FacetWP – Submit button 0.4

Overview

FacetWP - Submit Button is a powerful add-on designed to enhance the user experience when using FacetWP filters on WordPress websites. It allows site owners to place filter facets on one page—such as a homepage or landing page—and then redirect users to a separate results page when applying the filters. This setup is particularly beneficial for websites that want to keep the filtering interface clean and focused, while directing visitors to a dedicated page that displays the filtered content or listings in a well-organized manner.

What makes the Submit Button add-on uniquely valuable is its ability to seamlessly pass the selected filter data from the initial page to the results page without losing any user choices. This preserves the filtering context and ensures visitors find exactly what they’re searching for efficiently. The add-on is ideal for complex directory sites, e-commerce stores, recipe collections, or any dynamic content listings where smooth navigation between filter selection and results display is critical. By enabling manual control over filter application, FacetWP - Submit Button also gives developers and site managers more flexibility to customize behavior beyond FacetWP’s default auto-refresh functionality.
