Hello, I am interested in purchasing the Pro version, however I have a couple questions. First, is there a way to add the sorting element into the same mobile popup as the rest of the filters? Second, I cannot find the “Hide empty Filters” option in the free version. Does that option only appear in the paid version? Third, have you ever tested this with the Flatsome theme? Please let me know. Thanks
Hi cdshubert
Thank you for your interest in the Filter Everything plugin.
1) Technically sorting widget and filter widget are two separate widgets. Sorting widdget needs to be created in the widget area, of course, you can display it with a shortcode, but creating it and setting it up only in the widget area. You can place the sorting widget shortcode on the hook to display in the pop-up menu but this is not recommended.
2) Yes, the PRO version has this option.
3) We haven’t tested it by ourselves, but a lot of our customers are using that theme, so there should be no issues.

Hi nikste
Thank you for choosing Filter Everything PRO.
If you have a category page which is showing other categories and products, you will see the filter items for those categories as well, as under the hood it is just using a template to show categories about product selection is working, and it will show available filter terms for all of the products available in all of them. You can display only products and you will have only displayed filter terms that are available for those products inside the certain category.
Also, can you please send the working link to the page, as this one that you sent cannot be opened, and not even sure why it is that long. We are sure that we can make it work on your site correctly.

It shows me this message in my template settings from the admin panel when I go to the product categories page:
No one Filter Set is related to this page. You can configure it in the Filter Set -> “Where to filter?” field.
But from the settings in the field “Apply filtering if the page is:” I have selected “Product Categories” and then I have selected Sample Category. In the Sample category, which is linked to other categories, absolutely nothing is displayed on my site.
And one question: in order to display the filters, is it necessary to see the sidebar from the template settings. Does displaying the filters depend on the site sidebar being visible?

As to the second question, if you place the filter widget shortcode on the page, you don’t need to have a widget area on the page.
But if you are using a widget area to place a filter widget on the page, then yes.

Great plug-in overall! I bought the plugin for the SEO Filters, and it seems to be conflicting with Permalink Manager Pro.
I modified the permalink structure of the product categories, product attributes and the product with Permalink Manager Pro (which I use for all my projects). But the SEO Filter pages do not seem to be working well with Permalink Manager Pro, I only get 404 pages when opening the created SEO Filter pages.
I tried saving the permalink page again, and regenerated all the permalinks with PMP as well, without success.
When disabling PMP, and using Premmerce Permalinks (which does the approximately the same) it does work properly. But I do have a preference for PMP and would prefer continuing using this instead of Premmerce. In addition I have developer’s licence for PMP.
Do you have any workaround for this problem?
Thanks in advance!
Hi impleodesigns
Thank you for choosing Filter Everything PRO.
Yes, it conflicts with Permalink Manager Pro, as our plugin has our own Permalink Manager to create user-friendly URLs. You can turn it off if you place it in the functions.php file, perhaps turning it off might help:
define( 'FLRT_PERMALINKS_ENABLED', false );
All the links will turn into GET parameters. But our plugin filtering relies on the filtering URL particles that are added to the address so it’s a 50/50

Unfortunately this breaks all my URL’s, but thanks for your reply!
Hi, I like many features of the plugin, but I am having a few issues with it, especially in terms of permalink structure.
1. Like mentioned before, it is not compatible with Permalink Manager Pro, which I am using to rewrite the structures of the product attribute archives. As soon as I have Permalink Manager Pro active I get all kind of 404’s, even while filtering (so not only with the SEO Rules).
2. My customer uses his product attributes as archives. He sells wine, has the attribute ‘country’. The archive page is ‘domein.com/wine/country/france’ for example. When being on the page ‘domein.com/wine/’ and filtering the country with France, the url becomes ‘domein.com/wine/country-france/’. The attribute archive page contains many custom fields to display content underneath the product loop, so basically now I have duplicate pages and this is bad.
3. Filtering by category also adds a prefix, and here again it duplicates content which is armful for SEO.
Do you have a viable solution for any of the above?
Thanks in advance.
Hi impleomedia
1) Yes and most likely it won’t be compatible with it as filtering fully rely on the URLs particles.
2) It is adding URL prefixes in order to remove conflicts, in short, if there will be the same URL as Woo has which plugin should display what? Is it Woo or are we just filtering the page? Which plugin should work and display the content? that’s why there are URL prefixes. And if you choose a couple of countries from the filter you will get ‘domein.com/wine/country-france-or-italy-or-spain/’.
3) By default, filtered pages are not indexed.

