Kowal Tags Bar adds a tag bar above the product listing category / search results, where tags work as a quick filter for a single dropdown (select) attribute. The solution is independent of the layered navigation design — tags are always displayed above the products, making it a great fit for stores where customers expect marketplace-style quick filters.
Key features:
Dropdown = single selection simple behavior: one active tag at a time.
Hide empty tags: the module displays only the options that have results in the current category and subcategories the active tag always remains visible so it can be turned off.
Two link modes:
Default (Magento): standard parameter ?tags=ID
Amasty: retrieves SEO URLs from the filter layer (Shopby) and uses them in tags.
Appearance configuration in the admin panel: font, background, and border colors including separate settings for the active tag, plus custom text such as Tags: and All.
Diagnostic logging helps with implementation on custom themes / filter configurations.
The module is ideal for stores with a large number of products, where customers first choose a style / collection / purpose and then refine the remaining filters.
Installation and configuration: install the module via Composer, run bin/magento setup:upgrade, deploy static content, and clear cache. In Stores > Configuration enable Kowal Tags Bar, select the dropdown attribute used for tags, choose link mode Magento or Amasty Shopby, configure colors and labels, and verify behavior on category and search result pages. For custom themes enable diagnostic logging to validate tag rendering and URLs.
Version history: initial release with tag bar for a single dropdown attribute, hide empty tag logic scoped to current category and subcategories, Magento default query parameter links and Amasty Shopby SEO URL integration, admin appearance settings for normal and active tags, and diagnostic logging for troubleshooting.
Implemented in real Magento 2 stores
Case Study: smmash.pl (sportswear filtering)
In the smmash.pl store, customers browse sportswear categories where the purchase decision often starts with a quick choice: discipline, collection, purpose (e.g., “BJJ,” “MMA,” “gym,” “outdoor”). Classic layered navigation works correctly, but it requires opening side filters and making several clicks.
Implementing Kowal Tags Bar added a “tags” bar above the listing, based on a dropdown attribute (e.g., “Sport / Collection”). Results:
users immediately see the most important options and filter the list with one click,
frustration from clicking filters with no results was eliminated (tags without products are not displayed),
in Amasty mode, links are SEO-friendly and consistent with the existing URL structure,
mobile listings are easier to read because the key filter is “above the products” rather than hidden in a side panel.
Questions and Answers
Question
Can you select multiple tags at once?
Answer
Not currently — this is intentionally a single selection (dropdown) to keep the UX simple and fast.
Question
Why can't I see some tags?
Answer
The module hides options with no results in the current category and subcategories. If a tag has 0 products, it is not displayed.
Question
Do tags affect existing filters and sorting?
Answer
They do not break them. Depending on the URL mode, the module builds links so that the filter works predictably on the listing.
