Blog - Masonery Tiles style Shortcode for VC

stvnalln

Hi,

My client is more used to managing their website using the Visual Composer. Which means I need to replicate the Muffin Buider layouts but using the VC and the Muffin shortcodes for VC.  

I am looking to replicate the Blog - Masonery Tiles style as in the demo http://themes.muffingroup.com/be/journalist/ using the VC.

Is this possible? Can someone advise how this can be done?

Thanks for your help.

Hi,

for this demo, we used Blog item with Masonry Tiles style. The same item with the same style is available for VC plugin.

Thanks!

Thanks for the quick responce.

I cant see the 'Masonry Tiles' style in the VC Plugin Blog item. See screen shot here - https://www.dropbox.com/home/Screenshots?preview=Screenshot+2015-10-16+10.42.10.png

The url you sent does not work but it does not matter. What theme version you use?

The css file says version 10 - I only purchased the theme yesterday

Here's the screen shot again -  https://www.dropbox.com/s/ix0nor2c98ptcgm/Screenshot 2015-10-16 10.42.10.png?dl=0

Are we talking about Blog item from Muffin builder?  Because looks like you are using different item. This is how settings for Muffin Builder Blog item looks like http://pasteboard.co/1pXrFd6q.png

Yep the Blog item from Muffin Buider iin the VC elements. The one highlighted here - https://www.dropbox.com/s/m6f9enarmlsgueq/Screenshot 2015-10-16 13.52.51.png?dl=0

Once the Blog item is selected it opens with 3 style options only like this - https://www.dropbox.com/s/6p30bemcnh6ply5/Screenshot 2015-10-16 13.55.00.png?dl=0

I have uploaded the theme again to see it that fixed the issue. Nope.

I can see also see the array on 1546 in the file Functions/builder/back.php

Very strange

So we recommend to re-install theme files and also please update VC plugin because your files must be corrupted. We checked in few different places and this item does not look the same as on your side.

Just seen there has been a new version 10.1 of the theme updated in TF. 

I have installed this and blog shortcode in the VC works perfectly now.

Thanks so much

One very happy web builder

I spoke too soon.

The VC shortcode works, in that i can now select the Masonry Tile style but it still isn't the same as used in the Muffin Page builder shortcode. The VC shortcode doesn't have the "Filter" feature.

How can i add this also?

Thanks again,

Hi, 

Unfortunatly I cannot provide to the clients development link as the site it's self will not be a public site and contains private/interal information.

Here is the test page on the test domain. http://mymockwebsite.co.uk/test-page/

I realised that when you switch to classic mode editor you can amend the shortcode to include the Filters and Grey Scale option. 

[vc_row full_width="stretch_row_content_no_spaces"][vc_column][blog count="12" style="masonry tiles" columns="4" filters="1" greyscale="1" more="0" pagination="0"][/vc_column][/vc_row]

You must have something cached then if shortcode works fine but you don't see the same option under VC. We remove above details as it is not allowed to leave such details in public section. Next time, if you want to send us access, please do it privately. So, if you will send us private message with access to your dashboard, we'll be able to have a look on it.
