Possible Bug + Request: Listing AJAX Filtering Widget

    On the main search page, I can filter results from custom fields but only once I select a category. However, if I’m viewing a category, I can’t seem to filter results from custom fields in category view. For example:

    If I’m on the search page, and select a category, I can then filter results from default fields such as by rating and by tag. I can also filter results from custom field values. However, if I’m inside a single category view, I can’t filter results from custom fields (only default ones such as by rating and tag). Is this a bug or normal behavior?

    Also, a feature request:

    Can you add a feature to Directorist – an AJAX filtering mechanism to the search sidebar widget that allows custom filtering/searching of number-type custom fields?

    For example: website owner has credit card listings on their website and needs to be able to filter results using sliders from custom fields such as APR, Credit Level, Annual fee, etc.

    Hi,
    We’ve tested the issue, filtering custom field data from single category view is working fine, you can check it from our demo site https://aazztech.com/demos/plugins/directorist/demo-one/

    Adding AJAX filtering feature is already in our plan, hopefully you will see it in future updates.

    Cool, but it’s not working on my installation. How can I fix?

    I noticed ‘Category’ has to be checked under ‘Listings Page’ > ‘Filter Fields’ in order for the custom fields to be filterable.

    However, I’m confused as to how the demo doesn’t require you to select a category before it shows the custom fields; my installation requires me to select a category first. Which, if I’m viewing a current category, this should be auto-populated so when a user clicks “Filter” they can see all the custom fields to filter through rather than having to select the current category first.
