 * I am using filter expansion. When multi-filtering is applied, each expression
   between filters is processed as & and I want it to be processed as +. (Indicated
   as a union, not an intersection)
   Is it possible?

 * I’m sorry, it means Advanced Filtering, not Multifiltering.

 * Hi [@divis](https://wordpress.org/support/users/divis/)
 * Filters will use `+` when filtering by multiples of the same filter.
 * For example, the following URL is filtering for accessibility+acf tags. -> 
   [https://connekthq.com/plugins/ajax-load-more/examples/filtering/advanced-filtering/?tag=accessibility+acf](https://connekthq.com/plugins/ajax-load-more/examples/filtering/advanced-filtering/?tag=accessibility+acf)
 * Where are you seeing it not do this?

 * [@dcooney](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dcooney/) hello,
 * I use multiple taxonomies and output multiple taxonomies to filters. When represented
   by checkboxes, the same taxonomies are processed with a +, but different taxonomies
   are indicated with &.
 * Here is an example URL:
   hashtag/?y=2024&cartoonani_cate=webtoon+content&movie_cate
   =short-comedy
 * I also want to make different categories appear as + when processed together.

 * I attach the actual URL. Hashtags are categories grouped together, with + used
   for the same category but & used for distant tags (different category)..

 * individual taxonomies will be separated with `&` where as multiple selections
   in a taxonomy will be separated with a `+` as shown in the URL example provided.
 * This cannot be changed and is a standard URL format.

   First of all, thank
   you for your response. I have configured it using a filter add-on and I don’t
   want to change the filtering method based on the URL. I just hope that it will
   be processed as + configuration instead of & configuration when clicking.

 * [@divis](https://wordpress.org/support/users/divis/) This is happening because
   you have 20 taxonomy filters in your Filter instance.
 * Each individual taxonomy will be split with a &, whereas if you select multiple
   from a taxonomy, they will be split with a +.
 * This is standard URL best practices.
 * See the example here.

 * [@dcooney](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dcooney/) I want to force each
   individual categorization method into +. Finally, I would like to ask if there
   is a way to do it even with special codes. Thank you.

 * [@dcooney](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dcooney/) I’m sorry, but I really
   have to ask one last thing. Is it possible to select only one filter instead 
   of multiple clicks? Although it is a divided classification method, I would like
   only one to be selected from the entire list (not allowing multiple selections).

 * Hi [@divis](https://wordpress.org/support/users/divis/)
 * Yes, use a Radio field type. Not checkboxes.
 * Hope that helps!
