Implementation Methods | Docs

There are two unique ways of implementing Ajax Load More onto a page – both of the following implementation methods accept all configuration and query parameters.

Shortcode
alm_render (PHP)

Shortcode

The shortcode implementation is the OG method for adding Ajax Load More to posts, pages and theme templates.

// Template (.php)

echo do_shortcode('[ajax_load_more post_type="portfolio"]');

// Page Editor

[ajax_load_more post_type="portfolio"]

Pro Tip: Use the Shortcode Builder to create a formatted Ajax Load More shortcode in seconds.

alm_render

The alm_render method was added in Ajax Load More 5.0 for users who prefer to avoid shortcodes for functional implementations.

alm_render accepts an array of key/value pairs. Each key(parameter) and value must be passed as a string as shown below in the code sample.

// page-template.php

$category = 'design';

$args = array(

'post_type' => 'post',

'posts_per_page' => '6',

'category' => $category,

'button_label' => __( 'Show More Posts', 'framework' ),

'button_loading_label' => __( 'Loading...', 'framework' ),

'scroll' => 'false'

);

if(function_exists('alm_render')){

alm_render($args);

}
