Tell us what you are trying to do?
<< I have created a view for custom post type, It has two different taxonomies. We have used those taxonomies as filters checkbox. I would like to add a new option "All" in the filter. So, when someone clicks on "All" checkbox, all the checkboxes (related to that filter) should be checked and un-checked. Please suggest some solution which require less or no custom code to archive this.

What is the link to your site?

Hello,
Since Toolset does not provide a "Select All" checkbox feature for custom search filters, any solution is going to require custom JavaScript code. This other ticket includes some example code that you can use as a guide to create your own custom solution. You can add custom code to a View's JS editor panel. Note that this is custom code and is not supported here in the forums, so you may need to enlist the assistance of a developer to make this work exactly like you'd expect.
