Hi,

Is it possible to have a layout which updates the filters all at once via a single "apply" button instead of listening to each filter?

The current behavior is a violation of WCAG 2.1 SC 3.2.2 - On Input (A). 

I'm happy to provide my own template a la "Under-Engineered Multiselects", but would need to be able to apply the filters via a button instead of Ajax.

Is that possible?

Thank you!

The most usual case though is the use of 1-2 filters. In that case using a submit button, adds one more step to the user experience, which in most cases will be perceived as redundant. 

I disagree; it makes it clear what will happen and gives the user control over their experience. Better/more accurate expectations are a marker of good UX, and accessibility is a key factor in user experience as well.

It's actually quite disorienting for many people when content changes on selecting an input (even if it's a link, it's styled to look like an input). This also factors into cognitive accessibility.

Also i am not sure if the filters are considered links (actually they are) or other types of interface components. Links seems to be excluded from that rule.

In this case, screen reader users will know they are links, but sighted users will not. WCAG is more than assistive tech :)

In any case, using a submit button is a candidate feature in our list, but cannot give you an answer if and when wil l be implemeted atm.

Thank you!
