sf_edit_query_args is ignored when the Clear Filters link is clicked

I have couple of issues
See this page
https://acu2020dev.wpengine.com/story
I have created a page template and added the shortcodes

echo do_shortcode('[searchandfilter id="133"]');
echo do_shortcode('[searchandfilter id="133" show="results"]');

I am showing a featured post first and then I am showing the listing
As I dont want to show the featured post I added the following code

function filter_function_name( $query_args, $sfid ) {
  //echo "Coming here";

  //if search form ID = 225, the do something with this query
  if($sfid==133)
  {
    //modify $query_args here before returning it
    if (is_page_template('page-templates/stories.php')) {
        //echo "This is ".get_queried_object_id();
        $featured_story = get_field("featured_story_landingpage",get_queried_object_id());
        $exclude = array($featured_story->ID);
        $query_args['post__not_in'] = $exclude;
    }
  }

  return $query_args;
}

add_filter( 'sf_edit_query_args', 'filter_function_name', 20, 2 );

This works alright when the page is loaded, but when I click the Clear filter button or when a category is selected, the above exclusion is ignored and the featured post is shown in the listing
What am I doing wrong? or is this a bug in the plugin?
Also how can I show a numbered pagination?
regards

Hi Michael

The issue is, in an Ajax request, your test for is_page_template will not work.

So when you search, an ajax request is sent here:
https://acu2020dev.wpengine.com/?sfid=133&sf_action=get_data&sf_data=results&_sft_category=covid-assistance

is_page_template I’m assuming will return false, because the data is no longer part of the parent page.

Does that make sense?

OK will try and let you know
Will get_queried_object_id() work?

I feel get_queried_object_id also does not work
So what can I do to resolve this?
I hope you understand what I am trying to do

Is there anyway to get that ?

Hi Michael

I’m wondering, if you only show the search results on https://acu2020dev.wpengine.com/story/

Why do you need to check the template? Can you not just use the $sfid and leave out the template code?

Currently it’s quite hard to pass variables through to that ajax request – but a way around it is to use another display method (like custom) and create your own new WP_Query in your template, this display method does not do ajax requests like the shortcode method (it reload the current page, in the background, which would mean your variables etc would work).

Let me know your thoughts.

Thanks

I Have this same issue.

This works fine on the initial load, but when “clear all filters” via AJAX, the query arg change is not respected.

function sf_filter_query_args( $query_args, $sfid ) {
		if(!is_library()) {
			return false;
		}
		
		$tax_count = false;
		
		$querystring = false;
		
		
		if(isset($_SERVER) && isset($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']) && !empty($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'])) {
			$querystring = $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];
			
			$querystring = removeQueryVar($querystring, 'sort_order');
			$querystring = removeQueryVar($querystring, '_sf_ppp');
			$querystring = removeQueryVar($querystring, 'sf_paged');
				
			$tax_matches = preg_match_all('(sft)', $querystring, $matches);
			$tax_count = count($matches[0]);
		}

			
			
		if((isset($_SERVER) && isset($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']) && empty($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'])) || empty($querystring) || $querystring = false) {
			$args = array(
				'posts_per_page' => -1,
				'post_type' => array('page', 'people'),
			);
			

			
			
			$myposts = get_posts( $args );		
			
			foreach($myposts as $post) {
				$posts_to_exclude[] = $post->ID;	
			}
		}
