 * Is there anyway I can make the search filter dropdowns multi select or checkboxes,
   so users can pick multiple terms from each taxonomy.
 * I noticed the plugin uses ‘wp_dropdown_categories($args);’ to create
    the dropdowns
   and was wondering if I could make any modifications there to change how they 
   behave.
 * I noticed in the codex it suggests using ‘wp_category_checklist()’ but
    I cant
   get this to work.

 * Tkhan,
    I am planing on adding the feature to the premium version soon. However,
   check out [this](http://geomywp.com/support/forums/topic/taxonomy-checkboxes-instead-of-drop-down/)
   link. One user got it working and posted it.

 * Thanks ninjew,

   version and for more detailed info on the topic at the geomywp.com support forum.
 * Again thanks for a fast response.
