Admin Custom Field Filter
Filter products by any custom field in the Shopware 6 admin product listing. No coding required — configure filters via the admin panel and get accurate results.
The description shows what such a plugin can do. We tailor the scope to your shop after a short needs analysis and usually deliver within a few days.
In short
- Restore the custom attribute filtering capability your team had in Shopware 5 — without rebuilding your data model
- Save hours per week by locating products instantly through precise custom field filters instead of scrolling through unfiltered listings
- Eliminate incorrect filter results — the plugin uses a properly implemented DAL query that returns accurate product counts every time
Why this extension
Without the plugin
Managing a large product catalog in Shopware 6 becomes significantly harder when you cannot filter your product listing by the custom fields your team relies on every day. Administrators who migrated from Shopware 5 know this gap well — in the previous version, custom attribute filters in the article overview were straightforward to set up using SQL queries. In Shopware 6, that capability is missing from the standard interface, forcing teams into slow, manual workarounds that do not scale.
With the plugin
This extension fills that functional gap directly. It adds fully configurable custom field filters to the Shopware 6 admin product listing, with correct backend filtering powered by the native Data Abstraction Layer (DAL). Unlike partial community solutions that display a filter panel but return zero results, this plugin handles the DAL query correctly — so every filter you configure actually works. No custom code, no developer involvement needed for day-to-day configuration.
How it would work
- Select Your Custom Fields
After installation, navigate to the plugin settings in the Shopware 6 administration. You will see a list of all custom fields defined in your store. Select which fields should appear as filters in the product listing overview. Changes take effect immediately — no cache clearing or redeployment required.
- Filter Products in the Admin Listing
Open the product listing in the administration panel. The custom fields you configured will appear in the filter sidebar alongside the standard Shopware filters. Select a value and the listing updates instantly, showing only products that match — powered by a correctly formed DAL criteria query for reliable, non-empty results.
- Adjust Configuration Anytime
Return to the plugin settings at any time to add, remove, or reorder filters as your catalog management needs evolve. No developer involvement is required for ongoing configuration changes.
Frequently asked questions
Is this a ready plugin I can buy?
No – it is a concept. We build it for your shop after a short needs analysis. Prices start at €100 and you get a fixed quote before we start.
Why do other solutions return zero results when filtering by custom fields?
The most common cause is an incorrectly constructed DAL (Data Abstraction Layer) criteria query on the backend. This plugin implements the filter query correctly, ensuring that the database lookup matches products that have the selected custom field value — rather than returning an empty result set.
Do I need a developer to configure the filters?
No. All filter configuration is handled through the Shopware 6 admin panel. You select which custom fields to expose as filters using a simple toggle interface. No code changes are required.
Does this plugin affect the storefront or customer-facing filters?
No. This extension operates exclusively within the Shopware 6 administration panel. It has no effect on the storefront product listing or any customer-facing filter functionality.
Can I filter by custom fields that belong to custom field sets assigned to specific product categories?
Yes. The plugin reads all custom fields registered in your Shopware 6 instance, regardless of which custom field set they belong to, and makes them available for selection in the filter configuration.
Which Shopware versions are supported?
We build it for the version your shop runs: 6.5, 6.6 or 6.7. Updates for new Shopware versions are included as long as we stay in active contact.
How long does it take?
Usually 5–10 business days after the needs analysis, depending on the agreed scope.
