    Is it possible to change the filter by Xstore brands to show only xstore brands for products in the current category.
    At the moment when I use the filter, it shows every single xstore brand created, I would like to make it only show the brands in the current product category that is being viewed.

    Hello, Ian,

    Unfortunately, it is not possible to achieve this through the available settings. However, if you provide us with access to your FTP and admin panel, we will be able to implement the necessary customization for you.

    Hello,

    Thank you for providing access to the admin panel. However, we also require FTP access, so please provide those credentials as well.

    For FTP access, we require the following details: FTP host, FTP username, FTP password, FTP port, and FTP encryption type. If you need assistance in creating these credentials, please reach out to your hosting provider who will guide you through the process.

    Hello,
    Unfortunately, the FTP access details you provided lead to an empty folder.

    Hello, Ian,

    Thank you for providing access. We have modified the XStore Brand filter so that it now displays only the brands within the current category. Unfortunately, we cannot set this behavior as the default for all our clients. Therefore, we have made several changes (too many to list here) to the following file:

    wp-content/plugins/et-core-plugin/app/controllers/elementor/general/product-filters.php

    Additionally, we have added the following custom code to the xstore-child/functions.php file of your child theme.

    add_filter( 'et_taxonomy_filter_template_settings', function ( $settings ) {
        $settings['brand_depend_category'] = true;
        return $settings;
    });

    Best regards,

    Thankyou, that works a lot better with so many brands in use, is there anything I need to do when applying updates to the store, or will the changes not be overwritten?

    Hello, Ian,

    Thank you for your feedback. We are glad to hear that the solution works better for your store with multiple brands.
    Regarding updates, if the changes were made in the child theme, they will not be overwritten when updating the parent theme or plugins.

    Best Regards,
