# How to Create WooCommerce Filter Reset Button in Elementor?

## 

- WP Filters includes a Filter Meta type with a Filter Reset item that clears every other filter item in the same widget instance.
- The Plus Addons for Elementor Pro is required for the WP Search Filters widget, and the post says Elementor, WooCommerce, and at least a few published products are prerequisites.
- The reset button is added by setting a new WP Filters item to Filter Type: Filter Meta and Select Source: Filter Reset, then changing the label with Reset Button text.

Once a shopper has stacked several filters, the fastest way back to the full catalogue is a single reset button - not unchecking each option one at a time.

The WP Filters widget's **Filter Meta** type includes a **Filter Reset** item that clears every other filter item in the same widget instance.

For the full settings tour of the **WP Search Filters** widget, see [WP Search Filters Widget Settings Overview](https://theplusaddons.com/docs/wp-search-filters-widget-settings-overview/).

***Requirement - This widget is a part of The Plus Addons for Elementor Pro, make sure it's installed & activated to enjoy all its powers.***

## Frequently Asked Questions

**Q: What do I need before adding a WooCommerce filter reset button in Elementor?**
A: Elementor free has to be installed and active, WooCommerce has to be installed and active, and you need at least a few published products. The WP Search Filters widget is a Pro widget, so The Plus Addons for Elementor Pro must also be installed and active. The setup also assumes you already have one or more Woo Filter items configured, because the reset button clears the filters inside the same widget instance.

**Q: Why is the filter reset button not showing up in my filter widget?**
A: The usual blocker is that the WP Search Filters widget itself is not enabled. In The Plus Addons for Elementor, go to Widgets, search for WP Filters, and turn its toggle on. Since this is a Pro widget from POSIMYTH, it also depends on The Plus Addons for Elementor Pro being installed and active. If those pieces are missing, the reset item will not appear in the filter area.

**Q: How does the reset button clear WooCommerce filters on the page?**
A: The reset control is added as a Filter Meta item inside the WP Filters widget, and it clears every other filter item in that same widget instance. That matters because it resets the whole filtered state at once instead of making shoppers uncheck options one by one. In practice, it is the fastest way back to the full catalogue after several filters have been stacked.

**Q: Can I use this reset button with other filter items in the same widget?**
A: The reset item is designed for a widget instance that already contains other Woo Filter items. It clears every other filter item in that same instance, so it works as a global reset for that specific filter set rather than as an isolated control. That makes it useful when you want one obvious escape hatch after multiple filters have been applied.

**Q: What label should I use for the reset button in WooCommerce filters?**
A: The button label is controlled by Reset Button text, and the default value is Reset. That field matters because shoppers need an obvious action word when they want to get back to the full product list quickly. A short label works best here since the control is meant to be fast and unambiguous inside a busy filter panel.

**Q: What related docs help after setting up a WooCommerce filter reset button?**
A: Two related docs are especially useful: [How to Show Applied Product Filters as Tags in WooCommerce in Elementor?](https://theplusaddons.com/docs/show-applied-product-filters-as-tags-in-woocommerce-in-elementor/) and [How to Enable URL Parameter Filters in Elementor? (WooCommerce &amp; Custom Posts)](https://theplusaddons.com/docs/enable-url-parameter-filters-in-elementor/). They cover what happens around filtering state and URL-driven filtering, which pairs well with a reset button when you want cleaner product browsing behavior.
