Does it work on wp archive pages without widget and no Elementor, woocomerge etc. If yes how?

Hi, I want to setup jet smart filters in a way that it gets the filter values from one custom post's field & search that value in another custom post.
How can i do that?

And if I want to show only current category options? Not Music and Hoodies together.

Excellent Paul!! This is a more economic bundle of plugins for a dynamic website (like Real Estate, Tourism, Hotels), than let's say FacetWP, Dynamic Content, (correct me if I'm wrong here). Thanksk again and keep up all this GREAT work you do for us..!!!

how do you put quantities in front of categories in check boxes ?

I using this for Real Estate site and the filters veryyyyyyyy veeeeeeryyyyyy slooooooow. Any tip?

i learnt both filtering from you. thanks

It should be noted that these filters won't work if you are using Ele Custom Skins and the Posts widget and then outputting products, well not that I have found a way to get it to work yet. They are great filters though if you use Crocblock or other product grids it works with.

Hello, does anyone know how to add buttons to take you to different categories?

Hi Bro... I love your tutorials!. They are to the point & easy to understand. Here is one request... Please make a tutorial for making a e commerce website using jet woo builder & jet engine for a customized music store... where I can attach a small piece of music as my products.

That video was a great help, thanks. It saved me hours of trying to figure it out myself

Doesnt work with jets own widget for posts nor elementor posts, not even pro

Thank you so much for another great tutorial video, @WPTuts! The filter block at the left hand side showed up automatically in your video, but this is not the case for my product archive page made with Elementor custom skin. Do you happen to know how to fix this? Thank you so much!

You mate, are a genius. Great to hear, and see, someone with a regional English accent give clear and concise help. So tried of hyper active youngsters trying to blind everyone with their knowledge. Or a video with a silly tune playing and no voice overs. Worth being locked down for :)

Is JetSmart Filter just compatible with JetWoo Builder?
For some reason the filter is not connecting with woocommerce and does not show any results.

can somebody help?

For some reason, I can NOT get it to work... I don't know what I am doing wrong. I created a default archive page, created the filters, imported them. NOTHING happens. Help, anyone?

Excellent..!!

thank you for everything could you please help me how to add smart filter as select for my variables products because i can get the option to show product for example for colors and sizes separately thanks again

JetSmartFilters supports hierarchy from version 1.6.0 beta. How it is possible that you had hierarchical categories 9 month ago ?

Can you make a video tutorial on how to use smart filters with advanced custom fields please? Thank you very much!

Hello! Is there a way to make the checkbox filters "restrictive". I mean, if I have Age and Gender, with one selected of each, limit the results rather than showing the sum of the selected ones. Thanks!

Wondering if anyone has figured out a way to create a reset button for this? :-D

can this be used with acf and elementor ?

I know there's Facet WP in that universe also, but because of its price I would give Jet filter a try. The support told me In combination with ACF it could get problems using checkboxes. Any issues known here so far?

Hi I try use JetSmartFilters to filter posts taxonomy, but I can't, I don't have jet engine, only jetfilter and Elementor pro, there are a trick ? with WooCommerce works fine.

How to choose two and more checkboxes to filter? Not just one

Good morning, i need to create a filter of 3 sections: Province, city and community. When I select the Province that enables me only the cities of that Province, when I select the City that enables me the communities of that city, and as long as this happens, I will filter the companies or services that are in those areas. How can I do it?

Paul, Will you show guide with JetFilter 2? With possibility to ajax filter multiple pages?

Very good tutorial. Using Smart Filters can I limit the user to select only one option (checkbox)?

Hello, how can i separate products to be filtered for different cities, Example: I enter to the page of Province A, but Province A has 6 Cities, i want to see the products only in one city, the same if i go to the page of Province B that has 13 cities, i want to see the products only in the cities i select. How can i do that?

Keep up the good work!

I bought it and it doesn't work completely. The headline of this video is broad .. like in WordPress and name of the plugin says for elementor .. Great... plugin might work around woocomerce but you should rewrite your headline honestly.. cuz its misleading .. noobs in Wordpress think they can filter anything in elementor AT LEAST basics as posts .. or some custom advanced data ... but it doesn't work.

This is awesome! Do you know if we can use the search filter to provide results for "Product Name" only? Thanks!

Hi WPTuts, can you use this plugin to filter posttypes in archives? Or do you suggest a better plugin for this solution?

Great video. Instead of a hard product, I want to use it to filter services from golf clubs who have social group tee times and competitions tee times available. I created the availability as meta fields, maybe i should have created them as categories. The availability isnt a specific date, just the days of the week and the general times they have open for visitors.

You saved my day Thank you so much.

I want to see the jet Smart Filters with Post.
With Woocommerce is easy. LOL

Thank you

Hi Paul.. thanks for this video which I am rewatching....JetSmartFilters seems to be able to only show search results from one specified category or tag instead of multiple taxonomies. I am creating a site that has property listings so JetSmartFilters may not work so well...do you know any search plugin or solution at all whereby visitors can search by location, number of bedrooms, and price? Many thanks as always!

Thank you!

great video
