About this plugin
FilterNest is a fast, accessible WooCommerce product filter. Shoppers narrow large catalogues by category, tag, attribute, price and rating, and the product grid updates instantly without a page reload. It works on the shop page and on every product category, tag and attribute archive, with block themes (such as Twenty Twenty-Five and its Product Collection block) and classic themes (such as Storefront).
Install it and the filters appear next to your products straight away: FilterNest builds a sensible default filter set from your categories, attributes and prices. Then shape it in FilterNest → Filter sets.
How it works: every filter change updates the address bar, so filtered pages can be bookmarked, shared and navigated with the Back button. FilterNest fetches that address and swaps in the new products, result count and sorting. Without JavaScript, the same filters work as an ordinary form and plain links.
