Summary of this tutorial:
For this tutorial we are going to use the Search & Filter plugin which can be found here:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/search-filter
Once activated the plugin will add a new menu item that will take you to the plugin’s usage and documentation page.
It offers a shortcode with different parameters that you can either add to a specific area or add to your theme files.
Each option has its own benefits and the documentation page can certainly help with how to add each option.

may i ask,do you have to add the shortcode to every single page and post?
I don't get a search box, my page is blank. I did exactly like you did. I downloaded the plugin, I clicked on Install, I clicked on Search & Filter in the Panel and copy the [searchandfilter taxonomies="categories,post_tag"], saved the page and view the page – which is blank. What to do? I am using theme DIVI with the latest version of WordPress. Hope to hear from you soon… Bee
Is there a way to filter content (images) to be displayed on a site? for example i have images assigned to 3 groups (white, brown & black) When white filter is chosen, only images associated with the white group will be displayed. Thanks!
Please help anyone – when I search the plug in it says 'not tested with your version of WordPress' do I risk it or not?

hello i use this plugin but when i select a category or taxonomy it shows 404 error page with localhost only with all works?
how did you add padding to the boxes so that the text is not squished inside and also how did you make the box corners not be rounded, like the default version? I am trying to change with CSS (border-radius:0px !important for corners and padding:2% !important for space around text) but it´s not working.
Hello guys, I am struggling. How I do just display to "YEAR" on a date?
Can please tell me how to add Recently Added
, Most Popular, Last Updated filter in search result page. Thanks in advance
Thanks a lot for the tutorial.
I have a question.
How have you display the full post in your search result ?
Thanks 🙂
PLEASE HELP— I followed this tutorial and copied the same shortcode to a new page on my site but it doesn't display the filter at all. My WordPress version is up to date (5.2.3) and this is the exact type of plug-in I was looking for. Can you suggest a solution or list a similar plugin for custom post types?
Hi thank you for your tutorial. I would like to ask if it is possible that the administrator give limited access to the user. you can let user view articles that are assigned by admin? is that possible? hope to hear from you soon. Thanks
Is there a way to only filter the content within a page?
Can you do that? Filter on a single page that contains static icons, not a blog
Thanks for your video, do you know if it's possible to show only some categories instead all of them ? thanks .
