Hi there,

I am using this plugin with the “Twenty Twenty-Four” default theme by Wordpress. Really cool so far, I included the filters via shortcode, which works fine. The problem is that I can’t add sorting.

The instructions here are based on having “Widgets” in the appearance menu – which modern block-based themes don’t have anymore.
https://filtereverything.pro/resources/sorting-widget/

The shortcode method described here only works with a previously created widget. So it’s not working:
https://filtereverything.pro/resources/shortcodes/#sorting-widget

So my question is: How is the sorting dropdown added with modern block themes like the Wordpress default theme “Twenty Twenty-Four”?

Hi BrickMeUp

Thank you for choosing Filter Everything PRO.

You can use a code snippet plugin and add a snippet like this one (this is just an example):

// Enable widget areas in the 2024 WordPress default theme
function mytheme_register_widget_areas() {
    // Register a sidebar widget area
    register_sidebar( array(
        'name'          => __( 'Sidebar Widget Area', 'mytheme' ),
        'id'            => 'sidebar-1',
        'description'   => __( 'Add widgets here to appear in your sidebar.', 'mytheme' ),
        'before_widget' => '<div id="%1$s" class="widget %2$s">',
        'after_widget'  => '</div>',
        'before_title'  => '<h2 class="widget-title">',
        'after_title'   => '</h2>',
    ) );
}
add_action( 'widgets_init', 'mytheme_register_widget_areas' );

Hi,

I have the following problem in the backend admin area, the filter including ajax works. It doesn’t work in the frontend. I have already inserted the HTML ID but unfortunately it doesn’t work. I’ve already switched off the plugins etc. Unfortunately it doesn’t work.

thx

Hi snoopdog1971

Please check this page with the AJAX configurations, also please make sure that everything is working without AJAX only then use the AJAX filtering – https://filtereverything.pro/resources/ajax-instructions-only/

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

Hello, I am currently using the PRO version of your plugin, asked for support a while ago and managed to solve the issues. However, I noticed the plugin is responsible for a number of slow queries that are making my site slower. Would it be possible to send you screenshots of the queries and see if the issue is solvable? Despite having 20.000+ products, I am not sure if slow queries are supposed to be the norm

Thank you in advance

Based on my researches, seems like Rocket Loader taking up a lot of time is due to many layout issues. The problem is that even trying to optimize the page in many ways, I didn’t succeed, so I was analyzing all possible causes (I saw that yours is not that heavy tho, I wasn’t sure if it was normal or not). I know that it isn’t your concern, but since you have credntials, if you have recommendations on how to speed up the site, that would be good. I already deactivated rocket loader and disabled things you pointed out

Also, you have a couple of those errors, we are not sure if they slow slowdown the site itself – https://prnt.sc/YGRMTiPZAX0b but would be nice to check. Also, check the must-use plugins, we are not sure what each of them is doing.

The page itself loads around 6s, which is also not the best result to have. If we test it with the lighthouse – https://prnt.sc/4JEyVBSmLyW2 we can see the loading time up to 8s.

To be honest, you’ve gone a bit overboard with the number of plugins and page builder solutions for your site (this is the main reason for the slow site). From the first look, it could be built with the default 2024 theme with a bit of custom CSS and custom templates. And it would fly. From plugins WooCoomerce, FE, Light Speed if you want, and ACF for custom fields. Perhaps some other if you need extra functionality, but we haven’t noticed it.

I see, thank you for the help, much appreciated.

Is there an estimated date for release of a version that includes option to duplicate a Filter Set and to export/import Filter Sets? I found comments from 4 and 8 months ago that it was in the works and hoping that it’ll be available soon. Thank you SO much for such a great filtering product!

Hi rogueweb

Yes, the development process has started, but unfortunately, it was postponed due to the architecture, which is currently being reworked in order to make it all work seamlessly without any bugs or issues, also there are other things that we spotted during the process, and they should be honed before that. As the initial one was causing quite a lot of issues and bugs, so firstly we should rework those things and only then continue with the feature of duplicate/import/export. On the lists, it should be all good, but during development, we get absolutely different results.

