hello I have created a filtered archive here: hidden link

check out this search:
hidden link

you can see in this search that some of the filters have no options available. (see Secondary
& Housing Material for example). This is good, but the filter's label is still visible, and looks strange just sitting there with no explaination.

I would like to either hide the filter label if there are no options available for that search, or else display something like "no options" underneith of it.

is this possible?

Hi Branden,

Thank you for getting in touch.

Unfortunately this isn't possible to do without the use of custom code. Some fields are hidden completely given that their values are displayed directly. One example is a checkbox. If the values are hidden then you will only see the label.

What you can do is set the action for the Checkboxes to get disabled rather than have their values hidden.

Please let me know if this helps.
Thanks,
Shane
