[TYPO3-english] Solr faceting and categories: restrict results per (set of) category

[Bert]

Hello Jigal,

Thanks for your reply...

I think I understand what you mean...
Since I would to make condition with TS, I tested the following, based on:
plugin.tx_solr.search.query.filter{
  /*
   formula: myFilter = field:value
  */
}

Test 1:
plugin.tx_solr.search.query.filter{
  pagesOnlyFilter=type:pages
}
Works, only show results from "pages"!

Test 2:
plugin.tx_solr.search.query.filter{
  newsOnly=altType_stringS:Noticias
}
Works, only show results as defined under "Noticias"!

Test 3:
plugin.tx_solr.search.query.filter{
  categoryFilter=category_stringM:963
  #where  '963' is the facetKey (see below)...
}
Does not work, that is, no results found while there are results from 
that category...

Any idea what I am doing wrong in case of category filter?

Thanks again and regards!
