Hello Thanks for making such a cool plugin!
I had some questions, i am using Avada and have this custom catalog page created that uses CPT- https://www.homecarepulse.com/hcpcoursecatalog/
I wanted to use your plugin to replace the side bar i have now and have your plugin interact with the post card element on the right. Is that possible? i have the pro version.
Hello dannyhomecarepulse
Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.
Sure, you can filter your posts inserted with Avada Post Card element. Just specify correct value in “Where to filter?” and in “And what to filter?” fields of the Filter Set.
Pre sale question. Does this work for non Woocommerce site? I’m building a listing platform and would love to implement such filter.
Hello kt168
Thank you for your interest in Filter Everythibg PRO. Yes, sure. It works for any WordPress site, not only for WooCommerce.
If your listing posts have their data you want to filter by in Taxonomies (category, tag, custom tax) or in Custom Fields, these posts can be filtered with Filter Everything PRO.
Thanks Stepasyuk. I’m having trouble filtering and showing the result due to 404 error. I’ve created a Custom Post Types “Listings” without an Archive Page, and slug of each post customised with WP Permalink Manager to get the desired structure. Currently using a general Wordpress page to query and display these posts via a Gutenberg WP_Query Block.
So now as for the FilterEverythingPro Settings, I’ve created a new filter set that will filter based on an ACF Text Field “listing_type”, and “type” is set as the URL prefix. However, whenever a filter is triggered, it will return 404 error because it’s trying to get data from a non-existent page. Ex: xxxxx.com/en/search/for-sale/type-apartment or (type-condominium) or (type-shophouse) etc.
Why is this happening and what can be done to make this work? Can’t seem to find a solution from all online support documents.
I found the problem. Filter Everything is not compatible with WP Permalink Manager. Turned off WP Permalink Manager and everything worked. However, WP Permalink Manager is a must for my site since I’ve been using it for years, turning off will affect the structure of my entire site and SEO. Do you have a fix to make this work with WP Permalink Manager? Thank you.
Hello Stepasuk. I’ve not received a support on this issue.
Hello kt168
Sorry for the late response, I didn’t feel good last serveral days.
Indeed, you can not combine arbitrary permalink structure with Filter Everything PRO defined URL structure. This task is unsolvable by definition. But you can use Filter Everything PRO without permalinks it is also possible. Just add in the functions.php of your active theme next code:define( 'FLRT_PERMALINKS_ENABLED', false );
I hope you’re feeling better now after some rest Stepasuk.
The main selling point of Filter Everything is to have access to filtered items via a specific slug for SEO. If I turn off the Filter Everything PRO permalinks as you’ve suggested, then it brings no benefits to SEO because I’m left with only the filter function, without the ability to set filter permalinks for SEO purposes.
kt168
Yes, i’m feeling better, thank you.
I understand this your position. But in theory you want to combine some system of URLs structure with arbitrary URLs. Technically it is possible (and Permalinks Manager plugin demonstrates this), but requires to use many server resources to handle all simultaneously – WordPress native structure, FIlter Everything structure and arbitrary URLs. That’s why I didn’t add to my plugin such mechanism which provides this.
So you have to decide what is better for you – to use FE permalinks with predefined structure and arbitrary slugs without Permalinks Manager or to use FE without permalinks but with Permalinks Manager.
Hello Stepasyuk, I got problem with displaying On sale products. My setup is https://hanak.top-me.eu/filter_sale.png but as U can see here: https://hanak.top-me.eu/kategorie-produktu/hodinky/sleva-yes/ filter is not showing any sale products. I can’t set filter logic to AND – could it be the reason? Thank you for your help. Olaf
Hello anoagency
I checked this and it seems now it works as expected – by the link you provided all 18 products are “On sale”. It seems you have different templates and different WP_Query for your Shop and Product category pages. So it requires to have two separate Filter Sets – for the Shop page and for your Product Category pages.
Hello Stepasyuk, thanks for reply, it was product import issue.
Hello I need to use Weglot with my website which is a plugin that is use on many websites (at least here in Europe) but their is incompatibility with your plugin. As soon as weglot is activated yours stop to work. Further more, even if I add all attribute to my product pages, is very often that the filters doesnt work. Could you heLp please? Thanks
Hello ?
