Hi David,
For my holidaysite i have used category for countries and brands for cities. Vistors can now search on country level and filter on city level. I have add an extra field in the database called region. That is working fine, the regions are imported in the database.
What i would like to do now is search for Country -> filter on region -> filter region on city. If tried to do it with the cases in the search page, but i got stuck. Can this be done?
regards,
B.
Hi David,
Thanks for the effort. The approach sounds good
Hi,
There is quite a lot involved in this; as well as modifying search to handle the filtering, the drop-down code is also required.
Bear with me, and I'll test this out a modification to the merchant: brand: search handler that will support multiple fields (including new fields you have added) in the query, for example:
category:Widgets:brand:Widgetco:newfield:Etc:keywords
The benefit of this approach is that none of the follow on links (sort, next page etc.) need to be changed to include new query parameters...
Cheers,
David.
