Tell us what you are trying to do?

On the page hidden link if we select the State in the drop-down selection box, I want the Cities with that State to only show.

At this time all the Cities are appearing.

Is there any documentation that you are following?

Is there a similar example that we can see?

What is the link to your site? hidden link

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

It seems you are using custom field for state and city filters.

The only way to setup the dependent filters for State and City is using the post relationship where you can add the State and City as post type and create one(State) to many (City) post relationship between State and City post types and add your state and city items.

And then add the State and City as post relationship filter.

I am so sorry its taking this long to reach back out, so what I need to do is redo the State and City customs fields. Could I filter them based on a selection from State?

No - as said with custom fields there is no such dependent drop down feature available.

You will have to setup States and Cities as custom post type and create one (state) to many (city) post relationship between the States and Cities post type and then add it as frontend filter.
