Hey, I'm making a site which lets users choose from music genres their favorite one(s). I have created multiple check box with 12 different music genres and made this field searchable on user list.

Let say user selects jazz as their genre, then I can find that user while doing search with multiple check box. However if user selects jazz and any other genre, then I can't find him when doing a search with multiple check box. So in nutshell I can find users only when they have choosen one genre. If they choose two or more, they're not longer visible on search results.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Oh yeah, I'm using Community Builder 1.9 with 2.5.11 Joomla, if that matters.

I did a search before posting this topic, but didn't find exact solution and now did a search again after nant's reply, just bit different words on second time and I found what I was looking for:

www.joomlapolis.com/forum/153-professional-member-support/219849-solved-search-function-on-multiple-check-box#221669


So I needed edit Search criteria on bottom of User list page from 'Simple Exact match' to 'Simple Any word match'.
