Greetings of the day,
I hope this email finds you well. I have purchased your lovely plugin and wanted to use it in my website. I want to filter my custom posts with custom taxonomy and custom fields. I created a filter set and have assigned a page for the posts and used the short code of the plugin in the page. The filters don’t filter the posts list. I tried to fix it with assigning a custom id for the posts but still nothing works. Please guide me or help me solve this problem.
I am looking forward to your assistance.
Hello hudabirashk
Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.
I have to say that it is known issue when 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.
Sorry, I have gone through the previous comments but still, even after selecting “use for variations” the Range option is grayed out (as someone else also posted previously). I am pretty sure I have just imported numeric values, it’s a custom field….
solved
Hello fringuello85
Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.
I’m glad that your problem is already solved 
Hello, Stepasyuk!
I have this strange bug going on in my website. The problem is that filter is filtering correctly through Ajax for Administrator user and e-shop administrator. For all other users filter does not work. Neither with Ajax, nor with page reload. Could you please check it out and let me know what is wrong? Webpage is pradesiunuopirmadienio.lt I can send you temporary login.
Thanks!
Hello wwwPNP
It looks like you display different content for your logged in and non-logged in users.
If you need my further support, please update your support period as current is already expired.
Thank you.
That’s right! Users who have created account are unlocked for filter section. Although it works only for users with role set to: “Administrator”. I want to make sure that with support renewal the problem will be solved.
Hi wwwPNP
I’m not sure It will be easy to solve the issue. Because to “catch” filtered WP_Query my plugin loads it under logged in user. And to create Filter Set for non-logged in users means that you have to “catch” it first under logged in user, than change your page and show this WP_Query for non-logged in users. I think this is possible, but requires to do such tricks and to insert two shortcodes for Filter widgets in dependently from logged-in/logged-out user status.
Hey, Stepasyuk!
I will be a little bit more specific. All users become automatically logged in after they buy membership in our website. When membership is active, specific block in the post page is revealed with all the filters. This block is hidden from non-sub visitors. The problem in my website is that filter works only for “Administrator” users. And clients who bought membership are set to be subscribers/buyers. Any ideas why the filter is not filtering correctly? I saw the same problem had other user as well here: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/filter-only-works-logged-in-users/
It is good that all you visitors are logged in. It looks like solving of such issue should be easier.
In general if you show two different post loops for your two different user groups, you have to create two Filter Sets for every such post loop. But to “catch” WP_Queries for both of them, you have to display both these loops simultaneusly and at this moment update your both Filter Sets.
Hello Step,
There is only one user group in my case – subscribers. There is only one post loop. I don’t understand why its working for me as website administrator, but not for them. Maybe I could tweak some options in settings so the filter would work for them? Or is there another issue? Maybe I could give you access to the website so you could see where the problem hides?
Hi Step,
I uploaded filter to test page here: https://pradesiunuopirmadienio.lt/testing-filter/And I get this error: Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading ‘replaceWith’) at Object.success (filter-everything.min.js?ver=1.6.5:1:8441) at c (jquery.min.js?ver=3.6.1:2:28327) at Object.fireWith [as resolveWith] (jquery.min.js?ver=3.6.1:2:29072) at l (jquery.min.js?ver=3.6.1:2:80045) at XMLHttpRequest.<anonymous> (jquery.min.js?ver=3.6.1:2:82499)
Maybe this is the reason filter does not work for other users as well? If you need the updated plugin support for this case, let me know.
Is the filter pro pricing a one time fee? No annual fees?
Hello nikgordon33
Thank you for your interest in Filter Everything PRO.
Yes, exactly. You have to pay one time for the plugin and you will get lifetime udpates for it. This allows you to use the plugin on two websites – on your production website and on its development copy.
How do I remove Select {placeholder} from the dropdown and keep my own placeholder in place?
Hello ovchtc
Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.
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.
3) To use hook ‘wpc_dropdown_default_option‘ if you are familiar with PHP development.
Hi there, how can I exclude pages from having a filter? on one website I did this in the widget section but on my other website, this function is not there anymore.
Hi sbkrick
Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.
If you want to hide Filters widget on some pages you can use plugin “Widget logic” that allows you to add conditions where to show or hide a widget.
