Hi,

I’m trying to set up various taxonomy numeric filters but I can’t get them to work with my current configuration. Problem is that my numbers have units attached to them. It works if I remove them, but I would like to keep the units for visual reasons. Is there any way to work around that? It would be enough if there would be an option to just ignore every non-numeric value in a given term name or if I could specify characters or phrases to ignore across all terms.

Thank you :)

Lena

Hello Lena

Thank you for choosing Filter Everything PRO.

In general the problem is that if yout taxonomy terms contain non-numeric values they can not match to the result SQL query that selects them in fitlering process. When the SQL query is like this:
... WHERE meta_value >= 5 ...

it does not work for values 5mm or 5kg.

So the only possible way is to store in taxonomy terms only numeric values, but before to display these terms somewhere to add units to them via hooks.

Thank you. Regards.

Well, that’s unfortunate, but thank you for the explanation. I’ll find a way to work around it. :)

Hi , i need to know if possible to create filter set contains advance filters option or not ? For example filters will contain two main drop down fields and advance search button , when someone click on it , it’s will display the rest of filter options, thanks

Hi HANA21518

I’m not sure I understood you correctly. But if you need to show by default only several filter options, but after click to show rest options, you can use feature “More/Less” that works as Size filter there – https://demo.filtereverything.pro/product-category/clothing/women/color-red/brand-hm/c-kind-dress/?max_price=100

Also if you need to allow visitors to search through filter terms, you can enable “Search field” option for the filter and it will work like field in the Color filter on the same page

But if you need something another you always can to add your own HTML for any filters using Templates Overriding feature – https://filtereverything.pro/resources/templates-overriding/

Thank you. Regards.

Hello I use acf checkboxes (radios) for filter options. The meaning of checkboxes in Cyrillic. When selecting one of the filter items, the Cyrillic alphabet is also substituted into the URL. How to translate these values into Latin. I need Latin in the URL

after updated post with checkboxes on Cyrillic, in filter url on Cyrillic too. and I need update Filter for update url to Latin. and it happens all the time. how to fix it?

Hello jagged_star613

Sorry for the late response.

To have latin values in filter URLs you have to make latin values in your custom fields. Filter Everything does not modify and does not translate data received from Custom Fields. Also from many technical and compatibility reasons if it is possible we do not recommend you to use Cyrillc values in Custom Fields.

If you updated you values in Custom Field, updated your posts but still see the old values in filters, it means you have to reset filters cache. Please, open your site with additional paramter in URL – ?reset_filters_cache=true. For example https://example.com/?reset_filters_cache=true

Thank you. Regards.

Thank you. Regards.

Hi, is there a way to only show specific filters in certain product category page? E.g if I want to have specific width height and length filters that only show up when I go 3 levels deep in my category menu such as All Products > School > Table and hide the dimension filters when browsing All Products or All Products > School as in these 2 levels they could show products that don’t all have the same type of dimension naming.

Hi andufva

Thank you for the question.

In general it can be done via hiding/showing Filters widget on desired pages. You can achieve this in many different ways, for example with Widget logic plugin or custom coding and displaying different widget areas in dependancy from the category level.

In general out of the box Filter Everything allows you to direct Filter Set on specific category only, on all category pages and on a category with all its children category pages.

Regards.

Thank you for your answere! How to do it in my case for ACF meta field? Help me please

Hi!

I just purchased your plugin, and I get an “Unknown error” when I try to activate the license. What must I do?

Thanks Marcus

Hi skipjack66

Thank you for choosing Filter Everything PRO.

Usually it is temporary issue and maybe now you can activate it if you will try again.

But if not, please send me:
1. Credentials to your /wp-admin in accordance with this document
2. You License key generated on the Filters -> Settings -> License tab

and I will activate it manually on my side.

Thank you. Regards.

Product categories in filter everything pro are not displayed correctly. In other words, when you select the main category on the page, the filter tells you, for example, that 33 products were found, and when you select a subcategory afterwards, the filter tells you that 29 products were found. However, these filtered products are not updated in Woocommerce’s Product widget. The Product widget only shows all the products of the online store in the default order all the time, regardless of what is selected in the filtering. Is this due to an AJAX issue or what could it be? Could the problem be solved by making Advanced custom fields from the product categories, if filter everything does not search for them from the Woocommerce product categories?

Hello Albmir

Thank you for your interest in Filter Everything PRO.

I have to say that things you described in your comment are consequence of the wrong configured filters. But from another side support here is provided only for accounts with purchased license.

If you need our support, please write your request from the account, where the plugin is purchased.

Thank you. Regards.

Hello,

Is there a way to add SEO Rules for the combination of 2 parameters of the same filter, for example the combination of 2 categories or two product colors (in the URL they are concatenated by or)?

e.g.: https://dinasti.mx/tienda/categoria-esclavas-or-pulseras

In the dashboard you can only combine one parameter per filter. Is there any way to add the meta tags <title> and <description> to this kind of combinations, even by adding them by code to the theme?

