Hey Everyone!

I checked to see if there was another post addressing this issue but couldn’t find one.

**CMS filter** , everything appears to be working as intended, except for the fact that using checkbox filters, when I select multiple checkboxes, it uses ‘and’ logic, instead of ‘or’ logic. So instead of showing both filters, it shows neither (because each content piece only has 1 type).

I read through the docs and couldn’t find a script or an attribute that joins all the checkboxes together as a ‘group’. I did wrap them in a div with a group class, but no success.

Was wondering if anyone else has a workaround for this or knows if I am doing something incorrectly.

Thanks so much for any feedback or assistance!

Hey @richardjamesportfoli!

The default behavior for CMS Filter is actually an OR filter, as the default match is set to any. This can be modified by the setting below.

 ![Screenshot 2025-01-28 at 13.59.42](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex013/uploads/finsweet1/original/2X/9/93ddf1c81f8cbbea698b0e700274d42b0325d407.png)

However, the behavior you describe might result from a bad setup. I see you’ve added the `fs-cmsfilter-checkbox` attribute to your checkbox buttons, which we do not use.

Can you please share the link to your staging domain so I can take a look?

Oh that’s good to know on the ‘checkbox’ attribute, I used the Finsweet library for the checkbox template, and the attribute came stock.

Here is a staging link: [https://amplifai.webflow.io/resources-new](https://amplifai.webflow.io/resources-new)

Thanks for taking a peek!

The ‘Type’ attribute and checkboxes are the ones setup, we havent setup our other filters just yet, wanted to isolate this issue first.

Hi @richardjamesportfoli!

I noticed that your setup has some attributes in the wrong place and some others that are not from the documentation.

Make sure to read the [CMS Filter](https://finsweet.com/attributes/cms-filter) documentation, follow the steps and copy attributes directly from there and it should work as you want.

You could follow this walkthrough to have a guide 💪.
