So my question is, how can I do filtering based on multiple filters?

@
arturg - This is one of those things that takes more effort to explain than to do, its probably best done with a video - but here goes
First you need to set whether the filters will be handled as 'this
or that' or 'this
and that' conditions.
You do this with the
Alter Tag Browser->Search type when selecting multiple items (bottom of Tag Browser panel on left) - a setting of
Match any of the items will give a "this
or that" result, whilst a setting of
Match all of the items will give a "this
and that" result.
Assuming you have Book Owner and Book Type custom columns and assuming you selected
Match all of the items -
left click the first filter eg
Book Owner - Wife, then
Shift left click second filter eg
Book Type - Fiction
Now both
Book Owner - Wife and
Book Type - Fiction should be marked with a green '+' and the search bar should show something like
#bookowner:="Wife" and #booktype:="Fiction"
I hope that's right and that it makes sense to you
