What Is JetSmart Filters?
JetSmart Filters is developed by JET Plugins and is a ecommerce plugin for WordPress. It is widely recognized as a core component of the Crocoblock suite for building complex dynamic websites. It belongs to the ecommerce category on WPExclusive, alongside other tools for developers building online stores and real estate portals.
The plugin solves the problem of slow, standard WordPress search results by using AJAX technology to update content live as users select criteria. It is designed for developers who need to implement high-performance product grids and search interfaces for large catalogs.
JetSmart Filters Features
JetSmartFilters provides a comprehensive toolkit for building multi-layered search hierarchies and specific filtering widgets.
Advanced AJAX Filter Variations
JetSmartFilters includes seven diverse filter types such as select, checkboxes, radio buttons, color and visual attributes, and date ranges. These can be applied to WooCommerce products or custom post types found in ecommerce listings. The indexing feature calculates the count of items for each filter option dynamically, providing users with immediate feedback on available results.
Deep WooCommerce Integration
The plugin allows for precise filtering by brand, price, user ratings, material, color, and size. Developers can create hierarchical category filters that show relative paths, helping users navigate complex taxomomies. It also includes an active tags feature, letting visitors see exactly which parameters are currently narrowing their view and allowing them to remove them with a single click.
Multi-Builder Compatibility
While originally popular within the Elementor ecosystem, JetSmartFilters maintains full support for the Gutenberg block editor, Bricks, and Divi. It includes a built-in Style Manager that allows for detailed aesthetic customization of filter blocks directly within the builder interface. This ensures that the search components match the brand design without requiring extensive custom CSS.
Performance and Navigation
Beyond simple filtering, the plugin provides AJAX pagination to segment results and improve initial page load speed. The inbuilt query builder allows for hyper-precise output matching for PHP, ACF, Pods, and MetaBox sources. This performance-first approach reduces server load while ensuring the user remains engaged on the shop page.
Pricing
Retail pricing begins at $26 per year for a single site license. Alternatively, it is included in the All-Inclusive Crocoblock subscription for $199 per year. Check current pricing on the JetSmartFilters sales page — WPExclusive members access it as part of their plan.
