Dear author, The Vehicle Parts finder has an option to set the year range for a specific product, for example: This Oil filter fits for Volkswagen Passat 1.9 TDI from 2006 to 2009. Thank you for the response!

Hi there, thanks for showing interest in my plugin.

This plugin comes with an option to use an year range for products in CSV during import rather you add new row per year. However import tool will break down ths range to individual years automatically.

Let me know if you have any further question for me.

Thanks, WP Instinct Team

Hi, I have your plugin installed and I love it, But i have few issues,

www.bmwmotorspares.com/sklep

i was wondering if i cuold make a pop up or something to tell the user that only products matching the selected are being dispalyed?

also, is there any posibity to have a list of 5 to 10 last searched for?

Hi there, thanks for purchasing my plugin.

1. It requires some custom work in your current theme in order to show a popup/alert about search matching products. If you want me to do this for you then it will cost you few additional USD’s as it wouldn’t fall under plugin support.

2. If you enable MY GARAGE widget then it already shows user’s recent searches in MY GARAGE section.

You can email me at wpinstinct@gmail.com in case you want me to help you with custom work.

Thanks, WP Instinct Team

Hello there, I am working on a website that sells automotive wheels, tires and accessories. Wheel and tire fitment is coming from a well known database, while the accessory information (aces and pies) is coming from one of two other proven data sets. My developer is having an issue with submodel information (IE- Bed length on a truck so a user order the proper tonneau cover or perhaps a car cover but fitment for a coupe and convertible are different). Is this plugin capable of this type of submodel fitment accuracy if the incoming dataset supplies this much information?

Hi there,

Sorry but I don’t think if my plugin would be capable to handle this. It uses its own database for all the levels by saving them in WordPress’s default database tables.

Hello,

I am currently building a webshop solution for car battery seller. There are a really big number of possible combinations of how batteries can be compatible with different car makes and models. Currently, I have one battery brand with 60 batteries, and I have CSV file with 500k+ rows compatibility with cars from 1950 til 2018. File size is more than 700mb. I could see the limitation of uploading file is little more than 100mb. Could such a plugin handle so much data and how it could affect its performace?

H there, thanks for showing interest ion my plugin.

Sorry but I don’t think if my plugin would be good enough to handle that much data. My plugin uses WordPress taxonomies DB to store all the terms. You have a huge list of terms and it wouldn’t be easy to manage those through pre-ready database tables.

Thanks, WP Instinct Team

Hello,

I have downloaded an installed your plugin on my website. When I try to upload the CSV file, it loads for about a minute then times out giving me a 503 error. Is there something I am doing wrong? I can send you the file I am uploading if that helps.

I was wondering if it is something in my settings that needs changed? The form I am uploading is only 250 KB.

Thank you,

Ryan Dougan

Thank you!

Did you receive my emails with the above information?

Yes, I have few emails from you and going to work on the issue now. Thank you!

Hi, is it possible try your plugin? I am asking that because actually I have problems with the loading of 12.000 variables: the site returns me white page when I load the shop page with filter module active so I am scared that the problem remains also with your plugin. Have you never tried to load all these variables?

Thanks in advance

Thanks! I am trying it, I will contact you asap!

Sure, take your time!

Hi, I have a pre-sales question. I am looking at your demo site and it is not pre-loaded with all the vehicle makes and potentially models and other base configuration data. ODes this not come with the plugin or do I have to purchase and load myself? Secondly, is the plugin capable of horizontal alignment? It is currently shown in vertical only. http://preview.codecanyon.net/item/woocommerce-vehicle-parts-finder-makemodelyear/full_screen_preview/13458497?_ga=2.266571086.15460643.1516525626-1014821413.1510507428

Hi there,

Thanks for showing interest in my plugin.

1. This plugin doesn’t come with Makes/Models/Years database and you have to arrange/create a CSV yourself with all these data which you can then upload through plugin’s built-in import tool.

2. It support horizontal view too but would still require some styling efforts which you can do yourself too if you are good in CSS.

Thanks, WP Instinct Team

Hmmm… after another 2 hours everything works now… looks like my hoster had some trouble. Again, thanks a lot for such great plugin!!!

Thank you for the confirmation!

Hello. First – thanks a lot for plugin. It worked great until today when i asked a guy to modify some .css on website. When he finished everything was still great (i cleared browser cache) but after about 2-3 hours find parts widget went to top… I reinstalled plugin and widget dissapeared. Only text “Vehicle Parts Filter” – https://maxfix.ru/

Hi there,

Thanks for purchasing my plugin and appreciating my work. Looking into your next comment, seems like everything has been sorted out now. Let me know if you have any other question for me.

Thanks, WP Instinct Team

Hello again :) Is there a way to show categories with number of products that fits searching? I mean after I choose Vehicle I want to show how many products from every categories fits this vehicle. Greetings

Hi,

There is no direct function in plugin which does it currently but if you provide me your website details then I can try to write a code snppet on your server for it.

Thanks, WP Instinct Team

Is there any way for VPF to filter products on pages with category shortcodes? We’ve implemented VPF and it filters the standard WooCommerce page beautifully, but we can’t seem to get it to work on pages using WooCommerce shortcodes with WPBakery PageBuilder. The standard product page doesn’t have enough customization – can you provide any insight?

Hi there, thanks for purchasing my plugin.

As per I understand you want search results page to be customizable through WP Bakery Page Builder where my plugin uses default search page layout so its not possible. Still if you provide me your website details ( including FTP and Admin access ) then I can try to find out a solution for you. You can email me your website details on wpinstinct@gmail.com.

