Hi. I finally installed the pro version of the plugin, and i have 1 issue.

I have set images for all the brands, and displayed the brands in the filter. But the images are not shown next to the brand names. I can see in the HTML that instead of calling the image, it says:

background-image: url(Array)

So there is some kind of error with the background url? Hope you can help

Hello Nhaugaard

I would be glad to help you but to make things fair you have to extend your support period that already expired. Please, let me know if you do it and you will need my support.

Thank you.

So you want me to pay $30 for you to help me fix a clear issue with the plugin, that i already bought? :-) How is that fair?

I even use one of the themes you say is compatible, when it’s clearly not.

Hello Nhaugaard

It looks like you don’t know although you have 9 years experience on CodeCanyon. In accordance with CodeCanyon Rules item support is available for accounts who have appropriate label “SUPPORTED”. Please see example – https://prnt.sc/AuJr_q80LnRc

Your support period was expired, so I’m not obliged to help you anymore. If you don’t want to pay for support you don’t have to do it. Nobody forces you to pay :-)

But forcing author to provide support via bad review is illegal. Such review will be deleted by moderator, but I give you chance to remove it by yourself in closest 24 hours and “to save your face”.

Therefore, let’s solve the issue constructively. I hope for your understanding.

Kind regards.

Hi,

I’ve noticed that the sorting widget doesn’t work if there are no filters on the page. Is this how it is supposed to work, or is there a workaround/setting I’m missing?

Thanks,

As option you can create Filter Set for such page(s) but do not insert Filters widget there. But only insert Sorting widget. In this case sorting will also work.

Hi,

That was my idea. But, we are inserting the WP_Query on pages through a shortcode.

And if I’d create a filter set for all these pages, I can’t find a way to do so, only for 1 page and we’d then have to create 1 empty filters that we’re not showing on the site for all these sites?

Is there any plan to add a function to show a filter on page x, y and z etc?

Or is this already possible?

Hi mobilabonnemangi

In first plugin versions I tried to add ability to show Filters on any Page ( I mean post type Page ) But this requires to have THE SAME WP_Query on every WorPress Page. As most of users do not understand this requirement and they had a lot of questions/problems I removed this feature from the plugin code.

So unfrotunately this goal requires to modify plugin’s code and after that it can not be updated.

Hi Stepasyuk. There is another bug unfortunately. On mobile, when you open filter modal, and click on a filter, the modal disappear (bug) and mask stay visible. Ajax is active.

Hi gleenk

Usually such behavior is evidence that you set AJAX container that also contains your FIlters widget. Please, set AJAX container that includes only filtered posts/products.

Hello, I have purchased the Pro version. I want to remove the Sorting filter at the top that offers: Default sorting; by title; by date etc. Please can you tell me how to disable/ hide this as it’s not needed. Thank you.

Sorry, found the solution in documentation – thank you :)

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

Thank you for notification about that.

Hi Stepasyuk, the show more link after 5 links is not being displayed and last links are hidden. Bug?

No problems. Let me know, how it works :-)

Works great! This plugin gets better and better ;). Speaking of the checkboxes template, why are changes not reflecting? E.g. in the template the input has a class of wpc-label-input, but on the frontend it does not have a class. So adding my own ones does not work.

Thank you for your warm words about the plugin :-)

In general some plugin improvements require changes in template files and if you use overriden templates, you have to copy new version of the template and copy your previous changes in it after such update.

It is unconvenient, but unfortunately there is no another way to combine improvements and ability to customize filter views.

Hi Stepasyuk,

I red that Filter Everything is compatible with Jetengie post lists. Can you confirm this? + Is it compatible with Translatepress too?

Thank you, H

I mean ‘Filter Everything PRO’ in stead of the free version.

Hi heveraert

Thank you for your interest in Filter Everything PRO plugin.

I can confirm that the plugin is compatible with JetEngine post lists and it can filter them.

I didn’t test it with Translatepress, but you can check if the Free version works with it, so the PRO also should work.

Good to know about Jetengine. I will check Translatepress in the free version. Thank you, S.

Hello,

Subject: not working with metaquery.

I just bought the Pro version of your plugin. Very nice, but it seems it is not working with a self-defined metaquery: I use the Woocommerce hook: ‘woocommerce_product_query_meta_query’, with in it a metaquery, but your plugin does not use that metaquery, only the main query. Testurl: https://staging2.playtoday.nl/producten-query/?nieuwbinnen=ja

The normal search-page is working well (when the filter set to the search page). The search-page has no self-defined metaquery.

It would be very nice if you can you help me with this problem.

