Isotope folded (elements overlap)

Question

I have been reading stack overflow for a solution but can't find it.

(full size image at http://i.imgur.com/hrcDg.png)

When I load the page it looks like that

Here is the site (beta)

If you press all it unfolds, maybe I can solve it if it auto unfolds at the start

Answer 1

The problem is that when you run .isotope the images are not yet loaded, so the plugin cannot calculate their size..

You have some different options to choose from

1. Start isotope after the images have loaded.. $(window).load(function(){/*init plugin here*/})
2. Use the imagesLoaded plugin: http://isotope.metafizzy.co/docs/help.html#imagesloaded_plugin
3. call reLayout once the images are loaded $(window).load(function(){$('#thumbs').isotope('reLayout');});
4. if the li elements are fixed size, then give them dimensions through CSS, and isotope will pick them up..

Answer 2

I fixed it with jquery:

<script type='text/javascript' >
    $(window).load(function() {
        $.getScript('/js/jquery.isotope.min.js', function() { });
    });
</script>

This waits for the whole page to be loaded, then loads the isotope script last. Below, I have a more complete solution, using a "working" notification and a spinner until everything gets loaded. The spinner is from font-awesome icons...

<div class="container wrapper">
    <div class="inner_content">
        <div class='working' >
            <h2>working... <i class="icon-spinner icon-spin icon-large"></i></h2>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

<script type='text/javascript' >
    $(window).load(function() {
        $.getScript('/js/jquery.isotope.min.js', function() {
            $('.working').fadeOut();
        });
    });
</script>
