HELP! Need a sidebar filter app that's compatible with B2B Wholesale Club by Orbit

Topic summary

Goal: identify a sidebar product filter fully compatible with Orbit’s B2B Wholesale Club.

Tried apps and issues:

  • Smart Product Filter & Search (Globo): caused major conflicts.
  • Filterific (Orbit): reportedly compatible, but difficult to use and lacks features.

New suggestion: AI Search & Product Filter (Ultimate Search and Filter). It offers merchandising/product visibility by customer group, which can leverage customer tags for B2B-only product display. Recommendation to test it on an unpublished theme to avoid affecting the live store.

Current status: the original poster appreciates the idea and may use the product visibility feature if full compatibility can’t be achieved. No confirmed solution yet; discussion remains open.

We are trying to find a sidebar filter app that will be 100% compatible with B2B Wholesale Club by Orbit. We tried a great app called Smart Product Filter & Search by Globo, but it conflicted heavily. We have also tried Filterific by Orbit, which we a re told works, but it is very hard to use with little features. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hi @dreadnought ,

Do you use customer tag for B2B customers? This filter app AI Search & Product Filter has the merchandising feature to show specific products based on customer group. You can try it on an unpublished theme without affecting other themes in your store to see if it meets your requirements.

Hi. Thanks for this reply. Using the product visibility feature is a very good idea if I can’t get it to work properly. I appreciate it very much.
