Hi… We are testing this plugin on the staging environment. For pricing, we are trying to add range, but the range is not getting selected in the admin add filter section. Do you have any idea why? Do you want the website login info?

Hi Niru2025

Thank you for your interest in Filter Everything PRO.

Range slider is available only for Custom Field Numeric or Taxonomy Numeric filters. It expects that you stored in the selected post meta field or taxonomy terms numeric values. For other filter types it is not available (disabled) as does not make sense.

Hi there,

I purchased the plugin on the 5th, went through the setup process and it seemed pretty straight forward. But, I’m having some trouble getting it to work correctly. It seems to work sometimes… but in most cases it doesn’t seem to react to the inputs. Same problem with the reset button. The page resets the url but not the filtered items. It usually works if I refresh the page a few times but not always. I thought it might be some sort of a caching issue. I tried eliminate the caching on that page with the same result. I deactivated all of the unnecessary plugins and still have the issue.

I’m using the Avada theme and I’m trying to filter by a custom post type using custom fields created with the ACF plugin along with the Avada post card feature.

I’m sure it’s something silly I’ve overlooked but I can’t figure out what. And, I’m not sure where to start, or how to further trouble shoot the issue. Any advice that you could give me would be great.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hello todd_flycreative

Thank you for your credentials.

There could be three possible reasons: 1) You selected wrong WP_Query in the “And what to filter?” dropdown.

2) You have cache issue on your site.

3) You have cache issue that does not allow you to select correct WP_Query in the “And what to filter?” dropdown.

Usually you can try next things – edit and update your target page (Current Scholars Finder in your case) for example change its Permalink or so. And after immediately open your Filter Set to edit and select another WP_Query if it presents.

Sometimes this WP_Query can be cached by your theme or plugin and it is visible one time right after you update your page.

Thanks for the quick reply!

Per you response above. I checked the WP_Query in the dropdown and it was correct. I tried resetting it just to see if it would make a difference. It did not. So, that brings us back to the caching issue. As I mentioned before, the plugin works perfectly on the staging site but not on the live site. I tried to remove caching all together on the live site via the wp-confg.php but that had no effect either. There is no CDN or caching plugin on the live site at this time. Is there anything else I should try? I’m out of ideas at this point.

Thanks again for your help.

Hello Todd

Unfortunately I can’t say what could be the reason in addition to those that I have already mentioned. It seems it is related with your live server configuration. Or maybe with some 3rd party plugins or custom code if they are different from your staging server.

As option you have to install Query Monitor on your live site, select any filter any try to find filtered SQL query. It contains phrase /* Current SQL Query is filtered by Filter Everything plugin */ This query can provide some information about what might be interfering with filtering.

I wanted to add a Filter on a specific Page. But when I insert the Shortcode it says “No one Filter Set is related with this page. You can configure it in the Filter Set -> “Where to filter?” field.” :/ But in the “Where to Filter” I can only chose “Archive”, “Homepage” or “Search Result Pages for selected Post Type”... I guess, the third option might be the right one, but how can I make the specific (“normal”) Page to this Result Page?

Hi peter2351

Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.

Try please to select in the left dropdown of the field Where to filter? value Pages and after that in the right dropdown you will see list with all pages on your WordPress site and you can choose desired page.

Hi,

Is there any way to use a filter with Custom Numeric Field where the range goes from 1 – Unlimited?

Thanks,

Hi mobilabonnemangi

Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.

The Maximum value in the range slider depends from the maximum value of post meta field in posts your want to filter. So if you will specify for one of your post/product post meta value for example 2147483647 (it is maximum integer in PHP on 32-bit systems) you will see this value in the Max field.

If your system is 64-bit this value can be 9223372036854775807

Thanks, I do understand this.

But in the “range” slider the value 2147483647 wouldn’t look too good for the user. Is it possible to set a max value here in the range slider filter then?

Hi mobilabonnemangi

They only correct way to set this value is to specify it for one of your filtered product/post.

Optionally you can hardcode it in the range.php view file using template overriding feature – https://filtereverything.pro/resources/templates-overriding/ but in this case it will not recalculate this Max value during filtering process and this can be inconvenient for site visitors.

