Prestashop: Faceted Search Module 3.4.0, unlimited filter depth, cannot filter deep subcategories in a category

[globox91]

Describe the bug

If I set unlimited category filter depth (0), I cannot filter displayed subcategories on category page if these subcategories aren't direct children of a category I'm currently in.
When I click on an option, ajax request executes without changing anything.

The module searches for selected categories with current category as a parent.
But with unlimited depth I can have all possible children displayed (level 2, 3 and so on)

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Set "Category filter depth" on a module configuration page to 0
2. Go to some category with possible 2, 3 etc level subcategories
3. Select one of those
4. Wait for ajax request to finish
5. See that no changes are displayed

Additional information
PrestaShop version: 1.7.6.1
PHP version: 5.6
Module version: 3.4.0

Hi @globox91,

I did not manage to reproduce the issue with PS1.7.6.1 & ps_facetedsearch v3.4.0.
When Category filter depth = 1.
I have Only the subcategories

Category filter depth = 0, I have unlimited categories

Thanks to check & feedback.

I managed to reproduce this behaviour on fresh install (1.7.6.1 + 3.4.0)

1. You need to create the following category structure (create a child for a "men" category, in this case)

1. Go to "Clothes" category ("/3-clothes")

1. Click on the new child filter option ("manChild1")
2. Now you should see that wrong behaviour :)

@globox91, thanks for these clarifications.
I manage to reproduce the issue with PS1.7.5.2 & PS1.7.6.1 & the ps_facetedsearch v3.4.0.

It was ok with the ps_facetedsearch v2.2.0.
It is a regression.
I’ll add this to the debug roadmap so that it’s fixed. If you have already fixed it on your end or if you think you can do it, please do send us a pull request!