Kind regards Edzerd Boersma.

Hello weboersma

Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO and sorry for the late response.

In general it should support customized WP_Queries, but if you fires your hook after my plugin does it, of course filtering will not recognize such modification. Please, ensure that your hook has earlier priority than Filter Everything. My plugin uses priority 9999 for ‘pre_get_posts’ hook.

FYI – in general I have to say that your question is out from the plugin support scope and if you modify your code you have to debug/fix it by yourself.

Thank you very much for your answer/hint. I did replace my Woocommerce hook ‘woocommerce_product_query_meta_query’ by a ‘pre_get_posts’ hook and then it worked! (At first I did not think in that direction) Kind regards Edzerd Boersma.

Hello Edzerd

I’m glad that your problem was succesfully 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, I have some problems filtering some articles. It seems very strange because with some it works perfectly while with others it does not: I have a set of teachers divided by REGION, CITY and TYPE OF COURSES. I have set up custom fields for all teachers. If filter by CITY the associated teacher does not appear in the list. This only happens for some cities. Or if I select the “Tuscany” REGION it automatically restricts my filter field (city) to the city of FLORENCE and shows me the teacher of that city … and so far everything is ok. On the other hand, if I don’t choose the region but just choose directly Florence, it doesn’t give me any results … Thi is my archive:

https://www.audiationinstitute.org/insegnanti_audiation/

Please help me ;)

Roberto

Hi roberto_ragno

Thank you for your credentials.

I checked your site and realized that all works fine. On this page – https://www.audiationinstitute.org/insegnanti_audiation/_regione-toscana/ you see two articles. They both have region Toscana in their Regione field (one and two).

You may be confused because you have Custom Post Type Insegnanti audiation and also you have the same persons on you Posts.

Hi Stepasyuk in fact, the problem is not on the “region” filter that works correctly. The problem comes when I click on the “city” filter. in fact, if I select the city Florence it does not return any results although, as you can see, this field has been entered correctly in the article. Try selecting “Tuscany” on the region filter and then “Florence” on the city filter. You will see that it does not return the result. Thanks for your help

Hi roberto_ragno

The problem is with your data and the fact that you changed your ACF field settings after you set your values. Some posts have regular text values, some of them have serialized values. It looks like you changed your ACF field from single value field to multiple choices or so. Please, see how it looks in DB – https://prnt.sc/1syNN3e3sq3v

One posts have just Milano other have a:1:{i:0;s:6:"Milano";} Please, update all your posts with current ACF field settings and all them will get the same data type and will be filtered correctly.

Hello.

I have just installed this plug in. Seems really easy to use. But I have a question about how to setup one typ of filter set.

I sell fittings for pneumatic. Lets say I have a product. Exampel of product. Straight fitting, with 1/4” threads on one side, and 3/8” threads on the otherside. First filter is type of modell. Example Straight fitting. Easy to setup.

But filter 2 & 3 will filter the size of the to ends. Soo I set up the product to: Filter 2 with both 1/4” & 3/8” threads. Filter 3 also have both 1/4” & 3/8” threads.

But if I seach with the filter. And setup Filter 2 with 3/8” Filter 3 with 3/8”

This fitting will come up. Is it possible to setup so it don’t shows up in any way?

This fitting will only show up when filter 2 are 1/4” filter 3 are 3/8” or filter 2 are 3/8” filter 3 are 1/4”

Is this possible?

Hello CGeiros

Thank you for using the plugin.

In general yes – logic between two different filters is AND. So it means that if you select Filter 2 = 1/4” and Filter 3 = 3/8” it will show only products that have these values simultaneously.

But FIlter 2 and Filter 3 should be different filters by different values – for example it should be 2 different Custom Fields or 2 different Taxonomies. For example “Outer size” and “Inner size” Or “Left size” and “Right size” Something like that.

UPD: you can use one filtering criteria (one Custom Field or one Taxonomy) but set logic AND for this filter in More options settings. In this case selecting two filter terms will show only products that have both values simultaneously.

So you can choose what option will be more useful for you – two different filters or one with logic AND.

Hi, i do have several custom product attributes and I would love to be able to use the range filter. It seems it’s only possible for “custom field numeric”. How can I achieve it?

Hi danieledbiagio

Thank you for using the plugin.

