P.S. I have disabled all plugins except of Filter Everything and WooCommerce. The theme is based of TwentyTwentyFive

Hi web-maverick

Please check this documentation page about JS functionality (in your case, it is a cart button with JS) that is not compatible with the AJAX by default, and how it can be fixed: https://filtereverything.pro/resources/ajax-instructions-only/#ajax_related_problems

Best Regards,
Victor

I am trying to debug it but so far to no avail. Although this is standard add to cart block that comes with WooCommerce by default.

Maybe someone else has already encountered this issue and general solution was found?

For instance I found this code snippet in FacetWP filtering plugin that indicates how to fix a conflict with WooCommerce:

<?php

/* * Product quantity <input> fields for add to cart forms, * generated with the woocommerce_quantity_input() function, * need re-initializing their minimum value (set in the ‘min’ attribute) after a FacetWP refresh: */

add_action( ‘facetwp_scripts’, function() { ?> <script> document.addEventListener(‘facetwp-loaded’, function() { jQuery(function($) { $(‘input.qty’).each(function() { var min = parseFloat($(this).attr(‘min’)); if (min >= 0 && parseFloat($(this).val()) < min) { $(this).val(min); } }); }); }); </script> <?php }, 100 );

?

Hi web-maverick

If this is a standard WooCommerce block and functionality, please send us the link to the exact page with the issue so we can check it. And define the roots of this functionality.

Hi, it’s local development. But you can easily re-create the issue by:

1) Installing WordPress + WooCommerce + TwentyTwentyFive (Block theme). No other installation is required

2) Enabling WooCommerce AJAX for Add to Cart in “WooCommerce -> Settings -> Products: Enable AJAX add to cart buttons on archives

3) Place your Filters shortcode in Product Archive and enable AJAX in your plugins settings too.

This default setup follows the following structure of a webpage (simplified):

<main class=”wp-block-group” id=”wp-skip-link-target”> some other stuff inserted by woocommerce or 3rd party plugins/themes

product collection block from woocommerce

<nav>pagination block from woocommerce</nav> </main>

If in FIlter Everything General settings for “HTML id or class of the Posts Container ” you put:

.wp-block-woocommerce-product-collection CSS class – then AJAX filtering for your plugin works, along with dynamic URL updates. However, woocommerce add to cart buttons stop to work.

if you try to use <main> as the container (#wp-skip-link-target), although against your recommendations in docs, then AJAX filtering for your plugin works, along with woocommerce add to cart buttons. But of course what stops to work is dynamic url updates.

A) WooCommerce Product Collection Block as container for filtering:

https://nimb.ws/4GfhVXk https://nimb.ws/3uUf0dg

Webpage <main> tag as container for filtering:

https://nimb.ws/2UTIv5F https://nimb.ws/lJpqb7Q

It’s a local development but you can easily recreate the issue by:

1) Fresh install of WordPress + WooCommerce + TwentyTwentyFive Block theme.

2) Enabling AJAX add to cart button functionality in WooCommerce Products Settings

3) Enabling AJAX in Filter Everything settings

4) Placing Filter Everything shortcode in Product Archive template

P.S. By default web pages follow this structure:

<main class=”wp-block-group” id=”wp-skip-link-target”> some other stuff inserted by woocommerce or 3rd party plugins/themes

product collection block from woocommerce

<nav>pagination block from woocommerce</nav> </main>

A ) If you define WooCommerce Product Collection block as filtering container (”.wp-block-woocommerce-product-collection”) then AJAX filtering works from your plugin, along with dynamic URL updates. However, WooCommerce add to cart block button doesn’t work.

https://nimb.ws/4GfhVXk https://nimb.ws/3uUf0dg

B ) If you define webpage <main> element as filtering container (”#wp-skip-link-target”) then AJAX filtering works from your plugin, along with WooCommerce add to cart block button. However, dynamic URL updates stop working as, of courcse, this setup is against what you suggest in your docs.

Hi web-maverick

We have managed to recreate this behavior by following your instructions and have passed it on to the development team. Once we receive updates from them, we will let you know immediately.

Best Regards,
Victor

Thank you for your reply.

So it means there is no ETA?

There are no exact dates, as a list of tasks is in progress with a queue, so the timeline depends on how quickly the items ahead of this one are completed.

Maybe it will be included in the next update.

Best Regards,
Victor

Any updates on this breaking feature with WooCommerce – #1 plugin that is used with Filter Everything plugin?

Hi web-maverick

The development team has checked this issue, and it is not related to WooCommerce itself; it is related to the Gutenberg/FSE theme functionality. They are using Preact with React, etc., on the front for those elements, so the development team is currently checking how this can be addressed, either on the plugin side or in general, as it is quite complicated to find the exact source where those specific events are applied and how to reinitialize them to make it work without any issues.

Best Regards,
Victor

Thank you for your clarification. I understand the depth of issue and hopefully it can be resolved soon. As disabling AJAX leads to more server load

Hi Ryan

You can create filters from the category taxonomy or place filters on the category pages. Both options work fine. The main key here is the filter prefix, which keeps the filters unique.

To reset filters, please use the Chips widget or a chips shortcode. Please check this page: https://filtereverything.pro/resources/chips-widget/ and the page with shortcodes: https://filtereverything.pro/resources/shortcodes/

Best Regards,
Victor

Hi Victor, thanks for your reply. Yes, I did think that it could cause problems if I tried to mirror the filter prefixes with the exact ones WooCommerce uses, they obviously need to be unique. I was just wondering what links I could use if I had menu structure with all my categories in?

The chips Elementor widget works fine but I can’t find an option for making the lozenge buttons display horizontally?

Perhaps you don’t even need a category filter on category pages. If you have physical category pages with the links to them on your site, you can use the Woo Product Categories widget to display all the links. This way, users can simply navigate across the categories by clicking on those category pages from the widget and have all of the other filters on the category pages. Perhaps only on the main shop page you can add a separate filter set with the product categories. In order to filter everything on the same page, as you need.

Could you please clarify what exactly you mean by “lozenge buttons”? Could you send the link to the page with those buttons so we can check them?

Best Regards,
Victor

Hi Victor, thanks for getting back to me. By lozenges, I mean the ‘Chips widget’ and the rounded buttons it adds when you add filters (Here: https://postimg.cc/mPLpspPp). I’d like them horizontal rather than vertical. Thanks, Ryan

Hi nutvokvanya

Thank you for choosing Filter Everything PRO.

Please note that the CodeCanyon purchase key and license key are two different things.

Please use incognito mode in your browser during this process!

In order to get 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.

Best Regards,
Victor

Hello! With the free version of the Filter Everything plugin, filters were displayed correctly on the site and filtered the products as expected. After activating the PRO version, the filters have disappeared – there is just empty space where they should be (although in Elementor editor they are still present). Could you please advise what might be the issue and how to fix it?

Thank you!

Hi helenbriggs

Hmm, this is something new we haven’t seen before. Could you please send the credentials to the WP-admin dashboard following this document so we can check it?

Also, please share the link to the page where this error is appearing so we can test it there.

Best Regards,
Victor

Hi Victor

I’ve sent the details you’ve requested and a screenprint of the error message.

Let me know if there is anything else you need.

Best regards Helen

We have added it to the development list so the team can review it and potentially provide a fix. When we get any information related to this, we’ll let you know right away in this comment thread.

Best Regards,
Victor

Hi helenbriggs

We have received information from the development team with a potential fix for this issue.

If you know how to do it, you can go to content/plugins/filter-everything-pro/src/RequestParser.php, approximately line 133 (the exact line may differ), and change only this part:

$queriedValues  = explode( FLRT_QUERY_TERMS_SEPARATOR, $values );

To this code:

if ( is_array( $values ) ) {
            $queriedValues = $values;
        } elseif ( is_string( $values ) ) {
            $queriedValues = explode( FLRT_QUERY_TERMS_SEPARATOR, $values );
        } else {
            $queriedValues = [];
        }

If you do not know how to do it, we can try to add it ourselves, but in case of any issues, such as a fatal error, we do not have access to the files (FTP) to fix it. It would be better if you could make the change in a controlled way and, if something goes wrong, restore it to the previous value.

Victor

Hi countryimages

It’s on the development list to expand this feature and add it to different views, such as radio buttons, etc. This will allow selecting only one category at a time.

Additionally, you can use AND logic for filtering in the category filter, so it will display products that have all the selected terms applied to them.

For example, if you choose red and blue, it will display only the products that have both categories assigned. Other products that have only red or only blue will not be displayed. This can help with parent and child selection to display only the desired products.

