Hello!
I don’t know if this an expected behavior or a possible bug in Visual Composer block settings.
Under Filter tab, I selected category “movies” from “Category filter” dropdown.
Then I set filter type by categories and selected some categories IDs for the ajax dropdown, like “news” and “reviews”.
So I got a stream of my latest “movie” posts only, as expected. However, clicking in any of the ajax dropdown filters does not return the double filtering.
For example, when I clicked “news”, it returned ALL posts under “news” category, even the ones that aren’t on “movies” category, like posts categorized as “news” and “tv shows”.
So, what I’m trying to do is set a block filtered by one category (movies) and then filter it again with the ajax dropdown filters for another categories (news, reviews…), showing only posts marked in those two categories (movies AND news, movies AND reviews…) – is it possible?
Hi,
If I understand correctly you want to have a filter that you can filter again, unfortunately if you set the category filter -> https://www.screencast.com/t/orqQo2aP8KVn will be filter all posts and show only posts that have that category and if you set filter type and show the following ids -> https://www.screencast.com/t/coiPoPjQxBj then the filter will look like this -> https://www.screencast.com/t/cNk2eROftRl if you click on all will be show the category filter ( in this example New Look, all post that have that category ), if you click on a category id will be show all post that have that category, not all post from the category filter that have that category. -> https://www.screencast.com/t/Osxp0xRsL4HM
Thank you!
Hi Calin, thanks for your reply.
Exactly, I need a block that will be ALWAYS filtered by a category (like movies). Then this always filtered block will be filtered again by the ajax tabs/dropdown.
So, it would be a block with all “movies” posts, that can be filtered again by other categories.
– The ALL tab would be filtered by “movies” category only.
– The Reviews tab would be filtered by “movies” AND “reviews” categories.
– The News tab would be filtered by “movies” AND “news” categories.
– The Videos tab would be filtered by “movies” AND “videos” categories.
Is there any way to get something like this? Even by coding?
Hi,
Unfortunately there is no option in our theme that can do this on blocks, sorry!
Thank you for your understanding!
