Shopify Search & Discovery

Just learning

The Availability filter does not work. For whatever reason, it displays the total product count instead of the inventory count AND it's not even recognizing variants, so it's completely useless. Outside of this app, the inventory counter is displaying correctly on the product page so obviously the problem is with this app. This availability filter code is no good.
Hand coded filters used to work on Shopify but because of this newfangled junk, they don't anymore. This app has to be enabled for ANY filter to display - so you can get hand coded filters to show up, but they will only display error msgs, because Shopify 2.0 only accepts filter content from apps. I'm not a fan of chunking out useful features into a bunch of add-ons.

UPDATE: found a source of incompatibility between this app and Shopify 2.0 free themes V 15.0. In facets.liquid, ALL filters print value.count. Value count = the number of product LISTINGS. This is only relevant to count by category, like qty of products that are t-shirts, qty of products that are hats, etc. This is entirely useless for inventory. I've managed to decouple the Availability filter from this irrelevant nonsense by using {%- if value.label contains "stock" -%}. However I've tried literally THOUSANDS of call combinations, logic, and assigns within this if clause and cannot get it to print the actual in stock inventory. I've been able to get it to print a fixed qty, or a (0), or a total product listings count, or even the total value of products in the cart. Anything but the inventory qty seems to work here. Please reply with the exact code needed for this to function properly. Thanks!!!!

UPDATE #2:
Thank you for responding but, that's honestly not an adequate solution whatsoever. As you pointed out, IT WILL NOT SUM, which means that will return a string of values that will read for example: "(4)(45)(9)(3)(1)(1)(3)(6)(2)(1)....etc." It could break the screen border with this nonsense. And it looks janky, which will bounce customers off the site instantly. AND your suggestion to do this as another layer of app bloat on the app sandwich is perfectly absurd.

Let me know when Shopify is ready to give serious support and tell me how to CODE a reasonable solution into facets.liquid and it's associated .js and .css theme files.

It's an embarrassing oversight on the part of Shopify that there is no availability filter that shows in stock goods vs out of stock goods (regardless if the out of stock can still be custom ordered). Site visitors should be able to easily filter products on this basis because it affects how quickly the product will be shipped. Is this really a condition Shopify wants it's sites to perform poorly on? Isn't that kind of contrary to the whole mission of good ui > good seo > good revenue?
You have a feature that is not working as advertised. Please fix it or tell me how I can fix it IN THE THEME FILES WITH CODE. Don't come at me with any more apps, alternatives, or substitutes. I assure you I am either already employing them or have tested them and found them inadequate.

UPDATE: Wait wait wait wait. So now I'm noticing that this app doesn't even use canonical URLS in the recommended products gallery! Are ya'll joking with this entire thing or what?

helpful, easy to navigate and make the customer search & discovery game easier.

Great app that is easy to install and simple to integrate and setup.
Only feature missing is a Buy Now or Add to Cart button for the products so that customers don't have to leave the main item page to simply buy an add on.

So it took me a while to find an app that would do exactly what I needed and this does it. Complimentary products because I have several items all with the same design and each has a unique design number in the title like BL#7. Only reason I did not give a 5 was because the search function when searching for items to add to the complimentary doesnt work well at all. Search for BL#7 and you get 50 items with BL#105 etc. If the search function returned only the matches it would be perfect.

There is only one thing that for me holds this app from getting 5 stars, and that is no compatibility with category metafields. Category metafields are great for variants, but cant be filtered by this app. Hopefully this will be added in a next update.

Apparently, the tags shop filter only works in your main language... So any secondary languages don't show the additional filter. Come on Shopify, get with the times!

There is a limit of 25 Filters that can be used. Which I believe doesn't make sense. The App should allow unlimited filters to be made. We are shifting our store from Magento to Shopify but are struggling with our filter needs.

super goood

This definitely helps you select products that can compliment each other, like outfits, etc. Let's me feel like I have first hand in promoting combinations in my clients tastes.

A little cumbersome to use though:
- The search results window is fixed on the page and covers the product you are selecting complimentary prods for. It would be much easier if I could move that results list over to the side and eyeball possibilities
- Search results show all status' of products. Don't see if they are eligible to display or not until you add them to the products list.
- Would love if the display of complimentary products had option to suppress the product title and display a line grid of the first 3-4 recommendations. It would show there are more than just one suggestion. The '>' isn't always noticeable. Just making more work for the customer. Apps need to make things clear for them.

Could be enhanced just a little for big paybacks
