Hello Andrii,
I’d like to order my custom post taxonomies. I’ve noticed the option is greyed out, I’ve seen in the comments the code you’ve provided (https://gist.github.com/wpserve/6068fdfb0fe8312edb3406b32e0f0cea) which i’ve copied and changed the taxonomy to ‘wattage’. BUT the order hasn’t changed and it is still displaying it as ‘Term Name abc’.
I’m using the Custom Post Type UI plugin and I’ve also got Intuitive CPO plugin installed that orders the terms.
Thanks
Hello paranorth.
Thank you for purchasing the plugin.
This code example I provided on GitHub Gist intended for taxonomy terms that store their order in term meta fields with the meta key ‘order’ (for example WooCommerce attributes do it)
I’m not sure how Intuitive CPO plugin does it, but if it use also meta key you have to know what is that meta key and change it in my code example.
I think you have to be familiar with PHP development or ask somebody who is familiar.
I would be happy to help you more with that, but it is something outside from the CodeCanyon item support policy.
Hi, thanks for pretty wonderful plugin. I’d have couple of little things to ask (I’m sure you can see I’m somewhat beginner). Site demo is at https://tipsimaatti.com
1. Why is the gap between ‘Suodatin’ (Means ‘Filter’) and the first actual filter on the sidebar so big? Not my own CSS, maybe from the theme? How to make smaller?
2. I have only ‘enabled styling’, not used any CSS (since it doesn’t seem to make any change). Why checkboxes are wide like that? How to make them boxes but styled like that?
3. Are SEO Rules still supposed to work when using AJAX? Now I can see url changes but any of the SEO rules don’t work (there’s supposed to be text on title, H1 and desc: https://tipsimaatti.com/tagi-jalkapallo/ (Even without AJAX, only Set title works, not H1 and desc, is that a theme thing?)
Hi bloggari
Thank you for purchasing the plugin.
1. This gap created to hold the message “xx post found” (“xx vihjettä löytyi” in your case) to avoid sidebar jumping when this message appears. In your case you theme has big bottom margins for widget title and for p tag in sidebar – https://prnt.sc/26in5i5 You can optionally change these margins via CSS to reduce height of this gap.
2. It’s conflict with your theme CSS that adds padding for inputs. Try please add next CSS via Filters -> Settings -> Experimental -> Custom CSS to fix this:
.wpc-filters-widget-main-wrapper input[type=checkbox], .wpc-filters-widget-main-wrapper input[type=radio]{
padding: 0;
}
3. Yes, sure. SEO Rules should work with enabled AJAX also. It seems you have specific theme that does not use regular WordPress hooks for H1 and term archive descriptions.
For the H1 title you theme should use ‘the_title’ or ‘get_the_archive_title’ hooks for singular and archive pages accordinly. For the term description it should use hook ‘get_the_archive_description’
I hope my answers will help you to solve the problems.
Thanks!! Keep up the good work
Hi I purchased the plugin yesterday. I would like to know when I am in the parent category page, I want the sorting to show the sub category of the parent category but currently it is not working. Can you help check?
https://loopa.com.hk/product-category/womenswear/apede-mod/For example here I am in the apede mod category, supposingly it should be showing sub category “bags” but it is showing the parent category “womenswear” instead
Hi hotoscar
Thank you for purchasing the plugin.
As I see for the moment you changed your category list and there are no parent categories. Send me please screenshot with the problem or return back your category structure to make it more obvious what is the problem and what do yo need.
Optionally you can change the value of the “Empty terms” option in the Filter Set to “Never hide” and maybe you will see desired category.
I have some jQuery that is being affected by this plugin. After the ajax loads it breaks my jQuery. Do you know how to solve this?
window.onload = function () {
};
jQuery(document).ready()
jQuery(function(){
});
jQuery( ".add-pe" ).click(function() {
var dataId = jQuery(this).attr("data-id")
var title = jQuery(this).attr("title")
jQuery(".values-list").append('<input type="hidden" name="acffield_61e58083d6d49" value="' + dataId + '"> ' + title + ' ');
jQuery('[id=' + dataId + ']').append(' Added to list- remember to submit it
').fadeIn(1000)
jQuery(".success").fadeOut(9000);
});
Hello aaron91brimacombe.
Thank you for your interest in the Filter Everything plugin. If you use Free version, please write your questions on WordPress.org forum – https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/filter-everything/ If you use PRO version, you have to write your support request from the account, where you purchased the plugin.
