Hi there,
I am using a combination of Elementor, ACF and CPT UI using taxonomies. My website is built using Elementor and the custom post types all have their own taxonomies. The problem I am currently facing is that the filters simply don’t work.
I have tried it in multiple ways, from simple post types to store products and more. Nothing seems to work. Of course, I am using the latest plugin version bought from CodeCanyon and have done some minor configuration. See screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/Js7DU0o.png
Further info will be provided via PM as suggested.
Thanks in advance 
Hi lars_c
Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.
It looks lke you didn’t select correct WP_Query in the “And what to filter?” field in a Filter Set. You have to experiment with different values in this dropdown field to find correct value. Also if you use WPML and you have products in different languages you should make Filter Set post type translatable in the WPML settings.
Please, try to make these steps and they should help you to make it work.
Hi, i have the pro version for both your plugin as well as elementor pro. However, I cannot find element when search filter. I saw this https://prnt.sc/26ntw55 but not on mine. Also i don’t know where to put the license key. I have try uninstalled, delete and install again.
Hi najibx
Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO
It is known problem with Elementor in its last verisons. You can not even find regular WordPress widgets in the Elementor search fied in its sidebar and I don’t know why. Just try please to scroll the Elementor sidebar to the bottom and select a Filter Everything widget.
You are right. Searching element cannot find widgets, but it’s there.
Hello, I haven’t found the answer to my question. I am working on an e-commerce website that sells food and wine. I would like to apply different filters to each category. For example I have about 10 different pages that sell wine, can I apply the same filters to those 10 pages (and not to others)? In the field “Where to filter? Specify page(s) where posts that should be filtered are located” it seems I can select only one category page.
Thanks in advance for the help
Hi chloeculinaries
Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.
In general you are right – you can not select more than one category (or any other taxonomy) page and this restriction has its own technical reason.
But you can make a trick:
– to point both your Filter sets to the “All archive pages for this Post Type”
- to add two Filters widgets to common sidebar for both type of pages. They both will be shown on all your Shop pages.
- to hide unnecessary widget dependently from the type of the page. You can do this by CSS adjustments as every Filters widget has itw own unique CSS id and class. Also evrery page contains its own CSS class in body and html tags.
You can also use Filters widget shortcodes https://filtereverything.pro/resources/shortcodes/ instead of widgets and for example plugin Widget logic to determine what exaclty Filter Set to show on desired pages.
Hello, I have many custom taxonomies and I would like to know if it possible to filtered with this plugin on frontend. Thank you, m
Hi marcoatmac
Thank you for your interest in Filter Everything PRO.
Yes, sure. You can filter by your custom taxonomies with this plugin.
Hi. I recently purchased this plugin for a charity site which is both English and Spanish using WPML. I noticed I am get a lot of DB errors due to the interation between the two plugins, so I worte to WPML support. Their answer was as follows:
“Filter everything pro is currently not listed or tested by our team, however, they do mention on their product that they are compatible with WPML.
I’d suggest contacting the authors as they do know their code best and most likely need to adjust something to fix these database warnings.”
So here I am contacting the author as they state it is Everything Filter Pro casuing the errors. I am pasting in one of the many lines from my error log to show what is happening:
[26-Jul-2022 07:01:47 UTC] WordPress database error Lost connection to MySQL server during query for query SELECT id FROM wp_icl_strings WHERE BINARY value=’lost-password’ AND context=’WP Endpoints’ AND name = ‘lost-password’ LIMIT 1 made by require(‘wp-blog-header.php’), require_once(‘wp-load.php’), require_once(‘wp-config.php’), require_once(‘wp-settings.php’), do_action(‘init’), WP_Hook->do_action, WP_Hook->apply_filters, FlrtFilter->oneTwoThreeGo, FilterEverything\Filter\Plugin->__construct, FilterEverything\Filter\WpManager->init, WP_Rewrite->wp_rewrite_rules, get_option, apply_filters(‘option_rewrite_rules’), WP_Hook->apply_filters, WPML_Endpoints_Support->translate_endpoints_in_rewrite_rules, WPML_Endpoints_Support->get_endpoint_translation, WPML_Endpoints_Support->register_endpoint_string, icl_get_string_id, WPML_ST_String_Factory->get_string_id
Please can you help me with this.