We are currently unable to provide you with estimated dates. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. As soon as we receive any information from the development team, we will immediately inform you in this comment thread.

Hi rogueweb

The update to add the duplication of Filter Sets will be released today in a couple of hours.

Import/export will be released in the next update.

How to sort filter elements in the way we want. For example, we have a discipline filter with these elements: math, history, and English. How can we add them in the order we want? For example, English, history, and math. We have changed the order in the database, but it’s still the same in the filter.

Hi rekosa

If you want to make a manual order for filter terms, you need to use the hook ’wpc_terms_before_display’ – https://filtereverything.pro/resources/hooks/#terms-before-display-hook

In order to write a custom code with the needed sorting logic that will fit your case.

Hi Team, I have created two filters. One for the region (eg Europe & Americas) and one for the country (eg Germany, Sweden, US, Canada). When I select Europe it only shows the country filters for Europe, which is fine. But when I change than the regions filter to Americas I still have URL slug elements from Europe.

Can I setup the filter somehow, that when I change the Region, the other filters will be reseted?

Thanks!

Hi via-con

Thank you for your interest in the Filter Everything plugin.

At the moment, there is no such functionality, but we will add it to the development list, so it may be added in the next updates.

Dear Stepas,

I would like to do a filter with data I imported from a excel sheet. In this Excel-sheet i want to take care of that the fiels in the collumn match on attribute level in Products-menu of WordPress, Elementor, Woocommerce and Filter Everything.

Which steps should i take in advance to make sure this will work with the Filter Everything plugin. Should i download further plugins or do some producer and how do I assure it won’t conflict with the plugin?

Thanks in advance.

Kind regards,

Remon

Hi Remon

Hmm, all possible conflicts that can appear are a 404 error, in case you use the already existing slugs for filter prefixes. For example, if you have a category “color” and create a filter with the prefix “color,” it can conflict.

The best option here is always to have some unique adding to the prefixes, like fe_color, fe_brand, fe_size, and so on. Just make sure you’ll use _ and not -

Hello,

I have a question. Is it possible to create a numeric range slider for numeric attributes? For instance, I want to create a numeric slider filter for the laptop screen size (11”, 13”, 15”, 17”), which is a product attribute. I ask the question, because usually with other filter products it only works with taxonomies, not attributes.

Hi Altano

Thank you for your interest in the Filter Everything plugin.

Yes, you can, but those values should be strictly numerical, for example: 10, 17, 10.5, 20.1, ..., and so on.

But if you use values like 17”, 20’, and other values like that it will be string values and not numerical, so those values would not work with the range slider.

Best Regards,
- Victor

Thank you. I have another question reguarding the numeric slider filter. Is it possible to disable the counter unit (+ and -) inside the inputs? The issue is that everytime the user click on the buttons, it triggers the AJAX search. The input entry and the slider are enough.

Hi Altano

Yes, that can be removed by the custom CSS.

Hello. Im Using Filter Everything Pro.

I had issue about currency filtering, cuz the filter allways showed the (EUR) base currency. As You recommended, Im using CURCY, and I get code from you what I need to insert in function php.

HONESTLY…... the CURCY is unstable, and always have issue in my site, regards coverting the shipping cost.

SOLUTION: I wanna use woopayments inbulid multi currency.

Do you have some code what I need to insert in function php? Because if im using WooPayments Multi Currency, the Filter also showing up only the base curreny.

Thanks for Help

Hi,

I have created a “Custom Post Type” in my WordPress and put one element on this page: https://easytechpro.com/clientes/

But when I tried to configurate the “Filter set” I received this message:

“No WP Queries matched the post type “%s” found on the page”

How can I show this filter in my page?

Hi sebasgogos

Thank you for choosing Filter Everything PRO.

