Hi! Looking for advice on possible solutions for the following scenario:

I’d like there to be category navigation and within each category for the navigation to go deeper into its sub-categories. **Here’s an example:**

* * *

North America | South America

Click on North America -\>

USA | Canada  
(Display list of posts in North America)

Click on USA -\>

New Jersey | New York  
(Display list of posts in USA)

* * *

Powerpack has a Category Grid module but doesn’t seem to fit exactly what I’m looking for it to do. It displays _all_ sub-categories rather than only one level down.

Another solution I considered is using FacetWP but will require a bit more work than I had anticipated but willing to go down that path if that’s what it takes.

Thoughts/suggestions?

Maybe WP GridBuilder, that’s able to query taxonomy terms and render them in a grid:

> **[Gridbuilder ᵂᴾ - WordPress grid and facet plugin](https://wpgridbuilder.com/)**
>
> Create advanced and filterable grids for WordPress from post types, users or terms. Filter content by taxonomy terms, custom fields or WordPress fields.

It also has a powerful facet feature.  
It’s much more intuitive to setup than Facet WP.

Interesting. I’ve never heard of this plugin but it looks fantastic.

Yes, i’m beginning to use it in a project and only have good surprises with it so far.  
It combines multiple advantages that would require several other plugins to reach the goal, it’s solid, efficient UI and offers a fair price.  
Worth the try to test it at least!
