 * Hello, I am using the shortcode on my Shop page to display filters. When I use
   the default shortcode it works : [fe_widget] (it shows the priority filter set)
   
   But when I want to show a secondary filter set like [fe_widget id=”8668″] it 
   does not work.
 * When I check the HTML of the filter it shows the ID of the main filter set, the
   one that shows with the default shortcode. Here is the HTML :
 *     ```wp-block-code
       <div class="wpc-filters-main-wrap wpc-filter-set-8600" data-set="8600">
       ```
   
 * How to use the ID attribute in the shortcode correctly ?
 * I am using Elementor Pro page builder and WPML to translate my filters too.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fshortcode-id-selector-not-working%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi [@palopoliart7](https://wordpress.org/support/users/palopoliart7/)
 * Thank you for your interest in the Filter Everything plugin.
 * There is a lot of confusion with the ID in the shortcodes, it wasn’t created 
   to display a filter set by its ID but rather as a priority which one will be 
   displayed first if there are a couple of shortcodes and filter sets applied to
   one page. In the future, we are planning to remove the ID from shortcodes. If
   you have a couple of filter sets applied to one page use priority only, and do
   not add ID at all in shortcodes.

 * Thank you for your answer. Looked in the documentation, but I did not find how
   to choose Priority on my filter sets, and how to include this priority in the
   shortcode. Can you guide me here ?

 * Hi [@palopoliart7](https://wordpress.org/support/users/palopoliart7/)
 * Apologies for the confusion in the previous answer. We made a functionality mistake
   between the PRO and Free versions.
 * The free version only can display one filter set on the page, and there is no
   priority option in the filter set settings.
 * The PRO version has a priority option in the filter set settings, with the ability
   to display several filter sets on one page.
 * So in the free version, the first filter will only be displayed on your page.
 * Best Regards – Victor
