horizontal vs vertical dropdown filter does not stay open

[Nicole]

when i toggle my filter bar from horizontal to vertical and select a filter, the display remains open (good so people remember which filter they chose) and advancing through months does not close it out/reset it. in the horizontal view, both of these things happen. is this a bug, or is there a fix?

sorry i clicked submit too quickly. what i mean is in the horizontal view, the dropdown only stays open for as long as the month stays the same. it does appear to retain the selection, however, without the form staying open it is confusing what the viewer may be looking at. thank you.

Hey Nicole,

For the dropdown filter style, what you’re seeing there on the site is the correct functionality and display.

If you haven’t already, however, you can change the filter style and that might work better for you needs here. To do this, head to Events > Settings > Filter Bar in your admin. Then, find the filter you want to update, open it, and change the “Type” to something else. Here’s a screenshot of this “Type” option for reference → https://cloudup.com/cRXydzRDaLF

Depending on your theme, the UI of one of these “Types” might work better for you. For example, I tested out the “Checkboxes” type on my local test site, and even after applying the filters, the dropdown checkboxes stay open, which might be the type of functionality you want for yourself (see here) → https://cloudup.com/cXWyxC6m0c8

Let us know if this helps!

Thanks,
George