Many thanks in advance.
Hi sherbertspain
Thank you for purchasing the plugin and for your patience.
In general you are the first person who reported such problem between Fitler Everything and WPML. I’m not sure that reason is exactly in Filter Everything plugin, but I can guess that it related with the data you tried to filter by and your MySQL server capabilities.
For example you have too many posts with meta key or taxonomy terms by which you tried to filter. And your MySQL server was not able handle too many data at that moment. Because your log message says only that your web-server lost connection with your MySQL server. But what was the reason of the loosing of the connection it does not say.
As option you can ask you hosting provider support about this. Or as option try to use another tariff plan that provides more performance and capabilities (more RAM, more CPU and so on) and to test if all works fine.
Hi thank you for providing great support. We were able to launch https://infinity.careers/ but one issue our users are having is for all of the results to show when the load more button is selected. Right now, if 20 products are available, it will show all 20, but if 30 products are available, it shows the first 20, and the load more button doesn’t show the remaining 10 – it has random products. Please let me know if there are any settings to prevent this. Thanks!
Hi bbmarket
In general it depends from the Load more button you use and its algorithm that calculates and loads next page posts. Some of them are not compatible with Filter Everything out of the box and they require additional adjustments to make them work. This article can be useful in resolving of this problem – https://filtereverything.pro/resources/ajax-related-problems/
Others are compatible by default. I can recommend you to use only this, which I know is compatible – https://wordpress.org/plugins/load-more-products-for-woocommerce/
Hi I opened a ticket and still no response but I see you have been active here? We are under pressure to get the site launched can you advise please thanks
Hello matrixinternet-ie
I checked credentials your sent me, but I stil did not receive login and password for /wp-admin of your site as I asked about. Please, send me credentials to /wp-admin.
Hi thanks for getting back, we sent it and a seperate email to the support email…... I have resent it let me know if you get it and I will follow up with PM …. please keep an eye out for it and let me know if you got it this time – We are under pressure now and have tested a different plugin which works fine, and will need to switch to that if we cant get it sorted by tomorrow
HI I sent it and I sent the PM, I missed thast last time sorry
Any update? Thanks?
OK I think we fixed this by creating a new page as opposed to translating the original page
Hi matrixinternet-ie
Thank you for credentials.
I checked your site and realized that you have some security restrictions and this can be the reason of the problem. To find all WP_Queries on the page, Filter Everything should load the page with filtered posts/products. And if this page can not be loaded, the plugin can not find any WP_Queires on it. You have to solve this security issue first to be able to select appropriate WP_Query.
I’ve sent you screenshot with the problem on your email.
I already sent how to get around the restriction by adding the server IP to your hosts fiile and the issue is the same on a test server without that security restriction. The only way the plugin will work is if a seperate untranslated page is set up for each language which is a headache for redirects
I thought I have fixed but now its broke again on the French Resouces filter after I resaved and there is no way to pick a Filter again. I sent how to get around the security block by PM and I senty FTP details, if you could check that would be great as the ticket is open 2 weeks now
Hi matrixinternet-ie
As I understand form your words you was able to select appropriate WP_Query at the first time (after you created the page) but was not able to do this when you opened your Filter Set at the second time. It seems you WP_Query on the selected page were cached. I saw such problem several time on other sites.
As solution you can update your page with posts (in the /wp-admin Edit -> Update) and immediately open your Filter Set and select this page again without opening it on frontend. In this case usually you can catch uncached WP_Query.
