Blog Article Filter Search PRO

This blog filter app is very helpful! Since Shopify doesn’t support any useful way to navigate blogs, I was looking for a solution that would help my customers find the information they needed. I looked at a lot of possible apps, but this was the only app that did what I wanted!

Using this app, I was able to organize my blog articles into “buckets” of the same content topics and then create filters for my users to find the specific information they want in that topic “bucket”. For example, I use topic buckets such as Guides & How-To’s, Holidays, Birthstones… and more. Within each topic, I’ve set up my blog filter dropdowns to narrow the content. E.g, under Birthstones, they can specifically choose “May’s Birthstone”. Even better, with this app’s filters, the user can choose multiple topic dropdowns to filter all the content down to what they are looking for.

This is a huge help once you have a lot of articles, as Shopify gives no help at all with blog navigation.

The other thing I like is that the filter is based on the standard blog tags - so I didn’t have to do anything special for this app to work. No hidden tags or other app-specific workarounds. That was important to me, as I don’t have time to re-do everything for an app-specific solution.

I also want to give a big THANKS to the app developer(s)!
They helped me customize their filter to match my site’s branding. I also found a couple of issues/UI requests after using the app - those were quickly fixed. I appreciate that they listened to my ideas on what would improve the app’s user experience and made those changes.

Note I am using the filter part of the app, not the search functionality. Unfortunately, Shopify’s search API only allows the developers to search the blog titles, not the text of the blog. This means that searches don’t work well, since blog titles don’t have the words the user would search for. I’m disappointed that Shopify’s API works this way. Until that is fixed I am not going to use the search functionality of this app.

Thanks for the great app!

Worked perfectly upon installation. Ran into a bug that Choong jumped on right away and fixed within 3 hours. Highly recommend! Simple, intuitive, easy to use, good price point, looks and functions nicely, the list goes on! Thank you!

Very good experience! Easy to use and they helped me get everything to look nice plus another thing I needed help with. Stellar app and service.
