## Description

A powerful portfolio and gallery plugin for WP, Elementor and Gutenberg. Create 
portfolio and image galleries in seconds using any page builder!

### A Powerful Portfolio and Gallery Plugin for Elementor

WordPress has changed. Page builders have made it easier than ever to create websites.

Powerfolio arrives to complement this new generation of WordPress, making it possible
to create portfolios and image galleries in an easy and fast way, fully integrated
with WordPress page builders.

### Plugin Demo

[Click here to see the portfolio demo](https://powerfoliowp.com/)

### 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.

### Compatible With Elementor

Powerfolio is 100% compatible with Elementor. It means that you can use our portfolio
for elementor or image gallery elementor widgets to create a gallery grid on any
page and edit using the page builder features of Elementor.

### Integrated with Gutenberg

Powerfolio is also compatible with Gutenberg, the block editor from WordPress. With
our Portfolio and Image Gallery blocks you can easily create and customize filterable
image grids using the visual editor from WordPress.

### Filterable Galleries

Powerfolio has built-in filterable gallery option. By activating it, your users 
will be able to filter the items in the gallery according to the selected category.

### CSS Animations and Transition Effects

You can choose from several transition effects for your portfolio or image grid.
A simple way to delight your users.

### Custom Grids

There are several grid options to choose from, like the classic box grid, masonry
and custom grids.
 You can also create your own custom grid by changing the width
and height of each item in the gallery (PRO version only)

### Fully Responsive

Portfolios are 100% responsive, this means that your portfolio or gallery will work
perfectly on any screen, such as monitors, tablets and mobile phones.

#### How to display the filterable portfolio grid using a shortcode

The widget will be available in Elementor items. Just drag it to your website and
select the customization options 🙂

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=””]

   options from the Powerfolio plugin. It will display your posts from the portfolio
   post type.

### 󠀁[Does not Provide Grid with Navigation](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/does-not-provide-grid-with-navigation/)󠁿

 [AW Cerde](https://profiles.wordpress.org/awcerde/) октомври 26, 2023

It lacks a basic feature that other plugins provide in their free version: The ability
to create a grid layout with pagination. I purchased the Pro version thinking that
the grid pagination would be included, but it wasn’t. Have not gotten a response
from support about fixing the problem, or possibly including it in a future release.
Pretty quiet over there.
