Hi, We’re using Filter Everything Pro on a Divi site. The Ajax setting doesn’t work. When we change the filter selection, the Posts disappear from the Posts container (it’s empty) the filter results only display if the page is refreshed. Do you know how we can get it to work properly without refreshing the page? Many thanks. The filter works OK without the AJAX turned on but we don’t want to see the page update each time the selection/filter is modified.
Hi Lanx,
You can read about the AJAX issue here and how you can fix it – https://filtereverything.pro/resources/ajax-related-problems/ this is not the plugin issue this is the issue that events on elements are need to reattached after the page is updated with AJAX.

Hey Victor, thanks you, but unfortunately your reply re Ajax hasn’t helped me. I thought this plugin was compatible with the Divi builder? The Ajax doesn’t work with the basic Divi posts element. I have not needed this type of work around for any other Ajax functionality before, and I’m not sure how to develop your plugin to work with Divi. Any help will be really appreciated. Many thanks!
Hello, sorry to bother you, but if we can’t find a way to make this work, we will have to swap out the plugin. Thanks again!
Hi Lanx,
Unfortunately, this is how the AJAX works, this is not a compatibility question. The other solutions will give the same results after the elements are updated with AJAX. Because when you remove an element and then replace it with AJAX (update elements), it loses any event bindings that were added to it on page load.
Best Regards,

Thanks Victor. I understand what you are saying, but we have other filtering tools (3rd party) that use Ajax without us needing to code part of the plugin. The issue is, one of them is no longer actively developed, and we have already purchased this one as it said Ajax and Divi compatible. What is the code to make it work with Divi posts? Many thanks
By the way, are you using infinite scrolling on the page?
Best Regards,

Hi Victor, there is no infinite scrolling. Many thanks.
Can you please send the credentials to the wp-admin dashboard following this document so we can check it?

Hi Victor, I just sent all of the info after following the instructions. Email will come from lanx@lanxworld.com many thanks for your help!
Hi Lanx,
We have checked the site and the issue is in the grid display, not sure why but it is creating some sort of wrapper around elements with JS code, so we just turned it off and applied a bit of custom CSS style and everything looks good as new without additional code layer. You can check it in the blog element custom CSS. But you can apply those styles like global or in any other way to load them faster.
Best Regards,
- Victor
Thanks so much Victor. That’s fantastic! I created some extra CSS and everything is now working great! Many thanks!
Hi Lanx,
We are glad to hear that everything is working well.

Unfortunately, when I activate the Royal Elementor addon’s mega menu, filter everything stops working, is there a solution?
However, I tried to add another set of filters in addition to the Rollers one, I added the one for brushes, but neither the old set of existing brush filters, nor the new one created this morning, appear when I view the brushes category. https://ferrarigroup.it/categoria-prodotti/pennelli/ In the new set of filters I changed the name of the fields for safety and I filled in a couple of products (code Y1105 and Y1110) but they don’t appear, what am I doing wrong in the filters?Hi maxistudio,
We haven’t tested it with the Royal Elementor addon’s mega menu, as we simply do not have it on our hands, we could check it, but we do not have full access to your dashboard, only temporary limited access, so we cannot even check it.
More likely they are not compatible with each other if the Filter Everything stops working after it is turned on.

The price field scroll bar doesn’t work, and we can’t filter by price either.
Hi finetechnology,
Thank you for choosing Filter Everything PRO.
Here is the setup of the price range slider filter – https://prnt.sc/U8xRkxcFsjB-
If you are using any custom field you need to have a numeric custom field and create it by the meta key of your numeric custom field.
Also can be the issue that you simply choose not correct wuery in the filter set setting in the “And what to filter” so it simply does not get the price data. Change another one and hit update then check if everything is okay.

Hello. Can we insert the filter name in the tag of the h1 header. Example: Chairs page if no seo rule is set for the “size” or “color” attribute
Output:
Chairs Size: 22cm, 25cm and others
Or:Chairs Size: 22cm, 25cm and others Color: Red, Green
//українською
Привіт. Чи можемо ми вставити назву фільтра в тег заголовка h1. Наприклад: Сторінка “Крісла” якщо не задано сео правило для атрибуту “розмір” чи “колір”
Вивід:
Крісла Розмір: 22см,25см та інші
Або:Крісла Розмір: 22см,25см та інші Колір: Червоний, Зелений
Hi spacetheme,
Вітаю!
Thank you for choosing Filter Everything PRO.
The thing is, you have a default H1 title and you can write whatever you want in it. If you create an SEO rule for “any color” and “any size”, when you select any single color term and size term from the filter, the SEO rule will work and change the H1 to match the SEO rule data.
This is how it is working. If you want to place the selected filter term names in the H1 you would need to create a custom code, which will basically check the exact selected filter terms and modify the H1 with the needed data.
The needed functions for it can be found here – https://filtereverything.pro/resources/functions/
Also, you might require some hooks just in case you can find them here – https://filtereverything.pro/resources/hooks/
Best Regards,
- Victor
How can I display the selected term without seo rules. Please give a hint.
Hi spacetheme,
Well, in the link that we previously sent you there is a function flrt_selected_filter_terms:
Selected Filters Terms Note: this function works correctly only if it fires after the Main WP_Query. It means after hook ‘pre_get_posts’ fired.
/** * @return array|false all selected filters or false */ flrt_selected_filter_terms();
You can use it to have an array of selected terms, and then use the title hook and write a code with conditions depending on which terms are selected to modify your H1.

Hi. I am testing the free version and I don’t see how I can start the checkbox hierarchy with collapses for categories with sub-categories. Is there any setting to do so?
Hi chemtu,
As long as you are using the Free version, please post your requests on the WordPress support forum – https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/filter-everything/. All support for the Free version goes there, here is strictly support for the PRO version.
Best Regards,
- Victor
Hello, The Free version ot the plugin works in my site with Elementor using params after ’?’ in URLs for search queries. After buy PRO version, all search queires are SEO friendly now. Is it possible works only with params ’?’ in URLs without “friendly URLs” like the free version?
Best regards.
Hi jruizcantero,
Thank you for choosing Filter Everything PRO.
If you want the same GET URL structure as it is in the Free version you can place this code in the currently active theme functions.php file:
define( 'FLRT_PERMALINKS_ENABLED', false );

Hi, My car listing directory has this model Zeekr 001. The URL for this car is: https://firstev.de/elektroauto/hersteller-Zeekr/modell-001/
But the filter has a problem with it. Can you help me solve this problem?
Thank you in advance! Waldemar
Hi LastSamuraj,
In general, it is better to create a value : label, when you are using data like 001, 01, 0001 … etc. better, make it as we provided in this example – https://codecanyon.net/comments/30063709
Create it like this, and use the code from the example:
1 : 001 2 : 01 3 : 0001
Best Regards,
- Victor
Thank you, you wrote in the linked post:
“Instead of showing values in the filter widget (1, 2, 3…) use this code with your custom field meta key:”
Where is the custom field meta key?
Where can I paste your code? 
We forgot to clarify if you are using custom fields or product attributes for the “MODELL” filter?
Best Regards,
- Victor
I use ACF Plugin
Perfect, so you need to add the code example in the functions.php file of your current theme. Use the meta key of your custom field in the code right below the comment in this area:
//write needed meta keys here
$meta_keys = array('your_meta_key_goes_here', 'your_second_meta_key', 'third_meta_key');
This is the custom field meta key – https://prnt.sc/CPAkeRAAfE31 and where you can find it in your ACF field.

Thank you. It´s working now !
When I activate the filter everything plugin, if I try to view any woocommerce product category, the page no longer shows any products, the links of any category stop working. Can you solve this problem?
Hi maxistudio,
Can you provide full admin access to the dashboard following this document so we can check if it is an issue with the plugin or any other conflict issue?
If you remove some access to the plugins and to the theme file editor, more likely we cannot help as it’s impossible to debug and find the issue without following access.
But first thing first, make sure that you are using a PHP version not higher than 8.1 as other plugins won’t work correctly. Second is that you are using slugs in the URL prefix exactly the same as you did for your categories, but they should be unique or else you will get a 404 error if those slugs are the same.

