Guys, I would like to add a filter to previous searched results. I thought adding it trough a widget, but it wont appear. IS that the common error? Or am i doing something wrong. Should work this way right?

So here is how it is working:

1) You create a filter set and place it on the needed page with the “Where to filter” and it will be displayed there. If you create another filter set and place it on the same page, then you can use priority, in order to choose which filter set will be displayed first and which one will be displayed second.

If you want to display two filter sets on the same page, you need to use either two widgets or two shortcodes but not mixed.

So the filter set that is placed on the search page and the one that is placed on the category page are not connected at all.

2) You can use the shortcode [fe_open_button] specifically on the search page in the needed place in order to display the mobile button there.

Best Regards,

Victor, thanks. 1)Do i understand it right that, when using shortcode + widget. The priority setting wont work?

2)Is there another way then widgets to place the filter on searchresultpages?

1) We just tested it and it is working in all cases, even if you are mixing widgets and shortcodes.

2) Yes, you can use shortcodes – https://filtereverything.pro/resources/shortcodes/ you can find all of the shortcodes on this page. For example, you can check this search page template using hooks and place the shortcode on the needed hook.

Thanks for the super plugin. Questions and suggestions: - I have a numeric meta field. I need to filter by different ranges by clicking checkboxes. For example, each product has its own area value. I want to create a filter with ready ranges: up to 25, 25-35, 35-40, 40-55. I don’t need a slider for this. The filter should form “between” queries with many ranges. It wouldn’t hurt to add it in the next update. - Also, I would like to show the number of filtered products without brackets “)”. It would be nice to add a filter to the “flrt_filter_get_count” function in the wpc-helpers.php file (I have manually removed them from the code now, but they will reappear after the update). - Also, it would be convenient to choose different “Main queries” depending on the page. Because “Main query 1” suits me for the parent category, and “Main query 2” for the child categories.

Thanks again for the filter, it has helped solve a lot of problems.

Hi farma1342

Thank you for choosing Filter Everything PRO.

1) You can create this by creating another attribute with the needed terms like that and applying them to your products, so instead of the exact value, you will have 20-25, 26-30, 31-35…

2) You can use the templates overriding for this – https://filtereverything.pro/resources/templates-overriding/

3) This is only possible by creating multiple filter sets, so you can place on each category a unique filter set.

Hi I ran into a problem when using the sorting widget.

When the page is initially loaded, sorting works. But after selecting any of the filters or the sorting itself, it stops working (after an AJAX request). Disabling “Improved dropdowns” solves the problem, but I need styling.

You can test it here https://catfoodcentral.co/advanced-search-test/. This page uses custom styles.

Or here https://catfoodcentral.co/advanced-search-old-2/. Testing page without custom styles.

At the same time, on the main page on which the filters were installed for the first time, sorting works https://catfoodcentral.co/advanced-search/

Please advise.

Hey Victor, Thanks for the fast reply.

We checked. The errors you mentioned are not relevant. We are not seeing any errors in the console.

Please check this page https://catfoodcentral.co/advanced-search-old-2/ There is no customization applied to the filters here. There are no errors in the console. Sorting still does not work after an AJAX request.

On another page it works correctly https://catfoodcentral.co/advanced-search/.

The filter settings are the same on these two pages.

Unfortunately we need more help please since it’s working on one page while it’s not working on another page.

Currently we’re facing two major issues: 1. Filters dropdown – Open/Close behavior 2. Sorting widget is not showing as expected (while working on another page).

I will truly appreciate if you can assist us further as these are major blockers for us that prevents us from releasing this page.

With your permission I DM’d you through here as well.

Hi

I transferred the site from a subdomain to a new domain:

1- on the home page and in the store I have this message : ” There are no filters in the Filter Set yet. Please add them to the Filter Set related to this page. “

The filters exist, should I create new ones ?

2- how to reactivate the key for updates ?

Thanks

Hi Bluetreedigitaldz

1) In general, we do not have any information if any data were corrupted during this transfer. So we do not know what to suggest here, maybe simply going to the filter set and hitting the update button will fix it. Or you would need to delete them all and create a new one.

