'All Product Categories' searches not working as expected

    I’m having a problem with Search & Filter using woocommerce.

    In Woocommerce I have my categories set up and a ‘designer’ attribute for the clothing designers name (there are only two designers at the moment). I’m using the following code:

    [searchandfilter fields="product_cat,pa_designer" types="menu,checkbox" operators=",or,and" ]

    When selecting a category from the dropdown menu and one of the names it works as expected. If I select a category without selecting a designer it brings all the products back as a result – fine.

    However, if I leave the category as ‘All Product Categories’ with no designers selected, instead of returning everything I get a ‘No content matched your criteria’.

    If I do this again but select just one of the two designers it gets a ‘404 Page not found’.

    If I do it again but this time select both designers it brings all the results.

    So, everything works as expected when a category is chosen but not when the category is left as ‘All Product Categories’.

    Any idea what the problem is?

    Hey mozdt ?? After trying some things out today it looks like its a bit more complicated than I thought and requires a good few changes to the core of the way the plugin works…

    Sooooo… I’m not going to include support for woocommerce at this stage as its heading in a bit of a different direction and potentially adds a lot of extra support work from myself if I include it (from the forums, and keeping up with woocommerce changes).

    I will include it at some stage although this might not be for a while!

    Thanks for your feedback on this ??

    That’s fine, I understand. I’ll just rename the parent category to ‘Select a designer’, ‘Select a category’ etc which should do the trick in this instance.

    Thanks for taking the time to look into it, its most appreciated. ??
