Append search parameters to URL when filtering

[KingGrizzly]

I have a pressing need with JetFilters which three clients all require currently. The need is to append filter parameters to the page URL as filters are selected.

As an example: mysite.com/page would show something like mysite.com/page?make=car-type when a filter is tabbed on. See a working demo here: https://facetwp.com/demo/cars/ and click on checkboxes at right to see what happens - especially with multiple selections.

This allows the client to use and share URLs with pre-selected filters. If I'm a car salesman and want to show a person all of the used, red, Honda Acura's my dealership has, I could select the relevant filters and then share the URL with a potential car buyer.

Similarly, a school could handle a list of courses or school faculty this way. A counselor might want to send a parent or student a page with the Freshman Math teachers pre-selected.

This need is pressing enough, I'll have to chose a different solution if JetFilters can't do this. Which is frustrating, because the Jet family is so much easier to use (especially with Elementor) than other solutions.

Are these types of parameters possible? Thanks.

Thank you for your question. You can use the "Apply Type" select and choose "Page Reload" instead "AJAX", which default value for this settings https://prnt.sc/n3k77e

@shinTM I am wanting to use select boxes to build up a filter and after clicking apply (using page reload) it navigates to another page i.e. the results page from the homepage. Is there a way to do this?

thanks

@andrewkirkcaldy, Hi! I think this is what you need.

Wow, I cannot state how much I need this solution as well for an e-commerce website. The "page reload" does not work, as I need to manually click on the Apply button. Is there a way to overcome this?

A good documentation would help to figure out which parameters can be sent, even if AJAX is selected.
