AD Pro Portfolio Grid · Professional portfolio grids for WordPress
See pricing
The WordPress portfolio plugin for creatives who refuse to compromise. AJAX filtering, pinned projects, full visual control — without touching a line of code.
Built for real WordPress sites
I needed a WordPress portfolio plugin that did exactly what I wanted. I couldn't find one. So I built it.
I'm a freelance brand designer and art director with over 15 years of experience. My WordPress portfolio is my main showcase. It's the first thing clients see, and it decides whether we end up working together or not.
Like most designers who use WordPress, I tried the existing solutions. They were either too simple, giving no visual control, or overengineered monsters dependent on an entire page builder. None of them let you choose exactly which projects show up first. None synced the filter state with the URL. None let you configure a different rendering depending on the context, without duplicating the whole setup.
AD Pro Portfolio Grid is the plugin I wish I'd found. It runs on my own WordPress site. Every feature exists because I needed it to present my work properly: AJAX filtering to move between categories with no reload, pinning projects to keep the most relevant ones at the top of the grid, per-grid overrides to adapt the rendering to each context without starting from scratch.
If you're a designer, developer or agency managing WordPress portfolios, this plugin was built with your real-world constraints in mind.
What sets it apart
Four features you won't find in most WordPress portfolio plugins — or only in much more complex solutions.
Control exactly which projects show up first, independent of publish date or sort order. Type in the search field, select a project in one click, then drag and drop to reorder. Your best work at the top of the grid, page 1.
Most portfolio plugins reload the page when filtering or changing pages. AD Pro does it with AJAX: instant, smooth, no flash. The grid updates in place, the URL stays in sync, and browser history works normally.
The filter state lives in the URL. Share a filtered view, bookmark it, or send a link straight to a category of projects. The grid opens with the right filter already active.
Colors, sizes, weights, radii, shadows and spacing configurable from the admin. No custom CSS, no child theme. Elementor and Bricks users will feel right at home.
Features
Everything a designer needs to showcase their work on WordPress, in a single plugin.
Set global defaults once. Override colors, typography, spacing, layout and behavior independently on each grid. One plugin, unlimited looks. No CSS, no child theme.
Most WordPress plugins look like abandoned government software. The grid builder is structured, labeled and responsive. Set up a grid in a few minutes.
Native lazy loading on every image. Intersection Observer for mobile visibility. Cache-busting on AJAX requests. Tested with WP Rocket, LiteSpeed, W3TC and CloudFlare. The grid won't slow down your site.
Insert any saved grid from the block editor via a dropdown. Or use the shortcode anywhere: classic editor, page builders, widgets. Every setting available as an inline attribute.
Card, Overlay and Simple. Three distinct layouts covering most use cases: agencies, photographers, architects, freelancers. Mix styles across grids on the same site.
Scoped CSS that doesn't interfere with your theme. Works with Blocksy, Astra, Kadence, GeneratePress, Hello, Bricks, Elementor and any block theme.
