FacetWP’s Load More functionality is not a standalone plugin but a Pager Type built directly into the core FacetWP plugin (as of version 3.9+). It allows you to replace traditional pagination with a button that appends results to the existing list without a page refresh.
This is EXACTLY the same product as distributed by the developer. Sales Page
Facet Type: Pager
Pager Type: Load more
Interaction: AJAX-based (appends content to the current listing).
Visual Elements: Customizable “Load More” button text and “Loading…” state text.
Behavior: When clicked, it fetches the next set of results and appends them to the container with the .facetwp-template class.
When you create a new facet and set the type to Pager, selecting Load more reveals these specific settings:
| Option | Description |
| Load more text | The text displayed on the button (e.g., “View More Products”). |
| Loading text | The text displayed while the AJAX request is in progress (e.g., “Fetching…”). |
| Scroll target | (Optional) Allows the page to automatically scroll to a specific element after loading. |
PHP Version: 7.0 or higher (PHP 8.x is fully supported).
WordPress Version: 5.0 or higher.
Template Requirement: Your results listing must be wrapped in a container with the class facetwp-template.
JS Dependencies: Requires jQuery to function (FacetWP includes a setting to ensure jQuery is loaded if your theme doesn’t provide it).
Page Builders: Fully compatible with Elementor, Beaver Builder, and Bricks.
Note: In Breakdance, you must use the FacetWP Pager element rather than the builder’s native “Load More” button to ensure the AJAX filtering stays in sync.
To display the button on your front-end, use the standard pager shortcode:
[facetwp facet="your_facet_name"]
If you are a developer and want to trigger the “Load More” logic manually via JavaScript, you can use the FWP.refresh() method while setting the FWP.is_load_more flag to true.