Dear Victor,
After concluding FilterEverything does not work on default Wordpress archives (only categories), and seeing bugs in the software, we requested a refund, which you rejected. We therefore filed a dispute with Envato, but no matter the outcome we want to remove the FilterEverything plugin from our website.
However, when we try to remove it, no matter in which order FilterEverything first or FilterEverything Pro first, the FilterEverything Pro deleting does not work.
The deletion process keeps running forever, without success.
We have 22 years of experience with web development and 16 years with Wordpress, but we haven’t seen this before. Our website is a clean install with only the ACF plugin installed, so this can not be a conflict between plugins. We also made sure to delete all filters/facets and filter sets, even from the trash, before starting the deletion of the plugin.
We will delete the plugin via the database and files. We just wanted to let you know because you may want to look into this, it may be an issue that needs to be addressed for future releases.
Many thanks, Terry
Hello Terry.
Thank you for your report and for choosing and a civilized way to resolve the dispute. CodeCanyon’s modrator will make final and most fair decision.
Thank you.

hello, please I just wanna know if “FILTER EVERYTHING” is compatible avec this template: http://preview.themeforest.net/item/photography-full-screen-photography-portfolio-photo-story-blog-shop-for-creative-professionals/full_screen_preview/11413730? _ga=2.240895424.254789838.1695201803-385665569.1690701548 Thank youu
Hi TidMed,
Thank you for your interest in the Filter Everything plugin.
Not sure what exactly you mean by “is compatible avec this template” We do not have access to this template so we cannot provide a 100% answer. But we have the free version of the plugin so you can test it if it is working correctly for this template and your case.
Best Regards,

Hi, Thanks for your reply, i explain to you in details: we want to use the plugin “Filter Everything” in a wordpress template but i’m not sur if the plugin will work correctly with the website template and all its functionalities will be ok or no, knowing that i didn’t purchase yet the website template and also your plugin, so according to your experience i want to know first if this filter has no functionality problem with any wordpress template in order to be able to proceed in may purchase (the wordpress template and filter plugin)?? With thanks
Hi TidMed,
Based on our experience, we are confident that it should be compatible without using AJAX. However, if AJAX is used and the template has jQuery events attached to certain elements, it may require reattachment of those events after the page is updated with AJAX. You can find more information about this issue at https://filtereverything.pro/resources/ajax-related-problems/
Best Regards,

Hello, please when I asked you before about a compatibility with a template that I mentionned before, you told me that I can use a free version of the plugin so I can test it if it is working correctly for my template. But I couldn’t find the free version. how can I use it please ? Thank youu
Hi TidMed
You can find it with the search in WordPress plugins – https://prnt.sc/bLZP_HmAgX-w and install it from there.

Hi, some how when i filter posts on mobile in the popup widget no post appear. Can you help me with this issue?
Hi gerritkarafiat,
Thank you for choosing Filter Everything PRO.
Please send the link to the page with the issue so we can check it.
Best Regards,
- Victor
Did you apply some type of events on those posts that they are appearing like a slide from left to right? Because they are not appearing right away they use some type of event or JS code.
Best Regards,
- Victor
No. It is simply the front page / blog with a masonry grid.
Can you please send the credentials to the wp-admin dashboard following this document so we can check it?
Best Regards,
- Victor
I have sent you the credentials to the wp-admin dashboard. Looking forward to see the plugin fully functioning.
Thanks,
Best Regards, Gerrit
Hi Gerrit,
We have checked the site and turned off the “Display posts in masonry grid” and “infinite scrolling” and everything is working correctly. Unfortunately, the infinite scrolling the one that you are using is not compatible with our plugin, as well as the “masonry grid” after the AJAX update.
Best Regards,

