I select the menu, all the categories are displayed and a very large list opens, I would like to have the option of displaying it in a small window where I can scroll down or up . Thanks for your help, excellent product.

Hello Arthur,
thank you :)

Yes, that’s possible, try adding this peace of CSS:

.media-boxes-drop-down-menu{
    max-height: 300px;
    overflow-y: scroll;
}
I hope this helps!

Best, David

Ey!, really thank you, have a nice day.

Hello

I am using the plugin as a filter for my blog posts. None of my blog posts have featured images, so only the Post title and category shows on the thumbnails on the main screen. As there is no image, it does not click through to the blog post main page. Is it possible to make the section under where the featured image should be, clickable to take you through to the blog post?

Hello there,
Can you show me a living example online? so I can have an idea of what you currently have, you can contact me privately via email here: https://codecanyon.net/user/castleplugins#contact

Best, David

Hi,

On the Tumbnailspage Id like to be able to: Link to Nothing when the thumbnail is small. But when opened in the box be clickable to the post page.

Can this be done? So separate behavior for the small and large size?

Hello,
Unfortunately this option is not available in the plugin, it would require some JS customization

Best, David

Good Morning

we want to customize our media box wordpress plugin with a slightly different appearance. We want to ask you if can provide this service as an extra?

our licesnse number is 64ddb529-f44f-42aa-a8e2-b53d7a483fd8

Hello,
It depends on what kind of customization you are looking for, you can contact me privately via email: https://codecanyon.net/user/castleplugins#contact so you can explain a little bit more what you have in mind

Best, David

Hello, why the spacing of the menu on the page is not the same? How do I prevent or edit the problem? https://tomsholzdesign.de/magnete/#(mediaboxes-grid-614237f5959a3|filter_1)=.category_2;

Hello,
Ohh the hidden filters are causing that extra space (that their visibility is based on a different filter)

try adding this peace of CSS (in the CSS tab of your portfolio):

ul.media-boxes-filter>li{
  margin: 0 !important;
}
ul.media-boxes-filter>li a{
  margin-right: 5px !important;
}
Best, David

Perfect and a very fast answer!!! Thx

Hi!

I was wondering if you have any way of having a secondary filter show up based on a primary filter. for example: Filter 1: All – A – B – C If A is selected: Show filter 2 (A) If B is selected Show filter 3 (B) If C is selected Show filter 4© If all is selected show all (2,3,4).

Hello,
We only have the following option:
You can define when to show a filter item, which can be based on a different filter item (form a different filter group), you can do it here: https://imgur.com/a/oCAFLmv

you can give it a try :)

Best, David

PERFECT! Thank you. Before I go code some scripts, you don’t by chance have a “clear checks” for check boxes button already?

you can use the “prop” function from jQuery, like this: https://stackoverflow.com/a/17902476
