Search and Filter not working on Attribute Archive pages

Hi Trevor/Ross,

I updated from I’ve updated from WooCommerce 3.2.6 to 3.3.1 and immediately after doing so, my product attribute pages no longer show any of my variable products. Originally I thought this was a bug in WooCommerce 3.3.1, but as it turns out it seems to be related to Search and Filter Pro. As soon as I disable Search and Filter Pro the products appear as intended on the attribute archive pages, but of course without the search and filter pro showing, which is otherwise set in a widget sidebar for all Woocommerce shop and archive pages. (I’m running Search and Filter Pro 2.4.0, but it also occurs for 2.3.4).

Simple product products work fine, however the issue occurs as soon as I change to a Variable product, at which point they no longer show on the attributes archive page.

Please advise on how this issue can be resolved – the website is heavily dependant on the attribute archive pages showing variable products in the filter results, and we’re presenting to the client early next week, so hoping this can be resolved in good time for then.

Are there any known issues with WoCommerce 3.3.1 attribute archive pages not showing variable products when integrating with Search and Filter Pro? Could be the same issue ashere? I’ll send the necessary details to access the site in a follow up response very shortly.

Hi Trevor/Ross,

I think I’ve resolved the issue! I had the Variations option unticked for Search in the following post types – do Variable products only appear in the results if this is ticked?

That may well be the case. Does it now work for you?

Hi Trevor,

Yep that seems to work thanks. I think I also possibly tried enabling ‘Variations’ previously, but hadn’t waited for the cache to be rebuilt.
