Hello! I bought the Filter Everything Pro plugin. There was a problem in the free version, the correct number of entries was displayed in the categories. But in the PRO version, the number of entries is zero. In other types of entries, the number of entries is displayed correctly

Hello support,
We recently launched a new website for one of our clients, and since then our plugin has been blocked. The message states that we have used the plugin without a valid license for two months, but this is not correct.
The plugin was only used during the development of the new website, and we have always had a valid license. It seems that after moving the site from the development environment to the live domain, the license verification may not have updated correctly.
Could you please check this for us and reactivate the plugin on the new website? If you need any details such as the domain name, license key, or purchase information, let us know and we will provide them right away.
Thank you in advance for your support!
Best regards, Lauri Wissink 050 Marketing
Could you reply to: lauri@050marketing.nl
Hi 050marketing
Yes, you can send your license key via PM here: https://codecanyon.net/user/fe_support so we can check it and deactivate it across all sites. This will allow you to activate it only on the required sites.

Victor
Can you check my mail? Didnt heared anything back from support
Hi amandomm
The response was provided yesterday in this comment thread: https://codecanyon.net/comments/31713583
And the issue is still persisting on the site: https://prnt.sc/V9Gk_mzV_Se6
We cannot check anything. Please fix it so we can test it.

The site works perfect here, can you retry it ?
It’s randomly crashing for us with an “ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT” error. It doesn’t matter whether we’re using a VPN or not; the results are the same. Some admin dashboard pages open fine, while others trigger the timeout error, and we cannot access the site anymore for some time.
Best Regards,
Victor
Right now, we have decided to deactivate the plugin when the site becomes available again, but it triggered the error once more, and we can’t access the site now, most likely for about 10–15 minutes.
Best Regards,
Victor
If needed you can deactive all other plugins
Can you please deactivate all other plugins, leaving only WooCommerce (if you’re using it), ACF (Advanced Custom Fields), and other plugin that is required to display the posts on the page where you try to filter them?
Also, are you experiencing the same issue with the timeout error from time to time, or is it only affecting us?

Hi Purchase code is same as license key? I enters purchase code in license key filed and i have massage : Invalid license key. Please enter correct license key.

Please help
Hi growbusinesssolutions
Thank you for choosing Filter Everything PRO.
It is important to keep in mind that the License key and CodeCanyon purchase code are two different things.
Please use incognito mode in your browser!
In order to set the License key for the Filter Everything PRO plugin, simply head to Filters -> Settings -> License and click the “Get your License Key” button.
It will take you to a new page where you have to log in with your Envato credentials (with an account where you have purchased the plugin) and obtain your License key.

Victor
amazing it works thank you!

Wish to request a refund.
Hi hengdong20101
We are sorry to hear that. In a previous response, we asked for more details about the issue you’re experiencing with the plugin, as we may be able to help you if you provide more information.
Additionally, we have also provided information regarding a refund.

Hi I’d like to get a refund – I’ve been following the instructions for 2 days and it is not filtering the posts I need.
Hi meerap2
Thank you for choosing Filter Everything PRO.
Could you please describe what type of posts you were trying to filter and on which page? It’s possible that the issue was related to the configurations.

Hi, I´m using the Free Version to make a decision on purchasing the Pro one. However, I´m stuck on something: even when AJAX is disabled, the plugin is updating as a step-by-step filter, making petitions and highlighting the options available, when I clearly selected no ajax and using the buttons to filter.
I want to just select the options, no ajax or update on the filters, and when clic do a single petition to filter. I don´t want that every time I pick an option, makes a petition to change available filters and then show when clic.

After working on it I found the the Ajax is conflict with “Indeed Ultimate Membership Pro” plugin. But even then data load is extremely slow but even so links are not working if I change country for second time. “Indeed” is activated now.
Hi vassilisdesign
We have checked the site using Chrome and Opera on Windows OS. It seems like you’ve already fixed the issue, as you mentioned. The filtering speed appears average, with no noticeable delays. Everything else seems to be working fine.
Is there a specific pattern we should try to reproduce the issue, or could you share a video link demonstrating the problem? That would help us better understand it, as you might be experiencing a completely different response than what we are seeing.

Divi 5 Loop Builder support needed. Can you please add proper functioning with Divi 5’s Loop Builder when filtering on CPTs being displayed with the Loop Builder and not just for their Blog Post module? There are page formatting/display issues currently when using. Not sure if this is your issue or theirs.
Hi jchambo
Can you please send the credentials to the wp-admin dashboard following this document so we can check it?
Preferably to the staging site, so we can add any required changes without worrying. This will allow us to check everything safely.
Also, please attach the link to the exact page where you are using that loop and filters, so we can test everything directly there.
Best Regards,
Victor
DM sent with site and credentials.
FYI, I tested Divi 5 Version: 5.0.0-public-alpha.22 and the plugin worked fine. On their latest release Version: 5.0.0-public-alpha.23.1 it’s broken. I reported this to Elegant Themes support, and they were able to reproduce it. They added it to their laundry list of bugs with no ETA on a fix.
Hi jchambo
We had to deactivate the LiteSpeed Caching plugin for testing purposes, as it appears to be configured to cache everything it can. We also updated the filter settings by simply hitting the update button in the filter set. It seems like everything is now working as it should. (The LiteSpeed Cache plugin is still deactivated, so you can check the site before turning it back on, as it might cache certain elements.)
On one page, there are some issues with styles appearing and disappearing, but that’s definitely related to the page builder/theme functionality and how it’s loading and applying the CSS.
The filtering itself is working correctly, filtering the posts on the page as expected.
Best Regards,
Victor
Thanks for looking – Elegant Themes did confirm the issue as well for Divi 5 and their Loop Builder. I believe the issue is with Custom CPTs and their theme at the moment.
Let us know the end results so we’ll be updated as well, in case other clients come across the same issue.

Hi, I am using filters on Product Archives based on Product Categories.
If I add Product Categories into the “Filter by”, I see the main category of the page, greyed out and checked. Subcategories appear beneath.
Is there a setting to exclude the Product Category from the presented options, if this filter category = the page category that the filter set resides on?
I know I can use Exclude to exclude this category, but that means a different Filter Set for every parent category. I’m looking for a solution that works automatically without me manually setting exlcusions.
Thank you
Hi Hendo25
Thank you for choosing Filter Everything PRO.
Well, not really. Because if it’s using the hierarchy option, the item that falls under it will be available but hidden until you click the + icon next to it. If it were completely hidden, it wouldn’t be possible to expand. It’s simply displayed there to indicate that you’re currently on a physical category page.
However, you can use custom CSS for that; the category term should have the disabled parameter applied to it. So you can write custom CSS to hide it on all pages that include such a parameter, and also specify which child or next element should be hidden along with it.
Best Regards,
Victor
Hi – thanks for the quick reply.
Will CSS positively effect the logic?
I want another filter to rely on a parent being checked (Product Category). i.e. If any Category is checked, then show new filter.
But… I want that logic to ignore the Parent Category that is checked (and greyed) by default.
So basically, if subcategory is checked then show new filter.
At present the new filter is always shown, because the parent category is always checked.
Hi Hendo25
If you won’t hide required elements that have a purpose to open something, then it will not affect the filters at all, only visually.
That category is ignored by default. It only appears to be checked (visually), but in reality, it is disabled and cannot be selected.
Best Regards, Victor
Hi – thanks again.
I don’t think I explained my case very well.
I have a filter by Product Categories, used on Product Category archive pages. (Settings: Hide Empty Filters)
Filter:
Parent Category1 - Sub1 - Sub2 - Sub3 etc
When viewing this, I see Parent Category1 checked and disabled.
I have additional filters in the same Filter Set, that I want to show only if Sub1 / Sub2 / Sub3 are checked.
On these additional filters, I choose settings: Parent Filer = Product Category Hide Until Parent Select = on
The additional filters always show. Which I assume is because Product Category1 is always “checked”.
I can get it working only by Excluding Parent Category1 from the Product Filters.
Is this the expected behaviour?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Ah, okay. Now we see the issue. We’ve managed to recreate it on our end as well. We’ve added it to the development list to be reviewed and fixed in an upcoming update by the development team.
Best Regards,
Victor
Brilliant – thanks for reviewing again. Could you tell me how frequently updates are published? And will I get notified? Thank you
We don’t have exact dates or an average update frequency, as it depends on the type of functionality currently in development, and at the moment, there’s quite a lot in progress.
The next update will be packed with core features such as:
1) XML sitemap support
2) Import/export functionality
3) Date filter for ACF date picker fields
4) Autogeneration filter sets with at least 5 filters for every post type, as an example.
5) General fixes and improvements
While it might not look like much, those are quite heavy functionalities that require deep polishing to provide a solution that can fit all cases and does not cause any conflicts. Hopefully, this fix will be included in the next update.
Best Regards,
Victor
I would like to ask for a refund as the pro plugin was not what i was expected.
Hi hengdong20101
Thank you for choosing Filter Everything PRO.
Can you please provide some information on what you expected and what didn’t work in your case? Perhaps we can help make it work for you.
In general, a refund is possible by submitting a form through the account where the plugin was purchased and waiting for a response. Please note that the support team does not handle refunds. Furthermore, we have no control over the refund team and cannot speed up the process or influence it in any way.

