Manage filter option values
Control which values show for a filter option and the order they appear in — by using all values, sorting, or a manual list.
Once you've added a filter option (see Configure filter options), open its Edit filter option page to control which values it shows, in what order, and how it behaves.
Choose which values appear
Under Values > Type, choose one:
Use all values (default) — show every value found in your product data for this source.
By prefix — only show values starting with a prefix you specify. Useful when a variant option mixes several groups of values (e.g. SKU-style values).
Manual selection — pick exactly which values to show from a list, regardless of your product data.
Sort order
Under Values > Sort, choose one:
A-Z / Z-A — alphabetical.
Product count ascending / Product count descending — order by how many matching products each value has.
Manually — drag values into a custom order yourself.
Natural — the order values appear in your underlying product data.
Display options
Collapse filter by default — when on, this option starts collapsed and shoppers click to expand it. Turn it off to have it expanded automatically. See also Expand filter options by default.
Enable search within values — adds a small search box above the value list, useful for options with many values.
Show more options — when a value list is long, choose how the rest are handled: Scrollbar, a Show more button, or Show all values at once.
Advanced settings
Logic — OR condition (match any selected value) or AND condition (match only products with all selected values). See Use AND filtering condition in the same filter option.
Option value text transform — force value text to None, Capitalize, Uppercase, or Lowercase, or use the store-wide default (Use global setting, configured in Change filter tree style).
Automatically remove value prefixes — strip a common prefix (e.g.
Color_,Material_) from displayed value text without changing your underlying product data.Tooltip content — optional help text (under 150 words) shown next to the option to explain it to shoppers.
Combine similar values
If your product data has near-duplicate values that should really be treated as one (e.g. "Red", "red", "RED"), don't delete the extras — merge them into a single group instead. See Merge filter option values into a group.
