Advance Usage (For Advance Users)

It’s very easy to modify result item template and to add your own custom query by using Filters:

Filter for modifying entry html (xx is filter id)

function example_callback( $html, $entry ) {
    ...
    return $html;
}
add_filter( 'wfa_directory_entry_html_xx', 'example_callback', 10, 2 );

Filter for modifying filter query args (xx is filter id)

function example_callback( $args, $filters, $form_data ) {
    ...
    return $args;
}
add_filter( 'wfa_directory_query_args_xx', 'example_callback', 10, 3 );

Form submit to another page

For showing only form and submitting on another url use following shortcode example

[wfa_filter id="xx" submit_url="https://www.example.com/some-other-page"]
