I purchased your plugin but my client wasn’t happy with the speed / load times of the results being generated so we are now looking at alternatives. With AJAX and SEO rules enabled, the results could take several seconds to load (e.g. 5-7s would be common). It’s a large(ish) site but it’s on a fast dedicated server with various caching solutions.

My client currently uses https://www.fastsimon.com, which is rapid (filters load in a fraction of a second) but it’s terrible for SEO. They’ve also tested https://www.doofinder.com for search, which is equally as fast. However, neither of these have have any capabilities to set SEO rules for filter results, which was why we purchased Filter Everything Pro to begin with.

We’ve now purchased https://products-filter.com (Husky) which is fast with their Turbo Mode (https://products-filter.com/extencion/turbo-mode) enabled but it’s still not as good as Filter Everything Pro for SEO configuration.

Are you able to provide anything like this or a solution to generate instant filter results with your plugin?

Can you please advise ?

I installed Filter Everything PRO on two test sites. I’m ready to install it on the live version of the website, but my activation key can only be used on 2 sites total. I already deleted the test sites, so I can’t deactivate the plugin on them. Is there any way to cancel the old activation key and set up a new one?

I can’t find a way to deactivate the old key. I don’t want to buy another license, I just want the old license to be disconnected from the 2 sites I no longer need.

I’ve already answered you here https://codecanyon.net/comments/29328176 Let’s contintue our conversation in that thread.

Hello, I bought the plugin to be able to use the “Sort” widget but that does not work, the page loads but the items are always sorted in the same way site : https://mp-marketplace.fr/products/

Good evening, finally after a lot of research and a little tour in the code, I managed to solve the problem. I use the “Blocksy” theme and I had set the default to use a certain sort. This is what meant that each time, regardless of the sort chosen with the “Filtereverything” widget, it did not change anything in the sort because it was the default one in my theme that was used (overwrite). To solve the problem, I therefore had to deactivate the use of a sort by default from my “Blocksy” theme.

Hello youssefe74

Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.

I’m glad that your issue was solved, thank you for your notification about that.

Regards.

I cannot display two results at the same time, can you help?

Here is a screenshot: https://einfacheinonlineshop.de/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/Screenshot-2023-03-09-170205.jpg

You can see that there are two categories selected. But only one is showing in the results. You also see that in both categories there is one product each. So both products should show. When I select them individually, they each do show – just not when I select both at the same time. What can I do to show both at the same time?

Thank you!

Hello dufflio

It seems I already answered you to this question here – https://codecanyon.net/comments/29269233

Hello

kindly note that I added your filter plugin to my website as horizontal style then I customized it. please check the link https://allbrandsfactoryoutlet.com/new/shop/

but I have problem when I click on the button it’s opened but it’s not closed after I click outside I should click the same button so could you please help me to fix it ?

I mean I want close the button after click outside the button or click other button

Best regards Rawaf

Other question can I use different filter one for mobile and one for desktop?

Hello hi4web

Thank you for using the plugin and sorry for the late response. From one side support here does not provide custom coding, but I see that now it works not very convenient.

So add please on your site pages next JavaScript code:
document.addEventListener('click', function handleClickOutsideBox(event) {
  const clicked = $(event.target);
  if ( clicked.parents('.wpc-filters-section').length > 0 ){
      return true;
  }

  if ( clicked.parents('.wpc-filter-content').length < 1 ){
      $(".wpc-filters-section").removeClass('wpc-opened')
                             .addClass('wpc-closed');
  }
});
And also add next CSS code. You can place it in Filters -> Settings -> Experimental – Custom CSS:
.wpc-filter-has-selected .wpc-filter-content{
    display: none;
}

This should solve the problem.

About different filters – yes, sure. You can place two Filter Sets on your page and put there shortcode with your custom filters open button that will open desired Filter Set on mobile devices. Please read more about the button here – https://filtereverything.pro/resources/shortcodes/#open-button

Hello

thank you for your response

it’s working fine when I click on anywhere in page thank you but it’s not close when I click on other button I hope you can do it also it will be perfect

for mobile version I will try it thank you

Best regards Rawaf

Good afternoon! Please help me with a Bricks Builder theme plugin with Woocommerce. The filter works only on the store page, and on the page with categories it does not work with ajax. If I turn on filtering by the apply button, then it redirects to the store page. Screen recording attached with settings: https://video.pxls.es/conversations/2c53c169-3df7-5257-bd5b-eb47c04de1ac Thank you

And also I think I found a bug in which the product is given a 404 error. Please correct me or give some solution. If a product’s name starts and matches the filter’s URL Prefix, then all such products fall into a 404 error, and it doesn’t matter what comes after or before in the url. Here is a video recording of the screen: https://video.pxls.es/conversations/490ca32b-6d05-5eff-9f8b-70ec054ef414 Thank you

I also ask you to tell me how you can make it so that when you go to a category, only subcategories are displayed and opened (without a parent one, and even more so without a category in which one of these products is also present). Those. so that you can scroll through the hierarchy and see only the following subcategories. Thank you

And one more request to suggest how you can pull up images of brands and colors from the fields of the Woodmart theme into your filters. I tried to make it a function according to the documentation, but it did not work. Thank you

Thank you for your reply! There are almost 1000 categories and it would be unrealistic to create a new filter for each one. Is there any action required of me so that you can find a solution? I really hope for a solution to this problem soon.

Hello. Can you please tell me if there is a solution for Bricks? I read the comments a fortnight ago that they were planning to implement it.

Hello Turvodnik

I’m glad to inform you that I already fixed issue with Filter Set for common categories pages and Bricks Builder. I do not release it in the new plugin update, but I can provide you with intermediate release where this problems is fixed. Please, check your email, I sent you direct link to this intermediate version.

I created a filter set for my elementor loop grid. 1 – It doesn’t work 2 – I tried to modify the set and here is the error message but without explanation : An error occurred. Set fields were not saved, please try again. Can you help me please ?

I fond the solution myself. I guess it was the licence that I didn’t included.

Hi jdyadan

I’m glad that your problem was solved and thank you for your notification about that :-)

Love the Filter Anything plugin… great stuff. Is there any way to increase the line length of categories listed in the widget? You can see our category labels are relatively short, yet some still break over two lines. https://staging2.vistastrawberryfest.com/plan-your-day/schedule/ Thank you for your help.

Hello wchornung

Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.

As I see on your site you have enabled the “Horizontal layout” for the Filters widget, but it seems you don’t need to use it in that place. Please, disable this mode and it will work as expected. Here is example of appropriate checkbox – https://prnt.sc/tdEPx0b2oLI-

Hi, My co-worker and I are trying to get chips to update with AJAX turned on, however, it will not work on custom wp_querys and with the default blog posts. However, it works perfectly without AJAX. Suggestions?

Hi p20_mstockton.

Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.

Please, ask you co-worker to write this support request from the account, where they purchased the plugin.

Thank you. Regards.

Hi Andrii, I was wondering where to change the setting in order to use the smart filtering by Woo product variations.

My current filter set (color, brand, size, gender) is still forwarding me to the variabel product and the product variation on the variable product page is not being selected depending of the chosen filter. Is there a documentation explaining how to adjust the setting? Best Julian

Hi julianw30

Thank you for the details. I expected to see also URL with filtered results, where unappropriate products are shown (for example if you selected color – black, size – 40, but see products that does not match to this selection)

If you mean that you expects that in filtered results for variable product its main image should be changed in accordance with selected filters, such option requires additional coding from you. By default such this is not supported by the plugin because it depends more from a theme, than from the Filter Everything PRO plugin. Also such option potentially has conflicts because if user selects “black + brown” I’m not sure what exactly image should be displayed for such product.

Hi Andrii, sry for the confusion, and thanks for the update. I expected when filtering as follows https://staging.fairlier.de/fairlier-shop/groesse-40/f-braun/

I will be redirected to the product detail page (https://staging.fairlier.de/produkt/alma-mokka/ ) and have the size 40 and color brown already selected as filtered on the shop page.

In terms of user experience, that is what I want. Currently, I have to re-select the size and color, although I have already filtered for those attributes.

The plugin can not provide this than, correct?

Best Julian

Hi Julian.

Indeed, filtering affects on a products list, but not on displaying of particular products. What exactly image and what exactly attributes will be selected when you see particular product depends more from your theme features, but is not a part of filtering process in general.

From another side you goal can be achieved via custom coding and you can add relation between selected filters and selected attibutes, when you open a product page from filtering results page. I can not write such code for you, but I can provide you or your developer with technical information and plugin functions that should be used in implementing of such task.

