A great plugin. 2 requests if i may. The ability to duplicate filter sets would be nice and the option to add more places to add a filter within the Where to filter? under settings. Specifically targetting multiple categories with the same filter. Other than that its a nice plugin and allot easier to configure than other filters i have used in the past.
Hello matlamont
Thank you for purchasing the plugin and for your advices.
Indeed, these features are cool idea and I planned to add them in future. But still had no time to do that because there are some more important thing should be done for the plugin.
I will do that and notify you here in this comments thread. This will not be soon, but definitely will be.
No problem, i have ran into an issue though where a filter is not working when assigned to any category. I have to use a filter set per category. Not sure if that is a bug or a configuration issue. I’m using DIVI and configured the layout builder to diplay the category pages.
The option “Any Category (for common query across all Category pages)” works only for common (the same) WP Query that presents on all Category pages. You have to experiment with the “And what to filter?” value in dropdown to find what exactly WP_Query works for you.
As option you can select “All archive pages for this Post Type” that also will work on all Product category pages.
Thanks, i’ll give that a try
Hi! We have a strange problem/bug with one of our filter. It don’t know if it could be a conflict with another plugin.
We have a filter set with 3 filters on a page (2 taxonomies and one custom_field).
The problem is that every time we add or update a post, the filter using a custom_field disappears.
The only way to bring this third filter back is to go in that “filter set” and save it again.
Any idea what could cause this problem? We use pods on our site.
I did a lot of trials, changing order, changing de type of filter, recreating the filter.
One thing to note: if I uncheck “Hide empty Filters”, the filter appears, but it is empty. So it looks like Filter everything can’t access the custom_field after some change in the website content (or database). But saving the filter again reestablish a connection?
Hi expomangersante
FYI – filter terms are stored in cache to make filtering work faster. This cache is updated every time when you update any post or product on your site. You also can refresh the cache if you add to your site URL special parameter.
For example your site is example.com In this case URL for refresh the cache will be example.com/?reset_filters_cache=true Add please this parameter to your site URL, open the page and cache will be cleared and your Custom Field filter should work as expected.
Thanks Stepasyuk,
I tried ”?reset_filters_cache=true”.
Yes, the hidden filter is back. So it works when I add your parameter to the URL on the pages that contains the filter.
But I don’t see how to integrate that in the website. Because I need to go on each pages that contains the filter to reload the page using those URL parameters.
There’s also the issue if someone get to our website with a direct link. That link doesn’t contain the cache reset parameter, so it wouldn’t refresh the cache.
The problem seems that the filter automatic update doesn’t work when updating a post. So I’d rather fix that problem.
Otherwise, is there a way (or a hook) to add something in function.php to update the cache automatically after updating a post?
expomangersante
FYI ”?reset_filters_cache=true” should be opened once to reset all filters cache on all pages.
From your words it seems you use a cache plugin that show you cached pages and you do not see correct filter terms after any updates on your site.
In this case my advice is to clear both – filters cache and your cache plugin cache after any changes on your site.
Hello, I ma having issues with my install. I did have it working but randomly it stopped. it does not show up on my shop page as I have assigned it to.
Hello justchris86
It seems you have to check your Filter Set configuration maybe you changed something in your Shop or site settings and current Filter Set config does not match to the Shop page.
Or maybe your Filters widget was removed from the page.
Hi Stepasyuk, everything works well, however I would have one question. I am using drop down filter type. The default value of the filter is ”- select filterName -” I would like to remove the select piece or completely override this text. Is it possible ? Thank you
Hi dvidh2
Thank you for purchasing the plugin.
Yes, sure. It is possible. You can override filter dropdown template in accordance with this article https://filtereverything.pro/resources/templates-overriding/ and change that phrase to your own.
Hello, I am using MyListing theme, which creates custom post types. I let users create their business page and inside those pages I place the Woocommerce [products] shortcode to display their products. 1- is it possible to place filter and sorting widget on all of those pages with the Pro version? how can I select those pages all together? 2- the [products] shortcode is placed inside a tab, might it be a problem for the filter to work correctly? (e.g. the url is myweb.com/page1/#products) 3- can I pass arguments to the filter shortcode in order to display only the products added by a defined user? it is like a post author filter, but I need to pass the author ID as an argument instead of adding a filtering field, otherwise users could display products by author A inside the business page of author B 4- in case the previous question is not possibile but I am able to pre-filter products (based on author ID), will the filter be only populated by terms of the displayed products instead of all the terms of all the products in the catalogue? and subsequently filter only among those pre-filtered products?
