Hide specific option within a facet block

Hi Corey.

The behavior you expect is the correct behavior given the defaults. However, Facet API can only work with the data that is passed to it by the backend module, and I can't seem to replicate this behavior using Apache Solr Search Integration. Therefore I would be curious to see what data is returned by Search API Solr, as I can see form your other post that that is the combo you are using.

Thanks for the post and the details,
Chris

Just to add to this, also make sure that the "Minimum facet count" is set to something higher than 0 in the facet's configuration settings. It ill be in the bottom right hand corner when you clock on the facet's "configure display" link.

Hm, weird! I'm glad it is working as expected, at least.

Thanks for posting back,
Chris

Hello : )

As for me, I have a type facet with a base page item in it. The Minimum facet count for that facet is 1.
I am using Search API with the Search API Solr backend.

As a visitor, when I click to filter out any content type item in the list (but for 'base page'), I see two items : the content type checkbox I just clicked AND a 'base page' unchecked checkbox. The latter has a facetapi-zero-results class.

I sought ways to hide the 'base page' item when it matches 0 results:
- it is not possible to hide it in bare CSS is empty because I need to hide the A (having class facetapi-zero-result), the INPUT checkbox and their parent LI altogether,
- hiding in JS with eg. a jQuery parent selector, but I do not like that option,
- in PHP, using facetapi_bonus, I'm implementing the hook_facet_items_alter :

/**
 * Implements hook_facet_items_alter.
 *
 * Hides base page content type facet items. 
 * @see facetapi_bonus module.
*/
function mymodule_search_facet_items_alter(&$build, &$settings) {
  // If current facet is for content types.
  if ($settings->facet == 'type') {
    // If base page facet item is empty, hide it.
    if (empty($build['page']['#count'])) {
      unset($build['page']);
    }
  }
}

The latter solution does work... I just wish having Minimum facet count = 1 were enough.

Thanks for the great Search API module anyway !!! : ))