I’d like to remove the dashes on either side of the filter term in the default option for dropdown selectors. For example, I want – Select Industry – to just be Select Industry. I read your reply on this topic from a year ago and have created a /filters folder in my theme folder and copied the dropdown.php file to the /filters folder. The problem I’m having is figuring out what line of code to modify. Can you let me know what I should modify in the dropdown.php file to eliminate the dashes?
<?php
echo esc_html( flrt_dropdown_default_option( $filter ) );
?>
Hi aaronbiby
you can use this code placing it in thew functions.php file to modify it wia hook
// Define a custom function to modify the default option text
function custom_dropdown_default_option($default_option, $filter) {
// Modify the default option text as needed if leave on %s will be pure name like Color/Size and etc
$modified_default_option = sprintf(__('My custom text: %s', 'filter-everything'), $filter['label']);
return $modified_default_option;
}
// Hook the custom function to the 'wpc_dropdown_default_option' filter
add_filter('wpc_dropdown_default_option', 'custom_dropdown_default_option', 10, 2);

That worked beautifully. Thank you.
Hello, I encountered an issue when using a filter on a mobile device. After clicking the filter icon, a pop-up widget appears. Then, when I select one of the options (radio buttons), the pop-up widget automatically closes, and the filtering process begins. However, I noticed that the filtering is successful, but the gray background generated by the pop-up widget still overlays the page, requiring an additional click to make it disappear. How can I resolve this issue?
Hi jacob25621
Thank you for choosing Filter Everything PRO.
Sounds like an incorrect container class or ID for the AJAX update. Can you send the link to the page with the issue so we can check it?

Hello, Is there any way to make both a step-by-step filter and a general filter of a product category at the same time as done on this site: https://vencon.ua/ua/catalog/kondicionery-split-sistemy
Hi Igor_Shyshka
In theory yes, you just need to create two filter sets and place them both on the same page. One will be set up like a step-by-step filter and the second one will be the usual one. But if you will use the same filters they will work together.

Hi, Two questions:
1) I’m using FILTER EVERYTHING on the WP Twenty Twenty-Three Theme. I’m just wondering if this plugin works with the block editor.
2) On the pro price, is that a one-time fee, or a monthly/yearly fee?
Thanks, Kevin
Hi Kevin
Thank you for your interest in the Filter Everything plugin.
1) Can you please specify what exactly you mean by “if this plugin works with the block editor”? Do you mean edit the filter everything widget itself? Or what? Please note that in the 2023 theme, there is no widget area so you won’t have the ability to use the sorting widget by default, as it should be created in the widget area to be configured.
2) The license is lifetime for two sites, one for stage and another for prod.
Best Regards,
- Victor
Thanks, Victor 
I think you answered my question. I’ve tried a couple of plugins that do not function properly in the block editor (That’s what WP calls it: https://wordpress.org/documentation/article/wordpress-block-editor/), but they work fine in the classic editor. That’s all I was getting at. It doesn’t sound like Filter Everything has a “block” that is native to the block editor, so I assume it will only work as a shortcode? The shortcode does work, and the price is reasonable, so hopefully I can get it to do what I’m hoping for. Thanks again for the reply. I appreciate your time.
Yeah while editing the site you can place it as a shortcode and it will work correctly.

Hi,
I have created a separate login for you to look at the problem (just like you’ve asked)...but OBVIOUSLY this comes with a username and password which I cannot type here… how do I privately email or msg you with this information? The email I see in my nbox is only ”<do-not-reply@market.envato.com>.... what other method of contact is there?

