Hide filter if there’s only one filter/product

    Hi!
    I have a Problem with your Plugin on the posted webpage.
    If I filter products with your filter, I come to a point where only one product is shown. And if that’s the case, in my understanding, there shouldn’t be a Price Filter.
    Try it: filter in “Marke”: “Directions”.
    There is another thing:
    If you filter “Directions” only one Product is showing and under “Haartyp” one Filter is shown “Alle Haartypen” – which is not necessary since there’s only one product and nothing to filter any more.
    Is it possible to change that in the settings?
    Or take it into your list for future changes? I am sure this confuses many.
    Thank you!

    Hi,

    “I am sure this confuses many” – why? Your client filtering products to the single one. All he need is to open that product and purchase. What sense to continue filtering at all?

    I think you is overcomplicating it.

    Plus you are missing situations when adding next filter could add products. When admins are using categories/tags only for all filters.

    Hi!
    Thank you for your answer. Currently I am not sure if you understood my Problem.

    You are right, if there is only one Product left, there is no need to continue filtering.
    Which is why I and my clients find it unnecessary (and some confusing) that there is still the “Alle Haartypen” beneath “Haartyp” Filter left, which – if chosen – would not change a thing.
    If it was not there (because it has only one Filter, which changes nothing when chosen, bc there is only one product), and I would choose another Brand, then there would be more Products, and also Products with different “Haartypen” to filter.
    Same with Price: if there is only one Product, there is only one Price, and so the Price Filter is unnecessary.

    I could solve it with javascript: if only one Filter-Attribute is showing i would hide the whole Filter. And if there is only one Product, I would hide the Price Filter.
    But I thought maybe this was easier if there was a just an option for that in the backend.

    Hi,

    I understand the problem. You want to hide filter if there is only one value available.

    I’m adding this to the feature-requests list. If you can solve it with javascript do it. We have important features in the list that will take time. So your feature will be presented in the near releases.
