I installed this module for a community site where users will search for other users by Topic. Using the Profiles module I created a List Selection field, and using the Profile Checkboxes module I set the Display Field Type as Checkboxes (Multiple Choice). In the View I set the Filter Operator as "is one of" then I set Display Exposed Filter (using Better Exposed Filters module) as Checkboxes/Radio Buttons. The problem is that when a user Registers or Updates their Topic selection in their Profile, if they have chosen more than one option then they do not show up in the search results. Only if they have selected one Topic (one checkbox) will they appear in a search result. The whole point of using Checkboxes is to allow multiple Topics by which the user can be searched and I have to think a similar idea is the rationale for this module. Is this bug being addressed or does anyone know of other modules for this purpose?

I think the issue is with the Filter Operator as "is one of" ... but I only have two options "is one of" or "is not one of"... is there a module to include other operators, such as "is any of" which is what I need in this case?

You're right, you need a "is any of" type of filter option because the multiple values are stored in the same database column as comma-limited values. This is a Views issue and beyond the capabilities of what this module provides.

So, what would be a solution? Anyone found a way to work around this?