Hello, thank you and I just sent it.
Hi dresseditfb
Thank you for the credentials, but all we see here is only this – https://prnt.sc/R0uMbWqGYJl- so we cannot check anything. We need full admin rights in order to check at least anything. Because right now we cannot even check FE settings.
Best Regards,
- Victor
Ok, please check now (I changed this now).
Hi dresseditfb
We checked the site. The first issue is that you shouldn’t set an alternate location unless you plan to create a redirect filter. Secondly, we set up with an Elementor ID on your product container and used it in the filter settings with “HTML id or class…” so that the content would be updated using AJAX. Third, we set the correct query in the “And what to filter” field. And now everything works.
Choose any filter term and hit apply and you will see it.

Where can I find the sorting widget ID? I did it exactly as in the documentation and inserted [fe_sort], but at this point I only get the wrong sort widget ID. Please provide the correct one.
Of course I created a widget but I don’t know where I can see the ID for this widget?
Where can I find out my valid sorting ID?
Hi maximiliankunze
Please check this page – https://filtereverything.pro/resources/shortcodes/#sorting-widget when you place only the sorting widget shortcode without the id and go to check that place it will show you helping tips on which id is for which sorting widget that you created in the widget area.
Best Regards,
- Victor
Hello, yes, I have already tried that, I have read the documentation carefully.
I just placed the shortcode [fe_sort] where I wanted it, but where do I see the ID now? I don’t understand it, sorry.
At this point I only see the following message in the frontend: Incorrect sorting widget ID. Please provide the correct one.
Can you please send the credentials to the wp-admin dashboard following this document so we can check it?
Best Regards,

Done
Hi maximiliankunze
We have checked the site and set the correct ID which is 3, you can check it via browser inspecting tools – https://prnt.sc/ZJeNHi87X1He
Weird that it didn’t show any options but maybe there is something on the site that is changing this logic.

Hello,
How do I arrange my fields ascending numerically? I know that the SORT TERMS BY setting should be the one, but for some odd reason, it just wont do it. Please see linked image. Any ideas? Thanks and I hope to hear back from you soon!
https://ibb.co/QJRPhfGHi cfish7
You can use manual sorting via code that you need to add to your functions.php file here is the solution with a description in this comment – https://codecanyon.net/comments/30116242

Any idea whats going on?
Hi cfish7
We have checked your site and this are some issues with the theme or some conflict with another plugin. We tested everything on our back and everything is working correctly without any duplications.
You can try to change the theme and see if it will fix it if not, then turn off all of the plugins and check for the result, if it fixed the situation or not. Then you can turn on plugins one by one to understand which one is causing this issue.

Hey!
I have the problem that I cannot select the filter for multiple pages at the same time.
If I select all pages then I get Filter What? no output displayed. Only if I select an exact page can I filter for What? choose something.
It would be easiest for me if I could determine the pages on which the filter should be visible because the filter is not needed on all pages.
My idea was to simply copy the filters and store them individually for each desired page, but unfortunately you cannot copy existing filters and it would be very time-consuming to create them all again individually.
Do you have an idea for this?
Hi maximiliankunze
Thank you for choosing Filter Everything PRO.
At the time there is no option to duplicate filter sets, but our dev team is very positive about adding such functionality with future updates.
With the show on all pages issue, if the pages will have different queries it won’t work, if all of the pages have the same query then it will work as it should.
At the time the one and only option is to create each filter set manually and set it on each category.
Best Regards,
- Victor
Okay, too bad, is there no way to copy it directly from the database? I need many hours to do this, I have over 50 pages that I have to build up again each time with a filter with 10 filter options
Currently no, if there was an easy way we would tell you right away. Unfortunately, it would require quite a lot of coding and testing to make it work. That’s why we cannot recommend anything, we apologize for any inconvenience it may cause.

