Hello, I’m using the YMME version of the plugin for car batteries and I’ve had my staff ask if it’s possible to make the last selected vehicle stick on the results page? That way if a vehicle has several different engines they can quickly flip through each them and see if all the batteries are the same regardless of engine (without selecting the Year/Make/Model again for each engine.)

I looked through the list of plugin modifications but didn’t see anything that looked like it would do this.

Thanks!

Hi guys! Is there any chance to beautify the URL returned from YMM selector? I mean to make it shorter and more readable?

https://carsoundsecurity.co.uk/?s=&ymm_search=1&post_type=product&_make=Mercedes&_model=C-Class&_year=2021%2B%20(W206-A206-C206-S206)

Many thanks!

I have added new modification Google XML Sitemaps – all seem to be working fine but google throws “Alternate page with proper canonical tag” ERROR for thousands of links. They all look like this

https://jkmoto.ie/product-category/parts/engine/engine-cooling-system-engine/cooling-hose-kits/?_cat=Suzuki&_year=2007&_make=600&_model=GSR+600/page/2//feed//feed//feed//feed//feed//feed//feed/

All end with lots of //feed//feed//feed//feed/ a the end – I’m assuming that’s the issue there.
Did I make a mistake somewhere in modification or am I missing something ?

Also is it possible for links to look like this ? and have no lots of feed feed feed at the end ?
https://jkmoto.ie/product-category/parts/engine/engine-cooling-system-engine/cooling-hose-kits/Suzuki/2007/600/GSR600

I think I did see this mod to make it look like this but can’t find it again. This (I think would be more SEO friendly)

Thanks in advance.

Good afternoon! I was wondering if this scenario is doable: currently I have 2 vehicle search bars – one of them is returned by shortcode and on search leads to a category id [ymm_selector cat_id=116].

Can I restrict this somehow that the selector list to show only these cars that are linked with this category id and not the entire list of 30 cars?

Many thanks.

Can you please help me figure out what I’m doing wrong? I created a few products and added MMY data as shown in your demo, but I’m getting an error when trying to retrieve the model and year data. Thank you! I’m happy to provide login details for further investigation.

Good afternoon,

I’m working on a manufacturer website that aims to show visitors what products their cars would be compatible with. We decided to start with wind-wipers as they seemed, and have proven to be, the hardest ones to handle.

Due to their request, they wanted the Year dropdown element to show a string with the month and year of both start and end of production, as to reduce the amount of options shown. They also wanted to not have to choose every category and subcategory, as choosing only the car, model and year leads to no results being found (i’ve found how to remove the categories, but the problem persists).

Finally, possibly the most complex request: the wind-wipers have different adapters and sizes that must be shown when searching separated from the product (https://www.mastersensor.com/pt/produtos/pesquisa-avancada this website shows how they would like to present them) in their own boxes. I thought if there could be a way to add those specifications about the car to the YMM Data without them having to be searchable and filling those boxes in dynamically. In case the explanation seemed confusing: when searching specifically for wind-wipers of car X, the search result page would show car X’s wind-wipers specs on pre-existing boxes that were filled in automatically with the information provided to the plugin.

Hi there! Quick question. The previous developer imported a large list of cars and only a couple of them are linked to products. Since we don’t need all car models, is there any chance to remove from selector some of them?

Already tried ‘delete existing values’ method but this will empty all cars from selector.

Any custom code / function alternative for this to hide some cars from selector?

I just deployed a new install of woocommerce and then installed YMM Search. after activating the YMM search plugin I get this message: ((This plugin is incompatible with the enabled WooCommerce feature ‘High-Performance order storage’, it shouldn’t be activated. ))

Is there going to be an update to fix this?

If I export the ymm data, edit the csv and then import will the import update existing data where the SKU matches? what is the correct process for ONLY updating existing data not removing?

Hi there,

Do the search attributes update automatically? For example if I added a new Make, would it add this to the search bar functionality?

Thanks!

Good afternoon! I would like to ask if this scenario is doable: I use WooCommerce and Elementor PRO. Can I have a second YMM search bar which on search to redirect the users to a specific category or subcategory?

For example, I have the page ‘alarms’. (on this page I will use the YMM shortcode to display my second search bar). The user will search for BMW 1-Series 2004-2014 (E81-E82-E87-E88) – on search he will be redirected to product-category/alarms and the results will be restricted to that category only.

Tried to add a snippet but no result just yet.

// Redirect WooCommerce search to specific category for YMM selector shortcode
function redirect_woocommerce_search_to_category_for_shortcode($query) {
    // Check if the YMM selector shortcode is present on the page
    global $post;
    if (is_search() && !is_admin() && $query->is_main_query() && has_shortcode($post->post_content, 'ymm_selector')) {
        $search_query = $query->get('s');
        $category_slug = 'alarms'; // Replace with your category slug
        $category = get_term_by('slug', $category_slug, 'product_cat');

        if ($category) {
            $query->set('post_type', 'product');
            $query->set('tax_query', array(
                array(
                    'taxonomy' => 'product_cat',
                    'field'    => 'term_id',
                    'terms'    => $category->term_id,
                ),
            ));
            $query->set('s', $search_query); // Preserve search query
        }
    }
}
add_action('pre_get_posts', 'redirect_woocommerce_search_to_category_for_shortcode');

Thanks a lot!

Hello,

Last week,

I created a new sub-category with some new products in it.

