Elementor/Woocommerce ajax search conflict on category pages

[Ghislain09]

Hi,
I’m having difficulties with the filtering on product category pages. I have checkmarks for category selection and some textbox for custom fields created with Metabox.io.

I made a videos showing the problem i’m facing: https://www.loom.com/share/fbcb104fb0414097a9e570ff058e3c26

Basically, I can make the live ajax filter work on both the “all products” archive page and the product category archive pages.

Thank you.

Hi,

Filtering category or other taxonomy archive pages is not possible. The filter feature only works either on a single page, with the products widget, or on the search results page.

Hi Ernest, thanks for the quick reply.

I actually made it work by using the Elementor Archive widget instead of the Posts widget. Now the filtering is working on all archive and category pages.

That is actually a great solution. They must have added support for the posts/products widgets to work on archive pages, I didn’t know that until now 🙂
