- Long-tail SEO URLs like /product-category/dogs/brand/dogsrus/colour/white/ to pull in Google traffic

Rated 5 out of 5 across 13 reviews, and backed by a 60-day money-back guarantee.
Some things could not be fully optimised by Scalability Pro alone which is why Super Speedy Filters was created. Our filters are built with modern hand-crafted SQL code and custom ajax handlers to transform the speed of your filtering, regardless of the size of your website.
- Incredible variety of display and filtering options
- Comprehensive SEO control for short and long tail archive pages
- Includes our Smart Variation tech – filtering to ‘red’ items shows the red variation image and only for those products which are actually in stock in red. Clicking the item takes you to the product page with red already selected.
- Stop losing sales – our custom ajax handler & hand-crafted SQL means filtering happens instantly!
- Get more traffic – we build long-tail URLs for Googlebot like /product-category/dogs/brand/dogsrus/color/white/ and provide total control over canonical URLs and Googlebot indexing.
- Works perfectly and sub-second with WooCommerce – All other post type filtering coming soon
Super Speedy Filters has been built from the ground up to be lightning fast – as always, we test everything against our reference million product store. It works perfectly in combination with our Super Speedy Search and Scalability Pro plugins.
Super Speedy Filters takes advantage of and requires MySQL 8 or MariaDB 10.2.2 or later. MySQL 8 has been out since 2018 and MariaDB 10.2.2 since 2016, so all good hosts now provide upgrade options to MySQL 8 or MariaDB instead of MySQL 5.7.
Rated 5 out of 5 by real stores at real scale
Super Speedy Filters holds a 5 out of 5 rating across 13 reviews, many from shops running tens of thousands of products.
“We were looking for a filter plug-in that was compatible with our shops with 30-70 thousand products. Until then, no other filter was able to process such quantities satisfactorily and fulfil our wishes.”
Rene Jakob
“I tested every filter plugin out there, all of them slowed down the site. Sound familiar? That’s when I found Super Speedy. With lightning-fast load times and outstanding support, any tweaks or fixes are implemented in no time.”
Diana Switajewska
“Best effing Woo filter on the planet. Period.”

What Super Speedy Filters gives you back
- Stop losing sales to slow filters. When filters take seconds, shoppers give up. Instant AJAX filtering keeps them browsing and buying.
- Free traffic from long-tail pages. SSF builds clean, indexable archive URLs and gives you full control over which ones Google sees, so your brand and attribute pages can rank.
- Your catalogue stops being the limit. Whether you run 30,000, 70,000 or a million products, filtering stays fast, so you can add every supplier and every attribute.
- Fewer dead clicks. Smart Variations shows the exact in-stock variant a shopper filtered for, and takes them to it with that option already selected.
- It fits your site. It inherits your theme styling by default, drops into any builder, and adds a widget area above the archive so you are not stuck with just the sidebar.

Lightning Fast
The whole reason Dave Hilditch made Super Speedy Plugins was to create plugins that make WordPress fast, regardless of how large you grow.
Why choose Super Speedy Filters?
All competitor widgets that we have tested suffer the same problem – they have poorly designed code that either performs 1000s of queries per page (you can check yours with query monitor) or performs fast but large queries that then take seconds or even minutes to process in PHP. On our demo 1,000,000 product store our competition take over a minute to generate the filters on the archive page while Super Speedy Filters takes under a second!
The difference in WordPress and WooCommerce speed and scalability once you eliminate bad code is phenomenal.
We develop and test against a 1,000,000 product store and have superusers who help us test beta releases so you can rest assured that speed and scalability of your shop filters will never be an issue again!

What's new in Super Speedy Filters?
View full changelog →- Fixed the "Show but delay execution" filter still not loading on search results on some sites (typically HTTPS/staging). The lazy-load request used an absolute REST URL from `rest_url()`, which could come back as `http://` or a different host and be blocked by the browser before any request was sent, so nothing showed in the network tab. It now uses a root-relative URL that always matches the page's own scheme and host.
- Improved delayed filters ("Show but delay execution") staying empty on search results pages. Two causes: the lazy-load request used a hard-coded /wp-json/ address that failed on sites using plain permalinks or forcing trailing slashes (the browser cached the redirect, so the request silently never completed), and the endpoint that builds the filter was re-deferring it instead of rendering its options. Filters now load correctly regardless of your permalink settings. If a filter was previously stuck empty, clear your page/object cache after updating.
- Fixed the per-filter "Show but delay execution" option on search results pages. Previously the deferred filter only ever populated when it was inside a popout/popover container; with "No container" (and minimizable/accordion) the filter box showed but its options never loaded. Now every container type works: filters in a container load when the shopper opens/hovers/expands them, and filters with no container load automatically just after the page finishes rendering. Updated the option's help tooltip to explain this and recommend (but not require) a container.
- Fixed filter counts falling back to the slower query path on stores that use Super Speedy Listings (formerly Super Speedy Archives) to build the object_ancestors table. SSF now recognises the Listings-built table for its fast filter-count path instead of only its own copy, via a shared readiness check (ssf_object_ancestors_ready()).
- Fixed `wp ssf rebuild` leaving the object-ancestors "table ready" status stuck showing "processing" on sites with a persistent object cache (Redis/Memcached). The rebuild now clears the cached status flags so the table is correctly reported as ready — previously this could mislead the admin notices and the automatic rebuild trigger until the cache expired.
- Changed use of <p style="display:none"> to HTML comments instead for VERBOSE DEBUG mode.
