Then, in each product, you would select the value for each custom field. Then, in the Display>Filters menu, you would create one filter for each custom field with the "submit on click" and the "dynamic display" setting activated. Finally, in the settings of the menu item displaying the listing of all your products, you can check that the "filters" display setting is activated so that it can display the filters at the top of the products listing in a similar fashion.

They should be of a type like radio, or checkbox, or single dropdown, or multiple dropdown, but not "text" or "text area". Could you provide screenshots of the settings of your custom fields ?

So you'll be able to do it with the same instructions I gave to "motocasionweb". I see that you're using HikaShop Essential, however the filter system is only available with the Business edition. So you'll first have to upgrade via the link in the My account>My subscriptions menu of our website.
