Show child categories only when selected

Hi!,
i have a shop with categories like this:

PC -> cpu
PC -> ram
Peripheral -> Printers
Peripheral -> Scanners

with the “Hide childs in checkboxes and radio” on Yes there’s a way to show children categories only from the selected parent category when i land directly to a page like this /shop/?swoof=1&product_cat=printers ?
Now if i land on /shop/?swoof=1&product_cat=printers in categories filter i only see the parents (PC and Peripheral)
If i put “Hide childs in checkboxes and radio” on No the list would be too long

Thank you very much, your plugin is awesome

Hello

Sorry I did not understand your question.

Filter show only children categories on category pages. This case URL is product-category/printers

Sorry,
I will use https://demo.products-filter.com for the next example.

When i enter this page https://demo.products-filter.com/?swoof=1&product_cat=man
I would like to see the parent category “Clothings” already opened under the “Product categories” filter so the selected category is visible.

i prefer to use https://demo.products-filter.com/?swoof=1&product_cat=man instead of https://demo.products-filter.com/product-category/clothing/ to link to category because i want the user to roam the entire shop all the time.

Thanks!

Edit: I know there’s an option (“Hide childs in checkboxes and radio” on No) to show all the child but it would be too long for my shop.

Thanks for your reply

Changing the .js didn’t modify the behaviour.

The child list is visible only if it was selected before

for example if i go to:
https://demo.products-filter.com/?swoof=1&product_cat=man
- the child categories are hidden
- i click on the plus sign
- refresh the page
- now child categories are visible
Thanks

Sorry for the delay.
I made a little script that find if there’s the class checked and open the category list.
It would be great if this plugin will implement this feature in the next releases.
Thanks again