As for automatically opening the hierarchy when selecting the parent category, it can be added to the development list and implemented in future updates. You can also experiment with custom coding or open them by default using the wpc_hierarchy_opened hook with your own code to achieve this. (The code below only displays the hook itself:):

/**
 * @return mixed|void
 * @since 1.7.1
 */
function flrt_hierarchy_opened() {
    return apply_filters( 'wpc_hierarchy_opened', [] );
}

Best Regards,
Victor

Hi Victor,

Thanks for your reply. I’m quite disappointed that this feature isn’t already available as it seems like quite a simple request for a hierarchical system.

All I want is for people to be able to click on a parent category and for it to expand to show all the categories/products within it which they can then select. I don’t even want the check boxes in the first place. Is there really no way to simply have it so that is possible?

Thanks,

Michael

Hi Michael

We’d love to help, but unfortunately, as a support team, we can only provide assistance for the functionality included in the plugin. We do not provide custom code for extending the plugin’s current functionality, as it falls outside the scope of the support policy.

What we can do is add the request to the development list and wait until it is implemented.

If there is a need to expand certain features, this can only be done through experimental custom coding on the user’s side to fit a specific case or feature that is not yet included in the plugin’s functionality.

Theoretically, you can write a JS code that checks and applies the required open or closed classes to the relevant items when certain checkboxes are toggled. However, it should also be synchronized with the filtering functionality.

Best Regards,
Victor

Hi atenasventilacion

Thank you for choosing Filter Everything PRO.

This error is not related to the “937” line error.

It’s a bit more complex and is most likely caused by a situation where one of the entities used for filters was deleted, but the filters created from that entity remained in place.

The fastest way to resolve this is to delete the plugin from the admin dashboard, which will also remove all filters and their related data. After that, you can reinstall the plugin, and the error should no longer appear, as the corrupted filter entity data will be gone.

In 1.9.2 update (not released yet), there is a fix for this issue. It’s quite complex, so it couldn’t be resolved with just a single line of code.

Best Regards,
Victor

What happens if we do that with the saved filters (there are many of them)? Aren’t we at risk of losing them? The error occurred after copying, modifying, and saving an existing filter. Is there any way to make a backup of the saved filters before applying any fix?

Hi atenasventilacion

Yes, you will lose your filters; that’s the unfortunate part of it.

The ability to import/export filters is only included in the upcoming 1.9.2 update.

We can try to apply an emergency fix to make it “partially working.” It will prevent any fatal errors, though some warnings may still appear. These warnings won’t affect the filtering functionality but might be logged in the debug file.

You can send the credentials to the wp-admin dashboard following this document so we can apply this quick fix.

Best Regards,
Victor

I’m going to send you the access credentials because we need to make sure we don’t lose those filters, we spent days setting them up. Thanks.

Yes, since you’ve spent so much time creating them, deleting all and creating new ones is quite inconvenient. When you send the credentials, please let us know here in this comment thread.

Best Regards,
Victor

Message with the access details has been sent, thank you.

We have added the temporary fix to the plugin and activated it, it seems like everything is working. The issue is most likely in those filters: https://prnt.sc/07NuEZXXLeXB

Either some entities were deleted, as we mentioned earlier, or something else has happened.

Best Regards,
Victor

Hi Tarquin

Yes, we remember this case. You can send the link to the page with the issue so that we can check it. Most likely, you need to specify another ID or class on some pages, directly in the filter set settings.

Best Regards,
Victor

Hi Victor, Thank you for your reply. I considered the solution may be something as you mention, however did not want to mess around as I was unsure as to what you had done from your end.

The simplest page you can view it on (although it seems to be on all) is https://dev2025.dreambeds.co.za/product-category/stock/beds-mattresses/ but is also a challenge on other pages such as here https://dev2025.dreambeds.co.za/product-category/stock/home-furniture/

I am assuming they will likely all have the same solution.

Thank you again for your assistance, and please let me know if you need anything further.

Regards, Tarquin

So you can add the custom class via builder since it is used for category pages: https://prnt.sc/L_BKV4poZ0q1

We just added that primary as ID, so it will be the same across those pages. It should work now, please check it.

Best Regards,
Victor

Thank you very much Victor. Great support as before.I also understand a bit more about the function, thank you very much.

Regards, Tarquin

Yeah, basically, the AJAX functionality requires a container with a class or ID to update the data via AJAX during filtering. Since the page doesn’t have such an ID or class, it’s displaying the error that it cannot find it.

Learning all of this at once, especially when page builders are involved, can be a bit tedious. However, once it becomes clear how everything works, it is quite easy to maintain.

Best Regards,
Victor