Dear Sir ,Madam
I have the premium version at www.fazecon.gr/store2 and i face a problem with the plugin filterEverything.pro that is very important for me. I would like to exclude it from caching because it does nt work properly.
Apply button doesn’t work and I think it is aproblem fwom WP fastest cahe but I need both of them.
Hi miltoskouis.
Thank you for purchasing the plugin.
It seems you have to setup this on the WP Fastest Cache side. I guess that it should support disabling cache via API and for that purpose you can use function flrt_is_filter_request(); to check if the current page is filtering results page or not.
But of course it requiers developer skills and unfortunately it is something outside from Filter Everything support policy.
But I have to ask you – why do you need to cache filtering result pages? Do you know that there are too many filter combinations even you create 3-4 filters with 5-10 terms in every filter?
Hi,
We have hundreds of Woocommerce product categories and many are set to display type ‘Subcategories’ where no products are being displayed:
Unfortunately the filters are still being displayed, which makes no sense and looks ugly:
How can I hide the filters if the category page contains only subcategories?
Thanks
Hi akakimbi
Thank you for purchasing the plugin.
In general it could be a task not related with Filter Everything at all. You can just disable that widget area on category pages, where products are not displayed.
But if you need that widget area on such pages, you can insert Filters widget as shortcode in your category template file and display it if category is not set as “to show subcategories only”
More about the shortcode you can find here – https://filtereverything.pro/resources/shortcodes/
Thanks for your answer, it brought me on to the right track.
I’m registering a custom sidebar for the Filter Everything widget to be displayed and made sure to not include the sidebar if the display type is subcategories. The display type can be checked with woocommerce_get_loop_display_mode()
Good solution thumbs up
Really nice plugin – however one issue occurs. The SEO rules always use lower case variable names: https://imgur.com/a/6bARuZJ
The Variables however should be written like the category / term name in Title case. Can you fix this?
Hi welaunch
Thank you for your warm words about the plugin.
For the moment there is simple solution of this problem – you can specify filters that should not be lowercased for SEO Rules in Filters -> Settings -> “Entities, whose terms should display in SEO data without force lowercasing” field.
sorry another question: your SEO rules pos type is not appearing in Yoast or Rankmath setings and therefore also not in the sitemap. Will you add support for this too?
Yes, sure. I will add XML sitemap for indexed filtering result pages in 1-2 months (I hope) I’m not sure it will be related with Yoast SEO/RankMath plugins, maybe separate XML file, but will see.
Hi, i would like to retrieve term values to make my custom text.
I’ll try to explain better:
Have 3 taxonomies for a “Location” custom post type:
1. Zone 2. Event Type 3. Location Type
I would like to know if there is a function to retrieve queried values of selected terms.
Hi manzullo
Sure, you can use function ‘flrt_selected_filter_terms’ that return array with selected filters
/**
* @return array|false all selected filters or false
*/
flrt_selected_filter_terms();
More functions supported by Filter Everything you can find here – https://filtereverything.pro/resources/functions/
Ok how can I use this function? For example if I would to retrieve values in Zone?
manzullo do you need to get all possible filter values or just currently selected? This function returns array with selected fitler values or false if there are no such values.
If you need to get all possible filter values you can use hook ‘wpc_terms_before_display’ – https://filtereverything.pro/resources/hooks/#terms-before-display-hook
$terms = apply_filters( 'wpc_terms_before_display', $terms, $filter, $set, $urlManager );
Sorry i think i didn’t explain my issue the best.
I would like to create my custom code in the template, i’ll use add_shortcode to create a shortcode to show the filtered values
Example.
Main search url: https://www.locationroma.it/strutture/ Zone “Montesacro” url: https://www.locationroma.it/strutture/zona-montesacro/ For that page i would like to retrieve the value “montesacro” via function to use it in my custom text for my seo purposes
I don’t need all possible values. I’d need to retrive for each single selected filter the value. I know it is an array but i’d need it only while users search for one of this.
Example: If the user choose “Rome” as Zona and “Private Party” as Event Type i would build a shortcode via code to retrieve the (first array) value of those
So i can build a phrase like:
Best location for [shortcode filter=”event-type”] in [shortcode filter=”zone”]
I did it via code myself but i would like to know if there is a simplest function:
function get_zone() { $output = flrt_selected_filter_terms(); } add_shortcode( ‘the-zone-shorcode’, ‘get_zone’ );
return var_dump($output"zona"[0]);
While visiting the url:
https://www.locationroma.it/strutture/zona-roma-centro/
It returns:
string(11) “roma-centro”
Hi manzullo.
