Hi. I created some custom fields (as drop down or advanced date picker) and i wish create filter for those fields.
I suppose that i can create filter as checkbox or radio button for dropdown custom fields. The problem is that user see only "all" option and not the name of the values of the custom fields to filter the results.
And second question: about advanced date picker what kind of filter do you suggest?

I attach the settings of the filter.
Best regards

Hi,

1. With the "dynamic display" activated, the filter will only display the values selected in the products displaying on the current products listing. Turn off that setting and it will display all the values you entered in the custom field.

2. The filtering system is not adapted to dates. The date system in custom fields was added after the filtering system was added to HikaShop. So I would recommend to break the date into three dropdown custom fields for the year, month,day selection and have three filters in them so that it would then do something usable.

Ok i disabled the dynamic display and this fixed the problem about check box filter. Now i see all the filter options. But about filter per author (single drop down) still i get the issue. I continue to see only "all" and not the name of the authors.
Another question please: is there a way to create filter per TAG? Maybe single drop down field where user select the tag and filter the product per that value?


I attach the settings of author filter.

Hi,

1. Can you provide a screenshot of the settings of your custom field "autore" ?

2. No the tag system is actually the one of Joomla and HikaShop plugs into it. It is not suited to filter through tags because of the way it's done. I would recommend to use categories or a custom field instead of tags in that case.

Hi,

A text field doesn't have any values. So that's why it displays like that.
You should either make it a dropdown/radio/checkbox with the different values, or change the filter to be a text as well.
