How to make the Filter to work
Portfolio
Filter items are the portfolio categories in fact. Go to “Portfolio > Categories”, you need to create a main category, like Works(below screenshot) is parent category of other categories, and all portfolios would be assigned to main category. The sub-categories should be assigned to related portfolios also, then sub-categories will be shown as the filter items. The category structure looks like:
Please make sure that the parent category(like the “Works” category) is selected in the Grid module.
The filter rule of Post and WooCommerce Product are the same.
Media Library
Please don’t set the parent category for the “Media library” source. Please go to “Media > Library” to set categories for the images within the Grid(and Masonry Grid):
It will directly list all categories as the filter items.

Align: Center 
Align: Left in Grid
