Super Speedy Filters

Large sites make it hard for visitors to find what they came for. Posts, products and other content pile up, and plain search often returns too much. Super Speedy Filters gives you filters built around your own content types, categories and tags, so people can narrow results step by step. Results update in a live preview as criteria change, which removes unnecessary page reloads.

Site administrators build and edit filters with a drag-and-drop builder, so no coding is needed. The plugin uses caching and indexing to keep server load in check, and its layout works on desktop, tablet and mobile. It also handles multilingual sites: filter widgets under WPML and Polylang list only the terms for the language being viewed, and SEO titles and meta descriptions can be translated per language. Multi-language support and RTL compatibility are included.

Features

• Drag-and-drop filter builder: Create and change filters visually, without writing code. Site administrators can adjust the filter setup as the content on the site grows or changes.
• Custom filter criteria: Tailor filters to your own content types, categories and tags, so the options visitors see match how your site is actually organized.
• Real-time search preview: Visitors see filtered results instantly as they refine their criteria, without waiting for a full page reload each time.
• Caching and indexing: Smart caching and indexing help manage server load, which matters on busy sites with a lot of content to filter.
• Responsive filtering: Filters are designed to work on desktop, tablet and mobile, so visitors get the same filtering experience on any screen.
• WPML and Polylang support: Filter widgets list only the terms and counts for the language being viewed, and widget caching varies by language under both WPML and Polylang.
• Translatable SEO wording: SEO titles and meta descriptions, including prefix, suffix, separator and connectors, can be translated in WPML String Translation or Polylang Strings, and overrides can be set per language.
• Analytics dashboard: A dashboard tracks how filters are used, so you can see usage patterns and adjust how your content is presented.