Hi, I have tried to add the post filter to my blog page and selected all wp_query in it but still the post filter didn’t work to filter the post in my blog page. It still showing all posts after I checked the category to filter.
https://siriusa.asia/supplementsPlease help. FYI, I am using a customized post list to organize my posts, is it affected the plugin?
Okay, it seems it will be much faster if I check it myself.
Make please support preparations in accordance with this document and let me know here in comments that you did it.
Hi, I have sent you the credentials through email. Kindly check for it. Thank you.
Hi chrislee275
You had to select correct WP_Query for your Posts module. This query is Post query #4 in your case – https://prnt.sc/7KSk6pwLBbtK
Here is working filtering example – https://siriusa.asia/supplements/category-founder/
Super awesome plugin 
just wanted to say that!
Thank you very much!
I’m very happy to hear this
Hi,
I have some questions before I buy this plugin.
1. Can I add a custom list of tags/taxonomy to show inside of all available(FREE)? 2. When you will add support for multi-select? I see you some replay from a year ago and still not added that feature requested by many users here.
Also, one more question. I see you have added wpc_filter_taxonomy_term_name. Are any hooks to change slug? I want to show something like prefixURL-customslug inside of prefixURL-tagslug.
Can I order the terms selected by custom order? Like IDS (ID1, ID251, ID213, and so on)?
Thanks!
Would you be able to share the css you used on your demo site?
Hello buzzinbilly
In general it is not private anyway, because if you are familiar with web development a bit you always can copy any CSS from almost any site. But let me know what exactly CSS and on what demo site page you are interested in? In this case I can provide you with needed example.
Hello, I just purchesed filter everything pro and it works fine so far. I have 2 questions right now:
1. I am filtering a custom taxonomy (tag) via ACF output = term object but it shows only the ID’s in my checkboxes, how can i change that to names?
2. is there a way to get a search field so i can search bij custom fields? or do you suggest a other solution for this?
Hello edpeeters
Thank you for purchasing the plugin.
1. Here is code example that should be placed in the functions.php file of your active theme and that allows you to convert term IDs to term names - https://gist.github.com/wpserve/0634299bcc67d03bef77119dd20c86e72. For the moment you can only filter search results of the regular WordPress search. Separate search field by any field (taxonomy, post meta) compatible with Filter Everything will be added in future updates, but for the moment I can not say when it will be ready.
Thank you for this solution. I am not so good in coding so I have some problems
I am using Oxygen builder so I don’t have functions.php I put the code in the ‘code snippets’ plugin, do I have to add some more code in there?
I have a ACF field
Field-name: ingredient Field-type: Taxonomy Taxonomy: Tag
What do I have to exchange in the code?
‘product_cat’ for ingredient ?
edpeeters
You have to replace 'tax_object' with 'ingredient' if it is field key in your case. And also you have to replace 'product_cat' with 'post_tag' if you use Post tags.
thank you a lot, it works fine now.
Hello edpeeters
I’m glad to inform you that built-in Search Field compatible with filters, AJAX and that allows you to search Woo products by SKU was added to the latest plugin version 1.7.8. You can update it automatically if you have activated your License key or download zip here on CodeCanyon.
Thank you. Regards.
Hi,
is it possible to use the free/pro version of your filter plugin with woocommerce products component with manual selection ? It is very important to me to filter only upon products in manual selection. Thank you
Hi dvidh2
Thank you for your interest in Filter Everything PRO.
Yes, it is possible with PRO version of the plugin as only it allows you to filter custom WP_Queries. Note – this implies that manually selected products relates to the WP_Query that receives them from DB.
Thank you.
is this plugin is compatible with listeo and listingpro listing directory sites ?
Should be compatible. But as I said you have to ask about support for the free version on WordPress.org forum – https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/filter-everything/
Hi i have trying to get the filter everything to show in widget or elementor page showing nothing why is that. i tried in three website but it’s not showing i followed the documentation as it is
Hi basithibnukamil.
