How to access Filter & Group?
Accessing Filter & Group is straightforward - simply click on the dropdown menu as shown below, and you'll find Filter & Group among the available options.
How to utilize ACF Filter & Group?
Upon entering Filter & Group, you'll be greeted by the Filter list page. At the top, there's a banner providing information about Filter & Group and its capabilities.
To create a new query, simply click either the button with the label “new”, or the hyperlink down the filters list segment and you’ll be redirected to the Query Builder Page, which should look like this.
Let’s break the page's functionality into pieces to make it easier to understand each segment. First of all, the top of the page contains action buttons: new (creates a completely new filter), duplicate (duplicates current filter), preview (shows a modal that includes all the affected items by the desired filter) and finally save, which saves the current filter.
Next up, it’s time to choose one of the available scopes from the dropdown menu (in this case, the chosen scope is products). We encourage you to give filters descriptive names in order to make it easier to use them later.
If you accidentally make a mistake that makes the query unavailable to run, Filter & Group will warn you about it in the status bar (in case everything seems okay, the All good label will appear).
The selector dropdown menu enables you to choose from 10 distinct selectors (with the total number varying based on the scope). Depending on the selected selector and the logical operators available, the value type is dynamically adjusted. Utilizing the plus button on the right side enables the addition of another statement to the current query.
Note that the individual filters order can be rearranged by simply dragging and dropping them in the desired place. Also, it’s possible to toggle the operator value (AND/OR) by clicking the 
Grouping the queries
In case you have to manipulate more than one segment of queries, there is an option to group filters. To achieve that, you have to select the desired filters and click the “Group by” button.
Previewing affected items
When you're done editing your filter we recommend you preview the affected items to double-check your results before going on to save your filter. Some mistakes might have flown under your radar and this is a great way to catch them.
