Hi, I am wondering if anyone has been able to create multi-dimensional shopping filters for customers?
I.e. Generate a drop down list that allows the customer to View products by Brand, By Price, OR By Item Category.
That is faceted search. Not something you can accomplish in webflow without a third party product integration. I built an integration with https://www.algolia.com/ on a client site (not webflow) that does just that.
Hey @parkerwest - Although MixitUp is great, I was able to accomplish what I was looking for without MixitUp by using categories and sorting the collection list with conditions.
I realize you may be handling a larger amount of categories, but I wanted to mention this in case you are looking for a workaround on a smaller project.
Thank you so much for this. I have looked into this method is well which is a great way to sort content but I was looking for multi dimensionality similar to this. I appreciate this though, I will keep in mind for future projects!
@parkerwest - What you are looking for is not a current feature. So the only way to pull that off is with a third party solution and custom code. Algolia.com comes to mind.
I’m actually looking into that right now funny enough. Thanks for the direction. I saw that https://swiftype.com has something similar that can be embedded, but I’m looking now to see if you can choose what they index on the site to create the filters and facets for.
@AmandaR Did you manage to do that for Products in an ecommerce site? Or just a collection?
If so could you go more in details of what needs to be done to make this work?
I’m also looking to have a way to make this happen without using external plugins.
Hey John, so you got those steps right. Sorry, I think I skipped a step … I made this page a while ago.
Step 2.5. On the page you would like the list - add a collection list wrapper, and you can source the collection list & items from your Ecommerce shop.
Next, you would add the list and the links by creating a collection list. This is where you would follow step 3 from my last post and add the link conditions for the links.
