I created a video where I explain the process:

## Buttons

**Step 1:**

Click on the grey gear icon to access the Button Settings (on the button, that you want to filter with). You can also use images, or any other element to trigger the filtering. It doesn’t have to be a button module.

**Step 2:**

Go to Advanced → CSS ID & Classes → CSS Class. Here you add the **df-button** class.

**Step 3:**

Additionally add any category that you want to filter with that button like that: **`dfc-[your category]`** e.g. `dfc-cats`.

{% hint style="info" %}
Buttons have to be in a separate section, than your filterable elements. Or you add the **df-buttons** class to your button row (Premium features).
{% endhint %}

## Section

**Step 1:**

Click on blue gear icon to access the Section Settings.

## Column

**Step 1:**

Click on green gear icon to access the Row Settings.

**Step 2:**

In the Row Settings click on the gear icon the access the Column Settings.

I have a four column row, so I see four columns in the Row Settings.

**Step 3:**

Go to Advanced → CSS ID & Classes → CSS Class.

Here you add all the **dfc-\[your category]** class you want e.g. your **dfc-cats** class.

**Step 4:**

Do that for all Columns you want to make filterable.
