Hello
I am having some issues using the filter on a taxonomy page made via elementor theme builder.
I have a “brand” page which has title, description etc and then a list of custom posts associated to the brand taxonomy.
Whenever I try to use the filter it reloads the page to a completely different url for another brand with the filter suffixed to the url.
Ideally, I would like the post list to change via the ACF selected but for it to stay on that same brand page and provide a filtered post list.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Hello gordonhill1990
In any case when you filter your posts, page’s URL should be changed. But if it is option for you, you can try to use plugin without permalinks. So instead of filtering URLs like /brand-sony/color-black/ you will see URL with GET variables like ?brand=sony&color=black
If it is ok for you, please add in the functions.php of your active theme next code:define( 'FLRT_PERMALINKS_ENABLED', false );
Hi there thanks for your reply. Unfortunately I tried this and it still changes the url on each filter. Perhaps I haven’t understood properly but I just want the product list to change not the page itself. It seems to reload the entire page and changes everything to the other brand.
Hi gordonhill1990
Yes, the URL always will be changed when you filter your products. Unfortunately there is no way to leave URL the same.
I don’t think I am explaining well. Can i please have your email address to send you a video of what I mean?
Here is a video, basically it should filter using the number range and the already selected brand/taxonomy but for some reason every time its also changing the brand filter when the number range filters applied. Does that make sense?

It’s normal regular behavior of the widget if your filtered posts and filters widget are on different pages. If you want to use Apply button mode and to stay on the same page, you have to leave value “The same page as for filtered posts” for the Alternative Location option.
Thanks for the reply. This setting is already set.
As I see your site is under Maintenance mode. Try please to disable this mode and to check if filter works without Apply button mode. After try it with Apply button mode and let me know about results.
Thank you.
No I am afraid it does not work. Please can you refund me the extension? I have found another one that works better.

Loving this plugin!
We’re using a ‘checkbox filter’ for ‘post categories’.
Is there a way to: 1) order the post categories, and; 2) show the relationship between ‘primary category’ and ‘sub category’?
An example of this is: https://icatcare.org/advice/?per_page=12
As you can see, there’s ‘primary category’ of ‘Getting a Cat’, ‘General Care’, ‘Cat Health’ etc. Within that, there’s then ‘sub categories’.
If it can expand like this it will be great – but if not, just being able to distinguish between ‘primary category’ and ‘sub category’ will be a huge help.
Look forward to hearing what’s possible!
Hello elevatewebsites
Thank you for your warm words about the plugin. Yes, you can enable option Show Hierarchy in the Category filter -> More options
Hello, absolutely fantastic plugin – love it.
Question- is it possible to change the URL name for the sales filter?
I noticed on your demo it is /onsale-yes/, on mine it is /sale-price-yes/ so wondered if/how this can be changed? I would like to use just /deals/ instead – is that viable?
Would be nice if in future we could show the various sale ranges (Sale, 20% or more, 50% or more etc) or to filter by biggest % discount to lowest. The “regular price” filter is kind of redundant as people would not use this. Not a problem, just thought it might make for a decent feature update sometime in the future.
Oh, I actually figured out how to change the URL name now. All good!
What a brilliant plugin by the way, the entire thing works flawlessly on my site.
Hello drly
Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO and for your warm words about the plugin.
I’m glad that you already find how to solve your problem. I hope the plugin will help you to make your site better and convenient 
Hello, Great solution, but do you plan to implement a saved search option in it?
Hi Frantishek
I’m not sure I understand you in this question. Every filtering page has its own individual URL. If you need to save your filtering results you can just add a bookmark in a browser.
Hi Frantishek
Sorry for the late response. In general it is possible to implement such feature as independent from the Filter Everything functionality. I think there could be some plugins that allow to do that, but I do not know such examples.
Hey Stepasyuk, is there a way to give more weight to posts with a particular term within a taxonomy in the filtered results? The desired outcome – if a post has the term “the best post” selected for it’s category, it will display before any other post that does not have this term, regardless of the date it was posted.
Hello danmaby
Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.
In general this is partly possible, but it requires to add hook to your filtered WP_Query and this term can be only post meta term, not taxonomy. This required to be familiar with PHP or ask a developer to help you.
If you do not want to code you can use Filter Everything sorting widget and create sorting paramter with that post meta field. It will be such a half-assed decision
Hi,
Does your plugin support filtering user metadata?
We use buddypress and xprofile fields for extra fields and need to filter on this.
Thanks
Hi bdebie
Thank you for your interest in Filter Everything PRO.
Unfortunately no, it filters only by post’s meta fields data.