Thank you for your interest in Filter Everything.
This comments section is provided to support users who purchased the plugin. As I see you didn’t do that and I can only suggest you to ask about support for the free version on WordPress.org forum – https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/filter-everything/
My client have purchased and I’m working on it . I working on pro version only filter can not be view at any place widget or elementor
Ok, sure. I believe in this. But Rules are Rules, ask please you client to write question from its account and I will answer him. Otherwise I can not provide any support.
Hello, I have a problem with the filtering not working based on a meta_query that I have.
I have a query setup like this:
add_action( ‘elementor/query/allvehiclestest’, function( $query ) { });
// Set the custom post type
$query->set( 'post_type', [ 'vehicle-details' ] );
if (!empty($_GET["search"])) {
$searchText = $_GET["search"];
}$meta_query[] = array(
'key' => 'searchfields',
'value' => $searchText,
'compare' => 'LIKE',
);$query->set( 'meta_query', $meta_query );
$query->set( 'order', 'ASC' );
$query->set( 'orderby', 'images' );And I have a page: https://bulldogmotors.vincuestaging.com/inventory/ that works great as far as the filtering goes on a custom post type.
You can see inside of the allvehiclestest query I have the ability to listen for a search query string – if I pass this in, like this: https://bulldogmotors.vincuestaging.com/inventory/?search=21-319 the grid correctly returns 1 vehicle but the filtering still shows ALL the possible filters as if nothing has been searched.
How do we get the filtering to listen to the query in the case of it having a query string of search?
Thank you so much for your time!
Hello thebriann
Thank you for your review. In your case it is not so easy task and it requires to modify plugin’s code.
As option I can suggest you to create filter by meta key ‘searchfields’ and allow your visitors to select one of available values. If there are too many values you can use search field for filter terms like this on the demo page – https://demo.filtereverything.pro/product-category/clothing/women/color-black/c-kind-dress/?max_price=250
This unfortunately is not feasible. I need to be able to have a text box on the homepage for people to search for things and take them to our search results page, and have the results filtered by that keyword based on what meta fields I want to search on. It appears the custom query ID that Elementor provides is not the same thing that Filter Everything functions off of.
How is anyone else creating search result pages with filtering and searching? I think it would be incredibly useful to have a search result page that you can get to by a search string that would have paired down the results already, then filter based off of that.
Hello thebriann
Filterring of the search results is possilbe (please, see example 1 and example 2)
But the search algorithm you want to implement is not classic WP_Query search. Classic WP_Query search contains special query parameter “s” and it can be filtered by FIlter Everything plugin.
But you want to create Meta query with dynamic meta field value. Hypotetically it is possible to implement with Filter Everything, but it requires modification of the plugin code.
This can be done by experienced PHP developer only and you will not have ability to update the plugin after that. If you have such a developer I can provide him with additional information, how to implement this.
Pass on the information please.
Also I wanted to express my condolences to the situation over there. Hope you’re staying safe, and we are incredibly impressed that you are staying in touch with everyone on here.
Okay we have this archive page made, one is the defaut search and one is the direct post type search:
https://bulldogmotors.vincuestaging.com/?s=2014 https://bulldogmotors.vincuestaging.com/vehicle-details/?s=2014This has their own filter widget on the left, with 2 options for now, year and make.. I’ve saved it using the only query it could find.
You can see that it isn’t filtering anything at all, but if you go directly to https://bulldogmotors.vincuestaging.com/vehicle-details/ it is able to filter the items correctly.
Hello thebriann
Thank you for your condolences. This is really awful all that the russians are doing in my country, they are absolute barbarians and killed more than 100 ukrainian children.
About filtering.
It seems you did something wrong when you tried to configure filtering search results. In general plugin works with it as I mentioned above.