I roughly understand what you want to achieve but unfortunately it is something outside from the plugin support policy. You have to be familiar with development or ask a PHP developer to help you with this.
I’m sorry that I can’t help you with this. I hope you understand this.
Sure i’m a developer. I just would like to know which function can i call
May I have an answer? I just would like to know the function to call the tile when there is only one value per filter. I can’t find any developer documentation
Hello manzullo.
I thought I already answered on your question and as I said this function is
/**
* @return array|false all selected filters or false
*/
flrt_selected_filter_terms();
If you are developer you can use it in all cases – when single filter selected or more. If you can’t understand how to use it you have ask about help in more experienced developer. Unfortunately I can’t write such code for you as it is not included in the plugin support. I’m sorry.
Sorry but this function doesn’t return the Taxonomy name but just the slug. If the name as an accent it doesn’t work
Hey manzullo 
You always can get Taxonomy WordPress object by its slug. But as I said this is something outside from the support scope. I recommend you to ask experienced developer to help you.
I would be glad to help you with this, but unfortunately I have no time for development.
Hi! I installed the free version, it works fine! but when i install pro version it doesn’t work.
Hi luongthanhluan.
Thank you for purchasing the plugin. Try please to update any Filter Set and let me know if it works after that.
I tried the free filter! When I activate the pro version the filter doesn’t work!
luongthanhluan it may happen if your settings were not updated for the PRO version. Can you please send me credentials to your /wp-admin I will check it myself? You can send them via PM, it’s safe do not worry.
I sent you a message on codecanyon! Please check! Thanks !
Stepasyuk, check mail, please ! thank!
Hi luongthanhluan
Thank you for your credentials. I checked your site and realized that reason of the problem is your custom permalinks created for product categories with Permalinks Manager plugin.
Unfortunately my plugin (or any other) can not support custom individual permalinks created with Permalinks Manager plugin. In this case you can use Filter Everything PRO with all features but without permalinks. Instead of them filtering parameters will be GET values as in Free verison. For example …/?fxo=2-fxo instead of …/fxo-2-fxo/ in URL
To achieve this I added next code string in the functions.php file of your active theme:
define( 'FLRT_PERMALINKS_ENABLED', false );
Or if you want use permalinks for filtering result pages you have to disable Permalinks Manager plugin and remove the code string I added.
Let me know what will be best for you.
ok! thank you!
Just purchased pro but can’t get the filters to show on elementor when using “elementor archive post”, I have tried everything. Please help
Hello visibilityrevolution
Thank you for purchasing the plugin.
Let me know what is your Filter Set configuration and what is the page where you tried to filter. You can send me screenshots with Filter Set edit screen and link to the page with the problem.
Optionally you can send me credentials to your /wp-admin via PM It would be much faster.
Bought the PRO version but it wont work. The filter urls in the free version look like this “domain.com/furniture/bedroom/?color=brown” in this case everything is working as it should be. When i switch to the pro version the url changes to “domain.com/furniture/bedroom/color-brown/” and getting the following result “Oops! That page can’t be found.” if i use the first url style i can still search. Any idea how to fix that? Thx
Hello punica.
Thank you for purchasing Filter Everything PRO.
Is the problem with single term “brown” or with all terms (brown, yellow, blue and so on)? Try please to check with other colors. And also try please to change URL prefix in Filters -> Settings -> URL prefixes from color to another and test it.
Let me know about the result.
Hello, it is with all terms no matter what. I also changed the url prefixes but no change. Filter by price or size is still working because the url is old style not pretty. /furniture/bedroom/?min_width=80 (working) /furniture/bedroom/colors-brown (not working)
Hello, it is for all terms (colors) the same issue. I also tried to change the URL prefix but without and luck. it does work for the pricing and size filter cause the slug is leading a ”?” and old style.
Hello punica.
Send me please credentials to your /wp-admin I will check it myself. You can send them via PM, it’s safe.
I have send a message. thx for your help

I have another problem/suggestions for this plugin:
1. When I am on an attribute archive page, the attribute filter in the plugin should disappear as expected however there is an empty space of there filter is. It does not really very professional.
2. When I choose the show hierarchy (under Categories for example) the count of the parent categories count is 0 when in reality I think it should show the count of all the sub categories. Then I choose to Sort Terms By Posts count <321> It should sort the hierarchy (parent categories) total count of the sub categories.
I like this plugin – its really cool. I bought it to test it out but I cannot use on a production site without the issues above sorted out.
Hello Antoine14
Thank you for your suggestions.
