How can I implement advanced filtering in ASP.NET MVC?

You can implement advanced filtering in ASP.NET MVC by using query parameters in your controller actions and applying LINQ to filter your data.

Can you give me an example of how to set up the query parameters?

Sure! You can define your action method like this: public ActionResult Index(string searchTerm, string category) and then use these parameters to filter your data.

What if I want to filter by multiple categories?

You can use a list of categories. For example, you can pass a list of category IDs and then filter your data using Contains in LINQ.

How do I handle the UI for these filters?

You can create a form with dropdowns or checkboxes for users to select their filters, and then submit the form to apply the filters.
