Couldn’t Get it to Work with Portfolio Element in Avada

Using the Avada theme, I tried to use it to reorganize my Portfolio posts. It was clunky on the reorder page in that, if I added a post to a category, I had to completely leave this page and come back in to see the new post in the reorder list (reloading the page didn’t work and there’s no save/update button to force a reload either). The real issue is though when using the Portfolio Fusion element on a page that displays more than one category, it worked for the first category displayed but destroyed the formatting in weird ways of the other category. I spent about an hour playing with it trying to get it to work before giving up as the results were constantly inconsistent. Perhaps it works well with other themes but not good for my purposes.