Hi I have a few questions before purchase.
1 is it compatible wit Metabox custom fields?
2 is it possible when using a filterset with an apply button with redirect to have the filter result count in the button label like “Show xxx products”
Thanks a lot
Hi sbucommerce
Thank you for your interest in the Filter Everything plugin.
1) Yes, you can create filters from custom fields. You can use the ACF plugin to apply custom fields to the required post types and use those meta keys for filters. If there are already existing custom fields on posts coming from other plugin functionality, they should work the same, as they all rely on the default WordPress functionality in the end.
2) Not out of the box, maybe such a feature will be introduced in future updates. The apply button does not have such a feature. Only the mobile widget has it.
Best Regards,
Victor
After I buy it can you give me some hints where to look to customize the button thanks a lot i will buy the plugin and test it
We contacted the development team, and they said that this can be included in one of the upcoming plugin updates. Rather than adding a quick, half-broken workaround, they want to provide a polished, out-of-the-box solution that works smoothly.

Victor
Can we filter posts by category and sub category? I’m using custom field and pulling off of parent filter but can not get the sub category to display
Hi freshfitz
Do you mean creating two filters, one showing only parent categories and the other showing only subcategories? If that’s the case, this is not possible yet.
Best Regards,
Victor
We want to click the parent category then show the sub categories, just like this https://www.hitt.com/projects/
On the page, we can see only this: https://prnt.sc/DyBbpf6rw-HU it looks like three separate filters, and nothing appears as subcategories when we click on any of the options. Only the chips at the bottom are showing. Perhaps you can send us a link to a video showing how you’re trying to make it work?

Hi there
Is there a way to automatically apply title case to the SEO Title in Filter Everything Pro?
I would like the SEO Titles to be formatted with each word capitalized for consistency but I do not see an option for this.
Could you let me know if this is possible?
Thank you.
Hi beniangel
If all of the filter terms are using capital letters, all you need to do is add entities like product category (product_cat), color attribute (pa_color), etc., in Filters > Settings > General: https://prnt.sc/yOsgaos9JJFJ
Best Regards,
Victor
Hi Victor
Thank you for clarifying.
When you say entities do you mean the variables such as {brand} and {category}?
Hi Victor
Thank you for clarifying.
When you say entities do you mean the variables such as {brand} and {category}?
Hi beniangel
Taxonomies, attributes, etc., we refer to them as entities just to generalize. For example, a color attribute created under Products > Attributes with terms like Blue, Green, or Gray.
You can check the URL when on the color attribute: https://prnt.sc/LKEKMzxPSUOV you’ll see the attribute name is pa_color. This is the name you need to use in that input.

