Body: <p>I've got a question that I can't seem to get fixed all by myself... I've got a search form and each entry has got field with some checkboxes (in this case these are options). Now I'd like to search when they check multiple checkboxes but I can't seem to get that to work...
  I've set up a form in which I'm fetching a parameter and just to test it with 2 checkboxes checked I've split them up in 'week1' and 'week2' like so:</p>
  
  <pre><code>{% set week_search_query =  week1 ~ ' ' ~ week2  %}
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I've tried the same with 'and' and '&amp;' in between the quotes but can't seem to get it to work, while with the 'week1' alone like so:</p>
  
  <pre><code>{% set week_search_query =  week1 %}
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>it works perfectly. (if I print out the content of 'week_search_query' in this case I get </p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>weken2017:41</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>with weken2017 as fieldname and 41 as value). 
  But what I'd like to to is search by 2 checked checkboxes at once as in the first example, so I can:</p>
  
  <pre><code>craft.entries.search(week_search_query)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>All help is welcome, I feel like quite a newbie ATM :-)</p>

Comments.Text: So, I've been able to find part of the solution, and I can find an "AND" solution like so: weken2017:'42, 43'
  Now that I got that working I discovered I actually need an "OR" solution, so the search goes on and all help is still appreciated :-)

  Updating answer as question was updated
  
  As I see it, you want to find any and all entries where the field `weken2017` has either the value `42` or `43`.
  
  Assuming that I have understood this much correctly, `{% set entries = craft.entries.search(['OR', 'weken2017:42', 'weken2017:43']) %}`
