Perimeter Solutions approached Virtina with an urgent problem—a pagination issue in the product filters on their WooCommerce website. The product filtering was inconsistent and did not meet the company's intended user-friendly performance.
The plugin used at the site is Product Filters for WooCommerce. However, this specific plugin exhibited some erratically strange pagination results. More precisely, the issue came in several forms:
Solution We Offered
After extensively analyzing the problem, Virtina's team found the source of the issue: The page builder Elementor was interfering with the product filter and pagination system.
This robust tool, which enables page design, inadvertently influenced how the system combined the pagination settings and filters, which caused Perimeter Solutions' inconsistency.
To fix this, we had to do some custom coding to break the conflict between Elementor and the product filter plugin.
In this custom solution, pagination and product filters did not overlap, which ensured smooth surfing.
The pagination would now indicate the correct number of pages and allow the users to surf through the product listings without any reset filters or faulty page numbers.
With this fix, Perimeter Solutions customers can now enjoy a website experience that is far from disruptive. Shoppers will enjoy a sleeker and more reliable shopping experience with smoother filtering and pagination.

The custom coding solution implemented by Virtina delivered the following measurable improvement benefits for Perimeter Solutions:
