Similar to this discussion thread:https://pluginus.net/support/topic/filter-drop-down-from-year-make-model-drive/#postid-13764

In terms of product categories and attributes, I was wondering how I would go about filtering all products by year, make and model. I want to know how I can limit certain product attributes based on the vehicle make that's chosen. For example, If I choose"Ford Transit" on my website and move on to choose product"wheelbase & Height", I would want limited options to show up in terms of what's relevant to"Ford Transit". Below is my website. This would be easier if all products only had one specific vehicle type and wheelbase but sadly they do not.

This works for specific instances where there's only one vehicle attribute attached to the specific product. For example, If I take this part on this page: https://comvan.com/shop-van-equipment/n5-rs72-4/ - it matches with:

Ford Transit130” Wheelbase | Medium Roof2014 - 2020
Ford Transit148” Wheelbase (Extended Body) | High Roof2014 - 2020
Ford Transit148” Wheelbase (Regular Body) | High Roof2014 - 2020
Ford Transit148” Wheelbase | Medium Roof2014 - 2020
Mercedes-Benz Sprinter144” Wheelbase | High Roof2007 - 2020
Mercedes-Benz Sprinter144” Wheelbase | Low Roof2007 - 2020
Mercedes-Benz Sprinter170” Wheelbase (Extended Body) | High Roof2007 - 2020
Mercedes-Benz Sprinter170” Wheelbase (Regular Body) | High Roof2007 - 2020
Nissan NV146” Wheelbase | High Roof2011 - 2020

 

Even though I've chosen Ford Transit, I'm still going to see other wheelbases that are specific to other vehicles. How would I go about fixing this problem? Am I going to have to switch around my categories and attributes? what would be the best course of action? Is there a way to manually input custom code to tell what combinations will show up when picking specific product attributes? Also, thanks for the continued support :)

Hello

Yes!  But this is independent of the filter. It only depends on the data structure.

In your case, you should create a hierarchy. An Example - https://c2n.me/48J3vL9.png