Hi, first of all I wanted to let you know that I am really liking the plug in so far. My question is I am working on a car dealership with CPTs and Taxonomies. I would like to show the manufacturer logo on my filter. Right now the makes logo are uploaded as terms meta field. How can show them in my filer or should I upload the make’s logo in a different way to make it work? I got the idea from the woocommerce demo in your site
Also, I agree that been able to assign a color to a color filter would be a gamer changer for this plugin. I like the direction the plug in is going. I was using JetsmartFilters before but I think yours is way better optimized for responsive websites.Hi rixmtz
Thank you for purchasing the plugin.
You can use this code example https://gist.github.com/wpserve/b0645a135cf80760dd6f871e0297693c that add brand images as icons for terms for the filter by pwb-brand taxonomy. You can replace in this code pwb-brand with your taxonomy name and also to replace pwb_brand_image meta key for image field with your own meta key.
I’d like to request a refund of the purchase price. After much testing i’ve determined the product is unfortunately not going to work for me. How do i go about getting a refund?
Hi jeffgleason
Yes, sure. You always can request a refund and it will be processed but you have to know that it should match to any item of the Refund Policy Rules – https://codecanyon.net/page/customer_refund_policy
Also if you need to get support help with plugin configuring you can ask here in comments about this and provide details about your problem.
Hi Andrii,
We’re trying to move where the SEO description is appearing. We’re using Oxygen and have a custom product archive page. We’re using the product loop so the SEO description is appearing after the products. However we want the text to appear before the product loop in a specific div.
Can we suppress the after the product loop behaviour?
We tried using get_the_archive_description to insert it in the correct place but that just showed us the default text for the shop page while still showing the SEO description after the product loop.
Regards, Peter
Hi Peter
You can use this code example for that:
add_action('wp_head', 'wpc_add_filters_seo_description');
function wpc_add_filters_seo_description(){
if( class_exists( 'FilterEverything\Filter\Container' ) ){
$seoFrontEnd = FilterEverything\Filter\Container::instance()->getSeoFrontendService();
$your_new_hook = 'woocommerce_archive_description';
remove_action('woocommerce_after_shop_loop', [ $seoFrontEnd, 'showSeoDescription' ], 5);
add_action( $your_new_hook, [ $seoFrontEnd, 'showSeoDescription' ] );
}
}
You can insert it in the functions.php file of your active theme.
Доброго дня. Писав на контактс на сайті плагіну але видно ви тільки тут відповідаєте.
В мене є питання по теоретично можливому кастомному функціоналу SEO правил, а саме пермалінків в них. Чи теоретично можливо розширити функціонал щоб можна було кастомізувати урл? Звісно за окрему плату якщо ви надаєте послуги кастомної розробки.
а) Або щоб урли були без префіксів? Тобто /cars/bmw/white/ а не /cars/brand-bwm/color-white/. б) Або навіть повністю кастомно задавати наприклад /best-white-bwm-cars/.
Звучить ніби це може створити багато конфліктів в системі але є приклади сайтів де це працює.
І ще одне запитання, чи можна обирати яку логіку побудови урлів фільтрів використовувати? Тобто чи можна повернутись від SEO оптимізованих урлів до урлів з динамічними параметрами? Ато в мене вийшов конфлікт з плагіном для багатомовності на мультисайті і генерується безкінечна кількість 404 і поки що я не знайшов вирішення)
Дякую
Hi olegyemchuk
Indeed, in terms of support of the plugin I can only give you answer here in the comments section.
1. About permalinks without prefixes. I know that this is technically possible, but it will load plugin code and DB much more. So I will not modify the plugin to use URLs without prefixes. (As argument I can provide you with fact that WordPress out of the box uses prefixes for categories, tags, post types, taxonomies and other things)
And unfortunately I have no time for such paid modifications. Maybe some freelancers on Upwork have this time.
define( 'FLRT_PERMALINKS_ENABLED', false );
Зрозуміло. Дякую)
Hi again. Regarding issue number 2. Apparently going back to URLs with parameters doesn’t fix the issue. So now I’m not sure it’s the issue of plugins’ compatibility. Initially, I was using standard Woocommerce filters and it wasn’t generating such an issue on multilingual multisite.
