Query Filters
Query Filters
Relevance Search & Faceted Filtering, Built for FSE Blocks
No more search dead ends.
WordPress search returns matches. Query Filters returns answers.
Weighted scoring, intelligent autocomplete, and native block filtering — all on WordPress standards, zero external dependencies.
Query Filters builds a weighted search index directly into your site — title matches score higher, exact phrases score higher still, and autocomplete surfaces only results that actually exist. Every search interaction feels intentional, because the results actually reflect what the user typed.
Filters update contextually, showing only the options relevant to what’s currently on screen. A visitor filtering by “Electronics” sees only the tags that exist on Electronics products — not every tag in the system. Every filter choice leads somewhere useful.
Counts track per post type, so product filters show product counts, not a blended total across your entire site. The numbers visitors see are accurate, specific, and meaningful — which means they trust the interface and keep exploring.
Built entirely on WordPress core, using native blocks and the Interactivity API.
Built on WordPress FSE standards
Every other solution works around WordPress. This one works with it.
Built on @wordpress/interactivity-router and a custom weighted search index that lives entirely inside your WordPress install. No external services. Query Loop handles the query. The search index handles relevance. Filters and search work together, and everything. Query Loop, Query Total, Pagination, No Results keeps working exactly as WordPress intended.
Filters that never mislead. Your visitors deserve results, not dead ends.

The same experience as Global Search, wrapped in a popup. The search input sits inline in your header or navigation. Focus it and Quick Links appear in the dropdown.
