 * Hi Ron!
 * On another topic you’ve said: “The plugin is support multiple taxonomies and 
   custom fields at once.”
 * Right now I use only categories as search criteria, but I also need the content
   of custom fields in a second dropdown …
    But I can’t figure out how to do this…
 * For the first dropdown I can choose “categories” in the plugins settings under“
   taxonomies” (works perfectly!). How can I get the custom fields in there for 
   the second dropdown?
    I already managed to get custom taxonomies in there, but
   in this project I definitely can’t use custom taxonomies – just custom fields:-/
 * Right now, I just can use categories for both dropdowns, but that is nearly useless,
   cause both slider show the same criteria – that confuses too much …
 * So I hope yo can tell me how to make use of custom fields …
 * Thanks in advance!
    Tom

 * You will need to look at the Custom Meta Field section right below of the taxonomy
   table. Click on the Add Custom Meta, then you can add your meta field there.
