It can go both ways.
A softener only performs one task capturing calcium & magnesium it is not in any way a filter.
So the sediment just passes thru a softener to be filtered by the WHF.
However, a softener has tiny resin beads a few may flow out.
Having said that, I like the WHF after the softener to filter those out as well if present.
So doing in the reverse order WHF/softener has that one issue
An argument can be made placing the WHF after, that the chlorine will dissolve the salt faster or potassium chloride
I don't think there's any appreciable amount dissolved to concerned with.
Either way will work.
