This is the best post and taxonomy filter plugin I have seen. It removes your need to create a post layout for the results as its own grid is very well thought out. And it works much faster than an expensive filter plugin I had purchased recently.

Excellent plugin with a wide range of customisation options. It’s incredibly comprehensive and covers just about everything you’d need. The documentation is clear, and the instructions are easy to follow, even for more advanced features. Highly recommended!