2) We assume you do not have the old domain anymore, and you didn’t go to the filters -> settings -> license tab to deactivate it there. So you can send the license key via PM – https://codecanyon.net/user/fe_support so we can deactivate it across all of the sites.

Hi team, just want to report that the 1.8.6 update has a few odd aspects. Before updating, then “Show Update Details” in WP goes to a blank page that says “Plugin Not Found”. A manual update after downloading the plugin shows the new 1.8.6 version correctly in the FEP panel, but WP keeps showing that an update is still needed. Only after clicking the “Update” button on the Plugins page does the update get processed with the “Update Available” notification going away.

Nothing here is super concerning, but I have not had this issue before, AFAIK, so wanted to report it.

Thx

Hi NetConfig

Thank you for bringing this to our attention, it seems to happen very rarely. We don’t know what it could be yet, but please keep us updated if this issue happens again.

I’m using the following code to display SEO Descriptions in a different part of the archive page:

add_action('wp', 'wpc_add_filters_seo_description'); function wpc_add_filters_seo_description(){ if( class_exists( 'FilterEverything\Filter\Container' ) ){ $seoFrontEnd = FilterEverything\Filter\Container::instance()->getSeoFrontendService(); // Replace this with your hook name $your_action_hook_name = 'woocommerce_archive_description'; add_action( $your_action_hook_name, [ $seoFrontEnd, 'showSeoDescription' ] ); } }

What’s the term to include H1 titles? seoH1 doesn’t seem to work.

Thanks!

Hi.

I had Filter Everything working when [Where to filter?] was set to ‘Product Categories’ and I had an Elementor ‘Products Archive’ for displaying the filters and search responses.

I have now decided I need a standalone page for the Product Filter, see URL below, but the page will not return the Query ‘Current Query’ products. You will see on the page that I have: - WooCommerce Elementor [Products] Query = Current Query - Below Is WooCommerce Elementor [Products] Query = Current Query - Below Is WooCommerce Elementor [Products] Query = Latest Products Only the Latest Products are coming through.

The [And what to filter?] has three options, and I’ve tried them all. - Product query #1 - Product query #2 - Product query #3

https://reprojects.co.uk/encoder-finder/

You can see that filters are correctly showing the number of products for each search option, so this part is seeing the Products.

Can I have a normal page to show Product search results, or is that not supported?

I would be grateful if you could advise.

Hi richardpevans

Thank you for choosing Filter Everything PRO.

Yes, you can easily use Loop Grid on a page and use filters for it. Also, everything depends on the custom templates as well.

Hi

We are trying to update the plug-in. However, it is saying license not valid.

I have tried deactivating and putting in the license code. It says ‘invalid’.

Are you able to help?

Hi Victor, we’ve now managed to resolve this.

We are however noticing continuous errors in our logs coming from the plugin. Would you be able to advise why this might be happening? We believe this is contributing to a high CPU use.

2024-07-21 09:28:59 Error IP: XXX.0.0.1 Message: 125069#0: *617250 openat() ”/var/www/vhosts/mydomain.com/httpdocs/furniture/categories-seating-or-swivel-chairs/colour-black-or-orange-or-silver/material-leather-or-plywood-or-steel/locations-poland” failed (2: No such file or directory)

Hi, first of all great plugin. However, I’m having a problem on this example page…

https://oddflower.co/shopify_cat/upcycled-pullovers/

The page is using javascript to inject some shopify product data into the corresponding posts we fetched from a custom post type using wp_query. The script looks for containers by id like and then injects the code into those product containers.

When I filter by “Fits Like” using your plugin, it filters out the CPT archive results as expected, however the products would not be re-injected into those containers when the new set of posts is loaded. They’re just empty containers.

So, we need to re-trigger the script when reloading the filtered products. I followed your documentation related to common AJAX issues and saw the recommendation to use jQuery document .ready. I have added this around the script to try that:

jQuery(document).on(‘ready’, function($){ // script to load the products and inject into their corresponding containers });

What happens now is that I see all of the products in this taxonomy being loaded after I select a filter, which is a step in the right direction. However, the posts are loaded at the bottom of the page—I need them to be injected into their corresponding containers like they do usually, but it seems they’re being loaded before the containers still so they don’t have a place to go? I will also obviously want to only load the products that are supposed to be loading (not all of them) but I can cross that bridge next after we fix this problem of the order in which the scripts are loaded.

