About Filterable Post Gallery
From the official readme · v1.1.0Description
Filterable Post Gallery adds a Gutenberg block that turns your posts or WooCommerce products into a filterable grid with category filter buttons — no page builder, no shortcodes, no manually adding gallery items one by one.
Pick a post type, pick a taxonomy, and the block builds the gallery for you. Publish a new post or product and the grid updates automatically. Visitors click filter buttons (e.g. All, Design, Development, T-Shirts) to instantly narrow down what they see.
Common uses
- Filterable portfolio — show projects filtered by type, straight from a custom post type or categories
- WooCommerce product gallery — display products in a clean grid with product-category filter buttons, without touching your shop templates
- Blog post grid with filters — let readers browse articles by category or tag instead of scrolling archives
- Team, services, or resources pages — anything organized by a taxonomy works
Features
- Content-driven — cards are generated from published posts or products; edit the source once and the gallery stays in sync
- Filter by any taxonomy — categories, tags, WooCommerce product categories, or any registered custom taxonomy
- Two layouts — full card (image, title, excerpt) or image-only grid for visual portfolios
- Color controls in the editor — button background/text/hover/active states, card background, title, and excerpt colors
- Posts per page — show 2–16 items per gallery
- Automatic placeholders — posts without a featured image still look consistent
- Multiple galleries per page — each block keeps its own settings
- Cached queries — results are cached with transients and invalidated automatically on save, so the block stays light even on busy sites
- Responsive grid — works on mobile, tablet, and desktop out of the box
How it works
- Add the Filterable Post Gallery block to any page or post
- Choose the source: posts or WooCommerce products
- Choose the taxonomy used for the filter buttons
- Adjust layout, colors, and posts per page
- Publish — new content matching your settings appears in the grid automatically
Video demo
Filterable Post Gallery vs. a normal gallery or query block
The core Gallery block requires adding and reordering images by hand, and the Query Loop block has no visitor-facing filter buttons. This block combines both: a query-driven grid plus one-click front-end filtering, configured entirely inside the block editor.

Frequently asked questions
Does it work with WooCommerce?
Yes. Select Products as the source and Product categories (or any product taxonomy) for the filter buttons. WooCommerce itself is only required if you want to display products; the block works with regular posts without it.
Can I filter by tags or a custom taxonomy?
Yes. Any taxonomy registered on your site can power the filter buttons — categories, tags, product categories, or custom taxonomies added by other plugins.
Can I show only images without titles and excerpts?
Yes. Switch the layout to image-only mode for a visual portfolio-style grid.
Does filtering reload the page?
No. Filtering happens instantly on the front end when a visitor clicks a button.
Can I add more than one gallery to a page?
Yes. Each block instance has independent source, taxonomy, layout, and color settings.
Will it slow down my site?
Queries are cached using WordPress transients and the cache is cleared automatically when content is saved. The front end loads only a small script and stylesheet.
What happens if I deactivate the plugin?
Your content is untouched. Galleries fall back to plain post lists without the filter buttons; no posts or products are modified or deleted.
