This commit reverts the functionality introduced in PR #26260
(later refined by #27175, #27190, #27508) in which filtering by
attribute using the layered nav widget was improved to handle the
cases of variations out of stock. The revert is a response to the
numerous problems reported by users in Woo 4.4 and 4.5
Not all the code has been reverted, only the code that resulted in
visible functionality changes. Thus, the code that generates
term relationships for variations is still in place to keep database
consistency and to keep the reverting changes to the minimum needed.
This bug was introduced in #26260. The sequence is:
1. WC_Query::adjust_posts_count runs, to handle found_posts filter,
this indirectly executes wc_setup_loop.
2. At this point $GLOBALS['wp_query']->max_num_pages hasn't been set
yet, and has a value of 0. Thus the loop variable total_pages
is set to 0.
3. Later wc_setup_loop runs again and this time
$GLOBALS['wp_query']->max_num_pages is already set, but since
the loop variable total_pages already exists, it keeps its
value of 0.
4. The pagination controls never show if total_pages is less than 2.
The fix consists of hooking into the_posts to set the value of
total_pages again, at that point $GLOBALS['wp_query']->max_num_pages
is already set.
PR #26260 introduced a handler for 'found_posts' filter in WC_Query
class in order to adjust the count depending on the visibility
of variation products. However the handler incorrectly assumed
that the filter was triggered only when listing products, when
actually it's also triggered for any post type e.g. pages.
In these cases the post count was set to zero, which caused bugs.
Now the handler starts with the originally supplied posts count,
and only decrements it when a post is a product AND is not visible.
Now, if there are filters present the logic is as follows:
- For multiple filtering values of the same attribute:
the product is visible if there's at least one variation
that has one of the filtering values associated to the attribute,
or if there's at least one variation having the attribute
with a value of "Any".
- For filtering by more than one attribute:
the product is visible if there's at least one variation that
is visible for ALL the attributes according to the above rule.
Note that this is irrespective of the type of logic configured for
the filter (OR or AND).
Two adjustments were needed:
- Adjust the count even when there's no nav filtering in the query.
This is necessary to present the proper products count.
even when the woocommerce_product_is_visible filter is used.
- Account for the case where $GLOBALS['wp_query']->posts
returns objects instead of ids (for example when viewing
a product page).
Product attributes are currently recorded as terms in
wp_term_relationships (product attributes are actually taxonomies).
In the case of variable products this is true for the main product,
but not for the variations. The attributes used to define variations
are stored as post meta, but nothing is recorded in the term
relationships table.
This is a problem when using the layered nav filtering plugin,
since the attribute counters displayed are calculated based solely
on the contents of the term relationships table. Adding meta queries
would be really messy (especially when the widget is configured
with AND operator) and would probably also hurt performance.
This commit adds a change to store the attributes for variations
as term relationships, additionally to storing them as post meta.
Terms are stored on variation creation, and updated/deleted together
with the variation as appropriate. "Any" variations (stored in meta
as empty values) are not stored as terms.
Additionally, a database upgrade is included in order to backfill
terms for already existing products.
The layered nav filtering doesn't work well with variable products
when some variations have stock and other don't. When a term is
selected in the widget, a variable product having no stock for
the variation corresponding to that term but having stock for
other variations will be displayed, but it shouldn't.
This commit fixes that by introducing two changes:
- A new override of "is_visible" for WC_Product_Variable that
looks at the supplied filters, compares them against the corresponding
available variations and calculates the visibility based on
the query type (OR or AND).
- A hook on the "found_posts" filter in WC_Query, that adjusts
the posts count based on the found products visibility
when there are filters available; this is needed to sync the
"displaying X posts" messages and the paging when variable
products are hidden due to stock status.
Additionally, the visibility calculated in "found_posts" is cached
as loop variables so that it isn't calculated again when actually
displaying the products.
It is possible for a later duplicate webhook to be fired too early if
the same webhook triggers in one request more than once with the updated
changes from the second one missing if it happens too quickly.
This queues all webhook to be register on shutdown instead of just
syncronous ones to make sure all data from the request is updated first
before the webhook gets queued.
