Hello pre-sale question, can i set different filters based on category with different things to person filtrate?
Hello
I think yes, using this shortcode: http://www.woocommerce-filter.com/documentation/#!/section_3_1
Example: [woof tax_only=’pa_color,pa_size’ by_only=’by_sku,by_author’] – drop this shortcode in the text-widget and using this plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/widget-logic/other_notes/ set any condition for that plugin …
Try firstly free version of the plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/woocommerce-products-filter/
Is it possible to create a product filter / finder on my homepage, same as shown in the image: http://imgur.com/7T3Eobt
Yes: http://www.woocommerce-filter.com/documentation/#!/section_3_1 but maybe you will need use some css code for create exact layout …
https://wordpress.org/plugins/woocommerce-products-filter/ – try before buy …How do I get rid of the search magnifying glass and the attached panel? (as seen in this attached image) http://goo.gl/8Qh1E9
Hello
If you mean shortcode [woof] use attribute ‘autohide’: http://www.woocommerce-filter.com/documentation/#!/section_3_1
If you mean automatic filter form: tab Design -> http://clip2net.com/s/3vx1Fff
Hi, i just bought this plugin. How exactly i can show a label for every part of filter. For example i use taxonomy “Camera type”, how can i display “Camera type” above the options from this taxonomy? I read the documentation and saw that i need to click the Fourth item… i clicked on “additional options” button but it did not do anything.
Thank you!
So i tried on a fresh install, only Woocommerce + your plugin installed and seems it also not working to click that button. Please check compatibility WooCommerce 2.5.3 with your plugin….
Hello
The plugin works fine with woo 2.5.x – http://www.demo.woocommerce-filter.com/
i clicked on “additional options” button but it did not do anything – you have js error, and as you disable all plugins exept woof+woo – this issue is in the theme
Try to define it self by http://www.woocommerce-filter.com/how-to-use-firebug-in-firefox-browser/ OR send me wp-admin access http://codecanyon.net/item/woof-woocommerce-products-filter/11498469/support to define that issue …
I tried on default theme on a WP clean install(only woof+woo installed) and also with a theme from Themeforest and it did not work. I will send you a message with wp-admin access.
Problem solved
i don’t know why but on my laptop with Chrome and Firefox it’s not working but with Edge it’s working… Using another laptop it’s working fine!
Thank you 
Hi
I like what I see but have a very important question,
If I am using multiple taxonomies to filter and populate results in a shortcode, how do I enable the AND | OR filtering to produce results in a shortcode. At the moment I think its OR which produces results by default so how can we activate it to be AND in a shortcode?
Thanks Amit.
Hello Amit
Yes, ‘OR’ enabled, you can realize ‘AND’ for [woof_products] only using this: http://www.woocommerce-filter.com/hook/woof_products_query/
By the way if you will do this and enable AJAX mode – ‘AND’ will be working on all pages of the shop …
Thanks I tried but it doesnt seems to be working? Do I need to change ‘product_tag’ to my custom taxonomy or include all of them and I just need to put this code in theme functions.php or do something more as well?
Hello
Do I need to change ‘product_tag’ to my custom taxonomy – of course, that taxonomy is just for an example -> Use array $relations for manipulating
Can we have different attributes for different categories. Each attribute will only show in a certain category and not across all categories? For example if we have a website that sells antiques, then we have a category for paintings that will have the Artist/Painter names as attributes and another category for Dining Tables that will have the No. of chairs as attributes. And these attributes will show only in their own categories. Like the paintings category wont show the attributes of no. of chairs. Is this possible in this plugin?
- tax_only – write taxonomies or products slug using comma
- by_only – write any by-filter-elements there using comma: by_text,by_price,by_sku,by_author,by_insales,by_instock. Of course firstly user should enable extensions for that by-filter-elements
- Example: [woof tax_only=’pa_color,pa_size’ by_only=’by_sku,by_author’]. Use word ‘none’ if you do not want out any of that 2 types of filter-elements
Drop shortcode [woof tax_only=’pa_color,pa_size’ by_only=’by_sku,by_author’] in text widget and using this plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/widget-logic/other_notes/ set conditions where you want appear this
If we select a category, then will the attributes of only the products under that category will display?
Yes, but for this enable show count+dynamic recount
Example:Hi, prepurchase question: does this plugin can create all filter like: https://www.semrock.com/sets.aspx
Hello
By checkboxes – yes, but not this thing http://clip2net.com/s/3vitpl3
http://www.demo.woocommerce-filter.com/Hello
prepurchase question
Does this plugin can filter by stock per variation?
i have a woocomerce shoes store in wich each product have size 23 to 28 but not each one have stock just the most common ones.
I need to have an option to filter the sizes with stock for example if i select size 26 it should show only products which have stock =! 0 on that specific size
thanks
Hello
Now with this plugin it only: http://codecanyon.net/item/woocommerce-show-single-variations/13523915
Hi!
Is it possible to disable plugin loading on non woocommerce pages?
