Filter by category on category pages

I’m wanting to filter categories on a category page; however, when I click another category, the grid looks like it’s being updated, but the second category isn’t included in the update and the checkbox for the second category is unchecked after AJAX update.

URL: http://atgusa.flywheelsites.com/category/news/?_sft_category=news,events > no Events

What am I doing wrong?

Ah. Now I understand why it does not work. You have these options selected:

Because you are on a category page (in this case news), our plugin will preselect this (as it does) and de-select any other taxonomy term of that taxonomy. With that option selected, you can only have one term selected.

What about putting a filter on just a normal page? That possible?

You could do that. But, if you turned off the settings I indicated, the filter should work fine on the category pages as well.

They are wanting a Resources page that has the filter at the bottom. This would not be an archive/category page and have nothing to do with the posts area of WordPress other than the S&F selections.

You can make it much the same as you have, if not exactly the same. You need the form and the Post Grid.

Just create a new WordPress page and use that URL in the form.
