    Already using search and filter and loving it. We have a new section added to the site and i’d like the filter the results like this…

    null

    Clicking on ‘London’ would filter ‘London’ results. Clicking on ‘London’ and ‘Free’ would filter ‘London + Free’ events.

    – Location / Price come from ACF custom fields.

    How easy is this to achieve? Any freelancers want to help me with this?

    THANKS!

    It is really easy to do. On the General tab, make sure that the 2 Auto Count checkboxes are ON.

    In the fields with the select boxes, make sure hide zero is ON.

    Sorry – still struggling.

    I’m using post meta > choice to try and generate a list of fields in a custom value. Is this right? (just using event_name as this has data for now).

    On front end it just shows ‘All items’

    What version of the plugin are you using, as mine has an extra option Change All Items Label? (I am using 2.2.0).

    Also, the Hide Empty box needs ticking.

    This is what it’s showing on front end?

    It’s found the acf value but just bringing through all 15 posts that have it. Only a couple of them have an actual value and that’s what I want to show..? Eg ‘London’ ‘Cambridge’ etc

    Some screenshots of backend

    See where Meta Key is _event_name?

    Look further down for the same key without the underscore. For ACF has up to 3 keys per field 🙁 Always use the one without the underscore for ACF.

    I changed it but nothing comes through when set to automatic.

    If I browse the values manually. I see them?

    These are the values I need output on the front end?

    Thanks

    Those 2 screenshots show the form UI design options for the field and they look as they generally should. Do the values show in the front end (assuming there are posts with them in use)?

    You still appear to be using v2.1.2 of the plugin? You need to be on v2.2.0 as many bugs were fixed.