Hello alinnovatr

Thank you for the question.

If you mean situation, to create SEO Rule for the situation, when you select several terms of the same filter (for example Color blue + yellow simultaneously) it is not possible in the plugin out of the box. This was done to avoid sanctions from Google for search spam.

Because people very rarely use search keyphrase like “buy blue or yellow woman dress”. Usually “yellow woman dress” or “blue woman dress”. Also if to allow to index such combinations there will be a lot of automatically generated pages with “index” status. And Google can lower the rating of such a site.

Thank you. Regards.

Hello, I purchased the plugin Yesterday but have a question for now. Before buying the plugin I saw a field “Custom Numeric field” pro version. so when I bought the plugin I can’t see that field. Could you provide some info how to set for example price range, length or weight ranges?? best

Hello artyom1987

We already received refund request from you and it will be processed as soon as possible.

Thank you. Regards.

Hello Stepanyuk, Ok, wwaiting for the refund process. Thanks.

Hello Stepanyuk, One more time I would like to remind you about the refund acceptance as within the period of the refund request I can raise it to Envato as the time is running and no decision was made there. So, could response there as you agree to make the refund? Best.

Is it possible to have the same filter on different pages?

Hello miguel84

Thank you for your interest in Filter Everything PRO.

Yes, sure. You can direct Filter Set on multiple pages and to filter on all them with the same Filters widget.

Thank you. Regards.

How? On “Where to filter?” setting I choose pages, then I must select a specific page from dropdown. How to select several pages?

Hello miguel84

For the moment there is ability to select only one specific page or all singular pages if you mean Pages (not archive pages like category, tag, author etc)

The last option to direct Filter Set on all singular pages will be available in the next plugin version, which will be released on next Monday or Tuesday. As option I’ve sent you intermediary plugin version that supports this feature just via PM now.

You can point your Filter Set on all singular pages, but for example with Widget logic plugin (or even custom code) to display Filters widget on desired pages and hide it on all other pages.

But please, pay attention that Posts loop on all such pages should be exactly the same to be available for filtering by the same Filter Set. Different Post loops require different Filter Sets.

Thank you. Regards.

Hello,

Thank you for your previous assistance. Here is another question. I have spotted that the filter does not recognize all categories of the posts located on a certain page and when a category is checked it does not filter properly. I tried using different post queries but still no change. Here is a link to such page https://digitalalliance.bg/en/inspiration/training1-good-practices/ Regards, Stefan

Hello Stefan

Thank you for your credentials.

I’ve checked the page, but I can not understand what you expect from filters when you do not display your posts on that page https://digitalalliance.bg/en/inspiration/training1-good-practices/

Because if you expected to see posts after selection a filter term you have to know, that filtering does not add new posts on a page. It only narrows existing posts list by filters criteria. In other words you have to display your posts grid first before start to filter them. As I do not see any posts on the page, it means that there is nothing to filter. Please, display your posts first.

Thank you. Regards.

Hi there Well the posts are there just under different tabs, or the filter and post grid have to be in the same container in order for the filter to get them? Regards

Hi Sterasoft-new

Thank you for your advice. Finally I have found tabs and post grids inside them. It is not so obvious to understand that there are tabls.

I have to say few moments:

1. You have several post grids on the page and I’m not sure what exactly post grid you want to filter. But if you want to filter all post grids in all tabs you have to create appropriate number of Filter Sets for them. One Filter Set per one posts grid and every Filter Set have to use different value of the “And what to filter?” field. In other words they have to use different WP_Queries related wich each post grid.

2. Please, do not try to enable AJAX, until you setup and ensure that Filters widget works and filter desired post grid.

You also sent us link to another page, we disabled there AJAX and filtering became to work. To configure AJAX correctly, please read this short article – https://filtereverything.pro/resources/plugin-settings/#ajax

Thank you. Regards.

I want to know if the pro plugin supports a price filter for a custom Repeater field, it’s a Repeater ACF filed with two filed max and min price please see attached screenshot https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1jGnLyLDmRwOW9SjeJK2s5pfR9tT-LVPu?usp=share_link

Hello bansarilakhatariya

Thank you for your interest in Filter Everything PRO.

You can create separate individual filters for every repeater sub-field but this is not very convenient and does not make a big sense.

In general in this case it would be better to create additional Custom Field and store there Max and Min values as it is implemented for example for Price in WooCommerce. In this case you will be able easy to create numeric filter by this field and filter posts by Max and Min values.

Thank you. Regards.

i have tried to activate plugin but it always said “Invalid license key. Please enter correct license key.” and here is my site “https://popkanmai.com/”

Hello bryanflowers

Thank you for purchasing the plugin.

As I see it from my side for the moment you have activated the license. If not, please let me know.

Thank you. Regards.

Is there a release date for search?

Hello aaronbrimacombe

The next plugin version with the search field will be released on this or next week.

Regards.

