This article is about Rapid Search collection filters and filters to your Rapid Search result page.
You may add and customize filters in your Rapid Search admin Settings › Filters menu.
You may add filters to your collections with Rapid Search. These may be new or even replace your Shopify built-in collection filters.
A great advantage of Rapid Search collection filters is that you can filter collections with up to 10,000 products.
Themes you can add filters to:
Your may add collection filters to any or all of your themes in your Rapid Search admin by simply switching on the toggle of the chosen themes; multiple themes can be selected at the same time.
Types of filters:
In the same menu, you may also choose, what kind of filters you wish to see: Collection, Price, Brand, Availability, Tag filter, or you may filter for any of the variants you have added to your products in your Shopify admin.
Tag filter:
Your collections and your search results can be filtered by the tags you have added to your products in your Shopify admin. You can select if you wish to include filters for all of your tags or only some of them by clicking on the small cogwheel icon next to the toggle.
Besides having the option of showing filters for all of your tags, you can either exclude tags by listing the tags you wish to exclude, or you can specify which tags you would like to have filter for if you select the Show selected tags only option.
Variants filters:
Your collections and your search results can be filtered also by the variants you have added to your products in your Shopify admin. This means you can have more filters by adding new Variants in your Shopify admin and enriching them with various Options (i.e. Variant: "Material", Options: "metal", "wood", "ceramic", "plastic"). (For further info about adding variants, please consult this article.)
Customizing your filters:
The filters may be switched on or off, drag and dropped to change their order or even renamed so that they would appear with a different name in your store.
In case you have your collection filters enabled, your filters on the search results page would look the same (i.e. in case your team has horizontal filters then all your filters would be horizontal, if your theme has vertical filters, then your collection pages as well as your search results page would have vertical filters).
PLEASE NOTE: In case you do not have collection filters enabled for any of your themes, then the filters settings would be applied for your filters on your Rapid Search search result page.
For all the rest of the settings concerning your result page please see your Settings › Result page menu (Please consult our article on Result Page here.)
