Hi!

Im interesting in the plugin, but i have a question.

Can put this in the “Year”: 8P – 03-13 Can I put it on or just let it put years?

Thanks a lot!

Hi there, thanks for showing interest in my pllugin.

You can add years in your format too but there it will no more support year ranges ( eg: 2003-2009 ). I think it shouldn’t be a problem in your case.

Thanks, WP Instinct Team

Hi,

I accidentally purchased this plugin and needed the “Year, Make” version. I just ordered it (a3525cdb-2654-478c-bd22-a03567b167a8).

May I have a refund for this order (f260726d-bb0f-4f98-8df3-c4ae34078355).

Thank you for your time and hard work.

Hi there,

I have approved your refund request. Please let me know if you see a notification for this or not yet.

Hello sir im add plugin to my website but get me problem with plugin “YITH WooCommerce Compare” plugin not working pls we needed help me ?

Hi there,

Thanks for purchasing my plugin. I would be happy to help you. Please share your website FTP and Admin details with me and also tell me where and how can I see the conflict on website. You cann email me all these details on wpinstinct@gmail.com.

Thanks, WP Instinct Team

Thinking about purchasing this however I have one question beforehand: If I’m using the CSV upload tool and I don’t have any makes/years/models/engines already uploaded/preset into the plugin (so zero vehicle data) and I upload compatibilities matching to product sku’s in the CSV upload tool, will it work? Does it add the years/makes/models/engines into the system when using the CSV upload tool or do I have to already have all the years/makes/models/engines already entered into the plugin so that the CSV would just match them. Also, will the CSV upload tool work with files that are 40,000+ rows?

Thanks!

Another 2 questions sir, lets say that I have a product with sku: 1234, lets say that I used the csv to upload 10 vehicles to product 1234 but I noticed afterwards that the vehicles were wrong. What would happen if I submitted another import except with only 7 completely different vehicles?

Would it delete the existing 10 vehicles and change it to the 7 different ones?

Would it add 7 different vehicles to the existing 10 vehicles?

How can I make it work so that it will be able to change/delete/update existing data?

Also: Check out the wpallimport plugin, they have this feature called cron jobs, which allows it to regularly run a task to update/add data by downloading from a link, lets say a .gsheet file and it would check for new data, any possibility of setting something like this up? So that we can host a file on a link and then the plugin would be able to regularly check that link for updates and changes?

Thanks!

1. It wouldn’t delete already imported vehicles in this case if new vehicles are with different name. In case newly uploaded vehicles are of same name then it will extend same existing terms tio create relation with products. In case if you want to add/edit/delete existing data then will you upload complete CSV everytime you want to upload new vehicles?

2. I am not much familiar with WP All Import plugin but I think it allows import of custom taxonomy terms in hierarchy from link. That way you should be able to stup same plugin for my taxonomy terms too rather creating a different script if I am correct.

Please let me know if you still have any question for me. Thanks!

After installing and placing in the current template’s widget. We’ve activated Chosen and the menu’s still look like the current template’s default. Plus the Search/Reset and My Garage are all clustered on top of each other.

Hi there,

Is it possible to have the the widget show horizontally on my webpage and switch to vertical view in a mobile device (responsive)? Right now it always displays horizontally.

Hi there, thanks for purchasing my pluign.

This requires a bit of CSS work. If you are good with CSS styling then you can do it easily. In case if want me to help you on this then please share your website URL with me and I will write required CSS and will share it with you.

Thanks, WP Instinct Team

These are the fields for which the users should be able to search on my website: Vehicle Type,Year, Make, Model, Sub Model, Engine . Is there any way we can add Vehicle Type and Sub Model data as well?

Hi there,

Thanks for showing interest in my plugin. For your requirements, this plugin would require some customization. I can help you with this customization but this will cost you extra USD’s from plugin’s original cost. Please email me on wpinstinct@gmail.com in case you are interested to discuss it further.

