Does anyone know how or if its possible to use the ‘selectattr’ filter for a multi select in HubDB?

For a normal select list I use something like:

`{% set housename = house_db | selectattr ("housetype.name","equalto","Buckingham") %}`

However I have changed the column type in HubDB to be a multi-select and updating the above filter to the below doesn’t work. Does anyone know what I need to do?

`{% set development = house_db | selectattr ("housetype.name","contains","Buckingham") %}`

I’ve figured it out…

I started by calling in the whole table, then using a secondary loop combined with an if condition manged to filter out the relevant rows.

`{% set house_type_db = hubdb_table_rows(1234567) %}`

```lia-code-sample
{% for row in house_type_db %}
 {% for item in row.development %}
 {% if item.name == "Chapelgarth" %}
 <!-- Show slick slider items -->
 {% endif %}
 {% endfor %}
{% endfor %}

```
