MixItUp
What is MixItUp?
MixItUp is a jQuery plugin providing animated filtering and sorting.
MixItUp is great for managing any categorized or ordered content like portfolios, galleries and blogs, but can also function as a powerful tool for engaging application UI and data-visualisation.
Why MixItUp?
MixItUp plays nice with your existing HTML and CSS, making it a great choice for responsive layouts.
Rather than using absolute positioning to control layout, MixItUp is designed to work with your existing inline-flow layout. Want to use percentages, media queries, inline-block, or even flex box? No problem!
Basic Overview
For a getting started guide, tutorials, documentation and support, please visit the MixItUp website at mixitup.kunkalabs.com
A typical MixItUp workflow looks like this:
HTML
Build your container:
<div id="Container">
<div class="mix category-1" data-my-order="1"> ... </div>
<div class="mix category-1" data-my-order="2"> ... </div>
<div class="mix category-2" data-my-order="3"> ... </div>
<div class="mix category-2" data-my-order="4"> ... </div>
</div>
MixItUp targets elements with the class
mix
inside a container. Categories for filtering are added as classes, and sort attributes are added as custom data attributes.
Build your filter controls:
<button class="filter" data-filter=".category-1">Category 1</button>
<button class="filter" data-filter=".category-2">Category 2</button>
Filtering happens when filter buttons are clicked.
Build your sort controls:
<button class="sort" data-sort="my-order:asc">Ascending Order</button>
<button class="sort" data-sort="my-order:desc">Descending Order</button>
Sorting happens when sort buttons are clicked.
CSS
Hide target elements:
#Container .mix{
display: none;
}
In your project's stylesheet, set the display property of target elements to
none
. MixItUp will show only those elements which match the current filter.
JS
Instantiate MixItUp on your container using jQuery:
$(function(){
$('#Container').mixItUp();
});
Using our container's ID, we can instantiate MixItUp with the jQuery method
.mixItUp()

Support & Bugs
Support forums are provided at mixitup.kunkalabs.com/support
We ask that all general support questions and issues are posted there and that GitHub issues be used only for bug-related issues. All non-bug-related issues posted to GitHub will be closed without comment.
- Please be patient while we respond to your questions as we have very limited resources. The support forum is provided as a courtesy to MixItUp users so that knowledge can be shared – support is not guaranteed.
- Please be as detailed as possible when posting. If you can include a link to your project, a CodePen or JSFiddle demo, or a even just a code snippet of your setup, it is much more likely your question will be answered quickly and correctly.
- Do not email KunkaLabs with support questions. All support emails will be ignored.
- If you think you’ve found a bug we encourage you to submit a GitHub Issue rather than posting in the support forums. This way we can keep bugs tracked efficiently and hopefully fix them swiftly.
- When submitting a bug report please provide as much details as possible about your development environment, browser and OS, and the expected vs. resulting behaviour. Please also include any console errors that arise.
- If you can pinpoint the erroneous code even better. Pull requests are always appreciated.
