Hi Guys!

I am building a site where I need to display lot of products (Sunglasses), sorted with categories/tags (Brands are defined with tags).

The products are in Woocommerce, but I am using pages with The grid plugin to display/filter them.

I couldn’t notice this (huge) problem until I filled the grid with more products. Now I have the whole system set-up and ready for product filling but I have stuck…

This is the page where you can find the grid for all sunglasses:

The top-right filter “Odaberite svoj brend” is a drop-down filter that should display all Brands, defined by tags.

The page displays 21 products per page, and there is a pagination on the bottom, which will grow by adding new products.

The problem:

Filter is showing only the brands (Tags) that are currently found on the selected page.
When I fill more products, the same problem will happen with other filters too.

What I need:

I need to be able to filter all Tags and Categories spread across all pages, not just those that are found on the currently selected page.
This is logical functionality. Without it, it would be a faulty filter.

I hope there is some hack that can solve this. Beside the Tags, the same thing is happening with Categories.

Thank you!

Hey Misho,

Please add the code below in your Appearance > Customize > Custom > CSS

.tg-dropdown-item.tg-filter {
    display: block;
}

Hope that helps. 🙂

[Misho]

No way. That simple?

Well you have just saved my a**. 🙂

Thanks a million!

[Christian]

Yes. You’re welcome. Glad we could help. 🙂

[Misho]

Ups, sorry,

I saw those tags appearing in the drop down menu, but I haven’t tried to filter the products.

Now I have tried filtering, and products from the next page(s) are not appearing when selected.

For example, if I try to filter “Vogue” Glasses, which are currently on page 2, the Grid is empty.

I need them actually appear when filtered. Could you take a look?

2.

The same thing is happening with inline filters. As the grid builds up, categories that are not to be found on the first page are starting to disappear.

Thank you!

That is not possible in that case. The filter categories are not displayed out of the box because of this limitation. You will either need a different plugin or a custom developed feature.

Thanks.

[Misho]

Uh, ok. I hope their support will handle it if I buy the plugin. Essential grid has it’s own limitations so neither one is good enough for filtering.

Perhaps letting the Grid to display all products. Around 150. That may take some time to load…

Thanks!
