[wordpress] How to filter WooCommerce products by custom attribute

I'm trying to filter WooCommerce product archive by custom attributes.

For example, there are 5 products with attribute "color" containing "red", and another 3 with attribute "color" containing "blue".

How can I apply a filter to the products loop, so only the products containing "red" will be shown?

Thanks

The answer is


You can use the WooCommerce Layered Nav widget, which allows you to use different sets of attributes as filters for products. Here's the "official" description:

Shows a custom attribute in a widget which lets you narrow down the list of products when viewing product categories.

If you look into plugins/woocommerce/widgets/widget-layered_nav.php, you can see the way it operates with the attributes in order to set filters. The URL then looks like this:

http://yoursite.com/shop/?filtering=1&filter_min-kvadratura=181&filter_max-kvadratura=108&filter_obem-ohlajdane=111

... and the digits are actually the id-s of the different attribute values, that you want to set.


You can use WooCommerce AJAX Product Filter. You can also watch how the plugin is used for product filtering.

A plugin is probably your best option. Look in the wordpress plugins directory or google to see if you can find one. I found the one below and that seemed to work perfect.
