Okay -- so I did see that before and I tested it. It does work for example when
I do this:
q=query&fq={!ex=cat}categories:Jackets&facet.field={!tag=cat}categories
Thank you for that part. What I don't get is any of the other facet fields
returning their full list of values. So in my case I need all the facets to
bring back all their options.
It seems that only if I query on a field with the tag and ex filters it works
for that set of facets. So in my previous example if I queried facet 1 and
refined facet 2 by default, but still want all of facet 2.
When I do this one (there is more to this, this is just to abbreviate the
example):
q=query&fq={!ex=cat}categories:Jackets&fq={!ex=adv}adventures:Camping&facet.field={!tag=cat}categories&facet.field={!tag=adv}adventures
It does a refine so that the facets for categories and the facets for
adventures go back to being restrained.
If this is solved, my next problem is how to do the multi-select query so that
if I did have all of categories or adventures returning like I want, when two
or more of each are selected, what does the filter query look like?
Thank you, I am amazed at this list and the responsiveness.