Hello Sarahmey
Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO and sorry for the late response.
In general I didn’t test my plugin with Weglot, but it is 100% compatible with WPML and Polylang multilanguage plugins. I can only add your request to my development schedule and check/fix compatibility with Weglot in further updates. But unfortunately I can’t say you when exaclty this will happen as I have other more urgent development plans. I will notify you about this here in the comments section.
Hi there,
WooCommerce has a custom taxonomy for the visibility called “product_visibility”.
Your filter plugin does not exclude the “exclude from catalog” marked products.
https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce/wiki/2.6.x-to-3.0.0-Developer-Migration-Notes#product-visibility-is-taxonomy-based-instead-of-meta-based In query it looks like this:
'tax_query' => array(
array(
'taxonomy' => 'product_visibility',
'field' => 'name',
'terms' => 'exclude-from-catalog',
'operator' => 'NOT IN',
),
),
Is there any hook or option you can provide me to add this to the query filter?
Hi welaunch
I have to say you that Filter Everything does not affect on this default WooCommerce tax_query. I would be glad to help you with this more, but you support period already expired. That’s all I can say you for the moment.
I renewed support now. Please tell me what filter to use.
Ok, thank you.
In general WooCommerce adds this tax_query by default and Filter Everything does not remove it. It seems some of your 3rd party plugin or maybe custom code does it. Or even if you use a Page builder module for displaying products, you have to search reason there.
Usually normal WooCommerce WP_Query SQL (filtered with FE or not) looks like this:
SELECT
wfp_posts.ID
FROM
wfp_posts
WHERE
1 = 1 AND(
wfp_posts.ID NOT IN(
SELECT
object_id
FROM
wfp_term_relationships
WHERE
term_taxonomy_id IN(9)
)
) AND wfp_posts.post_type = 'product' AND(
(
wfp_posts.post_status = 'publish'
)
)
GROUP BY
wfp_posts.ID
ORDER BY
wfp_posts.post_date
DESC
,
wfp_posts.ID
DESC
Where wfp_posts.ID NOT IN(
SELECT
object_id
FROM
wfp_term_relationships
WHERE
term_taxonomy_id IN(9)
) is main part that excludes hidden from catalog products.
I recommed you to check your WP_Query with Query Monitor plugin. Whether the WP_Query contains such part and try to find what exactly pugin removes it.
You can do this simply by deactivation 50% of plugins and to check if this removes the problem. If yes – activate 50% from disabled, if no – deactivate 50% from active and step by step you can find it. Or try to check with another theme. Don’t forget to create DB backup before this.
Hello Stepasyuk
Is the SEO Rule only works with woocomerce, do they index the real estate properties as well? For the theme i am using the houzez real estate wp.
I have create filter for pages and also created the seo rule so they can index but those index url are still canonical to the main url. I already uncheck the discourage for search visibility.
Hi tbs_marketing
SEO Rule works for any post types including WooCommerce products and any custom post types. But I agree that usually it is not so easy to configure SEO Rule properly.
I added short instruction how do that correctly, please read it – https://filtereverything.pro/resources/seo-rules/#create-seo-rule
I have a lot of items in one of my filters. Is it possible to limit the items shown in a filter and add a show all button?
Hello PassionProject_CNX
You can set option Filter Container max height, px in Filers -> Settings. This will limit max height of filters container with too many terms and will add scrollbar in it.
You also can enable Search Field for a filter under More options section in its settings. This will allow quickly to search desired terms.
The option to Show more/Hide terms will be added in the plugin in next udpates. I hope this will happen in closest months.
I have a PRO license and it has been working well. I just updated all the plugins and WordPress 6.0.1 and now my posts aren’t showing up with the message “Nothing Found It seems we can’t find what you’re looking for. Perhaps searching can help.
Search for:”
I tried editing the filter and resaving, and changing the permalinks but so far not managed to get it to work again.
I have had to disable the plugin to allow my users to see the posts.
Hello, I can see you’ve replied to people after this question. This filter is a key part of my website. Just to clarify, when the filter was active, every page on the website was broken with the message listed in the first message above. I can’t enable to plugin unless I know you’re looking at it as it breaks my whole site.
