    Hi,

    you’ll need the advance search filters add-on installed.

    Let us know if this helps.

    Thanks

    Hi,

    if you go to GeoDirectory >> Place Settings and add Category as an advance filter, than you can make them appear as checkbox.

    See image attached for settings.

    However the search works using the AND criteria, so if you select 2 or more categories it will only return listings that belongs to all catgeories selected.

    Anything else, would require a customization of the advance search widget and its queries.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks

    Yes, I would like to use “OR” within categories, may I know where should I amend the code for apply “OR” in the queries? Thanks a lot!

    Hi,

    I know that from next version you will have an option to select if search should be using AND or OR for custom fields.

    I’d advise against doing this edits yourself or you will lose the option to update without losing your customizations.

    Thank you

    Hi,

    That’s good, but when will the next version be launched? I need to have this options within a very short period for the site test and launch.

    Thanks!

    Hi,

    May I have the exact location of the ‘OR’ and ‘AND’ for filtering multi categories within gd_placecategory?

    Thanks a lot!

    Hi,

    the new version should be released tomorrow, please be patient.

    We don’t provide support for complex customization. It is not just a matter to change one AND to and OR. It is much more complex than that.

    Thanks