So for example if we have categories URLs like:
English site -> /cars/ Spanish site -> /es/coches/
Without the filter on, the language switcher redirects the user to the correct URL on the Spanish website (/es/coches/).
But when the filter is on (/cars/?brand=bmw, or /cars/brand-bwm/ in case of seo friendly URLs), language switcher leads to /es/cars/?brand=bmw (or /es/cars/brand-bwm/), which is 404.
When I was using standard Woocommerce filters, /cars/?brand=bmw would lead to /es/coches/?brand=bmw. That’s why now I think that maybe there is some issue with how the Filtering Everything works on Multilingual Multisites.
I sent access details in the dm.
Update. I additionaly tested another plugin with clear filter URLs, and it doesn’t cause the above-mentioned conflict and works like a standard woo filter (links to top level category). So I assume there is indeed something in your plugin that triggers the described issue. I’d be thankful if there is the way to solve it.
I’ve sent more info in the dm.
Hi olegyemchuk
Sorry for the late response and thank you for your patience.
Filter Everything is compatible with WPML and Polylang multilanguage plugins. If you get 404 errors for some URLs usually reasons could be next:
- some filter term matches to the URL of a page or category URL. In this case most terms works fine, but one or several do not work. Note – this term may be in a Filter Sets stored in WordPress trash, so please remove such Filter Sets from the trash.
- it coulb be conflict with Permalink Manager plugin. Solution – https://codecanyon.net/comments/27821343
Hi. I don’t use wplm or polylang. Instead it’s multilang multisite from welaunch ( they actually were asking you seo related questions in this thread as well).
Also, turning off permalinks doesn’t work (I also thought of this in the first place but it doesn’t solve the issue)
I’ve shared full access details with you. If you could suggest what possibly could be the issue, that would be great.
I also fully removed permalinks plugin just in case. It doesn’t fix the issue neither.
Hi, olegyemchuk.
Thank you for your credentials, but it seems they do not work for me. Check them please and let me know here in the comments thread.
Hi. Sorry for that. I’ve resent new credentials
Thank you Oleg.
I checked this and it looks like some translated pages work and filtering also work on them. But some do not work. It looks like you have filter(s) with terms that have slugs that match to your language URLs. For example /{filterprefix}-es/ where “es” is also URL language id.
I could check this more deeply if you provide my user access to the plugins admin page. I need install Updraft plus and Query Monitor plugins and also have ability to edit plugin files.
Sent super admin access in the dm)
Hi again) I wasn’t able to find the filtered URLs that don’t cause 404 when changing the language) If you found some, please share them in the dm) Also, yo can reverse the URL structure to paramaters (like in free version) and the issue with 404 remains, so I’m not sure it’s a slug issue. Anyways, let me know if you were able to investigate this issue further.
Hi Stepasyuk—love the plugin! Pretty much does everything and then some. However I’ve come across a client who has a peculiar request—display filters on the index page (all good), but wants to have a certain filter selected by default? Is this doable? I guess there are other possible workarounds /two separate pages wo ajax/ and index page just a static HTML copy of the filters, but this creates all sorts of other SEO issues. Cheers and thank you in advance!
Hi millend
Thank you for your warm words about the plugin.
In general it is possible only in one way – your homepage url should contain selected filters. For example https://example.com/filter1-value1/filter2-value2/ All other attemts to make them selected requires a lot of work and to modify plugin’s code.
Hi! recently I bought this Plug In It worcks fantastic, but there is a tag and attribute archive its broken because of the plug in. But no every Product archive, Only an espesific tag and attribute archive. May you help me pleas. https://www.loom.com/share/0c81ce1cd08d4fa6b6efad532d6f4f44
Hi Maxjerez
Thank you for your warm words about the plugin.