Thanks, WP Instinct Team

Hi, struggling to work out how to add this into a specific category page only. Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

add_filter( ‘woocommerce_before_shop_loop’, ‘part_finder_plugin’, 15 );

function part_finder_plugin($classes) {

if ( in_category( 262 ) ) $classes[] = do_shortcode(‘[woo_vpf_filter title=”Select Your Vehicle” view=”H” label_make=”Select Make” label_model=”Select Model” show_year=”true” label_year=”Select Year” show_category=”true” show_my_vehicles=”true” show_keyword=”false” label_reset_search=”Reset Search”]’); return $classes; }

I understand your concern but currently there is no way to remove empty categories from shop page in case if there is no product associated to them. If you email me your website FTP details and Admin login credentials then I can write a code snippet in your current theme’s functions.php file which can help to get rid of this issue. Thanks!

I have emailed through the details. Thanks.

Okay I am going to check it now. Thanks!

Hello! I try to use the import function, and I got it to work for importing Make/Model/Year (I am not using Engine function because I have a motocross site that I am building, which there are not different engines the way I built it up). But when I also want to import a product that I already added to my site to a certain make/model/year it does not add the bikes to the product.. Could I have some support on how to make the .csv file correctly :)

Hi there,

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

Please make sure that item_product column is always on fifth position in CSV even if you don’t have engines. In this case add a column item_engine on fourth position and leave it blank for all rows.

Thanks, WP Instinct Team

Me again.

Is there a way to use this horizontal filter within a specific category only?

What i’d like is to have this filter on a specific category page only and after the filter button is clicked, the filter is applied while staying on that same category page (not redirecting to main shop page as it is currently doing).

Thank you and great plugin so far :)

There are two ways to achieve this:

1. Enable category filter form widget/shortcode settings and then writing a small custom function in your current theme’s functions.php file which extends VPF plugin’s hook to select current category as default from dropdown. Youcan ide this category dropdown using CSS at same time. That way it will search products from current category but it wouldn’t let the users on same page. It will take users to same results page but this time products will be only for current category.

2. Custoizing plugin a bit so it remains user on same page and shows results from current category only. However plugin wouldn’t be updatable anymore in this case so I will recommend first way where you would still be able to update plugin with future versions.

Thanks, WP Instinct Team

Hi,

Trying to set up the horizontal short code onto one category page only.

I have the vehicle make, model and year (with filter button) displayed initially but if there are no results for the filter I lose the horizontal search bar.

I don’t seem to have the “No results” message either.

Is there some way I can keep the horizontal search bar regardless of no results or not, as well as fix the error message display?

Thankyou.

Hi there,

Thanks for purchasing my plugin. For keeping search bar in results page too, you should add vpf shortcode using WooCommerce hook which helps to place content before products list. Regarding no products result messages this is something your theme should do already. Please email me your website FTP and Admin details along with the URL where I see VPF search form. You can email me these details on wpinstinct@gmail.com. I would be more than happy to help you.

Thanks, WP Instinct Team

Fantastic, thanks for pointing me in the right direction. Here is the code I used to get it working in functions.php.

add_filter( ‘woocommerce_before_shop_loop’, ‘part_finder_plugin’, 15 );

function part_finder_plugin() { echo do_shortcode(‘[woo_vpf_filter title=”Select Your Vehicle” view=”H” label_make=”Select Make” label_model=”Select Model” show_year=”true” label_year=”Select Year” show_category=”false” show_my_vehicles=”true” show_keyword=”false” label_reset_search=”Reset Search”]’); }

Yes, this is something I was talking about. Nice to see that you have implement it yourself. Great work!

Hello When I duplicate a product with product terms the terms are not duplicated on the new product.

Can you look into this for me?

Hi there, thanks for purchasing my plugin.

I would be happy to help you. I am already aware with this issue and will fix this in next version. Meanwhile you can try following steps and it should help you in auto duplicating terms while you dulicate a product:

1. Edit File: /wp-content/plugins/woo-vehicle-parts-finder/includes/class-woo-vpf-hooks.php

2. Search for: $duplicate_product_term_ids = wp_get_post_terms( $product->get_id(), 'product_make', array( 'fields' => 'ids' ) );

3. Replace it with: $duplicate_product_term_ids = wp_get_post_terms( $duplicate->get_id(), 'product_make', array( 'fields' => 'ids' ) );

Once you do it please let me know if it helps or not. I will wait for your response.

Thanks, WP Instinct Team

Hello I just purchased this plugin for my online store.

I currently have 10,000+ products in my store. Can this plugin use my existing WooCommerce categories and subcategories to search from or would I have to import all of my categories and products into this parts finder separately?

