Price Filter

Hi,

Thank you very much for the details, I hope I understood everything correctly.

1. The .htaccess problem
That happens, when there is either an incorrectly set mod_rewrite redirection rule in the .htaccess file, or there is different rewrite rule in effect – it can be set by a plugin, or maybe the general permalink structure is incorrectly set.
The issue is triggered, whenever the ajax handler cannot be accessed. This issue is unfortunately very hard to debug.
– First, I suggest checking the https://yoursite.com/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php URL. Copy and paste that to the browser, obviously change the yoursite.com to your domain, and see what comes up. The results should be a white page with either 0 or -1 printed to it. If it’s not, then there is a rewrite rule defined somewhere.
– Then check if the site URL is set correctly across the WordPress back-end, usually www and non-www versions of the site are the problem – it should be the same everywhere.

2. Well, this is only possible via custom coding. Dynamically updating/conditional filters are not yet implemented. Probably using a single price filter, and then changing the price filter key based on the selection (via a custom code) is the easiest solution.

Hi,

1. That looks like the default .htaccess file to me, so it should be all right. There might be an different rewrite rule then, that is not within the .htaccess defined.
What do you see when you open the https://yoursite.com/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php URL? (change yoursite.com to your website address of course)

2. Usually I recommend a ready-to-use custom code if I can, but this more complicated than that. I would definitely start with this. (at the start of that page, you can see how that hook is accessed) That variable allows you to access the post meta filters, right before the search starts. You can loop through them, check the values, change the values etc..
So, I would try to loop through the filters, find the value of the selected pricing type, and then based on that, find the price filter, and change it’s key to the desired price key.

I have quickly made a sample code, that could be a very good start:

add_filter("asp_query_args", "asp_query_args_change_pricing", 10, 2);
function asp_query_args_change_pricing($args, $search_id) {
	// Pricing "type" meta key
	$pricing_type = "pricing_type";
	
	// The default price meta field key
	$price_key = "hourly_fees";
	
	// The pricing type to price meta field key resolution
	$price_array = array(
		// Value of the pricing_type meta field => key of the price field
		"hourly" => "hourly _fees",
		"weekly" => "weekly_fees,
		"monthly" => "monthly_fees"
	);
	$value = '';
  
	// 1. Get the pricing type value
	forach ( $args['post_meta_filter'] as &filter ) {
		if ( $filter['key'] == $pricing_type ) {
			$value = $filter['value'];
			break;
		}
	}
	
	// 2. Change the price field key, based on the pricint type value
	if ( $value != '' ) {
		forach ( $args['post_meta_filter'] as $k => &filter ) {
			if ( $filter['key'] == $price_key && isset($price_array[$value]) ) {
				$args['post_meta_filter'][$k]['key'] = $price_array[$value];
			}
		}
	}
	
	return $args;
}
