Using filter everything widget on Variations Theme

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hey guys, so I am a first-time WordPress user with pretty much self-teaching on how it works. I tried to use a specific plugin, which is called Filter Everything. I managed to set up the plugin itself, but I am having big issues integrating it into my website. I don’t have the widget option, which I would need to be able to add it. I assume it’s because of the theme I am using, which is called Variations. I am also using WooCommerce. I’d be happy if anybody could.

    Hi @gardendeliciously8666e7cca1,

    Welcome to WordPress! The Variations theme is a block-based theme, which doesn’t use traditional widgets. That’s why you can’t find the widget option.

    How to add Filter Everything to your site:

    Option 1: Use a Shortcode Block

    1. Go to Appearance → Editor
    2. Edit the template where you want filters (Shop page, Archive, etc.)
    3. Add a Shortcode block
    4. Insert the Filter Everything shortcode (check plugin settings for the shortcode)

    Option 2: Custom HTML Block

    1. Go to Appearance → Editor
    2. Add a Custom HTML block
    3. Insert the plugin’s HTML/shortcode

    Option 3: Check Plugin Documentation Filter Everything should have block support. Check their docs for:

    • Block-based integration
    • WooCommerce setup guide

    Important: Make sure you’re on a Business or Commerce plan – that’s required for WooCommerce and third-party plugins on WordPress.com.

    Filter Everything docs: Check the plugin’s documentation for block theme compatibility.

    WooCommerce guide: https://wordpress.com/support/woocommerce/

    Let me know if you need help finding the shortcode!