Hola, necesito ordenar las categorías de productos del filtro de manera personalizada, ¿cómo puedo hacerlo? Muchas gracias

Hi marianpino

Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.

I would be glad to asnwer on your question, but support language is only English. Please write them in English only.

Thank you for your understanding.

Hi Stepasyuk, Im using PRO version of your plugin, working smoothly, but I need to filter exact number like single slider (not range slider). Try to explain my case in real example. My customer selling cork stoppers, lets say with diameter 20mm, which customer can use for the bottle neck with diameter of 15 – 17mm. (just numbers/example) I need on the frontend single slider where customer will set exact bottle neck diameter of his bottle (lets say 17mm) and filter show him suitable corks. Every cork has its own range in mm for bottles that can be used. Can you give your advice how to filter these products with your filter ? Or does filter provide also single slider ? Thank you and good job.

Yes, sure. You can add condition inside range.php file and to check if the current filter is radius – to use one type of template, if the current filter is another – use another template code.

As optionaly way you also can use hook ‘wpc_view_include_filename’ to include your own template file for specific filter. You can find it in the plugin code and to understand what variables it allows to use and modify.

Hi stepasyuk, Thank you for your reply. Can you do this customization for me and send me price for it ? Thank you.

Hi whosred_sk

I would be glad to do this, but unfortunately I have no time for such paid services. But you always can find somebody for example on Upwork.

Hello,

I just tried using the Filter plugin.

I have a configuration: CPT UI + ACF + Elementor. When I want to filter the CPT UI posts with the ACF fields, the filter shows “Yes” & “No” with the number of related posts. But it does not display the name of the ACF fields… Do you know why?

I tried filtering the basic WordPress post with categories, it works, the filter shows the category names fine.

Thanks !

P.S : I tried with several different UI CPT posts, it doesn’t work

Can you help me ?

Hello anneso0

Thank you for using the plugin.

In general usually if you see “Yes” and “No” it means that you use Custom Field Exists type of filter. But it seems you need to use simple Custom Field filter type that show post meta field values as terms.

Try please to delete that filter and create a new one as Custom Field filter. Here you can read more about filter types – https://filtereverything.pro/resources/filter-types-taxonomy-custom-field-and-author/

Hello,

I am using a WP Bakery enhanced template. I looked everywhere and also tried the php snippet for function.php, but I can’t seems to make the plugin visible on my page.

Is there something in particular I need to check?

Thank you in advance!

Best regards, Andrei

Hello andreiparaschiv22

I’m not sure I understand you about preview button. If you mean the eye icon in the Filter Set it is not preview, but just link to the page, where Filter Set pointed to work. If you don’t see FIlters widget on other pages, it measn you didn’t point Filter Set on them.

Please, try to select “All archive pages for this Post Type” in the “Where to filter?” field of Filter Set and make sure that Filters widget in available on pages, where you expect to see it.

Hello!

Thank you for the above details, everything works fine now!

Kind regards, Andrei

andreiparaschiv22

Great. I’m glad that your problem was solved :-)

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!

Hello, I have decided I do not need this plugin. Will you give me a refund? Kind regards, Olivia

Hello LivLauryn

You can create refund request in the form in your account and the request will be processed in accordance with the Refund policy Rules.

Hi Stepasyuk, I’ve encountered an issue with the global filter prefixes. I’ve run through the process of deactivating/activating plugins, and this issue is only present when the Filter Everything plugin is activated. If a post is created and its permalink starts with the same word as one of the filter prefixes, it generates a 404 when trying to view the post. So if I create a post called “Location Test”, its permalink is example.com/location-test/. However, if I have a global filter prefix of location, this post will return a 404.

I see this on WP 6.0.2 with the two versions of Filter Everything I have; 1.6.5 and 1.7.0.

Hello danmaby

Thank you for the report.

In general I know about this issue and I planned to validate more deeply and restrict values in the Prefix fo URL field to forbid words that already used in WordPress things. For example in taxonomy terms, post/page slugs and so on. But I’m still thinking about this because sometimes they can be used for both simultaneously – for example as taxonomy slug and as Prefix for URL (e.g. category and category). So for such cases I have one simple recomendation – just do not use the same word for prefixes and for post slugs.

For the all time customers use my plugin there were only 4 or 5 cases, when this caused 404 error.

Thanks for the response. The issue isn’t that a 404 is returned if the Prefix and Slug match. A 404 is returned if a new post starts with a matching word that exists in the Prefixes. This becomes a problem outside of our control in our case, because we’re enabling user submitted content (directory). So if a user submits a listing for the directory and happens to enter a post name that starts with one of the prefixes, it will return a 404. Any thoughts on how to mitigate this?

Hi danmaby

Technically I can add in the next plugin update the feature that checks already available post slugs before save a filter prefix for URL and vice versa – checks every post slug before saving it if it matches to existing prefixes for URL. But this will make the plugin heavier and increase the load on the site.

In your case I think the best way is does not use popular words in URL prefixes that potentially may match with post slugs.

Hello, I have purchased your plugin and we love it, but there is a big problem with multiple product tags filters. Unfortunately after adding one filter based on Product Tags it is not possible to use it anymore in the same set.

Why is it? Any chance that you could change it in the nearest future?

I’ve seen the option to use few Filters Sets, but this is not something we would like to do, as every category have different sets of filters.

Let me know. Thanks in advance!

Hello Shelterpl

Thank you for using the plugin.

In general it is techical requirement to restrict count of filters for the same criteria in single instance per Filter Set. But as you are probably 10th person who asked about this I have plans to consider of cancelling this restriction, but I don’t know when exactly this will happen. I can only notify you here in comments, after this will happen.

Hey, really great plugin, working perfectly for me. Unfortunately since the latest update, the filters disappeared from my homepage (home.php). I didn´t change anything… Any idea? Is it possible to download the previous version of your plugin to check if that is the reason for the problem? Thanks!

Hi ayudo2009

Thank you for using the plugin.

In general you are the first person who reported such issue. I don’t know what could happened on your site, but I always reccommend to create a DB or DB + files backup before any update of your WordPress site.

I can send you link to the previous verison of the plugin if you send me message in PM and extend your support period here on CodeCanyon. The last thing is to make things fair that I spend my time and efforts to help you.

Thank you for your understanding.

Hello Stepasyuk,

With the recent plugin update for “Added Taxonomy Numeric type of filter”, could you please update the documentation with the details for how this is implemented?

My range sliders using custom field num were previously working fine but have stopped once I updated the plugin to the latest version, so I’m just wondering how I can adjust my settings to use this taxonomy numeric field instead.

PS I’m very happy to see the XML sitemaps are in progress, that is a feature that would really be great to have (hopefully with Rank Math integration but I’ll take anything). Thank you for your great work on this plugin.

Hello drly

Thank you for your warm words about the plugin.

In general Taxonomy Numeric filters should not be related with your Custom Field Numeric filters. If they stopped to work it seems there is another reason. But if you send me (optionally in PM) link to the page with the problem, I can check and say what exactly happened.

FYI – you can not use Taxonomy Numeric filters instead of Custom Field Numeric because they expect that filtering data is stored in different places (in taxonomy terms and in post meta fields accordingly) So to replace one type filter with another type requires to copy all posts data from post meta to taxonomy terms.

Unfortunately I can not say when exactly XML sitemap will be ready, but I hope in 3 months this will happen. I will notify you here in this comments thread about this.

Hello, i use plugin for woocommerce product filtering. In browser console displaying error: Deprecated : trim(): Passing null to parameter #1 ($string) of type string is deprecated in /var/www/html/wp-content/plugins/filter-everything-pro/src/WpManager.php on line 1203

PHP Version: 8.1.6

How i can fix this error? Thank you

Hello Varhal

Thank you for using the plugin.

It seems you have some problems with WordPress function home_url() that should return your site home url, but returns null Probably some hooks forces it to return this value, you have to find it and disable or as option add own hook that returns correct value of your site home url.

