Captain Advance Filter

Description

Captain Advance Filter is a lightweight WordPress search and filter plugin that lets you create powerful AJAX powered filters for posts, pages, custom post types, and WooCommerce products.

Create advanced search and filtering experiences without coding. Build custom queries and filter sets, choose from multiple filter types and display styles, and show filtered results instantly without reloading the page.

Filter your content by categories, tags, custom taxonomies, post meta, product attributes, price, stock status, ratings, dates, and more. Display filter options using checkboxes, radio buttons, dropdowns, search fields, range sliders, A Z navigation, date pickers, WooCommerce ratings, or a frontend view switcher.