Hello, it looks like the formatting for the filters is a little off. I have installed your latest version with the latest version of WP. 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/
Thanks for your fast reply. I will get it fixed.

I’m glad that your problem is solved
Hello, I am looking for a filters plugin for Woocommerce with a fairly specific functionality. I want to be able to add filters to a specific page to filter products on that page, while always applying a default filter in the background. I’ve got a few specific types of products (they are in specific categories and have their own pages) and I would like to have filters which only apply to the products in that specific category. Does this plugin support this?
Hello flintwebmedia
Sorry for the late reponse.
You can “pre-populate” all filters with specific filter term via hook ’wpc_filter_term_url’. It is possible, but requires to be familiar with PHP coding or you can ask a developer to help you.
Hi, I encounter a conflict between the filter everything plugin and YITH Gift card Premium plugin. This don’t seem really related, but as soon as the gift card plugin is activated, the filters have no effect on the woo commerce product lists. – the filter panels display well – the product count and auto hiding of filters works also, – but the list of product displayed is not filtered. Do you have any idea what can create that issue. Thanks
Hi antoine82
Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.
It looks like when you enable YITH Gift card Premium plugin something changes with WP_Query you tried to filter. Please try next thing – activate YITH Gift card Premium plugin and after that open Filter Set and try to experiment with different WP_Queries in the “And what to filter?” field. You should find WP_Query that will be filtered.
Also in this case disabled please AJAX as it may prevent you from finding the problem. You can enable it later.
Hello Stepasyuk.
Thanks for your advice, I tried changing that settings which propose me “Product Query” and “Product Query, Main Query”. I don’t really understand the difference, but it’s working better with the second option.
I updated all the filter set applied on the different categories and will do more testing. But it looks already working with the Gift card plugin activated.
Thanks
Hello antoine82
I’m glad that it already works for you
Hi, i have just purchased and installed the plugin which work gook. i have set it to work in AJAX and have 2 questions:
1. I have a styling issue – seems that when loading the page the style and design is good but when reloading data from filter something is missing in the css rules and there is a large gap between the image and the text
https://ibb.co/3YZKryJ https://ibb.co/qMDNPyh https://www.nuriteldar.co.il/blog-test/2. in the filter set i create i see that i can only set it to one specific page. is there an option to allow it on several pages?
Hi Colibri56
Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.
1. Yes, it is CSS issue related with that fact that it calulates post thumbnail’s padding as 66% percent from its height to make images aspect ratio permanent – https://prnt.sc/XEg3GGYaT0LH. But when you use AJAX it calulates this padding from wrong, not-ending value. I see several ways how to solve this:
- disable AJAX and use filtering in regular mode ( if you open filtered page by direct link all is right – https://www.nuriteldar.co.il/blog-test/post_cat-%D7%A1%D7%A4%D7%A8%D7%99%D7%9D/ )
- change your thumbnails CSS and make it static (for example 233px)
- to try to disable aspect ratio for thumbnails in Elementor settings (it looks like Elementor is responsible for this option)
2. You can set list of typical pages like post archives, categories, tags and so on. But you can not set several singular pages as usually they contain different WP_Queries and this requires to handle them in different ways. So if you need to filter on several singualr pages for the moment you have to create several Filter Sets and point them to desired pages.
Hן Stepasyuk just want to confirm you got my reply?
Hi Colibri56
Indeed, its something untypical for pagination. I think the issue may be related with RTL site.
Please, send me credentials to your /wp-admin in accordance with this document I will check it myself.
Hi @Stepasyuk, sent credentials to site
@Stepasyuk Hi, any Update, have you recieved the access?
Can you please update?
Hi Colibri56
Thank you for the credentials, I’m checking this right now. Can you please allow to my user account to edit plugins code? This is required to check pagination problem.
Hi, i am not sure what premission you need, you are set as administrator
Ok, let me explain. Please see this screenshot – https://prnt.sc/RchrRoUTSIqW
I’m not sure, maybe your site has one more administrator. If so, you have to ask him why my user has not this menu item. Without this menu item (what is typical for WordPress) I can not check the problem.
Or as option, you have to send me FTP credentials to your site (via PM of course)
Thanks for the explaination, i have updated ut and checked it with your user, you should see it now. i have updated your user password so please get a new reset link to set your password
Hi, Any Update?
Hi Colibri56
This task requires some time. I think it will be ready on the next week, I will notify you here about the result. Please, confirm that you received this information in comment under this. Your comment will remain as unanswered and I wlll not loose this task from my eyes.
OK, Thanks
Hi Colibri56
Thank you for your patience.
I checked your site and realized that for some reason these paginate links work if you are logged in. But if you are logged out from the dashboard links work wrong.
