Brilliant and really valuable! If you want to maintain a nice look on your site your method works best. I found that the two templates are needed. It works with one template as well, but when you click on a category the system throws you to an ugly self-generated page as you mentioned. With your method you form your page as needed and maintain a perfect look. Million thanks for this and all your efforts! 😊
really nice Imran!!! the ironic thing is though the Portfolio widget will accept posts and has a filter bar option but the actual Posts widget does not and we need to do all this lol 🤣
Thank you so much Imran for this helpful video. I was wondering though if this method could also be applied to a loop grid not just the post widget, somewhat as you described in your other recent video « Loop Filter with Nested tabs », but using the menu widget instead of the nested tabs widget.
Perfect! This is just what I've been looking for. Greatly appreciate the concise but comprehensive explanation. I can attest that it's idiot-proof, because even I could do this.
Good video! Just a heads up, idk why but i had to add a non-default "Category Base" text in "Settings -> Permalinks -> Category Base". Default was just a dot (.) and i had to change this to something else.
Hi there, thank you for the informative video, it really saved my life :) Though I tried to insert the template back into my main blogs page and it became all messed up - the post contents started showing up underneath the blog widget column (Blog filters template). Do you have any suggestions on how to fix it? Thanks so much in advance !!
Hello and thank you for this very clear tutorial. I see in my version of elementor (3.23.4) that the post widget is part of the paid version. Perhaps this has changed between the time your video was uploaded and today? Can you confirm this? Thanks :-)
This worked great. Thanks for the super clear explanation. I have one question. Is there an easy way to filter by two categories at once? For example, I'm currently able to filter by diet type (vegan, vegetarian, etc.) or meal type (lunch, dinner, dessert, etc.) separately. However, I'd like to be able to filter by diet type and meal type at the same time. So, Ideally I have a drop-down for each category and can select items from both and it would direct me to another page with those query results. Hope that makes sense. Thanks so much for the video!
@@websquadron Thanks so much for your reply. I'd been doing some research and that's the solution I kept landing on. Thanks so much for confirming, and for the suggestion. I appreciate your time.
I've set my 'Layout>number of posts to 9'. But it just displays 3 posts at a time for 'Blog filter Results' ? I've noticed at 1.25seconds your settings are also the same! Is there a way around this? Would really appreciate your input and also fabulous video. Really helped me in my new job :)
Hello, this tutorial is fantastic! I have a problem, I follow all the steps, I create the 2 templates, but how can I apply the operation on a page? In the video the test is done in the same template and it works there, but copy the file to a page and have it work? For example, I have a page called "blog", there I drag the Archive widget, and it doesn't work. I have tried to copy the shortcode from the first template, and it doesn't work either. Thank you so much !!
I would switch to using GridBuilder WP now, or wait until Elementor bring out there own filter system. I'd need to look at your pages more but that falls under 1-2-1 consultancy.
That's amazing. No code no plugin. Maybe the only cons is that you load a new page and if the website is not fast enough the UX could be affected. Anyway, it is worth it.
Exactly. But I am glad that we now have the Elementor Taxonomy Filter for their Loop Grid. It's not perfect but the Taxonomy Filter would be a better solution.
This is so brilliant! But I encountered a question and don't know why. I cannot find an "archive" type when I try to build a new template. Do you know what's wrong with it :( I REALLY need your help. Thx a lot
ciao hello, great video. I would like to ask you if it is possible to do something like this without elementor pro, and then with one of the plugins you can find
Great video and work like a charm. Would you know how to exclude a post category ? I organise that my blog and portfolio are all post. I have an archive for the all blog then one only for portfolio. So I don't need to play within the pages.
Hey! Great tutorial! Only issue is that when you change the Source in the Query section, it then loses the pagination which should appear under the posts! Do you have a fix for this?
@@websquadron I have Pro now, but the NAV MENU isn't showing. Is this a common problem. ive got the blocksy theme. Is that maybe due to the blocksy theme that it isn't compatible? Thankssss!
I could not make two templates if All-Archives with the different filters, example page Appl filter menu: 1 All - iPhone - iMac - example page SAMSUNG filter menu: 2 All - Galaxy Ultra - Flib - when I create 2 All-Archives it work conflict Any Solutions?
hey Imran, i'm kinda wondering if this only work on the original post archive of wordpress or wordpress elementor? I am trying to create a category filter for my event post which was created using ACF but I followed everything on your video except using my event post archive, but whenever i use the filter and click the filter menu, it just goes to a blank page and doesn't actually filter anything even my event filter has their own category. What do you think is the problem? Thanks in advance for all your helpful tutorials.
My layout has a large header graphic above the category menus - which I added on the archive template. When user select a category filter - it works correctly, and goes to the cat page - but user now has to scroll back down mid-page to see the posts. Is there a way to have it "jump down" x amount of pixels when a category menu button is clicked? OR a way to make it update with Ajax? thanks again!
Thanks for the video, it was brilliant. What if I have two main categories with their own under categories to display in two different archives page? thx for your attention.
Thanks for the video. Its an awesome work around however, when I click on the categories we have created the page refreshes and the wordpress header, logo and menu appear. Is there any way to prevent that? I want it to show my elementor menu and header
Hey! This worked so great for me till yesterday when all of a sudden it has stopped loading in the templates in the live page so I only get header footer and blank in body section. When checking editor it works as well is in preview mode but not in live mode. I used ACF pro to create custom post types and taxonomies and used polylang to translate them. It worked just great for weeks so I'm confused what I could have done to it?
