    This should work if, in the General settings you have Auto Count enabled (which is OK to use unless you have many, many thousands of posts) and in each form element you have set them to hide empty values.

    I think I was not quite clear in explaining my issue.

    I have checked hide the empty values in each form elements. So whenever any taxonomy is empty it doesnt shown up in the drop down section of the form.

    What I really want is
    Instead of just pre-populating all the non empty product categories. Can the S&F just load the product categories for which the hobby (custom taxonomy) matches.

    take a look at http://www.hobbygiri.com/shop/

    Here, when I select hobby “Bikes”, then when the page reloads, the product categories dropdown should only contain the product categories for the products which match the hobby taxonomy – Bikes.

    Right now, all the dropdowns (search elements) in the S&F work independently.

    Let me know if I am clear this time.

    Nice looking site 🙂 Clean. I LIKE that.

    Can you send me a private reply with a login url, an admin username and password, and I will look to find the problem for you?

    Ok

    I enabled auto count and update the form. I have enabled Ajax and set the results container and pagination. See if it looks OK now?

    Hi Trevor,

    I checked the changes made by you.
    Its EXACTLY they way I wanted. I am overwhelmed seeing the results.

    Ajax pagination also works fine, its just that results text doesnt get updated with the new results (I think thats a theme issue)

    Anyways I am not using AJAX. And when loading it this way the result text shows correct numbers.

    Lastly, I believe just by enabling auto count, all the filters work together and hide out whichever is empty.(I should have figured this out earlier. Its better late than never).

    The S&F filter on our website is the main feature and with this update, its will be so much easier for users to find their right products.

    Thank you once again. I will highly recommend S&F plugin to anyone who uses wordpress.
