Advance Settings

The Advanced Settings section allows you to configure detailed behaviors for Dynamic Ajax Product Filters, including product and pagination selectors, text messages, filter behavior, exclusions, mobile layout, cache management, and import/export options. Use this section to ensure the filters work seamlessly with your theme, shortcodes, and WooCommerce setup.


1. Selector Settings

These options define the containers and elements that the plugin interacts with:

  • Product Selector
    Enter the CSS selector for the container holding filtered products, typically .products.
  • Pagination Selector
    Enter the CSS selector for the pagination container so AJAX-based pagination works correctly, usually .woocommerce-pagination ul.page-numbers.
  • Product Shortcode Selector
    Enter the selector for WooCommerce product shortcodes used on pages, for example products.

2. Text Manage

Customize the text messages displayed in filters:

  • No Products Message
    Text shown when a filter returns zero products. Typically, it reads: No products were found matching your selection.
  • Select2 Dropdown Placeholder
    Placeholder text displayed inside Select2 dropdown filters, usually: Select Options.

3. Product & Filter Behavior

Control how filters handle products and default selections:

  • Remove Out of Stock Product
    Enable this option to remove out-of-stock products from filter results.
  • Make Default Options Selected
    Enable this option to automatically select the default values set via shortcodes or pages.

Tip:
After making changes to selectors or filter behavior, clear the cache to ensure the updates are reflected. Consider exporting your settings before resetting the plugin to defaults.
