# Filter meta keys

 * Hello!
 * First of all, thank you for a great plugin.
 * I have a question regarding meta keys.
 *  Let’s say I wanted to list different sport teams I like on my profile but also
   be able to add some other info about the teams, in separate text boxes but in
   the same row:
 * Team 1 | My favorite team | 1992
    Team 2 | My least favorite team | 1993
 * Now let’s say I want to list 50 teams. This would mean that I have a lot of text
   boxes with different meta keys but they essentially serve the same purpose.
 * So what I’m wondering is if there’s any way I could have a filter called “teams”
   that would be able to find if a certain team is mentioned on a profile?

 * That sounds really complicated. From what I can gather from your description,
   that would probably require some custom coding.
 * For the filter, have you taken a look at User Tags? You could set a maximum number
   of selections. It’s pretty useful!
