@Graeme, are you sure that your code is working? add an alert(“test”) into the .click functino to see if its working anyway.

if you have the working site for it too somewhere online, someone could debug it better. see ya.

Ahh, you made need to tweak your jQuery slightly. As you mentioned, the script only proceeds if the button doesn’t have a class of selected.

You’ll need to switch the classes on the click like this — http://jsfiddle.net/92C7Y/

Great tut – thanks – so far i’ve got everything working but i’ve detected an interest bug. As i cycle between my different category filters, i can only click on each one once – after that it stops functioning. I’ve located this to the “selected” class that gets added to to the active category link. When i click to a new link, the old .selected class stays on the previous link, while also adding to the new. Eventually they’re all classed selected and no filter works. Any thoughts on how to fix this?

You can use any loop you like, it’s not really important. The key parts are to have a container for the all the posts and for each post to have a class. You use these to tell Isotope what you want to filter (this is on lines 4 & 9 of the jQuery I posted above).

I’d suggest doing some experimentation with the Isotope library first using their documentation, once that makes sense it fairly straight forward to adapt it for WordPress.

this is great and really helped a lot, but i’m wondering the same, i’m having a big trouble to implement it on the loop. seems nothing works :\
If anyone has been successfully doing it can you please share the files?

Once again Thanks a lot :)

Hi Merlin,

I would like to know if I can get some help from you to develop a calendar with isotope.

What I would like to do is to filter events by:
All Dates
Today
This Week
This Month

Could you please give me any advice or maybe contact me to my email, so maybe we can make an exchange or a small discussion?

Thanks
