Member directory search not working

    I can’t seem to filter a custom field created using the plugin.

    I created some custom fields for the registration form called “Main category1” and “Category”…just as a quick test, this works beautifully and the conditional fields are superb. Everything is fine and I could approve user profile (i set it to not auto approve).

    The issue is even though the user is approved I can’t find them when I filter the members page:

    From this screenshot you could see the Main category and subcategory selected at registration: https://prnt.sc/elnpfp

    When I try to filter for even 1 of the options no results come up, look here: https://prntscr.com/elnrec as you can see i searched for “Rent” and it showed no results.

    The permalink appeared like this:

    https://plugins.uriahsvictor.com/members/?tld_um_maincat=Rent&tld_um_category=&tld_um_category_9=&um_search=1

    Here is the link to the test site you can try filtering for “Painter” and same issue… https://plugins.uriahsvictor.com/members/

    What’s going on here? Thank you for your help I appreciate it.

    Hi,

    This is hard to check since none of your four test users show anything in their profiles. At the risk of sounding simplistic, something like a typographical mismatch could throw off the search function. You might be sure that all four users are approved (admin obviously is) and that the conditional field entries match identically to what’s in the member directory. I also see that you have two users with identical first and last names; maybe remove or edit one of them to change that.

    Good luck,
    Rob

    Strange thing is I had to create a brand new member directory other than the default one and it seems to work now.

    Is there any way via the options for the members directories search to work in an “OR” format and not try to match every search field selected?
