I was searching the functionality of adding a sub/category filter, but I see that it is on the module. Any plans to integrate this functionality on the component filters?

Ok, the problem is that it seems I´m not able to get two differents category fields filtering (for example, suppose that I have two classifications, Colors and Number of wheels. I would like to have an articles pages where I can filter by both)

Mmmm

What if I can use a simpler way?:

I have:
- Main Category Articles
- Secondary categories, different colors

I want to show Articles with the option to filter by colors but colors is not a subcategory from Article.


What about a field type called "secondary categories" for this? that only work as filter

Hello

it is best to use a
select,
multiselect
radio,
radioimage,
checkbox
checkboximage

when you want to achieve such filtering,

i mean avoid creating categories when you can use the above

about the categories filter, this will list subcategories of current category, and it has less filtering options than the category selector of the filtering module

Regards