I now have the following problem:

I have translated my site bunkerparts.nl into 5 other languages and use the extensions bunkerparts.com, bunkerparts.fr, bunkerparts.de, bunkerparts.es and bunkerparts.it, for this translation I use WPML.

Now the new category is shown in the base language in the YMM selector, but in the other languages the category is not shown.

What is going wrong here?

Hi,

this product has been working so well the last couple of years but with the last wordpress update I am unable to upload a complete data file like before – there are approx 54,000 lines of data and it will only take the first 8000 – can you please help?

I am adding product filter, Now I want to reset all previous and add new. But unable to reset any previous attributes. My website now has no product then oh attribute shows.

https://prnt.sc/RbZxibOrzMo1

I try to add in Search results page a heading block with make model year but I don’t see any search query parameter in “Elementor dynamic tags” section. (e.g instead of Search results for “BMW 1-Series 2004-2014 to display only BMW 1-Series 2004-2014). Any idea on how can achieve this? Many thanks!

Hello again Pektsekye,

First, thanks for your previous support. I’m getting a better level of understanding about setting our woocommerce site to work together with YMM Search plugin.

At this point, is there any way to get working the modification “Make Model Engine Year” with the other, linking/mapping to attributes version, and the one that integrates category dropdown too? It would be like this dropdowns order: make, model, engine, category, year with importing the CSV with attributes mapped.

Thanks in advance,

Does this plugin also work with SureCart?

Testing is ok in filtering simple products with an assigned SKU, but no product in search results when the SKUs are assigned for variation products with no main SKU. Is it possible to look into those variations identifiers for the results/filters as well, and how can I do it?

Thanks in advance,

Hello,
First of all, thanks for such an awesome plugin.
I know this question is not new for you. Many of us are looking for a way to add an extra field to the YMM Search. My question is: Could you please provide the exact name and location of the files that need to be modified, in order to implement an extra field to the Search?
I’m using the make_model_engine_year modification and I would like to add a new field called “Type”, just between Make and Model, like: [make_type_model_engine_year]

I’m not a programmer but I know the word “type” is a reserved word for many programming languages.

I already made several attempts to add the extra field by searching the word “make” in all the files and trying to add “vtype” (vehicle type) to the different files with no success.
Thanks in advance!

Hello,

I use the modified version of ymm.
The csv looks like this:

BMW, R-serie, R1200GSA K51, 2013 – 2018
BMW, F-serie, F800R K73, 2005 – 2014
BMW, C-serie, C600 – C650 Sport K18, 2011 – 2019
BMW, C-serie, C650GT K19, 2011 – 2019

By brand, everything goes well.
At 2nd value, the double occurring value C-series is not accepted.

Anyone with a solution?

Hello, after installing the plugin, the widget option is not shown in elementor at all.

Hi I was wondering if it’s possible to make the “select category” dropdown always show. Currently it only shows after selecting Make, Model, and Year.

Hi Pektsekye,

Can you help me with modifying the text colour and background colour of the YMM widget from the plugin editor?
I am using elementor page builder with wordpress and I have YMM widget through elementor and my theme is blocksy with woocommerce.

Note: I am restricted from adding css code through page builder as it is a free version


I’m sharing the screenshot from gdrive link and also attaching https://drive.google.com/file/d/1o4zqcpduqhj6a0IIpQ3jFgm9rx3tb9iw/view?usp=sharing

Hello, I would like it after the filtering I have placed on the home page. On the store page, the number of products in a given category should vary depending on the number of searches. For example, after filtering, there will be 2 products that belong to the “test” category, I would like it to say 2 only for the “test” category.

Thank you for the plugin

is it possible to export ymm with WP All Export in a xml with other product data?

Thanks in advance.

I’m using the YMM Search plugin, and I’m running into an Ajax error when I try to filter products on the shop page. I have one product set up with restrictions to test this out, and the dropdown for Make shows Honda, but when you select Honda it gives a 403 error in the console:

jquery.min.js?ver=3.7.1:2   
GET https://mikescustommachining.com/wp-content/plugins/ymm-search/ymm_ajax.php?action=ymm_selector_fetch&cId=0&values%5B%5D=Honda 403 (Forbidden)

What could be causing this? Is there a common setting in the hosting server that could cause this?

Hello,

First of all, thanks for this great plugin.

I was wondering if there was a simple way to limit the YMM search to one category of products via a shortcode.

The idea would be to publish a YMM search bar with a shortcode here: https://thorn-bikes.com/eflexmoto/

And that this search bar would return results on this product category only: https://thorn-bikes.com/categorie-produit/conversion-e85/

Thanks in advance for your kind help.

Hello!

When you fill in the data, and access, for example, a product, you will see the compatible models below, and there is the “show more” or “show less” button. I would like to know if there is any possibility of a search engine appearing, since If an item has hundreds of compatible models, it is very tiring to hit the “show more” button to find out if it is compatible.

Is there any possibility of putting a search engine where you put a keyword, and it shows if it is in that list?

Thank you.

Hi my friend,

I have donwloaded and using the Make Model Engine modification but I need a 4th Dropdown so I am going to download the Make Model Trim Engine modification. So the workaround is to Emport my current data through YMM export option and then enrich the extracted data with my 4th column.

Next, after selecting the 4th option, I would NOT like the Categories Dropdown to be rendered, but Start Searching instead.

So, Is it possible to completely “skip” the Categories and Subcategories dropdwons and start immediate search right after 4th selection?

Thanks in advance.