This should work with the Divi Theme but I cannot find the widget to add it to the site after creating a filter set.
Stepasyuk – ignore that request. I have added the widget to a test category page and while it looks like it is displaying everything for the filters correctly, when you make a selection, it does not display any results. https://terpstaging.wpengine.com/product-category/quartz-bangers/ What am I doing wrong?
Hello Smaht_Ideas

- 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.
Stepasyuk – what is happening is, you try the filter and hit apply and you go to a page that says ‘no results found’ even though the filter says there are. If I can’t resolve this and get it to work, unfortunately will need a refund on the Pro version.
Hello Smaht_Ideas
It seems you use function “Apply button” which may be not so easy to configure if you use the plugin first time. Try please to configure it in regular mode without “Apply button” mode and then, after you will ensure that it works in regular mode, try please to enable and configure “Apply button” feature. Also, pleas do not enable AJAX, until you configure all these things.
You always can creaate a refund request in the from in your account on CodeCanyon, but to get refund you have to provide reason that meets CodeCanyon Refund Policy Rules. Please, check them here – https://codecanyon.net/page/customer_refund_policy
Thank you. Regards.
Stepasuk – I have requested a refund as the plugin is not working still after trying all of your suggestions.
Hello Smaht_Ideas
Ok, sure. I see your request, it will be processed as soon as possible.
Hello we asked this question last year and wanted to recap this from about 2 months ago.
If you will purchase PRO I will provide you with code example how to add images for the terms.
Also how can I export items to then import back in? Used for backups and such, thank you very much, we are working our way through options now to see how this filtering can work for our needs, it’s honestly the best we could find to date, yet not a bloated mess like many are becoming today.
Less is always more
Hello ingenuitor
I have good news for you. From that moment I have already added full support of images and color swatches for filter terms. You can read more about them here – https://filtereverything.pro/resources/brands-and-color-swatches/
Thank you for you warm words about the plugin. I would be thankful to read them in reviews for the plugin here on CodeCanyon – https://codecanyon.net/item/filter-everything-wordpress-woocommerce-filter/reviews/31634508
Thank you in advance!
Thank you and how can I export / import filters / settings back in? Used for backups / staging and such, thanks.
Hello ingenuitor.
Unfortunately the export/import feature for the moment is not developed for the plugin because there are more urgent features that should be done before. But I already have this task in my development schedule and will add it in future plugin updates.
Hello! Pre-sale question: I have a job site using WP User Frontend Forms Pro, and Filter Everything (free).
WPUF uses URL parameters for registration/subscription links, and it seems to be clashing with FIlter Everything, even though the parameter slugs are different. It just shoes 404 pages whenever I try to visit a non-search page with URL parameters – I see that Filter Everything Pro lets you choose the pages it shows up on, so would getting Pro solve this issue?
It also gives a 404 error with any standard page with a similar page slug. For example, I have a filter parameter called “salary”, and a page with the slug “salary-transparency” – it won’t load! When I remove “salary” from the slug, it works fine
Hello bojomedia
Please, provide me with links to the pages with this problem. You can optionally send them via PM. For the moment I can’t say if this problem can be solved with Filter Everythig PRO.
Thank you.

Hi,
I checked free version and would like to go with PRO version, I would like to know if your plugin supports filters for wordpress admin? We would like to add filter to ALL PRODUCTS page on woocommerce. Can please suggest if this is possible with hooks.
Hi csoftech
Thank you for your interest in Filter Everything PRO.
I’m not sure what you mean “filters for admin”. If you need filters in the WordPress dashboard (admin panel) my plugin does not allow you to filter inside dashboard. Only in frontend.
About all WooCoomerce pages – yes, it works on any page – Shop, Product Category, Product Tag, Taxonomy archive, date, author archive etc. On singular pages it also works, but you have to create individual Filter Sets for every singular page.
Hello! Is it possible to show in dropdown filter only options which have values in them?
Hello inbox23
Yes, sure. Just set the option “Empty terms” -> “Always hide” in your Filter Set.
Hello! How to remove stock text which comes with Dropdown filter? (- Select %S -)? I want it to be empty.

