Hi guys!

I’d like to display results based on selected Tag in the same way I do based on Categories.

Right now, if I click a Tag from the dropdown, it will show no results.

If I type a Tag name inside the String search, it will display results but this is confusing for my visitors.

Is there anything I could do to fix this behavior?

Thank you!

Hey Peter

It looks like something in your setup is interfering with your results – the tag dropdown should work fine….

In S&F, can you check the “tags, categories and taxonomies” tab, and clear any settings there, and also clear everything in the “post meta” tab – then test again?

Thanks

Hi Ross,

Unfortunately I tried but that didn’t worked.

I can’t filter any results by Tags and I’m not sure what’s wrong.

Hi Peter

It looks like something may be interfering with the S&F query.

Can you:

1) Rebuild the cache
2) try disabling your other plugins temporarily to see if that helps
3) Try switching themes (or in another environment, with your theme, and a WP one)

It seems like there might be a pre_get_posts somewhere modifying the S&F query in relation to tags – so ensure you have no custom code that is being greedy with modifying queries.

Thanks

Hi Ross, I managed to fix it, the problem was on our end.

I had to recreate a custom taxonomy for my custom post type and the filters started showing results.

Thank you! This plugin is fantastic!
