Loop Grid Extender for Elementor Pro

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.

KEY FEATURES

• ACF Repeater Field Support with Elementor Pro: Directly use ACF Pro’s Repeater fields inside Elementor Pro’s dynamic widgets through the Loop Grid widget. It means you can display complex, repeated content without writing any code.

• Dropdown Display for Filters: You can easily filter posts or products by categories, tags, or custom taxonomies using dropdown menus.

• Post/Product Count Display: Display the number of posts or products available next to each filter option, helping visitors quickly see how many items are in each category before they choose to filter.

• Exclude Specific Taxonomies or Terms: Exclude unwanted taxonomy terms like “Uncategorized” or any other custom terms from the filter list.

• Custom Post Type & ACF Taxonomy Support: The plugin fully supports custom post types and taxonomies created with ACF, ensuring that all your unique content types work with the filtering system.

• Multilingual + Multi-taxonomy (Pro): Build complex, language-aware filters across categories, tags, and custom taxonomies.

• Responsive, Optimized, Code-free: Lightweight scripts, clean markup, and mobile-first design ensure performance.

USE CASES

• Building FAQ or testimonial sections with toggles and pop-ups using ACF repeater data.
• Creating WooCommerce product grids with filters for size, color, and brand.
• Crafting team member directories, event listings, or portfolio galleries with dynamic filter UI.
• Multilingual websites requiring term-specific filtering.

From Frustration to Solution

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 #5979 on GitHub was opened 6+ years ago, stated:

“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.”

#5979
#23185

Despite some advances, Elementor still lacks an intuitive way to:

• Populate toggles, pop-ups, or loop templates with ACF repeater data, without custom PHP.
• Add flexible filter UI (dropdowns or checkboxes) with taxonomy and post-count controls.

Our plugin directly addresses these gaps.
