    Hello,

    It looks like someone else also asked this question. I can not bring up filters for the portfolio categories that I created for each portfolio item. I am using the ‘Flatsome” theme.

    How do we set the plugin up to not only look at the categories an tags in posts?

    Thanks,
    Jake

    The categories and tags for portfolio are actually custom taxonomies, so instead of using the Category and tag form element, use the Taxonomy element.

    Thank you for your reply Trevor.

    How would I go about showing the parent category in the top element and when one is chosen, have the next element show the items underneath the parent? Maby there is a manual but I can’t find it.

    Cheers,
    Jake

    Do you have multiple top level parents and children inside each?

    Yes. To give you an idea, I have say 3 countries (top level). Then underneath each country four provinces (2nd level) then underneath each province 5 cities (3rd level).

    Ah, then you should have NOT a portfolio-category (a single hierarchical taxonomy), but 3 separate custom taxonomies:

    country
    province
    city

    And with the General tab auto count (2 switches) ON, and hide empty On for each taxonomy, it will work as you want.

    Did you make 3 new taxonomies? Using, for example CPT UI?