Thank you so much for your help. Works like a charm!
Filtering, but then no items show up… Here is a 2 min video explaining…https://www.loom.com/share/c65f6d747cf44e4c95d7709e508074bb?sid=17eb4d2f-ff89-4411-bd1d-eb0109ca5f83
Hi Mark,
Thank you for the detailed explanation of the issue. The issue is in the labels of those options, when you are using labels like ”$2M – $5M” it is better to use the “value : label” just like this:
1 : Under $2M
2 : 2M – $5M
3 : $5M – $10M
4 : $10M – $20M
5 : Over $20M
Instead of showing values in the filter widget (1, 2, 3…) use this code with your custom field meta key:
add_filter('wpc_filter_post_meta_term_name', 'wpc_acf_labels_instead_of_values', 20, 2);
function wpc_acf_labels_instead_of_values($term_name, $meta_key)
{
//write needed meta keys here
$meta_keys = array('your_meta_key_goes_here', 'your_second_meta_key', 'third_meta_key');
if (in_array($meta_key, $meta_keys)) {
if (function_exists('acf_get_field')) {
$field = acf_get_field($meta_key);
if ($field) {
$field_key = $field['key'];
$new_choices = [];
if (isset($field['choices']) && !empty($field['choices'])) {
foreach ($field['choices'] as $key => $value) {
$new_key = mb_strtolower($key);
$new_choices[$new_key] = $value;
}
$term_name_test = mb_strtolower($term_name);
if (isset($new_choices[$term_name_test])) {
$term_name = $new_choices[$term_name_test];
}
}
}
}
}
return $term_name;
}
Then hit update in the filter set and everything should work nicely.
We would recommend creating a new custom field with a unique meta key so it won’t provide any issue as ACF does not delete or change anything in the DB.
Best Regards,
- Victor
Thanks Victor. As for the code snippet, where do I add that? I’m not seeing the ability to add it in my filter. Thanks
Hi Mark,
You need to add it to the functions.php file of your active theme.
Best Regards,
- Victor
I have to put custom code in my theme source code for the plugin to work? This is frustrating. I’ll pass.
Hi Mark,
No, the plugin is functioning correctly.
However, it’s important to note that entering the format $456 – %34534 or any other similar format in the ACF field may cause unexpected behavior. This is why ACF provides a “Value : Label” functionality to prevent incorrect data and ensure proper functionality.
To display the labels instead of the values, you can add a code snippet to your functions.php file. Or use any plugin for code snippets.
Alternatively, you can contact the support team of your theme to determine if this is a normal practice.
More about functions.php file you can be read here on the official site – https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/basics/theme-functions/

Hello,
I am using the plugin on a ACF pro numeric field. But when selecting “show on widget” the range filter is grayed out.
Any idea how to fix?
Hi GuidoBlattmann,
Thank you for choosing Filter Everything PRO.
There can be two reasons:
1) The wrong query in the filter set settings in the “And what to filter” chose another one hit update, and check if everything is showing.
2) Or an issue with the ACF field, so for the test create a new ACF numeric field apply it to two of your posts with different values (so you can see the range), and create a new filter by the field meta key.
Best Regards,
- Victor
I can’t understand it! Any explanation?
Hi turisbike,
Hard to say, seems like you didn’t translate the brands with WPML or any other issue with the EN filter set, check the settings perhaps it has the wrong configuration with filters. Send the screenshots of the EN filter set settings and filters. Also, send the screenshot if you translate those brands into both languages.
Best Regards,
- Victor
You should use the WordPress editor while adding new translations, not the WPML editor.
Best Regards,
- Victor
I’m sorry, but I don’t understand! How can I do this and where? Because I use WPML with all the other plugins and I do it the same way. Can you explain a bit more how to do it? Thank you.
Right in the filter set settings here – https://prnt.sc/gGS0-dHU5s7r

Hello,
I am trying to use your plugin on my simple loop, my posts show but there is no affect on them when using your filter. I have an ACF field named “sf” that I want to filter. Where do I add “sf” in my code so your filter will filter it properly? Thanks!
<?php $args = array( ‘post_type’ => ‘listing’, ); $the_query = new WP_Query( $args ); ?> <?php if ( $the_query->have_posts() ) : ?> <?php while ( $the_query->have_posts() ) : $the_query->the_post(); ?> <?php if ( get_the_post_thumbnail() ) : /* Show the featured image if there is one */ ?> <?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?> <?php endif; ?><?php the_title(); ?>
<?php the_field('sf'); ?>
<?php the_content(); ?> <?php endwhile; ?> <?php wp_reset_postdata(); ?> <?php endif; ?>Hi StainOnRug,
Unfortunately, we do not debug custom codes and do not provide them, following the support policy here on CodeCanyon.
In general, you should apply a custom field to your post type, and then edit the post to add the needed data to your custom field. Then on the archive page or any other page that uses WP_Query to display your posts, place the filter set with the filter created by the “Custom Field” using the meta key of the field that you created.
Best Regards,