1. Can you please send me link on the example of the problem or at least screenshot with it? Optionally you can send it via PM.
2. Problem with count of subcategory posts already fixed and will be available in the next version of the plugin. Optionally you can replace code in the file /filter-everything-pro/src/Entities/TaxonomyEntity.php with this code – https://gist.github.com/wpserve/f7cb8dc4e806ba5f721c7f3f2a2b215c
Hello Stepasyuk, the PRO version I just bought acts strange… like it’s free version. It doesn’t show two filters on the same page, and it doesn’t show the same filter on two different widgets area on my site.
For example: in the shop page in desktop view it shows only the category filter (and not the brand filter), and in the mobile view (blocksy theme) when i click the offcanvas menu (another widget area where i put the filter) it doesn’t show up. If I remove the filter from the desktop widget, then it correctly shows on mobile in the offcanvas…
Hello ernexto.
Thank you for purchasing the plugin.
Let’s try to solve this problem. Let me please know URL of the page, where you have this problem. And send me please screenshots with configuration of both Filter Sets.
Optionally you can send me credentials to the /wp-admin of your site and I will check it myself. You can send them via PM, it’s safe you may not worry about your site and its data.
Ok, message with admin access sent. Please confirm that you received it, thanks!
I got them, I confirm. Thank you, I will let you know.
ernexto, check it please now and let me know if it works for you as you needed it.
Now it does work! Can I now what you did so next time I’ll do the same? What I was doing wrong?
I just made both Filter Sets indentical – with the same list of filters and settings. Its specific for Filter Everything PRO that you can not display the same Filter Set on the page twice and you should use several Filter Sets and sever Filter widgets on the page to show them several times. As your site contains two different widget area for mobile and for desktop you have to use such configuration.
I am glad that your problem is solved. I would be thankful for the review about the plugin https://codecanyon.net/item/filter-everything-wordpress-woocommerce-filter/reviews/31634508
Thank you in advance 
Great! Thank you Stepasyuk. The review is coming… 
1. How can I specify the list of pages where the “Filter set” can be displayed? I’m only available to select one page (product category). 2. How can I use slider on my product attribute? I’m adding “pa_length-mm” to a meta key field, but slider show empty min and max field values.
Thank you in advance for your help.
Hello skdev24.
Thank you for purchasing the plugin.
1. For the moment plugin supports next values for multiple pages “All archive pages”, “Any taxonomy archive (e.g. any category or any tag) page”, “Any author page”.
If you want to use Filter Set on several category pages onlyб you have to create several Filter Sets accordinly.
2. For the moment Range slider can be used for Custom Field Num filters only. But I have plans and I definitely will add ability to use Range slider for taxonomy based filters also. I think it will be implemented in 2 months.
For the momenty you can optionally store your product length values in Custom Fields and create Range slider filter by Custom Field.
Hello Andrii, I am using your plugin and ‘wp multilingual multisite plugin’ which uses multisite for WP Translations. The issue is, that the flag for spanish is not linking to the correct “seo filter url” (seo rule url). I would like to get it linked so that I asked a multilingual multisite plugin developer for help. They are willing to help but they have a problem and question which is: “I See you use a custom post type “seo-filter-url”, but is there any way I can access that in the head code of WP? Do you offer any hooks to check if current URL is a filtered SEO one and then get the post ID?” This is the case: https://di-strategies.com/c/resume-templates/style-best/. If have any hints for them, we would appreciate.
Hello effa54.
I saw their request, but unfortunately I had no time to check it more deeply. In general your support period is expired and I can only help you with this only when I will have free from work time. It can be not so fast. Optionally you can renew your support subscription and I will be obliged to answer you as soon as possible.
I have bought your plugin along with the support. Could you now help?
Hello effa54.
You or support of that plugin can use next code in theme’s header.php to detect if current filtered page has appropriate SEO Rule post id or not – https://gist.github.com/wpserve/082e9279413cfd43baef99a15049c039
Thank you Andrii. The plugin developer has one more question, which is: “is it possible to get the full URL of the current filtered page by this ID? Or get the current filtered URL Automaically without id?”
Hello effa54.
A SEO Rule post stores only URL scheme, but not the current URL.
But current URL always can be received in common PHP ways. For example
$full_url = (isset($_SERVER['HTTPS']) && $_SERVER['HTTPS'] === 'on' ? "https" : "http") . "://$_SERVER[HTTP_HOST]$_SERVER[REQUEST_URI]";
var_dump($full_url);
Or for example WP URL without filters and GET parameters
global $wp;
$without_filters = home_url( $wp->request );
var_dump( $without_filters );
With the function flrt_is_filter_request(); your developer can check if it is filtered page or not.
