FE Widget (block) not showing

Hi @jwwp3

Thank you for reaching out to our support team.

Have you tried using the Filters Widget shortcode on the required page? The mentioned shortcode is:

[fe_widget]

Please check this page for a list of all available shortcodes: https://filtereverything.pro/resources/shortcodes/

We also recommend reviewing the following guide for basic setup information: https://filtereverything.pro/resources/how-to-start-filtering/

And this article covers common mistakes that may prevent filters from displaying correctly: https://filtereverything.pro/resources/common-mistakes-and-how-to-avoid-them/

@jwwp3 Can you please send only the links to the screenshots? None of the images are being displayed, they appear to be broken or unavailable: https://prnt.sc/QluNAyGTIyNt

Hi @jwwp3

After reviewing the screenshots, we noticed that the filter set is placed on the Business Types taxonomy pages. However, this page: https://namarchador.org/working-experimenting-page-for-post-query-loops/ is not a taxonomy page, it is a singular page.

In order to display the filters on this page, you need to select the following parameters under “Where to filter”: Pages + [Name of the required page].

Also, please note that the free version works only with the default main query and the default Gutenberg Query Loop block query available in default WP themes like the 2025 theme and others.

@jwwp3 It is in the section that you sent in the previous screenshots: https://prnt.sc/QIfvKeTV6WDM. In that section, you need to choose Pages, and in the dropdown next to it, select the name of this page: https://namarchador.org/working-experimenting-page-for-post-query-loops/.

Just like in this example: https://prnt.sc/Gg3gacszIASU, where we selected Pages + the name of the page, which in that case is “Gutenberg: query post test”.

The WP_Query is essentially what displays the required posts on your page. If you are interested in this topic, you may want to check the official WordPress documentation, which explains it in more detail: https://developer.ww.wp.xz.cn/reference/classes/wp_query/

The default taxonomy archive pages for CPT (custom post types) use the main query, and the Gutenberg Query Loop block uses a custom WP_Query on singular pages, so it can be filtered as well.

The rest of the content coming from other page builders or extensions, including other FSE themes introducing their own blocks using custom queries, would only be available to filter in the PRO version.

If you are using the default Gutenberg Query Loop block: https://prnt.sc/3nAEW36nUkVL it should be filterable without any issues in the free version of the plugin.

@jwwp3 Can you please clarify if you are referring to the widget block in order to apply styles to the filter via the block’s visual settings? If that is the case, at the moment you can only apply styles to the filters via custom CSS, which you can add in Filters > Settings > Experimental > Custom CSS.

Also, you can go to Filters > Settings > Experimental and turn on the stylized options for checkboxes and dropdowns, which will improve their appearance, and then click the Save button at the bottom of the page.

The filter widget blocks for the different page builds, including Gutenberg, will be added starting from version 1.9.3, and an option to apply styles via those block settings are only in plans for the future updates. However, there is currently no ETA for this feature.

Hi @jwwp3

at time 8:57 into the video he starts selecting the FE Widget block

What you can see in the video is the Elementor widget for FE PRO. Previously, it was available in the WordPress Elementor section, but with the latest updates it is now available in our own section in Elementor, as shown here: https://prnt.sc/o3loCp3F1hQn

Starting from the 1.9.3 update, widgets like this will also be available for other page builders, including Gutenberg and Divi, and so on. This is an example of how it would look in Gutenberg from version 1.9.3: https://prnt.sc/MUACS4tYuNVD. This is not available yet. At the moment, you can only use a shortcode to display filters on the required page when using FSE themes while editing the page, or use a widget area on the page if it is available, you can then use the FE widget.

@jwwp3 Currently, you are using the Show More and Folding features. If your goal is to make it look like the examples below from WP Blocks, you can go to the filter set and, for each filter, choose Dropdown in the View in Widget option: https://prnt.sc/lJ3q4O8HEkW9 and click the Update button.

You can also go to Filters > Settings > Experimental and enable these options: https://prnt.sc/djZqSYDgB8AO then scroll to the bottom of the page and click the Save button to apply the changes. This will apply the same styles that you can see on the demo site for checkboxes, radio buttons, dropdowns, and other filter types.

Last but not least, if your goal is to display only two filters on the page, you can go to the filter set, scroll down, and use these options: https://prnt.sc/_om8X9nUKJfS. This will create only two columns, allowing the filters to spread across the available space rather than being aligned to the side when more than two columns are set.

As for style modifications, these can only be made via custom CSS, which can be added in Filters > Settings > Experimental > Custom CSS. You can also set the Widget Primary Color in Filters > Settings > General: https://prnt.sc/eyzKHX05AFPL
