I have a filter which has two search conditions, one is advanced. I have two drop downs, and I would like it to search when either of these drop downs has a value, not when they both do. My filter only gives results for both together and none when there is value in only one drop down.
I would like to get results if either is not empty. How to do that?
Thanks.
Hi @accts how are you?
Are you showing the information in an RPG when the dropdowns are changed?
You can try Do a search for… using constraints for both dropdowns and check the box “Ignore empty constraints” or create conditionals for the following cases:
Conditional 1 - When dropdown 1 is not empty and dropdown 2 is not empty: Do a search for (using 2 constraints for both dropdowns)
or
Conditional 2 - When dropdown 1 is not empty and dropdown 2 is empty: Do a search for (using 1 constraint for dropdown 1)
or
Conditional 3 - When dropdown 1 is empty and dropdown 2 is not empty: Do a search for (using 1 constraint for dropdown 2)
I guess you didn’t like the answer I provided in your other thread, but it does work (I know that because I actually tested it with an example that matches your use case). Did you give that suggestion a shot?
Yes. I have a RPG. It has two drop down. One is by name and the other is by tags (multi-select dropdown). I also need to sort the results by date and votes.
I tried putting conditions on the RPG. That is if one dropdown in empty and the other not, etc., a total of four condition) and even then can not seem to get it working. Adding the sort options to the two dropdowns, makes 16 condition and that just seems like a wrong way of doing this.
So my question is how to do a filter that allows any one of four conditions, with each empty or not.
An example would be wonderful.
More context since there are two threads going on this one.
Mike, you are right, I have two accounts, one for each of Bubble accounts it seems. I will close out this one so as not to cause confusion and repetition .
