## Description

Filterive for WooCommerce adds a product filter to your WooCommerce shop, category
and tag pages. Customers can narrow products by category, product attribute and 
price range, either from a slide-in panel with a floating button or from an inline
filter placed in your sidebar (widget or `[wcaf_filters]` shortcode).

**Features**

 * Slide-in filter panel with overlay, or inline sidebar mode
 * Category filtering with subcategory support
 * Product attribute filtering (OR within an attribute, AND across attributes)
 * Price range slider that adapts to the products on the page
 * Keyword search box that filters products by name
 * Active-filter badges that can be removed with one click
 * Optional AJAX live filtering — update products without reloading the page
 * Optional SEO-friendly URLs (history.pushState) for shareable filtered views
 * Color/appearance customizer (CSS custom properties)
 * Exclude individual categories or attributes from the filter (admin settings)
 * Per-category “hide in filter” toggle and attribute-to-category auto-redirect
 * Works with internationalised (non-Latin) attribute slugs
 * Accessible markup (ARIA roles, keyboard close, focus handling)
 * Fully translatable (POT file included; ships with a Ukrainian translation)

The plugin uses only WordPress core and WooCommerce APIs. It loads no scripts, styles
or data from third-party servers.

#### Filter modes

 * **Floating panel** — a button on shop/category/tag pages opens a slide-in panel.
 * **Inline / sidebar** — disable the panel and the filter is injected into your
   theme’s sidebar, or place it yourself with the **Filterive for WooCommerce** 
   widget or the `[wcaf_filters]` shortcode.

## Installation

 1. Upload the `filterive-for-woocommerce` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`, or install
    the plugin through the **Plugins** screen in WordPress.
 2. Activate the plugin through the **Plugins** screen.
 3. Make sure WooCommerce is installed and active.
 4. Configure the plugin under **WooCommerce  Advanced Filters**.

## FAQ

### Does this plugin require WooCommerce?

Yes. Filterive for WooCommerce extends WooCommerce shop, category and tag pages 
and does nothing without it. An admin notice is shown if WooCommerce is not active.

### How do I show the filter in my sidebar instead of as a slide-in panel?

Turn off **Enable Filter Panel** under **WooCommerce  Advanced Filters  General**,
then either add the **Filterive for WooCommerce** widget to a sidebar or place the`[
wcaf_filters]` shortcode in a page or block. You can also set a sidebar CSS selector
under the **Sidebar** tab for automatic injection.

### Can I hide a specific category or attribute from the filter?

Yes. Use the **Categories** and **Attributes** tabs on the settings screen, or the
per-category “Hide in Filter Panel” toggle on the category edit screen.

### Is the plugin translation-ready?

Yes. All user-facing strings use the `filterive-for-woocommerce` text domain and
a POT template is included in `/languages`. A Ukrainian (uk_UA) translation ships
with the plugin.

### 󠀁[Exactly the filtering my shop needed](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/exactly-the-filtering-my-shop-needed/)󠁿

Clean, fast product filtering that just works. Setup took a couple of minutes — 
categories, attributes, price range, and now stock availability all filter smoothly.
I turned on AJAX mode so the product grid updates without a page reload, and the
SEO-friendly URLs make filtered views shareable. The Appearance tab let me match
the colors to my theme without touching code. Lightweight and no upsell nagging.
Highly recommended. Thanks
