Drupal Views Search: Creating an Exposed Filter with Checkbox Options Using basic search module and Views to make a search interface. 

When I create an exposed filter for a field with multiple options I only have the option to choose 'dropdown' or 'autocomplete' for the filter settings. 

Is there a way to make the filter display the options to users with checkboxes rather than a dropdown menu?
Better Exposed Filters module should help you.