I think there might be some kind of problem with the newest Wordpress version. We have filtering on our site but it suddenly stopped working with no reason. Filter shows count and everything correctly but the page query does not update. Maybe something new in WP_Query? I had this plugin on a test site also and it worked perfectly until I updated the newest WP.
Hi noorak2
Go to the filter set settings and change in the “And what to filter dropdown” query and hit update then check the workability.

Hello i buy your plugin in front of the site it is good but my back office admin wordpress is very very slow When i deactivate your plugin the backoffice is good and when i reactivate your plugin the backoffice is very slow i think is due at the licence ? but when i add my licence key i have this message error : “Unknown error.” i don’t understant ! Please help me rapidly to resolve it Thanks

Hi, I love your plugin, but have one special problem. When I click the dynamic “Load More” Button under the first results, it always loads the same results and not fitting to the filter selection. Example here:
https://www.brooot.de/rezeptsuche/_korn-emmer/This should show max. 9 entries, but shows more and on click the “Mehr laden” Button shows not 3 more entries in this selection, but other ones. How can this be solved?
Hi rezwiebel
Some load more or infinite scrolling pagination might not work correctly with the plugin. They do not take into account the filtered results and only show on clicking the default results as no filtering was applied.
Best Regards,

OK, how can I disable infinity scrolling pagination here? I cannot see an option.
Should be in the theme settings somewhere. You can send the credentials to the wp-admin dashboard following this document so we can check it for you.

Just send you the credentials. Backup is done.
Done, now everything is working as it should with a normal pagination.
Best Regards,

Great, where was this option? I did not find!
When you click to edit the page, there will be a container that shows all posts, you click to edit that container and you will see settings at the bottom there will be pagination options.

Ah great. Thanks. Super support!

Hi Victor,
sorry to bother you again, but it’s also something that I think doesn’t make sense, and is closely related to my request for tax terms being shown when filtering by keyword.
You have a function that would check if a page is a filtered page (`flrt_is_filter_request()`), so you can conditionally add code, change stuff etc. While that is working for filtering via taxonomy terms and with empty results from a text field search, if I do a text field search (and thus FILTER by the keyword) and get matching results (i.e. not empty), flrt_is_filter_request() is not returning as ‘true’, so my code for a filtered result is not working. Is this by design, or somehow also a missing piece? There is no extra function for ‘filtered with results from a text field’ that I could find.
Thanks in advance
Eno
Hi Eno
This function catches only the filter request, but does not respond to the search.
However, the search can be “defined” in another way – through the $_GET variable ‘srch’
For example, if it is there and it is not empty, then the search request is present.
Best Regards,
- Victor
Hiya Victor,
thanks again for getting back so quickly. From what you’re saying I conclude that the search field doesn’t officially count as a filter?
Thanks for the tip with the $_GET variable, that’s certainly usable, will have to try if it also works with the request being AJAXed. Would you consider including the text search field into your filtered function?
Best regards
Eno
Alas, it does work with AJAX, but following your logic of a text field search not being a filtered result, flrt_posts_found_quantity() won’t return any results for the number of posts found. I could circumvent it with a logic that counts the amount of found posts (as if a regular WP search). For the future, it would be gold to have the text search identified as a regular filter, so it would follow its logic, also with the ‘Show only on Initial Filter’ problem I was reporting earlier. Because at the moment, when combining filter and text search, empty tax terms also disappear (although this is after filtering by tax term, then search term on top of it) and are not greyed out.
Hi.
I love your plugin. But please take a look at this page; https://www.spatec.no/massasjebad-ny/. Some of the hottubs are for sale at a reduced price compared to indicative price. The price slider is now set to filter the full prices. I hope that it is possible to also include the campaign price somehow in the setup, so the slider also take into account the reduced prices in the entire price range.
Hope to hear from you soon

Hi, you should now have access.
We checked the site and found that you are using two custom fields. There is nothing you can do about it. What you can do is to change the actual price and use a different custom field that is displayed, for example, the previous price was 20k and the sale price (actual price) is 10k. This way you can get around this problem.