Usually such problem appears because you may use URL prefix that is equal to some your term slug. Try please to check your URL prefixes in Filters -> Settings -> URL Prefixes and edit suspicous to make them different from terms on your site. Also if you have any Filter Sets in your trash, please clean it. This should help you.
My little problem is that in my range filter (where you can choose price), prices are show like that “250000” but in France we normaly write like that “250 000”.
Do you have an idea to change that ? Thank your for your help
PS: this plugin is perfect
Hi portaltheo
Already answered you on WordPress.org support forum.
Hi Stepasyuk, is there anyway to make the category list show subcategories under the parent categories rather than it looking like a completely separate category?
Hi IASupport
Thank you for your interest in Filter Everything. Here is support for the PRO users who purchased the plugin. Please, write your request from the account, where you purchased the plugin or ask on WordPress.org forum where is support of the Free version.
Thank you for your understanding.
ok, I’ll ask over there. Thanks.
Hi, the pro version makes my front pages broken, please check the screen record via this link: https://www.loom.com/share/db35d0547dc447b38ef82ff1e04be956
Hi serwall
Thank you for purchasing the plugin and for your detailed video.
It is known problem. Please, update the plugin to the latest v 1.6.5 which is compatible with WP6.0 You can download it from your account on CodeCanyon and update via Plugins -> Add New -> Upload plugin -> Replace current with new. Do not forget to create a DB backup before that.
Hello Stepasyuk, I wrote comment in our last thread but with no answer until now, could you check and help?
Best regards!
Hi Netarto
Sorry for the late response and thank you for your patience. I already answered on your question.
I would like to buy your awesome plugin, but in the free version the filtering does not work on the Rehub theme where Elementor and Deal/Coupon grid block is used. When I use the Archive Posts block the filtering works normally. Can you help me with this?
Hi Yuriix
Thank you for your interest in Filter Everything plugin.
For Elementor and Deal/Coupon grid block you have to use PRO version only because Free version does not support its filtering.
Is there any guarantee that if I purchase your plugin it will work or can you help me get it working?
It will work of course and if you will have problems with plugin configuring after reading documentation I can help you with this.
Hello does the plugin “Filter Everything — WordPress/WooCommerce Product Filter” also filter Variable products using the On sale checkbox OR only Simple Products please? regards
Can you answer to my comment please? Regards
Hi philippesave
Thank you for your interest in Filter Everything PRO.
It support filtering Variable products by properties in variation. For this you have to select appropriate checkbox “Use for Variations ” – https://prnt.sc/UehzMGfyUzzE
Ok Great !! thks
Hi! recently I bought this fantastic plugin but I want to ask you if is possible select in
Where to filter? Apply filtering if page is:
the atributes as filters.
Thanks
Hi Elalceweb
Thank you for your warm words about the plugin.
I’m not sure I understood your question clearly. If you need to add Filters widget on your product attribute page(s) you can select in the “Where to filter?” field values – Product attribute (Brand, Color etc) – Any product attribute (or specific).
If you need to create filter by some Product attribute you have to click on Add Filter and select appropriate attribute in the “Filter by” field.
Hi! Sorry for answer so late, I don´t see section, show attribute in filters, only I see tags
Hi Elalceweb
Send me please link to the screenshot of the Filter By dropdown field when it is opened. If you have public attribute pages, they should appear in this field.
Hi! thanks, I attached video: https://youtu.be/9DYn2cTo7ZE 
Ok, thank you for the video.
As I see there are no any WooCommerce attributes in the “Where to filter?” dropdown. The reason of this can be:
- you did not create WooCommerce attributes yet.
- you have already created attributes, but some 3rd party plugin or code made them non-public taxonomies.
Please, check this on your side.
Hi! I proved both but nothing 
Attributtes is on products and desactivated all plugins
Hi! I proved both but nothing Attributes is on products and deactivate all plugins
I tried on other websites and attributes are not seen either.
thanks
Solved!
Hi Elalceweb
I’m glad that your problem is already solved
