Hello,

I have read a lot of internet page about my problem but can not fix it :

In wp-admin, when I go to the menu Woocommerce -> settings -> Product filter, I can see all existing attributes I have created but by default :

  • the type is"Radio"
  • the attribute is not selected so it is not display
  • the settings"Show title label" in attribute parameters window is set to false.

As I have a lot of attributes, my question is : how can I programmatically customise settings set in WooCommerce -> Products Filter -> Structure

 

Thank you for your answer.

Regards,

Hello

Please  read  this - https://products-filter.com/lot-taxonomies-settings-page-save-options-doesn-works

To change settings in code you can use this variable

woof()->settings

Thank you for your answer but I am still stuck.

This settings is global to woof plugins. Is it possible to programmatically set type"dropdown" instead of"Radio" for one taxonomy ? or set"Show title label" to true for a specific taxonomy ?

In other hand I can not call woof() method as it is not loaded : i got"Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function woof()" : which file should i load ?

Hello : I 've made a step, but did not find a solution.

To answer my own question :

  1. The woof()->settings contains all taxonomy.
  2. I can load the plugin file so WOOF is defined.

I execute this code to change tye taxonomy pa_ef000001 form type radio to type checkbox

require_once(ABSPATH . '/wp-content/plugins/woocommerce-products-filter/index.php');
$WOOF = new WOOF();
$WOOF->settings['tax_type']['pa_ef000001'] = 'checkbox';
error_log(json_encode($WOOF->settings));

But my change is not saved : if I go back in wp-admin interface my taxonomy 'pa_ef000001' is always of type radio.

Thank you for your help

Hello

Yes, it will not work because you changed the settings in your object

In other hand I can not call woof() method as it is not loaded  - Ok! This may mean that you call the method very early (before the object is created). Try using hooks. An  example:

add_action('init', function(){

woof()->settings['tax_type']['pa_ef000001'] = 'checkbox';

}, 9999);

Hello,

Here is my working solution :

// import required file from plugin woof
require_once(WP_PLUGIN_DIR . '/woocommerce-products-filter/index.php');

$attribute ="SLUG_OF_ATTRIBUTE_TO_UPDATE";
$WOOF = new WOOF();
// Change type
$WOOF->settings['tax_type']['pa_'.$attribute] = 'checkbox';
// save options
update_option('woof_settings', $WOOF->settings);
