Good morning,
Our filter pro plug has always worked but with the latest update to Wordpress, it does not seem to be working. In fact, our entire website (www.deurbeslag-expert.nl) flips out when the filter pro is on, the free version is now on but that doesn’t work either. This one just doesn’t make the entire website fly out.
Several developers have already looked at it, which has already cost us a huge amount of money. Nothing works and we are now also seeing a decline in sales. This is because our filters are very important to our customers…..Please get help as soon as possible because we are really in trouble now.
Thanks in advance.
Hello wizkoms
I’m sorry that you have troubles with FIlter Everything PRO.
Usually such problem appears only if you updated your WordPress to the version 6.0 or higher, but did not update the plugin. Wiith WP 6.0 or higher Filter Everything is compatible only from the version 1.6.5 or higher. The latest FE version is 1.7.1 and it is available here on CodeCanyon, please update it.
Hi Stepasyuk, I am looking to have a filter set to a default value, i.e in stock.
That way in stock products would only show up, and a user would have to select show ‘out of stock’ to see those products.
Please let me know. I need it to apply to search as well.
Thanks,
Paul
theboardsource.com is the site I am referring to.
Hello pnett
Thank you for purchasing the plugin.
In general it depends from your WP_Query (Products query) whether to show or not only “In Stock” products or all them.
But also you can create filter by Stock status as it is in this example – https://demo.filtereverything.pro/example/by-stock/ and allow your visitors to show all products or only some of them.
The good practice is to modify WP_Query so that all Out of stock products will be sorted to the end of products list. IN this case all your Out of stock products also will be indexed by Google and potentially bring visotors from Google search.
Hey!
OUTSTANDING extension, thank you for all the hard work! really
I have a problem, we just purchased it and we got our heads around it, we also READ all the documentation, but we didn’t find this to be a common problem, please take a look here -> https://www.epickeys.ro/categorie-produs/windows i think we have some CSS issues (theme vs. plugin) because 1. it looks ugly and “old” (not how it looks in demo), 2. Filters sorta mixed together (Versiunea and Comercializarea) 3. Also the Price box looks weird. I will PM this to you also for faster support ! Website is in Open Beta. Cheers.
Hello JohnnyQ
Thank you for your warm words about the plugin 
1. Please, activate in Filters -> Settings -> Experimental checkbox “Styled checkboxes and radio buttons” to get nice checkboxes. Also you can activate “Improved dropdowns” close to the previous checkbox.
2. It is conflict with your theme styles. Please, add in Filters -> Settings -> Experimental -> Custom CSS:
#secondary .wpc-filters-widget-main-wrapper ul,
#secondary .wpc-filters-widget-main-wrapper ul li{
float: none;
}
3. It seems it is default style of input fields of your theme and you have to modify it by youself. I would be glad to help you with this, but it is something out of the CodeCanyon item support scope.
Hey man! Thanks for the fix, it works fine. I have no ideea what you referring to here:
3. It seems it is default style of input fields of your theme and you have to modify it by youself. I would be glad to help you with this, but it is something out of the CodeCanyon item support scope.
What’s the issue ? If you can help even “outside” here it’s fine, we want to have a nice website, but i have no ideea what you just said, i see no problem other than what i said above.
I’ve checked the suggested boxes in experimental, still no “nice” filters.
Can you tell me in detail, what do you meant by “It seems it is default style of input fields of your theme and you have to modify it by youself. I would be glad to help you with this, but it is something out of the CodeCanyon item support scope. “
Hi JohnnyQ
Sorry for the late response and thank you for your patience.
It means that if you add any input (text field) on your site it will look exactly as inputs in the range filter. My plugin as most of any other plugins do not set input styles, but only inherits these styles from your active theme.
But you can try to do next – go to the Filters -> Settings -> Experimental -> Custom CSS and add there next CSS:
.wpc-filters-widget-content .input-text, .wpc-filters-widget-content input[type=email], .wpc-filters-widget-content input[type=number], .wpc-filters-widget-content input[type=password], .wpc-filters-widget-content input[type=search], .wpc-filters-widget-content input[type=tel], .wpc-filters-widget-content input[type=text], .wpc-filters-widget-content input[type=url], .wpc-filters-widget-content textarea {
border: 1px solid #ccd0dc;
border-radius: 3px;
background: transparent;
box-shadow: none;
padding: 0.6180469716em;
padding-top: 5px;
padding-bottom: 5px;
}
This should help you to make inputs better.
