All filtering runs client-side on a pre-cached product array — no page reloads, no AJAX round-trips. **Features** * Zero-request filtering — filters run entirely in the browser on a cached product array. * AI natural language search — type plain-English queries to filter products. * Visual discovery — image swatch grid for colour and style filtering. * Predictive personalisation — quick picks based on browsing session. * Range histogram — price slider with distribution bars. * Drag-and-drop filter designer — build your sidebar layout in the admin. * Per-filter colour settings — customise pill colours, slider colours, and card tints independently. * WooCommerce attribute support — automatically discovers global and custom product variation attributes. * Multi-category / multi-tag — products with multiple categories and tags match all their values. ### External services FilterOrbit includes an optional AI natural-language search feature. When enabled and configured, the plugin sends product search queries and product data to third- party AI services. This feature is **opt-in** — it only activates if you enter an API key in the AI Settings screen. No data is sent without your explicit configuration. **OpenAI** * What it is: A third-party AI platform (https://openai.com). * What it is used for: Processing natural-language search queries and optionally generating product embeddings for semantic search (RAG). * What data is sent: The user’s search query text, and (when indexing is enabled) product titles, descriptions, categories, tags, and attributes. * When data is sent: Only when a visitor submits a natural-language search and AI is enabled and configured with a valid API key. * Terms of service: https://openai.com/policies/terms-of-use * Privacy policy: https://openai.com/policies/privacy-policy **Google Gemini** * What it is: A third-party AI platform provided by Google (https://ai.google.dev). * What it is used for: An alternative AI provider for natural-language query processing and product embeddings. * What data is sent: The user’s search query text, and (when indexing is enabled) product titles, descriptions, categories, tags, and attributes. * When data is sent: Only when a visitor submits a natural-language search and AI is enabled and configured with a valid Gemini API key. * Terms of service: https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/terms * Privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy If you do not enter any API keys in the AI Settings screen, no data is ever transmitted to these services. ### Source code The compiled JavaScript assets (`assets/admin/filter-orbit-admin.js` and `assets/ frontend/filter-orbit.js`) are built from human-readable React/TypeScript source files.

FilterOrbit requires WooCommerce to be active. ### Does filtering require AJAX calls? No. All product data is pre-loaded on page render and filtering runs entirely in the browser with zero network requests. ### Can I customise the colours? Yes. Each filter block has independent colour settings in the Block Settings panel of the filter designer. Slider filters, pill/category filters, and layout blocks each expose the colour controls that are relevant to them. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “FilterOrbit: Advanced Product Filters for WooCommerce” is open source software.
