    You must not use a taxonomy, category, tags or meta key more than once in a form. Instead you would need additional custom taxonomies. Here is a really awful preachy lecture I wrote 🙁 :

    Sorry about the tone, but the message is right and it links to good plugins. If I missed anything (I probably did, my apologies), follow up and nudge me.

    Thank you for the advice Trevor. It’s gotten me further but now I’m running into another issue…

    Per your advice in the article, I installed Advanced Custom Fields and used that to set values for each of the portfolio pages. I then added a search field using the Post Meta type. It is recognizing the Field Name from ACF and showing that values are there, but instead of showing the designated names of the values, it will say “field-35436846426820” or something like that.

    I also tried it with ACF’s numerical field type, and it is displaying everything as set to “0” regardless of what number I put.

    Is there something I can do to get it to display the correct names of the values?

    Thanks again.

    ACF creates 3 meta keys per field. Let us say you had a field with the title Country. ACF might create meta keys like:

    _country
    field-35436846426820
    country

    You must use the last one. I suspect you are using the first.