I have no ideea what i’ve just did, but thank you, code added, i see no real difference to be honest, thank you very much also, for everything. Cheers
Hello, strange issue: We imported some new sale products which were displayed correctly on Sale page, but filter acted like they weren’t there (didť display such brands etc). After I resave the filter, filter is OK. Strange is, that we don’t using any caching plugin. We need to know what was causing it for future issues… Can you explain it please or give us a hint what could it be? Thanks Olaf
Hello, I made a video describing my problem. https://hanak.top-me.eu/filter-rado.webm — we imported/updated 4 Rado watches with sale price. Brand Rado doesn’t display in filter (yes I hard-refreshed page multiple times), after I updated Sale filter set – set for that page, it suddenly appeared (Rado brand).
Is there any cache in FE plugin? If yes, how often it refreshing?
This issue appears only in SALE products, nowhere else. Displaying products via shortcode [sale_products per_page=”30” columns=”3” paginate=”true”]
Hello anoagency
Thank you for extending support period.
Yes, FE uses internal cache, which resets every time, when you update any post/product/filter set in you WordPress dashboard. Or you can manually reset this cache if you open your website with parameter ?reset_filters_cache=true in URL. For example https://example.com/?reset_filters_cache=true
Optionally you can add such URL in the CRON on your server and it will fire automatically for example 1 time per 24 hours.
Hello,
I have a problem where the Filter everything widget does not show on the side bar when building pages using elementor.
Can you suggest anything to fix this?
Thanks,
Alan
Hello alan160
Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.
You have two ways to insert the Filters widget – as regular WordPress widget called “Filters – Filter Everything” or as shortcode [fe_widget]
In any case you also have to set the page or pages, where you want to see Filters widget in its Filter Set in the field “Where to filter?”.
Hi there…
Looking to remove the dashes ( – ) before and after each top level filter level label. Possible to filter these out?
For example… - Select Filter Item - needs to change to simply Select Filter Item
Thanks for your time!
Hello servowebster
Thank you for using the plugin.
You have several ways to change the string - Select %s - to your own:
1) To translate it with the Loco translate plugin or other software if you use not-English language on your site.
2) To use template overriding feature https://filtereverything.pro/resources/templates-overriding/ to override the dropdown.php template and replace the string.
I think the second way is more preferred for you if you use the English language on your site.
Hi, my website has over 20,000 products and the filtering is very slow. When I apply a filter, the products take about 10 seconds to display. Is there a way to increase the speed?
Hi mhfoster
Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.
You have performance issue and I have to say you that 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)
So you can increase the speed of the filtering process if you optimize one of several parameters from the list above.
Hello,
I’m having trouble with my license key.
I keep getting the “This license key already used for two sites” message.
When I was trouble shooting a caching issue a little while ago, I ended up having the site installed on a different server, and on my local machine but those are gone. I’m guessing that’s the problem… Is there a way to reset the key?
Just need to make sure that the plugin is updated on the production and staging sites.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Hello todd_flycreative
Indeed, you have to Deactivate your license key on your second site before to use it on a third domain. Without deactivation the system will think that you are trying to use it on the third site and will not allow to do this.
Yep. I got that piece, but the original testing sites don’t exist anymore… So, just so that I’m clear, deleting the site does not effect the license. I would have to deactivate the license before I delete the site? Is that correct?
Yes, exactly. You had to deactivate it before delete. Please, send me your license key and site’s URL I will deactivate it manually. You can send it via PM but please notify me here in this comments thread, that you did it.
Just sent over the license Key via PM. Thanks again for all of your help!
Hi todd_flycreative
Thank you for details you provided. Please, look in your email, I sent you one more question about this problem.
Any progress on import export? this would be fantastic!
Will be added in next updates.
I can notify you about that, if you will write your commnt from the account, where you purchased the plugin.
Thank you,
I am trying to find something, anything that will allow me to export my filter set and fields with relationships intact. We have to set these up every time we make a new site. I am really surprised there is no export/import. The WP import/export all suite comes close with their free version but it isn’t getting the relationships right. I would just do custom SQL but thats not always convenient. What would be absolutely ideal is if LIKE custom post type UI and ACF extended, you could click a button that would generate php code that can be put in the functions.php file to set up the filters WITHOUT the plugin. Just an Idea and I would donate $20 for this feature. Thanks!
Hello markstone417
Thank you for your interest in Filter Everything PRO.
The Import/Export feature is planned and will be added to the plugin in future updates. But there are some more urgent features, that should be implemented in the plugin before.
FYI, if you use PRO version, please write your support requests from the account, where you purchased the plugin.
Thank you.
hello I can’t activate the plugin with the key…
Hello mt-studio
Thank you for using the plugin.
Please, note that License key and CodeCanyon purchase code are different things. 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.
Sorry, I’m the owner of “Kreatic_ch” but I commented with the wrong account.
Hello alexdess
Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.
I checked your site and realized that it is not a plugin bug. The problem is in your data, which contains spaces before meta value – https://prnt.sc/F_rOX5nRb8Ym Please, fix this data and filter will work properly.