Hi there, thanks for purchasing my plugin.

This plugin uses WooCommerce’s existing products for the search results. You have to creat/import Makes/Models/Years again as it can not load WooCommerce categories for same purpose. If possible please share your website admin details with me on my Email ID wpinstinct@gmail.com so that I can check current hierarchy of categories you have created and can provide you possible solutions.

Thanks, WP Instinct Team

Hi there,

Thanks for purchasing my plugin. I would be happy to help you. Please email me your website FTP and Admin details on wpinstinct@gmail.com so that I can check for search results issue. Also what do I need to check from youtube video as it simply explains the features my plugin provides.

Thanks, WP Instinct Team

Hello,

I bought this plugin a while back and worked great. But I just updated my WordPress to 4.9.4 with WooCommerce 3.3.1 and the plugin is no longer working. I have version 2.8 of your plugin WooCommerce Vehicle Parts Finder – Make/Model/Year/Engine/Category/Keyword

Any word on how to fix this?

Thank you, RALLInspired.

You are welcome! Please leave 5 star ratings on CodeCanyon if you like our plugin and support. Thanks!

I just noticed that you have already left 5 star ratings. Thank you so much and have a great day!

I want the years grouped (1974-1978). But it won’t work.

In the admin settings: CSV Comma Separated Columns i selected Product.

In the admin settings: CSV Range Supported Columns i selected Year.

My import file looks like:

item_make item_model item_year item_engine item_product AUDI 50 1974-1978 1.1 [1974.08-1977.07] 44kW (60pk) 11530005 AUDI 50 1974-1978 1.1 [1974.08-1978.07] 37kW (50pk) 11530005 AUDI 50 1974-1978 1.3 [1977.08-1978.07] 44kW (60pk) 11530005

Unfortunately the VFP Terms show all the years seperated. How to fix this..

Hi there, thanks for purchasing my plugin.

My plugin allows admin to upload years in groups but it auto breakes it down in individual years while importing. Otherwise it wouldn’t be possible to show individual year in dropdowns while showing in front end search form.

In case you don’t select YEAR for CSV RANGE SUPPORTED option, then it wouldn’t break groups to individual years but then it will show each year group differently in front end search.

Please let me know if you have any further question for me.

Thanks, WP Instinct Team

Hello,

I am still trying to work it out.

CSV Comma Separated Columns i don’t select any column. CSV Range Supported Columns i don’t select any column.

If i import the product_makes.csv. IT creates only 1 dept.

Make:

Mercedes Benz <- imported as make S-Class Hybrid <- imported as make 4.8L V6 <- imported as make 2000 <- imported as make

No models, years, engines are imported.

Could you help me finding the right settings.

I think models, years and engines should be there but you are not getting about how to see them. Take your mouse over Make name in admin on VPF Terms page and it will show a link for VEW MODELS. Click on it and it will show you models only for this specific make. Same way take your mouse over Model name and it will show you a quick link for VIEW YEARS.

Please email m your website details on wpinstinct@gmail.com if you still don’t see these terms. I would be happy to help you. Thanks!

So general question about setup. I dont see terminology that immediately says make model year ect am i missing something? Also want to import a csv of years makes and models but I assume i should work with a sample i create in the plugin and export to see the structure that is there PRIOR to import so the csv is formatted correctly. I also believe I will want some custom integration which I was wondering if i could hire you for that. Using the xstore theme and I did email you for some presales questions, which you did answer.

Hi there,

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

1. Let me know if you don’t see a VPF menu in admin dashboard? If you see it then click on it and you will see a list of Makes on the page. Further take you mouse on Make name and it will allow you to view models for this specific Make. Sme way you can seeYears and Engines as well.

2. Better if you download plugin’s sample CSV file from Admin >> VPF >> IMPORT CSV page and then make changes into it. First give it a try with couple of rows and see if it works perfectly whole over the website. Once it looks okay then go ahead with more data. Note*: In case if you upload same terms again and again, it will not duplicate existing terms in this case so you don’t need to worry about re-uploading same CSV file with few additions again and again.

3. If you tell me list of changes you need then I can tell you if I can be available for that much tme or not.

Thanks, WP Instinct Team
