Tag Filtering

  • bujaman47 · Member ·

    I was wondering if anyone can help me out on this. I have tagged entries with multiple tags, and want to allow people to filter through the tags. Example: Multiple entries are tagged with “food” “beef” “cheese” etc… others are tagged with “food” “cheese” “wine”. I want people to be able to select the “food” tag, then select “cheese” and get all posts that contain both “food” and “cheese.” Is this possible? I would like to be able to do it for many levels, but am at a loss for getting it done. Any help would be wonderful!! Thanks.

    I don’t think you can do this using the WP.com hosted solution.

    I’m pretty sure that it would be fairly easy to write your own WP plug-in for a self-hosted blog (or probably find one that does this already).

    However, you can just use categories like:

    Food
    — Beef
    —- BBQ
    —- etc.
    — Cheese
    —- Brie
    —- Cheddar
    —- etc.
    Drinks
    — Wine
    —- Chardonnay
    —- etc.
    — Beer

    Oh, I wish I could edit my previous comments. The category display above won’t fix the multiple tag query like you need, but it’s just another way of organizing it, etc.