Hi Stepasyuk! With our website, we have a custom post for presentations. Sometime we have 2 person speaking in a presentation So we have 2 fields: speaker1 and speaker2.

Is there a way to put both fields (speaker1 and speaker2) in the same dropdown list for a filter?

Is there a way to collapse/hide by filter instead of all? I have a page with two filters setup. The first one is categories only and I want it always visible. No need for the button and also it is odd to have two on the page. I tried hiding it with css, but then have no way for it to default open…so the filter is hidden.

Hello bogaat

I’m not sure I understand you clear.

If you mean to show/hide filter in dependancy from selected values in another filter, you can use option “Parent filter” in the “More options” section of a filter.

If you want to hide some specific filter by CSS you can check its HTML in Chrome Console and you will find that every filter has its own unique CSS class, that allows you to manipulate with each filter individually.

If these advices are not related with the result you need, please provide me with more detailed explanation of what you need. For example link to the page, screenshot would be very helpful.

Thank you. Regards.

Hi, I’m struggling with configuring the plugin correctly. My Filter Set is showing correctly, but once I choose a filter [e.g.: subcategory/price rage], the products are not affected. I’ve gone over the documentation [with my limited knowledge] and can’t find a solution. I think it’s got something to do with CSS ID / Posts Container Class. Can you help me out, please?

I am using Astra theme, elementor builder, woolentor shop plugin [product archive layout] and I’ve implemented the filter through a widget sidebar.

I am PMing you a link to one of the affected pages & admin panel access

Hi ramon96

Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.

I checked your site and realized that you use specific WP_Query in the template for the “Mugs” Product category page. In this case you have also use Filter Set directed to this Product category instead of to direct it to “Any Category”. I changed the value in the “Where to filter?” field and also selected Product query #2 and now all works fine. Please, check it.

Thank you. Regards.

Thank you so much, I will try to replicate your process on the rest of the category pages :) I love your filter plugin, well done

I’m glad that your issue was solved :-)


If it is possible I would be thankful for a positive review about the plugin here on CodeCanyon – https://codecanyon.net/item/filter-everything-wordpress-woocommerce-filter/reviews/31634508

Thank you in advance!

Hallo, the filter works fine. But it shows a several warnings at the frontend, although everything works fine… can I somehow disable the warnings so that they are not visible by the user ?

The warning above the filter says:

Warning: extract() expects parameter 1 to be array, null given in /home/customer/www/vonbonn.com/public_html/wp-content/plugins/filter-everything-pro/src/Admin/Widgets/FiltersWidget.php on line 33

Have a good daz, bye.

hey, can u please help…

Hello jordans420

Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO plugin.

It’s strange that you have this error, but try please to do next steps: - to update the plugin to the latest version 1.7.5
- to re-save Filters widget settings.

And this error should gone away. If not, please let me know. Thank you. Regards.

I need to be able to have you be able to submit a search box. We have a field with sock number and there is no way to type in a stock number and submit without the drop down or list etc. There are over a 1000 products. It is the only thing we have left to get this to work. If I hide the drop down etc, You can put text in but nothing happens when you click apply.

Hello one80group

As I already answered you in another comment, you can use regular WordPress search form with adding inside it parameter post_type=product and this field will allow you to search through WooCommerce products.

Thank you. Regards.

Hi there, we are having a issue with this plugin in the combination with Elementor and the Elementor Pro latest version using the Hello Theme. Everything up to date

When I try to edit a page (any built with Elementor) I’ll get the message “cannot edit page there was an error with elementor” or “the_content area was not found on this page”

To test this I included a child theme with a page template using just the basic info (get_header, the_content, get_footer), selected this template and the error still exits. As soon as I deactivate Filter Everything all pages can be edited again.

Hi axel-ritter

Thank you for your report.

Please, send me credentials to your /wp-admin in accordance with this document and details about the issue (link to the page, where you receive this error) I will check it myself.

Thank you.

Hi Stepasyuk, sent you the credentials according to the document.

Hi axel-ritter

Thank you for the credentials. I checked your site and realized that the reason is in your URL prefix “var” I changed it to “varxxx” and now all works fine. Please, try to use another URL prefix, but not just “var”.

Thank you. Regards.

