Filter Product by Rating in WooCommerce

The Dynamic AJAX Product Filters plugin allows you to filter products by customer ratings in WooCommerce. Here’s a step-by-step guide to setting up rating filters, including customization options for the rating widget.

Step 1: Collect Customer Reviews

  1. Encourage Customer Reviews:
    • Before setting up the rating filter, make sure to collect reviews from customers. You can encourage them through email follow-ups, incentives, or reminders after purchase.
  2. Ensure Ratings are Visible:
    • Verify that customer ratings are displayed on your product pages, as this will allow the rating filter to function properly.

Step 2: Manage Rating in the Filter Widget Form

  1. Access Filter Settings:
    • Go to Product Filters > Form Manage in your WordPress dashboard.
  2. Show Rating:
    • In the settings, find the Show Rating option.
    • Toggle this option on or off to control whether the rating filter appears in the widget.

Step 3: Style/Design/Customize the Rating Widget

  1. Access Form Style Settings:
    • Go to Product Filters > Form Style in your WordPress dashboard.
  2. Select Rating from Dropdown:
    • From the Select Attribute dropdown menu, choose Rating.
  3. Choose Rating Style Options:
    • Select one of the style options:
      • Rating
    • Each option provides a different way for users to interact with the rating filter.
  4. Select Suboptions:
    • Based on the style option you choose, configure the suboptions (Rating Star, Rating, Dynamic Rating) to customize the appearance and functionality of the rating widget.
  5. Save Changes:
    • After customizing the rating widget, make sure to click Save to apply your changes.

Step 4: Display the Product Filter on Your Webpage

  1. Insert Filter Shortcode:
    • Visit the page where you want to display the product filter.
    • Add the shortcode plugincy_filters to the desired location (e.g., in a page or widget).
  2. Optional Product Shortcode:
    • If you want to display products alongside the filters, you can also include the shortcode products.
  3. Customize Sidebar or Page:
    • You can add the filter shortcode to a sidebar widget or directly within a page’s content.

Once you have completed these steps, customers will be able to filter products by rating on your webpage using the Dynamic AJAX Product Filters plugin. The customizable rating widget enhances the user experience, allowing users to find highly-rated products that meet their preferences.
