taxonomy filter given no results

[bousso]

my friend , I have one thing I can´t fix. I have the “menu vestuario” this is one search for clothes , I want to only search in some category of woocommerce , so I go to “advanced options-exclude results- Include post s – then I select “one term “of woocommerce categories taxonomy , now I have “vestuario” and I have like 12 dresses on that woocommerce category , it gives no result.

Is multisite and the categories are the same on all sites.

Hi,

On a multisite it is not possible to filter via categories, because the categories (terms) are actually not the same – they all have different IDs on each site.

Because there is nothing in the ‘vestuario’ product category on the current site, the plugin returns 0 results: http://i.imgur.com/ApSfHjw.png

so plugin serach on categories id no in cateeriest meta value right? so If can make all sites categories to be same id it should work?

Yes, because posts (and post objects) are connected to categories via IDs only. It is not possible to make a relation only based on category names or titles, because category names can be duplicates – therefore it is not distinctive.
