Is it possible to hide ymm Query Strings

Hello,

Try to add the line:

add_action( 'init', array($this, 'addUrlParameters'));

after the line:

add_filter('get_search_query', array($this, 'shop_order_search_label' ));

and add the code:

public function addUrlParameters(){ 
     if (isset($_GET['_make']) && !isset($_GET['s']) && !isset($_GET['ymm_search']) && !isset($_GET['post_type']) && !is_product_category()){
       $_GET['s'] = '';
       $_GET['ymm_search'] = 1;
       $_GET['post_type'] = 'product';
       $_GET['orderby'] = 'name';       
     }
  }

before the line:

  public function applyFilter(){

in the line:
wp-content/plugins/ymm-search/Controller/Product.php

Replace the line:

var params = (this.isCategoryPage && this.filterCategoryPage) || categoryUrl ? {} : {s:searchWord, ymm_search:1, post_type:'product'};

with:

 var params = (this.isCategoryPage && this.filterCategoryPage) || categoryUrl ? {} : {}; // add search parameters with php script {s:searchWord, ymm_search:1, post_type:'product'}

in the file:
wp-content/plugins/ymm-search/view/frontend/web/main.js

Then refresh your browser cache. And try to access the search results page only with make, model and year parameters:
yourwebsite.com/?_make=HONDA%20%2F%20本田&_model=CIVIC%20喜美&_trim=8代%201.8%20(K12)&_engine=2006-

Hello,

For anyone else who need SEO URLs on the search results page of this plugin.

Add the code:

add_action('init', '_ymm_add_url_parameters');
add_filter('query_vars', '_ymm_add_query_vars');
add_action('parse_query', '_ymm_parse_query');

function _ymm_add_url_parameters(){ 
   // To make it work with SEO URL like:
   // https://website.com/vehicle/BMW/X3/2008/
   // instead of:
   // https://website.com/?s=&ymm_search=1&post_type=product&_make=BMW&_model=X3&_year=2008
   // 
   // Don't forget to refresh the wordpress permalink settings after changing the rewrite rules in:
   // WordPress dashboard -> Settings -> Permalink 
   //   click the "Save changes" button at the bottom of the page
   add_rewrite_rule('^vehicle/([A-Za-z0-9-]+)/?$', 'index.php?s=&ymm_search=1&post_type=product&_make=$matches[1]', 'top');
   add_rewrite_rule('^vehicle/([A-Za-z0-9-]+)/page/([0-9]{1,})/?$', 'index.php?s=&ymm_search=1&post_type=product&_make=$matches[1]&paged=$matches[2]', 'top');   
   add_rewrite_rule('^vehicle/([A-Za-z0-9-]+)/([A-Za-z0-9-]+)/?$', 'index.php?s=&ymm_search=1&post_type=product&_make=$matches[1]&_model=$matches[2]', 'top');
   add_rewrite_rule('^vehicle/([A-Za-z0-9-]+)/([A-Za-z0-9-]+)/page/([0-9]{1,})/?$', 'index.php?s=&ymm_search=1&post_type=product&_make=$matches[1]&_model=$matches[2]&paged=$matches[3]', 'top');
   add_rewrite_rule('^vehicle/([A-Za-z0-9-]+)/([A-Za-z0-9-]+)/([A-Za-z0-9-]+)/?$', 'index.php?s=&ymm_search=1&post_type=product&_make=$matches[1]&_model=$matches[2]&_year=$matches[3]', 'top');
   add_rewrite_rule('^vehicle/([A-Za-z0-9-]+)/([A-Za-z0-9-]+)/([A-Za-z0-9-]+)/page/([0-9]{1,})/?$', 'index.php?s=&ymm_search=1&post_type=product&_make=$matches[1]&_model=$matches[2]&_year=$matches[3]&paged=$matches[4]', 'top');   
}

function _ymm_add_query_vars($aVars) {
  $aVars[] = "ymm_search";
  $aVars[] = "_make";
  $aVars[] = "_model";
  $aVars[] = "_year";                 
  return $aVars;
}

function _ymm_parse_query($where) {  
  $ymm_make = get_query_var('_make');
  if ($ymm_make){
   $_GET['ymm_search'] = get_query_var('ymm_search');
   $_GET['_make'] = get_query_var('_make');
   $_GET['_model'] = get_query_var('_model');
   $_GET['_year'] = get_query_var('_year');
   $_GET['s'] = get_query_var('s');	 		 	 		 		 
  }    
}

to the end of the file:
wp-content/plugins/ymm-search/ymm-search.php

Replace the code:

window.location.href = url + '?' + $.param(params);

with

if (!categoryUrl){        
  var pNames = this.levelParameterNames;
  var l = pNames.length;
  url = url.replace(/\/+$/, '');
  url += '/vehicle/';
  for (var i=0;i<l;i++) {
    if (values[pNames[i]] != undefined){
      url += values[pNames[i]] + '/';  
    } 
  }
  window.location.href = url;    
} else {           
  window.location.href = url + '?' + $.param(params);
}

in the file:
wp-content/plugins/ymm-search/view/frontend/web/main.js

Then refresh the wordpress permalink settings in:
Wordpress dashboard -> Settings -> Permalink
Click the “Save changes” button at the bottom of the page without any changes.

–

Then refresh be browser cache and try to access the search results page as:
https://yourwebsite.com/vehicle/BMW/X3/2008/
instead of:
https://yourwebsite.com/?s=&ymm_search=1&post_type=product&_make=BMW&_model=X3&_year=2008

Hello,

If someone need to use Chinese Letters in the URL it is possible to use a regular expression like this:

add_rewrite_rule('^vehicle/([^/]+)/?$', 'index.php?s=&ymm_search=1&post_type=product&_make=$matches[1]', 'top');

and then url decode it:

$_GET['_make'] = urldecode(get_query_var('_make'));

I have found this workaround on the page:
