YITH WooCommerce Ajax Product Filter [add_shortcode] Shortcode

The YITH WooCommerce Ajax Navigation shortcode is designed to render a specific preset filter. It checks if the filter is relevant and then formats the filter type. If the template doesn’t exist, it creates one.

Shortcode: [add_shortcode]

Examples and Usage

Basic example – The following shortcode is used to render the filter with the default preset.

[yith_wcan_filters filter="default" /]

Here, the ‘filter’ attribute refers to the filter to be rendered. The ‘default’ value will use the default preset set in the plugin’s settings.

Advanced examples

Displaying a filter with a custom preset. The preset will override the default settings for the filter.

[yith_wcan_filters filter="custom" preset="my_preset" /]

In this example, ‘filter’ is set to ‘custom’, which means it will use a custom filter. The ‘preset’ attribute is set to ‘my_preset’, which is the name of the preset that will be used to override the default settings.

Adding a filter without a preset. The filter will use the settings defined in the plugin’s settings.

[yith_wcan_filters filter="no_preset" /]

This example shows how to use the shortcode without a preset. The ‘filter’ attribute is set to ‘no_preset’, which means the filter will use the settings defined in the plugin’s settings.
