Magento – Layered attribute navigation hiding when all active

I'm having an issue with my Magento code which is used to modify the layout of the left layered navigation. I'm looking to have all items visible in the navigation even if they are currently active, however; when they are all active, the menu disappears. Did I incorrectly set it up or is there a simple mistake I have made?

Here is my code:

State.phtml

<?php
/**
 * Category layered navigation state
 *
 * @see Mage_Catalog_Block_Layer_State
 */
?>
<?php
$_filters = $this->getActiveFilters();
$_renderers = $this->getParentBlock()->getChild('state_renderers')->getSortedChildren();
$appliedFilters = Mage::getSingleton('catalog/layer')->getState()->getFilters();
?>
<?php if(!empty($_filters)): ?>
<div class="currently">
    <ol>
    <?php foreach ($_filters as $_filter): ?>
        <?php
        $_rendered = false;
        foreach ($_renderers as $_rendererName):
            $_renderer = $this->getParentBlock()->getChild('state_renderers')->getChild($_rendererName);
            if (method_exists($_renderer, 'shouldRender') && $_renderer->shouldRender($_filter)):
                $_renderer->setFilter($_filter);
                echo $_renderer->toHtml();
                $_rendered = true;
                break;
            endif;
        endforeach;
    endforeach; ?>
    </ol>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>

Filter.phtml

<?php
/**
 * Template for filter items block
 *
 * @see Mage_Catalog_Block_Layer_Filter
 */
$count = 0;
?>
<?php foreach ($this->getItems() as $_item):
    $count++;
    ?>
        <?php if ($_item->getCount() > 0): ?>
        <?
        $_filters = $this->getActiveFilters();
        ?>
        <div class="panel-group" id="accordion<? echo $count ?>" role="tablist" aria-multiselectable="true">
            <div class="panel panel-default">
                <div class="panel-heading" role="tab" id="heading<? echo $count ?>">
                    <h4 class="panel-title">
                        <a role="button" data-toggle="collapse" data-parent="#accordion<? echo $count ?>" href="#collapse<? echo $count ?>" aria-expanded="true" aria-controls="collapse<? $count ?>">
                            <dt><?php echo $this->__($_item->getName()) ?></dt>
                        </a>
                    </h4>
                </div>
                <div id="collapse<? echo $count ?>" class="panel-collapse collapse in" role="tabpanel" aria-labelledby="heading<? echo $count ?>">
                    <div class="panel-body">
                        <dd>
                            <input type="checkbox" onclick="window.location.href='<?php echo $this->urlEscape($_item->getUrl()) ?>'"/>
                            <a href="<?php echo $this->urlEscape($_item->getUrl()) ?>">

            </div>
        </div>
        <?php else: ?>
        <?php endif; ?>
<?php endforeach ?>

$_appliedFilters = Mage::getSingleton('catalog/layer')->getState()->getFilters();
