Great! Thank you. Okay next step... I figured out how to use the filters in the advance search ( I know, no big feat) But they worked the way I wanted! So now I just have to figure out how to put a search function in that doesn't require me to type [field:intelligence[average]] into the advanced search every time I want to search something. I was thinking a search button at the top of the index page I have or another tab on the side bar that has search options, something simple. I haven't been able to find anything like that. I even tried copying the code from the site and tweaking it. No luck.
