// How to Create Custom Facet Types

Introduction

FacetWP includes support for creating your own facet types.

Register the Facet Type

add_filter( 'facetwp_facet_types', function( $facet_types ) {
    $facet_types['links'] = new FacetWP_Facet_Links();
    return $facet_types;
});

The Facet Class

Full Example

Below is a Links facet type, which is a minimal version of our Checkboxes facet type.

<?php

class FacetWP_Facet_Links
{

    function __construct() {
        $this->label = __( 'Links', 'fwp' );
    }


    /**
     * Load the available choices
     */
    function load_values( $params ) {
        global $wpdb;

        $facet = $params['facet'];
        $from_clause = $wpdb->prefix . 'facetwp_index f';
        $where_clause = $params['where_clause'];

        // Count setting
        $limit = ctype_digit( $facet['count'] ) ? $facet['count'] : 10;

        $from_clause = apply_filters( 'facetwp_facet_from', $from_clause, $facet );
        $where_clause = apply_filters( 'facetwp_facet_where', $where_clause, $facet );

        $sql = "
        SELECT f.facet_value, f.facet_display_value, f.term_id, f.parent_id, f.depth, COUNT(DISTINCT f.post_id) AS counter
        FROM $from_clause
        WHERE f.facet_name = '{$facet['name']}' $where_clause
        GROUP BY f.facet_value
        ORDER BY f.depth, counter DESC, f.facet_display_value ASC
        LIMIT $limit";

        return $wpdb->get_results( $sql, ARRAY_A );
    }
