Image Overlays

You can choose between 8 different Layouts for the Image Overlay Buttons, or simply use none, it's your choice. Also full color-primary and Appearance Control for the Overlay Buttons.

Disable Filters

It's also possible to disable the Filter Bar completely, so you can use the Portfolio as a simple Grid System to display important things, but without filter.

Disable show all

This was also a customer request. Now you can disable the Show all Button, this can be useful when your Joomla Portfolio starts directly with Filter 2 for example.

Sorting Buttons

You can enable or disable the Sorting Buttons to give your customers the possibility to reorder the Portfolio. Also you can choose Icon or Text for the Buttons when active.

Shuffle Button

It's more fun then useful, but if wanted, you can activate the Shuffle Button, on Click the Portfolio Items get shuffled. Really useless but looking great.

Gutter Width

In the Backend you now have full control over the Gutter Width, you can set the Margin for the Values in the Backend by simply changing the Pixels for the Items.

Asc or Desc

Your Items can be shown in ascending or descending order. Simply change it in the Backend, that's all.

Original or random

Also it's possible to change the ordering for the Items in Frontend this way: Sort Original Order means they will show like the order in Backend or they should be random each time.

Preloader

If you have a lot of Images in the Portfolio we have included a small Preloader Function, it will fade away when all images are loaded. Also you can setup your own custom preloader Image.

Plugin and Modules

This time you have on each item the content prepare function from Joomla, now you can load other Modules and Plugins in the Portfolio Items. But keep in mind, nothing with dynamic content!

Transition time

You have full control over the Transition time of the whole Portfolio. When the Filtering or sorting of the Items is too slow for you, enter a higher Value.

Animation

It's possible to animate the Items when they become visible, you have all effects from animate.css and you can simply choose one in the Backend of the Joomla Portfolio.

RTL Layout

We have also made some basic settings that you can use the Joomla Portfolio on RTL Sites, not all is done as we are no experts with RTL but the hardest things are done.

SEF URL's

This Module should work with every other Component to create awesome SEF URL's, means you can simply Link the Portfolio to another Article and the Article will get a SEO ready SEF URL.

Highlight on Click

A great Feature for highlighting a Item and make it larger. When you click a Item, it will get double size or full width size. This is also full controlable over the Backend.

Toggle Content

There are 3 Layouts with a Toggle Function, similar to a Accordion. Try the Demo 1 to see what we mean. Also you have 10 predefined Layouts for the Toggle Icons.

Disable Items

You can also create Portfolio Items and temporarily disable them and when your Project is done, one click to activate and it's shown.

Own CSS

In the Backend there is a CSS Area where you can easily add your own CSS for the Portfolio, this field can override all the default CSS, best of all, it will be automatically compressed.

Custom Classes

You can give each Item a individual CSS Class, so if you have some small skills in CSS, you can give each Item other color-primarys, other Fonts, other Paddings and much much more easily.

Icon Fonts

It's possible to load Font Awesome Icon Font or Simple Line Icon Font and define the Version which will be loaded. So you are always up to date. Or disable it when your Template already loads a Version.

jQuery Control

For default jQuery loading is disabled as it's loaded by Joomla 3 for default. But if you run into problems, you can also load a copy of jQuery to the Module.

Load Scripts only

This Feature can be useful if you want for example use the Lightbox of the Joomla Portfolio Module on another Page. With this option, only CSS and Scripts will be loaded, but no output.

Access Control

This Joomla Portfolio Module use the default Joomla Access Control, individual for each Item. So you can hide some Portfolio Items for Users which aren't registerd. Build a extended Portfolio for registered users only.

Multiple Portfolios
