FacetWP – Hierarchy Select

FacetWP – Hierarchy Select Add-on extends the functionality of the FacetWP WordPress filtering plugin by introducing a hierarchical dropdown filtering system. This addon allows visitors to filter content through guided dropdown menus that follow the structure of hierarchical taxonomies such as categories or product categories.

First, the addon displays a sequence of dropdown menus that represent different levels of a hierarchy. For example, a user may first select a parent category, then choose a subcategory from the next dropdown. As a result, visitors can refine search results step by step while navigating large content structures.

In addition, the FacetWP Hierarchy Select Add-on pulls data directly from hierarchical taxonomies configured in WordPress. These taxonomies may include post categories, WooCommerce product categories, or custom taxonomies created by plugins or themes. Therefore, the filtering system reflects the same structure used to organize website content.

Furthermore, the addon allows administrators to configure multiple dropdown levels depending on the depth of the taxonomy. Each dropdown represents a specific hierarchy level, which helps users navigate complex content directories or product catalogs more efficiently.

Finally, the addon integrates with the FacetWP AJAX filtering engine. When a visitor selects an option in the hierarchy dropdown, the system updates the listing results instantly without refreshing the page. This functionality improves the browsing experience and makes filtering faster for users.
