I copy any paste your code exactly, but it’s apparently not able to get the search query so instead it just appends the php code itself to the URL and no search results show of course.

First off–really helpful. Exactly what I wanted for the most part. Thank you.

However, I’m trying to apply this to a number of different post type taxonomies. I have Posts, Pages, and Resources (Case studies, videos, webinars, & white papers). All of the filtering I have working fine with just appending to the URL query like:
&post_type=resource&resource_type=case-studies”

But when it comes to dynamically setting the current status, that’s where I’m not sure how to make this more granular. If I set all post_type to resource, then it shows all as active. How can I modify this so that I can use the current class more specifically?

Thanks again!

Hey Seb this was great and thanks. I have one question. What if you want the link to bring back two post types including a custom post type? for example. http://www.asite.com/?Sfilter&post_type=page&post_type=myposttype. Is that possible with this method? Trying to work it out now. Any help would be appreciated =)