Hello,
I have a bug with the filter. Everything works fine except for the “Dispositifs médicaux” category on the “https://curmed.kreatic.ch/solutions/” page. The category displays 5 items (which is correct) but once the category is checked, only 3 items remain.
How do I fix this problem? The filter on the Type is a custom field.
I have sent a private message with the login information.
Thank you for your help.
Thank you for this plug-in.
I wanted to know if there is a step-by-step guide to put this filter on a Wordpress page like Home Page and how to build it to look like this – https://demo.filtereverything.pro/apply-button-redirect-to-results-page/
I can’t find a guide in the documents.
Thank you!
Hello gymstorem
Thank you for purchasing the plugin.
In general you have to configure Filters widget to work in regular mode. For example by this video or text instructions – https://filtereverything.pro/resources/quickstart/
After that you can enable Apply mode button and set Alternative Location. This alternative location will be the page, where Filters widget will be displayed and after clickin on the Apply button, user will be redirected to the page, selected in the “Where to filter?” field.
Hi there, thanks for your reply. I setup as per the video and I also read instructions.
The filter does NOT work like this page – https://demo.filtereverything.pro/apply-button-redirect-to-results-page/ on my website. It does not allow me to do it like that on a Wordpress page.
All I want is a step filter – Select brand, Select Product category, Select Model. “Apply”.
On my page it just shows the filter as one long filter, why? Why not a step filter like the one in the link above?
Here is my link, PLEASE help – http://gymparts.co.za/home-2/
Hello gymstorem
If you want to display all your filters in one line, you have to add next code in the functions.php of your theme:
<?php
add_action('wp_head', 'wpc_inline_filters');
function wpc_inline_filters(){
// Page IDs where this CSS should be displayed
if( is_page( array(4054) ) ):
?>
<style type="text/css">
@media screen and (min-width: 768px) {
.wpc-filter-set-4200 .wpc-filters-widget-wrapper{
display: flex;
width: 100%;
justify-content: flex-start;
flex-wrap: wrap;
}
.wpc-filter-set-4200 .wpc-filters-section{
width: 30%;
margin-right: 24px;
}
.wpc-filter-set-4200 .wpc-filter-content select{
width: 200px;
}
.wpc-filter-set-4200 form.wpc-filter-range-form{
max-width: 336px;
margin-right: 0;
}
.wpc-filter-set-4200 .wpc-filter-layout-submit-button,
.wpc-filter-set-4200 .wpc-inner-widget-chips-wrapper,
.wpc-filter-set-4200 .wpc-posts-found{
width: 100%;
}
.wpc-filters-widget-main-wrapper.wpc-filter-set-4200 a.wpc-filters-reset-button,
.wpc-filters-widget-main-wrapper.wpc-filter-set-4200 a.wpc-filters-submit-button {
width: 45%;
white-space: inherit;
display: flex;
align-items: center;
justify-content: center;
max-width: 240px;
margin-left: 24px;
}
.wpc-filter-set-4200 .wpc-filter-layout-submit-button{
justify-content: flex-end;
}
}
</style>
<?php
endif;
}
?>
But as i see you have already added only one Brand filter. Also you set URL prefix “test” which may conflict with other page slugs and this generates 404 error. Please set it “brand” or “thebrand” or something like that.
Hi there, Thank you for the code it does look better. You mentioned changing the URL prefix but it seems the plug-in won’t let me change it anymore, it is greyed out? Must I delete the filter set and create a new one? Also, I can’t do Brand -> Category -> Model because the plug-in does not allow this. So I can only do Brand -> Category/Product?
Thank you Sir
Hi gymstorem
No, you don’t need to delete whole filter. You can edit all URL prefixes in Filters -> Settings -> URL Prefixes.
I’m not sure, but it seems you tried to add two filters by the same entity. For example two filters by Brand but give them different names. You can not do this inside one Filter Set.
But if you want to use the Brand taxonomy twice, you can use next trick – to create two Filter Sets and add Brand filter inside each Filter Set. Also you can use option Include/Exclude terms to split them beetween two Filter Sets. And to display Filter widgets twice, you have to add two “Filters – Filter Everything” widgets on the page.
Hi there Stepasyuk, I am sorry but this is just getting more and more confusing for me. Is there no explanation for how to do the filter in the picture here circled in blue – http://gymparts.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Gymparts.co_.za_.png
That filter in blue circle is all I want, please. Must I add 3 filters to one filter set and use apply mode? What must I do, please this is 3 weeks now I don’t get this resolved. Thank you for your help.
Hi gymstorem
Please, send me credentials to your /wp-admin in accordance with this document I will check it myself. But please, do all things in accordance with the document to get a solution to the problem faster.
Thank you.
Hi there, thank you for the help. I have DM’d you.
Hi gymstorem
Thank you for your credentials.
Please, try to use it now on your http://gymparts.co.za/home-2/ and let me know if it works as you need.
