Thread: Advanced Search Widget Plugin for WordPress

Yes...

If you choose categories - sub categories will show up as well ... we are planning to update this plugin and add new features with ajax ..

so, when user will choose categories then sub-categories will activate .. but.. its bit far way to go..

to use price from and to option

choose meta key correctly , ex: if your price meta key cp_price

@ from field choose - meta key : cp_price and leave Meta Key alias field empty -> choose data type ( decimal or numercic ) -> Compare (greater than or Equal)

@ to field -> meta key : cp_price (same) and Meta key alias (cp_price_anything) -> choose data type ( decimal or numercic ) -. Compare ( Less than or equal)

But, please open support topic in forum to get fast support ( http://wedevs.com/support/forum/plug...search-widget/ )

Thanks

@ahikmahin,

would you mind to set up the price search function so it works on your test site? http://www.melbweb.info/wp/

Something seems to go wrong. As a visitor i expect the following for e.g:

- I choose a category, let's say "Audi" from the Top Menu (categories) => All Audi's get listed.

- I enter 5000 in the "max price" search field. Now i should get all Audi's from 0 - 5000 $.

But the results i get don't make sens.

That's how visitors search for things. They don't want first to set "Country" then "Category" then "minimum price" then "maximum price" just to see some Audi's under 5000$

Possible?

I was trying to set it up on my site. Couldn't get it as it should. So i went to your site but couldn't get it their either.

Sorry, i still can't open that site. So i hope that you can help us here as well.

aj, as i said, i can't open that website

Now another question:

On the demo site is search by country included. Default is "United States" Now if i write a word (for e.g: Dandenong) in the first search field and don't make changes at the countries, the result will be "no ads found" unless i also select "Australia".

Can it be set that the country part is like the way categories is showing and says by default something like "- all countries"? That would be great and very usefull!

@samcy -

classipress theme adds extra queries and overrides the plugin. Please find the file /classipress/includes/theme-functions.php and find these lines:



Now you’ve to comment those lines (just add two slashes in those lines):



Cheers..

yes, thanks! I already did this and it solves that problem.

Now this one:

And then i leave you alone

unfortunately, there is no solution for this at this moment samcy.

But, i am going to make a note about this and hopefully come up with a decent solution

As, we already started to work on next version with lots more features -

1. Multi- select

2. Check box

3. 2nd level ajax drop-down (possibly)

4. default text for custom field (yours )

I will keep you on loop once its ready to play with

Thank you.

sounds good, hurry up

hi ahikmahin,
sounds interesting. but can it solve really the advance search problem ?
like if i have category Gaming its sub category Consoles and sub category PS3
i only want to search for PS3 with some keyword and custome fields,
if i select main category from drop down, will it give me option to select sub-category ? and then sub of sub-category ? and appropriate custome fileds selection comes ?????

small example is my website which i did mode hard code in the theme www.alsiarat.com
you select Car Make, then sub category Car Model, and also check the Year Range selection part.
can your search plugin solve this kind of search problems ?

Hi mate,

you done Nice work in your site

Yes, multi-selection will be introduce in next release also, exactly we are planning to make similar like what you done.

- If you select top level category - sub-category will show-up then

We are hoping to release v1.1 in this month ..

Cheers...
