Portfolio: Filter Content

With the Portfolio widget you can showcase your work and optionally enable visitors to filter the items.

Showcase your work or product features with the Portfolio widget.
Showcase your work or product features with the Portfolio widget.

Different views are available for the content. The default view is a masonry card view made famous by Pinterest.com. Other views include a large image showcase view, a compact view with image, and a simple list view. For the showcase view, the flip_alt_rows option can be set to true to horizontally flip alternate rows - a style which is commonly seen on many popular sites and landing pages that showcase product features by placing large images and text side-by-side.

The widget is configurable in a one or two column structure by setting the columns option.

Associate your pages with tags by placing the tags option in the front matter of your pages (e.g. tags: ["A Tag", "Another Tag"]). The Portfolio widget can then be configured to let visitors filter results by tags. To add a filter button, add or edit a filter_button option (see below), where name is the filter text and tag is the name of the tag to filter by (type * to show all items).

The projects.md section in the demo uses the Portfolio widget.

To show the widget in a section, reference it in your section’s front matter:
