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?
Hello tigermedia
Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.
Please, write you support questions from the account, where you purchased the plugin. Such requests have highest priority to response.
This is the ram of my 8gb hosting, this is the hosting answer:
“That being said, I reviewed the resource usage of the server and I can see that you are well within the available resources.

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
Hello,
Any time someone selecting something from the filter options the filter screen is getting blurred and freezes. This is the only information I can provide in public.

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.
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.