Plugin is quite resource demanding – it adds 1 second to page load what is the same all other plugins and WP core take all together. It is not a big deal in Woocommerce pages, but otherwise it is not OK.
Thank you for your help!
Hello
I just working on this functionality, the quickest idea I have:- index.php of the plugin
- public function init and enqueue_scripts_styles – after their start drop next code http://clip2net.com/s/3vc9Z1c
if (!is_admin())
{
//on which pages the plugin should be activated. Backslash on the end should be!!
$links = array('http://mysite.com/page1/','http://mysite.com/page2/');
$server_link = '';
//print_r($_SERVER);
if (isset($_SERVER['SCRIPT_URI']))
{
$server_link = $_SERVER['SCRIPT_URI'];
} else
{
if (isset($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']))
{
$server_link = site_url() . $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
}
}
//***
if (!empty($server_link))
{
foreach ($links as $key => $url)
{
$links[$key] = trim($url);
}
//print_r($links);
if (!in_array(trim($server_link), $links))
{
return false;
}
}
}
- In $links array enter links where you want let the plugin be inited
Hi! We bought this plugin for use on one of our customers site. It worked very well until some update of Wordpress or WooCommerce. Now when changing what to filter it allways shows all the products.
http://wp.ojopsweden.se/product-category/catches/I tried to remove the old version of the plugin and installed the latest 2.1.3.4 but still no luck. Any ideas of what is going on here?
Otherwise the plugin is great and does what it should. 
Thanks / Jonas
Can mention that all filters are product attributes and if I for example change to “700” in “Product group” then I still see all products in the list after the page has reloaded. The same goes for other attributes except “Size” that seem to work. Any problem with charachters, spaces et.c?
Hello Jonas
Yes, after some woo+wp updates this question need attention, read this please: http://www.woocommerce-filter.com/filtering-by-product-attribute-doesn-work/
Yes saw that in a post above. It solved the problem. Thanks! One can wonder if I would create a new attribute would woocommerce name it automatically with umderscore instead of the minus-character? My thought is that this can lead to a big problem for many.
Hello
Great!
One can wonder if I would create a new attribute would woocommerce name it automatically with underscore instead of the minus-character? – no, automatic creation of all slugs is WordPress functionality, so here no variants, but it is ok that changing of it not takes a lot of time …
Hello, I’m using your filter plugin on client’s site (bought from other account). We are now working on a theme for TF, and we need a range slider filter option for attributes, but as I see there are no such option in the plugin. We are going to use it for example for a model height, weight and other body parameters. We would like to use your plugin in a demo and suggest theme buyers to buy your plugin separately if they need advanced filtering, but we need such feature. If there any way to achieve this or you going to implement it soon (but we really need it right now)? Thank you.
Hello
I did it already for the next version of the plugin http://www.demo.woocommerce-filter.com/ -> http://clip2net.com/s/3v2Qcfy == http://clip2net.com/s/3v2QpyR (beta) , and you can get it writing me PM: http://codecanyon.net/item/woof-woocommerce-products-filter/11498469/support – just write me from account you bought it …

Hello

images – in tab extension activate Image ext and press save …
Watch this video please: http://www.woocommerce-filter.com/ – there are demonstrated nearly all aspects of the plugin …
Hi, I have check and the version is 2.1.3.4. I watched the video several time and you do not explain how to create the color, its already there. Image and color are alread activated.
How do I set the various color that I have? Another problem that I have is that I only want the filter on the sidebar but at the moment it appear at the top of all my product page
Hi there, I managed to get the product filter to work with the color but only if I use the product tags… When I use the Color option, the screen do not bring the selected colors. I still haven’t figured out how to only have it on the side widget
Hi realmag777,
I managed to get all working as expected after a while… Could you please help me with the last remaining problem which is how to not show the filter on the shop top page but inside bar only as your demao
Hello
Great! To not show filter on top just disable it in the plugin settings page: tab Options -> Set filter automatically set to No
I can’t believe it was that simple.
Thank you vey much.
Very powerfull plugin once you get to grip on how it work 
Welcome 
Hi 2 pre-purchase questions, I’ve been using Toolset Views & Types with custom taxonomies to filter and show results in different relationships .e.g. Relation is a custom taxonomy to filter results for say Father & product category Mugs to show only Mugs for father
1. I see that you’ve presets but can these presets be used for custom taxonomy archive pages also, i.e. I can load a custom filter preset on custom taxonomy archive page?
2. Is there a way to do say a parametric search, so in a page I would show only the filters and on submit it would load the results on another results page for the used filter?
Please confirm!
Thanks Amit.
Hello Amit
0) You should enable dynamic recount: http://www.demo.woocommerce-filter.com/product-category/clothing/man/ http://www.demo.woocommerce-filter.com/product-category/clothing/man/pullover/Look on ‘Product Categories’ – they are relevant
1) Yes, use text widget for it and shortcode [woof] http://www.woocommerce-filter.com/documentation/#!/section_3_1 , example: [woof tax_only='pa_color,pa_size' by_only='by_sku,by_author']
2) If you mean redirect to another page – yes – widget has special option for it and shortcode [woof] has attribute ‘redirect’
Hello,
So good solutions 
Can you help me please about Search by price slider.
