Keyless Fob Store review for Shopify Search & Discovery
April 3, 2023
I downloaded the app and was impressed with its user-friendly interface. It's so intuitive that I would even be willing to pay for it. However, there is a significant flaw in the filtering feature that renders it useless for our needs. The problem lies in the static nature of the filters. For instance, if I select 'Brown' under the 'Color' filter and 'L' under the 'Size' filter, the app returns 'nothing found.' This is because the filters are not dynamically linked, meaning that the app does not take into account the relationship between the two filters. It would be great if the app could have a dynamic filter behavior where choosing values from different filters wouldn't result in the frustrating 'nothing found' message. For example, it would be helpful if selecting 'Brown' would automatically eliminate 'L' from the 'Size' filter, preventing users from encountering a dead end. Overall, the app has great potential, but the filter issue needs to be addressed to make it more practical for users. I hope the developers can implement a dynamic filter behavior soon.
Thank you for the review - happy to hear you find the app so useful! Regarding your request for filters to be dynamically linked: It is already possible for Shopify themes to show how many results a filter will return before it is applied, and those counts are updated as customers apply additional filters. If your theme isn't already taking advantage of this feature already, we recommend contacting your theme's developer for assistance on implementing it. You can test this feature on your own store by downloading any of Shopify's free themes and previewing it in your store as an unpublished theme.