Hello le_bytes
Thank you for using the plugin and sorry for the late response.
Please, update the plugin to the latest v 1.6.9 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.
Hi, thanks for the info. I managed to get the filter working again. However, something is wrong with the filter style. I have selected radio boxes and checkboxes, but in both instances, it looks like an underscore is in their place. You can view it here: https://asketchoffaith.com/all-crafts/
I’m glad that now it works for you.
This orange border and invisible checkboxes are result of the conflict with your theme (or Elementor) specified styles. Please, look on this screenshot – https://prnt.sc/_dwox06rxzoT
You have to change it in your Elementor configuration to avoid this conflict.
Filter Everything PRO does not work with my custom Search page. I am using AVADA. I have tried every WP Query listed and each one gives slightly different glitches.
Main Query: Shows filter, Search results are correct at first attempted search return, Item counts on filter appears correct. However when filter is applied, the pages now loads as if I searched for “a” and displays products with “a” in them. It also now loads the default search result layout below my custom search results element. Also when I go to back end of Filter Everything, I can now see a fourth search query. If I try Query 4, Filter does not show correct things to filter.
Search Query #1: Filter on sidebar shows no products found.
Search Query #2: SAME ERROR AS MAIN QUERY Shows filter, Search results are correct at first attempted search return, Item counts on filter appears correct. However when filter is applied, the pages now loads as if I searched for “a” and displays products with “a” in them. It also now loads the default search result layout below my custom search results element
Search Query #3: Filter shows some search results displayed, but also shows only (1) of search filter/ category/ tag etc… When filter is applied, the pages now loads as if I searched for “a” and displays products with “a” in them. It also now loads the default search result layout below my custom search results element
Hello vthing181
It sounds like you have some another 3rd party plugin that affects on your Search Query.
Please, send me credentials to your /wp-admin in accordance with this document I will check it myself.
I have sent you a PM with login details. Thank you for your help.
Hello vthing181
Thank you for the credentials you sent.
I checked your search resutls page and realized that there is another custom WP_Query that show products on this page. It seems you use something like custom template for this page or maybe you have custom code that modifies Main Search WP_Query.
In general Filter Everything expects that the Search query is default WordPress Search Query. If it is another or modified WP_Query results may be unexpected.
Unfrotunately this is something you have to check and fix by yourself or ask a developer to help you. I could only help you if there is bug in my plugin but this is not such case.
Hi Stepasyuk,
I’m using the free version of your plugin and it’s very good.
Question: I selected the option “Empty Terms > Always hide” to remove of filter products out of stock. Is this option used for this reason?
Asking because the filter is showing out of stock products anyways.
Is it possible to hide out of stock products to be listed by the fileter using free version or it’s possible only in pro?
Thanks in advance
Hi kassinf
Thank you for your interest in Filter Everything PRO.
1. In general no – this option is to hide unnecessary terms from a filter. For example you have 5 categories and only 4 from that have posts. But 1 category does not have. In this case such category is “empty” and is not necessary in filtering process as it always will contain 0 posts. So this option just hide such empty category or empty tag or another empty filter term.
2. About out of stock products – there are two ways:
a) you can create separate filter by Stock status, please see example – https://demo.filtereverything.pro/example/by-stock/
b) you can write additional hook to the WC_Query that sort products so that out of stock become in the end of product list. This way is better because you out of stock products will stay available for indexing by Google.
Is it possible to not show out of stock products in normal filter search like color or size? I really believe it’s very important feature.
Thanks
Hi Stepasyuk,
I got a perfect example to show you the problem we r facing.
1 – After select a size “1” in filter it shows some products, all fine until here.
2 – Please take a look at the third product in the line “the yellow one”
3 – This product have in variations the size “1” but it’s out of stock.
How can I make this product not appear on the size 1 list since this size is out of stock?
Please look here: https://ibb.co/gjxpKdL
If it’s a feature of PRO version please let me know and I will be more than happy to buy it.
Thanks in advance…
Hi, after installing the pro version there are some errors on the page.
