Choose multiple options for one filter

We have a Film Festival and need to add multiple categories to the type of film we are showing. IE SHORT, DRAMA, COMEDY - so that all categories will be searchable when finding a film to which different categories apply.

For instance someone looking for a ‘short’ may not be looking for a ‘drama’ but would prefer a ‘comedy’ before clicking to learn more,

Thank you for your help!

Thank you!

Hi there @Sharon_Cooper :wave:

Thanks for sharing your use case with us!

Do I understand right that you just want to have a search option for the Event Type category?

Hi Max,

We want to be able to select more than one Event type per film (and would like the name Event changed to Film if possible - did ask Sonia abut this earliertoday) .
At the moment if you Select Drama you cannot select Short or Comedy with Drama - when I mixed them with /s between - the dropdown didn’t recognize the single words in the group I added and only forund one film - instead of recognizing that Drama was in the mix of: Drama / Short / War.

Can you help? Thank you for reaching out!

Thank you!

Sharon

Got you!

Unfortunately, it’s impossible to choose multiple options within one filter at once. I am really sorry!

We agree that it would be a nice enhancement, and I’ve added your idea to the Wishlist. If more users support this request, we’ll try to consider this opportunity in the future :slightly_smiling_face:

As for changing the filter name, you can do this in the Edit Texts section on the Settings tab:

Thank you for trying Max - had already added it to the wishlist!
Will follow your guide to change the name….