I hope this will be helpful for you and your developer.
Can I filter Geotagged posts? Like display a map with all posts in area? (for a listing/directory site) Many other filter/facet plugins can do that, but I want to use your plugin ; )
Hello Harvey02
Thank you for your interest in Filter Everything PRO.
It depends from that how geodata is stored on your site. If you can provide me with data example (the best way would be to create screenshot with table cell in phpMyAdmin where this data is stored) I will let you know if it is possible to filter by geodata.
Hi, I have the latitude and longitude saved in post meta. Take a look at how the FacetWP Geo-location addon works. They can filter by geolocation, and it displays a large map with all of the locations on the map. It would be very nice if you can implement this in filter everything.
Harvey02
Thank you for your suggestion. I definitely will consider implementation of this feature in the future. But I think it will not happen faster than in 6 months.
For the moment if your site contains not only latitude and longitude but also location name somewhere in Custom Field or as Taxonomy term you can filter by location names with Filter Everything.
I have bought the plugin to work with geodirectory, which uses custom post types for listings. However, when I add the key for the geodirectory custom field, the filter says no terms yet, even though I know they are there. Is the plugin compatible with geodirectory? Thanks
Hi sandyfootprints.
If to be honest I did not test my plugin with geodirectory. But if it uses Custom Fields to store its data my plugin should support filtering by these data.
From your words it looks like you specified wrong meta key or maybe data stored in Custom Fields has non-standard format. Can you please install PHPMyAdmin on your site (or you can use WordPress plugin to open your DB via PHPMyAdmin) and check what exactly data stored in wp_postmeta table with the key you used for filter?
I would be thankful for screenshot with this data.
Hi. I’ve had a look in the database and geodirectory doesn’t use the wp_postmeta table for the custom fields
it uses its own custom fields table and then details pages to store the data in. I’m guessing this is not compatible?
sandyfootprints unfortunately Filter Everything can not filter by data stored in non wp tables. Mayber it will be added in the future, but not in closest 6 months at least.
Hi, I have a pre-sale question about the plug-in. Is it possible to “save” the filters that have been chosen from a drop-down? I.e. on the homepage you filter on a category and tag, the contents of the page change to the selected options. But if you go to a different page, perhaps news, you still only see the content from the selected filters?
Hi imrafaelhi
Thank you for your interest in Filter Everything PRO.
In general such feature is not supported by the plugin out from the box. Something like that can be only developed especially on your site.
For example when you selects several filters, links to your /news, /products, /articles pages in specific place ( for example in sidebar ) can be updated automatically and if visitor click on them, he will see filtered /products, /articles, /news.
But you have to hire a developer to make such thing. Unfortunately I do not have time to provide such dev service.
Also in this case visitor will no have ability to reset such filtered products and I think it is bad idea at all. It would be better to create individual Filter Sets for each such archive – for /products, /articles, /news.
Hi, I have posted here, and have PM’d you with further details as per your request. Details are in the email I sent, but have no heard anything for over a week now. Did you receive the info? Thanks.
Hi brael.
Sorry for too late response.
I checked your site and the problem. In your case if you really need to use off-canvas sidebar you have to enable AJAX feature in plugin Settings. In this case after each click on a filter, products will be reloaded and sidebar will stay visible. Or if you do no want to use AJAX you have to use regular sidebar.
Optionally you can write some code that makes off-canvas sidebar visible if filtering results page is opened, but it’s bad idea as sometimes visitors do not want to filter, but they always will see opened sidebar.
Hello, I have 2 questions:
1. How do we disable the plugin styling in order to use the default theme styling? Is there an option for that? 2. How do we disable loading the plugin files on any pages not using this plugin? in other words only enable it on the product-category pages?
Thank you for your time.
Hello Antoine14
1. The plugin contains minimum CSS styles for Filters widget that provide its correct work and look. Unfortunately you can not disable them at all, but you can edit only CSS that do not meet your requirements. Also you can save them in Filters -> Settings -> Experimental -> Custom CSS
2. Plugin load its files on all pages as filtering may be applied on any of them. But if you need them only on product category pages, you can remove JS and CSS files via their handles and functions
wp_deregister_script(); and wp_deregister_style();
Handles list is next:
JS - ‘wpc-filter-everything’
CSS - ‘wpc-filter-everything-custom’ - ‘wpc-filter-everything’
