The above hook worked perfectly.

I still could’t remove the title with the filter but I just removed it via CSS.

Thanks for the help!

Thanks, this worked great!

For the record, I just made the one small change from mc4wp_form to mc4wp_checkbox for my example.

Not Mike but I did this for my site as well. I’m not sure if there is a shortcode option for this (doubt it) but you can easily exclude a category from your blog feed by editing the loop. Explained here:

Hi,

The first step is to create a post for each download. Add the downloadable file to the post by using the “add media” button. I then assigned a category of”download” to these posts and (optional) excluded that category from my blog loop so it wouldn’t show up in my regular blog feed. Once you have all of your download posts, then create a new page and just pass the category argument (as well as any other options) you like in the shortcode like so:

[wp-tiles category=”download”]

This will create a WP-tile grid with one tile for each download. Every new download category post will show in the future as well. Surely other ways of doing it but this worked for me.

Oh, and to add I didn’t try to link to pages outside of wordpress so not sure if that is possible.

Best,
Stephen

You are right. Nice catch! I searched for “footer” and “display:none” in my css but didn’t catch this change from an old theme. I must have copy and pasted this over to my new theme’s css which wasn’t smart.

Thanks so much @alchymyth!

Sorry thought I did that already. Should be open now….

The hubpost library was set up so that the thumbnails linked to pages (or posts). Then on those pages you could download the media. I was imagining it that way. You could also set up the tiles to look very simple with spacing between them if you increase the padding and set grids=”plain”. That would like almost identical to the hubspot library page. If you want to have two categories, you set up two separate grids and call for only the page/post ids you want included in that grid.

Now, I don’t know much about custom search options but it sounds like with some digging that should be possible. Lastly, don’t be intimidated by coding. It is well worth a few days to at least learning the basics at codecademy or other free online tutorials. Like you said, you will need to customize eventually.

Hi,

You could accomplish this with WP-Tiles. Each “tile” could be a link to a page showing whatever the download is: ebook, video, pdf, etc. This is an example of the shortcode you’ll need (obviously change page ids to whatever yours are):

[wp-tiles post_type=page id=75,77,79]

You’ll need to read through the documentation here to understand but its pretty straightforward:

This can even display very similar hover animations with title, description.
Very powerful and flexible plug-in.

Good Luck
