    Hello,

    I have a question that I hope is not too difficult to answer. 🙂

    Here is my scenario:

    • I have a S&F pro search setup that searches multiple Multi-select fields populated by post meta data (acf field- s).
    • I see where I can control the relationship between each of the choices operator as “AND”/”OR”.
    • I and see the setting for “Field relationships” in the General Settings tab for “AND”/”OR”.

    My question is: Is there a way to get more granular control over each field relationship? So for instance could I somehow change the query string or filter the output to allow the first 2 multi-select fields be related by AND then the 3rd multi-select field to be related by OR? Instead of just generally setting all fields to “AND”/”OR”?

    Could I use the Filter Input Object or Edit Query Arguments filters to accomplish this?

    Thanks!

    I think it might be possible using the Edit Query Arguments filter to do this. I do not recall a user asking this and achieving it, so I am unsure there are any snippets you might use, but a working knowledge of how WordPress structures its arguments would be need to code this yourself. This search would likely yield any snippets posted in our forum:
