 * Dear all, I’ m trying to create a dictionary and I stored all words using the
   explanatory dictionary so, it contains two kinds of dictionaries the first is
   the historical one and the second is the dialect one.
    I tried to create a query
   to list only one but it seems impossible the list contains both dictionaries 
   what can I do to filter them?
 * Thank you

 * Hi mrzpro,
 * I’m not sure what you mean. Can you explain how you created “dictionaries”? Are
   those custom post types, or meta data?
 * Thanks,

 * Hi Jonathan, thank you for your prompt reply I do not understand what you mean,
   as I said I used the plugin “Explanatory Dictionary” that has a possibility to
   create more dictionaries (I create two dict), it seems work like categories and
   inside your plugin I have no possibility to find/check them…..
    if it is possible
   I can send you access data….

 * Sorry, I misunderstood (trying to do too many things at once :)).
 * You need to add a Filter to your query. That plugin will automatically create
   one named “Taxonomy: Dictionaries”. Then edit that filter and check only the 
   Term you want to be shown. See attached screenshots.
 * Adding the “Taxonomy: Dictionaries” filter:
    ⌊Adding custom taxonomy filter⌉
 * Selecting which dictionary term to filter by:
    ⌊Selecting QW Terms⌉
 * Let me know how this goes.

 * Ahh, I see a few possible points of confusion here.
 * Could you explain exactly what you hope to accomplish?
 * You created an “Override” query– which is used to change the output of a core
   WordPress archive page. Was that your intention?

 * Hi Jonathan, I’ m only trying to create a query with wich I would cut in two 
   different lists the normal list of Explanatory Dictionary. Now I tried with the
   Override but I’ m not sure about it….

 * I’ve created a short video showing how to filter Explanatory Dictionary “Terms”
   by their “Dictionary”

 * Hope this helps. Let me know if this doesn’t address your issue, or if there 
   is another problem.

 * Hi mrzpro,
 * Were you able to resolve these issues? I’m not completely sure they are QW related
   considering that Explanatory Dictionary plugin is over 2 years without an update.
 * Thanks,
    Jonathan
