# Need a "includes" operator?

 * So I’m using the Advanced Custom Fields plugin “checkbox” to select all states
   which a company does business in. Is there a way to filter on this “states” field
   in Query Wrangler? For example, let’s say I select the check boxes for AZ, TX,
   and WA for one company so now the “states” field includes all 3 values. How would
   I then filter on the “states” field for the value AZ…in this case I would want
   to include/show any posts that included AZ in the “states” field. I’ve tried,
   and I’m not able to filter the results…whats the chance of getting an “includes”
   operator in addition to the “equal to”, “not equal to”, etc. operators?
 * BTW, this plugin is proving to be a life saver for me!!
 * Thanks!
