Tell us what you are trying to do? Customise an archive page for a custom post type but the results show up for 1 second then disappear.

What is the link to your site? hidden link

Hi, you mentioned that the results show up then disappear. Are you referring to these 3 lines of text?
- What can you do with a psychology degree
- Criminology Degree
- What can you do with a biology degree

If so, this text is still on the page but hidden because of some CSS styles. The parent container holding this text is a div that is set to height: 0, and overflow:hidden, so the text isn't visible and you cannot scroll to it. I'm attaching a screenshot here showing what happens when I use the browser developer tools to temporarily disable overflow:hidden on the parent container. I was able to track this overflow property down to some JavaScript in a minified file that sets up isotope on page load.

Can you share the code you have used in your WP Archive?

[StanleyT8485]

Yes, that's right.

How can we prevent the isotope from loading height: 0px or overflow: hidden?

Here is the code:

[wpv-layout-start]
	[wpv-items-found]
	<!-- wpv-loop-start -->
	<table width="100%" class="wpv-loop js-wpv-loop">
	<wpv-loop wrap="4" pad="true">
		[wpv-item index=1]
		<tr>
			<td>
				[wpv-post-body view_template="loop-item-in-degrees-archive"]
			</td>
		[wpv-item index=other]
			<td>
				[wpv-post-body view_template="loop-item-in-degrees-archive"]
			</td>
		[wpv-item index=4]
			<td>
				[wpv-post-body view_template="loop-item-in-degrees-archive"]
			</td>
		</tr>
		[wpv-item index=pad]
			<td></td>
		[wpv-item index=pad-last]
			<td></td>
		</tr>
	</wpv-loop>
	</table>
	<!-- wpv-loop-end -->
	[/wpv-items-found]
	[wpv-no-items-found]
		<strong>[wpml-string context="wpv-views"]No items found[/wpml-string]</strong>
	[/wpv-no-items-found]
[wpv-layout-end]

Loop is just...

[wpv-post-title]

My settings - hidden link

I only have access to an older version of X theme, so I don't know if the information I have is still valid. In my local copy, I go to X > Theme Options > Blog, then scroll down to the archives section. I can select "Standard" or "Masonry". I don't really know much about X theme, but I think this global setting applies to all CPT archives? I'm not the best source of information about this, so maybe it would be best to consult their support team.