It also seems that it is not possible to view the filter on the shop page, it is only possible to view it as a widget
Thanks
https://prnt.sc/Dmgbh2iU-5Y9The free version did not give this message
Hello samuelasgarbossa
Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.
Please, send me credentials to your /wp-admin in accordance with this document I will check this myself, maybe there is bug in the plugin.
The plugins links are the same, please send the query monitor link.
Hi samuelasgarbossa
Thank you for your credentials.
I checked your site and realized that you have almost 90K products, > 700 Product categories in your database and only 2Gb RAM on your hosting. For such huge amount of products and categories you have to use more powerful web-server.
Error messages you provided means only one – your web-server has no enough resources to handle all these data.
Hello, we use your tool via shortcode. It works great, but unfortunately it always shows 1 element less than it should be. I have searched for “skip” or similar in the comments, but found nothing.
Do you have any idea what it could be? Thanks,
Chris
Hello Chris
Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.
The fastest way to check the problem is to install Query Monitor and to check SQL query that selects filtered posts. If a filter is applied this query contains commented phrase /* Current SQL Query is filtered by Filter Everything plugin */ With Ctrl + F you can find desired SQL query and check it. Or provide it here in comments, I can say what could be a problem.
Hi, im not sure i did the right thing. Here what i found: SELECT t.term_id FROM mbNVXieaterms AS t INNER JOIN mbNVXieaterm_taxonomy AS tt ON t.term_id = tt.term_id WHERE tt.taxonomy IN (‘category’) AND t.term_id NOT IN (1)

I couldnt find the entry you mentioned, but the products are displayed. So there has to be an query, right?
Greetings Chris
Hi antares_wa.
Desired SQL query looks like thisSELECT t.term_id FROM mbNVXieaterms AS t INNER JOIN mbNVXieaterm_taxonomy AS tt ON t.term_id = tt.term_id WHERE tt.taxonomy IN (‘category’) AND t.term_id NOT IN (1)But it should be another one.
Optionally you can send me credentials to your /wp-admin in accordance with this document I will check it myself.
How to make collapsible filters opened by default?
Hello PassionProject_CNX
Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.
For the moment it requires to make some code changes in pluign and is not possible to achieve this by changing settings. But in future updates I will definitely add such feature. I hope this will happen in 1-2 months.
Hello PassionProject_CNX
I’m glad to inform you that in the latest plugin version 1.7.1 you can make filters opened by default. As it is not very popular feature, I did it via hook, but maybe I will add this as separate option in the plugin UI later. Please, see how to make a Foldable filter opened by default here – https://gist.github.com/wpserve/aaa55f33224196671883116d6f694e32
Perfekt. Thank you very much. Works great!
Great. I’m glad that it was useful for you.
I would be thankful for a review about the plugin here on CodeCanyon – https://codecanyon.net/item/filter-everything-wordpress-woocommerce-filter/reviews/31634508
Thank you in advance!
Hey I do not know how to activate the pro version. Can I have the guidelines? Thank you
Hi gcusto
Sure. Please, go to Filters -> Settings -> License, click on the “Get your License Key” and you will be redirected on the new page. Login there with your Envato credentials and you will see your License key for the Filter Everything PRO plugin.
Hey! Unfortunately I can’t see the license. Is there another way to proceed?
Send me please link to the screenshot (in PM of course) with the page you see after logged in with Envato credentials.
I have the license on envato but there’s no place to import it on the woocommerce plugin.
gcusto
License key and purchase code are different things. To get License key you have to click on the “Get your License Key” in Filters -> Settings -> License.
If you have not such page in your /wp-admin it could mean that you use previous plugin verison. In this case download please here on CodeCanyon the latest version 1.6.9 and update it manually. Don’t forget to create backup before this.
Hey i finally installed it. I followed the documentations closely but the filter does not show on the category page.
gcusto
Great, I’m glad that you finally activated license.
Usually if you don’t see Filters widget there are several possible reasons:
- wrong value in the “Where to filter?” field (should be your category page or “All archive pages for this Post Type” )
- you did not insert Filters widget in the correct sidebar. Please check if the widget area works with another widget.
- you activated Empty filters – Always hide in the Filter Set and no one of your filters contain posts related with them.