Hi Victor
Would it be possible to generate a sitemap for the filters we uploaded?
Thank you
Hi beniangel
The sitemap XML functionality will be available only in the upcoming 1.9.2 update.
Best Regards,
Victor
Thank you for the help
Hi Victor
Do you have any update on when version 1.9.2 is expected to be released?
Thank you
Hi beniangel
In general, we expect to release it by the end of this month. However, it will most likely be postponed, as a few hidden issues arose during in-depth testing that need to be thoroughly investigated and fixed before the release. Additionally, the list of initial features to be included in the update keeps growing, so there is still quite a bit in development.
So at this moment, it’s quite hard to predict, as new features can be added to the update at any time. It might even be split into two separate updates, though it’s not yet clear what the development team’s exact plans are. However, this update is significantly larger compared to previous ones, so unexpected issues can arise.
Best Regards,
Victor
Thank you for the update.
I am currently trying to fix some issues reported in my SE Ranking audit and it shows this tag as the cause:
<meta name=’robots’ content=’noindex, nofollow’ />
It seems to be added by the Filter Everything Pro plugin.
Can I safely remove this tag or adjust it somewhere in the plugin settings?
You can remove or modify it using the WP robot tags hook. However, we do not recommend changing it to “index” or similar, as this would cause all filtered combinations to be indexed. The number of these combinations can be extremely high (potentially 200k or more), depending on how many filters you have, which could negatively impact the site’s performance if crawlers attempt to crawl them nonstop.

Victor

Hi!
Question about hierarchical brand filter behavior:
Taxonomy: hierarchical brand (e.g., parent N&D → children Ocean/Prime/Pumpkin).
Current behavior If the parent term is checked and then I check any child term, the parent remains checked. This makes results too broad and forces users to manually uncheck the parent.
Wanted: when a child is selected, auto-uncheck parent.
Optional: allow using the same taxonomy twice — (A) parent selector (top-level only, doesn’t affect query) → (
child selector (shows children of selected parent, does affect query).
Is there a built-in setting for this (“exclude parent when child selected” / “use as parent only”)?
If not, could you share a safe JS/PHP hook/snippet to implement it?
Bonus: can child level be single-select (radio) with an “All” default?
Repro: check parent → check child → parent stays checked (undesired).
Thank you
Igor
Hi Igor
No, unfortunately, there is no functionality for such tuning yet. Also, following the support guidelines on CodeCanyon: https://prnt.sc/FVBlwVGrrBHh anything related to custom code, extending the plugin’s functionality beyond what is included by default, or styling is outside the scope of the support policy.
While you can experiment with it. What you can try is using template overriding: https://filtereverything.pro/resources/templates-overriding/ along with custom code to make it work exactly as needed for your case.
However, this will require quite a bit of work to make it function as intended, especially if you are trying to combine multiple behaviors within the same filter.
Best Regards,
Victor
I am using the plugin in horizontal mode with all of the filter options set as drop-down menus, and it’s almost perfect.
Is there an easy way to reduce the gap between the top row of dropdown boxes and the bottom row so the filterable results are higher on the page?
Also, is there a way to reduce the margin or padding between the top and bottom of the plugin and the title above it and the filter results below it?
Hi shaunmarrs
Yes, you can apply your own custom CSS styles to the required elements. Simply place the custom CSS in Filters > Settings > Experimental > Custom CSS, then hit the Save button.
Unfortunately, custom CSS styles are outside the scope of the support policy on CodeCanyon. However, you can check this page for general information on how to find the classes of the required elements on the page: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/colour-change-to-filter-title/

