i set Including sub categories to yes as you can see in the picture but it is not display product in subcategories...

it seems a bug, because i set that in your demo but not work correctly in your demo site when i select an option in the left filter module...

Hi,

The first "category" setting of the filter allows you to restrict the display of the filter to only the selected categories.
And if you activate the "include sub categories" setting below, then the filter will also display for the sub categories.
However, the filter itself will only display the products directly linked to the selected category.
There is no option in category filters to allow the display of products of subcategories of the selected category.

Hi,

In that case, you would have to modify the file administrator/components/com_hikashop/classes/filter.php
In it, you'll find the function addFilter with such code:

Code:

if($filter->filter_data=='category'){
			if(!($infoGet[0] == $filter->filter_namekey && count($infoGet) == 1)){
				$categoriesList='';
				foreach($infoGet as $cat){
					if($cat == $filter->filter_namekey || (int)$cat == 0)
						continue;

					if(is_numeric($cat)){
						$categoriesList.=(int)$cat.',';
					}elseif(is_string($cat)){
						$cat = explode('::',$cat);
						foreach($cat as $selectedCategory){
							$selectedCategory = trim($selectedCategory);
							if(!empty($selectedCategory))
								$categoriesList.=(int)$selectedCategory.',';
						}
					}
				}
				if(!empty($categoriesList)){
					$categoriesList=substr($categoriesList,0,-1);

					$table = 'a';
					if($a=='#__hikashop_product AS b'){
						$table = 'b';
					}elseif($a[0]!='(' && strpos($a,') AS b') && preg_match('#hikashop_product AS ([a-z0-9_]+)#i',$a,$matches)){
						$table = $matches[1];
					}
					$filter->filter_namekey = str_replace('-', '_', $filter->filter_namekey);
					$on.=' INNER JOIN '.hikashop_table('product_category').' AS '.$filter->filter_namekey.$i.' ON '.$filter->filter_namekey.$i.'.product_id='.$table.'.product_id AND '.$filter->filter_namekey.$i.'.category_id IN ('.$categoriesList.')';
				}
			}
		}

So you'll want to load the child categories of the categories in the array $categoriesList and add their ids to that array before the INNER JOIN is constructed.
And if you want to make it as an override, you can create a system plugin to load a copy of the modified file after HikaShop is loaded, before HikaShop has to load the filter class (you could load it in onAfterRoute for example).
