## Beschrijving

ITG Filter Easy is the best free WooCommerce product filter widget for Elementor
that makes shopping easier than ever. It works as a **sidebar filter** — it helps
your customers narrow down WooCommerce products by category, price, brand, and more,
all without reloading the page. Everything updates smoothly and instantly, just 
like on top online stores.

This is the best free WooCommerce filtering tool for any online store built with
Elementor, giving you premium features at zero cost.

**Smart currency conversion with live central bank exchange rates** — as a store
owner, you can enter product prices in the brand’s original currency, while your
customers always see prices in your store’s main WooCommerce currency. ITG Filter
Easy automatically converts all prices using real-time exchange rates from central
banks around the world. You never have to manually update conversion rates — the
plugin does it for you, ensuring accurate and fair pricing in your store’s currency
at all times. Perfect for stores that carry products from international brands.

Best of all — it’s 100% free. No hidden fees, no premium upgrades, no subscriptions.
Just a powerful filter that helps your customers find what they’re looking for faster.

**Key features:**

 * Filter products by categories, size, color, brand, price range, stock availability,
   sale items, or simple text search
 * Products update instantly as customers select filters — no waiting, no page refresh
 * Show live product counts next to each filter option so shoppers know what’s available
 * Beautiful price sliders and range selectors for a smooth shopping experience
 * Smart currency conversion — if you sell products in different brand currencies,
   prices are automatically converted to your store’s main currency
 * Filters apply automatically — no need to click a “Apply” button
 * Works with 5 languages out of the box: Russian, German, French, Spanish, and 
   Chinese
 * Designed to work seamlessly with most WordPress themes
 * Easy to set up — just add the widget to your sidebar and you’re ready to go

### What changed in this version

 * Fixed incorrect attribute groups appearing on category pages when those terms
   were not actually assigned to products in the current category archive.
 * Scoped faceted count queries to the current product category and active archive,
   preventing unrelated attributes from remaining visible in the widget.
 * Improved category detection by falling back to the URL slug when the queried 
   taxonomy object is not available yet during archive rendering.
 * Hardened input sanitization and request parsing to satisfy WordPress security
   checks and reduce false-positive warnings.
 * Cleaned up query-layer SQL handling for dynamic joins and filtered counts without
   changing plugin behavior.
 * Removed frontend debug output and related temporary hooks used during diagnostics.
 * Updated plugin metadata and readme consistency to align with Plugin Check recommendations
   and WordPress.org compatibility checks.

## Installatie

 1. Upload the `itg-filter-easy` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory.
 2. Activate the plugin through the **Plugins** menu in WordPress.
 3. Go to **WooCommerce  ITG Filter** to configure the filter structure and options.
 4. In Elementor, drag the **ITG Filter Easy** widget into the sidebar of your shop
    page template.
 5. In the widget settings, set the **Products selector** — the CSS selector of the
    WooCommerce Products widget container (default: `.elementor-widget-woocommerce-
    products`).

## FAQ

### Does this plugin output products?

No. It only filters the output of an existing WooCommerce Products widget placed
on the same page. Add a WooCommerce Products widget to your Elementor template first,
then add ITG Filter Easy to the sidebar.

### What CSS selector should I use?

The default selector `.elementor-widget-woocommerce-products` works for most setups.
If you have multiple product widgets on the page, use a more specific selector (
e.g. add a custom CSS class to the widget wrapper in Elementor).

### Does it work without Elementor?

No. The widget is built for Elementor. Elementor (free version) is required.

### Is WooCommerce required?

Yes. WooCommerce 7.0 or later is required.

### How do I add a translation?

Copy `languages/itg-filter-easy.pot`, translate it with Poedit, and save as `itg-
filter-easy-{locale}.po`. Compile to `.mo` in the same folder.

## Changelog

#### 1.7.8

 * Added: support for category-scoped faceted counts so filters stay aligned with
   the current product category archive.
 * Added: smarter archive detection from the current URL slug when the queried taxonomy
   object is not ready during page render.
 * Added: improved empty-filter handling to suppress non-relevant attribute groups
   and keep the sidebar cleaner for customers.
 * Improved: sanitization and request parsing for filter parameters used in the 
   frontend and admin settings flow.
 * Improved: query-layer stability for dynamic taxonomy joins and faceted product
   count calculations.
 * Fixed: attribute options that were not assigned to products in the current category
   no longer remained visible in widget filters.

#### 1.7.7

 * Added: numeric range filters for product attributes — attributes with numeric-
   like terms can now render as dual-range sliders (examples: pressure, power, weight,
   size).
 * Added: robust numeric parsing that understands both comma and dot decimal separators(
   12,5, 7.5, mixed formats), trims surrounding text/units, and extracts values 
   from real-world term labels.
 * Fixed: slider precision and layout for decimal ranges — dynamic step calculation
   ensures values like 7.5 map to the slider extremes and the selected-range fill
   renders correctly (price and attribute sliders now match visually).
 * Fixed: slider state persistence — range values chosen by the user persist across
   AJAX product reloads and browser navigation (Back/Forward).
 * Improved: URL & archive sync — widget now recognises external archive filters(
   category, brand and common tag patterns) and reflects active terms on initial
   page load as well as after AJAX updates.
 * Improved: smart hiding of empty filters — attribute groups with 0 or 1 available
   options are hidden on the frontend to reduce noise; server-side faceted counts
   drive this behavior.
 * Misc: removed debug logging from production, tightened numeric input handling,
   and several small frontend & query-layer bug fixes for more reliable filtering.