Hello aaronbrimacombe

I’m glad to inform you that built-in Search Field compatible with filters, AJAX and that allows you to search Woo products by SKU was added to the latest plugin version 1.7.8. You can update it automatically if you have activated your License key or download zip here on CodeCanyon.

Thank you. Regards.

I recently acquired the Filter Everything PRO and I was wondering if there is a way to disable the filter from displaying in the Parent category?

Example

Cars > Mercedes

I only want it to show in Mercedes not cars category.

Thanks.

Hello BashsMusic

Thank you for choosing Filter Everything PRO.

In general you have several potential ways to achieve that:

1. To direct Filter Set to the sub-category only (if it is one category). You can do it in Filter Set -> “Where to filter?” field and set it “Categories -> Mercedes”

2. If you want to hide Filters on every parent category, you can just hide Filters widget or even whole widget area if you need on such categories. This can be achieved for example with plugin like “Widget logic” or small custom coding. I can’t provide you with such code example as it is somethibng out from the plugin support scope, but it is not so complex and you can ask any WordPress developer to help you.

Thahk you. Regards.

There was discussion in Bricks builder FB group that there is new version of plugin with better bricks support? May I get that version?

Im currently having problem with Bricks WC shop layout, filters shows up and works, but products doesnt change.

I updated to new version, yet its not working.

Filters are visible but when I try to select any of them nothing updates with or without ajax.

Bricks built in filters works fine.

Here are my settings: https://i.imgur.com/ih2AEQB.png

Okay, I got it working. It was probably wrongly selected query loop and object cache.

Hello Oliomedia

Thank you for the report. I’m glad that now it works for you.

Regards.

I just purchased this plugin and it doesn’t work at all. I don’t know if it’s because I’m using WPBakery or what is happening.

I have a content page that was built using WPBakery that displays products of a parent category using a WC element. I created a filter set of the child categories of that parent to display on the page; however, the products don’t filter when a child category is selected. The page reloads, but all of the products remain.

Hello samuelldrew

Thank you for choosing Filter Everything PRO.

Such behaviour is popular issue when you configured filters wrong. 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.

Thank you. Regards.

Hello,

My website is working with WPML (French English Italian) and Filter Everything. I have two issues :

1) The filters are partially translated : I mean, in terms of titles it’s okay, as I have created Filter Sets in two other languages and they show properly. But the fields themselves remain on the default language (French) and they are not translated in the other languages when I switch language… I use the same name of Custom Fields for each language.

2) The filters simply don’t work, even on the default language : when I click on checkboxes or price sliders, the filter doesn’t work and continues displaying all the items without filtering them. And it’s the same for all languages.

Please can you help me solve these problems?

Thank you very much :)

Fedo

Hello artvisiondigitalagency

Thank you for choosing Filter Everything PRO.

In general Filter Everything just collect all possible values from a Custom Field specified in a filter. So if you posts conatin all these values in different languages, by default all them will be visible in the filter.

But when you open your French or Italian page and you have set “Empty terms – Always hide” in the Filter Set, you should see only terms related to posts in current language only (because if you have correct values in your custom field, they should not contain French values in Italian posts)

In this case if you don’t use different meta keys for your languages, please set “Empty terms -> Always hide” and check your filters. Also I recommend you to reset filters cache by adding to the URL of your site parameter “reset_filters_cache”. For example https://example.com/?reset_filters_cache=true this allows you to make sure that you see fresh list with last edited custom field values.

Please, let me know if it was helpful for you.

Thank you. Regards.

Okay

does the filter display the value or the label? Because for translation purposes, I have to put the value in French and the Label in English to make the dynamic displays possible in multilingual pages…

Example :

voiture: Car

“voiture” is the value, “Car” is the label

Thank you

Hello artvisiondigitalagency

Sorry for the late response.

If you use ACF for your custom fields by default Filter Everything displays their values.

If you need to display labels instead of values, you can add to the functions.php of your active theme appropriate code from examples below. You also have to edit this code in accordance with your ACF field meta key(s). Below are these codes:
1. ACF field is Taxonomy object – https://gist.github.com/wpserve/0634299bcc67d03bef77119dd20c86e7
2. ACF field is field with choices – https://gist.github.com/wpserve/48277fc0320239d05b1d6e2c4da3db20
3. ACF field is post object – https://gist.github.com/wpserve/a9a58cb8a37be1472ded53296147cc56

Also you always can display whatever you want using filter Term Name hooks – https://filtereverything.pro/resources/hooks/#term-name-hooks and ACF functions that allow you to receive field values by its meta key.

Thank you. Regards.

Hello! We have another issue:

If in the woocommerce settings you select the display of products, for example, by the number of sales https://scrshot.promo-theme.com/rTNtk6G2 , then the “Filter Everything – Sorting” widget (sorting is made on its basis) stops sorting by rating, by sales, etc.

Hello ypromo

Thank you for the report.

I have already added this issue to the bugtracker and I will notify you here when the issue will be checked and fixed.

Thank yuo. Regards.