I also reproduced the same configuration with Elementor, my plugin and Hebrew category slug on my dev site and all works fine – https://dev.filtereverything.pro/elementor/pcategory-%D7%98%D6%B6%D7%9B%D7%A0%D7%95%D6%B9%D7%9C%D7%95%D6%B9%D7%92%D6%B4%D7%99%D6%B8%D7%94/3/
It looks like something on your site generates this conflict. Maybe some plugin or custom code if you have.
In general I can say that my plugin works correctly with Elementor pagination module and Hebrew term slugs. Moreover it always generates the same and correct pagination links. But for some reason they do not work when you are logged out.
As option I recommend you to disable your plugins one by one and to find which one exactly generates this conflict.
Thanks @Stepasyuk for checking it and updating. i had a look on your dev site and sltough it seems ok, i saw an issue that also occurs in your dev site.. Firstly the site is not using AJAX, and also if you go to the your site to the first main page: https://dev.filtereverything.pro/elementor/ i can navigate between pages, however if i choseon this age the technology category and then try to move between pages i get an error.
Here is a screenshot video of the process: https://www.veed.io/view/af7c6928-60c5-4142-9055-ce90ca5d44c6/showcaseHello Colibri56
Yes, indeed. I checked this and I see that there is problem with pagination links in the Elementor posts module. But the main problem is that it depends from the Elementor posts module, but not from Filter Everything plugin. I don’t know why it generates such broken links. I would be glad to help you with this, but it requires to change Elementor code what I can not to do. As option you can ask their support to help you with this problem and provide all details.
I would be glad if you will let me know about the result if you ask Elementor support.
Thank you.
Thanks Stepasyuk, if icontact elementor support and get any results i will update you. in the meantime do you have any suggestions to an other module for posts and paginging that will work as expected with your plugin inside an elementor page? Thanks
Hello Colibri56
Unfortunately I don’t know such modules for Elementor. But you can try plugins like post grid or so that allows you to insert shortcode and display posts and navigation. Usually they use WordPress default navigation that should be compatible with hebrew slugs.
Or, as option, you can use latin slugs in your post categories and tags. In this case even Elementor pagination will work properly.
Hello,
how do i configure this plugin (we did buy PRO) such i can display an “In stock” filter, that also works with variations? say size = XL and “in Stock”?
tried a lot of combinations with _stock and _stock_status but this never seem to actually work?

This is the ram of my 8gb hosting, this is the hosting answer:

samuelasgarbossa
I understand your position, but from the technical point of view it’s not so important how many RAM your server has in absolute amount. But it is important to have enough resources to handle all your data. You have too many products and it requires appropriate resources of from your server. It can be 16Gb RAM or even more.
You can make experiment – to add filters one by one and test when it stops to work. For example with one filter it works – https://grforniture.it/catalogo/marca-peugeot/
Try to add second, third and you will know what is the hardest fitler that eats resources and decide to use it or not.
Also FYI about filtering performance – filtering speed depends from next parameters:
- server CPU
- server RAM
- number of posts to filter
- number of filters and terms
- number and quality of plugins you use
- cache adjustments on a server
- plugin’s code optimizations, internal cache (this was already done for the Filter Everything)
Ok, One last thing, I would like to exclude all out of stock products from the filter search, would this be possible? Having a lot of product out of stock maybe this could help. Thank you
Hello samuelasgarbossa
You have several ways to solve this problem:
1. You can create separate filter by product stock status – https://demo.filtereverything.pro/example/by-stock/
2. Or you can enable option “Hide out of stock items from the catalog” in WooCommerce -> Settings -> Products -> Inventory

Hi Stepasyuk,
I’m trying to add my licence key, but it does’nt work. “uknow error”
Hi ombresetfacettes
Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.
Please, note that License key and purchase code are different things. To set License key, please go to Filters -> Settings -> License, click on the “Get your License Key” and you will be redirected to the new page. Log in there with your Envato credentials and you will see your License key for the Filter Everything PRO plugin.
Hi, This is what i do, but when i try to valid my licence key it’s not working. “Unknown error.”
Ok, send me please domain name you tried to activate. You can send it via PM.
Maybe that’s because my website is in local now ? I will, when he is online. Thx u
Ah, yes, sure – website on localhost can’t be activated. In any case the plugin will work normally without activated license at least two months. Meanwhile I will try to solve activation problems on localhosts.