Hello,

I would like to realize the following:

2 Filtersets in Same Page.

The following filter options should be possible on a WooCommerce category page:

Filter set 1:

Manufacturer, model, color, size, style

Filter set 2: Price range

When I create it in this way and insert it into the category page with a shortcode, the filter set 1 works perfectly, but in Filterset 2 only EUR 0 is shown in the Price Range. If I add the “Price Range” filter in Filterset 1, it works.

However, I would like to have it detached from each other. The user should choose his criteria in Filterset 1 and then, if he likes in Filter Set 2 (Price), can still limit his price.

How can I realize that?

Hello dwinger

In general if the Price filter shows you 0 – 0 it means that it configured wrong somewhere. Possible places can be – “_price” meta key or you selected wrong WP_Query in the Filter Set 2. I recommend you to check both these moments in the Filter Set 2.

Also when you use shortcodes, please do not use ID attribute in them. Just insert [fe_widget] and before to check filtering, please update both Filter Sets.

Hello,

Ah ok I always had an ID assigned as that made sense to me. Is this a bug or a feature?

now it works, at least if you still consider the priority of the filter.

Best regards Daniel

Hello dwinger

The shortcode [fe_widget] supports ID attribute but it is used only to manually set desired priority of a Filter Set. But you also can change Filter Set priority directly in a Filter Set settings.

Can you please answer “ermacece” comment? I too have the same issue, with the “Where to Filter” settings set to “Search results page for selected Post Type”, it shows the correct filter options that I want. But when i use the the Elementor pro “Search form” bar, it goes to a different page and does not show the same filter results.

Also i am not using woo commerce as i read the it is not necessary for the filter so work correctly.

(Plugins used: Elementor Pro, Advanced Custom Fields, Filter Everything)

Hello cuongnguyent85

Thank you for using Filter Everything PRO.

Sure, I will answer to the “ermacece” user soon, but it seems you have another reason of the similar problem.

In general examples with filtering of search results here and here based on WordPress regular search widget, which works through the ?s=keyword parameter in URL of the results page.

I’m not sure the Filter Everything PRO is compatible with Elementor Search form but as option I can check it on your site if you send me credentials to your /wp-admin in accordance with this document

Please, let me know.

UDP: I’m sorry, I was wrong. It seems your problem is the same as for user “ermacece”.

So my problem is the Search bar goes to the search page ”?s=keyword” but my filter goes to this page ”?s=keyword&post_type=deals”. Is there a way to make the elementor search form go to the filter results page ”?s=keyword&post_type=deals”

thanks

Hello cuongnguyent85

In general this question is not relaed with the Filter Everything PRO plugin, but with the Elementor plugin. But anyway I can help you with this. Please, write me PM and I will provide you with details.

Thank you. Regards.

What to do ?

Uncaught Error: Class “FilterEverything\Filter\Shortcodes” not found in /home/clients/12345abcde/website/wp-content/plugins/filter-everything-pro/src/Plugin.php:23 Stack trace: #0 ... #8

Hello typhonb.

It’s very strange that you got such error. Maybe you uploaded plugin files via FTP and some of theme were lost? I recommend you to upload plugin files once more via FTP or via /wp-admin -> Plugins – Add New -> Upload

Please, let me know if it was helpful.

I did it. Let see Thank you

Hi Stepasyuk,

thank you very much for your great plugin! Works great out of the box. I would like to change the image size of the color swatches (default 25:25).

I’ve read that this is possible with the wpc_swatches_width_height hook, but actually i am not quite sure how to do that.

Could you please send me an short example, what the code in my functions.php should look like to change the color swatches images dimensions to e.g. 100×50?

Thank you very much and best regards!

Till

Hi Stepasyuk, thank you very much for your fast response! Perfect, that works without any problems! I have another question: If i want to add another taxonomy to the Brand Filter (e.g. “Brand”), would this be the right way to do it?

//add_filter( ‘wpc_brand_filter_entities’, ‘my_custom_fe_brand’ ); //function my_custom_fe_brand(){ //return [‘brand’]; }

Thank you very much! Send you a positive review!

Hi tillvb

Thank you for the review.

Regarding new Brand taxonomy. It would be correctly to do it next:
add_filter( ‘wpc_brand_filter_entities’, ‘my_custom_fe_brand’ ); 

function my_custom_fe_brand( $brand_entities ){ 
$brand_entities[] = 'brand'; // your new taxonomy for brands
return $brand_entities; 
}

Perfect, thank you! 5 Stars for the plugin and your support!
