    Hi!

    We are creating a filter that we plan to use is many pages, but it will be the same.

    It is possible to apply the template URL that applies to any page we add the code.

    On the other side, we have two pages. Ie: /destinations/ and /destinations/argentina/. In the second one the filter works perfectly, but in the first one it won’t work, it just show “Nothing found” message.

    Another question: it is possible to set filter as default for certain pages? For example in Argentina we would like to pre-check Argentina and bring that content.

    For your records, we are using Elementor.
    Thanks,
    Carlos

    If you are searching a single Post Type, and if you have Elementor Pro, you could use the Post Type Archive method together with our extension for Elementor and the Elementor Post Archives widget. The extension can be downloaded from the guide page (if you are logged in, it is a blue button at the top of the page):

    https://searchandfilter.com/documentation/3rd-party/elementor/

    This combination does not require a Results URL, and you can also enable it to stay in the taxonomy pages of that post type.

    Any taxonomy you want to autodetect must be a field in the form (you can, if you wish, hide that taxonomy field using custom CSS). Then these two settings must be ON:

    1. Set autodetect category/taxonomy:

    2. And also set ‘Enable filtering on Taxonomy Archives’:

    Hi Trevor!

    Thanks for your message!

    Sadly we are using the taxonomies in a different way: we don’t use Archive because we need to have a custom taxonomy, so we create each landing page for each taxonomy we have, which anyway is something we want to do because we optimize each page.

    So the “archive” are Pages we create manually. We need to see the results URL due to this or is there a fix to use the same form for all of these pages?

    Thanks,
    Carlos

    Whilst this may change in V3 (due in a few months), for now you will need one form per page, yes.