The filters are working perfectly on a multisite configuration for quite some time (two almost mirrored sites and one staging), but it suddenly grayed out on one of them.
As there were not any (apparent or resent) changes/reconfigurations, could it be some administrative/license or other non-technical issues?
Hello gunterqb
Sorry for the late response.
Your single purshase here on CodeCanyon allows you to activate two sites – one main site, second its development version. The third site is not supported by single license and you have to buy separate license for it.
FYI your support period has already expired. If you will need help with the plugin, please extend your support period and I will be happy to help you or to answer your questions.
Hello, Would like to use the shortcode to add filter into my page. But, where to find the ID ??
I believe this plugin is not working as I expected. I see you can use a shortcode. All I want to do is have a dropdown list that displays products from a product category. Then, it redirects us to the selected product. I don’t believe this plugin can do that. If so, I would like to know how. I’ve read the guidelines several times, and I can’t seem to get this plugin to work.
Do you offer support for your plugin?
Hello barreoblique
Thank you for purchasing the plugin.
If you need to insert Filters widget via shortcode, you don’t need to use any ID. Just insert [fe_widget] in desired place.
Here you can find more about shortocdes – https://filtereverything.pro/resources/shortcodes/
But please make sure that you specified correct value for “Where to filter?” field of the Filter Set that matches to the page, where you want to use filters.
Let me know about the result.
FYI support for the plugin is available in business days only and response time is up to 2 business days.
Hello!
Finally, I decided to use a table plugin instead of yours. It fit better for this project. But, I keep your plugin. I have seen many positive reviews here and will definitely be using it in a future project. This will give me time to test it well.
Thank you for your feedback and sorry for my late response.
Cheers!
Hello barreoblique
Ok, sure. Thanks for letting me know.
Write me if you will have any questions about the plugin 
OK, thanks! 
Thanks again for the plugin!
I have created a custom taxonomy for WooCommerce named ‘brands’. It uses the filters set to display on all archive pages. The filters don’t seem to pre-populate when on a brand taxonomy term?
Also, when using the sorting widget, this sometimes resets the URL when using pagination.
Thanks!
Hello garethh3
If you open the brand archive page and there will be filter by brands, this brand should be automatically selected in filters list without opportunity to unckeck it. Please see example – for Calvin Klein brand page on Demo site – https://demo.filtereverything.pro/brand/calvin-klein/ If you do not have the same on your site it means something is wrong in your configuration.
Please, send me link to the page, where sorting widget URL resets on pagination page. Optionally you can send it via PM.
Hi, I have enabled vaious taxonomies on attachments to be able to filter images for example. But I don’t see that there is an option for filtering the attachment type. Please help! Best regards, Andreas
Hi Andreas
Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.
You can filter any public post types (which have own archives). By default Attachments is not public post type and if you want to make it able for filtering, you have to make it public. For example with function – https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/register_post_type/
Hello, how can I force indexing on all pages or specific pages?
It’s annoying that all filters are automatically set to “no-index”... would it be possible to reverse it and set all automatically to “index”?
I have tons of product filters, and creating a SEO rule for each of them is a lot of work.
If it is not possible, how can I select two values of the same filter for the SEO rule?
For example, ”.../genre-{any}” is indexed. But I would like to also index ”.../genre-{any}and{any}”
If you can give me some .php code, or tell me which file to edit will be really helpful. Thank you
Hello KayraFenix
Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.
I have to say that your situation is specific and in most of cases only some part of filtered pages should be indexed. That’s why by default all them have noindex status.
But if you need vice versa you can modify it in “wp-content/plugins/filter-everything-pro/pro/SeoFrontend.php” file that is responsible about indexing filter result pages.
Of course this expects that you are familiar with PHP or you have ask a developer to help you. Custom coding is not included in the CodeCanyon item support scope.
Hello, I just edited the SeoFrontend.php file, and it works perfectly. Thank you very much for the plugin and support.
Hello KayraFenix
Wow, its cool. Most of users are not so good in PHP to achieve this. Congratulations 
I would be thankful for positive 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 a long list of post tags which you have to scroll down with a scroll bar. If I select a tag from the bottom of the list, it refreshes and takes you all the way back to the top of the list. Is there a way to keep it where it is?
Thanks
Hi Enviousdigital
Sorry for the late response, account with expired support period have lowest priority in support request queue.
It is known problem and I thought how to solve it. In my opinion the best way is to sort filter term so that selected filters will always be sticked to the top of terms list. I have plans to implement this in next plugin versions, but I do not know, when this will happen as there are more urgent features that should be developed.
From other side you always can sort terms via hook ‘wpc_terms_before_display’ – https://filtereverything.pro/resources/hooks/#terms-before-display-hook and move selected to the top.
P.S. If you will need my support in the future, please, update your support period.
