Is this possible ? (filters like this site)

Hi!
Please check this website and tell me if its possible to create filters from characteristics and categories. Whan you choose a category it give you less filtrs, and less an less util you find what you want.

Hi,

Yes, it's possible with the "dynamic filter" option of the filters of HikaShop:
www.hikashop.com/en/support/documentatio...-filter-listing.html

Ok. Thanks!
Styling can be done like this ----> www.inshoes.gr/index.php?dispatch=catego...view&category_id=395
left modules

I guess.
The filters will be displayed as one module, but you can probably style them enough to look like several modules if you're skilled enough in CSS.

You can see a really basic HikaShop filter module at the bottom of the demo website:
demo.hikashop.com/index.php?lang=en

the documentation is not sufficient to understand how to implement these. please elaborate and expand and show some examples with screenshots of config settings in documentation.

thanks

Thank you for your feedback.

We'll look at improving that documentation page as well as others in the future.

Please do that. Because I can t figure it out how to create those filters

i'm quite sure you need the business edition of hikashop to get access to the module for filtering.

yes , I have it

That's not difficult really.

Create a new filter of the type list and apply on on the characteristic/custom product field on which you want to filter, publish it and save.

Once you have all your filters created like that, publish the HikaShop filter Module on the left position and enter the id of your products listing menu in the "menu" option of the module.

As explained in the documentation, you will probably want to remove the filters displayed at the top of the products listing with a line of CSS.

That's it.

If you have troubles, please do screenshots of your filters/module options and give a link to the page so that we can see that.

I made it. Its a good piece of Software Nicolas!

it would be good to have proper examples of how to setup filters. the current documentation is extremely difficult to understand and doesnt really explain how to setup different scenarios.

can you also do an example of a clothes shop and some general filters (with screenshots) of setting up filters for that.

That's a good idea. We'll see what we can do.

Hi Nicolas,
Hope you are well.

Trying to create a customers site...

I'm having a problem getting the filters working, have created a filter, have set the hikashop filter module to the ID of the default products listing, and set the filter for it to use...when a value is entered in the filter and the enter key pressed, it just doesn't seem to go anywhere...any ideas, all the modules etc are published...

version 2.0 of Hikashop Business on the latest version of joomla...2.5.7

Many Thanks

Ian

Ian
