Problem with filtering by various attributes

[alinadivante]

Current behavior

When the user tries to filter the results with another attribute, he gets more results instead of limiting them to the selected parameters.

And color tiles in the filter are not visible ..

Expected behavior

User should receive results consistent with the selected attributes in the filter (yellow, size xxx, price 50-100).

Steps to reproduce the issue

1. Go to e.g Women category
2. Open filter
3. Choose color
4. Choose size
5. Choose price

Regarding the first problem in this issue with number of products matching selected filters: Capybara uses product_count property from received response from Magento - each category in Magento has assigned a number of products that belongs to them - but it looks like this number is not related with "real" number of products. Using product_count seems to be the only way we have to show number of products in Filter sidebar and this invalid number can't be fixed in Capybara.

Regarding the second problem with colors: unfortunately the color codes we are receiving from Magento for some example category are as follows:

[
  {"id":"51","label":"51","type":"color","count":"","color":"51"},
  {"id":"52","label":"52","type":"color","count":"","color":"52"},
  {"id":"53","label":"53","type":"color","count":"","color":"53"},
  {"id":"56","label":"56","type":"color","count":"","color":"56"},
  {"id":"57","label":"57","type":"color","count":"","color":"57"},
  {"id":"59","label":"59","type":"color","count":"","color":"59"},
  {"id":"60","label":"60","type":"color","count":"","color":"60"},
  {"id":"49","label":"Black","type":"color","count":"","color":"Black"},
  {"id":"50","label":"Blue","type":"color","count":"","color":"Blue"},
  {"id":"58","label":"Red","type":"color","count":"","color":"Red"}
]

For some of them there are meaningless numbers rather than strings (color names), and these numbers can't be converted to equivalent color names, because they are configured in Magento in that way. I'm not sure how to fix/improve this issue.

It would be nice to hear a second opinion from @qiqqq or @gibkigonzo 😏

@psmyrek regarding to the color codes I fixed it by setting this config entities.attribute.loadByAttributeMetadata to false on the local.json

Hi guys, do you have any news about this? I'm having the same issue. I've tried to set entities.attribute.loadByAttributeMetadata to false on the local.json, but I'm still getting only the ID's of the filter.