Hi,
I have set up a Filet Set, filtering on Categories, and added shortcodes to display the widget.
I have set the filter to a page called Filter> https://dnbf.org/filter/
The widget does show up, but I don’t get any posts to show up, and I have tried all the four “What to filter?” − non of them gives any post output.
I am using latest WordPress, Avada theme, and WPML (I have enabled translating Filter Sets in WPML)
What is missing? I read that there is no shortcode to put, where the posts should show, and perplexity.ai does not make sense to me:
“However, the plugin itself does not have a specific shortcode to output posts directly; instead, it filters posts already output by WordPress loops or page builders that show posts on the page.
To display posts that respond to the filters, you typically set up a WordPress archive or query loop on the page, and Filter Everything filters that output dynamically via AJAX or page reloads.
In short, there is no unique shortcode like [fe_posts] for outputting posts; the plugin filters the posts displayed through the normal WordPress post loops or page builder elements wherever you place the [fe_widget] shortcode for the filters.”
Kindly,
Bjørge 
Hi Bjørge
Thank you for choosing Filter Everything PRO.
That’s correct. The plugin itself does not display any posts on empty pages; it only filters the posts that are already being displayed via main query or a custom WP_Query.
By default, for example, WooCommerce products are shown on archive pages (the default Shop page) or category pages where the main query is already in use to display the products. The same goes for blog posts; they are displayed on the index.php or other archive templates using the main query, or a custom WP_Query.
So, in order for the filtering to work, you first need to ensure that products or posts are being displayed on the page via WP_Query. The filtering plugin only applies filters to the content that is already displayed; it does not fetch or display posts on its own.
If in simple words. Imagine you have a box of apples, and you want to filter them by size. You have a machine that filters the apples into small, medium, and large. But if there are no apples in the box, the filtering machine won’t create apples; it can only filter what’s already there. The same goes for the plugin: it doesn’t generate posts or products; it only filters the ones that are already being displayed on the page.
Best Regards,
Victor
Yes, but the posts do list/show when editing the page, see screenshot:
https://dnbf.org/posts-showing.pngIs your plugin not compatible with Avada?
Kindly,
Bjørge 
Try turning off our plugin and see if the posts appear on that page. This will help determine whether the issue is connected to our plugin or caused by something else.
Best Regards,
Victor
Okay, so using the Avada theme, these are my options so far:
1) My best so far is to define a Filter Set for all the archive pages, and add the filter-shortcode into the Avada Archive Theme, and this proves that the Filter Everything Pro CAN filter the posts − but still problematic.
So for example my category page …/category/fotspor/ looks like this:
https://dnbf.org/category/fotspor/But the category “fotspor” is “default” and always on, even though the other categores filters work. But Filter Everything Pro does works here, so I am on the right track. And the Ajax also works fine!
How can I somehow enable ALL the posts as default?
2) A second option is using a normal page, and not the an archive page, and to add a code-snippet into the function.php file, which through a shortcode, runs a WP_query, which can be filtered by Filter Everything Pro, and then presented by Avada Post Card elements (which shows the posts formated by Avada).
But the Avada Post Cards element uses its own custom query loop to display posts, which usually does not automatically integrate with Filter Everything Pro’s filtering system.
I have tried to create a page, with a Filet Set pointing at that page, using the filter-shortcode on the left, and the Avada Post Card elements to the right. But they is not connected:
https://dnbf.org/blogg/Does such a code snippet exist to make this work? That will actually be the best solution for us.
3) Any other good option for us?
Kindly, Bjørge
Hi Bjørge
1) This is the correct and expected behavior https://prnt.sc/o21lY4xAWJ8M When you have a filter on an archive page (for example, a category named “cars”) and you’re already on the “cars” category page, the “cars” category will be marked as already selected in filter terms. You cannot select it, as it would result in a duplicate URL like /category/cars/filter_category-cars/. The filter terms are displayed strictly based on the products shown on that specific page.
2) Can you please send the credentials to the wp-admin dashboard following this document so we can check it?
Best Regards,
Victor
I can not PM you because “FE_support: Account verification in progress”, so I sent en “Email Stepasyuk” in stead, with credentials to wp-admin. Greetings, Bjørge
All good and working as it should here: https://staging.dnbf.org/blogg/
The only thing you missed is configuring the “And what to filter” option to select the correct post list to filter. We tested all of them, and only the last one was responsible for the posts displayed on the page: https://prnt.sc/tip7ZHVTbKgy
Best Regards,
Victor
Thank you very much! Now everything works as I wished – I can even use Avada Post Cards on a page, and Javax and mobile popup – that is awsome!
Kindly, Bjørge 
We are glad to hear that everything is working as you need.
Best Regards,
Victor
One more thing – when in Settings, filter widget on mobile = “Appear as a Pop-up”, the filter button appears as it should. But it appers on ALL other pages as well?
How to remove the bottons from all other pages?
If the mobile button is visible on all pages, you need to go to the Filters → Settings → Experimental and turn on the “Hide opening widget buttons” option. It will hide the mobile filter button, so you need to add the shortcode [fe_open_button] (in the same place the filters widget is) to display the mobile filter button in the needed place.
So if we take an example with the page that you send us, you can add that shortcode below here: https://prnt.sc/VLIufDQiSzY3
Best Regards,
Victor
