Breakdance includes built-in support for the Gridbuilder WP plugin. Gridbuilder WP (or WP Grid Builder) is a paid plugin allowing advanced WordPress content filtering and sorting of Loop elements within Breakdance.
The Gridbuilder WP integration adds several new options within Breakdance. For more information on how to set up Facets in Gridbuilder WP, please refer to their documentation.
Start by adding the Gridbuilder WP Facet element to the page or template where the Loop element is in Breakdance. Then, select the Gridbuilder WP Facet you wish to use for filtering.
Note: Facets will only show on the front end. In Breakdance, you’ll see the following message: “WPGB’s facet will appear here on the frontend.”
Select the Loop element you want to add filtering to after you’ve added your Filter element(s) to Breakdance. At the bottom of the Properties Pane, open the Gridbuilder WP section and toggle the Enable Gridbuilder WP control to “On.”
The Loop element should now properly filter on the front end based on the criteria set by Gridbuilder WP.
Note: you may only filter one Loop element on a page.
When Gridbulder WP is enabled for a Loop element, Breakdance’s default pagination is disabled. You’ll want to add a facet with the Load Content action below the Loop element to add pagination.
