 * I just can’t get this to show anything except an “ALL” button and two other empty
   buttons. I’m sure I’m missing something obvious but could you expand a little
   on the implementation. My final try was using [isotope items=”6″ tax=”Uncategorized”]
   but still nothing 🙁
 * I’d love to use this plugin but I’m getting nowhere fast.

 * Yes, it would be great to have some code examples of how you’re getting the filtering/
   sorting to show up.
 * It’s not entirely clear from the existing documentation how you’re achieving 
   what your showing.

 * Hello Airster.
    What do you want to show? Your posts? I think you’re confusing
   taxonomy with term. Terms refers to the items in a taxonomy.
 * If you want to show your posts with category as filters the shortcode is:
    `[
   isotope items="6" tax="category"]`
 * Another useful example is WooCommerce.
    If you want to show a grid of products
   and filterable by categories the shortcode is: `[isotope items="6" type="product"
   tax="product_cat"]` Where type is the WooCommerce CPT and product_cat is the 
   taxomony WooCommerce uses for product categories.
 * If you have more questions I’ll happy to help, and share a link to your site 
   so I can see the problem.
 * Thanks.

 * zactoff you’re right. I will post some example codes.
    Any preference? Any known
   plugin or content you want to use?
 * Thanks.

 * Hi jjmrestituto,
 * For me, I’d like to see how to list a posts/custom post types, and then be able
   to filter them by their categories, possibly by their custom taxonomies too.
 * It looks like you’ve explained this above though :c)
 * I normally do this sort of shizzle by hand, but thought your plugin would be 
   handy for clients who like to get their hands a little dirty.

 * zactoff the difficult thing here is knowing the proper name of the CPT and taxonomies
   associated to the CPT.
 * That’s what I posted how to do with WooCommerce.
 * To make a grid you just use the **type** parameter to show posts for a CPT, like
   product for WooCommerce, and with **tax** parameter you show the filters. The
   taxonomies are used as filters.
 * If you have another CPT, like portfolios or movies, you will need to know the
   type of the CPT. Since it’s not very difficult to know while editing your CPT
   posts, novice users can get confused.
 * That’s why I will create shortcode insert helper where you can easily select 
   from all the custom post types. It’s in my roadmap for the plugin next updates.
 * But I’m happy to help in the meanwhile.

 * Hi, you’re initial explanation of just adding the post type and taxonomy term
   to make the buttons visible is great, can you add multiple taxonomy terms to 
   the shortcode or is it only expecting 1 parameter?

 * Thanks jjmrestituto.
 * I understand a bit better now and have sorted out the categories. I can get the
   buttons showing with the categories on – fine.
 * However, I can’t get a grid to show. Do I need to set something in the individual
   posts/pages. I basically just want the post/page title and link to the the items
   in the grid.
 * Any more help would be much appreciated 🙂

 * Got there! It’s working of the featured image and auto links to the post!
 * So for anyone else – **make sure the posts you wish to see have a featured image**
 * jjmrestituto – is there any way to easily change it so that it shows the page/
   post title rather than the image?

 * Hello zactoff,
    now it’s only expecting one parameter.
 * Here you can read my future plans, including more parameters, and multiple taxonomies:

 * Airster,
    Now only modifying the plugin, in my roadmap is already the feature
   you’re requesting: adding custom templates to change the default output.
 * Roadmap: [http://www.wannathemes.com/plugins/wanna-isotope/](http://www.wannathemes.com/plugins/wanna-isotope/)
 * Your suggestions are welcome to help me improve the features and documentation.

 * Hi. A few suggestions for the future:
    1. Sorting – not just filtering
    2. Ability to use post/page title and/or other fields
    3. Specific image for isotope to show in the grid (e.g. a coloured block)
    4. Ability to use a one column format (e.g. a league table)
 * These are a few things I would find useful. I don’t know if anyone else would
   too.

 * Hello Airster, some of them are planned for future versions.
