Ultra-modern faceted search and filtering for WordPress + WooCommerce — built by SHEPDESIGN.

The promise: sub-50ms filter queries on 100k+ product catalogs, paired with UI inventions legacy faceting plugins don't ship, and an admin where a non-PHP developer can define and place facets without touching code.

Features

• 16 facet types — checkbox, radio, dropdown, toggle, hierarchy, range, date range, search, fluid swatches, swipe deck, spin-the-wheel, intersection (Venn/UpSet) matrix, saved comparison bin, AI natural-language ask, visual (color) DNA, and numbered pagination.
• Fast resolver — a narrow-EAV index resolved with a MySQL INTERSECT engine; AND-across-facets, with per-facet OR or AND (any/all) matching.
• Custom-field sources — one-click facet suggestions from WooCommerce, ACF, Meta Box, and Pods.
• Page-builder bridges — Gutenberg, Elementor, Bricks, Breakdance, and Divi.
• Multisite-ready — per-blog index and options, network-aware lifecycle.

Requirements

• WordPress 6.4+
• PHP 8.2+
• MySQL 8.0.31+ (the resolver uses INTERSECT)