Hello, so I have filters set up on the top of the product archive (not in a sidebar) and I would like the dropdowns to display items with checkboxes so that people can select multiple items at the same time. I have tried to select “checkboxes” in “view in widget” but that doesn’t work as it does not put the items in a dropdown. I even tried to select the “folding” option, but when I click on the filter label to show the options it moves the whole content of the page down. How can I get this to work? The whole reason why I bought the pro version is because I saw an image on your website that looked like items with checkboxes could be displayed in a dropdown (in the section that says “create any filter by any parameter”). I hope this can be done. Thank you
Hello federika1992
Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.
In general this type of view is planned for development, but is not included in the plugin yet. The plugin supports separately – checkboxes and dropdowns, but not dropdown with checkboxes simultaneously.
But, if you so need to have dropdown with checkboxes, you can achieve this by creating your own view for desired filters. For this purpose you can use feature Tempalte Overriding shortly described here – https://filtereverything.pro/resources/templates-overriding/
Also you can use checkboxes view for your purpose but you have to edit some CSS styles to make position of this view absolute and in this case filters will appear above your products layer and will not move them down.
Of course all these expect that you are familiar with CSS or you have to ask a developer to help you.
hello, i have bought the pro version, and i want to filter post with its custom field.
i display post by using elementor – posts grid component.
The filter works nice, i can see the filter selections and the count of matched post.
but if i filter, the website url wil change but the post content not change. So, i want to know how to link the filter with the post component.
Of course, i try to use something like ”.elementor-element-3e7bac5” in the “CSS id or class of the Posts Container”
Thanks!
HI, i try to change post query # and solve it
Hi weboostdev
Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.
I’m glad that your problem is already solved
Hello. Fantastic plugin! I have a question about defining my one filter set in the “where to filter” section to show on multiple types of pages. I need this filter set to display on: Home page, post type archive page, and several taxonomy pages. I did not see this answer in your documentation. I understand it will inherit from the parent term, but this does not work when I have three different taxonomies and different pages/archives. I know I can make additional filter sets and simply define where to add them in each set, but I’m hoping there’s a way to do it all in this one filter set, since I do not require different filters on each of those pages. Thanks!
I found that I can choose Common wordpress pages > All archive pages for this post type. That solves my issue with needing it on multiple taxonomies. But I still don’t see a way to include another page like the homepage on the same filter set.
Hello bravewhale
Thank you for your warm words about the plugin.
Indeed you can not specify one Filter Set for several type of pages because potentially they can contain absolutely different WP_Queries and in this case Filter Everything have to use different logic to filter them.
So you can either create individual Filters Sets for your different pages. Or you can use a trick – to create one common Filter Set for “All archive pages for this post type” and for example hide Filters widget on pages, where it is not needed.
For Homepage if it is not your posts page you have to create separate Filter Set.
Thank you for explaining. This makes sense. Since it sounds like multiple filter sets are necessary, I’d like to suggest there be a “copy” or “clone” filter set option. I tried using the Duplicate Posts plugin from Yoast, but it does not seem to work on the filter sets post type even when I select that in the Yoast settings. Thanks again.
bravewhale
Thank you for your advice. This feature is planned and will be added to the plugin after some time. Unfortunately I can’t say when exactly this happen because I don’t know this for the moment. But I can notify you here in this comment section.
Hi, I need to add multiple post type to one Filter type. How it can be. Please help me.
Please reply on it.
Hello logakarthikeyan
Sorry for the late reponse. You can not filter more than one post type simultaneously. You have to use differnt Filter Sets for this.
Is it possible render shortcodes in the SEO Title, Meta Description, H1 Title as it is possible in the SEO Description from the seo rule sets? If now how can I render short codes?
Hello zipwebs
By default regular WordPress shortcodes works only in the content blocks (like SEO Description). To allow them to work in SEO Title, Meta Description and H1 Title you have to use some specific hooks. I would like to provide you with details, but unfortunately your support period exceeded and to make things fair you can extend this period and I will provide you with these hooks.
I went a head and purchase another license, Because I will be using it in another project of mine.
Great zipwebs
Thank you. Insert please this code for example in the functions.php of your active theme:
add_filter( 'wpc_seo_title', 'do_shortcode' );
add_filter( 'wpc_seo_description', 'do_shortcode' );
add_filter( 'wpc_seo_h1', 'do_shortcode' );
Worked perfectly fine! Thanks so much.
I would like to know if it is possible to activate an hourglass on the page, having many filters it takes some time for the results to be loaded, this could suggest that the site is not working. Thank you
Hello samuelasgarbossa
You can activate AJAX loading icon in Filters -> Settings -> Experimental. Also you can enable waiting cursor and dark overlay if you need. Also you can use own custom animation if you are familiar with CSS. In this case you can edit CSS rules for the .wpc-spinner element.
