I’ve got a new problem for you.
In the latest version (1.0.3 or whichever it is), I am trying to filter using specific categories with the option to select all categories.
Currently the plugin only allows either filter by all categories OR filter by specific categories. I require both functions.

To be a bit clearer, here is an example of what I’m trying to do:
K2 Categories:
Category A
Category B
Category C

JA K2 Filter & Search Module:
Category

• All Categories
• Category A
• Category B
• Category C

How can I get the ‘All Categories’ function working whilst still allowing the user to filter by specific categories when Categories A-C are selected?

Just to be helpful, I’ll share my solution.
I was thinking way too hard with customizing php and what not.

There’s an easy solution!
Create a parent category in K2 called ‘All Categories’, which has Category A, B, C as children.

5 in the morning sometimes gets you doing things the hard way :laugh:
