    Add the City to the description area or as a tag

    Is it possible to change the single post php file to also add the "city" to the description area, or add the City as an ad tag?

    The reason I ask is that many site visitors simply type their city into the search bar on the main page. Unfortunately, this search only searches Title, Description and Tags, while ignoring the other fields (the big one being City)

    I have it set up that the City field is mandetory, but only helps out in the refined searches. Which leads to another problem - the Double city search error. If they placed a city in the search bar (and got no results) they would liekly search that same city in the refined search offered on the sidebar. Problem is, the original city search doesnt disapear and now the search is for that city within ads posted in that city.

    (eg. if they searched Boston originally and recieved no results, they then search for Boston in the refined search box = Classipress is now searching for Keyword=Boston in ads from City=Boston. The result is, of course, no items found even if there are ads from City=Boston)

    If the City could be written into the Description again, or be written again as a tag, it would solve the issue entirely.

    Any thoughts?
