It would be nice to have an option in FWW plugin to add noindex tag if product loop has less products than: x.
noindex tag based on count of the products in a loop

This will be added in next update. To flesh this out a bit:
1) Nofollow tags will be added to hyperlinks if they have < X products - will only apply to attributes - i.e. follow will always happen for product categories 2) Noindex meta will be added to pages with < X products

Please remember: Don’t mix noindex & rel=canonical on same page

When’s the next update coming out? I can’t wait to see the meta and seo description option!

Probably the 4th or 5th January.

Any updates?

FWW 2.07
1) Broken category links: https://foundthru.com/filter/dogs/ – http://prntscr.com/m7loot
2) Mixed ordering of categories and subcategories. Duplicate URLs with the same content.
https://foundthru.com/filter/baking/bakeware/ – works ok
https://foundthru.com/filter/bakeware/baking/ – doesn’t work http://prntscr.com/m7m54s
Why did you change this? It was better before update.
January 22, 2019 @ 8:23 pm
Hi – sorry – this has been fixed. I’ll release another update once this ordering of taxonomy values has been fixed properly. I changed it so that URLs like /filter/green/blue/ would always be in the correct order, i.e. /filter/blue/green/
January 28, 2019 @ 4:16 pm
But please DO NOT change the default order of the category/subcategory url structure like before (to subcategory/category in some cases). Apply this to the attributes only or as an option.
The current structure like ‘filter/maincategory/subcategory’ is better because WE CAN AUTOMATICALLY (if we set the same woo category and ffw slug – btw. it eliminates the duplicates):
1) create a list of categories with links using wordpress ‘wp_list_categories()’ function
2) add categories to sitemap
3) add categories to menu
4) use in theme functions/shortcodes
etc.

By seo description I mean custom text on the top or bottom of the page just like the description of a category, but showed only with the certain combination of filters:
e.g
if url is ‘/shoes/nike/black’ or active filters are ‘shoes and nike and black’ show ‘description 1’
if url is ‘/shoes/adidas/white’ or active filters are ‘shoes and adidas and white’ show ‘description 2’
We wrote about it earlier:
“I’ll add the ability to edit meta-description, seo description, and even to add/inject product category descriptions to the top or bottom of your shop to create better landing pages.”

Added category description function below SEO title in FWW 2.07 is nice, but should be limited just to the category pages. All descriptions should be unique, so it should appear only at: https://foundthru.com/filter/toys/
Currently the same duplicate description is available on hundreds of pages e.g.:
https://foundthru.com/filter/toys/
https://foundthru.com/filter/toys/black
https://foundthru.com/filter/aeroplane-toys/toys/
https://foundthru.com/filter/aeroplane-toys/toys/black
If there is another attribute active there should be possibility to add another description. There should be available a repeater meta box with a description field and list of available terms from which we can create combination of filters.
e.g. if existing filters are:
1) product_cat ‘smartphones’ 2) pa_brand ‘apple’ 3) pa_color ‘gold’
show custom seo description:
‘lorem ipsum’

More control over this will be added in the next release. I’ll also try and add the ‘repeater’ meta box to give more control here.
January 15, 2019 @ 7:52 pm
Could you please restore the old url structure?
maincategory/subcategory
https://foundthru.com/filter/baking/bakeware/
and remove the current one:
subcategory/maincategory
https://foundthru.com/filter/bakeware/baking/
Why? It creates duplicate content and the new url structre duplicates the default woocommerce category pages which are automatically added to the sitemap, so we don’t have to add the new links manually again.

Hi – this was fixed back then. Sorry about the temporary bug.
July 27, 2019 @ 2:32 pm
This has been implemented in 2.22 due out shortly.
There’s also a KB about it now:
