Having single apply option for multiple filters in Refinement Panel of Sharepoint 2013 People Search

Hello,

I am trying to achieve a functionality, wherein i need not click Apply button, each time i select some values from a filter.

In the image below as an OOB functionality, what is happening is, i need to click apply multiple times, based on the number of filters I am using

Please let me know of the possible ways to achieve it, so that i have a single apply, irrespective of the number of filters I am using - I have tried on a few approaches, but nothing clicked

Thanks in advance

Thanks Usama, but the webpart in https://multipleselect.codeplex.com/ is 2010 compatible & due to the XSLT dependency, it is not useful, when I add this webpart to my SharePoint 2013 search center

I am specifically looking for a solution, which will help me get rid of having multiple APPLY options, for each filter, in the Refinement Web Part which comes OOB, with SharePoint 2013 Search

Any help is appreciated

Thanks in advance

Did you get any answer? I'm looking for the same solution.

An even better solution is to get rid of the Apply/Clear links - automatically filter when you check or uncheck the filters.

I was able to bind the Change event of the checkboxes to the Apply links, using the code below.

$('input[type="checkbox"]').live('change', function () {
    $(this).parent().parent().find($('div#submit a:first')).click();
});

However, with that, the check event trigger the Apply button, and return only the checked  filter, so I can't add any more filter.

I would like to have all filter options returned and only the selected filters checked. Is is possible?

Thanks,

I have an Instant Refinement solution here: http://stevemannspath.blogspot.com/2013/07/sharepoint-2013-search-instant.html

Then I built on top of that and created a Cascading Refinement solution outlined here: http://stevemannspath.blogspot.com/2013/07/sharepoint-2013-search-cascading.html
