This Plugin is Great and easy to use, i recomend everybody to test/use this plugin! For the developers, THANKS keep the good work going further!!!!

Isotope plugin is NOT free. You should say this in your description instead of FREE ISOTOPE PLUGIN. This is false. You “After installing a3 Portfolio please install and activate the a3 Portfolio Isotope Add-On. It is a FREE Add-On plugin that greatly enhances the Portfolio, Category and Tags page Items main images sort and filtering. It creates a real wow factor with the Portfolios for your site visitors.”

It doesn’t work at all, i have no clue how to add it in page, documentation haven’t mentioned that what exactly the shortcode to use it.
Miyzan 3, 2016
Le plugin pourrait être bien, mais les images n’apparaissent pas. Et quand on va voir, sur le forum, ceux qui ont eu des problèmes identiques, leurs questions sont restées sans réponse… super! Donc, je déconseille ce plugin.