Please let me know if you can help me solve this, thanks!

Can you please send the credentials to the wp-admin dashboard following this document so we can check it?

Also, please provide all of the needed information where the code that you are trying to fire, and some screens on how it should appear correctly and how it is appearing not correctly, just so we can test it right away.

Hallo, warum kann ich nicht mehr als 2 Kategorie/Schlagwörter bei “Fitern nach” einstellen? Ich habe eine Schmuckseite bei der ich eben nach “Metall”, Schmuckart” und “Stil” filtern möchte. Sobald ich aber auf “Filter hinzufügen” klicke (im Filter Set) kann ich dann leider nicht mehr die Kategorie und Schlagwörter auswählen (hinter der sich dann die weiteren “Begriffe einbeziehen” sammeln würden. Das ist sehr schade… dachte es hat damit zu tun, dass ich keine “Pro-Version” habe… aber jetzt nachdem ich die Pro gekauft hatte, ist das Problem immernoch da… kannst du mir helfen? Danke und Grüße, Fabian

Hello, why can’t I set more than 2 categories/keywords for ‘Filter by’? I have a jewellery page where I want to filter by ‘Metal’, ‘Jewellery type’ and ‘Style’. But as soon as I click on ‘Add filter’ (in the filter set), I can no longer select the category and keywords (behind which the other ‘Include terms’ would then be collected. That’s a pity… I thought it had something to do with the fact that I don’t have the ‘Pro version’... but now that I’ve bought the Pro, the problem is still there… can you help me? Thanks and regards, Fabian

Hi Fabian

If you have only one taxonomy, and created all of the categories there for example, metal, type, and style, and now want to create multiple filters from this taxonomy it won’t work. What you need to do is to create separate attributes, if you are working with WooCommerce, with the needed terms inside Products -> Attributes.

Or you can use custom fields with the needed data.

Also, with the help of this plugin – https://wordpress.org/plugins/custom-post-type-ui/ you can create separate taxonomies for each group, like one taxonomy for metal, another for type, ... and so on.

So then you can create separate filters from each taxonomy or custom field.

Hello Stepasyuk

Thanks, your plugin is amazing and works perfectly !

I have a question for you : I would like to choose which contents appear on the first load of the page with the research plugin active. In order to highlight some content before making a research. Is it possible to do ? (I’m using Avada with ACF pro and Post Cards)

Many thanks !

Jonathan

hmmmm it’s more like choosing the first content ourself to have some specific contents before making the first research.

And when you start a research, this first content desappear totally and let his place to the normal research content.

Maybe with a conditional get with avada ? But I’m not sure if it’s good/clean for the research system (ajax) to have content hidden on the page.

All we can think about is that you can only write some custom code functionality, with the help of this function:

//Check if is a filtered page
/**
 * @return bool true if it is a filtered page and false if not
 */ 
flrt_is_filter_request();

//Usage example:
<?php 
if( flrt_is_filter_request() ){
    // Your useful code
} ?>

So you can apply some changes if the page is filtered, when there are no filters chosen you can return some custom content.

Hi,

two questions:

1.) Is the compatibility for FiboSearch plugin coming? 2.) Is the improvement coming for the “Apply Button” search option, so that the filtering is only triggered when the button is clicked and not when a single filter is changed?

Thanks and regards

Hi hwvaubel

Unfortunately, as far as we know, there is no new information on both of the questions.

Best Regards,
- Victor

Hi,

ok, sad to hear. We asked like 7 months ago if there´s something coming and then we were told that it´s in planing. When you are not the developer, who is improving and developing this plugin?

The problem for us is really the incompatibility with FiboSearch. Are there roadmaps that show what will be developed next or will there be no major changes anymore.

