Hi,

I am trying to make a custom template using isotope:

isotope.metafizzy.co/demos/combination-filters.html

Now - I have worked out how to have the lists display good:

Code:

$li_item_classes .= ' '.$items[$i]->fields['engine_size']->display;

So, the li have the required properties:

Code:

<li id="blogitem-1" class="50cc keeway">

However, at the top of the page I want to display the filters.

[attachment=0:3lywewhv]filter.png[/attachment:3lywewhv]

So it would output like:

Code:

<div class="option-combo size">
      <h4>size</h4>
      <ul class="filter option-set clearfix " data-filter-group="size"> 
        <li>[url=#filter-size-any" data-filter-value="" class="selected]any[/url]
        
          <li>[url=#filter-size-50cc" data-filter-value=".50cc]50cc[/url]
        
          <li>[url=#filter-size-150cc" data-filter-value=".150cc]150cc[/url]
                
      </ul>
    </div>

Where "size" is the field name?
Where "150cc" is the label name?

What php values do I need to populate this list?

I have tried editing "listings_filter_form_body.php" but no luck... How can I pull these values without getting a php error?

Ideas?

Robert

Hello,
there is no need to make some custom since
filters can be display like toggle buttons, and then you can use CSS to style them

please edit the fields used as filters and go and se parameter "Display Filter as" to be
- either "single toggle buttons" (allows one value active per filter)
- or "multi toggle buttons" (allows multiple values active per filter)

then style your output via CSS
