Hello,
Yes it is possible, under each item post you will have the option to add “Popup Additional URLS”, so they are not part of the grid, but they will show up in the popup when you open it

I hope this makes sense

Best, David

Where exactly is that located? I’m not seeing that option anywhere I look?

I guess I should add that I’m using Elementor. This is what I’m looking to do, I just don’t like my current plugin setup.

Great

Hi Marian,
Very strange, it looks like Elementor is attaching some inline CSS to the excerpt, can you try unchecking these 2 options in your portfolio settings? https://imgur.com/a/xl8nfic

Best, David

I did something wrong, now it is ok. Thank you.

Hello,
Can you try the following:
Open the class_media_boxes_shortcode.php file and find this:

$excerpt_max_word=55

$excerpt_max_word

That seems to have done the trick. Thank you!

Hello Jaime,
Ohh I think I understand, unfortunately the plugin doesn’t have the feature to open the post URL in the popup “automatically”.

It is possible to do it, but you would need to specify manually the URL for each post, if you want me to show you how, can you send me a private message? here: https://codecanyon.net/user/castleplugins#contact so I can send you some screen shots on the steps you would need to follow

Best, David

Hi, I sent you a message yesterday. Thanks

sent you a reply

Seem to have figured it out. It was the vimeo embed code.

Hello,
I’m glad you figured out

I just would recommend you to add this peace of CSS to your site:

body{
      overflow-y: scroll; 
}

Hello,
Yes, the Media Boxes is placed via shortcode, so you can insert it in any page by placing the shortcode

Best, David

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);

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:
http://www.castlecodeweb.com/wp-mediaboxes/multiple-filters-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;
}

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

Also you can contact me privately via email here: https://codecanyon.net/user/castleplugins#contact

Best, David

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;
}

Best, David

Thank you, David! That works!

Hello,
The plugin is already compatible with PHP 8.2

Best, David

Undefined variable $form_custom_media_gallery_json Undefined variable $form_fancyb_margin

seems error ajax

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

Best

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++) {  ?>

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

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>

<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>

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

Best, David

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);

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
