Hi there :) !
Because the “Searching by Text” extension of Woof Filter doesn’t work for me: I search tomato, it says potato, I search potato, it says tomato… I decided to use another plugin for text search: Advanced Woo Search, which works perfectly on my site.
For text searching AWS is fine, but for price and categories I still need to use Woof.
Unfortunately, both plugins don’t work in harmony, and due to the fact that AJAX doesn’t seems to work on my site, the shop page is reloaded with both filters’ query active, and of course this leads to conflicts.
So I was wondering if there is a way to clear all queries from the URL before doing the plugin search? I mean, some kind of preventative restart by using WordPress or WooCommerce hooks to avoid mixing up these two plugin queries.
Kind regards.
Hello
Because the “Searching by Text” extension of Woof Filter doesn’t work for me - very strange! you can try to add in functions.php:
add_filter('woof_text_search_like_option', function() { return TRUE; });
Then the text filter will start working according to the same logic as a regular text search(AWS)
Can you drop me exact link to the issue?
Hi Pablo, thanks for supporting :) .
I tried the add_filter option, but it doesn't seem to work.
Woof Text search related: I detected that Woof Text performs the first search as expected, but the next time I try to search, it shows the first search instead of the new one. Let's say I searched for"T-shirts" the first time and"Leggings" the second time, the filter always shows T-shirts. It's like the search string stays in a"virtual cache" or something. The first search works only if I configure the products grid with certain parameters. Let me explain:
The site uses the WooLentor template builder to customize WooCommerce. I've noticed that depending on the options I choose in the product grid (Order, AND, IN, NOT IN), Woof works slightly differently. Sometimes it says that the query has no results even though the products exist in WooCommerce.
Also, I checked WooLentor's native text search filter and it works fine, but of course not with other Woof filters like price or categories search. Woolentor's search uses a search string like this:"?q=leggings", while Woof uses one like this:"?swoof=1&woof_text=leggings". I think that's the problem here.
Another thing is that sometimes breadcrumbs show"shop/shop" when they should show something like"shop/woman/leggings". If I disable"Woof influence" this works as intended... until I try to use Woof with Advanced Woo Search. If I try to do this, the breadcrumbs show"shop/shop" and the filters don't work properly. If you reset the filters at this point, the breadcrumbs will show"shop/women/leggings" again. It's crazy.
Regarding the link, this is a production site, not to be public at this time, sorry. Is there a way to let you check it privately?
Regards.
Hello
It's like the search string stays in a"virtual cache" or something. - Yes it looks like a conflict with a third party caching plugin
Of course, when third-party plugins change the query in the data base, this causes incorrect behavior.

Hi Pablo, I just sent you the link privately :) .
As you will see, the site is in Spanish, so if you are not comfortable with this language, use"leggings" to search ;) .
The site uses WP-Optimize and Autoptimize caching plugins, but even with these two disabled, the problem persists.
It would be great to have the option to remove any previous search strings in the URL before the filtering. I'm pretty sure it should solve the problem.
Regards.
Hello
Ok!
I'm pretty sure it should solve the problem. - I don't think this is a good solution to the problem. Describe in more detail, you want to remove the WOOF search term if there is a text search term - Right?
Hi Pablo, thanks for supporting :) !
Please check the URL I sent privately. You will see two text search fields. White is the WOOF text search field. If you try to make some possible combinations of a search with WOOF (text, price, categories), at some point you should get unwanted results. Same or similar issues occurs with AWS (the blue text search field).
you want to remove the WOOF search term if there is a text search term - Right? - Right, I think it could be a possible solution to the unwanted results.
I know that this option would make text queries partially useless, because they couldn't be combined with searches by price or category, but I think it's better to have partial results than wrong ones.
Thanks again.
Regards.
Hello
Try in file - wp-content\plugins\woocommerce-products-filter\index.php - add code - https://share.pluginus.net/image/i20220524100030.png
if (isset($_GET['post_type']) && isset($_GET['s']) && isset($_GET['type_aws'])){
$_GET = array(
'post_type' => $_GET['post_type'],
's' => $_GET['s'],
'type_aws' => $_GET['type_aws'],
);
}
we have also started testing a new version of the plugin. In the new version there will be a completely new text filter, maybe this will help you
Hi Pablo, thanks for your support :) !
Unfortunately, the new code did not solve all the issues. I'm now testing a new search plugin for text filtering, FiboSearch, and it seems to work 100% with WOOF.
I'm checking this on a test site. I've left the URL privately so you can check it out if you want.
Anyway, I'll be waiting for your new version with the new text filter, perhaps it solves my issues :) . Is there an approximate release date?
Kind regards.
Hello
Is there an approximate release date? - Release should be next week. But unfortunately we don't make it. I think one more week
Ok Pablo, I'll keep an eye on the update :) .
Thanks for supporting.
Kind regards.
Welcome;)