Hi. I’ve bought this plugin but i’m missing one thing: What I’d like to know is if it’s possible to have multiple filters combined together and show up as a single checkbox on the frontend.

Practical example: I select “M” in the “Size” filter. Products shown will include products with filters such as “IT48” (which applies on T-Shirts) or 100 (which applies on belts). So it’s actually more than one different filters, but on the frontend they are just shown as one. Combined.

Is this possible (even with hooks)?

Many thanks in advance.

Hi ecchermichele

Thank you for purchasing the plugin. I already answered you on this question, but I will provide you with its copy.

Yes, it is possible via hooks. You can use hooks that allow you to handle a filter term HTML. For example Filter term html hooks – https://filtereverything.pro/resources/hooks/#term-html-hooks

Also you can use available in the plugin functions https://filtereverything.pro/resources/functions/ to create conditions to add or not extra filters to combine them.

And also you can try to change URLs of some filter terms via hook ‘wpc_filter_term_url’ In the pluign’s code you can find example how it works.

Hi, I have a few questions to ask: 1. Is there any way to have multiple categories filter for one Filter set? Currently only can have one for one Filter set. 2. Is there any way to select which categories to show in the same Filter set? 3. Where can I get the License Key? I cant find it. 4. Where can I choose to show the image or color for the filter?

Thank you.

Regards, Jessy

Hi JessyLim

Thank you for purchasing Filter Everything PRO.

1. Unfortunately no, you can add a filter with certain filtering criteria only one time in a Filter Set. But as a trick, you can create several Filter Sets for the same page and add the same filter in every Filter Set.

2. Yes, you can specify what exactly terms will be shown in a filter. Please open filter, open More options and find there Include/Exclude terms option.

3. To set License key, please go to Filters -> Settings -> License, click on the “Get your License Key” https://prnt.sc/-ehm9df3H_XT 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.

4. Images in filters can be displayed automatically If you use plugin ”Yith Brands for WooCommerce” or “Perfect Brands for WooCommerce”. But if you don’t use these plugins you can show your images via code example – https://gist.github.com/wpserve/e80ea9aaf978dfedb11edb44d2739dce This code expects that you added your images in taxonomy term meta fields and should be edited in accordance with your meta keys and stored for example in the functions.php of your active theme.

FYI – you can use this code example at your own risk, I do not provide support or debugging of this code. If you will not be able to implement it, you have to ask a developer to help you.

I’m having an error on all site when the plugin is active: https://www.loom.com/share/ff963f76dd574d51bd6f44c50aa4a770

Do you have any idea? This happens after update to the latest version 1.6.2

Thank you

Hi tecladigital

Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.

First of all update please the plugin to the latest version 1.7.0 – it is current version.

The second – try please to go edit your Filter Set and specify page or pages where it should works. This can be configured in the “Where to filter?” field and also select please correct WP_Query in the “And what to filter?” field of the Filter Set.

Before any changes, please create a DB backup. For example with plugin Updraft plus backup.

Thank you. Problem solved.

Great. I’m glad that your problem was solved.

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!

Hi. An information before buying please. I’ve seen this plugin in action on one of my client’s website.

What I’d like to know is if it’s possible to have multiple filters combined together and show up as a single checkbox on the frontend.

Hello, if we buy this plugin will it be installed on as many sites as we want or is it 1 purchase = 1 site? thanks Sir.

Hello ALTITUDE_DEV

Thank you for purchasing the plugin.

One license provides you ability to install one plugin copy on two sites – on your end-product site and on its development copy. So if you want to use the plugin for example on 3 end-product sites, you have to purchase 3 licenses. But all them are lifetime licenses and you will be able to get lifetime updates.

hello, i actived “Improved dropdowns” and i want to use image inside dropdown. I’ve tried edit dropdown.php but It appears as html code.

Hello gokhanluleci

Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.

In general regular HTML select tag does not support images inside its option tags. The only one way you can add it – use “Improved dropdowns” and modify jQuery Select2 plugin code to insert images. I think it can be possible and you can try to find solution in the Select2 documentation – https://select2.org/