@@websquadron Thanks for the reply! Can't say I have any of those. For these kinds of reasons I prefer optimizing at the end of the build and the template doesn't have anything but a title, the filter nav, and the loop widget that displays the posts/results. It's almost like Elementor doesn't know what to fill out the template with. I'm thinking of trying a filter plugin instead so maybe I can just build this on an actual page instead of using templates.
@@websquadron Update: before investing time in a new plugin I thought I would delete the archive templates and try to recreate them from scratch and it did the trick. I don't what must have gone wrong but it works now so I'll try and not touch it lol.
Great tutorial but ince we have created the archive, how do we add it to a specific page because we have 2 blog pages: Employer Blog & Job Seeker Blog. So if we follow this video we will have to create 4 archives whcih is fine but I cant figure out how to add them to the 2 seperate blog sections.
I'm curious as to the effect of the algorithms from the google camp though, we all know if they find (what they think) is duplicate content, then they bash the stuffing out of your (score, if you like). I can see the worth of doing it vs adding yet another plugin but.... just a curious point.
Hi Imran! Thanks for an excellent tutorial. I followed your instructions on my blog and I think I got this working correctly. However, I have a question. Should this technique work without the browser reloading when we select a category from the nav menu? Or does this allow AJAX filter for posts? Currently my browser reloads and the URL changes when I click my categories. I'm just wondering if I got this working properly. Thanks!
Hi. Yes, this is a hack-trick way of doing it, and it's not a proper Ajax method. I did do another video with a Blog Filter Plugin that would enable the Ajax facility. I'm hoping that Elementor bring out an inbuilt Blog and Product Filter system.
@@websquadron Oh I see. This is a nice technique anyways and works very well. You are right. It would be great if Elementor had the filter system for blog posts and products.
Hello Imran, I have been binge-watching all your videos, I have a quick question: to make it responsive for mobile version - i don't want to have the hamburger icon rather a horizontal scroll of the categories - how can i do it? Thank you soo much!
@@websquadron Hey Imran, sorry to trouble you again! Creating the filter this way is refreshing the page every time I click on the category at the top - which can be a little annoying sometimes - is there a way to not refresh it. I have plugins to do it, but wanted to know if there is a way in Elementor itrself
great but question- how would i make an initial category page so when someone clicks blog it goes to a category page listing different categories like "news" or "finances" etc and then when someone clicks on a category, it goes to this page with that category highlighted?
Is there also a way to display the category name above the selected category? So for example, when I have selected All products it says all product above the products, when I select Tools, the H1 above switches from All products to Tools. Is that possible? And how?
Can you create like this for multiple categories? ex. Blog page > all , dummy , fake , sample. And then Companies page > with different nav and different posts and filter them the same?
Okay I followed everything and it works! But how do you make it look like you stay on the same page? I'm trying to get that to work but i failed so far :(
I'm running into an issue with this. It works perfectly for one menu and post type. I have a site with two unique post types (taxonomy), and I want to allow the user to filter them as well. The problem I'm running into is even if I create a new menu for the second set and place it on a page since there is a template built and tagged with "all archives", the new page filters just point to the "all archives" template. I hope I'm explaining that correctly. Any ideas? (SUMMARY - Page 1 - Menu A for standard posts. Templates built based on Menu A and "All Archives" tagged on one. Page 2 - Menu B for special post taxonomy. When a menu item is clicked, it goes to the template tagged with "All Archives" and the results aren't shown.)
I am using 'Archive Posts' instead of 'Posts'(what you used). In Archive Posts there is no option to change the query. Is there any way around that or do i have to use posts instead. Thanks
Estou usando o plugin PODS para além dos post de blos, utilizar para mostrar eventos. Até o momento não encontrei uma solução. Testou o filtro com CPT? Obrigado
This could be a great solution but I am missing something. When I add the template to a page and I go to that page the page is blank. I need to click on the menu to get a result set. Can anyone tell me what am I missing? It would be useful to have all items when I first go to the page. Thank you
Hey Imran! I have made a filter menu based on your video and the filter itself works as it should. the problem occurs when I have made a dropdown menu and designed it. For now, I have designed the dropdown menu, but when I click on a category, the design I have made disappears. Hope you understand what I mean and can help me with the problem
@@Gosvigchr Depends on how you've built it, and then you'll have to not have it in a dropdown. This method may not be the best for what you are trying to achieve.
I followed every step of the tutorial, I watched it several times and followed its steps, but in the end, the filter did not work as expected. When clicking on the nav menu it will forward to a different page. One nav item will forward to the homepage, another one to the same page but without the navbar and another nav item will forward to a different page of my website. What am I doing wrong?
This is exactly what I'm looking for but when I go to insert the template into my page it only loads the menu and not the posts. When I view the template it shows both the menu and the posts. What am I doing wrong?
Did you add the Posts Widget? You may have added the Archive Widget. Add the Posts widget beneath your current widget, and then copt and paste the style.
Why do you have to select all post first? What if you want to filter for course archives as well through tutor LMS? Shouldnt you just select all archives
For some reason, the filtering is not working! I've checked all the steps multiple times but still, it's not working. Instead, it's showing me all the results. Can you please point me in the right direction? Thanks!
You are my hero... but... yes there's a but (ekkk human error I assure you)... How do I add this to an already created 'Blog' Page that's been styled independently on a website? I attempted to add the 'template' as a container on the page and it didn't work.
No you changed the default appereance of the WP Post List. And this is a huge side effect. And I don't understand why you need the first template at all. It works also without your first template. All Archives are now appear with the layout created here - and that is stupid - sorry.

