Hi I’m using Search & Filter to show results of interpreters in any one area and in any one domain – but seems to be not showing correct results – e.g. 28 interpreters (as shown in count), area Highland (9 shown in count) and select Female (27 shown in count) – I’d expect only the females from the area ‘Highland’ but all females are returned (27 as shown in count)

Page is: http://www.sasli.org.uk/directory/

any assistance appreciated

Thanks Andy

The big issue is that you must not use category (or any other form field) more than once in a form. If you have multiple parent/child relationships in categories, it might be better to have separate custom taxonomies for these. This post tries to explain this a bit better (you can use a plugin to switch category terms from category to any new taxonomy that you make, so it is not so hard to do). It is a really awful preachy lecture I wrote ? :

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

Thanks for the information Trevor

I’ll investigate this shortly – kind of new to this but think what you say is even do-able for me :o)

Thanks again

Just about to launch into the unknown of Advanced Custom Fields & Custom Post Types :o)

Can I check then, I create one new ‘Field Group’ with each of my ‘types’ by adding new Fields for each then in a new post just select these for each person:as explained in initial question?

I’ve opened the Advanced Custom Field and looks kind of straight forward but thought to give you a nudge :o)

Thanks
Andy

The above response was sitting waiting to be sent – hung there for a while – oops

Would you or other developer be available to work on my taxonomy with search and filter and if so, what are your rates??

Hi Andy. You are in the UK (I am)? Do you have:

1. A decent Internet connection
2. Skype app on a desktop or laptop (not phone or tablet, screen is too small)?
3. A mic or webcam?
4. Speakers or headset?

If so we could Skype and share screens.

Great to speak with you on Skype Andy. Some repair work to do for you now, but I think you are now on the right track. Let me know how you get on?