If you want to allow Filter Everything to filter your dynamic meta_query you have to add next code in the filter /filter-everything-pro/src/EntityManager.php line 766 replace this
if( $query_on_the_page ){
if( isset( $theGet['s'] ) ){
$query_vars['s'] = $theGet['s'];
}
}
with this
if( $query_on_the_page ){
if( isset( $theGet['s'] ) ){
$query_vars['s'] = $theGet['s'];
}
if( isset( $theGet['search'] ) ){
$set_filter_query->set( 'meta_query', array(
array(
'key' => 'searchfields',
'value' => $theGet['search'],
'compare' => 'LIKE',
)
) );
}
}
This should allow you to achieve your goal. P.S. I provide this code “as is” and I will not provide its support if you will not be able to impement it. Probably you have to ask a developer to help you with this.
Hi. When I uploaded the files in online. Custom CSS is not working but in Localhost its working. How to fix it.
Hi logakarthikeyan
I’m not sure I can help you with this information only, it is not enough to solve the problem. But I guess that maybe it is files permissions related problem. If you change permissions for uploaded files to 775 or even 777 it could help you.
Optionally you can ask your hosting provider support to help with this problem. It seems it depends from your server configuration rather than from plugin’s code or settings.
Ok thanks. If products is “0” how we can hide them automatically from category.
I’m not sure I understood you clear. But if you mean how to hide empty filter terms (that contains 0 products) you can activate option Empty terms – Always hide or Hide in the initial FIlters only.
But if you mean to hide pharse “Show 0 results” above products grid, you have to modify your template file.
Thanks.
Hi, can you tell me, why is the filter type “range” grayed out (can’t be selected), what needs to be done, in order to add a range filter to a filter set? Latest pro version is installed.
Update: It looks like it needs to be a custom_field_num, issue solved
Hi samuelmaeder
Thank you for purchasing the plugin.
You are absolutely right – for the moment range slider is available for Custom Field filters only. But I will add ability to support it in taxonomy filters.
Hello samuelmaeder
I’m glad to notify you that now numeric filter is also available for taxonomies. This new type of filter (Taxonomy Numeric) is available in the latest plugin version 1.7.0 available here on CodeCanyon.
Hello Stepasyuk,
just purchased your Filter Everything PRO Plugin and tried to setup a Filter for Custom Fields of job offers, but nevertheless what settings I specify, no filter occurs in the frontend.
Would be great if you take a look on it in my testing environment: http://bda-aerztevermittlung.de/stellenangebote-neu/ on this page I’d like to filter for a custom field of the post type “Stellenangebote” named: position_employment_type.I guess you need to have a look inside the Wordpress Backend. How can I sent you the Admin login for testing in a secure way?
Thanks for your support and best regards, Heiko
Hello dbha
Thank you for purchasing the plugin.
In general you have to try to configure filters by yourself – this will allow you to re-configure them in the future. Otherwise you will aske me every time, when you need to change them
Here is manual for quick start – https://filtereverything.pro/resources/quickstart/
Try please to configure and if will not get the result, let me know what exaclty step was failed for you.
Hello dbha
I checked your credentials and realized that you did not add Filters Widget on your page and this was a reason why you did not see it. I added the widget via shortcode (also you can add it as widget in sidebar) to the top of the page and it works.
Also I temporary disabled AJAX as your CSS ID or Class of Posts Container is wrong.
I recommend you to read about AJAX this short paragraph – https://filtereverything.pro/resources/plugin-settings/#ajax
Goodmorning,
I have installed the filter and trying to use it but it is not working. I think it is because of the permalinks. What are the right settings for it to make it work?
Thanks!
Jan
Hello DKP_Jan
Thank you for purchasing the plugin.
First of all you have to try to configure it in accordance with documentation
If it will be unsuccessful for you, please let me know in what step you got the problem.
Why do ask about permalinks? Does your site use permalinks or does not? Please, let me know.
Hi Stepasyuk,
Yes, I have configured it in that way. Maybe you can take a look at this shop page: https://klimliving.nl/winkel/. Here you will see two filters. The above one is yours. Please click on one of the filters (for example with 2 products) and look how many and which products it will show. Next to this you can try this also with the filter below and you will see the difference.
When you have looked at this you will see your plugin will show the right one. Also you can look to the link and see what it does with both. Can you please let me know what there is going wrong?
Thanks!
DKP_Jan
It looks like you selected wrong WP_Query in the “And what to filter?” field of the Filter Set. Please try to experiment with different values in this field.
