The first impression is what matters

Do you want to display projects in a classic grid or in a masonry layout? Or do you prefer an exclusive format, where each item has a specific size? With Powerfolio, you can choose any of these options.

Powerfolio allows you to create a professional portfolio or an image gallery in a few seconds using your preferred page builder (Gutenberg or Elementor).

It is possible, in a few clicks, to choose the number of columns, define category filters and customize hover effects, backgrounds, colors, CSS options, Animations, and much more.

How to display the filterable portfolio grid using a shortcode

You can also use the shortcode to display the portfolio grid on a page/post, or using Gutenberg and other page builders:

[powerfolio]

You can customize it using these options:

• postsperpage: Set a number of posts to show (eg: postsperpage=”12″).
• showfilter: Show the category filter on the top of the grid. Options: yes/no. (eg: showfilter=”yes”).
• style: Set the grid style of the portfolio. Options: masonry/box. (eg: style=”box”).
• linkto: Set the link type of the portfolio item. If is set to image, it will open the Featured Image on a lightbox. Options: image/project. (eg: linkto=”image”).
• columns: Set the columns per row of the portfolio grid. Options: 2/3/4. (eg: columns=”4″).
• margin: Choose if you want a margin between the items or no. Options: yes/no. (eg: margin=”no”).

Example of a complete shortcode:

[powerfolio postsperpage=”12″ type=”no” showfilter=”yes” style=”masonry” linkto=”image” columns=”4″ margin=”no”]

Example of a complete shortcode without the set properties:
[powerfolio postsperpage=”” showfilter=”” style=”” linkto=”” columns=”” margin=””]