It seems that the issue was resolved, as everything seems to work and filter – https://prnt.sc/B4QYUqNieHo8

Hi, presale question:

Does the filter support variation filtering that would result in loading that selected variation’s images on the product card as well?

I couldn’t find this on your demo.

Thanks

Hi gr8leo87

Thank you for your interest in the Filter Everything plugin.

The filter can filter by variations, but it will not display its image on the parent variable product, especially if there are a couple of variations chosen in the filter, as physically it is only one parent product and when you click on it you can choose the options. But we know that the development team is working on it, in order to provide at least some solution to this.

Hi, I recently installed the Filter Everything Pro plugin on my website. My goal is to show the filter bar and results on the homepage of my website.

Backend On the back end, I’ve configured the filter bar except that where it says ‘what to filter’ the only choice is ‘No WP Queries matched the post type “Template” found on the page”. Screenshot (https://share.zight.com/jku0O2DB).

Front End On the front end, you can see the “Template” posts appear on the homepage but the filter bar doesn’t seem to recognize them. (link: https://marketingdashboardtemplates.com/).

On this wordpress site, we are using the Avada builder and more specifically, the “postcard” functionality to display posts.

Thank you.

Hi rickmagoo

We have checked the site, and this is a typical issue with WPEngine-powered sites, the issue is in the caching that WPEngine is providing, to be more specific is an Object cache that caches all of the Queries on the pages. Please contact your hosting support or manually turn off/configure object cache so it won’t cause those types of issues.

Best Regards,
- Victor

Thank you Victor. I was able to disable object cache on that page and can confirm that it’s working as intended. I appreciated your support on this. Have a nice week ahead.

Rick

We are glad to hear that everything is working now. Have an amazing day!

Hi Support Team, could I ask a couple of questions, please? Is there any way to have a multi-select field on Dropdown so users can choose more than one filter? And where can I add/update the “not elements found” text? Any help is appreciated! Thank you.

Hi klarakucerova

1) Please check this comment – https://codecanyon.net/comments/30907742 

In case the ID picture is not opening there, here it is – https://prnt.sc/9j3SiL-VXk3f

It contains all of the needed information on how this can be achieved. In future updates, this feature should be added as out-of-the-box functionality.

2) This message is going from the page template, for example, archive.php or index.php if you are using any page builders it can be configured from there as well. The plugin is not connected to this message.

Best Regards,
- Victor

Hi Victor, thank you!

This is a perfect solution for us. However, we are having a little issue with the content: We are filtering by nested categories (custom taxonomies). Using your approach changes the markup but doesn’t respect the category nesting order. Is there a way to fix that?

Meanwhile, I have manually changed the order of the categories in the admin to visually simulate their correct order, but that’s not ideal for future changes.

I hope this makes sense. Thank you!

Hi klarakucerova

You can go to the filter set, choose the view option for categories as checkboxes, and from more options choose “Show hierarchy” – https://prnt.sc/h9T_BDsHc-vO also there will be an alphabetic sort order.

Hello Victor,

I have a compatibility problem between FE and the Elementor Pro query system on archive pages. The 2 systems cannot work together. If I apply a query with Elementor, then it shows the entire catalog, ignoring FE filtering.

The problem is that I have to perform a first query to filter a taxonomy. Can I indicate a mandatory search element in FE? All elements are taxonomies.

Thank you for your help,

Elodie

Hi Elodie

We have checked the site and chose another query in the Filter Set “And what to filter” Dropdown, hit update and now it is working at least on the

yoursite.com/catalogue/ page

If you have any other page where you need it to work let us know.

Best Regards,
- Victor

Thank you Victor, that’s perfect! Could you please tell me what you exactly did? I need to apply the same setting for 4 more showroom’s websites… which means 4 more FE licences for you ;-)

Hi Elodie

Yes, we simply changed the query in the “And what to filter,” please check this image – https://prnt.sc/Utvcyf3VmLLu (it is from our site) as you may see there are 4 different queries, and only one is responsible for displaying posts/products on your page. So you need to choose the correct one and hit the update button, and everything is working.