Hi Victor, I can’t reply to my previous question about the page layout being disrupted, so I make a new one. You said is was a theme/css problem, and I understand you see it that way, but it happens just after checking a checkbox. Please try on this URL. You’ll see the layout is OK and when you press the “Breedte kop” chechbox (16) the layout gets messed up. It’s still the same page.
https://www.pizzastore.nl/product-categorie/pizzascheppenborstels/ovenborstels/vuurvast_fltr-ja/Hi consiglio,
This is your style before selecting anything – https://prnt.sc/1k_t2ZFN0OQG
This is when you select something – https://prnt.sc/13HPkDM055q1
As you see all styles are from bricks CSS not from the plugin and why are they changing after selecting also responsible on bricks, also, as can be seen, the sidebar and template were created not correctly. The sidebar should always have a fixed width to prevent such behavior.
Best Regards,
- Victor
Thanks Victor, I will talk to Bricks about this, cause my sidebar has a fixed width (250 px) so I think there is a mismatch between GUI en CSS.
It seems like you already implemented some CSS changes as it is working in a bit different way.

Hi Victor,
My site is in 2 languages, the filter works perfectly in English but in French it is showing products from categories that were not added to the filter. In this url you can see the problem https://starlightcorp.co/fr/machinerie-usagee/ Only used machines should be seen. Products from categories such as Mèches 1 Flûte, Station de serrage, Clés, Outillage, etc. should not be seenHow could I solve it?
Thanks
Hi starlightcorp,
In that case, just remove the unneeded filters from the French or English language. Each language should have its own filter set where you can place the needed filters.
Best Regards,
- Victor
This is how I have it configured, each language has its filter with the categories in each language that should be displayed.
Can you please send the credentials to the wp-admin dashboard following this document so we can check it?
Best Regards,
- Victor
Hello Victor,
Credentials sent
Thanks
Hi starlightcorp,
We have checked the site and the problem is actually not related to our plugin, as our plugin is not responsible for which products are displayed in some categories, it can only filter presented products not add some more from other categories.
Go here to this product – https://starlightcorp.co/fr/outillage/meches/meches-1-flute/meche-une-flute-au-carbure-fini-miroir-12x35-70x100x12mm-revetement-dlc/ and clie edit it and try to change the category to which it belongs or remove all of the categories and update it if it will work. It gives us errors in the console, more likely it is connected.

Hello just installed in wordpress I am using the Divi theme which is up-to-date My filter page shows but only works when I dont enable ajax. When I enable Ajax the filter sorts but the items disappear. If i inspect the page I see them there but I cant see them on the screen. I made sure to name the ID for the posts #primary I figured I wouldnt need any fancy Ajax code since your plugin says it was tested to work with Divi. Thanks!
Hi StainOnRug,
Yes, it is working with Divi, but if you attached some events on your posts, for example, they all are invisible and appear in 3sec or any other stuff, they won’t work after the page was updated with AJAX as you need to reattach those events using “ready” trigger. More about it you can read here – https://filtereverything.pro/resources/ajax-related-problems/
This has nothing to do with the compatibility, this is simply how AJAX works, any plugin that will update your page with AJAX will have the same results, that’s why you need tup put the applied events functions on the ready trigger. Or contact Divi support (if those are the events by default) and ask in which way you can reattach those events after the page was updated with AJAX, so they won’t disappear.

Hello,
I have an issue while adding my license key. I get the message ‘Unknown error.’ Could you please advise how to resolve it? ( I am sure I entered the correct key, which is not used on other websites).
Moreover, not sure if this is linked to the above issue, but when filter everything plugin is activated, all the WP administration is getting slow. But when I desactivate your plugin, admin works fast. Any idea?
Thanks a lot and regards!
Hi Swylean,
Thank you for choosing Filter Everything PRO.
It seems that your server does not allow connection with our license server. We can activate it on our side, but we need the following things from you:

Used with elementor on an archive page the search produces an infinite ajax wait spinner. Though one can see the correct results of filtering already, you can not click the results because the search does not come to an end.