Please, check these possible reasons.
Hi,
I realized yesterday that the whole content besides the footer and header disappeared on my site, and the problem was tracked to filter everyting pro plugin. Now it’s deactivated and everything works normally, besides the filtering, of course. Do you know what could be the issue? Thanks!
Hi, fannilaa
Please, update plugin to the latest version 1.6.9 available here on CodeCanyon. It seems it is incompatibility with your WP 6.0 that requires latest plugin verison.
Hi there, I’ve just bought the plugin and set it up on my website.
I’ve followed the documentation super closely and the video on YouTube, but I just cant get it working as it should.
It works great on a single page (for woocommerce products and posts), but not on any taxonomy archives. It just kinda works but gets the tags and categories wrong.
I also cant get the sorting to work at all (for posts or products) despite setting it up correctly in widgets.
Can I share a link to the site privately?
Cheers
Hello R3nderBoy
Thank you for purchasing the plugin.
Issues you described usually are evidence that you didn’t choose correct WP_Query in the field “And what to filter?” of the Filter Set. Please, try to experiment with different WP_Queries in that field.
Also if you use AJAX, please disable it until you will be sure, that filtering works.
But of course you can send me link in PM I will check it.
Dear developer,
How to place the wpc-custom-selected-terms somewhere else on the page?
Thanks
It suppose to be on another place 
Hello itsame
Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.
In general there are two ways for that:
1) You can select another hook for Chips in Filters -> Settings -> Selected Filters (Chips) integration
2) Optional way is to remove all hooks from the option above and add Chips as shortcode [fe_chips] – https://filtereverything.pro/resources/shortcodes/#chips
I hope this will help you to solve the problem 
Hello,
I have a problem with Woocommerce mobile version filter if I set a “Enable Pop-up Filter widget” it opens, but all the filter is inactive. If I add new categorie to Product categories filter it displays, but if I want to filter something, I can’t..
Hello Junkvila
Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.
Your filters are not inactive, it’s just CSS conflict with your theme styles. If you select any sub-category, it fitlers as expected.
But you also have CSS conflict with Pop-up widget overlay. To fix this you can:
1) Enable Compatibility mode checkbox close to “Enable Pop-up Filter widget” and check it.
If this will not help you:
.wpc-overlay-visible .wpc-filters-overlay{
display: none;
}
This should help you.
Hello!
I’ve been wondering on solving my customer’s business requirement for filtering products by the stock quantity. The main trouble here is that stock quantity doesn’t represent the actual product state, i.e. having 1000 units of product means it’s available within 7 days, having more than 1000 is available within 1 day and less than 1000, but more than 200 is unavailable. Those fluid rules doesn’t fit well into WooCommerce stock representation as it is.
For the filter, we wanted to display to end customer only 3 options – available, available within week, not available. With custom field for stock quantity it’s not possible as there would be only the whole range of quantities.
At first, I’ve been thinking about writing custom filter handler, but from what I’ve seen, such customization doesn’t fit well with your codebase, am I right?
Do you see any possible solution to such mapping – numeric value to specific options based on range settings?
Best regards, Bartek
Cześć Bartek.
Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.
In general you have to make some coding anyway because out of the box FIlter Everything PRO (and probably no one another filter) allow you to achieve your goal.
As most fast solution I see the next:
- create Custom Field ‘my_product_status’
- write portion of code that gets all your products and in dependancy from units value set correct value in the ‘my_product_status’ field [available | available within week | not available]
- write function for “save_post” hook that changes value fo the ‘my_product_status’ field when you update/create product.
- create Custom Field filter by this field.
It’s enough.
Hi Stepasyuk, I just purchase the Filter everything pro plugin.
I currently have some issues with the plugin,
1. Not all my post categories are filtering.
2. When a new post is added, it does not update on the category count.
This also applies to the Tags.
3. I also applied Label’s list as the view in widget format for the categories, but it seems not to list properly.
Hi carolinar113
Thank you for purchasing Filter Everything PRO.
1. Send me please linke to the example with problems with categories.
2. When you add a new post, filter terms list should be updated.
3. Show me please link to the page with these incorrect on your meaning labels.