Hello,

I have given url prefix as p_c, d_r how to throw error if someone changes slug from domain.com/search/p_c-certificate-courses/ to domain.com/search_p_c1-certificate-courses/ how to catch error?

So basically, the filter prefix is the “p_c” and there is a slug that has for example, “p_c-something” this can cause a 404 error. You would need to create a unique prefix for the filters like fe_prod_something.

Best Regards,
- Victor

do you have any option in filtereverything pro plugin for changing default wordpress ie domain.com/?s= to domain.com/searchresults/?s=

Hi palivelasrikanth

No, unfortunately, there is no such thing in the plugin at all. No even sure what we can reccomend here.

Hi Victor, just checking – if I have the Pro version enabled, should I then disable and delete the Free version?

Hi goodbanter

Yes, the Free and the PRO versions are two separate plugins, so you do not need the Free version when you have a PRO. So after you install the PRO version and activate it, you can delete the Free version.

Hello, I’m facing an issue where search doesn’t work with elementor loop grid except the page 1. If I go to page 2 or any other page then the search doesn’t filter anything.

Here is a quick video of the issue: https://drive.google.com/file/d/10Xwtp9uf7JWqEwsVvO7f0Er8EfPwJTkm/view?usp=sharing

These are my settings: https://i.imgur.com/iFAzu2C.png https://i.imgur.com/8h7Pl5k.png

I have fixed the issue by turning this option off in Elementor’s loop grid options: https://i.imgur.com/8Q3rMx3.png

I’m not sure if this is optimal but it worked. :)

Hi char_iliad

Yes, that is the correct choice. When you had it “on” it was adding a unique GET parameter to the URL with pagination, so when you go to the second page and do the search it actually did find the product but you were physically still on the second page (which is empty) as this GET parameter is still in the URL

Best Regards,
- Victor

Thanks a lot!

Hey, is there any way to change the “srch” in the url bar to something different?

For example ?srch=sample

to ?search=sample

Hi jenesis

Thank you for choosing Filter Everything PRO.

Unfortunately, there is no such possibility in the default plugin settings. In order to change it to something else you would need to modify the plugin itself. But we do not recommend it to change to other values as it can cause conflicts with already used slugs.

Hello, I’m having issue with creating/adding filter to my product page template in elementor pro. I’ve successfully added filters (by category) to several pages (with product loop grid on page). i would like to add this to all of my product pages (via single product page template in sidebar) so when customer visits a product page, the category filter would show in the sidebar and the selected categories of products would show on page where product is showing. I hope this make sense.

Thank you!

Hi onestopsitedesign1

Thank you for choosing Filter Everything PRO.

A template with a sidebar and filter widget or shortcode would not allow for the ability to filter anything. When you create a filter set there are settings “Where to filter” and “And what to filter?”.

Where to filter – Defines a specific page or All of the pages (with a common query) on which this Filter Set should be applied.

And what to filter? – Defines which WP query (a posts list) should be filtered.

Just placing a filter set in the template is not possible, you need to place the filter set on the needed page and choose the needed query in order to make it display there and work.

Hi! I would like to make sure that when a user filters in my filters there is always this logic: For example https://decretoflussiitalia.it/profili/: The user clicks Food and Construction.

Now profiles that have both solutions come up as results, but that would not be correct. The system should work like the one in this demo under Processor https://demo.filtereverything.pro/product-category/electronics/laptops/processor-amd-athlon-or-amd-ryzen-5/ I would therefore like the profile with the food sector to be added to the results in addition to the profile corresponding to Construction

Therefore, a profile does not have to fulfil both conditions. It can also fulfil only one.

How can i do this? Thx,

Hi andreyellow

If you have two filters, one is food and the second one is construction, then they always will work with the “AND” logic. If you have one filter and have multiple filter terms, you can always go to the filter set settings, navigate to your filter, and choose the logic for it “OR/AND”. This logic will be for filter terms only, there is no possible way to choose a logic between filters.

- Victor
