Thank you both for the prompt responses! Speaks volumes of your support!!
Not sure how it is working for you both but I will spell out my specific issue to see if it helps identify the exact problem.
Please remember, what I'm trying to do is link a file to each image. I'm not just trying to filter images.
Without a link the filter works fine and filters all images in-line. Meaning the images all line up in a single row.
With a link the filter still works but the images are no longer in-line. They show up but it seems they appear in the exact spot which they're placed on the grid. The objective is to have them filter and appear in-line.
For example, without a link the "lollipops" and "candy" images when filtered all appear on the same row. Yet when a link is established and the filter is applied, the images still appear but not on the same row.
I have published both versions for you to see exactly what I mean:
The first link is the original candy template. Please notice when you click on any of the filters all images appear in-line. Meaning they are filtered and appear on the same row regardless of where their original location was on the grid.

This second link has a link associated to each image. Please notice when you click on the lollipop or candy filters the images still appear but not in-line. They appear 2 in one row and 1 in another row.

Hopefully this helps bring clarity to the issue at hand.
