Meta Key Value Keeps Resetting

Hi there,

I’m trying to replicate the filter on http://hillscoachsales.com/coach-sales/minibus/2008-toyota-optimo-v-21-seats/ using the Search & Filter Pro plugin.

I have installed WooCommerce and want to use the plugin to filter products. So far I’ve added 1 product and within the Custom Fields of the product I have added a field called “Number of Seats” and given it a value of 49.

I’ve set up a Search Form and dragged the ‘Post Meta’ field into the Search Form UI, and then within the settings, under ‘Meta Key’, I’m selecting the ‘Number of Seats’ field that I created earlier and using a Number Range Slider to filter the results. I then click Update button to save what I’ve done, however the ‘Meta Key’ keeps resetting itself and doesn’t save as the ‘Number of Seats’ option which I keep setting it as.

Any ideas what I’m doing wrong?

Many thanks!
John

Hey John

This was a known issue – basically if your meta key had spaces in it the plugin wouldn’t play nice.. To be honest its not a great idea but if WP allows it then so should this plugin..

I’ve just emailed you an update with the fix for this in it 🙂

Let me know.

Thanks
