     I have a few questions regarding its functionalities.

    Filtering Specialists and Specialties: Does the theme provide any built-in functionality for filtering specialists and specialties? I am looking to create a directory where users can search and filter by specialties through a text input field.

    Filtering Specialists by Name: Additionally, I would like to know if it is possible to filter specialists by name within the same directory.

    These filtering capabilities are crucial for my project, and I would greatly appreciate any details you can provide on whether "TheGem" supports these features or if there are recommended plugins or methods to achieve this.

    Thank you for your assistance. I look forward to your response.

    Hi, 

    Thank you for your request. 

    "Filtering Specialists and Specialties": yes, sure, kindly check this steps, documentation and video tutorials: 

    In short: 

    1. create your own custom post types like "Specialists", "Specialties" using ACF plugin (learn more about custom post types https://docs.codex-themes.com/category/590-custom-post-types-cpt )

    2. use TheGem custom fields feature or ACF plugin to add specific fields to these custom post types like "name", "occupation", "location" etc. (learn more https://docs.codex-themes.com/article/594-how-to-add-custom-fields-to-cpts )

    (you can also check this video tutorial on how to create CPT and add dynamic fields with ACF: https://docs.codex-themes.com/article/661-video-tutorial-cpts )

    3. use "Posts Extended Grid" to display your custom post types on a page (for example a list of all Specialists) (learn more about Posts Extended Grid here: https://docs.codex-themes.com/article/116-extended-grid )

    4. Add "Grid Filter" element to this page with the list of your custom post type (Specialists) and configure its filtering fields (learn more https://docs.codex-themes.com/article/654-grid-filter )

    Additionally you can take advantage of using Loop Item template builder to create designs for your custom post type posts showing in your list to add dynamic fields and extra information to each item in a loop, kindly check this tutorial: https://docs.codex-themes.com/category/645-loop-item-builder )

    Hi, no, ACF plugin is free. They offer ACF Pro extension as well (it is premium), but no need for this in the described setup.

    Hi, 

    thank you for explanation. Unfortunately there is no such functionality in theme as built-in option. If you wish we can make an individual paid customization for you. Please let me know in case of your interest so we can share a quote for this custom work.

    Hi, 

    these taxonomy terms are sorted by default in WordPress according to IDs. You can change this order and make a custom order using for example these plugin https://en-gb.wordpress.org/plugins/custom-taxonomy-order-ne/
