generate a unique browser URL

[severcoal]

How to generate a unique browser URL based on the selected filter parameters. Users are then able to share a direct URL to filtered content or use their forward and back buttons to browse previous filter states. Also useful for SEO.
Something like:

Filter Button for: Men, Glasses, Black:
https://koehler.store/herren/mens-glasses-black

or if I change the checkbox the url changes: women, glasses, blue:
https://koehler.store/herren/women-glasses-blue

Is that possible?

Hi,

This tutorial is going to help you with that.

However to make them SEO friendly is probably very difficult or nearly impossible. You would have to construct mod_rewrite rules to translate the SEO friendly URLs to the generated URLs, which is not an easy task given this many parameters.

Hi,

I tried to check, but the search is disabled on that page now: https://i.imgur.com/LfH0xoP.png

Presetting search options via a custom URL is only working on “Categories & Taxonomy Terms” not on “Custom Fields”.

You are probably right, I can see the difference on our test servers as well.

Can you please add temporary FTP access? I would like to debug this directly, maybe I can make a correction as well.

Thank you!

I made an adjustment via SFTP, back-end did not let me unfortunately. Can you please try now? It should be very likely okay.