There is any solution to create more of one slider like Search by price but for different option.
Thank you,
Hello
Thank you 
Just now it is only range-slider for price value. Do you need range slider for meta field?
If I place the WOOF widget in the sidebar other than the SHOP page when I click on a custom taxonomy or category associated with a product it redirects and finds the correct results, but the widget is no longer being displayed in the sidebar. How can we keep the WOOF from always displaying?
We have made sure it is not an issue with displaying of empty terms. It seems the Shop page is the only page that will keep WOOF in the sidebar with the options after searching.
Doesn matter what sidebar to use – looks like that is options or features of current wp theme … You can make any tests with default wp theme …
WOOF in the sidebar with the options after searching. – you mean redirection – yes, if you doing filtering not on shop page, or not on category page – it will redirect to the shop page, BUT if you want use any custom page – use it with shortcode [woo_products] http://www.woocommerce-filter.com/documentation/#!/section_3_1 to avoid any redirection + you can use widget option ‘Redirect to’: http://clip2net.com/s/3uT6VlJ
It appears to be working how I need now once looking at the permalinks using Product Permalinks custom base /shop
Another question I asked above as well. We have created a custom taxonomy by location similar to your example. I would like once you select a location it will remember your selection as you navigate to other pages of the website. Currently it redirects to the shops page with results, but once I go to the product page it loses the saved selections and I have start over filtering again.
Another example, if we go directly to the product-category/example-category the widget no longer displays the product categories option
We have created a custom taxonomy by location similar to your example. Is it possible to have it be once you select a location it will remember your selection as you navigate to other pages of the website?
Hello. Unfortunately not as the plugin works with search data in GET array… But I think it is possible realize using php code if you have good developer …
Could we discuss in private the option for you and some custom work?
Hello
Write me details here please: http://codecanyon.net/item/woof-woocommerce-products-filter/11498469/support
Hi, the plugin only work with ajax? can i put the filter in the home, select some attributes and put a button to redirect to the selected products?
Hello
In redirection and AJAX, you can use different shortcodes with different parameters: http://www.woocommerce-filter.com/documentation/#!/section_3_1
Hi!
I have some pre purchase questions. I’m using the free version and I like it, but I’d like to know if I can group different characteristics to sort by, before purchasing the pro version.
My question is: Can I use multiple “Product Categories” or Product Tags” selector so I can have different categories selectors using the exclude option? Example: I have A, B, C, 1, 2 and 3 “Product Categories” and I use one “Product Categories” selector with 1, 2 and 3 categories excluded to show A, B, and C as options. And a second (or third) “Product Categories” selector with A, B, C excluded to show 1, 2, 3 as options. Is that possible?
Another question is if there is an option to unable to show subcategories in this selectors.
And the last one: I’ve read I can settle a drop-down selector depending on a parent one, but I couldn’t make it work. Is the support for that included in the purchase?
Thanks in advance,
Jose.
Hello Jose
1) I think no
2) No by option, but it can be disabled in: woocommerce-products-filter\views\html_types\checkbox.php -> comment using function woof_draw_checkbox_childs in the code
3) If you mean hierarchy-drop down – http://www.woocommerce-filter.com/documentation/#hierarchy-drop-down . If you need help with using the plugin you can watch this nearly short movie: http://www.woocommerce-filter.com/
Thanks, Still one more question: I have tried to settle a filter by attributes but it’s not working. It shows on the widget, it contains the values and the number of items “(2)” i.e., but when you click you don’t get the correct items —it doesn’t change what it was being shown. I use theme Tyrion, and the last version is installed so Woocommerce support it’s supposed to be ok. If this works I’d be interested in purchase your plugin. Jose
Hello Jose
Not sure understood you, but maybe this will help: http://www.woocommerce-filter.com/filtering-by-product-attribute-doesn-work/
You understood perfectly, it was the ‘Enable Archives?‘ options I didn’t check in the attributes settings. It was a tricky one
Great Plugin, by the way.
Thank you!!
Jose
Great, Welcome 
Hello
Yes, that should be hidden, but not in your case. Write me please PM http://codecanyon.net/item/woof-woocommerce-products-filter/11498469/support with wp-admin access to check the plugin code (test)
Hi,
I’ve used the free version of WOOF Woocommerce Products Filter as a pre-sale plugin testing, and now I’m experiencing 2 issues:
1) The page doesn’t automatically update, i.e. automatic filtering doesn’t seem to be working.
2) It seems to be in conflict with built-in Woocommerce price filters, as the price slider cannot be shown (i.e. only min and max price boxes are shown).
Please let me know if I have to change any setting to make this work.
Best regards,
John
Hello John
1) Enable autosubmit in the plugin settings http://www.woocommerce-filter.com/documentation/#!/section_2
2) Looks like you have js error which breaks js functionality of the plugin, use firebug to identify it: http://www.woocommerce-filter.com/how-to-use-firebug-in-firefox-browser/
