Loop Grid Extender for Elementor Pro helps you add powerful filter options to Elementor’s Loop Grid widget. By default, Loop Grid doesn’t let users filter posts or products easily, that’s where this addon comes in.

It is built specifically for people using Elementor Pro + ACF (Advanced Custom Fields), allowing to add dropdown filters, show how many posts or products are in each category, and even hide terms you don’t want to show.

Think of it as a missing piece that gives Elementor Pro superpowers when working with repeater fields and dynamic layouts.

<h3>USE CASES</h3>
<ul>
<li>Building FAQ or testimonial sections with toggles and pop-ups using ACF repeater data.</li>

<li>Crafting team member directories, event listings, or portfolio galleries with dynamic filter UI.</li>
<li>Multilingual websites requiring term-specific filtering.</li>
</ul>
<h3>From Frustration to Solution</h3>
Elementor users have been requesting native support for ACF Repeater fields in Loop Grids, toggle/accordion widgets, and dynamic pop-ups for years. For example, issue <a href="https://github.com/elementor/elementor/issues/5979" rel="nofollow ugc">#5979</a> on GitHub was opened 6+ years ago, stated:
<blockquote>
“I’m always frustrated when building a dynamic FAQ section using a custom post type with ACF fields and Dynamic Pop‑up. Elementor Pro doesn’t support a repeater functionality yet.”
</blockquote>
<a href="https://github.com/elementor/elementor/issues/5979" rel="nofollow ugc">#5979</a> 
<a href="https://github.com/orgs/elementor/discussions/23185" rel="nofollow ugc">#23185</a>
Despite some advances, Elementor still lacks an intuitive way to:
<ul>
<li>Populate toggles, pop-ups, or loop templates with ACF repeater data, without custom PHP.</li>
<li>Add flexible filter UI (dropdowns or checkboxes) with taxonomy and post-count controls.</li>
</ul>
Our plugin directly addresses these gaps.