Because we sadly would have to move then to a filter system that supports also FiboSearch like “AJAX Products Filter” from BeRocket and can not recommend this plugin in combination with FiboSearch.

Thanks and regards

Hi hwvaubel

Well as a support team, we only provide support on the plugin and its functionality. The development team is working on updates and extensions of current functionality. The last updates were more interim updates, to fix some known bugs. As far as we know, the development team is working on a major update, but it will not be released in the coming weeks.

Hi,

I’m trying to get my filters to load without refreshing the page by using AJAX in Elementor. I followed the instructions provided in this thread: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/finding-css-id-of-elementor-post-widget-for-ajax-filtering/. Specifically, I used the CSS ID .elementor-element-6dd3d71 and added it to the CSS ID and Classes section in the post section settings in elementor page builder.

However, I’m still encountering error message: It appears that this page does not contain a container with the specified «HTML id or class of the Posts Container». Try to specify the correct one in the Filter Set settings or the common plugin Settings.

Could you help me understand where I might be going wrong?

Thank you!

Hi JakeJJohnson

Please check this page how you can find the needed post container https://filtereverything.pro/resources/ajax-instructions-only/

Generally, there is no support for accounts whose support period has expired following the support policy.

But we can help you later after all requests from accounts with valid support periods are processed. It may take some time – days or weeks.

If you want to receive it faster, please extend the support period, and we will process the request with the priority for supported accounts.

Hi there,

I’m making a quick post but there’s no need for help, it’s just informative for the future.

I have kainographe.fr website in production for 6 months, no problem, your updates are done. Except today, the pro version had an update that took the site offline without access to the admin panel. (latest version of wordpress, php 8.1) I forgot the error message but it was an update file that had ‘failed’. I reinstalled the plugin from my hosting account and it’s ok. I have 11 days of support left, I hope it doesn’t happen again

This is already giving us some information, one more question do you update it from the Admin dashboard -> Plugins and then hit update on the plugin? Or did you download the latest version from this site and add it from plugins -> add new plugin -> upload plugin?

Best Regards,
- Victor

from the administration panel. It’s in auto and it’s usually done alone at night but as I was connected I pressed ‘update now’.

I was able to repair it by doing your 2nd manipulation after having deactivated it manually from the ftp.

On my dev server on which I put my backup to try to reproduce the bug I am in version 1.8.5 but for the moment the administration panel does not offer the update to 1.8.6; maybe after a day or two

Thank you for the information, we’ll try to recreate it on our back.

Hi please can you issue a refund the search function doesnt work as I required it too

where do I add this you seemed to have added this but I cannot add this

I really dont understand what the WP query is set or what this relates too and the documentation doesnt make it clear

Please check this image – https://i.imgur.com/OGlIP4Y.png

In the “Where to filter” you choose the needed page or set it as any page.

In the “And what to filter” there will be a list of queries, and one of the queries is responsible for displaying posts on your page. When you choose the correct query it will filter those posts.

When you set it on any pages, be very careful as it takes queries from the first page in the list like this – https://i.imgur.com/SMwG37a.png if this first page empty it won’t show queries, so you need to make the first page in the list with the needed queries. It might sound a bit confusing, but if you want us to set an example, we need information as to what category or pages you are trying to set Any page with a common query. Like on all product categories, on all posts category pages, and so on.

I can not active my new license, it always said Fail to active please help me Invalid license key. Please enter correct license key.

Hi lenka2014

Thank you for choosing Filter Everything PRO.

Please follow the instructions from this page – https://filtereverything.pro/resources/license-key-issues/#how_to_get_the_license_key to get the license key.

We recommend that you use an Incognito mode of the browser to be sure that you are logged in with the account under which you purchased the plugin.

Best Regards,

ok im sure it work only on Incognito model. at nomarly browser it is blank

Hi lenka2014

It is because in normal mode more likely you have another account logged in already, so it simply uses it by default, that’s why it is showing blank space. As that account does not have a purchased plugin on it.

Hi rajatbagaria

Thank you for your interest in the Filter Everything plugin.

The regular license can be activated on two sites, as usually one is prod and the second is a stage. But you can always use both on the prod sites.
