I think I may be looking for the same thing, if I understand the original post correctly. I have a content type with a few taxonomies, and have set up filters on a particular page to search among them. Works great.

Elsewhere on the site, I want to set up the same search filters, but I want the possible search results to be restricted to those where a particular value in a particular custom taxonomy is selected. I think this is the same as Branimir’s goal to restrict results to a particular product category.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Hey both please see this thread:

https://support.searchandfilter.com/forums/topic/excluded-categories-on-specific-forms/

Does this look like what you are trying to achieve? The code from that thread is below (just add to functions.php):

function modify_search_filter_query( $query )
{
    global $sf_form_data;
	global $wp_query;
	
    if ( $sf_form_data->is_valid_form() && $query->is_main_query() && !is_admin())
    {
		
		if($sf_form_data->form_id()==12) //where the form ID is 12
		{
			//modify the query for a form with id 12
			$query->set( 'cat', '-2' );
		}
		else if($sf_form_data->form_id()==99) //where the form ID is 99
		{
			//modify the query for a form with id 99
			$query->set( 'cat', '-20' );
		}
		
    }
}
add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'modify_search_filter_query', 21 );

You can get the ID of the form by looking at the URL in the edit screen (when editing your S&F form)

http://www.yoursite.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=797&action=edit

In this case it would be 797.

Hope that helps 🙂
