Good evening,
I am wondering if it is possible to link to a portfolio page with a specific filter enabled?
Normally, when going to the portfolio page, it displays all items in the selected category. I would like to be able to create a link that goes to the page, but that also enables one of the Tag filters as well (so instead of showing all items in the category, it only shows the items in that category filtered by a tag.
Hello CHRISTOPHER ROBINSON,
Apolozies for the inconvenience. Currently, we don’t have this feature. For now, you can only select by category, not by tag.
Ok, thank you. Consider jt a feature request then.
I wanted to revisit this. It appears as if within the code, when I am looking at a page with the list of filters, the filter link is using some sort of a "#" bookmark to trigger the filter.
I am not familiar enough with the coding, but is it possible to create a link with the filter bookmark included (so when I click on the link, it brings me to the portfolio page AND activates the selected filter via the bookmark)?
Unfortunately, this functionality cannot be achieved through the default frontend settings. However, it is possible to implement this by overriding the component. Doing so requires advanced coding skills, as you'll need to:
Analyze Component Code: Review the existing component logic to understand how filters and bookmarks are triggered.
Customize Filter Logic: Modify or extend the component to dynamically generate links with the appropriate filter parameters embedded.
Override Template Files: Create overrides for the component's view files to accommodate the new behavior.
If you're not comfortable with this level of coding, consider consulting a Joomla developer with expertise in component customizations.
