Hello,
Indeed, the plugin doesn’t have an Ajax feature to load the posts asynchronously

Maybe some process inside each post is causing the extra delay, since 50 posts are not that many

If you want to debug it I would start with the WP_Query, which you’ll find in the class_media_boxes_shortcode.php file, just find this line:

$new_wp_query     = new WP_Query($args);

and some lines below that, you’ll find the “while” which loops through each post

I hope this helps

Thank you David. I instrumented the code in function create_portfolio() with timestamps and found out the that bottleneck was step /* 10. Post categories */. Dealing with taxonomies takes long time for WP apparently. Having found that, I noticed in WP release notes that from WP 6.0 onwards, the taxonomies operations have greatly been improved performance wise. After upgrading from 5.9 to 6.1.3, without any further actions on the Media Boxes plugin, it works in the blink of an eye now.

Hello,
Awesome, happy to hear that

And thank you for sharing your results, I hope it helps other customers!

Best, David

Hello,
It is possible only has shown in the demo:
http://www.castlecodeweb.com/wp-mediaboxes/multiple-filters/

or with checkboxes:

Best Regards

Hello,
Thank you

You can do this with CSS, for example this:

/* Change "ALL" background color */
.media-boxes-filter>li a.selected {
    background: blue !important;
}

/* Change load-more-button style */
.media-boxes-load-more-button{
    background: transparent !important;
    color: black !important;
    border: 1px solid black !important;
}

You can paste it in the CSS tab of your portfolio

I hope it makes sense

Hi David, the first one worked, thank you! The second one didn’t, can’t find out where the layer comes from; took the whole button away now

Very strange, can you send me the link to your site where the gallery is? so I can see what’s going on

Hi Philip,
Try adding this peace of CSS, which will force the plugin to use the default font and weight of your site

.mfp-container, 
.media-box, 
.media-boxes-load-more-button, 
.media-boxes-filter,
.media-boxes-drop-down-menu > li > a, .media-boxes-drop-down-header,
.media-boxes-search{
  font-family: inherit !important;
  font-weight: inherit !important;
}

you can add it in the CSS section of your portfolio or in your global theme

I hope this helps!

Best, David

Thank you, David! That works!

Hello,
The plugin is already compatible with PHP 8.2

Hello,
Did you buy the plugin from a different account? (since CodeCanyon says that you don’t have a license)

Do you have the latest version? Can you send me your purchase code privately via email here? https://codecanyon.net/user/castleplugins#contact

Hello,
It is possible, you would need to make the following small adjustment in the code:

1) open the admin/admin.php file and find this:

<?php for ($i=1; $i <= 10; $i++) {  ?>

2) Then replace it for this:

<?php for ($i=1; $i <= 20; $i++) {  ?>

and that’s it, now you’ll be able to select until 20 columns

I hope this helps

Worked perfectly! Thank you so much! I should have also asked: how do I do the same thing for the number of columns an image/post can span?

Glad it worked

About your other question, open the class_media_boxes.php file and find this:

<option value="6" '. (get_post_meta($post->ID, 'media_boxes_how_many_columns', true)=='6'?'selected':'') .'>6</option>

and just add more items, for example:

<option value="7" '. (get_post_meta($post->ID, 'media_boxes_how_many_columns', true)=='7'?'selected':'') .'>7</option>
<option value="8" '. (get_post_meta($post->ID, 'media_boxes_how_many_columns', true)=='8'?'selected':'') .'>8</option>
<option value="9" '. (get_post_meta($post->ID, 'media_boxes_how_many_columns', true)=='9'?'selected':'') .'>9</option>

I hope it makes sense

Hello,
Yes, you can use any font, by default it will use your website font, but you can define a different one through CSS

Hi, sent you an email

Hello,
Very strange, can you show me a living example online? Or any chance you could give me access? You can contact me privately via email here:

Hello,
The type of condition is not supported by default, but you can add a small filter to the WP_Query in order to do it, here’s an example:

open the class_media_boxes_shortcode.php and find this:

$new_wp_query     = new WP_Query($args);

and right before that line, add this code:

if($portfolio['shortcode_id'] == 'portfolio2'){ // specify te shortcode ID, so this doesn't affect all portfolios
    $args['tax_query']['relation'] = 'AND';
    $args['tax_query']['post_tag'] = [
        'taxonomy'  => 'post_tag',
        'field'     => 'term_id',
        'terms'     => [9], // exclude the tag = 9
        'operator' => 'NOT IN',
    ];
}

you would need to specify the shortcode_id of the portfolio and the id of the tag you are looking to exclude

Let me know if this makes sense

Hello,
I sent you an email

Hi David, thanks for the quick responded. The website that I provided works after the overflow-y css setting. I have a client website under developement, not working with overfloy-y way. May I have you support email and send to you to have a look? I don’t want to paste the link in public.Thanks a lot.

Also, one more question. Is it possible to add a shortcode to the skin overlay section? I have the woocommerce wishlist plugin, I want to add the add wishlist shortcode on the overlay instead of the text field. Thanks.

Hello,
1) Yes you can contact me privately via email here: https://codecanyon.net/user/castleplugins#contact

2) In the skin editor is not possible, but you can set the skin to show the post-content item in the thumbnail overlay, and then in your post add the shortcode in the post content area

I hope this makes sense

Hi Robert,
For example, if you want the filters to look like the example found here: https://www.castlecodeweb.com/wp-mediaboxes/media-grid/ you can import the “Media Grid” portfolio and check the CSS, here’s a little video that may help: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1VVj8YnDMpovQUfX1vOn5eRfRfDTOsDRr/view

Let me know if this makes sense

Ah … I see that this was already there… I probably was too blind to see this example. This helps sooo much!!! TY!!!

Awesome

Hello,
I sent you an email, lets continue there

Hello,

I would like to see how you configured the plugin in the admin section, any chance you could give me access so I can take a look?

Hello,
Unfortunately I don’t have an example exactly like that one, the only similar thing would be the Multiple Filters example: http://www.castlecodeweb.com/wp-mediaboxes/multiple-filters/

Best Regards

Hello,
Unfortunately, no, the admin section is in English, and you can translate the texts for the front-end