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.

Hello! How to remove “Edit Filter Set” announcment under the filter which could be seen through ADMIN view?
Hello inbox23
It seems you know that it is visible for logged in administrators only. But if you need you can hide it with simple CSS:
.wpc-edit-filter-set{
display: none;
}
You can add it in Filters -> Settings -> Experimental -> Custom CSS.
Two different filter sets for two different page sections but for the same custom field don’t work independently – https://study.ptc.edu.au/units. (Ajax is disabled.) Also, filters don’t work if I set a page as the home page.
Hello jaredhood
Thank you for using FIlter Everything PRO.
I have to say that two Filters by the same custom field on the same page can not work independently. Both of them use the same filter slug and URLs with their filter parameters looks identically. So if you open page with URL that contains filter slug for this custom field, both filters in both Filter Sets will be affected. It is expected behaviour.
If you want to use filters on your Homepage, please try to set different options in the “Where to filter?” field:
1. “Common WordPress pages” -> “Homepage”
2. “Pages” -> “Your home page name”
One of them should work for you.
Please help! The filter isn’t showing up on the single product page. I followed the procedures in the documentation to no resolve.
Hello jahbiz777
Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.
It seems you did not configure your Filter Set correclty. If you use “Apply button” mode I recommend you to configure Filter Set without it first and to check if filters appear on the page. Also you have to insert Filters widget in the widget area that appears on your single pages.
Please, let me know if it was helpful for you.
same issue. im running the following wordpress, woocommerce, wcfm… the filter works everywhere excepts for the single product page. i dont know if youre familiar with my setup, ...Can you test it and your side if possible and help me to resolve ASAP
Hello, we have included “Product Categories” as a filter but they are not adjusting for each sub-category we click in to. They are always top level showing all categories. All of the other filters in the same set are adaptive in that options are hidden if theyre not added to products you are viewing.
Hello AP4571
Thank you for purchasing the plugin.
Plese, provide me with link to the page with such example. And also screenshot with short explanation would be great. Optionally you can send it via PM, but let me know here in comments about this.
Thank you.
Hi, we’ve created a filter set with four filters and some SEO rules. We’d like to add indexed URLs to our sitemap.xml to fasten Google indexing of those kind of pages. Do you know any tips/tools to accomplish this? We’re currently using Yoast to automatically create our sitemap (posts, pages, categories, ecc…) but we’re available to change method if we can have control on this kind of customization.
Hi stockton78
Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.
I already started to work on this feature inside my plugin but for different reasons I could not to finish it. I hope this will happen in next months.
In general I do not know any WordPress tool (plugin) that can help you to achieve that. But I think such desktop software that parses all possible URLs on a site should exists. If I’m not mistaken “Screaming frog” is such tool.
Hi there. I have an issue with the checkboxes and radio buttons.
Clicking on the link works and filters the item. However, selecting the checkbox or radio button portion doesn’t work.
Any advice.
Hi smashdigital22
Please, send me link to the page with example of this issue. Optionally you can send it via PM.
Thank you.
Hello Andrii, I need your help please. In one of my websites (https://di-strategies.com/c/resume-templates/style-best/ ; generatepress theme) you helped me to customize functions.php so that seo rules work correctly. Now I copied this site to new domain (1:1 copy along with the customization code in functions.php) and seo rules are not working. This is a website: https://careerup-strategies.com/c/resume-templates/style-best/. Could you please have a look why these seo rules are not working on this copied site?
Hello effa54
It looks like your site is closed from indexing at all. In tnis case SEO Rules do not work.
right, thanks!
I’m glad that the problem was solved
Hello there.
I’m using the filter on a car rental website, but I haven’t found a way of adding an availability filter. Basically, what I would need is a way of adding a range with 2 datepickers and sort the products available in that range. From reading trough the comments here, I understood that it’s work in progress. This availability feature it’s a must have on a rental website, my client insist on it too, I can try to extend my deadline a bit, but before I do that I need to know:
Can you give a realistic date estimation for when it will be available?
Thank you.
Hello Ovidiu
I think this will be finished in March 2023, not faster. Unfortunately there are more urgent features that should be implemented first.
