Suggestion: Limit Filter Height – as Maximum!

    Hello, in the presets -> preset filters I can set “Limit filter height”.

    This quite fine with filters with a lot of items.

    BUT.

    When I filter the products, so that only very few of these items are left over – the filter appears still in the chosen height. An then has a more or less huge and senseless space there.

    For example (the filter is in the left sidebar, beneath the menu and the logo):
    https://spoo-design.de/shop/
    Look at the “jewelry motives” – fine. Set to 200 pixels.
    Look at the “jewelry themes” one below. The same – fine.

    Now with filter, choose one motive:
    https://spoo-design.de/shop/?pa_motiv-filter=aegyptisch
    An now we have this ugly space at the “jewelry themes”.

    So – it would be great if the “Limit filter height” would only set a MAXIMUM.
    When there are less items, the height should be less, to.

    Thank you!
    Sandra

    Hello Sandra,

    Thank you so much for sharing your idea on improving our plugin, the feature that you propose could certainly prove to be useful!

    We obviously cannot change the default behavior of the height limit filter property, since too many users depend on its stable implementation. Perhaps we could look into creating some kind of a sub-option that would introduce the functionality that you describe.

    I will add your feature request to our To Do list, and since it’s rather easy to program, it may be ready within the next 2 releases. You can consult our Changelogs for the newly issued updates to see if it has been added.

    Meanwhile, if you don’t wish to wait, there is a CSS way to achieve the functionality that you are interested in. You can test it for your “Themes” filter by adding the following CSS rules into the annasta Filters > Style options > Custom CSS box:

    .awf-filters-1-25-container {
  height: auto;
  max-height: 200px;
}

    The height limits are programmed individually for each filter, so you can only adjust this on a filter-by-filter basis. I can see that you are the premium user, so please don’t hesitate to contact us if you would like our help in creating additional rules for other filters.

    Dear Sandra,

    I am happy to inform you that the Auto-shrink for shorter options list option has been introduced in the version 1.5.5 to supplement the Limit filter height setting in response to your feature request.

    I will now mark this thread as resolved, once again thank you for your contribution to the plugin improvement!
