Hi! First of all thank you very much for the perfect and functional plugin! We use PRO version and and faced such an issue. There is a sale page in the e-shop. We need to make a different sorting of product categories on this particular page. I mean that all archive pages have an alphabetical sorting, but on the sale page we need to display them as in the menu. Will the sorting by ID of terms work or how to activate the manual sorting (it’s inactive now)? And how to display this another filter on the sale page?

Hello Raposa28

Thank you for using the plugin. But support is available only for account that purchased the plugin. Please write your support request from such account or purchase the plugin from current.

I have purchased Pro version and its pretty useful and has cool features. recommended!

But I need some support about few things :

1) I have set Apply mode and hidden some filters while category is not selected. but it takes too much time after ticking one of the category and after 5-6 seconds it will load new filters. First i should easily choose filters and then press Apply/Ok to see the results, but this is too time consuming to choose few filters. kindly check the video or try it yourself at: superstore.ge or view video https://youtu.be/1BpsjQVsqpE

2) as you see in few fields translation issues occur: ka:, how do I fix it?

3) How to put just text search for product titles or descriptions? thank you in advance.

1) No, you can disable and remove the Free one. But before that please make DB backup for any case. PRO version has no automatically updates, you should receive notification from CodeCanyon about the new version if you subsribed on these type of notifications.

2) HTTP error 400 is Bad request. Maybe the problem is that saving data for too much variations is not allowed by your server configuration. You can try to increase it by changing max_input_vars value in PHP or post_max_size You have to ask your hosting support to help with this.

1) Got it, thanks. 2) Only when your plugin is ON we face that error. otherwise variations work well. BTW we have around 5K products on website.

I understand your logic, but the reason of such problem could be any other plugin that increcases input vars count. To solve this problem you have to change configuration on your server.

Similar problem was with one of my customers 2 months ago – https://codecanyon.net/author_dashboard?filter=all&term=max_input_vars#comment_27741739 The customer solved it. Your case is the second for 993 PRO and over 4000 Free plugin’s installations. It is obvious that it is not bug of the plugin.

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.

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/supplements

Please 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?

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!

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=2014

This 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.

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.

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.