Thanks, WP Instinct Team

Hello,

I purchased and installed the plugin, and as i see i can set the terms for the “make”, manually from the admin panel -> VPR -> Terms.

In this page, i only see the make “item”. Where can i set manually the terms for the other items (for example: Model, Year, Engine etc). I guess there will be a way except the csv import.

Thank you.

Hi there, thanks for purchasing my plugin.

1. If you take your mouse over make name, you will see a quick option saying ‘View Models’. Click on it and you will see a list of models relevant to this particular make. Same way you can see Years by taking your mouse over model name.

2. You can add VPF terms ( Makes, Models and Years ) using plugin’s built in CSV import tool also. Go to Admin Panel -> VPF -> Import CSV and you will find an option to upload CSV file there. For manually add the terms, you can use top left form from the same page where you see Makes/Models/Years/Engines through Admin Panel -> VPF -> Terms.

Please let me know if you have any questions for me.

Thanks, WP Instinct Team

Hello,

It seems that i have 2 problems.

1. In mouse hover in the make name, it doesn’t shows any quick option.

2. I tried to import a csv. The import was completed successfully and i can see the options in the product field setting but still i can’t see the terms in “VPF Terms” page. Also it seems that there is a problem with the greek chars. I am getting some weird characters.

Thank you.

1. Please share your website Admin/FTP details with me so that I can check for the reason and fix it.

2. Forward me CSV file too with greek chars so that I can test for it too.

You can email me all these details on wpinstinct@gmail.com. Thanks!

i bought your plugin and it is a good plugin.. please how can i create pages for each “Make” that i will create. I look forward to hearing from you soon as this is very important.. thank you very much

I have accepted your hangout request. Let’s do further chat there. Thanks!

i have sent you some messages but no reply from you.. i look forward to hearing from you soon.

I am available for chat now.

I have 2 questions: 1). Will you be updating soon as woocommerce did have some updates? 2). Would this plugin accommodate products feed from xml feed or an api? Just curious as I have a site i am working on currently that would require a lot of products to be added

Hi there, thanks for showing interest in my plugin.

1. I have already tested it with latest version of WooCommerce and it works fine without any issue.

2. This plugins comes with a built-in importer which allows you to import Makes/Models/Years/Engines quickly and creates their relations with products at the same time without requiring much manual work.

Thanks, WP Instinct Team

needing a lookup plugin to accommodate: BEGIN YEAR/END YEAR/MAKE/MODEL/TRANSMISSION/SUB MODEL/LITERS/RADIATOR HEIGHT/RADIATOR WIDTH/PRIM/2 FANS

PRIM/2 FANS are the two fields with the parts on the site.

Are you able to add fields to yours and can you do a YEAR RANGE or is it SINGLE YEAR only?

Hi there, thanks for showing interest in my plugin.

As I see you need around 12 levels and year start/end ranges too which wouldn’t be possible with my plugin. It would require a lot of custom work and I wouldn’t be available for that much work.

Thanks, WP Instinct Team

Hi, I have worked with this plugin all day, but cannot make it work. It is like the products won´t attach to the choosen vehicle. I have tried importingvia CSV, made like your example but it does not work. Please help. Mayby you have a guide somewhere?

Please share your Skype/Hangouts ID so that we can do a quick chat while I guide you for plugin’s basics. Thanks!

Hi, Sorry don´t have any of them. Is it possible through facebook messenger?

Sorry, I don’t use Facebook for professional purpose. Do you have a gmail account?

Hi, I just bought the VPF plugin, but i don not understand how I add my products to it? I have 4600 products and in time it will be more like 8000. For now they are in product categories, can i use these as the levels of entry in the VPF plugin? I sell motocycle exhausts. My categorfies for one bike, could be FX Honda > CBR600RR > 03-06 – the same three levels of info I would like in the VPF. But how to add them easiest?

Hope you understand, thx Poul

Please share your gmail ID with me.

Sent you an email

sir, I have installed and activated filter plugin in my woocommerce website, but not showing in the site. Kindly help

HI there, thanks for purchasing my plugin.

Please make sure that you have installed and activated WooCommerce plugin too. If my plugin still doesn’t show anywhere in dashboard then please email your website FTP and Admin details on wpinstinct@gmail.com.

Thanks, WP Instinct Team

Hi I just purchased your plugin and when I try to install zip file it reads no zip file found.

Hi there,

Thanks for purchasing my plugin. I would be happy to help you.

You have to extract/unzip the downloaded archive file first and then find another zip file within extracted directory. Try installing this and let me know if you still face any issue.

Thanks, WP Instinct Team

Hi wpinstinct, Very interested in adding this part finder to our store… just a couple of quick questions: - Is it possible to create SEO friendly pages from the filter results? Like your demo uses parameters (?make=6&model=47&year_id=52&engine=&category=&s=&post_type=product&action=vpf-search) – could pages be created visually like /audi/a3-cabriolet/2008/ instead?

- Are you able to help us create a persistent garage much like the comment above? Where the selected vehicle remains throughout the site…

Thanks,

Hi there, thanks for showing interest in my plugin.

1. It wouldn’t be easy to change the URL structure and will require a lot of custom work. I can help you on this but it will cost you additional USD’s for this custom work. Email me on wpinstinct@gmail.com if you want to discuss further on this.

2. It already provides an option to maintain the search whole over the website until customer rsets the search from garage.

Thanks, WP Instinct Team
