Good Day,
I have an issue with my custom search form.
My search form field is multiple-checkbox. 1. Red, 2.Blue
i need to display 1.Red only when another field [ multiple checkbox - "i am red" ] is checked.
This was good at the wp-admin but couldn't get it to work at search under Wp archieve.
Please advice. thanks !
in another word
when i check the checkbox "i am red " , another field [checkboxes] "1.red" to be appear for selection.
thanks
Hi, I'll be glad to help with this but I'm not quite sure what you're trying to accomplish. Is your site available online somewhere so I can see it? If so, can you give me access to your wp-admin area, and show me where I can find the conditional code, the custom fields, and the search form on the front-end of your site? I have enabled a private reply area so your login credentials will be secure.
HI, any update on this please.?
Hi, I'm logged in to your dev site now to check this out. I'll update you shortly.
Hi, I see what you're describing now. You would like to conditionally show and hide a filter group based on the selections in another filter. Toolset currently offers a way to limit filter inputs to the available results, but not a way to show or hide filters conditionally. For example, in the Real Estate reference site, you can see that the inputs in the "City" field are dependent upon the selection in the "State" field.

Hi,
Sad to hear this is how toolset works now , any idea why this feature was not implemented ?
it seems without this feature, the site is not in sync with the back-end now.
at the backend i should be able to do all this.
even a normal wp contact form able to do this feature.
anyway, what is your alternative suggestion for now please.
Hi Chris, i was hoping to close this case and move on. do you have any alternative suggestion on implementations ?
Lots of factors influence our developers' decisions on features to implement, including other features being prioritized, critical bug fixes and so on, but I don't have a concrete reason why this particular one is not in the current pipeline.
As an alternative, there is the approach that limits input filters to the available results as I mentioned, and then there is custom code. A custom code solution would be outside the scope of support we provide here in the forum, unfortunately. If you need professional help to implement a custom solution, we have a list of certified contractors who are qualified to help within the Toolset environment. Here is the list of our contractors:

"limits input filters to the available results " - can i use this to achieve my needs?
If i click 'for rent' , the field link to the 'for rent' will be active, if not masked ?
This type of filter works best with single select inputs. As the user selects an option in each input, the other select options update. The only visible options will be those which have available results. In your case, however, I don't think this approach will be helpful because you need the ability to select multiple options for each filter. Unfortunately the only way to achieve the effect you are looking for involves custom code.