Ok, thanks. I’ll look into your solution.
Hi there, I am currently working on a website build with Elementor which is an affiliate site with tips for birthday presents and all kinds of present ideas. I have made a lot of product categories and landing pages for each category for instance presents for women -> womens clothing -> shirts. On the shirts page. I have a filter (Product Filter by WBW) where I have a price filter and that works fine if I put it on a product category page, but it does not work if I place it on a landing page where the product category has been added with the woo product gallery. I am placing product with woo product gallery on landing pages as I want to be able to write SEO text for each product category on each page. The filter (Product Filter by WBW) which I am currently using is implemented as a short code. So, my question is, with the PRO version of Filtereverything can I filter what I want on a landing page which is not a product-category page? Hope it makes sense.
Hi jobme
Thank you for your interest in the Filter Everything plugin.
We are not exactly sure what is “woo product gallery” are you using some other type of plugin for it, or it is some default one? In any case, it should use the WP_Query to be filterable. You can place from Elementor “Products” element and set it up to show items from the needed category, or loop grid.
The Free version cannot work on the singular page, only the PRO version can be placed on the singular pages.
Best Regards,
- Victor
Hi Victor, Woo product gallery is a part of the Essential Addons plugin. When you say the free version cannot work on a singular page, do you mean the free version of Elementor or filtereverything? Thanks
Hi jobme
The Free version of Filter Everything.

Hello, I am trying to re-create the filter I used to have (which is shown under the new Filter Everything filter). I’ve added the “Search Bar, Apparel, Brand” filters but why aren’t the products populating on the page?
This is the page with the re-create filter: https://mydressedit.com/sale/
Also, how do I add a “Price Range” feature and a “Sort By” feature?
Hi dresseditfb
Thank you for choosing Filter Everything PRO.
It looks like you have plased couple of filter sets on the page, one with “apply button” mode second one without it. So a bit confusing what exactly and how you want to recreate?

It looks like you have plased couple of filter sets on the page, one with “apply button” mode second one without it.
“So a bit confusing what exactly and how you want to recreate?”
I’ll explain:
Ok, so this page ( https://mydressedit.com/sale/ ) has the Filter Everything Pro filter at the top of the page on the left side, and a blank white screen on the right side.
Now, underneath the Filter Everything Pro filter and it’s blank white screen, there is an old filter (not the Filter Everything Pro filter, it is a completely different plugin) on the left side with a populated clothing list on the right side.
I am trying to get the new Filter Everything Pro filter to be the same as the old filter underneath it (same features) and also, why isn’t a clothing list populating next to the new Filter Everything Pro filter? – what part do you not understand?
Why isn’t your filter populating my product options?

Hello,
Why aren’t the Filter Tote Bag Brands populating the correct corresponding tote bags? What would be the HTML ID in this case? on this shop page: https://mydressedit.com/tote-bags/
Hi dresseditfb
As you see the filtering is not working on this page. Got to the filter set settings that is placed on this page, and in the “And what to filter” change the query to another one and hit update. Go back to the filtering page refresh it and see if it will filter the products.

Hi – I bought your Filter Plugin – installed it on Tiinas.com – and then uninstalled it – because I needed it on Pulsteknik.com instead. Now I am not able to Activate my PRO licence. I get Unknown error.
And – more importantly – I can not get the Filter to work. It showed on Tiinas.com when I tried it there. And I saw somewhere that I could PM you if I wanted more then one licence.
I just to be sure – this isn´t a yearly subscription… is it!?

The mobile shortcode is functional, but when attempting to display it on the desktop, the output is not satisfactory. It is unclear why the desktop shortcode stopped working. We also attempted to use the desktop shortcode on the shopping page, but it failed to display the desired result. Please investigate this matter to resolve the display issue. Thank you.

The issue is that the custom filter sidebar area on the right side of the page. What we did, is we added two filter sets on the page. One is in the title container but we hide it, and it is showing correctly on mobile, the second is the one that is working in that buggy desktop pop-up sidebar.
Everything is showing up on both desktop and mobile modes now.
