Resolved Custom SQL select not working as expected

Trying to filter a user list module by a custom field whose alias is "cluster" and it's a (multiple) Select list but it's not returning any results form when using the following:



cluster = 'Cultural Heritages'

I tested by changing it to:



cluster 'Cultural Heritages'

but still got no results. So i tried filtering by another field (lastname) and this worked okay.
Is my select statement incorrect somehow or is it different for a select list?

Hi,
Checkboxes and Select (with multiple values) store data in JSON format.

so for example for values like music, art and sport it store something like ["music","art","sport"], so in your case the best way is to search with something like:

cluster LIKE "%Cultural Heritages%"
