Hello i would like some support around the way i want to lay my products out. There is a website id like to follow in terms of setup.

When you click into shop there is a brands grid and once clicking into each brand there is a filter for category with the brand already being selected.

The products are listed by variant. Is this possible? I have simply just tried a brand grid and havent had success with that either as the only brand block i can see is a carousel.

Please, contact administrator
for this information.

Dear @GreenLion,

We hope this message finds you well. We would like to direct your attention to the Archive Product Builder documentation, which provides comprehensive guidance on creating custom pages with specific conditions. You can access this resource at the following link: https://www.8theme.com/documentation/xstore/xstore-builders/xstore-products-archive-builder-with-elementor/.

Additionally, we suggest considering the creation of a “ghost” page featuring various brands. This page would function similarly to a shop page for your customers. Upon selecting a brand, customers would be redirected to the original shop page where products related to the selected brand are displayed. This approach has been successfully implemented for another client, and you may find the discussion regarding this solution helpful. Please review the details here: https://www.8theme.com/topic/the-theme-is-not-supporting-in-creating-a-brand-page/.

Should you require further assistance with customization, we invite you to submit a request via our customization panel at https://www.8theme.com/account/#etheme_customization_panel.

Thank you for choosing 8Theme. We look forward to assisting you further.

Best Regards,

i want to be able to filter by brand also and i plan to add plugins that allow ajax search where i dont need to click the search button i can just select the option i want in the dropdown and see the change. This isnt available in xstore right? And if i was to use xstore brands then plugins like woocommerce product filters wont be able to filter this group? Im thinking i may need to change the brands to attributes.

Please advise, i was able to make the brand grid but again those links will take you to that brand page and if you wanted to see all brands again there isnt a filter to deselect, and see the brand grid again

Please advise

Hello, GreenLion,

We regret to inform you that the use of xstore brands and plugins such as WooCommerce product filters is not possible on our platform. However, we do offer a variety of filters, including both standard and AJAX-based sorting/filtering options, which may meet your needs.

Regarding the specific search functionality you mentioned, we currently do not support this feature. We invite you to submit a request for its implementation at our task board here:
https://www.8theme.com/taskboard/](https://www.8theme.com/taskboard/

Additionally, for any custom requirements, you are welcome to contact our customization department through the following link:

We appreciate your understanding and are here to assist with any further inquiries you might have.

Best Regards,
The 8Theme Team
