    Under Post Loop Builder, there is a 'Sortable Filter' function. Does this filter function works for custom post type as well?

    Hi Alexa,

    Thanks for writing back.

    To assist you better, we'd love to have a closer look at your setup and to do this, we'll need admin login credentials 

    (dashboard URL, username, password) to your site. This will enable us to conduct a more in-depth investigation of the issue based on your specific configurations. Would you mind sharing this with us? 

    If you prefer, you can safely share the access through an access plugin such as Controlled Admin Access.

    Before you provide this information, we strongly recommend backing up your site.

    If you have any concerns or questions about this process, please don't hesitate to let me know.

    Best regards,

    Hi Alexa,

    Thanks for writing back.

    Your custom post types should have taxonomies such as tags to enable the filter to be displayed since the filter displays categories that are used to group the posts.

    I hope this clarifies your query.

    If you have any more questions or run into any problems, please feel free to reach out.

    Best regards,

    yes i did add taxonomies and categories. 

    did you login to the page to see? the filtering just didnt display out.

    When im using custom post type (not using blog post/portfolio), it just doesnt have options like 'project/blog categories', 'Enable Sortable', 'Sortable Filters Alignment' in the post loop builder settings.

    Thanks i had updated to the latest version.

    But i also realised another issue was because im using carousel for the display type. The filters only works for grid type. It also doesn't work if we choose Masonry Layout.