I checked the demo (https://demo.filtereverything.pro/product-category/clothing/women/), I have a question, can this filter sort be based on my own order, such as the size part, I hope it is xxs, The arrangement of xs,s,3xl,xxl,xl,l, can this plugin achieve this?
Hello WezonetTech
Thank you for your interest in Filter Everything PRO.
If you store size part in Custom Field you can create sorting option by this value.
Hi there I purchased your premium version, the filter is working on the shop page for website on desktop but does not show on smartphone or tablet. The filter widget is showing on smartphone/tablet but when you click on it, a blank filter page comes up. I followed your documentation by checking the pop up filters but it didn’t do anything.
I also have 3 error messages in the widget section: The “wpc_filters_widget” block has been affected by errors and may not work properly. Check the developer tools for more details. The “wpc_chips_widget” block has been affected by errors and may not work properly. Check the developer tools for more details. The “wpc_sorting_widget” block has been affected by errors and may not work properly. Check the developer tools for more details.
What can I do to make it work? I am using the Grano Theme. If you need any extra details, please do let me know. Many thanks!
Hello Dtoriop
Thank you for purchasing the plugin.
Send me please link to the page with the problem, I will check it and let you know. Optionally you can send it privately via PM.
Hi Thank you for your reply. I sent you more info by PM. Regards,
Dtoriop
Thank you for the link to your site.
I checked this and it seems you have separate off-canvas widget area for mobile devices. If you want to use it, you should create separate Filter Set with the same filters and seetings as for desktop and put Filters widget in this off-canvas area.
Optionally you can use native Pop-up filters widget and setup it in accordance with this article – https://filtereverything.pro/resources/mobile-devices/
Hi Thanks for your reply. I don’t see a separate off-canvas widget area for mobile, can you please tell me where it is located. Also, I still get the error messages in the widget area ‘he “wpc_filters_widget” block has been affected by errors and may not work properly. Check the developer tools for more details. ’ Thanks for your help.
Dtoriop
I mean this section on your site that is visible on mobile devices – https://prnt.sc/dOBZk4MuFjOe Usually it is called ‘off-canvas’ widget area.
About “wpc_filters_widget” block has been affected by errors and may not work properly – I don’t see this message and it seems I can not see developer tools because account you created for me has no administrator permissions.
Send me please screenshot with this error, maybe it will be more clear for me to understand what do you mean.
Hi Thanks for your message. It looks like I am only getting error message when I am using the Google Chrome Browser but not with Safari.
About the separate off canvas widget, yes I saw that but I don’t know how/where to create separate filter set so it works on both. I asked the theme support to help me out or if they can’t help, how much would you charge extra to make it work? Without the mobile function the plugin is useless for me. Many thanks!
Dtoriop
Unfortunately I do not provide any paid extra services except defined in the CodeCanyon item support policy. But I think if you find a developer for example on Upwork, this task could be done less than in 1 hour.
In general I can say that you can do it yourself – you have to create 2 equeal Filter Sets with the same filters and same value for the “Where to filter?” field and put one Filters widget in off-canvas widget area, and second Filters widget in your regular sidebar (you already did it)
Hi there
I got the reply below from my theme support, after I sent them everything you previous mentioned. Your plugin may not be compatible with my theme and I may need to find another filter that is.
“This plugin isn’t compatible with our theme, so you can’t see the filter when click “Filters” button in mobile.” You should contact plugin author and ask for support. See screenshot, the filter should appear in at bottom of page.”
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1bPX23tldua_D6Gu6yPnkV3dJ7yprB8uO/view?usp=sharingThanks for your help. Best regards,
Hi Dtoriop
In your case I see two ways to solve the problem:
1) To make steps described twicely above (create 2 Filter Sets and use theme off-canvas widget area and your theme Filters button to open it. Also you have to disable checkboxes Collapse filters widget and Enable Pop-up Filter widget to make filters widget visible on mobile) I think it would be the best way.
2) To use Pop-up filters widget for mobile, but in this case you have to ask your theme devlopers how to avoid removing sidebar content on mobile devices.
Your theme was designed in such way, that it removes all content from sidebar on mobile devices and restores it when you increase browser width more than 1000px. It’s bad, non-standard design solution, but your theme devlopers did it and this is the reason, why Pop-up filters widget can not be opened on mobile.
