Price Facet Type "Range Slider" breaks facets

[RTHOMASDESIGN]

If the Facet Display Type for "Price" is set to "Range Slider" (possibly if other facet types are set to range sliders), facets breaks after the user clicks a "x remove facet" button. I've verified this with stock Colossus. Sorry I can't post a link due to client restrictions – I can post some images though:

Price set to slider:


User wants to remove a specific facet:

URI ends with the last slider value for some reason -- even though in this case a specific price wasn't specified in the slider:


You'll notice that the error only occurs if the price slider is still applicable. E.g. if you select a filter and only one product applies, then the price filter won't apply, and the error won't occur if a facet is removed.

Works fine if other facet display types are used.

Anyone feel free to PM me.

Hi Ryan,

Can you post what the remove URL query string look like?

Removing one facet:
?Per_Page=48&Sort_By=disp_order&price=66-66

Clear Filters:
?Search=

Hi Ryan,

So I've been looking into this and discussing with software. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear that there is a decent way to clear a facet and not have it affect the range slider. I will be submitting a feature request, so hopefully it will be added in a future release. The best way, I can think of, to skirt the issue would be to use checkboxes for the price instead of the range slider.

Copy that. We'll use checkboxes for the time being and hope this is fixed down the line. Thanks for looking into this!

Well darn, it's such a pretty feature.