From the 1.7.0 plugin version Range filter is available for Taxonomy filters also. And if you use WooCommerce attributes, where you stored your numeric values, you can create range filter by them. But you can also try to create filter by custom WooCommerce attributes and they may work also. If to be honestly I didn’t test them yet, but you can try :-)

Hello, I really like the Plugin! However, I have a question. I would like the filter to only allow one filter-option at a time. So for example, if I have a Shop and the filter Option: “Sale” and “Everything”, and if I click on “Sale” it should only show the “Sale” items and if I then click the “Everything” option it should only show the “Everything” options. Is that possible?

Also another question: Is it possible to have one Filter-option to have applied by default? So let’s say the same example like above with “Sale” and “Everything” – and there having “Sale” as the option that is applied by default without having it to click first?

Best Regards

Hello MOCAGE

Thank you for your interest in Filter Everything PRO.

Yes, you can create filter by Sale status and it will contain two options – On Sale and Regular price. If you need to rename these options, you can do it via hooks and short code snippet.

If you need to have pre-selected fitler, you can put in your menu item Shop with URL that contains this pre-selected filter.

So in general all this is possible.

pre-sale question, each user has a list of post id (as favorite posts), can this plugin can give option to filter include/exclude them?

Hi xjgycc

Thank you for your interest in Filter Everything plugin.

Unfortunately no, it can not filter by user meta or user-related field values. Possible can be another thing – if your posts contain user_ids who added it to its favourites you can filter posts by these users.

Hi,

I just bought the plugin and I was looking for a filtering solution mostly for a specific third party plugin im using. I thought that I would be able to use Filter Everything to display a filter on a page and then the filter would change the URL query strings. From there, I thought I could use my own JS script to get those url query parameters and do the magic on my side. It does not seem the case since I always need to set a specific query which is not what im looking for.

Im really looking for more “front-end” solution where I can add filters on any page and the filter would change URL query strings…

If that cannot be accomplished, I would like to have a refund.

Thanks

Hi IronTemplates

I’m sorry that the plugin was not suitable for you. As you know there is form where you can ask about refund in your account and this request will be processed in accordacne with the CodeCanyon Refund policy Rules.

Hello, in the price slider, it is possible to separate the thousands of 3 into 3 numbers, so that large values such as 123456789 are transformed into 123 456 789, or 1234 into 1 234.

Thanks in advance for your help

Hello moraferia

Thank you for purchasing the plugin and sorry for the late response.

You can format numbers as you need using template overriding feature – https://filtereverything.pro/resources/templates-overriding/ This allows you create copy of the range.php template and edit it in accordance with your wishes.

Of course this expects that you are familiar with PHP coding or you have to ask a developer to help you to achive your goal.

Single Specific Question is:- My filters don’t seem to work with Elementor? – My understanding Elementor is supported – https://wordpress.org/plugins/filter-everything/ – So the problem is clearly my end?

Further information below and a Loom Video of what I have tried. Very much agree time is precious.

I have checked the documentation – but couldn’t see any reference to Elementor or the issue I am having.

I have created a staging website at:- https://vantagehousstg.wpengine.com/shop/moulds/chocolate-world-moulds/frame-moulds/chocolat-form/ for our main website which is Vantagehouse.com

I have disabled all unrequired plugins they may cause conflict.

I am using Elementor and have an Elementor Products Archive Template on a Woocommerce Product Category page called “Chocolate Form”. (I am of the understanding that Elementor is supported for the Pro version – as referenced here:- https://wordpress.org/plugins/filter-everything/

Within the plugin “Filter Everything Pro” I have created a Filter set called “Chocolat Form”, set the Post Type to filter to “Products” and chosen the “Filter by” as “Product Mould Cavity Length”.

In the Settings I have set the “Apply filtering if page is” to Product Categories and “Chocolat Form” as the Category.

On the page “https://vantagehousstg.wpengine.com/shop/moulds/chocolate-world-moulds/frame-moulds/chocolat-form/” I can see all the available filters with the in brackets () value of how many products it applies too.

However when using the checkbox and selecting an option like “38 (1)” where I would expect the page via AJAX to reload and display 1 product; instead nothing happens.

I then started to investigate AJAX within setting ticking the “AJAX for Filters” box but it doesn’t seem to resolve the issue.

Looking at the “CSS id or class of the Posts Container” box, I changed the value from .page-content to #prods (whereby I set this value in Elementor) but it didnt work.

Please see this Loom video for all that I have tried so far:- https://www.loom.com/share/c0e2971ebd3743e8b33cdae73ee7abad

I paid for further support on this and feel I have been as clear as I can at this point.

Thank you in advance for your support

More than happy to give you access to the site via PM?

all the best

Hello James

Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.

It’s known issue related with plugin configuration. Possible reasons are:
- Wrong WP_Query selected in the “And what to filter?” field of the Filter Set. Please try to experiment with different WP_Queries in the dropdown.
- Cache issue (WP_Query is cached). You have to check and maybe disable your cache plugins or modules in your hosting provider dashboard.
- AJAX enabled but wrong value for CSS id or class of the Posts Container specified. Please, disable the AJAX feature, until you will ensure that filtering works in general.

Hi, Thank you for your reply.

I had already tried all that you suggest before sending you my support query.

Unfortunately this hasn’t resolved any of the problems.

As stated previously; I have disabled all plugins (including any caching ones).

Time is very important – and after waiting 5 days for a response; I would very much like you to login to my staging site and hopefully fix the issue.

Hello! I am using crocoblock through woo page builder, I have created a filter, it is displayed but the filtering does not work. could you help me. Thank you!!

https://bimordiscos.com/mordedores-naturales/

Hello Elalceweb

Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.

It is known popular issue – filters widget shows the correct number of posts found, but posts are not filtered and remain the same. Possible reasons are:
- Wrong WP_Query selected in the “And what to filter?” field of the Filter Set. Please try to experiment with different WP_Queries in the dropdown.
- Cache issue (WP_Query is cached). You have to check and maybe disable your cache plugins or modules in your hosting provider dashboard.
- AJAX enabled but wrong value for CSS id or class of the Posts Container specified. Please, disable the AJAX feature, until you will ensure that filtering works in general.

Hi,

We ‘re using Pro version of plugin, and we need a category filter for woocommerc product categories. It works fine, and on archive pages it shows that category and subcategories. All categories can be displayed but with 0. Is it possible to create a filter for categories that shows all categories for shop with product numbers at shop level, not for the current archive page?

Thank you.

Hi marushy7

Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.

Please, write your support request from the account, where you purchased the plugin.

Thank you.

Hi there,

Just sent the credentials via PM. I double checked to make sure they work.

Just to recap, I need the filters to work within a single custom post type and a few custom fields. Each page below has a specific post type and a filter set. It seems to work when I’m logged in but not when I’m in a private window. I thought it might have been a caching problem so I tried to remove page caching on those two pages but it didn’t seem to help. The url changes depending on my search but items on the screen don’t.

I’m using the AVADA theme and the postcards feature. Updraft would not activate but I have the entire site backed up in two places.

The pages are below.

https://jgk.a50.myftpupload.com/alumni/ https://jgk.a50.myftpupload.com/current-scholars/

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi todd_flycreative

Thank you for using the plugin.

It may be cache on server level or maybe you have situation, when you show different content for your logged in and logged out users.

I tried to check your page, but it seems your site does not work for the moment. Please, let me know, when it will be available again.

Hello. Installed the Pro version. No Elementor or Gutenberg widgets. And it seems that the plugin doesn’t integrate flawless with the BuddyBoss theme. The text is not alligned with the checkboxes. And how to dissable the scrollbar to show all filter options?

Thanks, Daniel

https://wrapacademyonliner.kinsta.cloud/sample-page

Hello Daniel.

Thank you for purchasing the PRO.

In Elementor you have two ways to insert Filters widget – as regular WordPress widget (called Filter Everything — Filters) or as shortcode [fe_widget]. More about shortcods supported by the plugin you can find here – https://filtereverything.pro/resources/shortcodes/

Gutenberg modules has another philosophy of work and I’m not sure I will add them in future. But also I do not exclude this. Will see.

About you theme – it’s small CSS issue. Please add in the Filters -> Settings -> Experimental -> Custom CSS next code:
.widget-area li.wpc-term-item label:not(.bps-label), 
.wpc-filters-widget-main-wrapper li.wpc-term-item label:not(.bps-label){
    margin-bottom: 0 !important;
}

To remove scrollbar please add maximum height for example 1000 in Filters -> Settings -> Filter Container max height, px

Optionally you can use option Folding for a filter. In the next plugin update will be available the option “More/Less” to hide/show all extra filter terms.

hierarchy does not work, nothing happens when select it, and it shows product count even when i checked it out.

And we want to create a filter like this https://demo.filtereverything.pro/example/dropdowns/, I try everything and nothing seems to work

Hello grupointersat

Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.

Please, send me link to the page with this problem I will check it. Optionally you can send it via PM. Don’t forget to notify me about this under this my comment.

Thank you.

thank you

Thank you for credentials.

I have to say that hierarchy option works only for Checkboxes view. It is a bug that this checkbox is available for Dropdown view and I will fix this in the next plugin update. I changed view to Checkboxes and now hierarchy works. Please, check it.
