    Hi,

    I’m doing a fairly simple filter on a category — and for some of the categories it doesn’t pull all of the results, and for the life of me I can’t figure out why. It works for some categories, but for others it only pulls a few of the results. I’m a relative newbie to the WP world — but liking the plugin thus far!

    Could this be a caching issue? I’m stumped.

    Thanks!

    Hi there,

    Have you checked under the tabs “tags, categoreis and taxonomies” and made sure everything is empty there?

    Also may sure the “Post meta” tab is empty and try again.

    Are you by any chance using non-latin characters in any of the above tests?

    Let me know.

    Thanks

    Great — this seems to have fixed it. I had some entries in ‘include’ in the tags, categories, and taxonomy section — but I guess it wasn’t necessary.

    On another note — just wanted to second the need to be able to filter on multiple categories… I spent a while trying to get it to work before i realised that it was something that you might be working on supporting.

    Many Thanks!!

    Can you explain a little more on the need to be able to filter on multiple categories?

    Thanks

    Sounds good. I’ll convert to taxonomies, and that should solve the problem, no?

    While I have your attention — perhaps I can ask another question?

    I would like to add collapsible checkboxes in the search&filter form (see, for example: http://www.w3schools.com/bootstrap/bootstrap_ref_js_collapse.asp) as we have many criterion on which to filter so it takes up a lot of space. Is there any advice you can give on how to approach that? Would I need to hook in somehow? Or do I have to change the S&F source code… I’d rather not, of course!

    Any advice you can give would be appreciated.

    Thanks!

    Hi again sorry for the delay.

    Yup taxonomies should solve it.

    RE the other stuff, if you know what you are doing its possible to implement this to S&F however it could be made easier.

    I’m making a modification in 2.0 that restructures the html slightly which might make this slightly easier to setup, but I won’t be able to help set this up though – its all possible.

    At some point in the future I will either be adding tutorials about this kind of thing or possibly providing “themes” or options in the admin so you just have to check a box to enable functionality like this – but its just thoughts at this stage.

    Thanks