One nav item will forward to the homepage, another one to the same page but without the navbar and another nav item will forward to a different page of my website. What am I doing wrong?
Difficult to answer without seeing your site. Best to use the new EL Taxonomy widget instead
In your video, when you click on the categories the page refreshes and then show the items.
I don't use this now as it's a hack way of doing it without plugins.
Use the new Taxonomy filter.
This is exactly what I'm looking for but when I go to insert the template into my page it only loads the menu and not the posts. When I view the template it shows both the menu and the posts. What am I doing wrong?
Better to use the new EL Taxonomy filter now. This is an old video.
I want to make a blog post filter without refreshing the page. How can I do that using Elementor Pro.

Use the new Taxonomy filter.
I create that but pages reload on every time when I change category page. I need something dynamic "like no page reload"
Then you need to use Gridbuilder.
Free methods often require page reloads.
Some have AJAX but then creativity is stifled.
This is so great, but I don't have the option Current query. What do I do wrong? I follow the steps exactly..
Did you add the Posts Widget? You may have added the Archive Widget. Add the Posts widget beneath your current widget, and then copt and paste the style.
Why do you have to select all post first? What if you want to filter for course archives as well through tutor LMS? Shouldnt you just select all archives

Mine not filtering on the page. It's taking me to a new page with the results. How do I fix that?
Use the new EL Taxonomy filter now
For some reason, the filtering is not working! I've checked all the steps multiple times but still, it's not working. Instead, it's showing me all the results. Can you please point me in the right direction? Thanks!
Try the new taxonomy filter with EL.

Is it possible that this does not work with loop grids?
I wouldn’t use it.
Elementor have the new post filter coming out very soon
It works fine within the template, but when I want to publish that template as a page, it doesn't work well anymore.
I would use the new Elementor Taxonomy Filter now
You are my hero... but... yes there's a but (ekkk human error I assure you)... How do I add this to an already created 'Blog' Page that's been styled independently on a website? I attempted to add the 'template' as a container on the page and it didn't work.
I wouldn’t use this method anymore.
Use the taxonomy filter added by Elementor.
Activate it in the Features.

Are you building this in a template?
The Sitemap Widget can be hacked to do the same thing ainna?
Never tried it
Although I have made this for my client bt still I was wondering how we can do this... then I remembered oh.. I actually have done this before😂😂😂😂😅😅😅😅
This is a grat video but there is a big problem when switching on mobile mode.
Mobile friendly?
Better to use the new EL Taxonomy filter
how to add drop down filter for free on post loop grid or product loop grid ?
Would need some JS and CSS.
@@websquadron do you have any code for this ?
No you changed the default appereance of the WP Post List. And this is a huge side effect. And I don't understand why you need the first template at all. It works also without your first template. All Archives are now appear with the layout created here - and that is stupid - sorry.
This was a hack from a long time ago. Since July 2023 you should be using the Taxonomy Filter.
